The Daughter Of Destiny Broke Off The Engagement? I Married Her Sister Instead.

After Qinglian left, Chu Qianqiu officially entered his busy rhythm.

He needed to prepare for refining the Evil Expelling Pill as soon as possible, which was no small task for him.

First, he needed to cultivate the high-quality herbs he obtained from the White Jiao Cave Mansion in his own spiritual soil.

Since most of these herbs were from the depths of the Ten Thousand Beast Mountain Range, they were spiritual herbs and medicinal plants. Therefore, Chu Qianqiu didn't need to cultivate them for too long. He just needed to let these things absorb the spiritual energy of the spiritual soil for a few days and restore their vitality before he could pick them and refine the pills.

For this reason, he waited for a few days.

During these few days, he didn't idle around. Besides the necessary rest and recuperation, he also focused on cultivation.

It was during this cultivation gap that Chu Qianqiu discovered something incredible.

He suddenly realized that his strength and aptitude had become stronger unconsciously since he returned from the Ten Thousand Beast Mountain Range.

It seemed like this happened suddenly, but it definitely wasn't because of the enhancement from being intimate with Xue'er.

Xue'er's enhancement only took effect once every six months, so there was no benefit from their recent relationship.

Therefore, there was only one possibility left.

Chu Qianqiu remembered that when he was being relentlessly exploited by the White Jiao, she was always muttering something in her mouth, as if she had given him something good, like the essence of a demonic beast.

He was in so much... ahem, discomfort at that time, so he didn't hear it clearly.

Perhaps it was that, which made him feel something was off in his body until he fully realized it today.

Now, his strength had unconsciously reached the third level of the Foundation Building stage, and there was even a faint upward trend. In addition, he discovered that his spiritual roots had also changed and become stronger than before, indicating that they had evolved.

"My spiritual roots have surpassed the mortal level and entered the yellow level?!"

"This is the transformation into some kind of advanced fire attribute spiritual root, there's no mistake."

Continuously feeling the flames flowing in his meridians, Chu Qianqiu confirmed that this was definitely different from his previous ordinary spiritual roots.

This was indeed an evolution, without a doubt.

"It would have been great if I had asked White Jiao for a bit more of that essence!"

"I really didn't know how fortunate I was."

Sighing, Chu Qianqiu gladly accepted the news of his increased strength and spiritual roots, but he was still not satisfied.

After a few days passed, the herbs he had been waiting for had absorbed sufficient spiritual energy and recovered enough.

Seeing this, he directly pulled out the herbs needed to refine the Evil Expelling Pill, including their roots, and quickly took out his own alchemy furnace to start practicing.

At this moment, he encountered another problem.

Because the method of refining the Evil Expelling Pill and some truly significant pills were almost the same, it generally required an authentic alchemy furnace.

He only had an alchemy furnace for refining herbs in his hand, which might look similar to an alchemy furnace, but there were still differences.

The alchemy furnace was a very precious item that could only be bought in some large sects or in the hands of alchemists.

In this case, Chu Qianqiu was in a dilemma. If he forcefully used the alchemy furnace for refining herbs, the effect might be much worse, and the probability of failure would increase significantly.

He didn't know how to refine pills in the first place, so if the failure rate increased, wouldn't it be a complete failure?

"Right, the ring that Liu Ruoyan left me should have many treasures. I wonder if she has what I need."

Just remembered that he still had a "rich girl's" ring in his hand, Chu Qianqiu smiled and felt that there was still hope.

Sure enough, after a thorough search, he did find what he wanted in this guy's ring.

That is an extremely exquisite alchemy furnace, with some strange and rare beasts carved on it as decoration.

The alchemy furnace is overall a pale golden color, quite large, almost as tall as Chu Qianqiu's shoulders. Compared to his own medicine furnace, it's like a younger brother.

"Wow, she really lives up to being the daughter of the Lake Sword Sect's sect master. She's even wealthier than me, the head of a small family!"

"This woman still owes me a favor. When I see her again, I'll have to ask her for more things."

With a smirk, Chu Qianqiu began to gather the materials needed for the Evil-Dispelling Pill in the appropriate proportions and placed them into the furnace.

He found that the furnace was still brand new, without any traces of previous use.

This further proved just how wealthy Liu Ruoyan was. She would collect things that she didn't even need and store them in her ring.

...

Soon, the progress of the alchemy began in full swing.

Chu Qianqiu was also nervous because it was his first time attempting to refine a pill.

While he was refining the pill, he was also studying, preparing for the future when he would refine real pills.

Because refining pills is different from refining herbs, after the pill stabilizes in the furnace, it still requires at least a few days to form.

During this time, Chu Qianqiu started to get busy with other things.

The next day, he planned to focus on his Fiery Fist Technique.

In fact, he had great talent in martial arts. Not only did he quickly learn the Fiery Fist Technique, but he also effortlessly comprehended the moves in the formal martial arts techniques.

Previously, it only took him a few days to almost completely master the Fiery Fist Technique. And now, with more time, he practiced for a while and learned all the moves of the technique.

Chu Qianqiu, who had learned all the moves, didn't become conceited because of his achievements.

When he realized his talent in this aspect, he had already become indifferent. It was only because "that person" was no longer by his side that he felt a bit lost.

Little Yuehan still hadn't come out to see him these days, and as a father, he was very sad.

In the past, when he practiced his fist techniques, this little girl would always be by his side, watching him like she was supervising a rookie learning to walk.

When he made progress, his daughter would applaud and cheer for him, so obedient.

Now that his daughter wasn't by his side, no matter how hard he practiced, he felt like something was missing, and it became less and less interesting.

Therefore, on the second day after completing his fist practice, he wanted to go find his daughter and see what was going on with her. But as soon as he tried to enter, he was stopped by his parents.

Chu Cangxuan acted like he was hiding a treasure and absolutely wouldn't let his son in, saying that his granddaughter was sleeping and couldn't be disturbed.

This left Chu Qianqiu completely speechless. He wondered what kind of sleep it was that even as a father, he couldn't disturb it?

But according to his father, it was also at the command of Little Yuehan. He was just following his granddaughter's wishes, so he did it.

Helpless, Chu Qianqiu could only continue to endure and wait for his daughter to come out on her own.

...

Later, when Chu Qianqiu was preparing to leave.

Suddenly, his daughter in the room sensed her father's presence and gradually woke up from her "sleeping" state.

She had just woken up but couldn't speak or go find her father for the time being.

And Chu Qianqiu was just outside the door, attracted by a strange mental sensation. He turned around and glanced at the room behind him, but was immediately drawn away by something else.

"Wait, why did the system suddenly reward me with something?"
