Chapter 97: Yu Yan’s Suggestion

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

He left the True Treasure Pavilion.

...

Shopkeeper Qu’s voice still echoed in Shen Ping’s ears. The status of a special-class guest elder was high and completely independent of the True Treasure Pavilion. It was similar to the true disciples of a large sect, but it was different.

As long as he could become a special-class guest elder, Foundation Establishment and Golden Core would be a smooth path.

Many rare treasures in the auction, such as the Snow Ganoderma Pill and the Spirit Jade Ginseng Ointment, required authority to buy in the building. However, special-class guest elders did not need it. According to Shopkeeper Qu, they did not even need to contribute. Those with outstanding potential and talent could enjoy it as their treatment.

All in all, as long as he could become a special-class guest elder, the True Treasure Pavilion would nurture him with all their might.

However, the conditions for the assessment were extremely harsh. He was only qualified for assessment because he could create Level Two talismans at the late stage of Qi Refinement. Even this qualification made Shopkeeper Ding, Shopkeeper Qu, and the second-grade guest elder, Guest Elder Chong, change their attitudes.

“A special-class guest elder!” Shen Ping stood at the entrance of the small courtyard in Huiquan Alley. His fists were slightly clenched, and his gaze was filled with determination. Previously, his goal was to become a second-grade guest elder and have a higher status in the True Treasure Pavilion so that it would be easier for him to cultivate in the future.

But now, he wanted to fight for the position of special-class guest elder. Even if he did not succeed in the end, he would not leave any regrets. After all, he had an advantage that other cultivators could not surpass.

He opened the virtual frame.

The golden and dazzling Talisman Master was not far from breaking through to the High-grade Level Two. As long as he worked harder, he would be able to successfully break through at the end of the year. As long as his Foundation Establishment Divine Sense broke through to mid-stage, with his rich spiritual energy at the ninth level of Qi Refinement, he might be able to try to make a Mid-grade Level Two talisman.

“Perfected Qi Refinement. Mid-stage Foundation Establishment Divine Sense.

A High-grade Level Two Talisman Master.”

When all three conditions were satisfied, he would try again. He could apply for the assessment of a special-class guest elder at any time. But few dared to apply. There had not been a special-class guest elder in the Wei Kingdom’s True Treasure Pavilion for hundreds of years.

He suppressed his emotions. Shen Ping came to the small courtyard. The courtyard was empty, and the house was silent.

At this time, his wife and concubines were setting up stalls in South City. Ever since Luo Qing had opened her heart last time, although she was still expressionless, she had also begun to try to integrate into this family.

He was not in a hurry to go to the talisman making room or quiet room. He first took a ladle of spiritual water and walked to the spiritual field farmed by his wife in the northeast corner of the small courtyard. He slowly watered the spiritual date tree.

There were new and tender green leaves at the bottom of the branches. The lines of the leaves reminded Shen Ping of the private room in the Hidden Spirit House.

After pondering for a long time, he spat out a word. “Very moist.”

Ding ding ding-

At this moment, bells suddenly sounded outside the small courtyard. Shen Ping looked up. He saw that the tightly shut courtyard door next door had already opened. Although he could not see the scenery in the courtyard, he could vaguely hear a gentle voice coming from it. However, as the array in the courtyard was activated again, it stopped abruptly.

He was stunned. He returned to the talisman making room and made a Lightning Talisman, preparing to visit his neighbors at night. He had already visited the other tenants a long time ago. Occasionally, they would gather when they were free. Only this small courtyard in the north did not have any cultivators.

It was sunset.

His wife and concubines walked back to the small courtyard happily. His wife, who was meticulous, noticed that the courtyard next door could not see the scenery. She could not help but exclaim softly, “There’s a tenant in the north.”

Yu Yan, Bai Yuying, and Luo Qing all looked over.

“I wonder what cultivator lives there.”

“It must be Foundation Establishment.” Bai Yuying chuckled. “And he’s not an ordinary Foundation Establishment cultivator.”

Yu Yan shook her head. “Husband, you’re a Qi Refinement cultivator. You’ve already attracted attention by renting this place. We have to be careful.”

“Understood.” Wang Yun glanced at the spiritual field in the corner and saw that the gourd had been moved. She could not help but say happily, “Husband is back. I’ll go cook first.”

Bai Yuying quickly followed. “I’ll help her.”

Luo Qing stood rooted to the ground and suddenly did not know what to do. In the end, she could only silently go to the bedroom to lay the sheets.

Yu Yan smiled and walked straight to the room.

As the crystal lamp appeared in the hall, the fragrance of food filled the air.

Shen Ping walked out of the talisman-making room, stretched, and saw his wife and concubines waiting. He walked into the hall and said gently, “You’ve been tired for the entire day. Hurry up and eat.”

After the meal, he brought Yu Yan to the entrance of the small courtyard next door. He shouted a few times. Soon, someone came out. The moment he opened the door, the spiritual pressure of Foundation Establishment spread out, but when it saw Shen Ping and Yu Yan, it immediately restrained itself.

A hint of surprise flashed across the middle-aged cultivator’s calm face. Clearly, he did not expect there to be a Qi Refinement cultivator in Huiquan Alley.

Shen Ping cupped his hands respectfully and bowed. “Senior, I’m a cultivator from the 13th small courtyard in the south. Seeing that the door is open today, I specially brought my Dao Companion to visit.”

“Please come in.” The middle-aged cultivator politely opened the courtyard door.

They arrived at the hall. A gentle female cultivator walked out of the bedroom, along with a girl about five years old. She had a white bell tied to her wrist, and it rang when she walked.

They exchanged a few pleasantries.

Shen Ping knew that the middle-aged Foundation Establishment Cultivator in front of him had the surname Fu. His Dao Companion was also a Foundation Establishment Cultivator with the surname Le. The two of them had long rented a place in Huiquan Alley. A few days ago, they had something on and went out. They only returned to Qingyang City after a few years.

Fellow Daoist Fu smiled and said, “It’s really admirable that Talisman Master Shen can become a guest elder of the True Treasure Pavilion at the Qi Refinement Realm. I’ve just returned. I have to travel more in the future.”

“Senior Fu is right.” As he spoke, Shen Ping handed over a Lightning Talisman.

Fellow Daoist Fu didn’t stand on ceremony. After accepting it, he handed over an exquisite array disc. “This is the Small Earth Elemental Formation that I personally refined. It has a certain level of defense and can withstand an early-stage Foundation Establishment attack for an hour. I’ll give it to Talisman Master Shen.”

Shen Ping cupped his hands. “Thank you, Senior Fu.”

The two of them could be considered to know each other.

Although Fellow Daoist Fu was at the mid-stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm and was also a Level Two array master, he did not have any airs on him. He was warm and polite and looked like a person to befriend.

Stars scattered down.

Shen Ping took out a bottle of ginseng ointment and smeared it on his wife’s fair skin. This ginseng ointment was not spiritual jade ginseng ointment, but it could strengthen the physique and nourish the spirit of ordinary mortals.

This was what he used in the recent months. Every time they had sex, his wife would have the energy to for another round or two. However, as his physique continued to increase, the medicinal effects of the ginseng ointment would not be able to keep up. It was the same for Bai Yuying and Luo Qing.

Shen Ping could only reduce the difficulty of the action. As the water on the floor increased, the shadow of the crystal lamp slowly became clear.

Bai Yuying curled up in Shen Ping’s arms, her black hair casually scattered. She looked up and said faintly, “Husband, I’m about to fall apart.”

He pinched Bai Yuying’s face. Shen Ping smiled and said, “I wonder whose voice was the loudest just now.”

Bai Yuying snorted. “It’s all because you’re too impressive!”

“How impressive is it?”

“It’s all in Ying’er’s heart!” As soon as Bai Yuying finished speaking, she blushed.

Wang Yun buried herself in the brocade blanket shyly. Luo Qing glanced at him indifferently. Her legs, which were sitting cross-legged at the head of the bed, seemed to tremble.

Shen Ping smiled proudly.

“Yu Yan, your cultivation technique seems to have reached the minor success stage.”

Yu Yan, who had her eyes closed, opened them and said with a smile, “It’s alright. I haven’t had the chance to use it yet. I’ll definitely let you experience it next time.”

Speaking of this, she retracted her smile and said seriously, “Husband, the number of sect disciples in South City has increased in the past two days. The Acacia Faction, the Danxia Sect… and many rogue cultivators. I’m afraid that the Jin Kingdom, Yue Kingdom, Chu Kingdom, and other sects have already divided the resources.

“Next, the focus of their competition might be on the markets in the Wei Kingdom. Qingyang City is the most prosperous and stable out of all the markets. Those sects will definitely not let go of this place.”

Regardless of whether the Golden Sun Sect’s Supreme Elder was still alive, it was impossible for him to return to the Wei Kingdom for the time being under the pursuit of the Buddhist Sect. The sects of the various countries would definitely take the opportunity to fight for resources and make up for their losses at Cloud Mountain Parlour.

However, Qingyang City was different. The True Treasure Pavilion’s strength here was extraordinary.

Shen Ping smiled and said, “There’s no need to worry. Qingyang City won’t be in chaos. The sects of the various countries can’t compare to the Golden Sun Sect after all. Without a Nascent Soul cultivator guarding it, they will definitely be afraid when they do things.”

Yu Yan nodded and hesitated for a moment. “Husband, that Fellow Daoist Mu…”

“Let’s wait and see.” Shen Ping shook his head gently.

Mu Jin’s choice at the Hidden Spirit House last time was indeed beyond his expectations, and his impression of her changed. However, with the virtual frame, he could see changes at any time. Moreover, ever since his wife broke through the golden frame, he had become much more cautious when accepting Dao companions.

Yu Yan did not continue this topic. “After the Golden Sun Sect retreated one after another, the rent for the shops in South City has been decreasing. Recently, Yun’er, Ying’er, and I have discussed it. We want to rent a small shop to sell the talismans, puppets, and so on that you usually make. At the same time, we can also collect some materials to facilitate our connections. Husband, what do you think?”

Shen Ping smiled and said, “Sure. The talismans are secondary. The main thing is the puppet items. I can make them relatively quickly.”

Yu Yan could not help but sigh. “Husband, you’re indeed very talented. Back then, my master spent dozens of years, but he could only make medium-grade puppets. Yet you are already proficient in making high-grade puppets. With such puppets, I believe the shop’s business will definitely prosper.”

When Shen Ping heard this, he subconsciously glanced at the white snake puppet beside him. This puppet item could indeed be said to be agile. However, it was limited by its level and materials and could not be used as a support in battle. Hence, he asked curiously, “Yu Yan, what have you used this white snake puppet for in the past?”

“What do you think I can do, Husband?” Yu Yan smiled faintly. There was already a hint of charm between her eyebrows. She stretched out her fair feet and gently placed them on the edge of the wooden bucket. Yu Yan said tacitly, “Husband, I’ll show you how to use the white snake puppet now..”
