Chapter 89 The Sect's First Path to Wealth

In the stillness of the night, Meng Xihong and Bai Muyun sat on the edge of the bed, quietly watching Meng Yan'an as he slept.

The little guy's breathing seemed to be more stable than in the past few days, and a faint trace of color appeared on his pale face.

Bai Muyun reached out and gently stroked the strange rune between her son's eyebrows. Her eyes were full of heartache, but even more so, they were filled with renewed hope.

"My husband, Qing'er..."

"Yes, he succeeded." Meng Xihong held his wife's hand and said gently, "He is a natural body cultivator. The source power he cultivated has helped An'er more than Ji Beichuan and the others combined."

"That's great...that's great..." Bai Muyun murmured to herself, tears finally streaming down her face.

"Don't cry." Meng Xihong raised his hand and used his fingertips to wipe away her tears. "This is just the beginning. An'er will definitely get better."

Bai Muyun nodded emphatically, leaning on her husband's strong shoulder, her emotions gradually calming down.

She was no longer the naive and ordinary woman she once was. Since being given the "Immortal Bones" attribute by Meng Xihong and embarking on the path of cultivation, her vision and temperament had changed dramatically.

But her maternal instincts always softened her when she was with her child.

“My husband,” she said softly, “I overheard you and Brother Ji talking about the medicinal bath during the day, and it seems to have cost a fortune.”

Although we have some savings now, if we want to carry forward the body-refining lineage, I'm afraid... it will be difficult to continue.

A hint of approval flashed in Meng Xihong's eyes.

“My wife is right,” Meng Xihong said. “That’s why I came to see you today to discuss this matter.”

The cultivation of body-refining cultivators is inseparable from resources. However, we can't rely solely on natural resources; we must find a sustainable way to generate income.

“What my husband means is…” A hint of understanding flashed in Bai Muyun’s eyes.

“Huimin Pharmacy,” Meng Xihong uttered.

Upon hearing the words "Huimin Pharmacy," Bai Muyun's eyes lit up instantly.

Yes, Huimin Pharmacy!
In recent years, under her management and Meng Xihong's planning, Huimin Pharmacy has long since become the small shop it once was in Yunni Township.

It has opened branches in several surrounding counties. With its genuine medicinal herbs and fair prices, the business is booming and has long been the Meng family's biggest source of wealth.

More importantly, the core competitiveness of the pharmacy lies in the medicinal herbs that she, a cultivator with immortal bones, cultivates with her spiritual power, each containing a trace of spiritual energy!

These medicinal herbs have miraculous effects on ordinary people, and they can fetch high prices among cultivators.

"I understand!" Bai Muyun suddenly realized, her mind clearing up instantly.

"Does my husband intend for our pharmacy to specialize in selling the medicinal bath recipes and herbs needed for body tempering?"

“It’s not just about selling,” Meng Xihong shook his head and laughed, “it’s about monopolizing.”

"monopoly?"

“That’s right.” Meng Xihong’s eyes gleamed with shrewdness.

"We can teach the first three levels of the 'Brightening Furnace Scripture' for free, in order to attract all mortals in the world who crave power. However, if you want to cultivate it, you must use the medicinal bath specially made by our Heavenly Evolution Sect."

“We can categorize medicinal baths into different grades. For example, the most basic ‘Skin Tempering No. 1’ medicinal bath pack can only guarantee that cultivation will not go wrong, and its effect is mediocre, but it is affordable, making it accessible to most people. This is the ‘bait’.”

"If you want to cultivate faster and more effectively, you need to buy higher-grade 'essence medicinal baths' and 'spiritual energy medicinal baths,' which will naturally increase the price several times over. That's where our real profits lie."

"And all the core medicinal materials for the medicinal bath must be produced in our medicinal garden and prepared by you, my lady."

In this way, all body cultivators in the world will be inseparable from our Heavenly Evolution Sect and our Benevolent Pharmacy!

Bai Muyun was stunned. She had never imagined that a pharmacy could have such a grand scheme.

She looked at her husband, a man who not only possessed the responsibility and strength to put her mind at ease, but also the wisdom to strategize and plan for the world. She couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle: "Husband, if the merchants outside heard about your plans, they would probably call you a 'cunning merchant'."

Looking at his wife, who had regained some of her vitality, Meng Xihong lowered his head and kissed the top of her head, his smile deepening.

“My wife, in this world, if you don’t fight and compete, you will be bullied. All I ask for is to protect you and the children, and to prevent the Meng family from being manipulated by others.”

These methods may seem like schemes to outsiders, but for us, they are the foundation upon which we stand.

And you are the most indispensable link in this foundation. With you overseeing the herb garden and securing resources for the sect, I can finally rest easy. In the future, you will be the god of wealth for our Heavenly Evolution Sect.”

Bai Muyun felt both sweet and proud after being praised by her husband.

“I know my husband, what you say is also what I think.”

Having experienced so much, she certainly knew that this was the way things were now, and that she was no longer the weak woman who could only hide behind her husband and need his protection.

She can also use her abilities to support this family and the future of the sect.

"Don't worry, my husband, I'll take care of this!" she said with a firm look in her eyes.

From that day on, Bai Muyun devoted herself to the research of medicinal baths.

She categorized the various spiritual herbs that Meng Xihong brought back from the secret realm, and using her awakened water and soil spiritual roots and her [Immortal Bone] keen perception of medicinal properties, she began to constantly experiment, mix, and improve them.

What she needs to do is not just replicate Meng Xihong's prescription, but to create a standardized medicinal bath formula that is lower in cost, more stable in efficacy, and more suitable for large-scale production.

The herb garden in the secret realm became her exclusive laboratory.

She entrusted the daily operations of Huimin Pharmacy to the reliable manager Ji Fu, while she and Li Shi and Wang Shi stayed in the secret realm day and night.

As the wives of Ji Beichuan and Zhang Xianghua, Li and Wang had long considered themselves part of the Meng family. Although they lacked the aptitude for cultivation, they were meticulous and efficient. Under Bai Muyun's guidance, they managed the herb garden impeccably, becoming Bai Muyun's most capable assistants.

half a month later.

When Meng Xihong returned to the herb garden, he saw a completely new scene.

The once messy herb garden has been neatly organized. Different medicinal herbs are divided into different areas according to their habits, and they are growing vigorously.

Bai Muyun, meanwhile, was holding a thick stack of blueprints and explaining something to Li and Wang.

Seeing Meng Xihong arrive, Bai Muyun greeted him with a smile and handed him a packet of medicine powder wrapped in oil paper.

"Husband, take a look, this is my newly developed 'Skin Tempering No. 1'."

Meng Xihong took the medicine packet, opened it, and smelled it. A pure and domineering medicinal power wafted out.

He used his spiritual power to probe and was pleasantly surprised.

Although the medicinal power in this medicine packet is weaker than the original medicinal bath he used before, it is superior in that its medicinal properties are extremely stable. Moreover, several of the main ingredients have been replaced with lower-grade spiritual herbs that are easier to grow and have a higher yield.

"My wife, you are truly a genius!" Meng Xihong exclaimed sincerely.

Bai Muyun was a little embarrassed by the praise, her pretty face blushing slightly: "I just made some minor changes to my husband's prescription."

In this way, the output of our herb garden is enough to support hundreds of body refiners simultaneously undergoing the first stage of skin tempering, and the cost is less than 30% of the original.

"She's more than just a genius, she's my precious baby!" Meng Xihong was overjoyed and pulled his wife into his arms.

With this standardized "Skin Tempering No. 1", the most important part of his plan to build a large body-refining army was finally completed.

Bai Muyun leaned against her husband's chest, feeling his strong heartbeat, and her heart was filled with an unprecedented peace and contentment.

She knew that the future of the Meng family and the future of the Tianyan Sect were being drawn up by her and her husband, bit by bit, together.
