Chapter 344 - 344 127 Xiaoyue Offers a Plan Wenqing Explores the Building

344: Chapter 127 Xiaoyue Offers a Plan, Wenqing Explores the Building 344: Chapter 127 Xiaoyue Offers a Plan, Wenqing Explores the Building Li Ping’an utilized the Spirit Transformation technique on Xuntian Xu, using less than 40% of the man-made Fountain of Youth Water compared to what his master Qing Su required.

This left Li Ping’an slightly surprised, as the Fountain of Youth Water now seemed more abundant.

After bidding farewell to the Xu family’s small temple and hurrying to Dong’an City, Li Ping’an discussed the reasons in detail with Qing Su, and in the end, they could only attribute it to the enhancement that the essence of yellow earth provided to Qing Su.

Upon arriving in Dong’an City, Li Ping’an did not rush to the Drunken Moon Tower to gather information.

Instead, he first returned to his lodgings in Dong’an City, requested his master to rest for a few days, and took out some Spirit Stones and Treasured Materials to give to Wen Ling’er as a reward for her diligent housekeeping.

After that, Li Ping’an found Elder Wei Yanzi and Yansheng, helping both to undergo a Primordial Spirit transformation.

Wei Yanzi accepted the benefits given by Li Ping’an openly.

After all, he was now top follower of the Li family; he had received many benefits already, and as they say, a heavy debt is a quiet burden—his best repayment was to work diligently.

Elder Yansheng declined several times, insisting that such precious Fountain of Youth Water should be used on younger Tianxian within the sect who had higher aptitude and better comprehension.

Elder Yansheng himself was completely satisfied with his current status in the Dao Realm.

All Li Ping’an could do was to persuade him with the excuse that “a great battle will occur in Dong’an City”, and after much discussion, he finally convinced Elder Yansheng.

After the transformation of the Primordial Spirit, Wei Yanzi’s Primordial Spirit strength declined by 10%, but his Dao Realm improved significantly, directly stepping into the Fifth-Grade Yuanxian realm.

Elder Yansheng’s rise in the Dao Realm was not as apparent, barely stepping into the rank of Eighth-Grade Tianxian.

The improvement in the quality of the Primordial Spirit brought many benefits, and it was not simply a matter of enhancing the Dao Realm.

Having completed the Spirit Transformation, the three of them sat around the desk and started to discuss the events of the various market towns.

Elder Yansheng said slowly, “I thought the Blood Fiend Hall would seek crazy revenge, but everything is relatively stable, and the shops of various families are operating normally.”

Wei Yanzi chuckled, “The Blood Fiend Hall has lost four Blood Fiends in a row, it’s as if they’ve lost an arm.

They should be behaving for the time being.”

“We must not be careless or underestimate the enemy.”

Li Ping’an tapped his fingers against the edge of the desk as numerous thoughts flittered through his mind, his gaze inadvertently falling upon his master meditating nearby.

He spoke softly, “Steward, go have a stroll around the Drunken Moon Tower.”

“To buy information?”

“Just for a stroll, no need to talk about buying information,” Li Ping’an said as he pulled out a storage ring, “see if anyone approaches you to do business.”

Wei Yanzi quickly waved his hand, “I have Spirit Stones, Ping’an you shouldn’t be so extravagant.

How many Spirit Stones did the sect reward you with?”

Li Ping’an smiled, “I had received another batch from my father before I left home, and previously I obtained quite a few treasures while exterminating demons in the southeastern part of the Western Continent.

Steward, take and use them…

However, these Spirit Stones are only for you to drink, chat, and buy information.

If you want to seek pleasure in the Drunken Moon Tower, to rekindle past affections with your old flames, you must not use the Spirit Stones from here.”

Wei Yanzi shuddered a few times, then looked back at Elder Yansheng’s weathered face.

Elder Yansheng took a puff of his tobacco pipe and exhaled slowly, “If Ping’an has sent you, then just go.

This is important business.”

“Well, okay,” Wei Yanzi sighed, “Elder, rest assured, I will reform and lead a quiet life for a few years, and then find a decent partner.”

“Hmph!”

Elder Yansheng snorted heavily through his nose, while Li Ping’an almost laughed out loud next to him.

This was probably a case of ‘every man has his match’.

Li Ping’an did not ask Wei Yanzi to pay attention to Sun Yingying.

Sending Wei Yanzi there was merely a ploy to test the waters; if the Drunken Moon Tower’s owner proactively sought business with Wei Yanzi, they could determine that the Drunken Moon Tower had no extra dealings with the Blood Fiend Hall.

“Elder Yansheng, order someone to prepare some fine wine and dishes, enough for three thousand people.

I’ll secretly visit the military camp outside the city later and meet with a few generals there,” Li Ping’an said.

“Hmm, alright,” Elder Yansheng responded solemnly, “This is important.

I will personally oversee it.”

“Thank you, Elder.”

Li Ping’an bowed his hands, and Elder Yansheng’s figure disappeared into the smoke.

With nothing else to do, Li Ping’an leaned back in his chair, stretched, and decided to close his eyes and concentrate, continuing to ponder the “Wanyun Jue” and “Spirit Transformation Technique.”

Cultivation must never be neglected.

Before long, Wen Ling’er brought over a cup of tea, hesitating as if she had something to say.

Li Ping’an said, “Just speak if you have something to say.”

“Well, Little Ancestor,”

Wen Ling’er looked up at Li Ping’an’s profile, finding her young master’s jawline particularly attractive, then averted her gaze and spoke softly:

“I’m idle here anyway, can I help out at the shop?”

“No, focus on your cultivation.”

“Oh,” Wen Ling’er responded, her mouth turning down as she turned to leave.

Suddenly Li Ping’an chuckled, “Aren’t you going to ask why not?”

With her lips pursed, Wen Ling’er said in a slightly aggrieved tone, “As a servant like me, I can only ask if I may or may not, I can’t ask why.”

“You’re too weak.

If you get captured by demon cultivators, many of my secrets would be exposed,” Li Ping’an opened his eyes and said, quite seriously:

“If you want to go out, I’ll have to place a restriction on your Primordial Soul, the kind that will cause your Primordial Soul to explode if someone tries to search your memory.”

Wen Ling’er shuddered, hurried away in small steps.

Li Ping’an said gently, “The restriction can be lifted once you are back.”

“No, no!”

Wen Ling’er quickened her pace and ducked behind the screen to hide beside Qing Su.

Li Ping’an shook his head with a smile and closed his eyes to continue his cultivation.

An hour later.

Wei Yanzi, holding up the hem of his Daoist robe, rushed up to Li Ping’an.

“Ping’an!

I’ve got news!

Big news!”

“Oh?” Li Ping’an smiled, “Steward, no rush.

Sit down and talk slowly, have some tea first.”

Wei Yanzi picked up the now-cold tea and gulped down a couple of mouthfuls, his mustache curling upwards, eyes shining brightly.
