Chapter 95 - Immortal Fate Of Longevity: Starting From Taking Care of Fellow Daoist Wife

Chapter 95: Second Disciple Advances to the Qi Refining Stage "Xuan'er, why are you wandering here with a worried expression?" Xia Changge was surprised to run into Xiao Xuan in the field. However, Xiao Xuan was still sitting on a cart. He wondered if she was accustomed to sitting on it or... He thought about how the Xiao family would take the only Foundation Building Pill if someone from the third generation was born first. Xia Changge seemed to understand. Xiao Xuan stared at him. "If I didn't come here, someone wouldn't want to see me for years." "I've been busy lately. I brought back four baby spirit beasts from the Azure Cloud Pavilion. Xuan'er, do you want one? I can have someone send it to you," Xia Changge explained. The best way to explain things was to put the other person in a special position. That way, any grudges they had would disappear instantly. "Sure, I've set my eyes on the one you... It's an eagle. Are you willing to give it to me to play with?" Xiao Xuan suddenly said, a strange smile on her face. For some reason, Xia Changge suddenly felt a tremor somewhere. "You... You must have seen it wrong. It's an eagle, not an eagle. They should be different, right?" Xia Changge didn't understand either, but he felt that the two were probably just distant relatives, right? If not, Xia Changge couldn't bear to give it up. "Oh? It seems like I saw it wrong. Then keep your eagle. Let me borrow it for a while," Xiao Xuan said with a peculiar smile on her face. Xia Changge naturally had no reason to refuse. Having his Wind-Flying Divine Eagle follow Xiao Xuan, a second-generation disciple, would probably mean better food for it than when it followed him! "Let's take a look at your spirit fields first. With you, the mistress here, I won't be afraid of any shoddy work from your servant," Xia Changge changed the subject and pushed Xiao Xuan to walk in the fields. Although Xia Changge was the one currently using these spirit fields, in essence, they still belonged to the Xiao family. Xiao Xuan being the mistress of the spirit fields was undisputable. "Do you sell your spirit rice yourself? If you do, it's best not to sell any to the Ren family," Xiao Xuan changed the topic as well, bringing the conversation back to serious matters. The Ren family was the one that bought the Qingluo fish for farming. They would have a high demand for spirit rice later. "I know, but I have a feeling that the Ren family is going to get swindled!" Even though it was normal for the Xiao family not to sell anything to the Ren family since they were rivals, Xia Changge felt that there was more to it than meets the eye. "Is that so? Then we should keep an eye on them," Xiao Xuan seemed slightly excited about the Ren family getting swindled, although she didn't understand the meaning behind Xia Changge's words. Most of the spirit rice would be kept by Xia Changge himself. With a production of about fifty mu, there were already close to three digits worth of children in Xia Changge's academy. Xia Changge made sure they ate the spirit rice for their daily meals. After strolling around for a while, Xia Changge sent Xiao Xuan back. Everything proceeded smoothly afterwards. The spirit rice cultivated by Xia Changge was all bought by the Yu family. The price they offered was higher than usual, by quite a bit. Although there were some oddities, one should take every opportunity to make money! This time, the Xiao family didn't participate in the division. All the income went into Xia Changge's storage pouch. A net profit of 4,200 spirit stones made Xia Changge somewhat embarrassed. A bountiful harvest was a good thing. Moreover, among the bountiful harvest, there was also another thing that made people happy! Xia Changge's second disciple, Li You, finally had Qi Refining success and became a Qi Refining Stage cultivator. And it seemed that Li Na would also follow soon, probably within the next month or two. This was naturally a good thing for Xia Changge. Xia Changge held a grand celebration, combining the joy of the abundant harvest with Li You's breakthrough. This inspired his disciples to look forward to a bright future. "You, pick one of these magical treasures. It's a gift from me as your entrance gift," Xia Changge took out the magical treasures he had accumulated for a long time. There were thirteen in total, all lower-grade magical treasures. There were knives, swords, sticks, and clubs. Li You made his choice after contemplating for a while, eventually choosing the flying sword. "During this time, share your experiences with your sister. Siblings should help and assist each other. Help your sister succeed in advancing to the Qi Refining Stage as soon as possible," Xia Changge instructed his disciple, treating him as if he were his own son. Li You humbly replied, "I understand, Master." Xia Changge nodded in satisfaction and continued, "I've put all the techniques in the house of the mansion. You should know where it is. Later, you can choose one or two of them to practice moderately. It's not that your Master is being stingy, but it's best for you to focus on cultivating in Qi Refining right now. Don't waste your talents. It won't have much impact even if you learn techniques after reaching the fifth or sixth level of Qi Refining. If you don't understand, you can come to me directly." Although Xia Changge claimed not to like killing, he had still killed many people over the years out of necessity. Among the spoils, he had collected more than twenty different types of techniques. Although Xia Changge claimed not to need them, his disciples would definitely need to cultivate them. For example, in Li You's case, he would definitely need to learn sword techniques as his combat style. "Disciple understands!" Li You was excited at this moment. He had longed for this moment for a long time. From now on, he was no longer just an ordinary person. Perhaps this was rebirth after the crisis. The Xia family had been blessed with joyous events in recent months. In the coming two months, Li Na would enter the Qi Refining Stage and become a Qi Refining cultivator. An Ruoshui, with the help of pills, had also reached the second level of Qi Refining. Cultivating the Five Elements Spiritual Roots still relied on the support of pills in the end. Not only An Ruoshui, but most of the students in Xia Changge's academy would be the same in the future. After her breakthrough, An Ruoshui sought out her teacher, Xia Changge, to continue her alchemy practice with the Qi Gathering Pills. When it came to making money, Xia Changge became particularly serious. This time, the chances of producing pills had indeed increased significantly. Xia Changge pondered that maybe, after An Ruoshui reached the fourth or fifth level of Qi Refining, there would be no need for Xu Bai Cha to help adjust the temperature anymore, and An Ruoshui could independently complete the initial steps. Xia Changge also hoped that An Ruoshui could start making Qi Gathering Pills on her own as soon as possible. Because after a long time of pill production, he felt a lack of motivation and interest. "Alright, the alchemy is done. Go and study something else on your own," Xia Changge decided to interrupt this routine after more than three months. An Ruoshui raised her ring finger to her Master as if teasing him for not lasting long. "You unfilial daughter, your mother can't take it anymore, and you still keep going. You've been urging her for these past few months, she might live a few years less. You should take some time to make her more Longevity Pills!" Xia Changge shook his head at this disobedient disciple. An Ruoshui finally woke up at this moment and noticed that her mother's complexion was no longer as vibrant as before. She felt a deep sense of self-blame in her heart. "It's not that serious. Take a rest," Xu Bai Cha comforted her daughter. "Shuishui, it's better for you to improve your cultivation soon. When you reach the fourth or fifth level of Qi Refining, maybe you can multitask and let your mother avoid working so hard and enjoy life," she reminded her daughter gently. After this reminder, Xia Changge finished organizing the Qi Gathering Pills, leaving ten of them for An Ruoshui, and walked out of the alchemy room. (This chapter is complete)
