Jiang Yubai appeared shortly after he stood outside.

The middle-aged man bowed and said, "Young Master, it's so good that you're alright. The Patriarch and the Ancestors were extremely worried."

Jiang Yubai looked back at the courtyard, his eyes darkening: "Come find me again in a month."

The middle-aged man took out a small box from his spatial storage, handed it to the young master, and then quietly left.

In the morning, Jiang Yubai handed the small box to Mo Chenchen.

Mo Chenchen couldn't wait to open it on the small table.

There were four books and a few small bottles inside.

The first book I took out was called "The Basic Record of All Laws". The book was not thick. It contained the incantations, spiritual power circulation, cultivation experience and practical application of more than ten basic spells from the early stage of Qi Refining to the completion of Foundation Establishment.

The second book, "Introduction to Alchemy," is quite thick. The first half introduces the basic principles of alchemy, alchemy furnaces, fire sources, fire control techniques, thirty-six methods of processing medicinal materials, and the key points of forming and storing elixirs. The second half contains about twenty common elixir formulas on the market, such as Qi-gathering pills, Yuan-cultivating pills, Qingxin pills, Bigu pills, Qingyun pills, and Xiaohuan pills.

The third book is "The Collection of Herbs," which is as thick as a brick. It contains detailed descriptions of hundreds of common spiritual herbs, minerals, and low-level monster materials, including their properties, origins, medicinal properties, mutual reinforcement and restraint, and preliminary processing methods.

The last book is "The Record of What I Saw and Heard," an encyclopedia of the Luo Yun Continent, which introduces the basic structure of the cultivation world, the sects and families of the Nine Provinces, common monster illustrations and how to deal with them, common knowledge about secret realms and dangerous places, and various cultivation arts, etc.

It's also a thick book.

Mo Chenchen held it in her arms with great affection. This was exactly what she needed right now. With these, she wouldn't have to go to Zhilanfang. She could just find a place to go into seclusion and travel through time.

Finally, he glanced at the man, then at the remaining bottles in the box, before putting the book into his storage bag and picking up the small bottle to examine it.

One bottle each of the following: Qi-Gathering Pill, Yuan-Nourishing Pill, Heart-Clearing Pill, Grain-Clearing Pill, and Minor Rejuvenating Pill.

Finally, Jiang Yubai also took out a pill furnace from his spatial storage.

"Jiang Yubai! You're so generous!" She never expected there to be such an easy-to-fool young master in this world, giving away gold coins, equipment, and even elixirs.

These might be worthless little things to Jiang Yubai, but for Mo Chenchen, they were hard-won.

"It was nothing," he said casually, looking away.

It is obvious that people are very averse to having too much interaction with strangers.

Those who cultivate themselves are most afraid of being connected by cause and effect, which is why they try their best to replenish Mo Chenchen's energy.

For the next month or so, life seemed to return to its previous rhythm.

Mo Chenchen was wondering why this person hadn't left yet; if he left, she could go into seclusion.

Jiang Yubai wanted to consolidate his position further, as this remote location would make it difficult for the enemy to find him.

Since we can't leave, let's study. If we encounter anything we don't understand, we can ask him when he comes out for some fresh air.

Men no longer need to eat; they can just take a fasting pill. Mo Chenchen originally wanted to try it, but seeing that there were only ten pills, she decided against it.

I just cook myself something simple every day to get by.

She hadn't entered the space for a long time; she only went in on the first day she arrived at the courtyard, and hadn't dared to since.

As the day of departure drew near, a faint sense of reluctance, which he himself was not even aware of, quietly grew.

This simple yet peaceful courtyard, this straightforward yet vibrant and interesting girl, these two months away from conflict, focused on her own recovery and teaching... actually made him feel a little nostalgic.

This was a tranquility he had rarely experienced in the past twenty years of family infighting and cultivation competition.

On the day of their parting, the two sat facing each other at the stone table in the courtyard.

Jiang Yubai hesitated for a moment, then took out a dark green jade pendant.

The jade pendant felt cool to the touch, and the carving was clearly not ordinary.

A white character is carved on it, and there is a faint sense of spiritual energy flowing through it.

"Miss, this is a gift for you. If you ever travel to Yunzhou and encounter any problems you cannot solve, you can take this to any shop that displays the 'Cloud and Water Pattern' mark for help, and you may find some convenience."

Explaining the pros and cons: "Of course, this item may also attract unnecessary attention. Whether to use it or not, and when to use it, is entirely up to the young lady to decide."

Mo Chenchen picked up the jade pendant and examined it. It felt heavy in her hand, not only because of its weight, but also because of the sentiment behind it.

The other party is repaying the debt of gratitude for saving their life.

Mo Chenchen didn't mince words and simply put it away: "Thank you!"

Watching her nimble movements, Jiang Yubai felt a sudden, unsettling sadness about parting.

This girl, as expected, has no lingering attachment whatsoever; she's still just a little girl.

He shook his head inwardly. Oh well, this is a clean and decisive way.

"Miss, I'm setting off now. If fate allows, we'll meet again."

Mo Chenchen stood up and nodded: "Take care, until we meet again."

Jiang Yubai gave her a deep look, then without further hesitation, turned around, pushed open the courtyard gate, and his figure quickly disappeared.

Mo Chenchen stood at the door, and after a long while, seeing that everyone had completely left, he let out a long, satisfied sigh.

He stretched lazily, a relieved yet incredibly excited smile spreading across his face: 3,100 high-grade spirit stones! Three precious books! Several bottles of pills that he could use right now, and a jade pendant—a huge profit!

It's been quite a while since I ran away from the Mo family. If I calculate the original owner's age, I'm fourteen years old now.

Fourteen years old, at the third level of weapon crafting.

Jiang Yubai left, and Mo Chenchen didn't linger there either.

With less than two weeks left before rent was due, she didn't say goodbye to the broker. She left the key inside the house, put everything she could use into the storage space, and then left.

Continuing south, I planned to go to a slightly larger city to buy some herbs for alchemy.

There are herbs in Luoxia City, but not all of them. She only managed to buy the lowest grade, the complete set of herbs for Xiao Huan Dan. As for the others, they were not complete.

After traveling along the official road for seven or eight days, and then hitching a ride on a passing caravan of ordinary merchants, she arrived at a city called Flying Star City.

Feixing City is more than ten times larger than Luoxia Town, and its city walls are magnificent.

The town was lined with shops, bustling with pedestrians, and there were noticeably more cultivators. Even the spiritual energy seemed to be more concentrated than in Luoxia Town.

There must be some kind of spirit-gathering formation.

There are also courtyards in the city that are rented out to cultivators. Mo Chenchen went to several places and inquired for a long time before finally finding one with a price that suited her.

There is a small courtyard near the edge of the city wall.

The courtyard is somewhat dilapidated and quite remote, with basic defensive barriers. Its only advantage is probably its quietness.

The monthly rent is ten low-grade spirit stones, and a one-month deposit is also required, for fear of damaging the well and defensive restrictions in the courtyard.

Mo Chenchen couldn't help but sigh. This place was smaller and more dilapidated than the courtyard in Luoxia Town, yet it was much more expensive.

It's dilapidated, but it's much cheaper than an inn.

You need a place to settle down before you can move on to the next step.
