I made the entire cultivation world cry

Chapter 165 Unreasonable Behavior (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

In the Yunlu courtyard, Hua Gu tried to pull Xuan Hui back, telling him to stop shouting, as it was not good to disturb the master's sleep.

Xuan Hui threw Hua Gu away, furious.

Upon hearing the sound, Hong Li pushed open the window of the alchemy room, her narrow fox-like eyes curving into crescents, looking like she was about to watch a good show.

The green wooden cauldron behind it was steaming, indicating that it still needed some time to reach the point of forming the elixir.

Xuan Hui was at his wit's end. Seeing that all the young disciples of this generation were going out to travel, he was so anxious that he couldn't sit still or sleep.

Today he must send Jiang Yi, that lazy bum, out to travel, get through the Heart-Fluttering Tribulation as soon as possible, and advance to the mid-Foundation Establishment stage as soon as possible, so as not to lose face for the Venerable One.

"Aren't you coming out yet? I'll count to three, and then it'll really burn!"

"One"

"two"

"You burn one and let me see."

"Three... Your Majesty!!"

The moment Danxi pushed open the door, Xuanhui's eyes suddenly reddened.

The bitterness of raising two little ones alone over the past two years welled up in her heart, and her voice choked with emotion, "Your Majesty! You've finally returned..."

He froze before he could finish speaking, his gaze darting back and forth between Danxi and Jiangyi.

"No, Your Excellency, why did you come out of her room? When did you return to the sect? Why did you come to see her as soon as you returned? Why didn't you come to see me first, but went straight to her? When did you become so close to her? Didn't you dislike her? You even told me in your letter to have less contact with her."

Xuan Hui's heart was shattered.

Danxi was having a headache when Jiang Yi followed her out and asked, "Master, why did you tell the Demon Master to keep his distance from me? Am I a particularly bad person in your eyes?"

Danxi's face fell. "Go away, why are you meddling in this fun!"

Although it was a reprimand, Xuan Hui could clearly see the intimacy between Dan Xi and Jiang Yi, which made him even more heartbroken.

"Your Excellency, you lied to me. You abandoned me without a word, leaving me to take care of them for three years. Do you know how I survived those three years?"

"To ease Your Majesty's burdens, I planted all the barren land on Liuyue Peak with spiritual herbs and kept a close watch on the rain and clouds every day. Your Majesty, you didn't even come to check on me when you returned. Instead, you secretly came to see her and even scolded me because of her..."

Danxi sighed, "Alright, stop fooling around. Let's go back and talk about it..."

"Who's making a scene!"

Xuan Hui suddenly became agitated.

"I'm stating the facts, how is that being unreasonable? Where am I being unreasonable? I'm not being unreasonable at all!"

puff!
Jiang Yi couldn't help but glare at Dan Xi, who shouted through her voice, "What are you laughing at? You'll end up just like me, not much better."

Jiang Yi reached out and pulled Hua Gu into her arms, whispering, "Hua Gu, let's not follow his example."

call!
Hua Gu nodded seriously, also feeling that this was not good; one should not lose one's temper with one's owner, it's ugly!
Danxi reached out to comfort Xuanhui, but Xuanhui turned away.

Seeing that her master was in a terrible predicament, Jiang had no choice but to resort to her trump card.

He reached into his robes and took out the Heart-Piercing Mirror, revealing just a sliver of its edge.

Xuan Hui was startled. "Your Majesty, I don't think this is the place to talk. Let's go back to your palace and talk."

When Danxi saw the Heart-Piercing Mirror, her eye twitched.

Danxi slapped a package into Jiang Yi's hand and left with Xuan Hui, restoring peace and quiet to Yunlu.

Jiang Yi opened the paper package in her hand, and the bright yellow pine nut candy looked particularly tempting.

Jiang Yi smiled knowingly and called out, "Master, when you're done with your work, could you help me refine a magic weapon? I've already prepared all the materials."

"understood!"

Jiang Yi withdrew her gaze and met Hong Li's eyes, who was perched on the windowsill watching the commotion. ∠(」∠)_
Hong Li's smile vanished abruptly, her eyes lowered guiltily, and she used her fox paws to close the window before returning to the green wood cauldron to continue refining pills.

In the corner of the alchemy room, various pills refined over the past six months were piled up in medicine bottles, forming a small mountain.

After switching to the Green Wood Cauldron, Hong Li's pill-forming rate reached 90%, with most of them being of medium to high quality, while low-quality pills became rare.

But Hongli was still worried because only high-grade pills could break even and make a profit, while mid-grade and low-grade pills would result in losses.

The mid-grade products they've refined are now just on par with the high-grade ones; they're still a bit short of making money.

Why can't it refine top-grade pills?
Hong Li flicked her claws and flipped open the book on the ground, which was full of content related to weapon crafting.

Since alchemy has no future, it should prepare another skill and learn weapon crafting as well.

Earning more spirit stones will give me more confidence and allow me to be more assertive in front of that woman, instead of being subservient.

One day it will let that woman know that it was Hongli who held up this family.

A tree lives by its bark, and a fox lives by its breath. It will use the spirit stone to bring down this greedy woman and prove itself!

Jiang Yi was unaware that Hong Li's dream had changed from becoming the Fox Clan Emperor to using spirit stones to defeat her. She walked to the octagonal pavilion and sat down, feeling very melancholy.

How can we get Hongli to swallow the tens of thousands of demon seeds that have already become inert?

Hua Gu has been consistently consuming the pills every day at the appointed time, and the levels of all her low-level spells are steadily increasing.

Because of the lie she told at the beginning, she can only sneak a few pieces into Hongli's mouth when she sleeps with Hongli now.

When Hongli woke up and discovered that her magic had improved, she thought she was some kind of unparalleled genius and became so proud that her tail was wagging in the air.

But that's too inefficient. We still need to tell Hongli the truth and let it take a large amount on its own.

Forget it, I'll just find an opportunity to be honest and avoid future trouble.

Jiang Yi picked up a pine nut candy and put it in her mouth. The sweet aroma melted between her lips and teeth, and she closed her eyes in relief.

Her master's return dispelled the gloom in her heart; it really is good to have someone to rely on.

……

Danxi followed Xuanhui to inspect various parts of Liuyue Peak. Looking around, the once barren hillsides had been cultivated into neat terraced fields, the spiritual soil was renewed, and the seedlings of spiritual herbs swayed in the breeze, full of vitality.

However, these low-grade spiritual herbs were of little use to Danxi, but Xuanhui had said he was watching Jiang Yi plant spiritual herbs, so he...

Understood!
That girl wanted to plant more, but didn't have the energy, so she tricked Xuanhui into helping her.

Perhaps there's also the intention of giving Xuan Hui something to do, to expend his excess energy, and to reduce his focus on jealousy and rivalry, which can be seen as relieving her burden.

This girl is so thoughtful!
Seeing Xuan Hui's expectant look, Dan Xi smiled and said, "Well done."

Xuan Hui's eyes welled up with tears. "Your Majesty... do you really think this is a good idea?"

“Of course, the spirit fields are well-organized and contain a wide variety of spirit herbs, so taking care of them is quite troublesome. Thank you for your help.”

Xuan Hui's eyes filled with tears, "As long as I can share the burden for Your Majesty, it's all worth it no matter how hard or tiring it is! Once these spiritual herbs have matured and been sold, I'll buy you robes and jewelry!"

Danxi thought to herself that these spiritual herbs were not even worth as much as a magic weapon she could casually refine, and with that girl around, these herbs probably wouldn't last until they were sold.

Danxi suddenly felt a pang of sympathy for Xuanhui and softened her tone, "Alright, now that the spiritual herb has been planted, you should take better care of it from now on. I'm really looking forward to the day it matures."

Upon hearing this, Xuan Hui's heart burned with warmth, and the weariness of the past three years vanished. With reddened eyes, he solemnly agreed, "I will certainly live up to Your Majesty's expectations!"

Danxi patted Xuanhui on the shoulder, "Alright, you go ahead and do your thing, I'm going to... go take a walk around."

Let's not talk about refining weapons for that girl; it's better to avoid trouble.

"By the way, your promotion to the Earth rank is on track. During this time, focus on farming and be ready to receive good news from me. Also, tell Cangyun not to run around, as we may need his help sometime."
