With Lan Ling out of commission and unable to respond, it was easier for Wang Wei to red her fate and learned what he wanted to. As for the artifact that was protecting her Fate Line, it was quite easy to overcome without the owner present to actively use it.
He did not read all of her memories and events. After finding the information he wanted, he quickly saw it. Then, he frowned.
Wang Wei guessed that the [Flame Controlling Art] was related to the Origin Pill Flame Scripture that he wanted; He thought that the flame controlling art was some kind of technique that made it easier for people to cultivate the Origin Pill Flame Scripture given how high of a threshold it is rumored to have.
Another guess was the fact that it was spread to find people who are fated with the Origin Pill Flame Scripture by either Lou Cheng's master or the Danyuan Emperor.
However, he was wrong. The [Flame Controlling Art] did not have anything to do with the Origin Pill Dao Sect at all. Well, not completely.
This art was created by the Flame Emperor as a test for fated people to get his inheritance. After cultivating the art to the 6th level, one can try to pass the test of the Flame Emperor and acquire the famous [Ten Thousand Flame Art], which the Flame Emperor was famous for.
From what is known about his Emperor, he used this scripture to combine thousands of Earthly and Heavenly Flames into the Chaos Flame. And according to rumors, when the Flame Emperor proved the Dao, his flame evolved to Primordial Chaos Flame, able to burn chaos itself.
Wang Wei sighed after knowing this. Another thing that the Flame Emperor was famous for was his Alchemy level. Many people believed that his talent was good enough to compete for the title of Dan Ancestor and win if he was born in the Ancient Era.
From the news he learned from Lan Lin, Wang Wei knew that his cheap master, Ye Lao, wanted to acquire the [Ten Thousand Flame Art] to compete with Fu Caiyun's Origin Pill Flame Sutra.
So, he placed heavy emphasis on his third senior sister. As for Lou Cheng, Ye Lao did not have many hopes for him because of his level of talent. Even if he was lucky enough to acquire the [Flame Controlling Art]. his chances of passing the test of the Flame Emperor and inheriting his legacy were quite slim.
At least, until a while ago when Wang Wei replaced him and began to display amazing talent.
After finding this out, he was a little disappointed.
"Well, acquiring another Emperor Scripture is not a bad thing."
For now, Wang Wei knew that his plan would not change. And it also might be more difficult than predicted. After all, it seemed that even his master did not have any control over the distribution of the Origin Pill Flame Scripture.
He then proceeded to deal with the current situation. He scanned Lan Ling's body and frowned. Despite knocking her down, she was still in a bad situation.
He waved his hand and a small vortex appeared in his hand. Then, he sucked the pink cloud that was influencing her mind and body and condensed it into a pill.
He could see that her complexion returned to normal, and a peaceful sleeping look appeared on her face. To make sure that nothing was wrong, he once again used his Divine Sense to check her body.
Then, he frowned.
Inside Lan Ling's Primordial Spirit, he saw a black and white flower with strange golden designs on its petals.
"Infatuation Flower?"
As soon as he identified the flower, he quickly checked his own Sea of Consciousness and saw a seed in his soul. To be precise, in Lou Cheng's soul.
"Cause and Effect, Huh? *Sigh*"
The Infatuation Flower is a very rare, unique, and infamous spiritual herb in the world. To be created, someone who is truly infatuated with love has to die in pain and sorrow in a place of balance yin and yang before being born.
Once a person acquires the flower, he can plant a seed on the person he or she loved, then whether that person wants to or not, their Will will be slowly twisted to love that person's back.
The most terrifying thing about this flower is the fact that its grade is not based on the amount of spiritual energy absorbed or the passage of time. But solely on the level of love or infatuation of the person who created the flower.
One anecdote that showed how powerful this flower is is the fact one Great Emperor had one secretly planted by a person that loved him when he was young.
That flower was so powerful that even after proving the Dao, the flower created a powerful Karma Debt that he had to repay. If he forcefully removed it, he would be injured by the backlash.
To deal with the flower, he was forced to marry the woman that planted the flower and waited until she died to pay off this debt, There were even rumors that the woman was so infatuated with the Emperor that he was forced to find her after her reincarnation and spent many lifetimes with her before paying his debt and removing the flower.
After thinking about all the information he knew about the flower, Wang Wei smile wrily and muttered: "This may not be a bad thing for Lou Cheng."
Although the Infatuation Flower has a bad name, there is also a benefit to it. For example, it is a perfect flower for Dual Cultivations of Dao Companions. If two people who love one another acquire this flower and planted it within with each other's soul, the flower will mutate into Yin-Yang Love Flower which can help them dual cultivate together and break free from the restrictions of talent.
A perfect example of this was the Yin-Yang Companion Emperor. She and her Dao Companion used the flower to cultivate the Quasi-Emperor Realm despite their poor talents.
Then, during the Heaven Will Battle, the two fought all the Heaven Chosens of their generation together and won. In the end, the husband allowed his wife to prove the Dao.
Later, she cultivated the Yin-Yang Love Flower to Emperor Grade and used it to combine her Dao with her husband, thus becoming one and him also becoming an Emperor.
Because of this, the Infatuation Flower became famous and many other Great Emperors wanted to copy this method so that their Dao Companions could also become Emperors like them.
Unfortunately, no one has succeeded. Not to mention how rare this flower was, so only a few even found it to even try.
After sighing for who knows how many times in a few minutes, Wang Wei suddenly placed a seal on the seed on Lou Cheng's mind before doing the same for Lan Ling.
"Wait until I leave before you two deal with your mess. I don't want any part of it."
Honestly, he was somewhat annoyed at the situation. Why was such a rare flower planted in such a place?
What's more, was the reason the seed entered his body. If he was not decided to be cautious and not use his own power, how could he fail to notice such a thing?
Wang Wei understood that such inconsequential decisions, such small mistakes are the machinations of Fate, the subtle powers of cause and effect.
Unless he becomes more powerful and further understands and controlled these powers, he cannot escape from them.
So, he sighed out loud once again. He proceeded to take his cauldron to refine a few pills to heal Lan Ling's body. Although he removed the poison from her body, it still did quite some damage.
"You are lucky you did not touch her, otherwise you would be a Eunuch right about now," suddenly said a voice.
Wang Wei was startled as he immediately became on guard while at the same wondering who could sneak up so close to him without even noticing.
"Oh, it was you," he replied after seeing the beautiful goddess with the long cheongsam showing her long and white leg; it was his future wife, Wu Hong.
"What did you just say?" asked Wang Wei.
"You heard me."
"Hehe," said Wang Wei as he stared at her exposed legs and beautiful jade feet. He instinctively stretched his hand to caress them, unfortunately, he only received a slap on his hand.
"Don't be mad. As you said, I did not touch her."
Wang Wei was long aware of the cliche of the protagonist being forced to inhaled aphrodisiacs and act like a beast. So, as early as he designed the Pagoda Trial, he especially arranged a layer that involved this aspect.
He trained his will to resist these kinds of things so in case he found himself in a situation where his powerful fleshly body's immune to poison did not work, he can still resist.
"I'm not mad," replied Wu Hong calmly. "You cannot touch me while inside this stranger's body."
It was then Wang Wei realized that he was still Lou Cheng at the moment.
'Did I almost give myself a green hat?'
