Chapter 22 How much trouble can your general get into?
Wu Yan was the General King of the Interstellar Empire, and now the Emperor's nephew.
What good things had he not seen?Especially after his Mental Energy collapsed, not only did the entire Interstellar Empire search for Medicinal Pills and items to treat his mental issues, but many people from other Interstellar Federations and Interstellar Sanctuaries also formed teams to search for them for high rewards.It was precisely because of his extensive knowledge that he understood the rarity of this bottle of qingyuan pill even more!
"Ling Ling, do you mean that this bottle of qingyuan pill was refined by you?
" He squeezed the jade bottle slightly, lowering his voice with a hint of urgency.Qiu Ling raised her chin slightly, her small face full of pride:"Yes, I already said it's my dowry, and I am a Pill Refining Contract Master.
Would it be appropriate to use Medicinal Pills refined by others?
From now on, I'll take care of all your Medicinal Pills!
"She patted her chest, displaying the heroic spirit she had as an Old Ancestor protecting all her Sect disciples and grandchildren.Wu Yan was amused and exasperated by her naive ignorance of the world's darkness.
He ruffled her messy hair, "My investigation shows that you are an ordinary Pill Refining Contract Master, and recently contracted Devilish Qi after going to the Magic Forest, causing your Mental Energy to drop to C-level?
"Qiu Ling earnestly reiterated how she had swallowed the Devilish Qi and turned misfortune into a blessing.
"So, what you know is old news. The current me is a Treasure Trove you can never exhaust.Of course, I'm quite easy to get along with, emphasizing treating people with sincerity.
If you treat me very well, I'll repay you a hundredfold.However, I'm only saying this once: I don't like being deceived or betrayed.We are husband and wife.
If you truly find someone you like, you can tell me in advance.
I'm not unreasonable..."Wu Yan tapped her forehead, "You seem like a clever girl, so why bring this up the first time you meet your man?
Are you questioning the loyalty of me, a soldier?
In my life, Wu Yan will only be widowed, never have an affair!
"Qiu Ling also slapped her forehead, "I forgot you were a soldier.
My mistake."After saying that, she chuckled, her forehead still red, "Hurry and take a marrow-washing and meridian-cleansing pill.Although medical technology is advanced now, and after your previous injuries, you could lie in a treatment pod and hardly see any scars, some injuries heal on the surface, but your body is still affected and can't recover to its Peak, right?
Moreover, the food we eat daily, the Medicinal Pills we take, and our own metabolism produce many toxins and impurities that are difficult for the body to expel on its own.The Medicinal Pills in this small bottle, take one every two days.
.. but it's best to take the Medicinal Pill naked, otherwise your clothes will smell.
.."She didn't forget to remind him.With the qingyuan pill preceding it, Wu Yan also developed an expectation for the marrow-washing and meridian-cleansing pill.
"Okay, I'll tell the cook to make you mushroom stewed bamboo rat.
You can go out to eat after you've washed up.After dinner, let my guard, Xing Gu, take you all to stroll around the market.
""Mhm, okay, okay, okay, I know," Qiu Ling was already eager to eat, her tone carrying the impatience of a child humoring a parent.Wu Yan chuckled, pinched her cheek, took his clothes, and went to the public restroom to take the Medicinal Pill.Qiu Ling had taken the marrow-washing and meridian-cleansing pill twice.
When she woke up, her Cultivation was already stable at the sixth layer of the Qi Refinement Stage, and her Spiritual Qi storage had increased.Even if the Fire Spirit energy she condensed wasn't enough for Alchemy or Artifact Refining, making a Qingchen Talisman was no problem at all.Other Cultivators' Qingchen Talismans merely removed surface dust from the body, but her Qingchen Talisman was self-created.
Water Spirit energy would circulate inside and outside the body, carrying a faint peach blossom scent, equivalent to brushing her teeth, taking a bath, and making her whole body fragrant!
It was done in half a minute, and even the clothes she changed out of were like they had been dry-cleaned, clean, fragrant, and brightly colored.She changed her clothes, casually tied up her hair, and ran out to find Yan Zhao.The Spiritual Qi on the Supply Star was rich.
Although it couldn't compare to her former Immortal Realm, or even the outer Sect, Qiu Ling, who came from the Spiritual Qi-depleted Ancient Blue Planet, was already very satisfied.With Spiritual Qi, anything was possible, enough for her to mess around with for the time being!
Taking a deep breath of fresh air, Qiu Ling rubbed her fists, a thought of leaving no stone unturned emerging.When she arrived at the dining room, dinner was already laid out on the table.
Besides the mushroom stewed bamboo rat that Wu Yan mentioned, there was also bamboo shoot braised pork and two plates of green vegetables, with rice as the staple.Yan Zhao poured soup into her bowl, "Darling, don't eat too much.
Save some room for snacks when we go shopping.
"Qiu Ling was already starving, but she was, after all, someone who had been an Old Ancestor.
She slowly ate her rice, asking curiously, "What kind of snacks are there?
"She was a Cultivator. Even if she had some cravings, for the sake of the Dao, she would only reward herself with a hearty meal whenever she made progress in her Cultivation.The food in the Cultivation world consisted of Spirit Beast meat and spirit vegetables.
She wondered what delicious food there was in the mortal world.Knowing that she had never left Gulan Star and was curious about everything, Yan Zhao smiled and educated her:"Many.
This is a numbered Supply Star. Since its official development, many merchants or military Family Members have gathered here, setting up stalls at the garrison.They cater to teams hunting and gathering on the Supply Star, and soldiers and their Family Members on missions.
Many are regulars, and with the developed network, without something attractive, a stall simply wouldn't last long.So these snacks are very authentic, like roasted skewers, candied hawthorns, sugar figurines, teppanyaki tofu, teppanyaki squid, hot and sour noodles, and chicken-stuffed rice, and so on.We'll be here for at least a month or so.
If we eat two different things every day, we'll definitely be able to try everything on these few streets!
"Qiu Ling hummed, still giving off an unhurried impression, yet her food was disappearing quickly.After finishing her meal and wiping her mouth, Qiu Ling looked at Yan Zhao, who was drinking tea.
Her well-behaved appearance reminded him of the little poodle he used to raise, waiting to go out.It was as if every extra sip of tea he took made him feel guilty.He chuckled softly, stood up, and took her hand as they walked out.
Seeing the guard Xing Gu about to follow, he waved his hand, "The market's Public Security is quite good, and the markets on each Supply Star are largely similar.
We'll just stroll around, you go about your business.
"Xing Gu hesitated, "Sister-in-law's photo has already spread throughout the military camp.
The General King asked me to follow because he's afraid she'll be bullied.
"What he didn't say was that Yan Zhao currently had no combat power, and if something really happened, he might not be able to fully protect Qiu Ling.Yan Zhao's expression was calm and cold, "This is bound to happen sooner or later.
" He turned his head to look at Qiu Ling, who was listening with perked ears, and sighed, "Your sister-in-law has strong psychological fortitude; she's not someone who gets taken advantage of, and she probably doesn't like being constantly protected from behind.
"Qiu Ling nodded, unable to resist clenching her fists, "When the system matchmaking results came out, I knew I would face cold treatment and disdain.I'll just ask you one thing: how much trouble can your General King handle? "
