The orb is stored in it, but I haven't figured out how to make full use of it. Now it has finally found its home.

All we need now is a Yuan Ju Dan!

So he told Mi Li what he had discovered. Mi Li was not surprised that he and Daji had a special way of communication, but was surprised by this method of skill upgrading: "Hey, don't skills improve with the improvement of cultivation and actual combat?"

, can it be so easily improved with external objects? If it can be promoted, what else will other practitioners do?"

Zu An smiled bitterly and said: "I guess this method cannot be promoted."

After all, I have drawn Daji and a Valkyrie so far, so this method will definitely be useless for others.

He hurriedly asked Daji to start refining the elixir again. He thought he had succeeded just once, but now that he had experience, it would be easier, but he didn't know that five consecutive batches of elixirs had failed.

What was even more depressing was that when the fifth furnace failed, a puff of black smoke came out of the furnace and exploded to pieces with a bang.

Zu An and Mi Li subconsciously moved their skills to stand in front of them, but Daji was not so lucky. Her fair face was now stained with a lot of black ash, like a big tabby cat.

Zu An subconsciously wanted to help her wipe it off, but Daji turned away and raised her sleeves to wipe her face clean, then continued to sit there quietly.

Mi Li: "..."

Zu An: "..."

Mi Li couldn't help laughing: "You little pervert wants to take advantage of others, but it's a pity that they don't buy it."

Zu An looked depressed: "I really just wiped it."

In fact, he had tried it before. Daji could obey his call and help him fight, but he would never allow himself to have any physical contact with her.

Something happened so suddenly that I forgot about it.

Mi Li looked at Daji with a strange expression: "This maid of yours is really weird. She is so disobedient. Do you want me to help you subdue her and train her?"

Last time she wanted her soul to live in the other person's body - even with her pride, she had to admit that with Daji's appearance and figure, she was qualified to let her live in her body, but she didn't know that she was squeezed out by a mysterious force.

, which made her very unhappy, so when she got the chance, it was like doing it to Daji once.

Hearing her words, Daji shrank back subconsciously. She didn't know if it was an illusion, but there seemed to be a hint of vigilance in her originally dull eyes.

Zu An shook his head: "No, I'm not that perverted, and she has helped me several times during this period. We are comrades-in-arms, not masters and servants."

Since these Valkyries are set not to be physically touched, there is obviously a reason. Forcing them to do something may lead to some unpredictable things happening.

What's more, he's not the kind of person who uses force. Wouldn't it be more interesting to slowly increase his favorability level over time?

Daji on the side turned back to look at him, her eyes and expressions not changing at all.

Mi Li curled her lips and said, "Tch, this woman is just a skin, and your confession of love is in vain."

Zu An shook his head, not wanting to continue arguing about this topic: "By the way, why is my success rate in practicing Juyuan Dan so low? If this continues, the losses will be too great."

You must know that in this night's experiment, he has used seven or eight of the medicinal materials he prepared before, including some precious medicinal materials. According to this usage, it is impossible to practice a few.

When it came to business, Mi Li also put away her joking smile, stared at the broken medicine furnace on the ground for a while and said: "I just looked at your steps for refining the medicine, and there were no big mistakes. I think the problem is.

This medicine furnace is just an ordinary pharmacist's furnace for refining medicine, and alchemy requires a special alchemy furnace. Finding a good alchemy furnace should solve your problem."

Zu An asked: "Where should I find an alchemy furnace?"

Mi Li rolled her eyes: "I have been sleeping a while ago, you ask me who should I ask? But from what you mentioned before, I think there should be someone at the Royal Academy in the capital."

Zu An's heart moved. He thought of Jiang Luofu and the Xie sisters. Through their relationship, he wondered if he could get an alchemy furnace.

However, the extremely vicissitudes of Jijiu's eyes appeared in his mind again, and his mood suddenly became solemn. He still didn't know why the other party deliberately released the water in the first place.

After discussing with Mi Li for a while, I couldn't figure out the other party's purpose.

"It's useless for you to think about this now. The level difference is too far. It's better to think about the things you should be concerned about." Mi Li brought him back to reality. "Before, you sold yourself to get the information from that Hu Meizi."

Come out and take a look.”

"What does it mean to sell oneself? What we mean is to each get what he needs." Zu An looked depressed. When she said this, he felt that he had suffered a big loss from Liu Ning.

He took out the booklet Liu Ning handed him before leaving, which recorded the confessions and investigation results of the palace maids, eunuchs and guards who "discovered" that he and the Crown Princess were having an affair that day.

The two of them read the entire article and found that the original discoverers had mysteriously disappeared.

Most of the others rushed there after hearing the news, and it can even be seen from their confessions that Shi Jun also got the news on the way and rushed there.

"Did I make a mistake?" Zu An frowned. If the mastermind behind the scenes was not Shi Jun, then who would it be?

"Look at this record quickly." Mi Li said, pointing to a paragraph in the booklet.

"What?" Zu An leaned over and suddenly smelled a faint feminine fragrance.

Damn it, she is obviously a soul body, why does she smell so good?

Zu An subconsciously looked sideways and saw that the lines of Mi Li's profile were like an outline, extremely smooth and delicate. Because he lowered his head to read the brochure, his hair was slightly spread out and hanging down. Matching that perfect profile, when

What a beautiful picture.

"If you look again, I'll pluck out your eyes." Mi Li said coldly without looking back.

Zu An was startled and quickly looked away and looked at the booklet.

"This..." Originally, he had just looked here and didn't pay much attention to it, but when Mi Li said it, he looked again and discovered something unusual.

The information on the missing people has one thing in common, that is, they either worked as errands near Xuanwu Gate, or they all visited Xuanwu Gate not long ago.

An electric light flashed in Zu An's mind. He could not find Xinrui's body in the palace before, but the records of entering and exiting the palace showed that she had not left the palace. He had thought that Xinrui had been dismembered and taken out through another door. He was trapped in

The vast investigation work is underway.

But now that I think about it, I seem to have overlooked one person.

What if Xuanwu Sect Sima Ouwu and Xinrui are in the same group?

He was responsible for guarding the Xuanwu Gate, so he naturally had the opportunity to tamper with the records of entering and exiting the palace, and then everyone was led astray in the direction of their investigation.

Thinking of this, he couldn't wait any longer, put on the mask of the embroidered messenger and rushed out in a hurry.

"Oops!" As soon as he walked out, he bumped into a soft body, and the other party let out a crisp exclamation.

"Bold!" At this moment, a startled and angry scolding sound came from the side, followed immediately by the sound of various weapons being unsheathed.
