Mortal Alchemy

#285 - Chapter 285 Zhou Ying's hesitation, Chen Ping goes to Shattered Star for money

As she spoke, Bai Jianjia glanced at Chen Ping, a teasing smile on her face, "Junior Brother's fortune and luck are truly not shallow."

The only concubine he took in actually had such an opportunity, leaving one speechless.

Chen Ping was both surprised and delighted, but could only offer an awkward smile, "I didn't expect it either."

For Meng Huang'er to directly enter the Punishment Peak meant that she would receive the best inheritance and training from the Eastern Xuan Sect.

She wouldn't be treated like cannon fodder, doing all the menial labor like other Foundation Establishment cultivators.

Punishment Peak disciples only consider combat power.

As for where Meng Huang'er would be assigned in the future, Chen Ping would have to ask his master, Superior Gong Yue, to pull some strings.

He definitely wanted Meng Huang'er to stay by his side.

There was no need to worry about that.

Bai Jianjia looked at Meng Huang'er and softly asked, "Meng Shizhi, are you willing to join the Eastern Xuan Sect?"

Meng Huang'er's brain was blank with happiness, and she replied in a daze, "I am!"

In the past, Meng Huang'er was just a concubine plaything in Bai Jianjia's eyes.

But now, Meng Huang'er, with a bone age of twelve, early Foundation Establishment, and an awakened spiritual body, had directly become an extraordinary good seedling.

Special Dao spiritual roots were top-tier geniuses, spiritual bodies were still a level below.

But even so, she was a rare talent.

"Good." Bai Jianjia nodded slightly, "Meng Shizhi, you are already Junior Brother's concubine. After joining the Eastern Xuan Sect's Punishment Peak, you naturally won't be wronged, but you must understand that everything in the future depends on your own efforts, understand?"

Even though Chen Ping was a Nascent Soul direct disciple, he had still built himself up step by step.

"Thank you for your teachings, Real Person Jianjia, this concubine understands!" Meng Huang'er bowed gracefully.

"Not bad, quite knowledgeable and courteous." Bai Jianjia said, "I happen to have some time next, I'll take you back to the sect to formally become a disciple later."

Chen Ping hurriedly asked, "Senior Sister, Huang'er was born into the Mu family, a bondservant of the Mu family, will this have any impact?"

Bai Jianjia said, "It doesn't matter."

"Junior Brother's invitation to Daoist Changkong wasn't for nothing."

"Meng Shizhi doesn't have the surname Mu."

Chen Ping finally put down his worried heart.

The prestige of the Demon Subduing Sect was indeed useful!

With the endorsement of the four sects, the demonic cultivator turmoil wouldn't affect them, eliminating future troubles, and she could also join the Eastern Xuan Sect.

Mu Luofei was expelled from the sect because she had the surname Mu, and was a daughter of a collateral line.

After giving some instructions, Bai Jianjia said, "I don't have much free time, Junior Brother, I won't stay long this time, I'll take Meng Shizhi back to the sect."

Chen Ping immediately cupped his fists and bowed, "Respectfully see off Senior Sister!"

"Mm~" Bai Jianjia responded softly, and then soared into the sky with Meng Huang'er.

Chen Ping and Meng Huang'er didn't feel reluctant, this departure was for a better reunion in the future.

This could also be considered completely escaping the shadow of the Mu family!

Solving Meng Huang'er's matter could be considered a major concern off Chen Ping's mind.

In a very good mood, he found Mu Luofei, "Senior Sister, Huang'er was taken away by Senior Sister Bai to the sect, to join the Punishment Peak."

Mu Luofei's delicate body trembled slightly uncontrollably, and a captivating light of excitement and restraint surged in her beautiful eyes:

"It really can be…"

"The effect of this Yandao Pill is far beyond my imagination." Chen Ping smiled and held Mu Luofei's fair, tender hand, "In this way, Senior Sister can also join the Demon Subduing Sect…"

The Golden Spirit Guiding Divine Pill provided by Chen Ping had 30% efficacy, the Demon Subduing Sect's secret medicine also had 30%, even if Mu Luofei's cultivation method was the worst, it would still have at least 10%, which was a full 70% probability of advancing to the Golden Core stage.

If there were enough resources, and Mu Luofei supplemented her cultivation with body refinement, she could add another 10%!

But if she became a rogue cultivator, there would only be 30-40%, and even Chen Ping couldn't change that.

Mu Luofei's youthful and beautiful face couldn't help but flush with excitement, "Junior Brother, you'll have to work hard!"

Only Chen Ping could refine such heaven-defying pills.

Hearing this, Chen Ping's face didn't show any reluctance, "Senior Sister, how many spirit stones can you take out?"

"Only sixty thousand spirit stones…" Mu Luofei was also telling Chen Ping her financial situation for the first time.

Chen Ping pondered, "For safety's sake, it's still necessary to gather materials worth two hundred thousand spirit stones."

Two hundred thousand spirit stones could restore youth and re-enter the sect from being a rogue cultivator, which was a very worthwhile thing.

Chen Ping couldn't take out the money, so he could only find a way to get the idea to Zhou Ying and Nan Yun.

Chen Ping found Zhou Ying, this woman's family fortune was not small, Chen Ping asked for a sky-high price, "Junior Sister Zhou, can you lend me sixty thousand spirit stones?"

Sixty thousand spirit stones was not a small amount for any Foundation Establishment cultivator.

But Zhou Ying could take it out.

Zhou Ying only hesitated slightly, then covered her mouth and smiled, "Senior Brother Chen, I have no problem."

A second-order alchemist was a chicken that continuously laid golden eggs, and would never lack spirit stones.

Unless Chen Ping was planning something big.

She took out a spatial ring, "There are sixty thousand spirit stones inside, Senior Brother can count them."

"Good." Chen Ping showed sincerity:

"I heard that Madam Guo is having a hard time re-establishing herself in the Eastern Wasteland Immortal City, these are a few bottles of first-order longevity pills I refined earlier. Taking one pill can extend lifespan by two months, and only one pill can be taken within a year."

"I'll sell it to Junior Sister Zhou at cost price, fifteen hundred spirit stones a bottle."

Zhou Ying's expression shook, "First-order longevity pills… Senior Brother Chen, you've really given me a big surprise…"

"In this Eastern Domain cultivation world, I've only seen them at black market auctions."

If you want to gather a family's popularity and expand channels, nothing is more useful than longevity pills, not even beauty-preserving pills can compare.

Chen Ping smiled, "The materials for these longevity pills are too difficult to collect, I've only refined this little bit over the years."

Longevity pills should be the most profitable, but the materials are too difficult to collect completely.

Zhou Ying hurriedly got up and gave Chen Ping a graceful bow, "Thank you, Senior Brother Chen."

"You're welcome." Chen Ping said, "I will return the remaining money to Junior Sister Zhou as soon as possible."

Zhou Ying just covered her mouth and smiled lightly, then watched Chen Ping leave.

"Senior Brother Chen's alchemist inheritance is too mysterious… Mother has ambitions now, if she wants to go further… she can only rely on Senior Brother Chen…"

Madam Guo asked her to be Chen Ping's concubine. Although Zhou Ying had a good impression of Chen Ping, she was still unwilling to demean herself to take the initiative to be a concubine.

But she also knew that she couldn't compete with Mu Luofei for the position of an equal wife and dao partner.

Therefore, in recent years, her relationship with Chen Ping and the other women of Mu Luofei has been relatively subtle.

They have known each other for many years, and she has been wandering outside the core circle.

She can't make up her mind, but she feels that if she drags it on like this, it won't last long, and she will eventually have to make a decision.

Zhou Ying looked at the longevity pills on the table, her heart stirred, and she found it difficult to calm down.

After Chen Ping obtained one hundred and twenty thousand spirit stones, he personally took Luo Chongzhi and others out to sea.

For Mu Luofei, he, the Rogue Cultivator Ronghai, the second-order alchemist of the Rogue Cultivator Alliance, was going to set out again!
