"Probably, someone must have rescued her." But she doesn't know where that person is. "Let's get out of here first. Mark has more than twenty bodyguards, armed with both light and heavy weapons. They're not easy to deal with."
However, to Luo Ya's surprise, when she ran downstairs, all the bodyguards she encountered remained motionless, presumably serving the person who saved her.
From upstairs to downstairs, and then into the garden, Luo Ya saw ten bodyguards, all of whom were as still as puppets.
Luo Ya was very surprised and couldn't figure out what was going on. She ran all the way to the outside of the courtyard, but no one stopped her. In fact, she didn't even see a moving person. When she was outside the courtyard, she looked back and caught a glimpse of a black-haired, yellow-skinned Asian man by the trees outside the courtyard wall. However, he was about a hundred meters away from the villa and was not very important. She figured that even someone passing by wouldn't know what was happening inside the villa from that distance.
Luo Ya didn't suspect him, and in her panic, she hurriedly ran out, as it was really dangerous there. She was still a little shaken.
Zhou Xuan's heart skipped a beat when Luo Ya glanced at him, but fortunately, Luo Ya, a half-saint, didn't suspect him. She just glanced at him and then quickly ran away, leaving him feeling relieved.
"Nothing much," Zhou Xuan strolled along the street, not feeling like there was anything he needed to buy, and since he didn't know anyone there, he went home after a while. Once home, he went to the backyard and plugged the pipe. Fu Yuhai really did check it from time to time, which was quite something.
At this point, no more poisonous snakes or insects arrived, and no one else knew, not even the bodyguards of the Fu family or Wang Sao. What they drank was something that grew in the corner of the courtyard.
Zhou Xuan examined the He Shou Wu plants again; they were still growing, and the stems in the soil had grown slightly larger. After thinking for a moment, he gathered some more supernatural energy and poured it into the four He Shou Wu plants. He would see how they grew tomorrow. If using supernatural energy to promote the growth of these plants could have a significant effect, he might as well use some good things to cultivate them in the future, such as ginseng, lingzhi, and other precious medicinal herbs. Cultivating medicinal herbs at home behind closed doors was much better than searching for them in the deep mountains.
That night, the Fu family members were not as excited as the previous night. Fu Yuhai also resumed his usual routine, except that he added a bed in his room to put Si Zhou in his room to sleep with him, which made the old man very happy.
That night, Zhou Xuan woke up from his sleep and suddenly felt that the pill in his left wrist had changed. It seemed to have a stronger connection with his body, and its color had become more golden.
Zhou Bin glanced at Fu Ying, who was still fast asleep. Her face was pretty and fair, and her skin was smoother than before. He had a sudden thought: maybe it was the He Shou Wu soup she drank today that had worked. Today's soup was made from He Shou Wu that had been enhanced by his superpowers. It was a thousand-year-old He Shou Wu, while the soup from the day before was only thirty years old. The difference in efficacy should be huge.
Looking at the time, it was only four in the morning. There was still some time before dawn, but J was in such a good state that he couldn't sleep. His superpowers seemed to be overflowing, like a full kettle. He immediately pointed and turned the glass cups on the table into golden cups. In the night light, these golden cups shimmered with an unusual glow.
Zhou Xuan could clearly feel that his superpower had evolved further. In terms of quantity, his superpower seemed to have reached its peak, because he could directly absorb and convert solar energy. The inexhaustible energy had brought his superpower to a climax. However, in terms of quality, there hadn't been much progress. But now he felt that his superpower was extremely pure. Before, it was like the Yellow River, somewhat turbid, although it was vast. But now, the water of this river seemed to have become crystal clear, without a trace of impurity. It was as clear and lovely as a cloudless blue sky.
Zhou Xuan didn't know what kind of strange effects his superpower would have after it evolved, but his superpower was already sufficient for now. He no longer relied on it as much as before, so he didn't pursue the quality of his superpower. However, since he had nothing else to do, Zhou Xuan used his superpower to condense a beam and probe. This test showed that the purified superpower had really evolved a lot. The condensed superpower could now reach four hundred meters away. This surprised Zhou Xuan a bit!
Previously, each increase in his superpower was limited. His detection range, once condensed into a beam, was only around 200 meters, which became the longest his ability could detect. "After that," Zhou Xuan even thought, "this is my limit, and I'll never break through again." But now, things have changed dramatically, and the increase in power is beyond his expectations—it has doubled! His superpower can now detect distances of 400 meters! This is truly astonishing. You could say that, centered on him, he can detect distances of 800 meters in all directions—approaching a kilometer! No matter what obstacles he faces, within this range, Zhou Xuan can completely control anything. "I can make you die if I want you to die, and I can make you live if I want you to live!"
With such a significant increase in energy, Zhou Xuan didn't know what other differences his abilities would bring. However, he couldn't test them at the moment. It was as if he couldn't even see the limit of how deep he could dive underwater. Before, when he was bare-handed, he could dive to a depth of one thousand meters, but now, how deep could he dive?
There must have been an increase. Looking at the several golden cups he had transformed on the table, he wondered how many days those golden cups would last before transforming back. Finally, dawn broke, and Fu Ying was still fast asleep. Zhou Xuan didn't disturb her. He quietly got up and went to the yard to take a look. The fruits of the four He Shou Wu plants had grown several tens of centimeters longer, which made Zhou Xuan feel even more attracted to his superpower!
The air in the courtyard was extremely fresh, so Zhou Xuansuo sat on Fu Yuhai's recliner, absorbing the fresh air and letting his supernatural abilities disperse aimlessly.
Around 8:30 or 9:00, almost everyone in the family got up. Fu Tianlai and Fu Yuhai were more careful today. After washing up in the bathroom, they excitedly went downstairs.
In the living room, the father and son looked at each other with great excitement. They looked even more comical today. Fu Tianlai and Fu Yuhai's white hair had turned completely black, their wrinkles had lessened, and their skin was smooth. Even Fu Ying was staring blankly at her grandfather and great-grandmother!
These two old men don't look like they're over 100 years old at all. One is 102 years old. Now, Fu Yuhai looks like he's only 60, and Fu Tianlai looks like he's only 40. In Fu Ying's memory, he looks just like her father, Fu Jue. They might as well be called brothers.
Zhou Cangsong and Jin Xiumei were also stunned. They both looked two years younger, with smoother skin, fewer wrinkles, and their white hair turned black!
When Wang Sao came in, she was also stunned. Her face was almost fifty years old, but today she looked like a woman in her thirties. At this moment, everyone can be sure that these strange effects must be due to the soup that Zhou Xuan cooked!
Aunt Wang placed the plate on the table and said, "Master, Sister Yingying, son-in-law, father-in-law and mother-in-law, this is the leftover broth from yesterday's soup made by Son-in-law Sun. He asked me to add water and boil it again, but it looks a bit weak. I poured out the broth; you can have it as a breakfast drink!"
Although the taste was far inferior to breakfast or drinks, everyone picked up their glasses without hesitation and drank them down in one gulp.
After putting down the cup, Fu Tianlai frowned and said, "Zhou Xuan, this tonic soup of yours is too potent! Now I'm too afraid to go out. People at the company might think I'm an imposter. I've had white hair for over ten years, and now it's completely black! The worst part is, the wrinkles on my face are gone. Who will still think I'm Fu Tianlai?"
Fu Yuhai, also looking worried, said, "Yingying, it's a good thing you're all home. You know I'm still your grandfather. If you weren't home, and we were in this state, wouldn't you treat me like your grandpa when you come back?"
He shook his head again, saying, "You wouldn't even treat him like your grandfather. Your grandfather had a full head of white hair. Now your great-grandfather's hair and beard have all turned black. How can he face people like that?"
Fu Tianlai and his son were both worried. Zhou Xuan couldn't help but laugh and feel helpless. Normally, which other rich people wouldn't want this? This is something that money can't buy. With this effect, even the super-rich would be willing to spend hundreds of millions to buy this!
Fu Ying shook her head with a wry smile and said, "Grandpa, Grandma, if my parents and second aunt come back, they definitely won't recognize you. My second aunt might even mistake Grandpa for my dad!"
Fu Tianlai stood there stunned for a long time before shouting, "Zhou Xuan, I don't care anymore! I'm not going to the company. You can manage it yourself. If I go, I'll be laughed at to death, and I'll have to have my identity checked by the security department. This is all your fault. I really don't care anymore. From now on, I'll just stay at home and travel around with your great-grandmother to avoid being laughed at by others!"
Zhou Xuan opened his mouth but couldn't speak. Well, this made everyone in his family look younger, but it also brought him a lot of trouble.
Fu Ying smiled and stroked her face, saying, "Grandpa, I'm not going to get involved anyway. I'm not cut out for it. Having two kids is enough for me. Zhou Xuan, your nourishing soup is really good! Make some more; it's better than any cosmetics I buy!" Zhou Xuan hesitated for a moment, then said, "Making soup is no problem for me. I can make it for you for a few more days. But as for work, Grandpa, please don't make things difficult for me. I'm not cut out for it. I'm not interested in management. I like to live a free and easy life!"
Fu Tianlai smiled and said, "I know. I was just trying to scare you. I went to the company to make arrangements the day after you came back. I had already hired a professional manager before that. I basically don't handle company affairs anymore. Otherwise, how could I have been so indifferent these past few days?"
Zhou Xuan was relieved. He then went to the backyard, dug up another He Shou Wu (Polygonum multiflorum), washed it, and made soup with it. In this way, one plant every two days, "a week later," all four thousand-year-old He Shou Wu plants were used up in soup.
However, Fu Tianlai and Fu Yuhai's appearances did not change much. Zhou Xuan guessed that this might be the same as his superpower. After the improvement, if he used his superpower again, it would have no effect. "This He Shou Wu may be the same." After drinking the soup made from the first one that had become a thousand years old, the effect had reached its peak. The last four only played a consolidating role, and there was no further enhancement effect.
That's possible. Otherwise, with Zhou Xuan's abilities, as long as he finds ginseng or Polygonum multiflorum seeds, he can cultivate them again. In that case, he could produce as many as he wanted. If every Polygonum multiflorum seed had that effect, wouldn't it mean that people would be rejuvenated and turned back into babies?
While the rest of the family didn't benefit much, Zhou Xuan felt that his own was different. His superpower was as pure as y, turning into a warm current, transparent and without any impurities, so pure that it was indescribable.
For the past week or so, I've been focusing on that He Shou Wu (Polygonum multiflorum), but once I finished making the soup, I had no more worries. I didn't even care about Fu Yu Hai anymore, since there was nothing left there and I didn't need it.
However, Zhou Xuan was surprised to find that the golden glasses on the table, which had been transformed a week ago, were still shining brightly and had not changed at all when he got up!
He had previously understood that his special ability could only stabilize the substance transformed into gold with a gold composition for about 24 hours, after which it would revert to its original state.
These cups, since their transformation at dawn that day, have remained gold for eight cycles, or one hundred and ninety-two hours, and have not reverted to their original glass form.
Zhou Xuan then realized that he hadn't paid attention before, but was surprised that his special ability could transform matter into gold and how long it would take.
What's certain now is that it won't revert back to its original state for eight days. Zhou Xuan isn't surprised or excited; he's not short of money. Even if it doesn't revert back after turning into gold, there's nothing to be excited about. Gold is valuable, but you can't eat it. It does have value in certain situations, but for Zhou Xuan, its value isn't significant right now.
Of course, this was just Zhou Xuan's quiet thought. If it were anyone on Earth, they would be overjoyed. "If he could convert all material things into gold, then he would undoubtedly be the richest person in the world." No super-rich person could compare to him. Every business has risks, and there is always the possibility of losing or making a profit, but only gold is currently the most valuable thing in the world.
Basically, it can be said that gold is the most valuable asset in history and still is today. If there is someone who can turn lead into gold, then who else has such the ability to make money?
Zhou Xuan didn't know how long the transformed substance could be maintained, but he didn't have the mind to think about it now. He thought, "Why don't I go to the market and see if I can buy some ginseng, lingzhi or other seeds, or cultivate some other medicinal materials?"
