"Young man, you don't have a place to stay in the Ruin Realm, so you might as well stay here for now."
Zhou Ying's mother then said to Su Chen with a smile.
"Won't it be too much trouble?"
Su Chen said a bit embarrassedly.
Although he didn't have a place to stay, for Su Chen, this wasn't a big problem.
Besides, when he was in the Nether Temple before, he often went out without any place to stay for one or two months and lived quite well.
"It's no trouble at all."
Upon hearing Su Chen's words, Zhou Ying quickly replied:
"We still have two or three vacant rooms at ho."
"That's right, it's not a hassle, don't be too polite."
Zhou Ying's mother glanced at Zhou Ying and also smiled, while Zhou Ying's father remained silent, still looking at him sowhat scrutinizingly.
Then Zhou Ying ran off to tidy up a room for Su Chen, while Zhou Ying's mother went to cook.
"Co inside and have a seat."
At this mont, Zhou Ying's father said, and then led Su Chen into the main hall, sitting down beside a square dining table.
The table was already mottled, evidently quite old.
Su Chen looked around. Although the room was old, it was cleaned very well!
"Are you at the Condensation Pill Realm?"
After a mont of silence between them, Zhou Ying's father spoke up.
"Yes, I just broke through not long ago."
Su Chen nodded in response.
"I heard that cultivation resources outside are quite scarce. It's impressive that you've reached the Condensation Pill Realm at such a young age."
Zhou Ying's father said, although it seed that he didn't really pay much attention to this young man.
"You sit for a while, we'll start eating soon, I have so matters to attend to."
Said Zhou Ying's father.
"Uncle, go ahead, don't mind ."
Su Chen smiled and said.
Zhou Ying's father nodded, then went outside through a small side door in the yard...
...
Su Chen didn't mind and just sat there, thinking about the won in the manor, wondering if they missed him.
As he thought about it, a smile appeared on his lips...
It's nice to be missed by and to miss soone.
After a while, Zhou Ying had already tidied up Su Chen's room and then ca over.
"It's been a while, and you've beco even more beautiful!"
Seeing Zhou Ying approach, Su Chen joked with a smile.
"No, I haven't."
Zhou Ying responded, a bit shyly, then looked at Su Chen:
"By the way, why did it take you so long to co over?"
"Wasn't I busy?"
Su Chen said with a smile.
If the won in the manor heard this, they would certainly say, "What busy?", aside from cultivation, he was busy teasing them!
"Here, this is for you."
Su Chen suddenly rembered sothing, took out a few small porcelain bottles from Cang Yue, and placed them on the table in front of Zhou Ying.
"What are these?"
Zhou Ying asked curiously.
"Open them and you'll see."
Su Chen said with a smile.
Hearing this, Zhou Ying picked up a small porcelain bottle and opened it, imdiately a rich herbal aroma ca out!
"Elixirs?!"
Zhou Ying said with a slight shock.
"Didn't I ntion last ti that if I ca, I'd bring so for you."
Su Chen said with a slight smile.
Upon hearing this, Zhou Ying felt sowhat moved. She had thought Su Chen was just saying it, but unexpectedly, he rembered!
Su Chen then introduced the nas and effects of these elixirs to Zhou Ying!
Zhou Ying also opened each one to take a look, then pushed the porcelain bottles back to Su Chen:
"I'll just take a few healing pills, I can't accept the rest!"
"Why?"
Su Chen asked in surprise, not thinking much of her only wanting the healing pills, maybe just in case!
"These elixirs are too precious!"
Zhou Ying said solemnly, although she didn't know their exact value, she could tell they were extraordinary!
She didn't want anything initially, but thinking about her father's internal injuries, shalessly asked for a few!
Upon hearing this, Su Chen understood, smiled, and said:
"It's nothing. These elixirs aren't hard for to make, just take them."
Actually, so of these elixirs were newly refined by Su Chen, even better in effect than before.
However, they were still considered low-level in the "Elixir Chapter" of the Laws Forbidden To!
Su Chen indeed had the ability to refine better ones, mainly constrained by the fire and herbs, as the Myriad dicine Pavilion didn't have every kind of herb!
"Well..."
Hearing this, Zhou Ying was still a bit hesitant.
"How about this, if you still feel uneasy, consider these elixirs as rent for living here."
Su Chen said with a smile, then deliberately said with a serious face:
"If you still don't accept, I'll be unhappy, which ans you don't consider a friend."
"Then... I'll accept them."
Zhou Ying said awkwardly.
With Su Chen saying that, she had to accept, even though she knew he was just pretending to be angry.
As for what he said about rent, it was even more of a joke, given the value of these elixirs compared to a bit of rent!
Seeing her accept, Su Chen also smiled, and then the two continued chatting.
After a while, Zhou Ying's father returned, Zhou Ying's mother also finished cooking, and then Su Chen sat down to dinner with Zhou Ying's family.
During dinner, of course, everyone chatted while eating, and Su Chen learned more about so things.
For example, Zhou Ying's father was one of the managers in the Ji Family, having so small authority, which was how they got such a small courtyard.
Su Chen could see that although this family lived simply, it was very warm!
After dinner, Zhou Ying led Su Chen to his room, which was indeed very tidy, with clean bedding and everything.
"Su Chen, it's a bit simple here, please make do."
Zhou Ying said sowhat apologetically.
"This is very nice."
Su Chen said with a smile, content with the clean surroundings.
"Su Chen, there's a small room next door where you can take a bath, I've already heated the water."
At this mont, Zhou Ying's mother also ca in, holding two sets of hemp clothes, and said with a smile:
"These are two sets of clothes I made for Zhou Ying's father by hand. After bathing, you can put them on, dressing like this is not convenient in the Ruin Realm."
"Thank you, Aunt Jiang."
Su Chen said quickly. Zhou Ying's mother's na was Jiang Ping, which is why Su Chen addressed her so.
This ti, he didn't refuse, indeed, it was sowhat inconvenient to walk around the Ruin Realm in his current attire.
"They're nothing special, it's fine if you don't mind."
Jiang Ping said with a smile:
"Alright, you guys talk, I'll leave you to it."
With that, Jiang Ping left...
Zhou Ying chatted with Su Chen for a while, then stood up and said:
"Take a bath first, and rest early after that."
"Alright."
Su Chen nodded, escorted Zhou Ying out of the room, and then took a set of clothes to bathe...
