Having children earns benefit, start competing for dominance in the world by marrying a wife-Chapter 396 - 256 Marching Northward_1

Seeing that Mu Zixuan and the others couldn't guess, Lu Chen directly said, "The pill in your hands is called the Preserving Beauty Pill. By the name, you should know what it is for, right?"

Upon hearing Lu Chen's words, the three women were stunned at the same time.

When their gazes returned to the pill in their hands, their eyes seemed to emit a fervent glow. freewёbnoνel.com

With disbelief on her face, Mu Zixuan asked, "Prince... Prince, does that mean after taking the Preserving Beauty Pill, we won't age so quickly?"

Mu Zixuan only dared to speculate that the pill was for slowing aging; she didn't even dare to think about eternal youth, as that was something all women dream of. She truly couldn't believe that such a miraculous pill existed in the world.

Lu Chen said with a smile, "My beloved concubine, your guess is too conservative."

"As long as you take the Preserving Beauty Pill, you will never age. With the passage of time, at most your hair might turn white."

Hearing Lu Chen's words, the three women were utterly astonished.

Looking at the Preserving Beauty Pill in their hands, they were desperate to pop it into their mouths right away.

No woman doesn't wish for eternal youth, and Mu Zixuan and the others were no exception; the temptation was simply too great for them.

After coming back to her senses, Mu Zixuan said, "Prince... Prince, such an Immortal Pill must be extremely precious. Are you truly going to give it to us?"

Lu Chen said with a smile, "Of course, all of you are my women, isn't it right for me to give you gifts?"

Mu Zixuan then said, "Thank you, Prince, for bestowing me the Immortal Pill."

Seeing Mu Zixuan expressing her gratitude, Dazhou and Xiaozhou also hastily said, "Thank you, Prince, for bestowing the Immortal Pill."

Although she was very happy, Mu Zixuan still asked, "Prince, such an Immortal Pill is so precious, what about the other sisters..."

Mu Zixuan paused mid-sentence because this kind of Immortal Pill was something everyone wanted; she was worried that Lu Chen only had these three pills, and giving them to the three of them could cause imbalance among the other women in the Prince's Mansion.

Lu Chen said, "The reason I'm giving these three Preserving Beauty Pills to you first is mainly because they are Martial Artists. Martial Artists do not age as quickly. If their Realms should reach the Heavenly Human Realm in a short period of time, they too can maintain their youth indefinitely and might not need the Preserving Beauty Pill."

"Moreover, rest assured, I have more than three Preserving Beauty Pills. When someone needs one, I will give it to her immediately."

Hearing Lu Chen's words, Mu Zixuan said, "With that, I feel assured."

Mu Zixuan's biggest worry was that the women in the mansion would grow jealous over certain matters, leading to intrigue and plots within the household. Since Lu Chen had more than one pill, he would presumably give them to the other women when he visited their rooms in the future.

Lu Chen said, "Alright, go ahead and take them now, let's see how effective they are."

After hearing this, the three women didn't hesitate and immediately swallowed the Preserving Beauty Pills.

After swallowing the pills, they felt their bodies become incredibly refreshed, and their spirits were noticeably lifted. Then, Lu Chen noticed Mu Zixuan and the others' skin peeling away at a visible rate, although they felt no pain.

Lu Chen then lifted his hand and gently took a piece of peeling skin from Mu Zixuan's face, revealing the smooth, tender skin beneath; from now on, the three women wouldn't even need to wear light makeup.

Mu Zixuan and the others also became aware of what was happening to their faces, and not just their facial skin, but all over their bodies, the skin was shedding like a snake's.

Mu Zixuan peeled away the dead skin from her hand and discovered her arm had become incredibly smooth and fair, which excited her greatly.

Indeed worthy of the name Immortal Pill, it went to work the moment they took it.

Lu Chen said with a smile, "My beloved concubines, why don't you go wash away the dirt from your bodies? After bathing, take a look in the mirror; I'm sure you will be very surprised."

Mu Zixuan excitedly said, "Yes, Prince,"

"Your concubine will take her leave now."

Immediately thereafter, Mu Zixuan told the maids to prepare hot water, and she bathed with Dazhou and Xiaozhou.

Next to the main hall was a hot water pool, which had been constructed at Lu Chen's behest since his arrival in the North Country. The three women bathed in it.

Once they had washed off all the dead skin and filth, their skin had become smooth as porcelain, as tender as a baby's, with a fair complexion slightly flushed with a soft glow. If Lu Chen were there, he surely would not have been able to suppress the stirrings within his heart.

Xiaoxiao, thrilled, said, "Sister Zixuan, you've become so beautiful, I can hardly recognize you!"

Zixuan said, "You too, I never expected the Preserving Beauty Pill the Prince gave us would make us even more beautiful!"

At this moment, Youyou said childishly, "That's wonderful, from now on I won't need to apply rouge to my face anymore."

All three women felt overjoyed inside. After their bath, they immediately went to look in the recently made glass mirror in the Prince's Mansion. As soon as they saw themselves in the mirror, they were captivated by their own beauty and didn't want to leave for quite some time.

It took a while before Zixuan and the others snapped out of it and remembered they had to thank Lu Chen. However, by the time they returned to the main hall, Lu Chen was already occupied with state affairs.

They were due to head north soon, and there would be a lot to handle in the coming days, including preparations for provisions and weapons.

A few days later.

Lu Chen held a military review outside the walls of North City. This review did not showcase the firearms of the North Country, instead, it was mainly to boost morale.
