As night fell, the two casually found a place to prepare a fire for the night.
Chen Lingxiang placed the collected firewood next to the clearing and thought for a mont, saying, "Young Master Lu, why don’t we go find sothing to eat?"
Although they didn’t need to eat and could rely solely on Heaven and Earth Source Qi for circulation, finding sothing to do while traveling could prevent boredom.
Moreover, the energy from food was indeed smoother than Heaven and Earth Source Qi.
Lu Ye nodded.
A mont later, they divided the work; Chen Lingxiang went hunting, while Lu Ye arrived by a stream.
The stream was clear, with flowing water, and fish could be seen swimming back and forth, creating subtle ripples.
These fish were highly active, making it a bit difficult for ordinary people to catch them.
But for a Martial Arts Cultivator...
Lu Ye casually picked up a few stones, and a few strikes were all it took.
Soon after, the aroma of grilled fish and at wafted from the clearing where they camped.
...
Jiang Family.
Sitting across from Jiang Qingge, Jiang Lingyue was puzzled looking at her sister, whose complexion had improved significantly.
It’s strange, wasn’t my sister having a bad appetite and insomnia a couple of days ago? How has she suddenly recovered today?
I haven’t seen her take any Miracle Elixir.
Eating her porridge in small bites, Jiang Qingge noticed her sister’s strange gaze and couldn’t help but blush: "Why are you looking at ?"
"Nothing, nothing," Jiang Lingyue waved her hand, saying, "Sister, I’m already at the Postnatal First Layer. Just wait for ; I’ll soon cultivate to the Innate Realm and help you break off your marriage contract with brother-in-law."
Hearing this, Jiang Qingge paused in drinking her porridge.
Break off the marriage contract? Her and Lu Ye?
Jiang Qingge’s expression beca sowhat bewildered as she recalled when Lu Ye first ca to the Jiang Family, they said they’d break off the marriage contract when Jiang Lingyue attained the Innate Realm...
That marriage contract naturally could be annulled.
At that ti, Jiang Qingge was full of anticipation, even hoping her sister could soon reach the Innate Realm so that day would arrive quickly.
But now...
Upon hearing this again, the words "break off the marriage contract" felt a bit harsh to Jiang Qingge, even discomforting.
The sa people, a year or more ago, but her mindset had since changed.
Considering breaking off the marriage contract and facing other n, Jiang Qingge found she’d rather just stay like this with Lu Ye... that would be fine.
"Why are you bringing this up now? It’s too early to talk about this," Jiang Qingge took the initiative to change the subject: "So Miss Chen ca to explore treasure with Lu Ye?"
"Yes, yes, Sister Lingxiang does have a key to a secret treasure, but we don’t know what kind of treasure it is."
Suddenly, as if rembering sothing, Jiang Lingyue glanced at her sister’s perfectly proportioned figure, then looked at herself, and leaned forward to whisper: "Sister, I want to ask you sothing..."
"What is it? Go ahead and ask."
"Um... how can I beco as well-endowed as you?" Jiang Lingyue asked sheepishly, pointing to Jiang Qingge.
Jiang Qingge looked down...
"You silly girl, what kind of question is that? Why suddenly ask about this?"
Blushing slightly, Jiang Qingge tapped her sister’s head: "What’s going on in your mind?"
Honestly, Jiang Qingge had no idea about this issue either; she never cared about such things as it naturally developed as she aged.
She didn’t expect that she, having a husband, never concerned herself with such matters, while Jiang Lingyue, unmarried, focused on these issues.
It’s all topsy-turvy.
Suddenly, Jiang Qingge seed to recall sothing, noticing how her sister seed different these days, and countered: "Lingyue, could it be you’ve found soone you like?"
Though Jiang Qingge herself was inexperienced in male-female relationships, she realized when a girl suddenly showed interest in such matters there must be a reason.
"Woman beautifies herself for her admirer," as the saying goes.
If there’s not soone she fancies, Jiang Qingge couldn’t think why her sister would suddenly care about these things. Isn’t ti better spent practicing martial arts?
"Ah?" Jiang Lingyue flusteredly waved her hands, saying: "How... how could it be possible? No, no, sister, why do you ask? My heart is only on martial arts!"
Upon finishing this sentence, Jiang Lingyue mused to herself, "Brother-in-law... I’ll just keep you in my heart for now."
The mind and heart don’t conflict; it fits perfectly!
Isn’t it so?
Seeing her sister say this, never having lied since childhood, Jiang Qingge began to believe her.
Moreover, Jiang Qingge knew her sister well; ordinary n simply wouldn’t catch her eye.
...
Camping spot.
After so ti, Lu Ye had just got the fish he’s grilling golden brown on both sides when two figures slowly approached from the road, a man and a woman.
The man ca up cheerfully and said, "Miss Ruyan, your sense of sll is sharp; there are indeed friends grilling things over here."
Scanning them with his eyes, Lu Ye’s brow slightly furrowed; these two, without a doubt, were also Martial Arts Cultivators.
The man was at the Postnatal Seventh Layer, but the woman was even stronger, already at the Postnatal Ninth Layer.
Nad Ruyan, the woman’s deanor had a touch of charm; while she couldn’t match Chen Lingxiang’s beauty, combined with her enchanting deanor, she did possess quite an attractive aura.
Looking at the grilled fish, then the handso Lu Ye, Liu Ruyan’s eyes glead slightly.
What a handso man!
"I am Liu Ruyan; greetings to you both. It’s already nightti, and traveling is inconvenient; could I borrow so fire?"
"Yes, traveling at night is troubleso. Friends, I’m Chen Bufan, and would appreciate your kindness," the Postnatal Seventh Layer man said cupping his hands.
Perhaps fearing re requests would be t with refusal, after a mont of thought, two shiny items appeared in Chen Bufan’s hands under the firelight.
"A small token, I hope you won’t refuse."
Lu Ye glanced over and was suddenly taken aback.
What Chen Bufan took out were unexpectedly two Source Crystals!
What young master from a wealthy family has co out here?
It’s known that Source Crystals are useful even for those in the Innate Realm and Martial Arts Grandmasters.
Using them at the Postnatal Realm... honestly, it’s a bit of a waste.
Previously, when forcing the Three Yin Saint Son to hand over five Source Crystals as compensation, it was like cutting his flesh; Lu Ye could tell he was truly pained.
Now, for just borrowing so fire, Chen Bufan could pull out two...
Instantly, nurous conjectures crossed Lu Ye’s mind.
Are they from a large family or sect in Xuanzhou? Or perhaps... beyond Xuanzhou?
No one from the Northern Territory could be so lavish.
Two Source Crystals for fire; naturally, this was a trade worth making. Lu Ye nodded, lightly saying: "Traveling at night is indeed inconvenient; you two can sit."
