Aboard the Ship, Nothing Major Happened Along the Way

Seeing that Tao Yaoye was still in a daze, another burly man quickly said, "The Chamber of Commerce also offers financial products with an annual interest rate of 8% to 12%, a sure-fire way to make money!"

Tao Yaoye deeply understood what Senior Brother Lu meant when he said that wealth should not be flaunted, otherwise it would cause trouble.

Now the trouble begins.

One after another, they introduced investment and wealth management, the establishment of foundations, low risk and high return... She couldn't understand any of it.

"No, I don't need it." Tao Yaoye firmly refused.

What is 12% interest? She invested 10 million Spirit Stone into Dream Bubble, expanded its scale, and the returns she obtained far exceeded 12% interest.

"Oh, that's a real shame." Seeing Tao Yaoye's resolute attitude, the burly men could only shake their heads in regret and give up.

How come such a fat duck doesn't fall for it?

Fortunately, it was just a minor incident, and nothing major happened along the way.

Aside from officials stopping the airship, claiming a murderer was suspected of hiding inside and requiring verification of everyone's identity, the murderer then suddenly attacked and injured people, but was subdued by several burly men from the Chamber of Commerce who were selling their products.

The murderer shouted that he had poisoned the captain and that only he had the antidote. He warned that if the captain didn't release him, he would surely die and the ship would sink.

Unfortunately, before anyone could step forward and say they had learned how to fly a flying boat, the captain came out and said that he was a poison cultivator and that poison was useless to him. He then went back to fly the flying boat.

There was also Golden Core cultivator who sneaked in to avoid paying the fare. He was flying while taking medicine, and when he got tired, the flying boat happened to pass by. He secretly slipped to the stern of the flying boat and hitched a ride.

The problem was that their concealment skills weren't good enough; they couldn't evade the ticket checking system and were caught, so they had to pay extra.

There was also a pregnant woman in labor who was in so much pain that she fainted. Fortunately, an Alchemist among the passengers intervened and saved the lives of both mother and child.

"Honey, wake up, we're almost there!" The husband grabbed the pregnant woman's hand and shouted, but the intense pain had already caused her to faint.

Everyone around was extremely anxious but didn't know what to do. The pregnant woman had fainted; it seemed like both she and her unborn child might die.

"I am Alchemist, I'm here." A female voice rang out, and Lu Yang vaguely recognized the voice.

He turned his head and saw that the speaker was a female cultivator with a circle of golden pill patterns on her cuffs. This was the pill robe that only Alchemist were qualified to wear. The female cultivator had an identity jade pendant hanging from her waist, indicating that she belonged to the Ask Dao Sect.

Lu Yang remembered that this person was a senior sister from Elixir Cauldron Peak named Jasmine, and she was in the middle position when they lined up to fight him.

This means that among the senior brothers and sisters who fought Lu Yang, Senior Sister Jasmine's strength was at a mid-level, that is, at the Nascent Soul Realm.

Lu Yang didn't rush up to greet her; he also wanted to know how Senior Sister Jasmine planned to help the pregnant woman.

Senior Sister Jasmine scanned the pregnant woman's condition with her Divine Sense, and her brows furrowed slightly.

If a pregnant woman is in a deep coma, she won't be awakened without drastic measures, but if the measures are too harsh, it could harm the baby.

Since that's the case, there's only one way.

Senior Sister Jasmine closed her eyes, and a tiny figure, about three inches tall, flew out from her mind and entered the pregnant woman's head, temporarily taking over her body.

Quack--

Not long after, a baby was born.

"Nailed it."

Senior Sister Jasmine breathed a sigh of relief as her Nascent Soul returned to her body.

Upon seeing the baby born safely, the husband excitedly grasped Sister Jasmine's hand, saying, "Thank you so much for helping my wife give birth! Thank you so much!"

Senior Sister Jasmine: "..."

If you don't know how to say thank you, you don't have to.

Despite her best efforts, Senior Sister Jasmine was unable to persuade the other party not to send the banner.

"Senior Sister Jasmine." After finishing his business, Lu Yang stepped forward to greet her.

"Junior Brother Lu? And Junior Sister Tao, I remember this one is Junior Sister Lanting from the Moon Laurel Palace? How come the three of you are together?"

Senior Sister Jasmine had a good impression of Lu Yang, after all, the two had intimate physical contact, and there was even blood.

"It wasn't that I was doing a mission with Junior Sister Tao, but we just happened to run into Junior Sister Lanting who was doing the same mission. What a coincidence!"

"I see."

"Senior Sister Jasmine, are you also doing a mission?"

Senior Sister Jasmine flicked her sleeves with a hint of pride. "I went to take the Alchemist qualification exam. Look, here are the clothes I just got."

"Senior Sister, weren't you already Alchemist a long time ago?" Senior Sister Jasmine is already at the Nascent Soul Realm, how come she's only Alchemist?

"Hey, that's only recognized within the sect. Outside, it's not recognized. Practicing medicine outside is illegal and you're likely to get caught. I always treat people secretly when I go out on missions."

"I was thinking the other day that instead of going through all this trouble every time, I should just get an Alchemist qualification."

"Congratulations, Senior Sister, on becoming a certified Alchemist of the Alchemy Alliance." Lu Yang cupped his hands in congratulations, Tao Yaoye and Lan Ting followed suit in a similar manner.

Senior Sister Jasmine waved her hand, feeling annoyed by the experience of the exam. "What's there to congratulate? Taking an exam involves a ton of things. I had the wrong exam date, went to the wrong exam room, and only after the exam did I realize it was the selection exam for the branch president of the Alchemy Alliance. No wonder there were so many high-level candidates, almost as good as me."

"I got first place, but when I went to verify my identity again after the exam, I found out that I wasn't Alchemist and wasn't qualified to take the exam."

"There was no other way, so I had to go to the examination hall for trainee Alchemist to take the exam. I was refining pills in front, and a bunch of alchemy masters were standing behind me learning how to refine pills. It was very annoying."

Lu Yang felt that what Senior Sister should consider was the psychological pressure felt by the trainee Alchemist who were taking the exam with her.

"As you've seen, I successfully became Alchemist."

"The Alchemy Alliance even asked me if I could serve as a branch president, but I thought it would be too much trouble, so I declined. In the end, they just forced me to take on the title of honorary branch president."

Senior Sister Jasmine took out a golden Pill Furnace badge from her identity jade token, with the words "Jasmine" engraved on the back.

Lu Yang: "..."

As expected of a senior sister from Elixir Cauldron Peak, her style of doing things is truly different from ordinary people.

Fortunately, after helping the pregnant woman give birth, nothing else happened, and the flying boat arrived at the Ask Dao Sect smoothly.

"Goodbye, Junior Sister Lan!"

"Goodbye!"

Lu Yang and Lan Ting waved goodbye.

This flying ship includes two stops: the Ask Dao Sect and the Moon Laurel Immortal Palace.

Upon arriving at the Ask Dao Sect and entering its core area, they saw their Meng Jingzhou, passing by.

"You've finished your seclusion?" Lu Yang casually called out to Meng Jingzhou.

"Seclusion?" Meng Jingzhou was completely bewildered.

Tao Yaoye smiled and said, "Senior Brother Meng, have you forgotten? A few days ago, I was going to do a mission and wanted to ask you and Senior Brother Lu to come along, but you were in seclusion at the time, so in the end, it was just Senior Brother Lu and I who went on the mission together."

Meeting Tao Yaoye yet tinged with a hint of threat, Meng Jingzhou feigned sudden realization.

"Oh right, I was indeed in seclusion for those few days. I just came out of seclusion, and my mind is a little fuzzy."

The second update will be at 11 PM.
