The Immortal Empress, Unrivaled Through Eternity

The following morning, at the Mingyu Martial Arts School's pharmacy courtyard.

"Gurgle..."

Inside the medicine furnace, various medicines were constantly boiling, filling the air with their aroma.

"Medicine King's Scripture Experience +1."

"Medicine King's Scripture Experience +1."

Li Yunqing stirred the medicinal soup while circulating the Medicine King Scripture.

The medicinal energy, like the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, surged into her body, gathered in her dantian, and then circulated throughout her body, transforming into strands of internal energy.

Amidst the fragrance of herbs, the experience gained from the Medicine King Scripture increased rapidly.

Its internal strength grows just as rapidly, even faster than that of the Mingyu Fist.

With her master entrusting the pharmacy to her and the academy owner's approval, the task of brewing medicinal soup naturally fell to her.

It was also an essential step in her cultivation of the Medicine King Scripture.

The Medicine King Sutra absorbs the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, thus possessing healing effects. However, if it absorbs enough medicinal energy, the healing effect will be even stronger.

"Medicine King's Scripture Experience +1."

"The Medicine King Sutra (Introduction 617/1000)"

"So fast!"

Seeing the words flashing before her eyes, Li Yunqing couldn't suppress the smile on her face.

Last night, I spent half the time practicing the Frost Sword Technique and the other half practicing the Medicine King Scripture, but I only managed to increase my experience points in the Medicine King Scripture to a little over 550.

But this morning, I cooked a pot of medicinal soup and it actually gave me fifty or sixty experience points.

The medicinal power within his body was 30% greater than that of the Mingyu power.

As she refined her Mingyu Jin and Yaowang Jin, she could feel her skin and flesh becoming increasingly delicate, firm, and fair, like ice crystals after being forged through countless trials.

"At this rate, the flesh and skin tempering can be completed in three days!"

"If you do it nine times, you can start tempering your bones and muscles in less than a month and become a mid-level beginner."

"No, as the energy accumulates, the tempering speed will also increase!"

"In that case, I might reach the peak of the initial stage in three months at most!"

"If combined with elixirs, it will be even faster."

Thinking of this, Li Yunqing's movements became a little lighter.

The Medicine King Sutra teaches that healing and medicine preparation are both forms of spiritual practice.

She could instead use the nighttime hours to practice the Frost Sword Technique and comprehend its essence more quickly.

"Once you enter the realm of intent, you can begin to condense true qi. Once you achieve minor mastery of intent and open two extraordinary meridians, you become a low-grade qi realm martial artist."

Yesterday, her father and brother told her a lot about spiritual practice.

She already had a general understanding of the cultivation of the Qi Realm.

The twelve meridians are for internal cultivation, nourishing qi and blood, refining qi and strength, and tempering the physical body.

The eight extraordinary meridians are the channels connecting heaven and earth, and are the foundation for condensing true qi and connecting the inside and outside of the physical body.

"Little doctor, we've come to get the brewed medicine!"

Two figures stepped into the courtyard, their gazes fixed on Li Yunqing, unwilling to look away.

beautiful.

If Li Yunqing's appearance and figure were once outstanding among ordinary women, then...

So now, Li Yunqing is simply like a fairy.

Her skin was as clear and smooth as jade, and her features were delicate and beautiful, like a painting.

Even her figure became increasingly alluring, exuding a delicate fragrance that made people want to get closer to her.

Like an elf or fairy born from the mountains and forests.

So much so that now, many people are scrambling to come here to get the medicinal soup, just to catch a glimpse of Li Yunqing.

"Junior Sister Li is so beautiful! No wonder Senior Brother Jiang is so captivated by her!"

"If it were me, I wouldn't want to eat either!"

Two figures stood there, not daring to make a move, but their eyes were filled with deep amazement.

Feeling the gazes upon her, Li Yunqing didn't seem to care. She pointed to the medicine furnace and said, "You can take it to the dining hall now."

Her already flawless skin and delicate features made her appearance even more stunning.

Furthermore, due to her cultivation and body tempering, she has received no nourishment whatsoever, and now her figure and appearance have become increasingly alluring and beautiful.

Sometimes Li Yunqing thought that perhaps those immortal cultivators, nourished by the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, were only at this level.

"Am I... completely obscured?"

With her head slightly lowered, a hint of helplessness flashed in Li Yunqing's eyes.

I didn't notice it before, but lately when I'm walking or riding in a horse-drawn carriage, I always feel like my clothes aren't enough to hold me back.

"Junior Sister Yun Qing!"

Just then, Jiang Yu's voice rang out from outside the courtyard.

Before she could respond, Jiang Yu had already stepped into the courtyard.

He wore a dark blue robe embroidered with gold patterns that shimmered in the sunlight, exuding an air of nobility.

But at this moment, Jiang Yu's handsome face was full of apology.

"Junior Sister Yunqing, I didn't mean to deceive you!"

Jiang Yu walked up to Li Yunqing, her eyes filled with tenderness: "The God Worship Cult is too crazy. I don't want my junior sister to get hurt, that's why I did this."

"I didn't think too much at the time; I just wanted my junior sister to stay away from the chaos and be safe and sound."

"Please forgive me for any offense, junior sister!"

As she spoke, Jiang Yu took out a bottle of pills from her bosom and gently handed it to Li Yunqing.

"Power-Transforming Pill?"

Li Yunqing's nose twitched slightly, and she instantly smelled the pills in the jade bottle.

The Huajin Pill can catalyze internal energy and accelerate the body tempering process; one pill is worth three thousand taels of silver.

This one bottle is worth 30,000 taels.

"Senior brother, I don't blame you, but this is too precious, I can't accept it!"

Li Yunqing shook her head slightly. In the past, she did not understand the value of the pills and did not want to offend them. She could have returned the gift and treated them like friends. She might have accepted that.

But now, she doesn't want any more entanglement.

Moreover, ever since she met Jiang Yu, she has noticed that almost every time she sees Jiang Yu, it is Jiang Yu who apologizes.

She did believe that Jiang Yu hadn't thought much about it at the time, given his personality, but deception is deception.

"Senior Brother Jiang, please return. Focusing on your cultivation is the most important thing!"

After saying that, Li Yunqing stopped paying attention and took out her flying sword to start cleaning the medicinal herbs on the table.

Since alchemy is a form of spiritual practice, she naturally wouldn't slack off.

After processing the medicinal herbs, she still had to practice the Mingyu Fist, so she didn't have much time to get entangled with Jiang Yu.

Watching Li Yunqing intently processing the medicinal herbs, Jiang Yu looked helpless and remained silent for a long time before turning to leave.

Knowing Li Yunqing's stubborn temper, he naturally understood that this time it would probably take a long time to coax her.

But he has already made full preparations for a long battle.

He can't hide his feelings when he likes something.

Moreover, he admitted that he was a common man and preferred the beautiful Li Yunqing.

Or rather, 99% of the men in the world, as long as they can breathe, would probably fall in love with Li Yunqing if they saw her like this.

"despair!"

Not long after Jiang Yu left, abrupt footsteps sounded from the courtyard.

The next moment, a man dressed in a black robe with cloud patterns appeared out of nowhere and stood in the courtyard.

He went straight to the table and sat down opposite Li Yunqing.

A pair of eyes calmly examined Li Yunqing, finally settling on the flying sword in Li Yunqing's hand.

"Who are you?" Li Yunqing looked up at the man in front of her.

He was around thirty years old, exuding a murderous aura, tinged with a hint of bloodlust. His expression was indifferent, but his eyes remained fixed on me.

The black robe with cloud patterns is a special robe made by the Demon Suppression Division.

But the man in front of her had gold cloud patterns on his black robe, and even gold cloud patterns on his shoulder cape.

This is the style of robes worn by the four commanders under the leadership of the Demon Suppression Division.

"The flying sword in your hand was a gift I gave to the old hag!"

The man's voice was somewhat hoarse, but a look of amazement flashed in his eyes.

The girl in front of me looked young, but her figure was extremely alluring.

Her body was round and smooth, yet her waist was extremely slender, so thin that it seemed as if it could be broken with the slightest force.

Her facial features were flawless, and her skin was as smooth as jade.

Even the most beautiful and alluring demon women pale in comparison.

"You've come to have your injuries treated by your master?"

Li Yunqing remained calm, ignoring the gazes that were scrutinizing her.

He recalled his master's words: this flying sword was a medical supply for a mere lad from the Demon Suppression Division.

But in his master's eyes, this person was just a kid.

In her eyes, the person in front of her was clearly one of the four commanders of the Demon Suppression Division, a great figure in the Qi Realm.

"The master is away, and his return date is uncertain!"

"If you believe me, I can treat you."

"despair!"

As soon as Li Yunqing finished speaking, an arm was slammed onto the table in front of her.

"???"

Li Yunqing blinked, but before she could speak, the man said, "No need to take her pulse?"

"Does taking a pulse require slamming your hand on the table?"

Li Yunqing remained silent, but she gently placed her hand on the man's wrist.

Looking at those fair fingers and feeling the soft, smooth texture of his wrist, words from the book inexplicably came to mind.

"Slender, jade-like fingers!"

He used to disbelieve that such fingers could exist in the world.

But now it is perfectly manifested before my eyes, even surpassing it.

For some reason, his gaze lingered on Li Yunqing's face.

Looking at her slightly furrowed brows, I felt an urge to smooth them out with my own hands.

His heart skipped a beat, and he thought to himself, "Everyone has a love of beauty; it's not my fault."

Even so, his gaze remained fixed.

"A thousand-year-old cold poison!"

Li Yunqing looked up in surprise at the man.

The man was also extremely surprised: "You actually knew that? And might be the antidote?"

He was poisoned when he killed an evil god, and there was almost no cure.

Even the legendary healer, Granny Ghost, only used the Ghost Needle to suppress his pain and lessen his suffering.

"I can solve it!" Li Yunqing said softly, "but you can't afford the consultation fee!"

The Thousand-Year Cold Poison is a cold poison created by immortals and gods using their magical power to absorb the evil energy of a thousand-year-old ice.

Although it cannot compare to the legendary Ten-Thousand-Year Ice Soul, which can freeze everything with a single wisp, it is not far off.

She never expected that someone who had been poisoned could still survive instead of having all their life force extinguished and turning into a pile of broken ice.

A look of shock flashed in the man's eyes, and he spoke without thinking.

"You don't like Jiang Yu, and you don't want to marry Jiang Yu."

"Follow me, and I can guarantee your and your family's safety!"

Li Yunqing: "..."

How direct!

Does this count as being kept by a sugar daddy/sugar baby?

So it turns out that the practice of keeping a sugar daddy has existed since ancient times and has a long history!

If it were in her past life, and a rich woman had said that, she would have lay down without saying a word.

But in this life, even if you beat her to death, it's impossible for her to do it.

Wait a minute! Was that person... just hiding in the yard spying on us?

Also, is this the tone of someone begging for medical treatment?

She dared to say that, apart from those powerful demons and evil gods, there was probably no one in the entire Great Yu Dynasty who could cure her except for herself, who possessed the Medicine King Scripture.

Thinking of this, Li Yunqing spoke calmly and without any emotion.

"Please leave, sir!"
