Chapter 112 Think twice before you act
The environment there is extremely bad, with raging snow and biting cold, and surrounded by powerful monsters. It is simply a forbidden zone for life.
Xue Yameng was afraid that Shen Lang would go there impulsively, so she persuaded him again: "Even if you want to go to the Monster Domain, now is not a good time. The Ten Sects Competition will start soon. This is a rare event that brings together young talents from all sides. If you go to the Monster Domain now, you don’t know when you can come back."
Once you miss this Ten Sects Competition, you don’t know how long you have to wait for such an opportunity to stand out and become famous.
Xue Lingling also knew that Shen Lang valued friendship and loyalty. Just saying this would probably make it difficult to dispel his idea of going to the Monster Domain.
He changed his words at the side: "Shen Lang, even if you enter the demon domain and kill gods and Buddhas, and have a smooth journey. But what if the demon beast guarding the thousand-year-old ice spirit milk is greedy and doesn't leave a drop of the thousand-year-old ice spirit milk, then you went there in vain?"
"And the situation in the demon domain is complicated and changeable, and no one knows what variables will happen. Maybe you have gone through untold hardships to reach the Ten Thousand Years Snow Mountain, but found that there is nothing you want at all, wouldn't it be a loss?"
After being persuaded one after another, Shen Lang's high emotions slowly slowed down, as if he was poured with a basin of cold water, and he sobered up a lot in an instant.
"You are right, if you want to seize the treasures of heaven and earth, you must not only have strength, but also luck. It is indeed inappropriate for me to act impulsively like this." Shen Lang's tone was low, and his expression was full of helplessness and frustration.
"With my current strength of the second stage of the Spiritual Transformation, if I rush into the demon realm, I will probably become food for those high-level demon beasts. Not only will I not be able to save my senior brother, but I will also lose my life."
"Forget it, I'd better look through the ancient books to see if there is a pill recipe with the same effect?" Shen Lang sighed.
"If I can't make the Hunyuan Pill, I can make a substitute. As long as I can cure the eighth senior brother's Dantian, I'm willing to try any method." Shen Lang clenched his fists, as if to encourage himself.
Xue Yameng said quickly: "Shen Lang, don't lose heart, we will definitely find a way. Lingling and I will do our best to help you."
Xue Lingling also nodded: "Yes, let's work together. Even if we have to turn the Blood Sword Sect's library upside down, we will help you find the right recipe."
Shen Lang looked at them gratefully: "Thank you."
Xue Yameng smiled and said: "Why should we thank each other? This is what we should do."
Xue Lingling also said: "That's right, let's act quickly."
Shen Lang nodded: "Okay, let's go to the library now."
Zhou Xueer and Zhou Kai have been paying attention to Shen Lang. They have many spies under their command. After a little effort, they found out that Shen Lang is now looking for the thousand-year-old ice spirit milk and the recipe for repairing the dantian.
After hearing the news, the two were as excited as if they had grabbed a life-saving straw.
Zhou Xueer's eyes flashed with a cunning look, and she said, "Brother, this is a good opportunity for us. We can use this opportunity to set a trap for Shen Lang."
The two people who were worried about how to set a trap for Shen Lang immediately thought of an idea and could not wait to start preparing to implement their conspiracy.
The next morning, Shen Lang, who was still meditating and practicing, suddenly opened his eyes, and a gleam of light flashed in his eyes.
Someone moved the ban he set outside the door.
Before Shen Lang asked, the person outside the door said in a delicate voice: "Brother Shen Lang, I have something to ask you!"
Shen Lang frowned slightly, and a wave of annoyance surged in his heart. It was really unlucky that the Zhou family came to the door early in the morning.
He snorted coldly and thought to himself: What kind of tricks are these Zhou family members doing?
He jumped in the air, and his figure flashed, and he was outside the door.
"What's the matter?" Shen Lang's tone was slightly cold, his eyes were like torches, and he stared at the person in front of him.
Seeing Shen Lang's cold look and impatient tone, Zhou Xueer was furious and felt humiliated.
Although she was a concubine in the family, she was beautiful and had a good relationship with Zhou Kai and Zhou Ming, the favored legitimate sons. The people below followed suit and all praised her.
On weekdays, she was flattered wherever she went.
Therefore, Zhou Xueer was always surrounded by people, arrogant and domineering, and developed a self-centered personality.
This was the first time she encountered someone who was so indifferent to her and gave her a cold face.
If it weren't for the future plan, Zhou Xueer would have walked away long ago, and she wouldn't be bullied here.
She suppressed her anger in her heart, tried to squeeze out a smile, and said: "Brother Shen Lang, don't be so fierce, I came here with sincerity this time."
However, Shen Lang remained unmoved, just looking at her coldly, as if his eyes were saying: If you have something to say, say it quickly, if you have something to fart, fart quickly.
Zhou Xueer tried her best to force out a gentle and warm smile, and said coquettishly: "It is said that Brother Shen Lang is humble, generous, and broad-minded. He is a man, so he will not still hold a grudge against the little thing before, right?"
Her voice is sweet, and her eyes are deliberately flattering.
"If you have something to say, just say it." Shen Lang had no expression on his face, and his voice was as cold as ice.
He stared straight at Zhou Xueer, as if he could see through her mind.
She was being attentive for no reason and flattering him, so she must have bad intentions.
Shen Lang snorted in his heart. He knew Zhou Xueer too well. There must be some ulterior motives behind such a pretentious attitude.
Zhou Xueer bit her lip, a trace of grievance flashed in her eyes, and said: "Brother Shen Lang, there was such a big storm before, and the head of the family and the old lady had already severely educated my brother, and repeatedly told me to come and apologize to you."
"But...but my elder brother can't bring himself to do that, so...so he asked me to come and tell you first."
"Heh!" Shen Lang smiled coldly, his eyes full of sarcasm, "What about him? He is really capable of letting you, a woman, be a lobbyist!"
Zhou Xueer brought out the lines that she and Zhou Kai had already discussed in private.
"My elder brother was publicly scolded by the head of the family before, and it was inevitable that he was embarrassed, so he entrusted me to apologize to elder brother Shen Lang. He knew that he did something wrong before, and he regretted it in his heart, but he was too embarrassed to come in person, so he asked me to express his apology to you on his behalf."
After that, Zhou Xueer stretched out her hand and handed a box with spiritual power to Shen Lang.
Shen Lang glanced at it lightly, but did not reach out to take it.
"What is this?" Shen Lang's voice was still cold, his face did not change at all, and his eyes were full of suspicion and vigilance.
"My old lady heard that Brother Shen Lang has been looking for some ancient books on alchemy recipes recently, and he found this book of alchemy recipes from her dowry. This ancient book of alchemy recipes is the old lady's treasure at the bottom of her box. She has always regarded it as a treasure and would not show it to anyone easily."
