Chapter 249
Lin Lingling wore a blank expression and suggested earnestly, “Governor, this jade slip is filled with dense characters. Just understanding it will take a lot of time. I’m a science major, and looking at these words makes my head spin. Is there a way for me to grasp this divine skill in an instant? Like, if you just grab my head and shout ‘Zhong’ or ‘Kai,’ and turn the tide?”
Chen Huai'an: “…”
…
Thirty seconds later.
Lin Lingling was unceremoniously tossed out of the No. 0 containment facility by Chen Huai'an, who had a firm grip on her head.
Along with her, two jade slips were thrown out.
“Get lost!”
The alloy door slammed shut with a bang.
Lin Lingling pouted, feeling wronged.
She was just making a suggestion; if it wasn’t taken, so be it. No need to be so fierce.
But then she thought about how Chen Huai'an had obtained these things by selling his looks, and she couldn’t help but feel a pang of sympathy for him.
What a great skill!
This… this must be ground down to nothing like dried radish with a steel wool ball…
Although Governor Chen usually seemed indifferent to the Demon-Slaying Division, when there was a real need, he truly stepped up!
At the entrance stood two subordinates, who looked astonished when they saw Lin Lingling being thrown out.
In front of them, Lin Lingling’s small expression vanished in an instant, returning to her usual poker face.
“What are you staring at? This is the Governor’s tough love. Does the Governor pat your heads like he does mine?”
“Yes, Captain.” The two demon slayers quickly lowered their heads.
Lin Lingling huffed lightly, crossing her arms. “I’m giving you two a task. Go buy some ginseng, deer antler, epimedium, and oyster essence. The Six Flavor Rehmannia Pills aren’t enough for nourishment. Our good Governor of the C Province Demon-Slaying Division deserves our love and support from every team member!”
“Captain, the Governor’s code name is KSC-0 Tyrant. He won’t tear us apart for buying these, right?”
One of the team members felt uneasy.
To put it bluntly, the Governor was already superhuman; did he really need these things?
“What do you know? Do you understand what it means to return to simplicity?”
Lin Lingling said earnestly, “A thousand-mile dike is destroyed by an ant’s burrow. What we need to do is block all the ant holes!”
“Well then, Captain, what are you going to do?”
“I haven’t signed up for the Governor yet. I’m going to do that now.”
With her hands behind her back, Lin Lingling walked away with a swagger.
How could she not discuss something like signing up with the Governor?
Of course, she would only help with the registration if the Governor agreed.
These are the wisdoms of dealing with people…
…
When Chen Huai'an returned to the small world, he had more than just the Heilin sword at his waist—he also had the Emperor Sword, Chen Jiang.
With the sword spirit already showing interest in him, now that he possessed both the Pure Yang and Xuan Yin sword bones, Chen Jiang had transformed into a devoted admirer. As he gripped the hilt, a layer of mist erupted from the sword, and the blade trembled in response.
Chen Jiang was like a once-fallen noble lady who, after being married off as a concubine and enduring cold treatment for a while, finally recognized her worth when she was cherished.
After being pampered, she savored the taste of power.
Perhaps it was because he had wielded it while slaying so many in the Dongxu realm, the sword spirit within the Heilin sword was already taking shape.
The Heilin sword was like a gentle and understanding wife, well-mannered and sensible, embodying the qualities of a proper main wife.
Even when he held the Chen Jiang sword, she merely sighed softly, showing no signs of jealousy.
This wouldn’t be the case for other disciples in the Sword Pavilion. If they had two swords simultaneously, both with developing sword spirits, they would inevitably clash until one devoured the other.
“Senior, I’ve refined four Mid-Grade Hunyuan Bu Tian Dan. Due to limitations in technique and materials, please don’t be upset, Senior.”
Dan Bai had been waiting by the pool at the Loxia Peak for quite some time.
In fact, the speed of refining the pills was much faster than this.
She had deliberately waited half an hour before coming out of her small room.
She had initially wanted to delay a bit longer but couldn’t bear to see Yun Baiyu and the three Sword Pavilion disciples suffer from internal injuries any longer.
“Mid-Grade Hunyuan Bu Tian Dan is already quite good.”
Chen Huai'an took the four porcelain vials, and a fragrant aroma wafted up.
These weren’t celestial-grade pills, so they wouldn’t cause any heavenly phenomena.
But he was very satisfied; if he were to buy these, they would probably cost tens of millions each, even at the mortal grade.
“How effective are the Mid-Grade ones? Can they repair the dantian?”
“They can,” Dan Bai nodded. “Mortal-grade pills have a chance of failing to repair, but Mid-Grade ones generally succeed. Good and Superior grades have a chance to strengthen the dantian.
Absolute and celestial grades will definitely strengthen the dantian, but only a mother can refine the absolute grade…
As for celestial-grade, that’s a legendary pill. It requires not only the right refining skills and materials but also the right timing and circumstances.”
Dan Bai glanced at Chen Huai'an and couldn’t help but ask, “Senior, you must have given Miss Li Qingran a very high-quality Hunyuan Bu Tian Dan, right?”
She stared at the area three inches below Chen Huai'an’s navel, her eyes shimmering with light, and continued, “Yet, Senior’s dantian is surprisingly the lowest grade. Even so, you’ve still cultivated to the fifth realm of Dongxu. Your talent and comprehension are truly admirable!”
【Li Qingran Affection +30, Current ♡♥ 35】
A game prompt floated before him.
A shadow leaned against the window of the small room, clearly a little girl eavesdropping.
Chen Huai'an fell silent.
For a moment, he didn’t know whether Dan Bai was praising him or criticizing him.
“You can see the condition of the dantian?”
“I can.” Dan Bai blinked her bright eyes and said sincerely, “My mother and I were born with spiritual eyes, able to see information that even cultivators using special divine abilities cannot perceive… That’s precisely why my mother was captured by the Yaochi Sacred Land.”
Chen Huai'an narrowed his eyes.
He didn’t understand why Dan Bai, who had previously been wary of him, was now so open about everything.
“Aren’t you afraid I’ll use you?”
Upon hearing this, Dan Bai knelt on the ground, her voice resolute: “I absolutely do not believe that someone who prioritizes the best resources for their disciples would be like those fame-seeking people from Yaochi.
I implore you, Senior, to rescue my mother. My mother’s alchemy skills and spiritual eyes will surely help your Sword Pavilion rival the three great sacred lands!”
There was something Dan Bai hadn’t said.
She had seen Chen Huai'an teaching Li Qingran sword techniques under the moonlight, his attentiveness and warmth gradually merging with the image of a man from her memories—her father.
Her mother and her alchemy skills were both taught by her father.
If her father hadn’t gone missing in the Great Secret Realm, she would have been the daughter of the Alchemy Sect’s leader.
Fate can be cruel…
But no matter what, anyone who reminded her of her father could not be a bad person.
Dan Bai gazed at the figure in the dark robe before her, her heart sighing.
【Mother, please forgive your daughter’s willfulness just this once.】
【I’m taking a gamble!】
…

Chapter 267: I’m sorry, could you please describe your problem in detail?
Chen Huai'an felt that at this moment, Dan Bai had completely opened up her path.
This was the rhythm of following him.
To put it bluntly, wasn’t he the chosen one? The first person to fight cancer, with an electronic girlfriend game at his side, he could grow stronger just by spending money. Who in the Cangyun Realm could compare to his abnormality—he was even just an avatar at the moment.
Let’s not even mention his true self.
Dan Bai administered the Mid-Grade Hunyuan Bu Tian Dan to the four injured individuals, then fed them another type of pill. Without waiting for Chen Huai'an to ask, she explained, “The dantian of the Valley Master has only a hidden injury, so the auxiliary medicine is primarily for nourishment, with gentle properties that won’t harm his cultivation.
The three Sword Pavilion disciples have completely lost their dantian and need to have it rebuilt, so the auxiliary medicine is focused on stabilization, and the spiritual herbs added vary according to their different spiritual roots.
The auxiliary medicine for stabilization has a strong potency, and after the dantian is repaired, the cultivation of the three disciples will drop a bit, but that shouldn’t be a problem for them; they’ll quickly be able to rebuild.”
“I see. So, based on the condition of the injured, even if they all have dantian issues, the auxiliary medicine must be adjusted for absolute compatibility. This is true medical cultivation, a true alchemist!” Elder Liu admired, looking at Dan Bai with a strange expression, almost like he was looking at a granddaughter.
This was already the second granddaughter he wanted to acknowledge at his most helpless age, but unfortunately, both had too much talent, and he could only watch enviously.
