Chapter 526: Five hundred and twenty-four, don’t want to miss out.

"My husband was transferred here, so I followed. We still have a house in Cloud City, and I’ve always had someone help take care of it," Luo Shu said with a smile.

When they had first met, she knew he was a high-level expert, but at that time she was just a Martial Cultivator, so she couldn’t discern his Cultivation level. Only now did she realize that his Cultivation had reached the Mid Stage Nascent Soul.

"How come you married so early?" the old man exclaimed in surprise. If he remembered correctly, wasn’t she only nineteen?

Luo Shu smiled and nodded, "Waiting too long, I was afraid I’d miss out." In her past life, she and Hanmo had missed out on each other. If she had been as proactive as she was in this life, perhaps they would have been together in that past life as well.

A trace of sadness flickered in the old man’s eyes as he nodded in agreement, "You’re a True Cultivator now, right?" Seeing Luo Shu nod, he continued, "You cultivate very quickly, I can’t even see your strength, what is your level of Cultivation now?"

"Late Stage of Spirit Division Peak," Luo Shu answered. After returning from The Lost Space, she had been cultivating using the manuals from Xiao Qing’s Palace, and her strength had significantly improved, especially after recently practicing from the Dual Cultivation Secret Manual. She was only a step away from reaching Mahayana now, but that step was as hard as climbing to the heavens.

The old man’s eyes widened in shock, and after looking at Luo Shu for a long time, he sighed, "You truly are a Cultivation genius!" It had taken him two hundred years to barely reach Nascent Soul, yet in just over two years, she had far surpassed him.

"Grandpa Ning! How did you end up running a restaurant here?" Luo Shu didn’t want to talk too much about the topic of True Cultivation. Her Cultivation level had risen so rapidly because, apart from having her own space, opportunities were indispensable. Had she not gone to the True Cultivation World or The Lost Space, her Cultivation level definitely wouldn’t have increased so quickly.

"After leaving Cloud City, I wandered everywhere, and liking the scenery here, I decided to stay," the old man said, a tinge of sadness in his eyes. When they were young, she chased after him, but he was absorbed in his Cultivation and left for distant lands. By the time he wished to find her, she was no longer in this world. This was her hometown, so he chose to stay here.

"Don’t you want to go back and see?" Luo Shu asked. From the hint of sadness in his eyes, she knew he was also a person with a story. But since he didn’t wish to talk about it, naturally, she wouldn’t ask.

"I am quite content here," the old man said with a smile, shaking his head. Although she was gone, being here, he could often visit her grave, talk to her, and clear the weeds from her resting place. It felt as if she was still by his side.

After chatting with the old man for a while, Luo Shu bid her farewell and left. She and Zhang Xiaoling needed to hurry back to the training camp to make cakes.

Originally, Zhang Xiaoling could handle baking ten catties of cake alone, but fifty catties was a bit too much for her. Moreover, the cakes needed to be bagged, and they had to deliver them early the next morning. If it was all left to her, they would surely run out of time.

"Luo Shu, why don’t we ask a few sisters-in-law to help us bag the cakes?" Zhang Xiaoling looked at Luo Shu, seeking her opinion. She had been thinking about this issue while eating. If the cake sale went well, just the two of them wouldn’t be able to keep up. However, she was worried that the cake-making skills might get out if they asked for help, possibly leading to people sabotaging them behind their backs.

"You decide on this matter," Luo Shu said with a smile. She had no objections to hiring help, as she was only involved in the early stages to guide Zhang Xiaoling on a path she had to walk by herself.

"Then, whom should we ask?" Zhang Xiaoling was somewhat undecided.

"Do you have people you trust?" Luo Shu asked. She seldom interacted with the wives of the guards, so she wasn’t sure which of them might be more reliable.

Zhang Xiaoling thought for a moment and said, "I mostly interact with you, Sister-in-law Li from next door, and Sister-in-law Wang."

"How about you just ask Sister-in-law Li and Sister-in-law Wang first?" Luo Shu suggested.

"Okay!" Zhang Xiaoling nodded, smiling.

Returning to the training camp, Luo Shu and Zhang Xiaoling each went home to start making cakes.

"Xiao Ling is back!" Aunt Li greeted with a smile upon seeing Zhang Xiaoling carrying a basket. These past few days, she had been enjoying Zhang Xiaoling’s cakes quite frequently.

Zhang Xiaoling nodded with a smile, "Auntie Li, do you have time today?"

"Yes, I do. What’s up?" Aunt Li asked cheerfully.

"You see, I’m in the cake business, and they’ve asked me to make another delivery tomorrow. Not only is the quantity needed larger this time, but we also need to package them in bags. I’ve already bought the bags, and I was wondering if you could help me with packaging? Of course, I wouldn’t expect you to do it for nothing—I’ll pay you one cent for each bag. What do you think?" Zhang Xiaoling inquired.

"That would be great! I was just wondering what to do," Aunt Li replied excitedly. The chance to earn money was naturally welcome.

"Alright then, I’m going to make the cakes now, and I’ll call you when I’m done," Zhang Xiaoling said with a smile before she headed towards her own house.

"Xiao Ling, how come you didn’t call me for such a good opportunity?" Aunt Wang came out from the neighboring house, looking at Zhang Xiaoling with a grin. Although she felt a bit displeased inside, she didn’t show it on her face. Zhang Xiaoling was like the God of Wealth; how could she dare to offend her?

"Of course, it would be great if Sister-in-law Wang is willing to help. I’ll go back to making cakes, and once I’m done, I’ll call for you." The volume of cakes would increase further in the future, and the only wives of the guards she got along with were just them, and she was counting on them.

Zhang Xiaoling returned home and began making cakes. Since she and Luo Shu were each doing half, it took her just over two hours.

After cutting the finished cakes into pieces, she placed them on trays, specially bought for cake-making.

Looking at the two full trays of cakes, Zhang Xiaoling’s face was filled with happiness. The sales outlet had requested even more cakes this time, and as more people learned about the cakes, the business was sure to improve. If it were just Luo Shu and her, they definitely wouldn’t be able to keep up. It seems she needed to discuss this further with Luo Shu.

Inviting Sister-in-law Li and Sister-in-law Wang over, she had them wash their hands and wear masks, teaching them how to package. This was Luo Shu’s instruction; she said the most important thing about making food was hygiene. Otherwise, they wouldn’t be able to last long on this path.
