The Art of Commanding Subordinates

Feng Lin bit her lip lightly.

She nestled in Chen Wang's arms, her hand naturally moving downwards, giving it a gentle twist.

This action was rather bold. Her face flushed, and she said with a smile, "I met you when I was still a True Person, and now I entrust you with my whole heart."

Chen Wang gasped as she gently pinched him, his hand sliding inside her collar.

"You really don't look like a respectable person."

Soon, rustling sounds came from the courtyard, followed by heavy breathing...

After the rain stopped and the clouds cleared, Feng Lin couldn't even lift her arms.

This woman had clear eyes, yet she also knew some of the Bewitching Arts of the Joyful Union Sect, giving her the air of a virtuous woman who had just entered the world of prostitution, which was quite intriguing.

Chen Wang dressed himself, poured himself a cup of tea, and moistened his throat.

Feng Lin was slumped over the table, her face flushed and she looked weak and listless.

Chen Wang patted her pert buttocks, which immediately caused waves to ripple.

Feng Lin couldn't even groan; her body trembled slightly.

After drinking a cup of tea, Chen Wang straightened up, picked her up by the waist, and turned her over.

Feng Lin's eyes seemed to be filled with mist at this moment. Sensing Chen Wang's actions, she exclaimed in surprise, "No... I was wrong."

Chen Wang said, "You little vixen, you've been seducing me all this time. I'll let you know the price of seducing me."

Immediately afterwards, indescribable sounds rang out in the room, making one blush with embarrassment.

The next day

Chen Wang asked Feng Lin to go out and learn about the other medicinal materials needed to refine the Nine Revolutions Pill.

Feng Lin appeared extremely well-behaved.

That day, Chen Wang killed the Flower Immortal, who was like a nightmare to her, leaving a deep impression on her.

Therefore, when facing Chen Wang, even if he sometimes wanted to tease him, he couldn't help but feel a sense of awe.

They look like they're easy to bully.

Feng Lin was now dressed neatly and had changed her clothes.

She has a pretty face, but her clothes are rather simple and don't attract much attention.

He then went out to gather information.

Chen Wang did not go out for a stroll, but instead practiced the Niwanzhen Preservation Art in the courtyard.

When he practiced, he felt a cool current flowing into his body, which was very comfortable, and his speed was also a little faster than usual.

"The Spiritual Qi here is not the most concentrated in the entire Black Market, so this cool air should be unrelated to the Black Market."

Chen Wang recalled the conversation between the two female disciples that day.

The Green-Clad Girl seemed to say that Feng Lin possessed a Mystic Yin Body and was being targeted by Flower Immortal, making her a highly nourishing substance.

"Could it be a problem with her constitution? When I get back, I'll ask her about the Joyful Union Sect's Cultivation Method and see how they differ from my Essence Extraction Art."

The effects of the Essence Extraction Art are quite powerful; it can be used on both humans and animals, making it incredibly potent. However, Chen Wang has never used it.

Sensing that Feng Lin's physique was somewhat special, he couldn't help but have some thoughts. It wasn't that he wanted to use her to replenish his energy, but rather that he wanted to learn some Dual Cultivation Method and learn a few new positions.

Chen Wang was staying in the house at the time, while Feng Lin was out running errands.

He couldn't help but pause in surprise. "Doesn't this count as me living off a woman?"

He thought about it very seriously and finally concluded that he was definitely not living off a woman.

"How can this be called living off a woman? Eating her food, living in her house, and making her run errands, this can only be called freeloading."

Chen Wang thought to himself.

Being a kept man is considered unmanly, but getting something for free is not.

Getting something for free will only make Chen Wang happy.

Soon, Feng Lin brought back news that almost all the medicinal herbs Chen Wang needed to refine the Nine Revolutions Pill were available here.

Chen Wang's eyes lit up immediately. "Are you sure?"

Feng Lin nodded. "I've already visited several places and found out about the medicinal herbs, but they're quite expensive."

The Golden Lotus Seed seed alone is worth one hundred Spirit Stone, and the Nine Revolutions Pill requires three Golden Lotus Seed. This one ingredient alone costs three hundred Spirit Stone, which is an astonishing figure.

Chen Wang nodded. "Money is not the problem, the problem is not finding the medicine."

Feng Lin blinked. So wealthy and powerful?

I've been struggling with the rent lately, and I'm really short on money.

If Chen Wang hadn't come earlier, she would have had to find a way to do some small business, rent a stall, and earn Spirit Stone to make ends meet.

Chen Wang thought for a moment and said, "I'll go buy these medicinal herbs first, and then come back for dinner."

"Eat?" Feng Lin was taken aback.

Chen Wang nodded. "Yes, let's eat."

Chen Wang eats three meals a day very regularly, sleeps very regularly, and eats very refined food, which is quite different from ordinary cultivators.

After he went out with Feng Lin, he quickly found the stall or shop where the medicinal herbs were located, under Feng Lin's guidance.

It is evident that Feng Lin put in a lot of effort, and that she is quite familiar with these places.

After several rounds of bargaining, Chen Wang bought almost all the medicinal materials needed to refine the Nine Revolutions Pill.

Chen Wang's Spirit Stone were also completely used up.

Not only that, but they also acquired some Demon Beast corpses. Although they were still missing one crucial medicinal ingredient, the Five-Colored Lotus, Chen Wang was in high spirits.

However, he soon realized a new problem: he couldn't refine the pill himself.

If we were to take this Nine Revolutions Pill out and have someone refine it, we wouldn't know who would be reliable.

A thoughtful look appeared in Chen Wang's eyes.

He glanced at Feng Lin, who seemed lost in thought, and asked, "What's wrong?"

Feng Lin snapped out of her daze and said softly, "It's nothing. I was just a little dazed by how lavishly you spent money just now."

Chen Wang said helplessly, "Didn't you have any Spirit Stone on you when you were here earlier?"

Feng Lin said, "At most, I had more than two hundred Spirit Stone, but that was only enough to buy two Golden Lotus Seed seeds."

Two hundred Spirit Stone is a huge sum of money in the Red Cloud Sect Market, but don't forget, she is following a Foundation Establishment Realm expert and is his disciple, so this amount of money is not too much.

Moreover, Chen Wang learned that Feng Lin didn't even have a single decent magic Law Artifact. All the Mid-Grade Magic Tool had been destroyed last time, let alone Superior Grade Magic Tool.

Moreover, she recently sold her belongings to stay here.

Chen Wang immediately put one hand to his forehead and said helplessly, "I asked you to scout ahead here, you don't need to wait here forever."

Feng Lin said somewhat aggrievedly, "There's an array here that isolates my aura. I'm afraid you won't be able to find me here and will think I've betrayed you."

Chen Wang sighed and patted her shapely bottom, saying, "You're so clumsy, I need to think about whether or not I should take you in."

Feng Lin immediately replied, "I'm not stupid, I just don't dare to offend you."

She sounded extremely aggrieved. She wasn't usually such a cautious person, but since she had decided to work with Chen Wang, she wanted to achieve something, so she was somewhat anxious about gains and losses.

Moreover, she didn't really have anything valuable to sell before, after all, she was originally just an ordinary rogue cultivator in the Market, and the Flower Immortal wasn't very generous.

Who would be generous with their own food? She still planned to eat Feng Lin when the time was right.

She was telling the truth; the working class is truly miserable.

Chen Wang didn't say anything more.

He and Feng Lin arrived at a shop, which was built in a very grand manner.

Unlike other shops, this one is officially operated, belonging to the shop under the jurisdiction of that Hu Dao Ren in the Market, specializing in handling and selling stolen goods.

Of course, they will also handle some ordinary magical Law Artifact.

After Chen Wang arrived, a waiter came to greet him.

This fellow was about thirty years old, with eyes that gleamed like gold. He was a master in the Late-Stage Qi Refining, but here he was just a waiter.

He greeted Chen Wang warmly.

Chen Wang asked, "Do you buy second-hand Law Artifact here?"

The waiter's smile remained unchanged as he said, "Yes."

Chen Wang then asked, "Where is the Demon Beast's corpse?"

The man said, "We'll take the bodies too."

Chen Wang blinked. "What about the Foundation Establishment Realm Demon Beast? Can you make that decision?"

The young man paused for a moment, then said, "I can't make that decision myself, but I'll get our manager for you right away."

Soon, a middle-aged man in his forties, wearing a large golden robe, walked over.

This person had a warm smile and was a master at the Late-Stage Qi Refining of Qi Refining. He would be very powerful outside, but here he was only responsible for receiving customers.

Chen Wang disposed of everything he had here, and the steward's eyes grew even brighter. When Chen Wang finally left, the steward personally saw Chen Wang off.

Someone noticed this scene and was stunned to see that it was the manager himself who brought the person out.

Although this Manager Lu was kind and easygoing and didn't seem to have a temper, he was quite famous here.

For ordinary small businesses, the shop assistants can handle it. But if someone can personally deliver the goods, the business must be exceptionally successful.

Seeing him escort Chen Wang out, everyone looked on with curiosity.

When one of Feng Lin's neighbors saw Feng Lin, she was taken aback and exclaimed, "Hey, isn't this Feng Lin?"

He saw Feng Lin following behind a handsome young man, who was escorted out by the well-known Manager Lu. Everyone became even more curious.

Feng Lin has a beautiful face and a graceful figure. Although her cultivation level is not bad, she is not allowed to fight here, so her cultivation level is not very useful. However, her poverty is very obvious.

Her neighbors, who knew she wasn't doing well and who knew what they were thinking, now looked at her with new respect.

Chen Wang disposed of many things in his hands, leaving them clean.

However, he had more than seven thousand Spirit Stone on him, which meant he was truly wealthy and had a lot of confidence to participate in the auction.

At this moment, Feng Lin wore a jade bracelet on her slender, fair wrist.

This bracelet is a Top Grade Magic Tool, which Chen Wang just exchanged here.

This bracelet is both offensive and defensive, and incredibly hard, making it quite suitable for female cultivators.

After giving away such expensive jewelry, Feng Lin's gaze towards Chen Wang changed; her eyes were filled with a strange light.

Women are always easily moved by such generous men, and female cultivators are no exception.

Feng Lin didn't even have Superior Grade Magic Tool before, but now she has suddenly become a Top Grade Magic Tool.

He himself did not make any significant contribution; he merely ran errands for Chen Wang to inquire about medicinal pills.

Chen Wang is indeed extremely wealthy now. He has disposed of all the herbs he has collected and the things in his fields during this period, and has transformed himself into a rich man with more than seven thousand Spirit Stone.

Replacing a Top Grade Magic Tool with a new one is very easy for him.

The result was that Feng Lin became even more devoted to him, and after returning home, she became even more passionate and enthusiastic, unlocking more ways to please Chen Wang.

"Following Chen Wang is perhaps the wisest choice I've made in recent years."

This thought couldn't help but cross Feng Lin's mind.

The Five-Colored Lotus is the final ingredient in refining the Nine Revolutions Pill, and it is quite expensive; at this time, its whereabouts are unknown.

Chen Wang posted the reward here.

With Feng Lin paving the way, he quickly integrated into the Black Market and became familiar with Black Market operating style.

When she got back, Feng Lin's neighbor greeted her with a smile. The man and woman were Alchemist, but their level wasn't particularly high.

Of course, Alchemist always have a somewhat prestigious status, so they tend to have a bit of arrogance in their daily lives.

He wasn't particularly fond of this poor female cultivator from out of town, but at this moment he took the initiative to step forward and said with a smile, "Feng Fellow Cultivator, this is a bottle of Qi Replenishing Pill. You've been here for so long and I haven't given you any gifts yet!"

Feng Lin took it, raised an eyebrow, and said calmly, "Thank you."

She was able to remain calm and quietly increase her strength after obtaining the Blood Soul Pearl, and also manage to survive under the Flower Immortal's control.

Her cunning and shrewdness were beyond that of ordinary women; she was simply too afraid of Chen Wang before.

She anticipated that the two men's motives must be that they had noticed her and Chen Wang entering and leaving stalls or shops.

The man was in his forties and looked shrewd.

He smiled and said, "May I ask how this fellow Daoist is addressed?"

Chen Wang said calmly, "Chen Sheng."

He didn't give his real name, but made one up.

The man cupped his hands and said, "My Wang Yuan, and this is my wife, Zhang Lingling. We are all neighbors, so please take good care of me in the future."

Feng Lin sneered inwardly.

During the time he's been here, the people in his neighborhood haven't been very welcoming to him.

Chen Wang smiled and said, "No problem, no problem."

The man asked curiously, "What is your relationship with Feng Fellow Cultivator?"

They were curious about the young man's extremely generous spending and what kind of relationship he had with the woman living in the poor alley.

Feng Lin felt a strange tightness in her heart. Although she was going to be Chen Wang's slave, for some reason, she wanted to put them in a bad position in front of these two men.

Chen Wang laughed heartily, grabbed Feng Lin's slender waist, and pulled her into his arms. "Isn't it obvious? She's my woman."

Chen Wang's actions immediately stunned the two Alchemist.

His wife was far less attractive than Feng Lin; they were not even in the same league.

The only good thing is that although the couple lives in a poor alley, their income is more comfortable, unlike Feng Lin who is struggling financially.

Feng Lin was stunned for a moment, feeling a strange mix of emotions as Chen Wang held her in his arms.
