557: Qi Restraining Pill

Qi Restraining Pill

"Fool."2

Lu Zhou snorted and went to scoop rice.

"You haven't cooked for too long. The taste is getting worse."

Shangguan Dian tasted a piece of flat bean and evaluated softly.

Lu Zhou's face darkened. "Then why didn't you stay behind to cook and let me fetch the children?"

It was already good that they had food. He even dared to complain about this and that. This fellow was really becoming more capable.

Back then, he did not even dare to go west when he said to go east.

Now, he would feel uncomfortable if he did not go against him for a day.

"I'm just telling the truth." Shangguan Dian continued, "Who asked you to say you would go out and buy ingredients first?"

Lu Zhou snorted coldly. "It's up to you to eat it."

Shangguan Dian continued fearlessly, "It's not to the extent that I can't swallow it. It's just that it's indeed much worse than your previous culinary skills."

Lu Zhou's chopsticks were already curved.

Lu Sheng looked at this and then that and shook her head helplessly.

Shangguan Dian seemed to have noticed that the atmosphere was amiss and hurriedly corrected himself. "However, this soup is really good. It's delicious and better than mine."

When Lu Zhou heard that, he retracted his gaze and continued eating expressionlessly.

Lu Sheng smiled and secretly looked at Shangguan Dian, as if saying "At least you know your place."

After dinner, Lu Sheng started to ask Shangguan Dian how to conceal demonic aura.

Shangguan Dian immediately gave her a green pearl.

"This is a Qi Restraining Pill. It can hide the demonic aura on a demon. Just pass this to him."

Lu Sheng was surprised. "How did Uncle Shangguan know who I wanted to give it to?"

She indeed wanted to help Teng Shu. After all, he was a loyal demon.

Moreover, it was obvious that he loved Jiang Jie a lot.

In order not to let other cultivators discover Teng Shu and for the sake of Jiang Jie, she wanted to help him.

Shangguan Dian raised an eyebrow. "Other than me, the only other demon beside you is that tree demon we met today. If you're not asking this for him, who else could it be?"

"Uncle Shangguan is wise!" Lu Sheng smiled. "I'll keep that pearl then."

Anyway, Shangguan Dian had no use for it.

"Go ahead. If it's not enough, I still have some here."

As he spoke, a box filled with green pearls appeared in his hand.

Lu Sheng was speechless.

She knew that Shangguan Dian was not short of these things, but she did not expect this…

"Here, I've given them all." Shangguan Dian placed the box in her arms and said lightly, "Take them. Perhaps you can even discuss a business with the demons of this world in the future."

"That makes sense!"

Lu Sheng nodded and smiled. "Then, I won't stand on ceremony!"

"You're saying it like you were polite before."

Lu Zhou walked over and placed a box of washed fruits on the coffee table.

Lu Sheng raised her eyebrows and placed the box of pearls into the Space Bracelet.

The next day.

After Lu Sheng and Chu Yan reached school, they did not return to the classroom directly. Instead, they went to find Teng Shu.

"Why are you looking for me?"

Although he knew that Lu Sheng did not intend to harm him, every time he saw Lu Sheng and thought of the Demon King from yesterday, Teng Shu could not help but feel nervous.

"Teacher Teng, don't be afraid."

Lu Sheng smiled faintly. She took out the green pearl that Shangguan Dian gave her and handed it to Teng Shu. "This is for you."

"Qi Restraining Pill?! For me?"

Teng Shu looked at Lu Sheng in surprise. He could not believe that she would give this to him.

One had to know that this was a rare Qi Restraining Pill. It was the highest-level pill among the demons. Ordinary demons like them could only drool over it.
