A wasted cultivation cultivator, whose senior sister comes to his door asking for pills at the start

Upon hearing this, Chen Hong's expression changed slightly, and he asked in a deep voice.

"Huh? Who dares to be so bold!"

To dare to publicly beat someone from the Chen family, especially the son of the family head, in Wanmeng City is a blatant slap in their face.

Chen Wufeng looked at him and slowly began to speak.

"They are two guys with extraordinary backgrounds, both at the peak of the Transcendent Realm. Xiao Feng thinks they have quite a background."

Chen Hong frowned slightly and asked.

"What does the head of the family mean...?"

Chen Wufeng then gave his instructions.

"Don't rush into action. Send someone to keep an eye on them and find out what's going on."

This statement also has another layer of meaning: if they have a powerful background, then so be it.

If you don't have any powerful connections, well...

Chen Hong immediately nodded and cupped his hands in greeting.

"Understood, I'll arrange it right away!"

……

Inside the Sky Suite of a certain inn.

Hong Xian'er and Fei Qingluo were still resting and drinking tea in their room.

It wasn't until she saw Ye Yun, who had only returned around noon, that Hong Xian'er couldn't help but ask.

"Where have you been all morning, you rascal?"

Ye Yun did not say directly that he had gone to the Alchemist Association.

On the way back, he had already prepared his explanation and explained with a smile.

This morning, I went to see a senior outside the city.

As expected, this answer immediately caught the attention of the two women, who then asked curiously.

"Senior? Which senior?"

Feeling their gazes, Ye Yun chuckled softly.

"Of course, it's the Senior Nangong you all know."

"It was him?!"

This answer truly surprised both women.

Fei Qingluo, who had previously been in contact with him, asked in surprise.

"What did you want with that senior?"

She had heard from that fellow Daoist Nangong before that he had a very good relationship with Ye Yun.

On this point, Ye Yun smiled, half-jokingly.

"Through that senior, I obtained a few pills that can help me break through to the Foundation Establishment stage."

To some extent, he did obtain the pills through Nangong's identity, and it wasn't entirely a lie.

Upon hearing this, Fei Qingluo's eyebrows twitched slightly, and she asked in surprise.

"Pills? What pills?"

Hong Xian'er, standing beside her, also cast a concerned glance.

Afterwards, Ye Yun, as if after careful consideration, took out a jade box.

"You can look, but you must keep it a secret."

Then, Ye Yun opened it in front of them.

What was revealed was none other than a Grade Nine Dao Integration Pill.

Upon seeing the pill, both goddesses were shocked and exclaimed in surprise.

"This is... a Grade Nine Dao Integration Pill?!"

With their knowledge, although they had never seen it in reality, they had both heard of this miraculous elixir in ancient books.

"That's right."

Ye Yun nodded and explained with a smile.

"That senior heard that I was preparing to break through to the Foundation Establishment Realm, so he specially prepared some auxiliary pills for me."

Hearing this, the two women were even more shocked.

Of course, the shocking part wasn't the elixir itself.

Rather... it's about the relationship between Ye Yun and that Senior Nangong.

Especially Hong Xian'er, who looked at him with a strange expression.

"Hey, you're not that Senior Nangong's illegitimate son, are you?"

"Cough cough... How could that be!"

Ye Yun shook his head and quickly denied it.

However, Hong Xian'er asked suspiciously.

"If not, then isn't he being way too good to you?"

Fei Qingluo chimed in from the side.

"Yes, not to mention all the pills you had before, you've even given me the Dao Integration Pill so easily this time."

"And you're saying you didn't have this kind of relationship with him before?"

Upon hearing this, Ye Yun wore a helpless expression.

Finally, having no other choice, he could only shift the blame onto the other person, shrugging his shoulders.

"I'm so sorry, but Senior Nangong asked me to keep these things a secret, so..."

Anyway, no one can really verify it, so people can just say whatever they want.

For this reason, Hong Xian'er and Fei Qingluo exchanged glances after hearing this.

"Well... okay."

Hong Xian'er pondered for a moment, then said with a sense of relief.

"Since it's that senior's request, you'd better not disobey it."

Ultimately, she still cared about Ye Yun.

They were worried that these things would affect Ye Yun's relationship with that mysterious senior, Nangong.

"Yes, Xian'er, it's so good that you understand!"

Ye Yun grinned, stepped forward, and hugged the other person tightly, laughing.

"Come here, let your husband give you a kiss!"

This sudden action made Hong Xian'er blush slightly, and she pushed him away.

"Come on, Elder Fei is still here!"

Upon hearing this, Fei Qingluo, who was standing next to her, coughed lightly and turned her face to speak.

"Um... you can do whatever you want, just pretend I don't exist."

"Did you hear that?"

Ye Yun grinned and kissed her on the lips.

But no matter how you look at it, it looks like a forced kiss...

"..."

Hong Xian'er had no choice but to passively accept it.

After a moment of intimacy, Ye Yun seemed to remember something and said...

"Oh, right, there's something else important that I feel I need to tell you!"

These words once again drew the attention of the two women.

Hong Xian'er's eyebrows twitched slightly as she asked in confusion.

"What's so important?"

Ye Yun narrowed his eyes slightly and spoke slowly.

"I think... I might have found a clue about the Ascension Cult."

"What?!"

Upon hearing this, both women were even more surprised than before.

Fei Qingluo, in particular, pressed for an answer.

"Quickly, tell me, what clue?!"

Feeling the intense gazes of the two women, Ye Yun slightly altered the information he had previously obtained.

"The clue was given to me by Senior Nangong; he said it was outside Wanmeng City..."

Ye Yun attributed the source of the intelligence to another alias of his.

Then, he recounted the story to the two women himself.

The content was the same as what I had discussed with the sisters at the Alchemist Association.

After listening, Fei Qingluo's face darkened, and she immediately stood up and said.

"Okay, I'll go check it out right away!"

Because of her previous experience, she has been holding a grudge against the Ascension Sect and is determined to get revenge!

"etc."

Ye Yun immediately called out to her.

"Senior, you'd better not go."

Fei Qinglu frowned slightly and asked.

Why?

Ye Yun shrugged and said helplessly.

"The situation at this post is unclear, and I'm afraid something might happen to you."

"After all, according to intelligence, there is a high possibility that there are very strong experts at the Imperial Dao Realm there."

Clearly, he was genuinely worried that something like what happened in Fengbo City would happen again.

If the other party is arrested again, there is probably no possibility of rescue.

In that case, their losses will be enormous.

Upon hearing this, Fei Qinglu asked.

"I know it's dangerous, but even so, we can't just leave it uninvestigated, can we?"

"Of course we can't leave it uninvestigated."

Ye Yun shook his head and took a deep breath.

"What I mean is, senior, don't go, I'll go instead."

This suggestion surprised both women.

Fei Qingluo looked at him in surprise.

"You? You must be joking. Even I would be in danger going there, wouldn't you be in even more danger?"

Hong Xian'er, who was standing next to her, also offered a reminder.

"Yes, if something happens to you inside, things will be even more complicated."

Ye Yun shook his head and explained.

"Don't worry, have you forgotten the abilities I possess?"

He smiled slightly, glancing at Fei Qingluo.

"Last time, I was the one who rescued you, Senior Fei. If necessary, I can just replicate it again this time."

"The key is that I also have a way to conceal my aura, so I'm safe as long as it's not an Emperor-level expert."

"Besides, even if I'm exposed, don't I still have a trump card up my sleeve?"

Ye Yun's words reminded Hong Xian'er.

Indeed, the other party also possessed a teleportation scroll that could summon their master.

If it really comes to a critical moment, it could indeed save his life.

"this……"

After some thought, Hong Xian'er and Fei Qingluo exchanged a glance.

Indeed, just as Ye Yun said.

Of the three, he was the most suitable to infiltrate...

"Alright, then you can go over there."

In the end, Hong Xian'er chose to believe Ye Yun.

But at the same time, he couldn't help but remind her with a serious expression.

"But you must remember, no matter what happens, your safety must be your top priority!"

Even if you end up with nothing, you must come back safe and sound!

Even with his master's teleportation scroll, Ye Yun wasn't 100% safe.

If you're too careless, you might not even have a chance to use the teleportation scroll.

Ye Yun smiled faintly and nodded.

"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing!"

"Xian'er, don't you understand me? Compared to my life, I don't care about anything else!"

At this moment, Fei Qingluo pondered for a moment and asked.

"In that case, when do you plan to go?"

Clearly, she also acknowledged Ye Yun's past.

Because last time, I really got into trouble, and it was someone else who saved me.

That alone is something I can't refute.

Upon hearing this, Ye Yun pondered for a moment.

He quickly set a time.

"Let's go tonight. It'll be too easy to be discovered during the day."

Upon hearing this, Fei Qingluo nodded.

"Yes, that would definitely be safer."

Then, she thought for a moment and asked.

"And what about this afternoon?"

"Is that even a question?"

Ye Yun turned to look at Hong Xian'er and jokingly said.

"Our date isn't over yet!"

You see, the reason I rushed back was so that I could keep our appointment.

These words stunned Hong Xian'er.

"Huh? Are we still going?"

"Otherwise what?"

Ye Yun shrugged and said with a smile.

"An afternoon date won't stop me from sneaking in at night, right?"

"this……"

Hong Xian'er's lips twitched slightly, and she said helplessly.

"Ye Yun, aren't you being a little too relaxed?"

If it were me, what if I sneaked into a dangerous place at night?

I expect to start feeling anxious for a long time to come.

But Ye Yun's words were completely the opposite, as if it wasn't him who went.

"Well, it'll all be over eventually, so why worry about it too much?"

Ye Yun chuckled and looked at her, asking.

"So, Xian'er, are you going or not?"

"That...I'm fine with anything."

In the end, Hong Xian'er agreed.

The main reason was that I wanted to spend some more time with Ye Yun at this point.

Seeing this, Ye Yun nodded.

Fei Qingluo wholeheartedly agreed with this, and said with a smile.

"That's more like it, not letting other things affect your mindset."

"You two should have a good date and have some fun this afternoon."

Although she spoke sweetly, Ye Yun, who was standing next to her, couldn't help but glance at her.

"Hey Fei-senpai, don't sneak off to our date while we're on it!"

"If something happens to you, Xian'er and I will be in danger."

Clearly, Ye Yun was genuinely afraid that Fei Qingluo might act impulsively and sneak into the past behind his back.

Upon hearing this, Fei Qinglu rolled her eyes at him.

"Does that make me seem like the kind of person who doesn't know what's important?"

Ye Yun raised an eyebrow and asked curiously.

"So, what are your plans for this afternoon?"

Fei Qinglu pondered for a moment before explaining.

"I naturally intend to visit an old friend."

This surprised Ye Yun somewhat.

"Senior Fei actually has old friends in Wanmeng City?"

"Of course."

Fei Qinglu gave a soft hum and said indifferently.

"Over the years, I have traveled to various continents and have some acquaintances in various places."

In a way, she has a wide network of connections.

"I see."

Ye Yun asked curiously.

"By the way, who do you know here?"

Upon hearing this, Fei Qingluo glanced at him and smiled.

"Well... that's a secret."

"..."

Ye Yun's lips twitched slightly, and he said helplessly.

"Senior, are you getting revenge on me?"

She pulled this stunt after I had kept my relationship with Nangong a secret.

Fei Qingluo jokingly responded to this.

"It's good that you know."

Ye Yun was both amused and exasperated. Why did it sometimes feel like this Senior Fei was like a child?

But no matter what, as long as she didn't sneak into the Ascension Sect's territory, Ye Yun was relieved.

"Alright, senior, you can go ahead."

Seeing his depressed look, Fei Qingluo looked like she had succeeded in her scheme.

She smiled faintly and waved to the two of them.

"In that case, I will not disturb your private time any longer."

After that, Fei Qingluo stood up and disappeared out the window as a wisp of green smoke.

The speed was so fast that even Ye Yun was speechless.

"When did I become so fast?"

After coming into contact with more and more high-level cultivators, Ye Yun's longing for this became even stronger.

Then, he glanced at Hong Xian'er beside him and asked with a smile.

"Xian'er, how's your reply?"

Upon hearing this, Hong Xian'er nodded.

"Yes, it's all over now."

"That's pretty fast."

Ye Yun smiled faintly and joked.

"How about we play one more game before we set off?"

Hong Xian'er was stunned for a moment, then glared at him.

"You wish! If you come again, I'll probably be lying in bed for half a day again."

Ye Yun couldn't help but smile at her complaints.

"Just kidding, just kidding, let's go out now."

Hong Xian'er breathed a sigh of relief and responded.

"Wait a moment, let me tidy up."

I thought I wasn't going on a date this afternoon, so I didn't take care of my appearance much.

Since we're going out now, we should dress up nicely.

As a result, half an hour passed while getting ready.

Only then did I get ready and go on a date with Ye Yun.

……

On the other side of Wanmeng City, within the Alchemist Association.

Fei Qingluo looked at the two sisters in front of her and greeted them with a smile.

"President Bai, and Ruoruo, it's been so long!"

Bai Zhi and Bai Ruoruo were both quite happy to see her.

Bai Ruoruo, in particular, waved to him with delight.

"Long time no see, Sister Qingluo! I didn't expect to see you again so soon!"

Fei Qinglu smiled and explained.

"I came to Wanmeng City on some business, and since you were here too, I thought I'd come and visit you."

If Ye Yun were here, he would probably be quite surprised.

The old friends that Fei Qingluo mentioned were actually Bai Zhi and Bai Ruoruo.

Of course, she mainly had more contact with Bai Ruoruo, having worked with her for a period of time before.

It was through Bai Ruoruo's help that Fei Qingluo got to know her sister.

Upon hearing Fei Qingluo's words, Bai Ruoruo smiled happily.

"That's great! Let's drink until we drop tonight!"

"no problem!"

Fei Qinglu smiled and nodded.

Then, as if she had thought of something, she looked at the two women and asked.

"By the way, how have things been lately? I noticed you've been looking for news about the Rejuvenation Pill."

"this……"

Bai Ruoruo pondered for a moment, then sighed softly.

"Actually... I just came back to life."

There was nothing to hide about it, so I told him frankly.

"What?!"

Upon hearing this, Fei Qingluo was shocked.

"What happened to you?"

"That's a long story."

Bai Ruoruo sighed and explained.

"I was investigating a missing person case before, and as a result, I was targeted, injured, and killed."

Upon hearing this, Fei Qingluo's expression changed slightly.

Immediately, she turned to Bai Zhi and asked.

"President Bai, so that's why you were looking for the Rejuvenation Pill before?"

Bai Zhi nodded and took a deep breath.

"Yes, thankfully we found it in time."

Even now, when she talks about it, she is still filled with gratitude.

"I see……"

Fei Qingluo also felt fortunate.

Because I hadn't been separated from the sisters for very long.

So when they learned that they were looking for the Rejuvenation Pill, they didn't take it too seriously.

Now that I think about it, this pill was actually prepared for Bai Ruoruo.

Then, she looked at the two sisters and smiled.

"Fortunately, it seems you're quite lucky; you actually managed to find the Rejuvenation Pill in such a short time."

As a cultivator at the Imperial Dao Realm, he naturally knew very well how rare this level of pill was.

Honestly, three months is far too short...

When this matter was mentioned, Bai Zhi nodded in agreement.

"Yes, this is really too lucky."

"In fact, this happened today."

These words once again startled Fei Qingluo.

Her beautiful eyes widened slightly in surprise as she asked.

"Today? You mean, Ruoruo just came back to life today?"

"That's right."

Bai Zhi nodded, glanced at Bai Ruoruo beside her, and took a deep breath.

"Actually... if you had come half a day earlier, you probably would have seen Ruoruo's corpse."

"this……"

Fei Qingluo remained silent for a long time before sighing.

"Ruoruo, you really are very lucky."

"Alright, that's all in the past."

Compared to them, Bai Ruoruo didn't care much.

She looked at the two of them and smiled.

"However, I am truly grateful to that Fellow Daoist Nangong for bringing the Rejuvenation Pill in time."

"Hmm... Fellow Daoist Nangong."

Fei Qinglu nodded thoughtfully.

But then she froze, and quickly looked at Bai Ruoruo and asked.

"Wait, who did you say?"
