Chapter 37 Cant lie down in peace
Wu Yan handed her a storage ring.Qiu Ling took it, and after probing with her Divine Sense, saw that it was a storage ring of two hundred square meters with a Time Formation Array inscribed, and the Materials inside were neatly stacked.On the market, six-level Vicious Beasts are not easy to come by; basically, as soon as they are displayed, the stall owner doesn't even need to hawk, and people immediately pay a high price in crystal stones to buy them.It was only because her family had the advantage of being close that she smiled and nodded, her mind already starting to ponder what to do with these Materials.Lunch was ordered by Wu Yan, and it included sweet and sour pork ribs, spicy three-tailed chicken, stir-fried seasonal vegetables, and a large platter of cold dishes, and for the main course, it was scallion oil egg pancakes!
The scallion pancakes, wrapped in egg wash, were fragrant and crispy; Qiu Ling could eat a whole basket even without side dishes.The four dishes were all delicious in their own way, and Qiu Ling's chopsticks couldn't pick them all up fast enough.Wu Yan and Yan Zhao were also ravenous; the family of three buried their heads in their food, and the table full of dishes was quickly emptied.Qiu Ling slowly sipped her juice, looking at the handsome one and then the elegant one, her eyes curving into a smile, feeling that her Rebirth in this foreign world was much more flavorful than her previous life!
She suddenly remembered her other husband.Qiu Ling looked at Yan Zhao, who seemed to know all the gossip, and asked, "Yan Zhao, do you know about Shang Qi's situation?
"Yan Zhao raised an eyebrow. "I've heard a bit.
He's the direct grandson of the Shang Family, the first of the Great Families/Aristocratic Houses in your Interstellar Federation, and also a relatively well-known young man with outstanding Aptitude.Five years ago, he was still an SS-level warrior.
There was an instance where several Celestial Bodies on the Federation's border simultaneously experienced a Demonic Beast tide.
He led an advance team to investigate the situation, but unfortunately, the main force was delayed, and their flying shuttle malfunctioned, preventing them from retreating in time.Demonic Beast tides are much more formidable than Vicious Beast tides.
If one is contaminated with Devilish Qi, it will spread rapidly if not treated promptly.They held out for a very long time.
By the time the rescue team arrived, everyone else had perished, and only he was unconscious, having been in a coma until now!
"Wu Yan also frowned and added, "To my knowledge, Shang Qi's parents died when their flying shuttle encountered an Interstellar storm, and he was raised by his grandfather.As the Federation's first of the Great Families/Aristocratic Houses, the Shang Family has many industries.
They not only own more than a dozen Celestial Bodies/Planets, including the Mingyuan Star System, the Federation's second-largest Celestial Body, but also have Shang Family-owned shops on other human-inhabited Celestial Bodies/Planets, in the Interstellar Sanctuary, and on the first, second, and third-tier Celestial Bodies/Planets of the Interstellar Empire.Their shops offer a wide variety of goods, covering aspects of people's clothing, food, housing, transportation, medical care, Cultivation, and so on.
In particular, the most influential auction house in the entire Interstellar space is run by Treasure Artifact Pavilion!
Shang Qi has two illegitimate uncles, and these industries are managed by them.
Especially after he fell into a coma, the two families frequently appeared at various banquets, subtly presenting themselves as future family heads.
"Qiu Ling pursed her lips and continued to ask, "Will his family know about my marriage to him?
How is Shang Qi now?""Marriage is a personal privacy; the System will send the notification to Shang Qi's light brain.A light brain cannot be opened without personal authorization from the individual.
Since Shang Qi was already in a coma before the rescue, it's likely no one could open his light brain.Even if someone inadvertently discovered that Shang Qi is currently married, if Shang Qi himself doesn't perform an operation, others won't be able to see your information.Therefore, the Shang Family Members probably don't know about your existence, Darling.
"Wu Yan slightly lowered his eyelids, thought for a moment, and said, "Ling Ling, the Shang Family's situation is very complex.
Many rumors say that the deaths of Shang Family's parents and Shang Qi's coma are all results of internal struggles within the Shang Family.I'll first send people to investigate the Shang Family's news and Shang Qi's current condition.
After we've discussed a strategy, then I'll have Yan Zhao take people to accompany you.
How does that sound?"Qiu Ling nodded: "They say that a prolonged illness wears out even the most filial child.
Even if Shang Qi is the direct grandson of the Shang Family, he's been in a coma for five years, and whether he can wake up is a question.
I estimate that the people taking care of him won't be too diligent.Once your people have gathered clear information, and I'm done with this busy period, I'll go with Yan Zhao.His mental damage is definitely more severe than yours.
We'll bring him over first, and once he's fully recovered, he can handle the Shang Family's affairs himself.
"Wu Yan hummed, "Alright, no matter how long the Shang Family's reach is, they wouldn't dare extend it into our Empire's military!
"Yan Zhao scoffed: "Our Interstellar Sanctuary is the most peaceful, and there's no need to travel around, it's perfect for Shang Qi to recover.
"These two started arguing again, and Qiu Ling raised her hand, saying, "I'll take Shang Qi back and forth, without favoring either side.
"All three poor darlings needed her support, so she had to work a little harder and couldn't just lie around idly.Wu Yan and Yan Zhao exchanged glances, then both snorted and turned their faces away.Wu Yan rushed over, delivered the ring, had a meal, and then left.
Yan Zhao pulled Qiu Ling to take a nap. It was truly satisfying to hold the soft Little Girl while sleeping.In the afternoon, in the workshop, Qiu Ling first emptied the two-hundred-square-meter storage ring Wu Yan had given her.
She then put it, along with some more valuable Artifact Refining Materials, into the Earth Fire to re-forge and temper, occasionally striking it with spell incantations.About an hour later, she finished the last spell incantation, and the storage ring glowed brightly before returning to its dull gray appearance.Even after further baking by the Earth Fire, the storage ring showed no reaction.As if sensing this, the Earth Fire Spirit, not believing it, moved closer and personally baked it for a long time, its flames trembling with anger, but it still couldn't make the storage ring turn red again.A faint smile graced Qiu Ling's lips.
After turning off the Earth Fire, she operated the machinery to retrieve the storage ring.The ring was ancient and unadorned, yet it carried an indescribable Dao rhyme, filling one with joy and reverence!
Qiu Ling used her Divine Sense to examine it.
The storage ring, according to her preferences, could be refined, acknowledged as its master, and made invisible.
Its internal space had expanded to one thousand square meters, its height increased from five to ten meters, and it also had an automatic sorting and categorization function.
The flow of Time Formation Array had also been superimposed by one hundred times on the original twenty times.This meant that food that would originally stay warm for ten days to half a month would now remain hot for two or three years.Satisfied, she popped a qingyuan pill and a qi gathering pill into her mouth, meditated for a while to adjust her breath, then transferred the items from Yan Zhao's storage ring into the new ring, continuing with the corresponding forging and tempering.The one-thousand-square-meter space also expanded fivefold, its height increased from ten to twenty meters, and the Time Formation Array flow increased a hundredfold.
Categorization, refining, and invisibility were naturally also included.Qiu Ling adjusted her breath again for a moment, then in one go, she upgraded the five-hundred-square-meter storage ring Yan Zhao had given her to two thousand five hundred square meters and ten meters high!
When she turned off the Earth Fire, the Earth Fire Spirit still nudged the ground.
During the modification of the storage ring just now, with its help, the quality of the storage ring had improved by one rank.The little fellow hadn't played enough and was somewhat displeased with her 'crossing the river and demolishing the bridge' behavior, yet it didn't dare show itself, only offering a small protest.Qiu Ling's eyes held a smile.
She opened the Earth Fire again and sent a wood element crystals into it.
Sure enough, the little fellow excitedly sprang up, snatched the crystal, and hurriedly burrowed back in with a whoosh.
