Chapter 63 The protagonist is going crazy

Apologies for the oversight. Here's the corrected version with the character named Long Aotian:

Long Aotian gasped as he looked at Hun Tian Gang.

"Senior, the junior doesn't mean anything else, the junior is just afraid that the senior will be deceived by treacherous people," said Lu Chengwen.

Lu Chengwen said, "Forget it, the combined intelligence of the two of us cannot match even a single hair of the senior."

Hun Tian Gang said, "Hmm, makes sense."

Long Aotian was about to cry in urgency, "Senior, I..."

"Alright, alright," Hun Tian Gang interrupted, "Both of you have fallen so miserably, but there's only one Revitalizing Bone and Health-Preserving Pill. Here's the deal, I'll ask you a question, and whoever answers correctly gets to eat it."

"Senior, please ask," said Lu Chengwen.

Hun Tian Gang looked at Lu Chengwen and asked, "I'll ask you, what is one plus one?"

Lu Chengwen rubbed his chin, pretending to think, "Equals... two?"

Hun Tian Gang exclaimed, "Oh! A genius!"

Long Aotian became anxious, "Senior, he's..."

Hun Tian Gang interrupted, "Don't worry, I'll ask you, what is one plus one?"

Long Aotian was shocked.

Damn, word for word!

"Equals two."

"Nonsense!" Hun Tian Gang retorted, "That answer has been said by someone else, are you even serious!"

Long Aotian thought to himself, I'm injured, otherwise I would kick you if I had to. Old geezer, just give it directly, aren't you just playing around?

"Senior, there's no other result for one plus one! The junior disagrees!" Long Aotian argued.

Hun Tian Gang coldly laughed, "Let me make it clear to you."

Turning to Lu Chengwen, he asked, "What is one plus one?"

Lu Chengwen replied with his eyes closed, "Nine thousand one hundred twenty-four, somewhere between nine thousand one hundred twenty-four and nine thousand one hundred twenty-five."

Excitedly, Hun Tian Gang slapped his thigh, "Wow, what a genius!"

Long Aotian went crazy.

How is that even possible!? Nine thousand one hundred twenty-four!? You guys... are you even a bit accurate!?

Hun Tian Gang looked at Long Aotian, shaking his head regretfully, "Are you stupid? One plus one equals nineteen? Are you even serious saying that!"

Long Aotian widened his eyes, pointing at Lu Chengwen, "He answered fourteen, why didn't you say anything?"

"I agree!"

Hun Tian Gang asked Lu Chengwen, "Now, it's your turn, what is one plus one?"

Lu Chengwen, with closed eyes, said, "A triangle."

Hun Tian Gang commented, "See, if you want to flatter me, you should do it like this!"

Long Aotian cried.

Unfair!

What kind of thinking do these two have!? What nonsense!

Don't say I can't compete with you, I can't even understand what you're saying!

How can two idiots meet and have such a bizarre chemical reaction!?

Hun Tian Gang looked at Lu Chengwen, "Kid, for your attitude towards me, I'll give you this Revitalizing Bone and Health-Preserving Pill!"

"Thank you, Senior!"

Lu Chengwen took the pill with a smile, but he glanced at the figure of Hua Xuening lying unconscious over there and felt a stir in his heart.

[Hua Xuening is a good girl. It's just because her spiritual sense is sealed, so her mind isn't very bright.]

[She bears deep hatred, is willing to associate with demons, and shouldn't die here.]

With a sigh, Lu Chengwen said, "Senior, why don't we give this pill to Miss Hua over there?"

"Hmm?" Hun Tian Gang was puzzled, "Why?"

"We're both men, this... in such situations, it's a matter of life and death. She's a girl, for men to take the pill and live while letting a girl die, I can't do that."

Hun Tian Gang gave a thumbs-up, "Righteous!"

Lu Chengwen climbed over with difficulty, and gently turned Hua Xuening's body, feeling how soft she was.

Just as he was about to feed her the pill, Hun Tian Gang interrupted, "Hey hey hey, are you trying to kill her?"

"Huh?"

Hun Tian Gang continued, "She's unconscious right now, if you stuff the pill in her mouth, will she chew? If she swallows it directly, her throat muscles won't work, she'll choke to death."

"What should we do then?"

"Crush it and feed her."

"Oh."

"Hey! You guys..."

Long Aotian was about to intervene, but Hun Tian Gang extended his hand, directly pulling him over, "They're saving someone, what trouble are you causing?"

"She's my maidservant, if anyone should save her, it should be me!"

"Stop making excuses, do you have a Revitalizing Bone and Health-Preserving Pill? From your recent behavior, you wanted to take it for yourself, never thinking about that girl. Do you think I don't know you?"

In reality, Hua Xuening had already awakened.

She just couldn't move or speak.

She heard everything clearly, the intense bickering between Lu Chengwen and Long Aotian, Lu Chengwen's inner thoughts, including his intention to crush the pill for himself now...

She heard it all.

Her spiritual sense was sealed?

I've known about this for a long time.

Initially, it was personally sealed by one of the twelve main gods of the great organization. He even told me that the one to unlock the seal would be my master for life.

I've always hoped that the young master could help me unlock the seal, but the way to unlock it is too embarrassing.

And the young master's martial arts skills are not yet mature...

The four great shadow assassins, each of them had the most important thing sealed, waiting for the young master to unseal them.

But the young master cannot achieve the realm of the top four gates.

So, the four shadow beautiful girls must all maintain their innocence for the young master.

When the seal is lifted, we will all undergo a collective transformation.

And the young master will ascend like a dragon riding the wind.

This is our fate, and it is also our choice—道.

How could Lu Chengwen know about these things?

This bastard, his smooth talk is annoying.

But why is it he who wants to save me at this moment?

Lu Chengwen chewed the Revitalizing Bone and Health-Preserving Pill. As soon as he saw Hua Xuening looking at him with an upright gaze, her eyes unfriendly, he nervously swallowed some of it.

Quickly, he nervously held the remaining pill residue in his mouth and said incoherently, "It's not intentional, bear with me, I'll feed you the medicine, and you'll be fine."

Saying that he embraced Hua Xuening and, without hesitation, kissed her, no, fed her.

Meanwhile, the old man was still instructing, "Use your tongue, use your tongue! Many of her oral functions are almost gone, it's difficult for her to swallow by herself! Oh dear, you're so clumsy, what's with your shyness? Give her more saliva, it can help her stimulate muscle instincts for swallowing. Oh my, just feed her the medicine, why are you touching her chest? If you can't do it, move aside, I'll do it!"

Hua Xuening was fed the medicine by Lu Chengwen in a humiliating manner.

Tears of humiliation fell.

After they separated, Lu Chengwen wiped the corners of his mouth, feeling somewhat embarrassed, "Sorry, it's a habit, not... not touching anything, I don't know where to put my hands."

Long Aotian was furious, "Lu Chengwen! How dare you touch my woman! I swear, I will tear you apart!"

Lu Chengwen looked at Long Aotian, completely fearless at this point.

"Really? Do you think I'm afraid of you? Since we've already torn our faces apart, you'd better not provoke me in the future, otherwise, I'll be willing to let you slap me to death even if I have to risk my life, and I'll take half of yours!"

"You despicable ant! Speaking to this young master like this! It's infuriating! Hmph, when Hua Xuening wakes up, the first thing I'll do is let her slaughter you!"

Hun Tian Gang laughed heartily, "He saved that girl's life, why would she kill him?"

Lu Chengwen scratched his head, "She really might."

He sighed, "This girl's spiritual sense has been sealed, she can only be loyal to this kid, and she really hates me. I guess the first thing she'll do when she gets up is to kill me."

Hun Tian Gang said, "Don't worry, kid, take a look at this."

As he spoke, he pulled out another pill from his waistband.

Lu Chengwen was immediately shocked, "Senior, could this pill be..."

Long Aotian and Hun Tian Gang exclaimed together, "Exactly!"

Hun Tian Gang said, "Hmm!?"

Long Aotian's nose was almost crooked with anger.

So, Lu Chengwen only knows this trick? Eating this pill is eating it everywhere!

Long Aotian said, "Senior, since he knows, don't say it, let him say it. Let's see if he knows what this is!"

Lu Chengwen snorted coldly, "Is there a need to ask? If I'm not mistaken, this pill is!"

Long Aotian roared, "What?"

Lu Chengwen quickly crawled to Hua Xuening's side, "Xue Ning, were you scared just now? Oh, no, don't be afraid, oh, no, don't be afraid, good girl, Chengwen gege (brother) is here, Chengwen Gege (brother) is here..."

Long Aotian forgot his pain and immediately sprang up, his palm striking towards Lu Chengwen:

"How dare you play acting in front of me!"
