Chapter 142: 101, 102. The waves and clouds are strange and changeable, Divine Soul gathers objects for Manifestation (thanks to the ally "Boole")_3

After a brief moment of thought, Miss An acutely grasped something and exclaimed in surprise, "Song, have you encountered something lately?"

Song Cheng fell silent.

Miss An said, "You have to tell me. If you don’t, I’ll get mad."

Song Cheng, too, was moved by how incredibly astute his wife was so he sighed and said, "Indeed, I have, but I was afraid it would affect you and the child, so I didn’t plan to tell you."

Miss An said, "Not telling me is what will cause the impact!"

Song Cheng knew Sister An’s temperament well—strong and independent. Although she could occasionally be a bit proudly capricious and play the role of a little girl from time to time, her nature was that of a "woman with strong control and ambition," even decisiveness in killing wasn’t an overstatement.

So he organized his thoughts briefly and recounted the incident with the "Invisible Four-Blade Ghost Servant."

Miss An nodded and said, "No wonder you brought me to Pearl Mountain Taoist Temple."

After that, she added, "If there truly is someone who has arranged such a grand scheme, and we’ve become involved in it, then there’s no need for my husband to go looking... Soon, the situation will come knocking on our door."

Song Cheng spoke softly, "You just rest easy, I will handle this matter."

Miss An placed her hands on his face and said softly, "Don’t wear yourself out."

After speaking, she called out, "Ling, take good care of your master."

Song Cheng: ...

Miss An said, "Ling is my concubine maid after all, and since you married me, you also need to keep her well-fed."

The lady knew that martial artists had a turbulent qi and blood that was difficult to calm. It was meant to satisfy Song Cheng, yet she playfully phrased it the other way.

She slowly rose to her feet. Ling said "Oh" and hurriedly ran over, fawning over master from behind, pounding and kneading... Once the lady had left, she rolled up her red gauze dance skirt, snuggled into his arms, and sat as immovable as if seated on a lotus pedestal.

...

...

Several days later.

There was still no follow-up on the matter of the ghost servant assassin.

And that abruptly appearing Qi Realm ghost servant seemed to be a flash in the pan, with no further trace to be found.

If not for the corpse of the ghost servant that Song Cheng had slain still being there, he would’ve almost started to doubt it himself.

Evening.

Pearl Mountain.

The supply of "Manifestation Water" had basically met the needs of each county.

And Madam Tong finally had some leisure time to dine with Song Cheng.

Miss An’s belly had slightly bulged.

This slight bulge brought immense joy to everyone, and they chatted about "whether it would be a boy or a girl," "everyone having to upgrade their generational status," and "when Jia might also have children for her husband."

Besides that, towards the end of the meal, Madam Tong took out a green jade bottle and handed it to Song Cheng, while casually eating her rice said, "The ghost servant you sent over last time has already been turned into medicine."

This kind of medicine, with two supernatural elements seamlessly fused together, was unprecedented.

The Medicine Division used the method for making Soul Strengthening Pills to utilize this ingredient, and the result was an unprecedented type of medicine.

The medicine has already been tested, it’s similar to the Soul Strengthening Pill, but the effect is much, much better.

I didn’t know what to name the medicine, so I just picked a name randomly, calling it the Great Strengthening Soul Pill.

It’s yours."

Song Cheng never doubted Madam Tong’s talent for "naming genius" because he himself wasn’t particularly good at it either.

At that moment, he took the green jade bottle.

He still remembered when he first arrived in Hanping Prefecture, he had spent eight thousand taels of silver on a bottle of Soul Strengthening Pills, only to find out he was simply transferring money from one hand to the other—buying medicine from the Thousand Treasures Pavilion of Pearl Mountain Taoist Temple, which ended up being his wife’s power base.

He played with the green jade bottle and said, "This bottle should sell for at least sixteen thousand."

With that, he glanced not far away and jokingly said, "Ling, come have a sniff, I’ll charge you twenty taels for one whiff."

Ling put down her chopsticks, seemingly recalling a demeaning past event of "two whiffs being equivalent to her one-night’s company," and pouted with a look of grievance.

Madam Tong giggled, clearly aware of the "business style" of the Medicine Division’s Thousand Treasures Pavilion.

That was a notorious shop, you buy it if you like, no obligations.

Those who sell are the lords, and those who buy are the grandsons.

She thought for a moment and said, "If the Visualization Method is harmless, I actually plan to promote it. By then, the medicines from the Thousand Treasures Pavilion will all be sold at a cheaper price to support Soul Trainers’ cultivation."

It’s just... I still have to ask my teacher about this."

The teacher went to the Northern Barbarians without even taking the Skull Double Fish Ornament, so now if we want to contact her, we can only do so through letters."

In fact, I sent the letter out long ago, mentioning in the letter her misunderstanding with Fox Immortal Su.

Considering the time, her reply shouldn’t take long."

Song Cheng nodded, then quickly finished his meal. He stood up and walked to a distant courtyard, pulled out the bottle stopper.

An extremely icy chill instantly surged forth, entering his nostrils...

The air around him seemed to freeze in that instant, even the droplets of water on the flowers beside him turned into ice immediately.

One could imagine that if he had uncorked it beside Chenyu, at the very least, it could make Chenyu shiver, or worse, it might harm the fetus in her womb.

"This substance is dangerous," Song Cheng said with a solemn expression, muttering to himself. He then asked Jia, "I’ve always had a question."

"Go ahead, what’s our relationship?" Jia replied still full of vigor.

Song Cheng said, "The last time I took the Soul Strengthening Pill, I tasted a faint ash flavor in it. Do you have anything in your ingredients that could produce such a taste?"

Jia said, "The teacher forbade me from telling anyone... but I’ll tell you alone."

Then, Madam Tong also finished her meal quickly, and after doing so, she ran off with Song Cheng.

In a short while, the two arrived at Pearl Mountain Taoist Temple’s pharmacy, deemed a restricted area.

Here lay many secrets of the Pearl Mountain.

The Weary Day Grass used for making "Manifestation Water" also stood here.

Madam Tong rummaged through bottles and jars for a while, then lifted one high and said, "This one."
