Cultivation: From Servant to Revered Immortal Chapter 262 - 10: Lin Xueying Arrives!
Cloud Light Sect, Master Jin Hong’s Cave Mansion.
Upon returning to the sect, Sunx Yuanque ca to pay his respects to Master Jin Hong and report on the results of this trip.
"Yuanque, how was the trip, what did Zhou Xiaoyou say?"
As soon as he saw Sunx Yuanque, Master Jin Hong couldn’t wait to ask.
Previously, in White Cloud Immortal City, he was very interested in this junior, who had a close relationship with his Dao partner’s family.
He greatly admired Zhou Xun’s actions when guarding the Immortal City.
Furthermore, Zhou Xun had just joined White Cloud Immortal City, so their relationship wasn’t very close.
This gave him the thought of recruiting him.
"It’s about halfway done, Brother Zhou has agreed to refine elixirs for us, but he still needs so ti to consider joining the sect!"
Sunx Yuanque reported without reservation.
"Hmm... not bad!"
"If he had joined us so easily, my evaluation of him would have been lower by a few points!"
"But since he chose to cooperate with us, joining will beco a logical outco over ti!"
Master Jin Hong nodded slightly, clearly very pleased with the outco of the trip.
"By the way, what terms did you negotiate?" Master Jin Hong asked casually.
"We agreed to refine five furnaces of elixir every month, settling accounts every three months!"
"But Brother Zhou recently broke through to Tier Two High-Grade Alchemist, with a success rate of only about fifty percent, so he requires ten furnaces of spirit dicine per month to ensure pill production rate,"
"Also, I promised him an annual reward of ten thousand spirit stones!"
These are the terms we agreed upon.
Hearing this, Master Jin Hong nodded approvingly:
"As expected from soone Master White Cloud accepted under special circumstances, truly an alchemy genius, reaching a fifty percent success rate just a few years after breaking through!"
"You’ve done well, I’ll arrange for soone to allocate the spirit dicine to you, and every three months, you can contact him!"
"Serving the sect is a duty that disciples should do without hesitation!" Sunx Yuanque bowed in response.
"Mm, Zong Yi indeed has a good grandson!"
Zong Yi is nad Sunx Zongyi, he is Sunx Yuanque’s grandfather, with Fake Pill Cultivation, known as Master Zong Yu.
"Disciple takes his leave!"
Then, Sunx Yuanque left Master Jin Hong’s cave mansion.
Afterwards, he headed to the Hundred Spirits Hall, received materials for thirty furnaces, and once again set out towards Wangchuan Lake.
However, he was not going alone this ti.
...
The distance between Wangchuan Lake and Cloud Light Sect is less than two hundred thousand miles.
Under Sunx Yuanque’s swift travel, it took just over ten days to arrive, and with him ca soone Zhou Xun never expected.
"Xueying... why... why are you here!"
A gentle and elegant woman, charming and delicate as snow, with a graceful and enchanting figure, her long hair smooth like silk, appeared before him.
She gazed at him longingly, with slightly reddened eyes, looking pitifully pretty!
The last ti they t was during Lin Xueying’s Foundation Establishnt celebration.
That was over thirty years ago.
Keep in mind, Zhou Xun and Lin Xueying’s ages were just over sixty,
So they hadn’t seen each other for over half of their lives.
Now they finally t again.
At this mont, Lin Xueying had an added charm compared to her younger self.
If she was a crisp apple before, now she was a ripe peach.
"Zhou Lang!"
Seeing Zhou Xun again, Lin Xueying couldn’t help but call out, disregarding Sunx Yuanque beside her.
Sunx Yuanque, hearing this form of address, opened his mouth in surprise.
"Senior Sister, you... you and Brother Zhou..."
Unexpectedly, Lin Xueying, known as the number one beauty in the sect with nurous admirers, was affectionate towards Zhou Xun, this loose cultivator.
If those admirers in the sect knew, they would probably be heartbroken.
"Zhou Lang and I have known each other since childhood, and our lifelong bond was long established!"
Lin Xueying also regained her composure and explained.
Upon hearing this, Sunx Yuanque gave a bitter smile.
He was also one of Lin Xueying’s admirers.
In fact, the vast majority of young Foundation Establishnt Cultivators in Cloud Light Sect admired her.
Lin Xueying was not only exceptionally talented but also breathtakingly beautiful, and she was the only direct disciple of Master Fengyue.
One could say she had talent, background, and looks — the complete package.
Who wouldn’t love such a person?
This ti, when Lin Xueying proposed to accompany him to Wangchuan Lake, he saw it as an opportunity to get closer.
Unexpectedly, during the journey, this senior sister showed him no kindness whatsoever, leading him to think she was not very talkative.
Now he finally knew the truth: she had long had soone in her heart, and it was none other than the well-acquainted Zhou Xun.
However, he quickly composed himself, wearing a smile, and sincerely clasped his hands towards Zhou Xun and Lin Xueying, saying:
"Senior Sister... Brother Zhou, you hid it well from !"
"Well then, Yuanque congratulates Senior Sister and Brother Zhou on joining hands and wishes for eternal immortality!"
"In that case, thank you, Brother Sun!"
Zhou Xun reciprocated the gesture.
Lin Xueying also returned the gesture, bowing slightly to Sunx Yuanque.
Seeing the couple respond in harmony, Sunx Yuanque only felt his presence there was sowhat redundant.
Then he patted his storage bag on his waist, and dozens of spirit lights flashed.
Countless precious spirit dicines piled into a small hill.
"Brother Zhou, here are twenty-four furnaces of spirit dicine!"
"I need you to refine five furnaces of Healing Pills and ten furnaces of Qi Recovery Pills, three months later, I’ll co to Wangchuan Lake again!"
Hearing this, Zhou Xun squatted down and carefully inspected.
They were all materials for refining Tier Two High-Grade Healing Pills and Qi Recovery Pills.
The quantity and types were correct, and the dicinal power was extrely sufficient, all rare and good dicines.
He imdiately patted the Storage Bag, collecting all the Spirit dicine into it.
Seeing this, Sunx Yuanque spoke again:
"Brother Zhou, is there anything you need during this ti?"
"Won’t Brother Sunx stay a little longer?" Zhou Xun tried to persuade him.
"Forget it, if I stay any longer, I’m afraid my senior sister will have sothing to say!" Sunx Yuanque laughed heartily.
"By the way, does Daoist Sunx want to purchase so Healing Pills and Qi Recovery Pills?"
"Naturally, in Brother Sunx’s na!"
Zhou Xun smiled slightly as he recalled sothing.
"Oh... in just one month, Brother Zhou has already refined new Spirit Pills?"
Indeed, Sunx Yuanque was interested.
Given the current situation, these two kinds of Elixirs were practically priceless yet unavailable and sold out quickly, with prices already doubled.
As long as he got the Elixirs, they ant a hefty inco in Spirit Stones.
"Haha, the quantity isn’t large, worth about ten thousand Spirit Stones in total!"
As he spoke, Zhou Xun took out several Elixir Bottles.
All the High-Tier Spiritual dicine from Xing Huai’an’s Storage Bag last ti fell into Zhou Xun’s hands.
Therefore, Zhou Xun didn’t lack Spirit dicine at all.
What he took out to trade with Sunx Yuanque was just a small part.
Taking out too much at once would be hard to explain and might provoke people’s greed.
He understood the saying, "an innocent man gets into trouble because he has wealth."
"I’ll take them all!"
Sunx Yuanque imdiately took out Spirit Stones, pocketed the Elixirs, and then bid farewell.
...
After Sunx Yuanque left, Zhou Xun returned to the Cave Mansion with Lin Xueying.
At this mont, Lin Xueying t Song Yiqing.
"Yiqing greets Sister Lin!"
Upon seeing Lin Xueying, Song Yiqing guessed her identity and bowed in salute.
At this ti, her charming face slightly lowered, revealing a reluctant smile that was heart-wrenching.
Song Yiqing had long known that Zhou Xun’s Dao companion was Lin Xueying, whom he had known since childhood, but Lin Xueying had been cultivating in the Cloud Light Sect, which was why they never lived together.
For today’s scenario, she had been ntally prepared but never expected it to co so quickly.
Her heart was not as calm as she imagined.
She thought she could accept it, but when it truly happened, it was still so painful, and a bit of jealousy lingered.
"This must be Sister Qing’er, indeed charming and lovely. Even I can’t help but pity her upon seeing."
Lin Xueying glanced sideways and glared fiercely at Zhou Xun beside her.
She then took Song Yiqing’s wrist and carefully observed her.
"Oh, I almost forgot, I brought a gift for my sister!"
Saying this, she patted the Storage Bag, took out a jade bracelet, and placed it on Song Yiqing’s wrist.
"This is a Top-Grade Defensive Spiritual Artifact ’Jade Bracelet,’ which can automatically activate a Tier Two Middle-Grade Defense Light Shield. It’s for you today, sister!"
"Thank you, sister!"
Song Yiqing bowed in gratitude.
Lin Xueying’s warmth and kindness eased her mind slightly.
She couldn’t help but feel ashad of her own jealous thoughts.
So she spoke up:
"Sister and husband have been reunited after a long ti and must have a lot to talk about, so Qing’er will take leave first!"
"What’s there to talk to him about? We sisters are eting for the first ti; we should have a good chat. Co on, let’s go out and ignore him!"
Saying this, Lin Xueying grabbed Song Yiqing’s hand and walked outside.
As she turned to glance at Zhou Xun’s figure, she glared again.
Zhou Xun couldn’t help but smile bitterly at this.
Unexpectedly, won in this world still get mad, and get jealous!
But fortunately, Song Yiqing and Lin Xueying were both understanding people.
...
At night.
In the bedroom, Zhou Xun and Lin Xueying embraced each other.
"What did you and Yiqing talk about today?" Zhou Xun couldn’t help but ask curiously.
"Hmph, why do you want to know about a girl’s matters?"
"Over these years, you’ve surely enjoyed yourself, having such a good girl like Qing’er to serve you!"
Thinking of this matter, Lin Xueying was sowhat angry.
She hadn’t expected that when she wasn’t by Zhou Xun’s side, he would take a concubine. After receiving this news back then, she had blad Zhou Xun for quite a while.
Seeing this, Zhou Xun had to coax Lin Xueying a little.
However, Lin Xueying also knew that Zhou Xun, as a Foundation Establishnt Cultivator, and even a genius Alchemy Master, it was normal for him to have so concubines.
She just hadn’t seen him in a long ti and used this opportunity to act spoiled, wanting to feel Zhou Xun’s affection.
Once Zhou Xun coaxed her, she naturally went along with it.
Seeing Lin Xueying calm down, Zhou Xun also breathed a sigh of relief.
He really hadn’t expected that, traveling to this world, he would still have to experience a Xiuluo Scene!
Suddenly, the delicate hand in his embrace nudged him, and Zhou Xun glanced down.
Only to see the beauty’s blushing face with a shy deanor, her voice like a mosquito was getting smaller and smaller:
"Zhou Lang~"
"We... we haven’t... haven’t in decades!"
Zhou Xun, understanding the hint, laughed heartily.
He turned over...
Sleepless singing through the night.
The next morning, Lin Xueying lay contentedly in Zhou Xun’s arms.
The two began to discuss the important matters.
"I was able to co out this ti because my master, Master Fengyue, has erged from seclusion!"
