"Lin Chen, you're amazing!"
Zhao Lingxi exclaimed happily after planting a red mark on Lin Chen's face.
Lin Chen was already accustomed to Zhao Lingxi's bold actions. When he first entered, Zhao Lingxi had looked like a wronged woman, and without those one million low-grade spirit crystals, who knows how tragic the oute would have been.
After getting the spirit stones, aside from that kiss, Zhao Lingxi quickly left Lin Chen aside and called a meeting in the Lingxi Pavilion's main hall, gathering her subordinates.
"Ladies, e here for a moment."
Zhao Lingxi shouted in the main hall.
"President, what are your orders?"
A beautiful woman inquired of Zhao Lingxi.
"The martial cultivation of the major departments has advanced rapidly. The Alchemy Pavilion, Artifact Refining Pavilion, and Spiritual Talisman Pavilion all need to increase resource production. Bring back the materials on this list and increase refining in each pavilion."
Zhao Lingxi handed out a few lists to the women.
Although the Jade Cauldron Sect had its own herb fields, they were far from sufficient, still needing to purchase from other businesses.
"President, so many materials will require quite a lot of spirit stones. We can't possibly gather that much money in a short time, and the material prices with the Bright Moon merce Guild haven't been determined yet."
A beautiful woman looked at Zhao Lingxi, speaking with a troubled expression.
"Don't worry about that, just go ahead with the procurement. We have plenty of money now."
Zhao Lingxi confidently addressed the group in front of her.
With Zhao Lingxi's arrangement, several managers from the Lingxi Pavilion were assigned their tasks. The current Jade Cauldron Sect had the Alchemy Pavilion, Artifact Refining Pavilion, Spiritual Talisman Pavilion, Spirit Martial Pavilion, and Spiritual Treasure Pavilion each managed by a designated head appointed by Zhao Lingxi.
Presently, the affairs of the Alchemy Pavilion were the most urgent, so Zhao Lingxi prioritized solving issues there first.
After all, each department was facing a shortage of resources, and handling the Alchemy Pavilion first would prevent delays in the Jade Cauldron Sect's cultivation matters.
Lin Chen stood in the Council Hall. Though Zhao Lingxi was the president of the Lingxi merce Guild, the entire Jade Cauldron Sect belonged to Lin Chen, not to mention the Lingxi merce Guild.
"By the way, the expansion of the Lingxi merce Guild into Central State will need to be postponed."
Lin Chen stood up after Zhao Lingxi had given her instructions and addressed her.
Hearing this, Zhao Lingxi was puzzled. After all, Central State was affluent and more expansive than the Eastern Domain; establishing the Lingxi merce Guild there would bring infinite benefits.
But she didn't understand why Lin Chen wanted to stop it.
However, while curious, she was confident that Lin Chen had his reasons for this decision.
"Something has e up in Central State. Once I've dealt with it, the Lingxi merce Guild can appear directly in the core area of Central State. But now is not the time—it would bring trouble."
Seeing Zhao Lingxi's puzzled expression, Lin Chen said calmly.
"You won't run into any trouble over there, will you?"
Zhao Lingxi asked worriedly upon hearing the word 'trouble.'
"Don't worry."
Lin Chen gave Zhao Lingxi a light smile.
If the Lingxi merce Guild expanded into Central State now, it would inevitably e under the scrutiny of the Flying Crane Sect, causing trouble. The current Jade Cauldron Sect was not yet in a position to contend with the Flying Crane Sect.
"Have you finished explaining everything?"
Lin Chen looked Zhao Lingxi up and down and asked calmly.
One had to admit, Zhao Lingxi had a real talent for business; she had handled tasks efficiently with just a few words. If it were up to Lin Chen, who knows how much headache it would have caused.
"Yes, I've handled it."
Zhao Lingxi responded with a slight nod, unaware of why Lin Chen asked.
"Then e with me for a moment."
As Lin Chen spoke, he grabbed Zhao Lingxi's jade hand in front of everyone at the Lingxi Pavilion and started walking out.
Zhao Lingxi wasn't embarrassed; instead, she felt a tiny bit of happiness inside, allowing Lin Chen to lead her.
Soon, Lin Chen brought Zhao Lingxi to his residence, making her heart race as she secretly anticipated Lin Chen's next move.
Soon, they arrived in a room.
"Are you okay? Why is your face so red?"
Lin Chen looked at Zhao Lingxi's flushed face and asked, bewildered.
"You...you scoundrel!"
Blushing, Zhao Lingxi lightly tapped Lin Chen on the body. This guy brought her to this place, knowing full well she's an innocent girl, yet he asked such a question. That was not how you flirt!
"Alright, calm yourself down, sit cross-legged, and I'll help you enhance your cultivation."
Lin Chen said to Zhao Lingxi.
All these years, Zhao Lingxi had devoted herself to managing the Lingxi merce Guild for Lin Chen, leaving little progress in her cultivation. It wasn't that Zhao Lingxi lacked talent; she had just spent all her time on merce management, leaving almost no time for practice.
Bear in mind, Zhao Lingxi had considerable talent. If she hadn't neglected her cultivation over the years, her level wouldn't merely be at the seventh level of the Reverting Void realm.
It's worth noting that people like Xu Lianyu and Wang Yilin, once inferior to Zhao Lingxi in cultivation, had already broken through to the peak of the Nirvana Realm.
"You...you brought me here just to help me increase my cultivation?"
Zhao Lingxi looked at Lin Chen, feeling a wave of anger.
She had thought Lin Chen had other intentions when he called her over, but it turned out to be about improving her cultivation.
"Yes, your cultivation is too low. I'm here to help you enhance it."
"What did you think I called you here for?"
Lin Chen looked at Zhao Lingxi with some confusion.
Among Lin Chen's many women, Zhao Lingxi had the lowest cultivation. Xu Lianyu, Zhao Rushi, and others had long since transcended to the Nirvana Realm; only Zhao Lingxi remained in the Reverting Void Realm, not even reaching the Heavenly Human Realm.
Upon hearing Lin Chen's words, Zhao Lingxi's cheeks turned incredibly red.
"You...you aren't seriously thinking I brought you here to do that sort of thing, are you?"
"Zhao Lingxi, you're really underestimating me, Lin Chen. How could I be that kind of person?"
Lin Chen looked at Zhao Lingxi, somewhat speechless. Was he just a lecher in her eyes?
"You're still saying that, you scoundrel!"
Zhao Lingxi's cheeks burned fiercely at this moment, wishing she could find a hole and hide.
As she spoke, she playfully punched Lin Chen once more.
