Immortality Starts With Investment Chapter 473: You've Really Put Me Through a Lot!

"Holy Son, may I enter?" Lin Qingtan's voice prompted a smile from Ye Chen. Perfect timing. He opened the cabin door.

Lin Qingtan entered, wearing a form-fitting azure dress with a high slit, revealing long, dazzling legs with each step. No trace of demonic runes remained on her face, hands, or exposed skin—her complexion glowed. The chilling Yin Nether aura was gone, replaced by a warm, Unity presence. The Golden Crow Fire had transford her.

More strikingly, Ye Chen noticed she'd broken through to mid-Deity Transformation. Her system multiplier had also updated: 1,500 tis.

Sensing his gaze, Lin Qingtan smiled, gracefully closing the door before bowing. "I was stuck at Deity Transformation for decades, my Yin Nether Demon Body amassing pure yin energy. Now, with the Great Yang Immortal Scripture, Fusang root's Great Yang Holy Power, and Golden Crow Fire, I've achieved yin-yang balance. My constitution transford into sothing unique, naturally balanced, letting break through to mid-Deity Transformation. All thanks to you, Holy Son!"

Her eyes brimd with gratitude, her low neckline revealing sincerity as she bowed. Ye Chen nodded, pleased. "You've not only resolved your constitution's flaws but gained a stronger one. I'm relieved—great news."

Lin Qingtan ward at his genuine joy. Before she could speak, Ye Chen produced thirty gleaming Golden Crow tail feathers. "Your progress on the immortal path delights . As Holy Son, I should offer a gift. I lack suitable items now, but since you've refined Golden Crow Fire, take these. Craft them into your natal weapon for vast potential."

Lin Qingtan's words froze. Staring at the radiant feathers, she was speechless. She suddenly understood why Ye Chen risked offending the Golden Crows, humiliating them to gather these treasures—for her.

The fire accelerated her root's refinent, and the feathers, sharing its origin, would make a formidable natal weapon. The Golden Crow blood was likely for her too, held back to avoid overwhelming her. Next ti, he'd probably gift it.

Her eyes softened, nearly tearing up. Her husky voice trembled. "Holy Son, how am I worthy of such care?" Joining Ascension Peak, she'd only sought to borrow a prodigy's luck. But this? Holy Son was showering her with treasures. The unpredictability of fate overwheld her.

Ye Chen smiled gently. "You're worthy of all the world's beauty. Take it! Back at the Holy Land, think about crafting your natal weapon. Need help? Find ."

Lin Qingtan's heart skipped, hearing she deserved all things wonderful. Without hesitation, she joyfully accepted the thirty Golden Crow tail feathers arrayed before her.

Instantly, the system chid:

"Congratulations, Host, gift successfully given!"

"Gift: Thirty Golden Crow Tail Feathers! 1,500-fold feedback…"

"Detected significant emotional impact on recipient…"

"Critical reward triggered."

"Reward: One thousand Mahayana-stage True Phoenix Tail Feathers!"

Ye Chen's eyes sparkled. Mahayana True Phoenix feathers—priceless, with a thousand in hand? Endless possibilities, even for crafting Extre Dao Weapons. Lin Qingtan's feedback never disappointed, from the Battle Secret to now. A treasure worth nurturing on Ascension Peak for life.

Lin Qingtan, clutching the gift, gazed at him with watery eyes. "I can't refuse Holy Son's gifts. Please don't refuse my gratitude!" With resolve, her azure dress vanished—woven of Qi, leaving nothing. All the world's beauty seed bared before Ye Chen.

He glanced, then frowned, eting her eyes. "I said I'm not helping for this! No more of this nonsense."

A treasure like her, consistently triggering criticals, he couldn't bear to exploit.

Lin Qingtan, undeterred by his rejection, spoke with a wronged tone in her sultry voice. "But what if I want to?"

Ye Chen's eyes widened. That mature voice, laced with grievance—who could resist? Sighing helplessly, he said, "They all think I'm helping you for your body. If we do this, won't it confirm their rumors?"

Lin Qingtan shrugged, unconcerned. "So what? I know who you are. As long as our hearts are clear, that's enough!"

Ye Chen's mouth twitched. Clear conscience, huh? Facing her now rune-free, slightly less distinctive yet stunning form, and her pleading expression, he sighed, extending a hand. "You've really put through it…"

A critical-hit treasure, yet insisting on repaynt, trapping him in a dilemma. Still, he wouldn't let multipliers hurt those close to him. If she insisted, he'd indulge her.

Besides, the little demoness's hundredfold gift upgraded the system with a dual multiplier for partners. Lin Qingtan's 1,500-fold might trigger another upgrade, unlocking new features.
