After being jilted by the saintess at the beginning, why is she crying?

Upon hearing this, Ye Fan was furious!

This child must not be allowed to live!

This incredible luck is practically Ye Fan's nemesis!

He snorted coldly, transformed into a streak of light, and flew directly back to the Holy Son's Palace.

Upon entering the hall, he took out a jade slip, immersed his consciousness in it, and quickly inscribed a few lines of text.

Immediately, the jade figure transformed into a streak of light and flew towards the depths of the sect.

Lin Fengmian, this Holy Son will make sure you die without a burial place!

……

at the same time.

Inside the jade pendant's space.

After an unknown amount of time, Lin Fengmian finally opened his eyes.

His eyes were clear and bright.

He slowly exhaled a breath of stale air, a smile playing on his lips.

"Phew—this Dao of alchemy is really hard to learn."

He stood up, stretched, and his bones cracked and popped.

"Even with the willow tree's help, it still took this long. But at least I've learned how."

Next, I'll buy a pill-making furnace, practice my skills, and then—

Refine the Foundation Establishment Pill!

Thinking that he was about to establish his foundation, Lin Fengmian felt a surge of anticipation.

……

a few days later.

The flying boat made no trouble along the way and finally returned to the Hehuan Sect.

Lin Fengmian followed the others off the flying boat. As soon as he stepped onto the mountain gate, he saw two figures standing outside the crowd.

A woman in flowing purple robes, with a graceful figure and a hint of arrogance and anticipation in her eyes.

It was Nangong Li.

Beside her stood a white figure.

She was elegant and aloof, with stunningly beautiful features, and her beautiful eyes were looking at him.

It was Chu Qingyi.

Lin Fengmian felt a warmth in his heart when he saw the two of them.

I've missed them quite a bit since I last saw them.

Of course, not that kind of thinking.

After all, he had been drained of energy by that mysterious woman in the secret realm for three days, so he wasn't in such a hurry to engage in dual cultivation.

Moreover, he was preparing to establish his foundation, so he needed to preserve his pure Yang essence carefully and not waste it carelessly.

Lin Fengmian disembarked from the flying boat and, amidst the envious and jealous gazes of the surrounding disciples, leaped directly onto Nangong Li's flying sword.

Although he can now fly on a sword, but—

Flying with beautiful women, isn't that great?

When Nangong Li saw that he had drawn his sword the moment he saw him, a smug smile immediately appeared on his lips.

She glanced at Chu Qingyi sideways, her eyes clearly showing off.

Chu Qingyi felt a pang of sadness, but she glared back defiantly.

On what grounds?

In what way am I inferior to this wicked woman!

Nangong Li withdrew her gaze and looked at Lin Fengmian in front of her, her voice so soft it could drip water:

"My lord, how did the secret realm go? Did you miss me?"

Her eyes sparkled, and she leaned close to his ear, her breath sweet as orchids:

"Wait a minute... I can give you one chance~"

Upon hearing this, Lin Fengmian's heart fluttered slightly.

But he quickly regained his composure and coughed lightly:

"It went smoothly; I brought back quite a few herbs. I'll share some with you later."

He paused, then looked at Chu Qingyi:

"Qingyi, come along too."

Upon hearing this, Chu Qingyi's eyes immediately lit up.

He...he asked me to come along?

Nangong Li was unhappy.

She stomped her foot, her little foot lightly tapping the flying sword, causing it to tremble.

Lin Fengmian quickly reached out and hugged her waist to steady her.

"Li'er, don't be angry."

He whispered in her ear, his warm breath brushing against her earlobe.

"I have something to attend to, so the dual cultivation will have to wait. I really brought back a lot of good stuff this time; just take whatever you like later."

He didn't like to make promises he couldn't keep, so he didn't mention his preparations for foundation building.

Nangong Li then let out a soft hum, barely accepting the situation.

The three quickly returned to Qingyue Peak and entered the cave.

Chu Qingyi followed her in.

The two of them didn't actually care how many spiritual herbs Lin Fengmian could produce.

After all, how much can one person gather in a secret realm?

But the fact that he was willing to share with them was enough to warm their hearts.

Then, to the astonishment of the two women, Lin Fengmian began taking out the medicinal herbs—

One plant, two plants, three plants...

Ten plants, twenty plants, thirty plants...

Soon, the entire table was piled high with spiritual energy and the aroma of medicine filled the air!

Purple-leaf Ganoderma lucidum, century-old Polygonum multiflorum, ambergris, seven-star flower, mystic ice grass, fire Ganoderma lucidum... a dazzling array of precious medicinal herbs were on display.

The grades range from first to second rank, and there are even a few third-rank spiritual herbs that emit a faint spiritual light!

The two women's eyes widened and their mouths agape.

They never imagined that Lin Fengmian had gathered so many medicinal herbs!

You have to understand, if someone enters a secret realm and manages to gather a dozen or so spiritual herbs, that's already considered a very good harvest. But this pile in front of us must have at least a hundred!

And the quality is so good!

Nangong Li stared blankly at the pile of spiritual herbs, and it took him a long time to find his voice:

"Husband... have you emptied out all the medicinal herbs from the secret realm?"

Chu Qingyi was also filled with disbelief, her beautiful eyes wide open as she looked at the spiritual medicine and then at Lin Fengmian, as if she were looking at a monster.

Lin Fengmian chuckled inwardly.

If they knew that this was only a small part of what they had taken out, and that the real "big part" was hidden in the jade pendant's space, they would probably faint on the spot.

But he didn't intend to explain; he just smiled and started sorting.

"Here, Li'er, this is yours."

He pushed a pile of medicinal herbs in front of her.

"Qingyi, this is yours."

Then he pushed another pile to Chu Qingyi.

The two piles of medicinal herbs were roughly the same in quantity and quality, and were divided very fairly.

Lin Fengmian felt that the two women had always treated him well, so he was very willing to give them these herbs.

He said with a grin:

One serving per person, they've all been divided, so don't grab them!

Looking at the pile of spiritual herbs in front of him, and then at Lin Fengmian's smiling face, Nangong Li felt a warm current welling up in his heart.

Although she came from the Nangong family and had no shortage of spirit stones, this sentiment was more precious than anything else.

Chu Qingyi's eyes were slightly red.

She had thought that all the stupid things she had done before...

It would make Lin Fengmian resent her. But unexpectedly, he was still willing to be so kind to her…

The two women then smiled at Lin Fengmian, their smiles as beautiful as a hundred flowers in bloom.

They reached out and carefully put away the medicinal herbs, then looked up at Lin Fengmian.

That gaze, full of affection and tenderness, seemed to melt one's heart.

Lin Fengmian felt a tightness in his lower body as they stared at him, and alarm bells went off in his mind!

not good!

He knew that look in her eyes all too well!

This is how Nangong Li looks at him whenever he wants!

Now, there are two!

He quickly coughed lightly and said seriously:

"Li'er, Qingyi, you two stay here and count and organize them. I have some things to take care of."

After saying that, he turned around and left the cave without looking back.

Behind him, the soft, silvery laughter of two women rang out.

……

After leaving the cave, Lin Fengmian breathed a long sigh of relief.

If we stay any longer, not only will we lose control, but the two women will lose control first.

He decided to go away and hide for two days.

It's not too late to come back after their enthusiasm has died down.
