Chapter 251 Sun Flame Pond

Chapter 251 Sun Flame Pond

It’s a new month in a blink of an eye.

Early this morning, Manager Shang came to pick up Li Xuan and take him to Yuqing Pond.

Li Xuan stood on Manager Shang's shoulders, yawning and wiping his eyes.

He was just pulled out of the cat nest by Manager Shang.

At this moment, Zhao Feng has not even come to Jingyang Palace to teach Yu'er martial arts.

"Meow?"

Li Xuan screamed with some dissatisfaction, looked at the sun that had just risen in the distance, and complained that Manager Shang came too early.

Manager Shang chuckled and continued:

"Axuan, don't be ungrateful."

"As an old man, I got up so early to pick you up, but it's all for your own good."

"We'll find out when we get there later."

Li Xuan disagreed.

He had already seen Sun Flame Pond before.

Even though today is the day when Sun Flame Pond is at its best, Li Xuan is quite confident.

He experienced a baptism in the Moon Yin Pond, and his body received a qualitative improvement.

In the past few days, I have become even more comfortable practicing Dragon Tiger and Wind Roar. I have successfully passed the halfway point and am not far from perfection.

One person and one cat soon arrived at Yuqing Pond.

I've been greeted here a long time ago, and someone is already waiting outside the door.

Seeing the arrival of Manager Shang, the eunuch in charge of the daily affairs of Yuqing Pool quickly saluted respectfully, not daring to slack off at all.

The eunuch in charge looked like he had just entered middle age, but he was far worse than the senior manager Shang.

"Manager Shang, everything has been prepared. If you need anything else, please feel free to give me your instructions."

Manager Shang nodded and replied: "Manager An, right? You're busy."

"No, Mr. Shang is too polite. Just call me Xiao Anzi."

Manager An was terrified.

There are no eunuchs in the palace who don't know Mr. Shang. Even though the man in front of him is the manager of Yuqing Pool, they don't dare to be disrespectful in the slightest.

They were not only afraid of the power controlled by Manager Shang, but also admired it.

Manager Shang's character has been well-known in the palace for so many years.

What's more, he set an example for the eunuchs in the palace, letting everyone know that eunuchs can live a good life, and that their adopted sons can really provide for them in old age, which gradually gave the eunuchs the confidence to give themselves self-respect.

In the past, the eunuchs in the palace, who were not compared to snakes, insects, rats, ants, pigs, dogs, eagles, and dogs, had never had a good word to say.

However, after General Manager Shang took power and successfully handed over the position of General Manager of the House of Internal Affairs to his adopted son, the eunuch's reputation gradually changed.

The main reason is that their eunuchs can think highly of themselves and are willing to be a eunuch that others can respect.

If Mr. Shang can have a peaceful old age, he will be a role model to these eunuchs.

Seeing that Manager An was uncomfortable with him, Manager Shang thanked him briefly and took Li Xuan to the depths of Yuqing Pond.

It's the end of summer now, but the weather is still hot.

Especially after entering Yuqing Pool, waves of heat hit me.

It is also difficult for the eunuchs and maids who work here to be steamed like this every day.

But what surprised Li Xuan was that he didn't see the moisture in Yuqing Pond today, but it was very dry.

"Is it because it's too early and the soup pools haven't heated up yet?"

"Eh, that's not right."

"I remember that the water in the soup pool was heated with stones."

Li Xuan felt a little strange and looked around.

It didn't take long for Manager Shang and Li Xuan to arrive between the two rockeries. The famous Sun and Moon Yin Yang Pond was already in sight.

Just looking at the scene in front of him, Li Xuan's expression couldn't help but be a little dull.

This place was very different from when he came before.

The Yueyin Pond, which was originally dark and bottomless, now became crystal clear, and the color of the water even changed.

Li Xuan clearly remembered that the water before was obviously black, and not even a trace of light could penetrate.

But now it is just like ordinary water, transparent and clear.

He looked down and could even vaguely see the bottom of the pool.

"No, I remember it very well. Why has it become so shallow now?"

Li Xuan tilted his head, wondering if the Sun Moon Yin Yang Pond in front of him had been tricked by someone.

"Hmph, did you think it was very deep before?"

Manager Shang smiled from the side.

"But in fact, the pools on both sides are nine feet deep, exactly the same."

Li Xuan's heart moved:

"Is it less than thirty meters?"

"But I clearly remember before..."

But then he shook his head.

At that time, it was pitch black inside the Moon Yin Pond, but Li Xuan could not clearly judge the depth of his dive.

It may also be because of the huge pressure in Yueyin Pond that Li Xuan misjudged the distance. This is also normal.

And after knowing that both sides of the Sun-Moon Yin-Yang Pond were only nine feet and nine feet deep, Li Xuan felt a lot more relaxed.

The unknown is the scariest thing.

When he knew that Sun Flame Lake was only that deep, his psychological pressure was reduced a lot.

But when Li Xuan followed Manager Shang to the Sun Flame Pond, his expression couldn't help but become confused again.

"Meow?"

Seeing Li Xuan's confused and speechless expression, Manager Shang couldn't help but laugh.

"Axuan, the last time you saw Sun Flame Pool, he was the weakest."

"This is quite exciting today."

Manager Shang pointed at the Sunfire Pond, which was blazing white with sparks constantly popping up, with a malicious smile on his face.

A white flame like a will-o'-the-wisp flashed across the Sun Flame Lake, and it flashed away.

Li Xuandu wondered if someone had added ingredients to Sun Flame Lake today.

"Meow, woo? (If you want to eat cat meat hot pot, you can just say so, you don't have to mess with me like this, right?)"

Li Xuan stood up like a little man, spreading his two front paws with a speechless expression on his face.

Manager Shang grinned, stood and spoke without pain in his back and said:

"Axuan, where are you now?"

"The sun has just risen."

"It will be a spectacular event at noon!"

"There are flames rising out of the Sun Flame Lake, like a big pillar of fire."

"Otherwise, how do you think the name Sunfire Lake came about?"

"If there hadn't been such a vision, the names would have rhymed with each other."

"It's just that this scene is too..."

"Oh, I won't say it anymore, I'm afraid I'll scare you."

Manager Shang talked a lot, and in the end he looked like he couldn't bear it, waved his hands and turned his head aside.

Li Xuan looked at the sparks on the pool, and then thought about the situation described by Manager Shang, his hind legs swayed unsatisfactorily.

"Meow! Meow! (No more fun! No more fun!)"

"Meow? (Isn't this pushing the cat into the fire pit?)"

"Meow, meow! (I want to go home, I want to go home!)"

Li Xuan shouted heartbreakingly, but he couldn't break free from Manager Shang's big hand.

Seeing that he was trying to retreat, Manager Shang launched a sneak attack and pinched the back of Li Xuan's neck.

"Oh, Ah Xuan."

"This is the opportunity you finally asked for. Wouldn't it be a pity to give it up so easily?"

Mr. Shang gave good advice.

"Don't worry, I will be watching you."

"It's absolutely impossible for you to become familiar with Da Jin."

"Meow——(ah——)"

It's okay if Manager Shang didn't say anything. When he did, Li Xuan was frightened and cried non-stop, like a bratty child. He screamed but didn't shed a single tear.

"Hahaha."

Li Xuan's appearance made Mr. Shang laugh out loud, and he couldn't help but think of a certain little prince.

"Axuan, don't be afraid."

After Mr. Shang had laughed enough, he wiped the tears from his eyes.

"Your Majesty is not willing to cook you. Why don't you prepare some good things to save your life?"

As Manager Shang said, he took out a dark blue pill.

"Here, this is the Cold Body Pill, it can help you."

After saying that, Manager Shang stuffed the elixir into Li Xuan's mouth, which was crying, and immediately shut him up.

Li Xuan only focused on crying when he suddenly felt an itchiness in his throat and swallowed something subconsciously.

Li Xuan became quiet now, still thinking about what he had just swallowed, with a strange expression on his face.

"Don't worry, it's a good thing."

Manager Shang lifted Li Xuan's butt and held him in his arms.

"First digest the potency of the medicine, and wait until noon is almost right before you can take it."

At this moment, Li Xuan suddenly felt a cold feeling in his stomach, and the cold breath in his body became active and began to circulate.

"What did Mr. Shang say just now? I didn't hear clearly."

Li Xuan was stunned for a moment, and then gestured to his mouth at Manager Shang.

Only then did Manager Shang realize that Li Xuan had not heard what he said clearly, so he repeated it helplessly.

"This is the elixir that His Majesty has prepared for you. It will allow you to stay in the Sun Flame Pond for a while longer, and it will also slightly strengthen your body."

"But don't take too much of this medicine, otherwise it will be very harmful to your body."

Manager Shang followed Li Xuan's hair and noticed that Li Xuan's body temperature was slowly dropping.

It's just that they are standing on the edge of the Sun Flame Lake, and the temperature drop is nothing at all.

Li Xuan immediately closed his eyes and felt a chill slowly arousing in his body, and this chill was getting stronger and stronger.

"It's a bit like when the chill in Ankang's body breaks out, but it's much milder than that."

"Hehe, it seems that Emperor Yongyuan is very trustworthy."

Li Xuan remembered that Emperor Yongyuan had said that he would prepare a small gift that day, and it seemed that it was this elixir.

"The human race's alchemy path is quite developed, and there are elixirs with various effects."

"I don't know how to make alchemy, can I also learn it?"

Li Xuan took note of this matter and planned to go to Qianxing Pavilion next time to see if there were any books related to alchemy.

He remembered that there was a young man in the past who practiced alchemy with both hands, and finally reached the pinnacle of his life.

Although Li Xuan is a cat, he cannot lag behind others.

"Thirty years..."

"Be careful, digest the medicine, and be ready before noon."

Li Xuan was about to shout slogans, but Manager Shang noticed that he was uneasy and immediately reminded him.

Li Xuan immediately meowed in fear and concentrated on digesting the potion.

When he was concentrating on digesting the power of the cold body elixir, time flew by quickly.

Li Xuan had already started to tremble all over, and the voice of the fashion manager finally sounded.

"Axuan, it's noon."

Li Xuan opened his eyes, and saw no shadow of the Sun Flame Pond in front of him, but a sea of ​​blazing white fire.

He couldn't help but make a sound and swallowed.

"Mr. Shang is really not blind."
