Chapter 228: Chapter 145 New House_2

The advantages of Divine Skills were evident now. In Huaxia, constructing such a wooden house would require consideration of material processing, structural design, foundation building, drainage systems, and myriad other issues—how could that be accomplished in just a day or two? However, many things in this world did not play by the rules, such as Divine Skills and Magic techniques.

Changtian orchestrated the completion of this small project with the God Demon Prison. He is the Artifact Spirit of this God Demon Prison, and the house was built using the abilities of the Magic Artifact itself, which did not consume much of his Divine Power.

The rustic-looking wooden house stood before her. It appeared rough because it had not undergone deep processing, which failed to reveal the beautiful grain of the pine wood. However, this did not hinder its use. Property prices in Huaxia were ridiculously high, so owning a house was not easy, hence she designed a log villa for herself, with four rooms, two living rooms, a bathroom, and a kitchen. While drafting the initial design within herself, she sighed. Indeed, city life had influenced her too much, even her new residence looked like a stereotypical matchbox.

However, the entire space was hers, so there was no need for a colonial-style veranda or anything of the sort. The living room in the finished house was spacious and circular. Of the four rooms, one was a bedroom, one was a study, and the other two were left unused for now.

She specifically requested a spacious kitchen. The kitchen at her uncle’s house was cramped, barely allowing room to turn around, hence one of her dreams had always been to have a large, bright kitchen that could foster a pleasant cooking mood. Little did she expect that this wish would only be fulfilled in the Otherworld.

Outside the wooden house, there was a long back chair. Leaning there and viewing the vibrant colors of the soil was uniquely enjoyable. Because she had bought a large number of demon corpses in Rock City, the soil busily sprouted various plants every day. It’s worth mentioning that Changtian didn’t plan to let Wen Liangyu freeload in the God Demon Prison; he was sent to take care of the Immortal Herb Garden. This guy had more planting experience than Ning Xiaoxian and Changtian, and in just a couple of days, he had already figured out the best times for cultivating various Immortal Herbs.

Wen Liangyu had planted spirit tea seeds a few days ago. While she was fully engaged with Miluo, he had already finished harvesting and processing the tea leaves, much to Ning Xiaoxian’s regret who had always wanted to observe and learn. However, new tea leaves were being stimulated, and they could be harvested again in a few days.

Another piece of great news was that Wen Liangyu finally planted the One-day Fruit. The Sixty Years Powder made from this miraculous fruit could forcibly elevate a Cultivator’s realm by two 60-years within 24 hours, with the side effects being only about a half-year of recuperation required. Such a Miracle Medicine, even if she couldn’t use it herself, could be exchanged for a massive amount of Spirit Stones.

After checking out her new residence, she left the God Demon Prison and continued her journey on horseback. It was not yet the time to relax; once she reached the interior of the Leizhou Boundary, wouldn’t she be able to rest as much as she wanted?

In the following two days, the journey was finally smooth. The little bat demons continued their diligent service as capable Scouts; they hardly encountered any big trouble along the way. There is actually an official road from Rock City to Leizhou, a safe route forged by countless merchant teams and travelers with their sweat and lives, and every qualified leader had such a map in their possession. This official road is essentially a safe route found between the scattered territories of various demon powers.

But Ning Xiaoxian didn’t have it. Relying solely on a pair of little bat demons and the God Demon Prison, she gradually approached the pass where Feng Province intersected with Leizhou. With the grand flourish of Emperor’s Fluid approaching, more and more demons woke from their dormancy, ravenously searching for food. In the last two days of travel, she had witnessed two incidents of demons fighting humans. Apparently, even traveling on the official road wasn’t so safe at this time, and even the demons would fight each other over territories.

The other day, as they passed through a bamboo forest, she heard unusual sounds that seemed like a fierce fight. Driven by curiosity, she sneaked a peek and saw indeed two demons fighting. One of them left her utterly speechless—a creature with a rotund body, chubby cheeks, and dark circles around its eyes, set off by black and white fur. F*cking hell, was that not Huaxia’s national treasure, the giant panda?! However, although the creature before her seemed clumsy, its movements were anything but. While she hid and peeked, it killed an unidentified demon and then, opening its tusk-filled mouth, ate its opponent bit by bit.

Eating the opponent is one of the ways demons supplement their demonic power and elevate their cultivation, justified by the natural order.

But seeing this, she lost all enthusiasm. In this world, even pandas had become unlovable!

Traveling at night was very unsafe. That day, it wasn’t until Yue’er rose in the east that she entered the God Demon Prison and comfortably bathed in the newly constructed bathroom. After these two days of constant alarm and fright, she needed hot water to soothe her nerves and muscles, indulging extravagantly by tossing a Fiery Fire Talisman into the water.

She had just finished drying her hair when Grand Steward Changtian called her: "Come down, try the newly made Spiritual Tea."

Wen Liangyu’s Spiritual Tea was already processed. Normally, after tea leaves are harvested, they could directly enter various stages like fixation and rolling. However, due to Ning Xiaoxian’s special request, he let the leaves undergo partial fermentation for a while, making the final product similar to the Red-edged Oolong Tea sold by Mr. Lu Yu from Rock City.

Changtian, Wen Liangyu, and Ning Xiaoxian sat on the floor. The taste of good tea is ever-changing, but let’s not delve into that now. This first batch of Spiritual Tea slowly diffused a long-lasting fragrance when it met boiling water. Wen Liangyu had tasted Spiritual Tea in his own secret tea garden, but when he took his first sip here, he squinted his eyes, taking a while before he praised: "The soil here is truly a Divine Artifact, the Spiritual Power of the tea grown here is ten times higher than in my small garden!"
