This is like a lamb entering a wolf’s mouth. Be careful not to be eaten down to the bones.
If your master becomes merciless, I’m no better than your ruthless teacher."
"This servant is willing, my lord."
Wenn Qing’s delicate, boneless hand gently reached into Zheng Yi’s collar, her fingers seemed to carry magic, every inch of skin they touched sent waves through his heart.
At some indeterminate time.
Wenn Qing circled to Zheng Yi’s front, slowly undressing Zheng Yi layer by layer.
"Not regretting?"
Zheng Yi asked.
Wenn Qing didn’t speak, only slowly leaned forward, untying the final red bellyband on her chest.
In an instant, the spring scenery was fully displayed.
"Then I won’t hold back."
Zheng Yi chuckled softly, then began to be intimate with Wenn Qing.
After a round of tenderness, Zheng Yi, by absorbing the Pure Yin Qi, increased his lifespan, and his Blood Spirit Root also improved somewhat.
...
The movements in the study were quite significant, yet those outside didn’t dare come even a step closer.
Until everything calmed down, Wenn Qing tidied her clothes, cheeks flushed, carefully cleaning up the mess around, obediently sitting on the soft couch beside the study.
At this moment, she was like a lamb stripped bare, had given everything to Zheng Yi, and could only let him deal with her as he pleased.
If Zheng Yi could give her a status, then her wish would be fulfilled; but if Zheng Yi dressed and refused to acknowledge it.
She, as a servant, would have no choice.
"My lord..."
Wenn Qing called softly, seeing Zheng Yi silent, couldn’t help feeling a bit flustered in her heart.
"Afraid now?
Weren’t you quite brave just now."
Zheng Yi chuckled lightly.
"My lord..."
Wenn Qing pouted, stamped her foot, the young girl’s shyness was fully displayed at the moment.
She ran to Zheng Yi, sat in his lap, happened to sit in the very middle, "My lord wouldn’t abandon Qing’er, would he?"
"Alright."
Zheng Yi fondly raised her gently, patting her little backside, "After tomorrow, you’ll manage this shop.
If you don’t want to be in charge, you’ll still get the status.
Do you think your master would really be that kind of person?
Also,
Isn’t it time to change the way you address me?"
Saying this, Zheng Yi’s index finger gently scraped Wenn Qing’s tender cheek.
Wenn Qing suddenly straightened her long legs with joy, shyly calling out in a soft voice: "Husband."
Zheng Yi suddenly leaned forward, pulling Wenn Qing into his embrace.
A hint of fear flashed in Wenn Qing’s eyes, thinking they had just been intimate, and now again.
Her little body truly couldn’t hold up.
"Are all those in the Foundation Establishment Realm this vigorous?"
This thought suddenly flashed through Wenn Qing’s little head.
"What nonsense are you thinking?
It’s time to sleep at night, your master isn’t that ignorant of the tender and beautiful."
Zheng Yi said.
Wenn Qing was relieved, resting her small head on Zheng Yi’s shoulder.
The two of them closely relied on each other, then returned to another room to sleep in each other’s arms.
The next day, in the alchemy shop, apprentices, accountants, stewards, and businesses from various channels, on seeing Wenn Qing, all exclaimed: "Greetings, Madam."
They were well-informed, within this alchemy shop.
Zheng Yi didn’t deliberately keep it a secret, sooner or later this would spread.
After all, in this Cultivation Realm, especially in Celestial South Market, it’s common for a Foundation Establishment Cultivator like Zheng Yi to have many women around him.
At this vigorous age for men, having three wives and four concubines is not strange, let alone many of the women around Zheng Yi have no spirit roots, only being mortals.
Foundation Establishment Realm lifespan is nearly over two hundred years, compared to mortals, taking several wives and concubines is reasonable.
The alchemy apprentices paid their respects one after another.
"Congratulations, Sister Wenn Qing."
"Sister Wenn Qing, in the future, you must take good care of us apprentices."
"That requires your hard work, the husband master is never stingy with your teaching, also guiding you plenty in ordinary days."
Wenn Qing, like a charming little snake before Zheng Yi, regained her usual dignity before these outsiders, only revealing some intimacy in front of people she was on good terms with.
"Sister Wenn Qing is right in her teaching."
The alchemy apprentices responded one after another.
Soon after.
Wuu Mei came, respectfully bowing her head, "Greetings, Madam."
Wenn Qing casually glanced at Wuu Mei, initially wanting to make things difficult, but thinking of the identity difference now between them, found it uninteresting.
She is now one of the shop’s mistresses, and in the Wang Family is considered part of the upper echelon, plus her Blood Spirit Root is top-grade, and her husband has great abilities.
She will inevitably break through to the Foundation Establishment Realm in the future.
And in front of her Wuu Mei possesses a Spirit Body, if she offends now, in the future they’ll meet often, awkwardness is inevitable.
Wenn Qing is a smart girl.
In an instant, a sweet smile appeared on her face, she grabbed Wuu Mei’s hand, speaking as the latter was surprised: "Sister Wuu Mei, don’t be a stranger.
The Fifth Madam brought you into the shop, and even specifically asked you to manage the shop’s matters before leaving.
Your Spirit Body is helpful to the lord, in the future, we are family, no need to address as Madam, just call me sister, after all, I came into the household first."
Wenn Qing spoke without avoiding.
She knew Zheng Yi’s temperament well, even her Blood Spirit Root didn’t escape Zheng Yi, there’s no way Wuu Mei’s Charm Spirit Body in front of her would be spared by Zheng Yi.
"Madam, this doesn’t seem right."
Wuu Mei’s ears turned red, she was flustered.
Seemed a bit nervous, hurriedly explained, "How could this servant compare to Madam, Madam’s Blood Spirit Root is top-grade, and you are certainly hopeful for Foundation Establishment in the future.
Whereas the servant has already been through a Daoist Companion."
"So what?"
Wenn Qing said indifferently, "Eventually, we’ll all be family."
Her considerate words maintained a good sisterly relationship between the two.
At this moment,
A set of footsteps came from the shop’s backyard.
Zheng Yi saw Wenn Qing and Wuu Mei getting along well, nodded and showed a hint of a smile.
Seeing this scene, Wenn Qing became more convinced that what she did was correct.
After this, Zheng Yi went to the Wang Family residence in Celestial South Market, preparing to continue refining the Spirit Pill for the complete Foundation Establishment Realm, which would also help a bit with crystallization.
Recently, the Wang Family had just gathered all the required Spiritual Materials, allowing Zheng Yi to begin refining.
The Earth Fire upgraded.
The Separation Fire Furnace in front of him had already been moved over, Zheng Yi cast one spell after another, and the flame temperature rose again.
This time, the elixir Zheng Yi was refining was called the Seven Illusions Cyan Spirit Pill, one of the best in Foundation Establishment Pills.
When breaking through to the Crystal Realm, this pill could eliminate heart demons, assisting cultivators in maintaining their true selves.
From Qi Refining to Foundation Establishment, one had to pass three gates: first Spirit Root, second Spiritual Power, third the internal Celestial Gate. Only by passing these three gates could one achieve Foundation Establishment.
The Celestial Gate also has another name, called Divine Sense.
Only by being born with Divine Sense, can one achieve Foundation Establishment Realm.
If one wants to break through from Foundation Establishment Realm to Crystal, it is necessary to condense Divine Sense at the Divine Soul with Divine Sense to pressure the Divine Soul, ultimately forming a Crystal Core.
This is the origin of the Crystal Realm.
The most critical gate here is the occurrence of Illusions in the mind. If they cannot be broken, one will enter Fire and Demonic.
Upon a breakthrough failure, those lucky might save their lives, but their strength would be greatly diminished, and unlike Foundation Establishment Pill, there’s no second chance.
Unless one has heaven-defying opportunities.
Otherwise, this is an iron rule in the Cultivation Realm—the higher the realm, the fewer opportunities for breakthrough, and the greater the difficulty.
Zheng Yi placed each Spiritual Material into the Pill Furnace, Spiritual Power rolling over him.
After breaking through to the Foundation Establishment Realm.
His Spiritual Power was already sufficient.
With the powerful Divine Sense of the Golden Core Stage.
He continued to control everything within the Alchemy Pavilion.
At this time, only he was in the Alchemy Pavilion, currently, in the Wang Family, only Zheng Yi could refine this Foundation Establishment Realm Spirit Pill.
Outside the booth.
The Great Elder looked complexly at the Alchemy Pavilion, increasingly understanding the decisions made by the ancestors before.
A second-grade Alchemist’s help to the Wang Family is really too great, especially at the Wang Family’s current flourishing stage, the growth momentum must not be cut off.
Once the momentum begins, it cannot weaken, nor be exhausted, the Wang Family must not have any problems at this time.
The Great Elder held his breath and continued to act as the Protector outside the Alchemy Pavilion for Zheng Yi.
The sun rises and sets.
This time, the alchemy process lasted nearly two days.
Zheng Yi emerged from the Alchemy Pavilion with a smile on his face, handing a storage bag to the Great Elder.
