Shen Wang's reaction fell into Liu Ruyan's eyes, and she was quite satisfied, always smiling.

Shen Wang ate heartily for a while, saw Liu Ruyan smiling at him, and rolled his eyes: "You don't plan on fattening me up to draw blood, do you?"

Liu Ruyan was speechless: "Who uses dragon meat for that? This pot costs thousands of Spirit Stones, I can't even bear to eat it myself."

"True enough, makes sense. You should eat more."

Shen Wang ate a carrot and found that the spiritual power contained in it was also very rich.

After taking a sip of wine, he said: "You probably want my blood too, right?"

"Of course, with your blood, I can experience the formation process of Top Grade Dharma Pills several more times, which is tremendously beneficial for my advancement to Medicine Emperor."

Liu Ruyan nodded, not hiding anything: "Don't worry, I won't just take your blood. How about I treat you to a signature dish every time I succeed?"

"Well then, I'll profit."

Shen Wang was amused. This woman was indeed generous; he himself might not be so generous.

"That's a must. If you bleed, how could I let you suffer a loss?"

Liu Ruyan had a great attitude: "If you have any requests, you can tell me, and I'll do my best to fulfill them."

"Can you be my wife?"

Shen Wang asked boldly: "Then we'd be family, and it would be more convenient."

Liu Ruyan was speechless: "Don't joke around. Even if you're serious, I wouldn't sell myself for something like this."

"How is it selling? Isn't looking for a Dao partner a normal thing?"

Shen Wang smiled.

"But it can't be such a joke."

Liu Ruyan shook her head.

"Alright, let me change my request. Could you help me rescue some people?"

Shen Wang got serious. His earlier words were just to set Liu Ruyan's expectations, then to reveal his true purpose, which was to rescue his little sister and the others.

Compared to him, a disciple of the Array Refining Pavilion, Liu Ruyan was definitely more suitable to negotiate with Xie Zhenxin for people.

If Liu Ruyan could easily help him rescue them, it would naturally be the simplest and would save a lot of trouble.

"Rescue people?" Liu Ruyan didn't quite understand: "Do you have some friends or family who were captured?"

"Yes, if you agree, you have to help me keep it a secret."

Shen Wang nodded.

"Keeping it a secret is a given, but it depends on who captured your friends and family. My skills are mainly in alchemy, not fighting."

Liu Ruyan didn't answer rashly. Otherwise, it would be awkward if she couldn't follow through.

"This matter just happens to suit you. I think if you stepped in, you could pull it off."

Shen Wang said: "The people I want to rescue are some of Xie Zhenxin's medicine slaves. Could you help retrieve them for me? If you can manage it, I'll at least satisfy your alchemy needs three times."

Liu Ruyan was surprised: "Medicine slaves? Xie Zhenxin's?"

She was a bit confused, wondering what the situation was. How did Xie Zhenxin's medicine slaves become Shen Wang's friends or family?

"The upcoming matters need you to keep them confidential for now. You have to swear an oath."

Shen Wang didn't directly reveal his situation.

He and Liu Ruyan had only met three times so far, so naturally, he couldn't be too casual.

Liu Ruyan thought for a moment, if it's just medicine slaves, she could indeed directly ask Xie Zhenxin for them. Even if she couldn't succeed, as long as she didn't tell others, it would be fine.

She raised her hand seriously and said: "Alright, I, Liu Ruyan, swear that regarding your friends and family who became medicine slaves, I will not disclose anything to a third party without your permission. If I violate this, may I face divine retribution!"

Seeing Liu Ruyan's sincere attitude, Shen Wang began to disclose some details.

He wasn't too worried about leaks, as long as Liu Ruyan didn't reveal them in the short term.

Over time, Yu Qiong Dian on that side would notice his actions, and then there would undoubtedly be new variables.

Moreover, he didn't disclose everything. He modified some parts and only mentioned that his people were captured for offending the Sixth Prince.

Liu Ruyan frowned upon hearing Shen Wang's description for a moment: "Since Yu Qiong Dian handed them over to Xie Zhenxin, it indicates they're not too important. I'll help you ask."

"Once Yu Qiong Dian and Xie Zhenxin separate, I'll ask immediately. I'm afraid of any unexpected events."

Shen Wang wanted to handle this quickly; taking advantage of the timing was crucial. Otherwise, if Yu Qiong Dian noticed, they might take the people back, or Xie Zhenxin might refuse to let them go.

"Alright, I'll give it a try."

Liu Ruyan nodded, glancing outside: "Asking that guy Xie Zhenxin is a bit awkward."

"Why, what's the problem?"

"He's my pursuer, and I rejected him. I don't usually want to get entangled with him. Asking him for people now feels a bit odd."

Liu Ruyan was a bit frustrated: "But for the sake of your blood, I have to thicken my skin and go. If I succeed, how about you give me two more bottles of blood?"

"Sure, I'll give it to you in installments."

Shen Wang nodded: "My blood now is even better than last time, it'll definitely help you in alchemy,"

"Oh, really? I'm a bit excited now."

Liu Ruyan's eyes lit up. In alchemy, practice makes perfect, and having enough success experiences helps improve skills.

Once experience accumulates, alchemy proficiency naturally improves.

"We'll act in a while. Let's exchange contact details for now."

Shen Wang took out a Communication Jade Pendant, which was similar to a telephone from his past life, though its range wasn't as far. But as long as the other party's pendant imprint was kept, communication was possible within a certain range.

"Alright, quickly finish the dragon meat, and we'll talk after."

Liu Ruyan matched the Communication Jade Pendant with Shen Wang's and rested her chin, contemplating how to start the conversation.

After thinking for a moment, she asked: "Can you give me pictures of the people you want to rescue?"
