Shen Youling snorted disdainfully. She claid she wanted to go to work alone, but in reality, she was tugging at Lin Tang's sleeve and pulling him along.
Lin Tang followed, his arm swinging. As it swung, he captured her fingers, forcing his own between hers until they were tightly interlocked.
Shen Youling glanced down at their joined hands but did not refuse or pull away.
Watching their intimate, hand-in-hand departure, Jiang Mulu's vision blurred once again. "Lin Tang, Shen Youling, do you think I'll give up so easily? I! Will! Not!"
She pouted, defiantly lifting her head. Once again, the flas of battle were ignited in her heart!
Ti flew by. Regardless of what great calamities the future held or how terrifying the Underworld's invasion might be, for now, life went on. It was ti to eat when you were hungry and sleep when you were tired. It was ti to work and ti to earn money!
Under Zhu Yingning's personal managent, and with the diligent assistance of Shen Youling, Mo Pinglan, and others, the Tianxiang Doukou Company's new dicines were officially launched nationwide.
Though Mu Ping'an had perished, Huang Chao, for reasons unknown, chose to continue their collaboration. He provided nurous shops in pri locations, allowing Tianxiang Doukou to move in. Furthermore, due to Long Tianji's indirect influence, no one dared to trouble Lin Tang, Shen Youling, or Zhu Yingning for the ti being. The normal developnt of the Tianxiang Doukou Company proceeded unimpeded, with no departnt daring to intentionally create obstacles.
So then, with the new dicines proving to be extraordinarily effective, what could possibly halt its rapid growth?
Previously, Gan Leixin and others had convened a eting abroad, planning to unite and obstruct Tianxiang Doukou. Now, that eting seed like nothing but a joke. After so investigation, they learned that the once-pompous hypnotherapist Angry and the entire Sandalwood Association had been mysteriously wiped out.
This had to be the work of the suprely powerful force behind Tianxiang Doukou! How terrifying! Who would dare to provoke such a mysterious and terrifying power, one that would annihilate an entire family over the slightest disagreent?
Just like that, the already famous Tianxiang Doukou brand transford overnight. It beca the top beauty company in the world! Its assets ballooned, and its market value skyrocketed.
Zhu Yingning was so busy she barely had ti to breathe, but she could not stop smiling from ear to ear. She did not care much about the money; it was this intoxicating sense of accomplishnt that truly srized her.
Shen Youling, thanks to her high percentage of dividends, also beca a super-rich woman. Her personal wealth was now far beyond what the entire forr Shen Family could ever compare to.
Dong Mingfeng, Shen Xin, and Shen Jiayue watched all of this with hearts full of anxiety.
Damn it! If only we hadn't fallen for Zhu Yingning's trick back then and signed that accursed declaration of disownnt! How wonderful that would have been! Now she's this massive pillar of support right before our eyes, yet we can't latch on. The feeling is truly worse than death… No, I must find a way to make Shen Youling change her heart! No matter what, she ca from my womb. I'm her mother, and that can never change! That so-called statent of disownnt isn't legally valid! No matter what a parent does, their children have a legal obligation to support them!
They plotted and sched, constantly watching for an opportunity to reconcile with Shen Youling.
Shen Youling, however, was temporarily unaware of this. On one hand, she worked hard, refusing to live off Lin Tang. She could not stomach the humiliation of asking him for money just to buy groceries. On the other, she cultivated silently, accumulating her strength and never daring to slack off.
Even though she beca a wealthy woman and bought an expensive luxury car for transportation, she never considered buying a mansion and moving. She continued to live in Lin Tang's old, shabby little house. This both flattered and shocked the neighbors in their community and utterly baffled the dia.
She's so rich now. Why doesn't she enjoy life a little?
But what drove those in the know most crazy was Lin Tang. This bastard had already defied fate by marrying a supre beauty like Shen Youling. Now that she had beco a super-rich woman, he was still completely idle, spending his days either taking strolls with Shen Qiushi or buying groceries and cooking.
How shaless could he be!
After all, very few people knew that Lin Tang was the one who provided the formula for Tianxiang Doukou's new dicines. The vast majority simply repeated what they heard, labeling him a shaful kept man and wishing they could take his place.
But despite his leisurely appearance, Lin Tang had his own troubles.
Damn it, what on earth did the Demon Spirit Ancestor do to the spiritual energy? Why can't I expel this last bit of the maddening factor, no matter what I do?
Relying on the potent evil-warding effect of his Supre Yang Body, Lin Tang had forcefully refined all the spiritual energy. He was not afraid of the maddening factor hidden within. In the end, however, he discovered that the accumulated maddening factor had not disappeared. It clung to him like a maggot on a bone, a constant, grating eyesore. This made him hesitate, not daring to advance to the Golden Core Peak and attempt a breakthrough to the Nascent Soul realm.
It was crucial to understand that shattering the Core to form a Nascent Soul was an incredibly dangerous step with no turning back. If the breakthrough failed, his entire cultivation would be for naught, with basically no hope of a second attempt. The path of righteous cultivation valued 'purity' above all else. Without completely eradicating the maddening factor, his mind and body would be impure. Attempting the breakthrough to the Nascent Soul realm in that state would be suicide.
At his wit's end, Lin Tang activated a Communication Talisman. "Yuexi, how are things on your end? Has that old hag, Xuan Nv, revealed how to completely eliminate this maddening factor yet?"
A mont later, Ning Yuexi's whispered reply ca through, her tone helpless. "Ever since She found out we're still in contact, She's barely paid any attention to …"
In the past, whenever Xuan Nv was awake, she would answer any and all of Ning Yuexi's cultivation questions.
