Xue Cong and Yue Jie kept quiet about his accomplishnt even though they hadn’t discussed it among themselves.
They knew he would be so proud of it if they did so.
Lin Xuan Qi shook his head at them, not bothered with it as there was sothing more important to be accomplished first.
"Take the pill and sit in lotus position, use the breathing technique I’ve taught you earlier.
"You will feel different phases of the five elents within you after you’ve taken the pill but don’t worry about it.
"The Five-Elent Qi from the Five-Elent Stone will help balance it."
He instructed them to take the pills and get ready for what would happen next.
They nodded their heads and did so imdiately, having full trust in him.
Lin Xuan Qi watched them closely as they sat in lotus position.
Their expressions changed as the effect of the Qi Concentration Pill hit them.
Warmth in their dantian made them slightly uncomfortable.
And thankfully, the Five-Elent Qi from the stone they had in their hands was absorbed into it to ease them from it.
Next, their bodies shivered a little when it was the chill from the pill.
The sa thing happened with the Five-Elent Qi being absorbed into their dantian.
Lin Xuan Qi gave out a silent sigh of relief when he saw their expressions turning calm after a while.
He let them take their ti with it while he waited next to them.
Ti passed and he didn’t know how long it took before they opened their eyes again.
Xue Cong gasped with how she was feeling.
Every breath and movent she took felt like it was the first ti for her.
Her body was filled with vitality and energy.
There was a sense that she didn’t have before and it was telling her that the Five-Elent Stone she had in her hands had that Five-Elent Qi inside it.
Yue Jie was equally surprised with the experience she had gone through.
She felt that with the Five-Elent Qi in her dantian, she could stay up all night and go through all the account books for the clan.
"Master Lin... What just happened?" They glanced at him, lost for words.
Lin Xuan Qi sat down and had a sip of his tea.
He pondered for a mont and said, "The stances that I’ve taught you would ensure that you will be in good health and have a long life.
"And you are on the very first step of it."
They nodded their heads and glanced at the crystal-looking stone they had.
Having a long life would be sothing that they had wanted too if it was what Lin Xuan Qi had.
Being able to spend the days with their husband was a luxury to them.
And they weren’t going to give it up.
...
anwhile, Yue Xin was running around like a headless chicken.
She was preparing the items to bring on the trip.
There were clothes and essential daily items like combs and brushes to take care of.
And there were things that Lin Xuan Qi had wanted like the soap and Lin Clan Taste Transcendent Essence.
These two would be crucial for the trip and she didn’t want to ss it up.
"Have you checked that the wooden chest is secured well?" Yue Xin asked when she saw the servants placing them onto the horse carriage.
The servants nodded and said, "We have secured everything thoroughly."
Yue Xin stepped forward, pushed the wooden chests with her hand and they didn’t move.
With the confirmation, she gave them a smile and said, "Thanks. I must have been too anxious about the trip."
The servants smiled back and said, "We understand."
They knew that she would have to take care of Master Lin and many other little details on this trip so they were sympathetic to her plight.
Getting anxious with the preparations was sothing that anyone would feel.
Liu Shi Shi by the side was also busy.
She was checking on the horse carriage making sure that it would be serviceable for the long journey to the Capital City, Bian Jing.
Her guards were also helping her check on it.
"I need a drink." Liu Shi Shi was more or less done and she grumbled to herself for a drink.
Yue Xin felt thirsty too and she said, "Let’s have so tea in the main hall."
They had been busy the whole day and they needed so rest.
Along the way, they kept quiet, not knowing what to say to each other.
Yue Xin was worried about whether she would be able to take good care of Lin Xuan Qi while Liu Shi Shi was worried about his safety.
Neither of them was too sure why he had wanted them on the trip but they would have to try their best and perform their duty well.
But they also knew that it was best not to be so unfamiliar with each other for the trip.
There would be matters that Yue Xin would need to coordinate with Liu Shi Shi.
Yue Xin decided to break the ice and said, "So, what is the capital like?"
Liu Shi Shi looked up into the distance, thought for a mont and said, "It is many tis bigger than Hong Feng City, and with it being so, it is much more complicated.
"There is the imperial family, cultivators, clans and families you have to be aware of.
"The young master that you cross might be the nephew of the emperor.
"So, it’s best to lie low and not cause any troubles there."
Yue Xin was surprised to hear that and said, "Nephew of the emperor? What are the odds?"
Liu Shi Shi shook her head and clarified, "It’s just an example of who you might et in Bian Jing. It might be just a distant relative of the emperor."
"I see..." Yue Xin lowered her head and took note of it.
She reminded herself that she would have to try and control her childlike impulses when they got there.
Liu Shi Shi saw her lowering her head and she shook her head.
"I will take care of you out there." She patted on the back of Yue Xin and said.
