Chapter 138 - 0104 He is determined to take advantage of this (two-in-one)

What kind of feelings would Miss Yun have if she knew her husband was actually an Immortal reincarnation, yet he brought her along to painstakingly cultivate immortality?

That being said.

It seems the relationship between Xu Chang’an and his wife is quite good.

Could it be that what the books she read as a girl said are true, that even heavenly immortals come to the mortal world to endure tribulations of love?

Looking at it this way, it turns out Yun Qian is the one who gained opportunity.

"Cough." Shi Qingjun held her forehead.

She had thought quite a bit.

"Junior Brother, even if she wants to cultivate, you can teach her." Shi Qingjun said, "Qi Refining Realm, you don’t need that kind of thing."

"Senior Sister is right." Xu Chang’an replied upon hearing this, thinking of Yun Qian’s lazy, fleeting interest in things, and showed a somewhat helpless expression: "However, with such a thing, I can be more at ease."

"Really?" Shi Qingjun was unsure if Xu Chang’an was being overly anxious.

Perhaps he was not.

She looked at Xu Chang’an’s gentle emotions in his eyes and said: "Your relationship is truly good. Junior Brother, what would you feel if one day, you found out that the person next to you is actually very powerful?"

This was said from Yun Qian’s perspective.

"Does it matter?" Xu Chang’an inexplicably thought of Zhu Pingniang.

At that time, he also didn’t expect Zhu Pingniang to be a high-ranking member of the Immortal Sect. The girls working under her were unaware of such a thing, and if they found out, they would certainly be surprised.

But this would not change their respect for Zhu Pingniang.

So it’s not important.

"I was just speaking casually." Shi Qingjun blinked, then slid her fingers along the light screen, and said: "Suitable objects for use before Qi Refining Realm? Let me see if there’s anything left on Muyu Peak."

"Thank you, Senior Sister." Xu Chang’an was somewhat nervous.

If it were outside, with the permissions of an ordinary disciple, he estimated he wouldn’t be able to afford such precious items at all.

He could only hope there was some left among the inventory allocated to its people in the Steward Hall.

The key couldn’t be too expensive; he only had four thousand contribution points left, and not only did he need spiritual medicine but also a spiritual spring.

If he couldn’t afford it...

He would have to find a way.

The Qi Refining Realm might be quite difficult for Yun Qian. After all, initially channeling Spiritual Qi into the Elixir Field requires a high degree of inspiration, and given Yun Qian’s rather dull nature, it would be best to find a treasure as a guide.

Xu Chang’an had already made up his mind, if he really couldn’t afford it, he would borrow contribution points from Senior Sister to pave the way for Yun Qian.

"Senior Sister."

Xu Chang’an suddenly remembered something and asked: "Since cultivation emphasizes gradual progress, would using these spiritual medicines before cultivation cause her any harm?"

Although Wen Li said it would be best to have them, they are not necessary items.

While speaking, Xu Chang’an watched Shi Qingjun closely; as long as she showed any sign of confirmation, he would immediately abandon this idea. If he could help Yun Qian get started, that would be best; if not... he would just stay by her side all day.

His Spiritual Power was the most gentle and could always help her cultivate faster.

Fortunately, Shi Qingjun decisively shook her head and said casually: "Damage? What kind of damage? People without cultivation, even if they rush, won’t summon Tribulation Thunder."

"Tribulation Thunder?"

"I was just speaking casually."

Shi Qingjun came back to her senses and said: "Without opening the source, it’s strictly not considered entering the path of cultivation; during this time, it’s merely accumulating Spiritual Power, so there’s nothing to worry about. Well, there are three items left suitable for the Qi Refining Realm."

"What are they?" Xu Chang’an took a deep breath.

"The ones that can increase Spiritual Power without too many side effects are just some small things, let me see..."

"There are three types left." Shi Qingjun said: "The most effective is the Spirit-Eating Worm. The Spiritual Power can circulate through all the body’s meridians and then return to the Elixir Field, absorbing the most thoroughly. Ordinary people who consume it can extend their life, prevent disease and calamity, but the effect isn’t gentle and might cause... stomach... uh, pain."

——

The effect is so good?

Stomachache? No problem.

Xu Chang’an blinked.

——

"The moderate one is the Calm Heart Flower, it does not have much Spiritual Power stored, and it cannot travel through the meridians, but it does not affect entering the Elixir Field, and is gentler."

"Lastly, there is the ordinary one, the seed of the Green Lotus." Shi Qingjun closed the virtual screen and said: "Most of the Spiritual Power is used in the lotus to refine elixir. The seed’s quality is poor and not usable medicinally, just to fill the number. Only a small part of the Spiritual Power can be absorbed... Junior Brother, which one do you want?"

"Junior Brother?" Seeing Xu Chang’an in a daze, Shi Qingjun lightly tapped her finger on the table.

"There are so many types?" Xu Chang’an sighed, once again feeling the similarity between cultivation and the mundane world.

With money, you can do what you want.

Without money, you can’t move forward.

It’s the same in any world.

"Senior Sister Shi, you mentioned the lotus seeds... how many points are they?" Xu Chang’an unhesitatingly chose the one with the least effect.

"Let me see." Shi Qingjun, apparently not familiar with the items here, glanced at them and said: "Ten thousand."

"Ten thousand?" Xu Chang’an’s closed eyes opened wide.

He knew that the Steward Hall sold to internal disciples at a ten to one ratio, or even lower when converted to Spirit Stones.

He expected such items to be expensive, but didn’t anticipate them being this outrageously priced.

These items, high-priced with minimal return, seemed somewhat impractical.

The good thing was, it was effortless to obtain them.

Yet there was a market without supply.

...

With a light sigh, Xu Chang’an gently rubbed his brow, thinking he certainly couldn’t afford to buy them, and it seemed he indeed needed to borrow some contribution points from a Senior Sister.

For the sake of Miss Yun, it’s worth owing favors and repaying more contribution points.
