Chapter 1582: Chapter 1576: Leisure (Part 2)
The days just before National Day were very quiet.
Go to class!
Meet up with Gu Xiaoxian for meals.
In between, he and Ding Yueqiu would "chat" about their not-so-long lives on campus, and both of them enjoyed it.
After all, the places they picked were basically every corner of the school.
Over at Zhu Ying’s place.
The gatekeeping auntie already treated Lin Xi like he was invisible.
As for what Lin Xi was doing with Teacher Zhu every day, she had no idea.
Maybe... tutoring!
At night he definitely slept at home, with Bai Bing there, and the two little ones.
Only before that, he would go have a meal with Xi Xiaoyi and pick up the kid after school.
Then do some activities that are good for body and mind.
Wang Xian still hadn’t come back.
And nothing had gone wrong over in the Rice Grain Firm Country.
Yang Feifei was still in some remote area.
Looks like it’ll be a while before she returns.
Her older sister, Yang Xin, was nowhere to be found.
Of course, he hadn’t gone asking around.
If he did ask, Old Master Lin would definitely tell him.
After all, he was Yang Xin’s savior.
Principal Lin’s injuries couldn’t possibly heal in one go.
Judging from earlier, she’d need to lie there at least another five days or more before she could fully recover.
Only even once she recovered, she might not return to Chuzhou City right away.
As for that woman Shangguan Nishang, ever since all four of the family’s Grand Elders broke through to the Innate realm...
Her whole person just got insanely busy.
Her, yeah!
She’s practically the same type as Bai Bing.
A workaholic.
But a workaholic is a workaholic; compared to Bai Bing, her talent for business was still huge.
However, the resources were good.
Her business was getting better and better.
After all, with four Innates sitting in town.
Which family...
Would dare provoke the Shangguan family?
Which family or what power would dare not give the Shangguan family face?
Even more than ninety percent of powers and clans were very willing to give the Shangguan family face.
After all, they weren’t idiots.
Only by building good ties could they have better development later.
There was one important person.
Of course Lin Xi wasn’t going to forget.
That was Zhou Yan, whom he casually called Big "Bear" Sis!
Her, yeah!
She was also a workaholic.
Or rather, she’d been one from start to finish.
Which gave Lin Xi quite a headache.
From his return up till now, he’d hardly spent any time with Zhou Yan.
Just those two times.
Yeah.
Those two times, of course, ended with Zhou Yan utterly exhausted.
And Lin Xi naturally wouldn’t miss that chance.
Since he couldn’t find her normally...
Then once he did, he had to properly have a round.
So much so!
That now Zhou Yan was actually scared to see Lin Xi.
Seriously.
Just not human.
How could someone have that kind of stamina.
Of course, that was really just her excuse.
She treated work like it was her life.
Before, Lin Xi had talked to her boss’s boss and told them not to dump so much work on her.
Like the dangerous missions.
The boss’s boss absolutely followed through.
But they were helpless too.
What Zhou Yan was busy with now wasn’t stuff they assigned.
It was all things Zhou Yan went out and found herself.
Relying on her strength, she was already an Advanced Soldier King.
She had zero fear when it came to criminals.
In fact, the criminals in Chuzhou City were already trembling.
All scared of this female demon that had been spreading in the rumors recently.
She was just too brutal.
No matter how many of you there were, you still weren’t her match.
Instead, you’d get beaten until you doubted your life, doubted whether the whole world had changed.
How could there be...
A woman that strong.
On this, Lin Xi could only say, that’s because you haven’t seen Mengmeng when she goes berserk.
Even if you multiplied your numbers by another dozen times and armed yourselves, you’d still get completely crushed.
Because Xiang Juan wasn’t even eighteen, whenever Lin Xi went over he would just crack jokes and chat with Elder Xiang.
Elder Xiang’s days now were much better than before.
After all, the developer had made up the compensation for them.
Even over-compensated.
And gave them a storefront.
Better location, plus his exquisite skills in traditional Chinese medicine.
The customers coming in were more than ten times what they used to be.
The income naturally multiplied over and over.
Before, there was only him in the shop, with Xiang Juan helping out after school and such.
Now they definitely didn’t have enough hands.
So he saw a recruitment notice hanging in front of the shop.
Something like, three thousand a month, and they’d also teach you some TCM knowledge.
On this!
Lin Xi knew that kind of hiring would honestly be easy.
Even if the salary wasn’t high.
But TCM knowledge...
That was ancestral treasure passed down.
Plus, his reputation wasn’t small.
He figured once someone with a mind for it saw, there’d be plenty of people coming to apply.
Lin Xi did have one concern.
Which was that someone as simple as Xiang Juan might get tricked away by somebody.
She was just that pretty.
So Lin Xi told Xu Hong and Wenhai to keep an eye on the place.
Of course, it wasn’t just for Xiang Juan.
He knew Elder Xiang wouldn’t let anything happen to Xiang Juan, and that Xiang Juan wouldn’t just get abducted.
Simple is simple.
But simple doesn’t mean stupid.
So these few days!
To speak seriously, Lin Xi was actually fairly busy.
He pretty much had no free time.
But for someone like him, a mid-stage Innate powerhouse, there was absolutely no pressure at all.
On the contrary, he felt more at ease.
Even his cultivation speed had picked up a bit.
Plus the frequent yin-yang dual cultivation, which did give his improvement a certain boost.
That energy, given his current strength, counted as small.
But though small, that energy carried a kind of mysterious power.
Maybe it was precisely because of this that life could shine so bright.
This took up more than eighty percent of Lin Xi’s time.
As for the rest, he didn’t really do much.
Peng Bo, Xiong Haitao, and Cui Hua, he didn’t say much to them.
Just like with Xu Hong and Wenhai.
Their strength was climbing steadily.
Or rather, rapidly, under the new pills.
It wouldn’t be long before they broke through again.
If we’re talking about who felt the most at ease these days, that’d be Gu Long.
He cherished this period very, very much.
Finally no major incidents happened.
He could take a breather.
The giant bear at home was also steadily improving.
Yeah.
Not in strength.
But in weight.
Lin Xi vaguely worried whether that would affect its health.
Only after he gave it a checkup did he realize that the fatter this guy got, the healthier it seemed.
This!
Was damn weird.
Maybe it was a racial advantage.
The Ginseng King had been a bit excited recently.
Lin Xi could feel that the villa’s Spiritual Energy Value, which had been stuck for a while, suddenly started rising again in the past few days.
The speed wasn’t slow either.
Lin Xi called the Ginseng King out; even before it spoke, he already roughly knew.
Which was that the Ginseng King’s strength had improved.
Before it only had the strength of an Advanced Soldier King; now, it was already a Peak Soldier King.
For humans, following Lin Xi for so long just to level up once was a bit slow.
But Lin Xi knew that their kind leveled up especially slowly.
Compared to humans, being ten-plus times slower was normal.
So being able to break through one tier now was actually rapid growth.
