212: Jade Talisman

"Just as I thought."

Su Ran gave a bitter smile, it was exactly as she had suspected.

Since Su Can could display such terrifying divine abilities, his alchemy skills were definitely not as simple as they appeared.

He had probably long surpassed the realm of what mortals could comprehend.

Just looking at the effects of the previous pills, they weren't simply some kind of herbal beauty treatment.

No matter how amazing an herbal beauty treatment was, it couldn't compare to even one percent of the Body Strengthening Pill she had taken.

"If that's the case, then why did you go to all this trouble to come with me to this remote mountain forest and waste time?"

Su Ran looked at Su Can with a puzzled expression, not quite understanding.

"There's no helping it, a hero is always swayed by beauty."

Su Can sighed dramatically, shaking his head.

He naturally wouldn't admit that before coming, he actually knew nothing about alchemy.

The reason he was now omniscient and omnipotent, proficient in both alchemy and artifact refining, was entirely due to her invitation, which led him to this incredible opportunity.

But Su Ran didn't know the trick behind it, and her face immediately flushed when she heard him.

Su Can secretly chuckled, then continued, "Besides, at that time, our relationship wasn't like this. I couldn't just arrogantly tell you that I'm a cultivator with heaven-defying abilities, asking you to be with me and I'd solve your problems, could I?"

"And now?" Su Ran spat, both annoyed and pleased.

"Now, of course, it's different. Now you've become my woman, and you've witnessed my abilities. As long as you're willing, I can solve it in minutes. I can even help you resolve your Su Family's issues with just a wave of my hand."

"Of course, all of this depends on your wishes. Otherwise, we can just treat this as a scenic honeymoon trip."

Su Can smiled, pulled Su Ran into his arms, and immediately leaned in to kiss her.

Su Ran let out a soft moan, her body instantly going limp from Su Can's masculine aura, and she hung onto him.

"Sister Ran, please consider what I just said. Whatever decision you make, I will respect your wishes!"

"Now, I'll break this formation in front of us and see the true face of this place. It'll be worth the trip!"

Su Can's kiss was brief. He patted Su Ran, whose eyes were a bit hazy, and said with a serious expression.

Hearing this, Su Ran's eyes quickly cleared. She whispered, "Okay, then you break the formation first. I also want to see the legendary cultivator's cave dwelling."

"Mm, stand back a bit first."

Su Can patted Su Ran's back.

Su Ran obeyed, stepping back a few meters, watching with a mixture of anticipation and excitement.

"Oh, right! Take this. If anything unexpected happens, it can protect you at a crucial moment."

Su Can took out the plain jade pendant. "This is called a Body Protection Jade Talisman. I've inscribed a formation into it. In times of danger, it can automatically protect its owner!"

This jade pendant was originally a Body Protection Jade Talisman that Su Can had refined in his free time, intending to give it to Su Ran.

He simply took it out a step earlier now.

"Body Protection Jade Talisman?"

Su Ran's eyes lit up. "Are you really giving it to me?"

"Nonsense. This jade pendant was originally refined by me for your protection."

Su Can rolled his eyes. "Understand one thing now: you are my woman. If I don't give this to you, who would I give it to?"

"Ah? Is that so?"

Su Ran loved Su Can's domineering manner. Although her face didn't show it, her heart was sweet.

Without waiting for Su Can to say another word, she quickly took the jade talisman, holding it in her hand with immense joy, looking very fond and treasuring it.

Seeing her reaction, Su Can smiled knowingly.

Then he turned around, his expression becoming serious.

Su Can took a step forward, raised his hand and clenched it. The xiuchun blade, which was placed in the Jade Cicada Space, appeared in his hand out of thin air, and his aura immediately changed, becoming sharp and formidable.
