Salute!

At Myriad Fragrance Garden on Fuxian Fu Xian Island, Fei Denan was suffering terribly these past few days! The father-daughter relationship he had painstakingly improved had plummeted back to its original state. Furong once again treated her father like a stranger, even avoiding him at every turn. The reason, naturally, was still Yue Qianchou, who had been expelled from Fu Xian Island. Fei Denan, being a shrewd old man, naturally realized that his daughter had already lost her virginity to that scoundrel, but his displeasure was useless; his daughter was in love. He could only wander around the sect every day, hoping to get more information about that boy.

Furong hadn't been able to focus on cultivation these past few days, spending all her time lying on her bed, staring blankly at a purple-gold necklace. Yue Qianchou had made it for her; the purple necklace had a small, transparent crystal ball hanging from it, the tiny ball containing a touch of crimson, quite beautiful. Yue Qianchou had once told her that the crimson inside was a drop of his blood. She didn't know how he had gotten it there.

"Don't you want me anymore? You've abandoned me?" Furong murmured to herself, staring at the necklace in her hand, tears soaking her pillow once more. She had repeated these words countless times over the past few days.

"Who said you don't want me anymore?" A familiar voice suddenly rang out in the room. Furong turned her head and saw Yue Qianchou, dressed in black and wearing a tilted hat, grinning at her. Furong sat up abruptly, rubbing her eyes, thinking she was seeing things. Yue Qianchou chuckled, "What? You don't even recognize your husband?"

"Yue Qianchou!" Furong's eyes lit up, and she immediately ran barefoot off the bed, jumping onto Yue Qianchou with her legs spread wide. She hugged him tightly and buried her head, sobbing uncontrollably. Yue Qianchou put his hands around her buttocks and touched them, clicking his tongue and saying, "Why are you all bones? Have you not eaten for a long time? It doesn't feel as good to touch as before."

Upon hearing this, Furong immediately stopped crying, jumped off him, touched herself with her hand, and frowned, saying, "You seem to have lost a little weight. Don't you like it?"

"Sigh!" Yue Qianchou sighed, lifted her up and carried her to the bed. He squatted down, took her dirty feet from the floor, and carefully patted them clean. He picked up her shoes from under the bed and helped her put them on, saying, "My Furong is pretty, but she's not pretty if she's as thin as a stick. Remember to eat more in the future. Don't think that you can stop eating just because you've reached the Core Formation stage. Have you seen those old guys on Fu Xian Island who never eat? They're old, dry, and skinny. Do you think you'd look good like that? I certainly don't."

Furong thought about what he said, and images of withered old faces flashed through her mind. If she were to become like that... Furong shuddered at the thought and quickly nodded, saying, "Then I'll eat more from now on. Take me with you!"

"Uh..." Yue Qianchou's face twitched slightly. Taking her away wasn't difficult, the key was that there was already Qu Ping'er in Utopia, and Bai Suzhen was no problem at all. He just didn't know how Qu Ping'er and Furong would react when they met. It was best to keep them apart for now. After thinking it through, his expression suddenly turned serious, and he sat down next to her, saying, "Furong, I need your help!"

Furong, who had been crying her eyes out just moments before, was now like a Yue Qianchou by her side. She nodded excitedly and said, "What can I do for you? Do you need spirit herb seeds? I'll ask my father for them, and if he won't give them to me, I'll steal them for you." In her memory, the only thing he ever asked her for help with was getting spirit herb seeds.

Yue Qianchou's face twitched again. With your skills, you actually managed to steal something from Myriad Fragrance Garden? It's only because that old guy Fei Denan turned a blind eye. He coughed and said solemnly, "I don't need you to do this favor. I need you to stay on Fu Xian Island and act as my undercover agent."

"What's an undercover agent?" Furong asked, her eyes wide with surprise. Yue Qianchou, looking quite serious, whispered in her ear. After listening, Furong's expression also turned serious, and she nodded, saying, "Don't worry! I'll remember everything that comes up on Fu Xian Island, and I'll tell you when you arrive."

"Okay! I'll leave things here to you. I'll be going now," Yue Qianchou said, standing up.

"Wait a minute!" Furong hugged him tightly, and said shyly in a soft voice, "Don't you miss me?" Yue Qianchou was taken aback, then realized what she meant. Oh dear! This girl used to be afraid, but now she's really into it. He glanced around and chuckled, "Right here? That's inconvenient! What if someone hears us?" Furong bit her lip, blushing, and said, "We'll just keep quiet."

"Is that so!" Yue Qianchou nodded, then whispered in her ear with a sly smile, "Shall we give it a try?" His words were polite, but his hands were already subtly helping Furong undress...

Yue Qianchou returned to Utopia, he went straight to Guan Yu's room in the military camp. He took the black outfit that Guan Yu handed him and asked while changing, "How are the drills for the newly formulated battle plan going?"

"No problem!" Guan Yu reported, "We are training to the highest standard of speed and efficiency, just as you requested. Chen Feng has also provided enough Qi Replenishing Pill as you requested, which have been distributed to every soldier. Each soldier also has two Storage Bag, enough for three rooms."

"Very good." Yue Qianchou nodded, then asked, "Have you made arrangements for the more than one hundred people I brought over last time?"

"They've already started cultivating, primarily using the Method Formula Cultivation Method Fu Xian Island. Chen Feng's newly refined 'Qi Gathering Pill' have been distributed, allowing them to quickly enter the Qi Refining stage. The women under Sister Bai are also cultivating a large number of spiritual herbs for refining Foundation Establishment Pill, and Chen Feng has also begun refining Foundation Establishment Pill. I believe that once they reach the Level Ten Qi Refining, they will all be able to break through to the Foundation Establishment Realm in one fell swoop," Guan Yu reported.

Yue Qianchou thought for a moment and said, "Those who are too old, after they break through to the Foundation Establishment Realm, let them go and cultivate the land! After all, they are too old, and it's already too late for them to start cultivating now. They won't make any significant breakthroughs if they continue cultivating. Let them live a few more years in peace and comfort. Fighting and killing are not suitable for them. This will also solve our increasingly tight food supply situation. We should try our best to be self-sufficient! This will save us from always having to buy food from outside. I'll bring more people when I have the chance."

"Understood," Guan Yu nodded.

Yue Qianchou paused in changing his clothes, and said in a deep voice, "You need to be mentally prepared for this battle. I'm afraid some casualties are unavoidable."

"I understand. People can't fight a war without dying." Guan Yu's tone was somewhat heavy.

After changing into a set of black, close-fitting clothes, the two walked together towards the operations room of the military camp. Inside, the company and Platoon Leader of each company had been waiting for a long time by a long table. As soon as they entered, someone shouted, "Stand up!" They all stood up with a "whoosh" and gave a standard military salute taught by Yue Qianchou, saying in unison, "Leader!"
