"Boss Ye, could I have another cup?"

After finishing one cup, Nalan Yanran was clearly still not satisfied. Holding up her empty cup, she looked at Ye Yun with longing in her eyes.

"No problem."

Ye Yun readily refilled their cups.

Before long, the three of them had finished off another large bottle of Pepsi.

"Is there no more?"

After draining the remaining cola from her cup, Nalan Yanran saw that the bottle was already nearly empty. She froze slightly, disappointment appearing in her eyes. Clearly, she had not had her fill yet.

"How could there be no more? I'll definitely make sure you drink to your heart's content today."

A faint smile appeared on Ye Yun's face. With a thought, he took another large bottle of Pepsi directly from the System Space.

Nalan Yanran's face immediately lit up with delight. Shamelessly handing her Ice Crystal Cup to Ye Yun, she looked at him eagerly. "Boss Ye, please fill it up again."

"Alright."

After chilling the Pepsi in his hand, Ye Yun immediately refilled their cups.

He had to admit that having someone to eat Instant Noodles and drink cola with after coming to this other world made Ye Yun very happy.

It instantly gave him the feeling of his previous life.

It was as though he had never transmigrated at all.

That feeling made him very comfortable.

In the end, after the three of them finished two large bottles of Pepsi, Nalan Yanran and Yun Yun returned to the Misty Cloud Sect with their slightly swollen bellies, burping all the way.

When Yun Yun returned to the Misty Cloud Sect's main peak, Yun Shan was unexpectedly still waiting in the main hall.

The moment he sensed Yun Yun's return, he immediately summoned her over.

"Yun'er, how did it go?"

From the seat of honor, Yun Shan examined Yun Yun with an expectant look.

"How did what go?"

Yun Yun had not reacted yet and asked instinctively.

Yun Shan's mouth twitched slightly. He shot Yun Yun a glare. "Of course I mean your relationship with Boss Ye. How are things progressing between you? What is his attitude toward you? Has there been any progress?"

Yun Yun recalled what had happened that night. Ye Yun had treated her to Instant Noodles and cola. The two of them should be considered friends by now.

Thinking of this, Yun Yun smiled at Yun Shan. "The progress has been quite good. Boss Ye is genuinely a very good person."

Hearing Yun Yun's evaluation of Ye Yun, Yun Shan's eyes lit up. "Oh? What did you do when you visited Boss Ye tonight? Would it be convenient to tell your master about it?"

Yun Yun nodded and recounted everything that had happened that night to Yun Shan. Naturally, she did not mention Nalan Yanran.

She was still very protective of her disciple.

"You just ate Instant Noodles, drank... that beverage called Pepsi, and then did nothing else?"

Yun Shan immediately frowned upon hearing this, clearly dissatisfied with the outcome.

He looked Yun Yun over. She had dressed up especially today. Had I been overthinking things? Does Boss Ye have no interest in Yun'er at all?

"Isn't doing all that enough?"

"Master, Boss Ye was willing to take out so much food from his hometown for me to eat. At the very least, that means he considers me a friend. Didn't you ask me to win him over because you wanted me to become friends with him?"

Yun Yun asked in confusion.

Why was this foolish disciple so utterly clueless?

Hearing Yun Yun's words, Yun Shan could not stop the corner of his mouth from twitching.

Was that really what he meant?

Looking at his innocent-faced disciple, he sighed silently in his heart.

It seemed he could not count on this foolish disciple after all.

Then Yun Shan recalled the VIP Card Yun Yun had mentioned earlier.

"Yun'er, you said that as long as one's accumulated spending with Boss Ye reaches five hundred thousand Gold Coins, one can obtain a Level 1 VIP Card from him?"

Thinking of the benefits Yun Yun had described for the VIP Card, Yun Shan's heart stirred. Since the Yun Yun route was clearly not going to work, he could only place his hopes on this VIP Card.

Yun Yun nodded. "That's right, Master. Boss Ye told me personally that as long as someone spends five hundred thousand Gold Coins with him, they can obtain a Level 1 VIP Card."

"This disciple has already spent four hundred thousand Gold Coins with Boss Ye. Now, as long as I buy one more Jar, I can directly obtain a Level 1 VIP Card."

A brilliant smile appeared on Yun Yun's face. "When that time comes, even if Boss Ye leaves our Misty Cloud Sect, this disciple will still have one chance every month to go to him and buy Jars."

"Five hundred thousand Gold Coins for one VIP Card... In that case, we must make proper use of tomorrow's five Jars and try our best to obtain one more Level 1 VIP Card." A thoughtful look appeared in Yun Shan's eyes as he spoke solemnly.

"Obtain one more Level 1 VIP Card?"

Yun Yun was slightly stunned by his words, but then her eyes brightened.

That was right!

There would still be five Jars available tomorrow. If they handled things properly, they could indeed obtain another Level 1 VIP Card.

After pondering for a moment, Yun Yun looked at Yun Shan and said directly, "Master, why don't you open three Jars tomorrow? I'll explain things to Yanran."

What Yun Yun meant was that Nalan Yanran's Jar for tomorrow would be given to Yun Shan to open. Together with the two Jars he had opened today, that would make exactly five hundred thousand Gold Coins, enough to obtain a Level 1 VIP Card.

Yun Shan frowned slightly but did not speak. After a long while, he finally said, "Yanran will continue opening Jars tomorrow, and let her open three of them."

"Master, then what about you?"

Yun Yun was somewhat surprised by Yun Shan's words.

"That girl Yanran has better luck than I do. Letting her open the Jars may yield better items. Besides, you said that she fused with that Devouring Ancestral Talisman. Her future achievements are bound to be extraordinary. We must not make that girl feel slighted over a single VIP Card." Wisdom gleamed in Yun Shan's cloudy eyes.

"Besides, if the two of you obtain good items, would you refuse to let your master use them?" Yun Shan said with a light laugh.

"This disciple understands."

"Master, this disciple will certainly not disappoint you."

Yun Yun fell silent for a moment before replying in a solemn tone.

"Mm."

A gratified expression appeared on Yun Shan's face. "What I seek now is to break through to the Dou Zong realm. I hope that you master and disciple can fulfill my wish sooner."

Yun Shan spoke with a hint of sorrow. "After all, I do not have much time left."

Yun Yun answered resolutely, "This disciple will definitely help you successfully break through to the Dou Zong realm, Master."

Yun Shan nodded slightly, then suddenly added, "As for Gu He's Jar, don't touch his. However, do not reveal the matter of the VIP Card to him."

Yun Shan did indeed value Gu He greatly, but he had always maintained a trace of wariness toward him.

After all, Gu He had been recruited into the Misty Cloud Sect through generous benefits back then.

Although Gu He had joined the Misty Cloud Sect, their relationship was more accurately described as a partnership.

And after Gu He broke through to become a sixth-tier Alchemist and the name Pill King resounded throughout the Jia Ma Empire, that relationship became even more apparent.

With Gu He's status as a sixth-tier Alchemist, the current Misty Cloud Sect could no longer restrain him.

Perhaps one day, he would leave the Misty Cloud Sect outright for some reason.

A trace of surprise flashed through Yun Yun's beautiful eyes, but she quickly understood and nodded. "This disciple understands."
