Love Is a Beam of Light

The young man surnamed Wu said, "Junior Sister Su, what have you thought about what I told you last time?"

This man appeared to be an extremely proud and talented young man, but he was quite gentle and refined when facing Su Jie.

Su Jie shook her head. "I am grateful for Senior Brother Wu's kindness, but I have no intention of finding a Daoist partner."

The young man surnamed Wu said, "Is it because I was once going to become Daoist partners with a woman? I didn't know beforehand that this person already had a Daoist partner. I was just deceived by her sweet words. I hope you won't mind."

"..." Su Jie was taken aback and shook her head. "It's not because of that. I am devoted to the pursuit of the Dao and have no intention of finding a Daoist partner."

The young man surnamed Wu was usually very popular with some young women. He was exceptionally talented and came from a good family, so naturally he had no shortage of women.

He naively believed that Su Jie rejected him because he had female cultivators around him in the past.

He couldn't help but explain, "That woman has now disappeared without a trace. Maybe she ran away with her original Daoist partner. I was also deceived. Junior Sister Su, please don't take it to heart."

Su Jie frowned and said calmly, "Senior Brother Wu, I have other matters to attend to, so I'll take my leave now."

She was exceptionally talented and extremely beautiful.

It wasn't just some young disciples in the Red Cloud Sect who admired her.

Some young and strong cultivators from various sects also developed feelings for this beautiful female cultivator and wanted to become her Daoist partners, which annoyed Su Jie greatly.

After she left, the young man surnamed Wu's face immediately darkened. His previously gentle and refined demeanor vanished, and his expression became extremely unpleasant.

He took a deep look at Su Jie's departing figure, then turned and left.

"I came to deliver the news out of good intentions, yet you treated me with utter disdain!"

The young man surnamed Wu narrowed his eyes.

He had previously been entangled with a beautiful female cultivator. She had a slender figure, smooth skin, and was extremely charming, so he decided to become her Daoist partner.

Unexpectedly, the female cultivator disappeared without a trace.

Now he comes to see Su Jie with an air of elegance, but Su Jie remains indifferent.

"Snort!"

The young man surnamed Wu snorted coldly, his eyes revealing a hostile intent.

In the Slum Area of Market, Chen Wang sat cross-legged in his room, his palms facing upwards. Streams of Spiritual Qi circulated throughout his body and finally returned to his Qi Sea. He was now a cultivator at the Qi Refining Stage 5 of Qi Refining. After taking the Origin Returning Pill, his Law Power had grown stronger and flowed through his limbs and bones. The Law Power in his Qi Sea had also become thicker, which pleased him greatly.

What man doesn't like to be a bit muscular and strong?

After cultivating for a long time, Chen Wang emerged from his meditative state, opened his eyes, and was surrounded by a mysterious aura.

Her skin glowed with a divine light, Ru Yu.

Cultivating immortality does indeed greatly enhance one's temperament.

Chen Wang let out a soft breath, thinking to himself, "I should hurry up and break through to the Qi Refining stage, otherwise I'll have a powerful Law Artifact but no way to control it."

His aptitude for cultivation was not high to begin with. It was only after his spiritual power became strong that his cultivation speed increased significantly when he circulated his Cultivation Method. "I still need to buy more pills. If my aptitude is not enough, I can make up for it with pills."

Chen Wang's speed of absorbing Spiritual Qi solely through his cultivation Cultivation Method was far slower than that of absorbing it with the Origin Returning Pill.

With this thought in mind, Chen Wang got up and went to the Red Cloud Sect Market. As usual, he strolled around the stalls for a while. These days, he looked at the things on the stalls more than he bought. There were no pills to strengthen his Strengthening Foundation and Nurturing Origin here, so they couldn't meet his current cultivation needs. At this moment, Chen Wang noticed the female stall owner who had an ordinary appearance but a very hot figure. She was holding a book in her hands and reading it. It looked like an ordinary storybook.

The female stall owner was extremely indifferent in her business dealings, or rather, rather capricious. However, many stall owners in the Cultivation World have strange tempers, so she wasn't particularly special.

When Chen Wang arrived at her stall, he found that there were no Superior Grade Magic Tool, only three Mid-Grade Magic Tool, all of which were offensive.

Chen Wang glanced at it briefly before looking away, but his peripheral vision caught the sketchbook in the female stall owner's hand.

"Lamp, grass, monk?"

His lips twitched involuntarily. What kind of serious book was this? He then looked around. Just like that, openly watching lanterns in public, what kind of monk was this?

Chen Wang shook his head slightly and prepared to leave.

The female stall owner had a fiery temper, just like her figure; he didn't want to be called a lecher.

The female stall owner, engrossed in her purchase, noticed someone watching her. When she looked up and saw Chen Wang, she was taken aback for a moment, then couldn't help but smile. "What would you like to buy?"

Her tone was unusually gentle, quite different from her cold demeanor. I wondered if she was in a good mood or something else.

Chen Wang smiled and said, "It's nothing, just taking a stroll."

The female stall owner nodded, refrained from further pleasantries, and continued to focus her gaze on the storybook in her hands, giving off an inexplicable sense of freedom.

Chen Wang turned and left, entering the Hundred Treasures Pavilion.

Upon seeing him arrive, the refined and serene Jiang Ning immediately hurried forward to greet him, "Fellow Daoist Chen."

Chen Wang nodded.

Jiang Ning followed him gracefully, like a lotus flower, and said softly, "Fellow Daoist Chen, did you come here just to stroll around or is there anything you'd like to buy?"

Her voice was like a gentle breeze, as if she were from a respectable family.

Chen Wang cut to the chase. "Besides the Origin Returning Pill, are there any other Strengthening Foundation and Nurturing Origin that you would recommend?"

Jiang Ning, with his high level of professionalism and rich experience, thought for a moment and said, "If you want to accumulate Law Power to break through your realm, in addition to the Origin Returning Pill, there is also a Little Yellow Dragon Pill. It is more expensive, but the effect is better."

"A bottle of Yellow Dragon Pill normally costs sixty Low-Grade Spirit Stone."

Chen Wang frowned. "So expensive?"

Sixty Low-Grade Spirit Stone can buy a Mid-Grade Magic Tool.

Jiang Ning explained, "The Little Yellow Dragon Pill is somewhat complicated to refine, but it is extremely effective in increasing Law Power and also has a certain effect on improving physical constitution, hence the higher price."

"Taking too much Origin Returning Pill will reduce its efficiency, but Huanglong Pill will not be affected in its medicinal power until the ninth level of Late-Stage Qi Refining."

Chen Wang nodded.

A bottle of pills costs sixty Spirit Stone; indeed, taking pills requires a lot of money.

If you don't have enough money, sometimes you have to make a choice.

For example, if you want to take drugs, buy talismans or Law Artifact artifacts for self-defense, or purchase cultivation resources such as drawing talismans, setting up formations, refining pills, or crafting artifacts, you will need to spend Spirit Stone.

Of course, if you have plenty of money, you can do whatever you want.

In the Market where Chen Wang lived, an ordinary cultivator would be considered to have some savings if he had a dozen or twenty Spirit Stone.

Just like when Chen Wang lost his job as a horse farmer and made a living by drawing talismans, he didn't even have a single Spirit Stone in his hand and was so poor that he was urinating blood.

"Indeed, you need money in any world."

Chen Wang sighed.
