The center of Spirit City.

Spirit Hall Primary Academy.

It was high noon, and the sun was scorching.

Inside the dormitory, Qin Xuan sat on a soft leather sofa, his expression solemn as if he were deep in thought.

Aside from Xia Hui and Song Qingling, the talent of the other students in the academy is mediocre; they aren't worth cultivating.

Since that's the case, I have no reason to continue staying at Spirit Hall Primary Academy.

As for Spirit Hall... I'd better forget about it.

If I return to Spirit Hall, I'll be under the constant surveillance of Bibi Dong, which makes it inconvenient to do anything.

I remember there is a villa complex built near the springs in the center of Spirit City called Emerald Spring Villas.

I'll spend the next four years cultivating there.

But before that, I must have Song Qingling and the other girl consume a few immortal herbs.

Putting his thoughts aside, Qin Xuan pushed open the door and walked out of the dormitory building.

He was just about to head to the mimicry training hall to find the two girls when he bumped into them right as he passed the cafeteria.

"Brother Qin, when did you get back?" Xia Hui asked, looking surprised.

"Congratulations to Brother Qin for breaking through to become a Spirit Grandmaster," Song Qingling said with a smile.

Qin Xuan nodded slightly at Song Qingling before looking at Xia Hui and saying:

"Xiao Hui, do you remember the promise I made to you two years ago?"

"Two years ago..." Xia Hui murmured, her face suddenly lighting up with joy, her voice trembling with excitement:

"Brother... Brother Qin, could it be that you've found a way to help the Crape Myrtle Exquisite Pagoda break through its shackles?"

"I don't know if this method will work, and there are too many eyes and ears at the academy. Follow me!" As he spoke, Qin Xuan led the way out of the academy.

Xia Hui and Song Qingling exchanged a glance, their faces beaming with excitement, and they quickly followed behind him.

The core area of Emerald Spring Villas.

Outside a five-story villa.

"Mr. Qin, I wish you a pleasant stay!" The saleswoman in a black professional suit handed the keys to Qin Xuan as she spoke.

"Mm." Qin Xuan took the keys, nodded slightly, and dismissed the saleswoman in a few short words.

Once the saleswoman was out of earshot, Xia Hui remarked with emotion:

"Brother Qin, you're really extravagant, buying a villa in full with cash!"

"Anyone who didn't know better would think you were buying cabbage at the street market!"

"It's a mere fifty thousand Gold Soul Coins. Let's go inside." Qin Xuan remained indifferent, then used the key to open the main gate and walked into the living room.

"Xiao Hui, what's fifty thousand Gold Soul Coins?"

"Brother Qin spent eight hundred thousand Gold Soul Coins to buy you that soft armor back then!"

Song Qingling covered her mouth and chuckled, wearing an 'I understand you' expression.

"Qingling..." Xia Hui's cheeks flushed slightly, her voice soft and sweet, and she immediately took her arm and walked into the villa.

The pricing of goods on the Douluo Continent was vastly different from that of Blue Star.

On this continent, cultivation resources or treasures were usually the most valuable things, such as spirit bones, life-saving defensive gear, and weapons.

The price of real estate, by contrast, was quite average.

For instance, this villa in the prime location of Emerald Spring Villas only cost fifty thousand Gold Soul Coins, and the furniture inside had already been fully furnished.

Qin Xuan sat on the sofa and, with a calm and relaxed demeanor, took three immortal herbs out of his ring.

As soon as the immortal herbs appeared, the entire villa was filled with fragrance.

"What a lovely scent. Brother Qin, does consuming these herbs allow the Crape Myrtle Exquisite Pagoda to break through its shackles?" Xia Hui's eyes lit up, and she asked excitedly.

Qin Xuan smiled and shook his head, introducing them to the two girls:

"Xiao Hui, these three are not just herbs; they are true peerless immortal herbs."

"In a moment, you should consume the Silk Velvet Tulip. Perhaps this immortal herb can allow your spirit to break through its shackles."

As he spoke, his mind stirred, and the Silk Velvet Tulip floated in front of Xia Hui. Immediately after, two other herbs—one white and one red—floated toward Song Qingling.

The white herb emitted waves of chilling cold, while the red herb radiated a scorching heat like molten lava.

Song Qingling let out a long breath, her expression one of disbelief: "Brother Qin, these... are these two immortal herbs for me?"

Qin Xuan smiled and gave a light "Mm."

Seeing this, a heartfelt smile appeared on Song Qingling's frost-like face: "Thank you, Brother Qin!"

She had only come to accompany Xia Hui, and she hadn't expected to have a share of the immortal herbs herself, let alone two of them. It was truly an unexpected joy!

"These two immortal herbs are the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass and the Blazing Apricot Delicate. They must be consumed simultaneously and ingested within ten breaths, or their medicinal effects will dissipate."

"Consuming these two immortal herbs offers several benefits."

"First: immunity to water and fire. You will be immune to the vast majority of ice and fire-attribute attacks and environmental damage, such as lava or extreme cold."

"Second: immunity to all poisons. A miniature Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well will form within your body, neutralizing and suppressing all toxins. Even the Jade Phosphor Serpent Emperor Poison of the Poison Douluo will be rendered helpless against you."

"Third: a massive surge in physical constitution. Your physical strength and resistance to impact will be significantly enhanced, laying a superior foundation for your future cultivation."

"Good heavens..." Even the usually composed Song Qingling was somewhat flustered after hearing this.

Without a doubt, these are two priceless immortal herbs. Once revealed to the world, they could even trigger a bloodbath.

No, they are simply too precious. I cannot accept them!

Having made up her mind, she spoke up:

"Thank you for your kindness, Brother Qin, but these two immortal herbs are far too precious. I have done nothing to deserve such a reward; how could I possibly consume them?"

Just as Qin Xuan was about to speak, Xia Hui patted her on the shoulder and said bluntly:

"Qingling, just consume the immortal herbs here with me."

"Given Brother Qin's character, the immortal herbs he kept for himself are likely no worse than ours."

"We are all best friends with Brother Qin, so why be so polite?"

"Once our soul power levels have increased in the future, won't we be able to repay this favor to Brother Qin just the same?"

"This..." Song Qingling looked at the two immortal herbs with longing, still feeling somewhat embarrassed.

"Xia Hui is right; you should just consume these two immortal herbs."

"I have indeed prepared three immortal herbs for myself to consume in the future."

Seeing this, Qin Xuan offered a calm and breezy persuasion.

"Thank you, Brother Qin!"

"Song Qingling will keep this kindness in her heart, and I will surely repay it tenfold in the future!"

Song Qingling's willow-leaf brows relaxed, her face filled with respect.

"No need for formalities. Just absorb the immortal herbs right here," Qin Xuan said, waving his hand to urge them on.

Once he finished speaking, the two women didn't waste any more time; after swallowing the herbs, they began to meditate on the spot to refine the medicinal effects.

"Sigh..." Qin Xuan let out a soft sigh and fell into deep thought.

I don't actually have three immortal herbs suitable for me to absorb; I only said that so Song Qingling would set aside her pride.

If I hadn't said that, she never would have consumed these two herbs.

In truth, Qin Xuan had considered absorbing the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass and the Blazing Apricot Delicate himself, but he quickly realized it would be a waste.

The enhancement abilities of these two herbs overlapped significantly with the attributes of his Nine Nether Evil God Tiger, especially the crucial toxin immunity.

Rather than that, it was better to do a good deed and let his companions consume them.

In this way, he would gain a more powerful helper in the future.

Isn't that wonderful?
