I got six bottles and tonight two of them are being poured into glasses around this table, and the deep burgundy in each one looks exactly like wine because that is exactly what it is, except that it isn't only that. The compound I spent two months sourcing and another six weeks testing is colourless and tasteless and dissolves without a trace, and when it takes effect — somewhere between two and three hours after consumption — it will put a person into a deep, comatose sleep for nine hours, give or take. Non-lethal. Untraceable without a very specific panel that nobody in this room would think to run. Most of the guests tonight will be home and in their own beds long before it hits them. Th

Bai Ling'er tugged at Childe Zhou's arm unwillingly, " Childe Zhou, you promised me that you would buy me the Wilderness Cold Lotus." The Wilderness Cold Lotus was not only an important material for Bai Ling'er to practice energy pills, it was also something that Bai Ling'er's huge vanity came from. Just now, Childe Zhou's shocking shout had already attracted the attention of everyone present. She did not want to lose face so quickly.

In the end, the whole Blood Sea turned into a huge blood-red lotus. The leaves and petals of the lotus were vivid and lifelike. It was like a real blood lotus standing proudly between heaven and earth. However, the Blood Lotus was too fierce and surging. If ordinary cultivators got a little closer, their consciousness would be eroded. They would either be integrated into it or become its puppets.

Krister asked, looking at his tablet still before walking to the back room. “Black? She doesn’t-- I mean didn’t wear anything else?” she asked, her eyebrows meeting in the middle confused. “Don’t tell me she’s one of those people…” “Yes, specifically black clothing. They’re hot in the day but you disappear in the night. That’s what she always said to me.” Krister disappeared in the back to get something whilst Rojean was left there to contemplate on her own how she was going to pull the act off if she was a bad liar herself.

"The first-class Persian salt, the fresh blood of the black deer born in the twelfth lunar month, and the snow lotus in the exceedingly cold location that needs to be utilized for aftercare," Kinson said slowly.

"Snow lotus is incredibly rare, and it is much more rare in really cold climates," said Li TCM, nodding.

He didn’t have to worry about facing the wrath of that twisted diabolical man. The old master opened the wooden box as everyone was distracted and peered inside the box; on the red velvety surface was a pure white snow lotus, emitting a rather rich spiritual energy. The smell was enough to waken the spiritual guardian who was on his last leg. The old master didn’t waste any time as he placed his hand on the lotus and closed his eyes to absorb the spiritual energy.

Even a mere slave nowadays dared to throw stones at him. Feeling suffocated by thoughts of his bleak past, Lui Xian turned his mind to the time he had spent with Feng Shao. He remembered how happy he had been. Yes, there had been moments of fighting, but those were precious too. Now, he realized that Feng Shao was the most important person in his life. He believed that the heavens had granted him such a rare and beautiful lotus flower. He still wondered if he would ever have the chance to cherish him again.

Old Hagstorm laughed and opened the three blind boxes. In the third box was a unique medicinal plant. It was shaped like a lotus and had seven bizarrely fiery red petals, representing its extreme heat attribute. This was the Dragon Flame Lotus!
