A ruthless bandit from the celestial realm, he began his cultivation journey after kidnapping the Em

A stunningly beautiful woman in a purple nightgown nestled in my arms, her fragrance wafting into my nostrils, stirring my heartstrings...

When Ye Chen looked down, his milky-white skin was faintly visible under the thin fabric.

The purple nightgown was quite charming; a few glances were enough to make one's heart flutter.

"Gurgle!"

He was completely mesmerized, his eyes practically glued to the screen...

"Senior brother..."

"I want you..."

A soft, sweet voice lingered in his ears, stirring Ye Chen's emotions.

My anger grew stronger and stronger, and I felt an urge to do something...

He lowered his head, trying to see the other person's face clearly. He felt she was beautiful, yet her features seemed blurry...

"Senior brother..."

The stunningly beautiful woman wrapped her arms around Ye Chen's neck and slowly leaned closer...

Her charming and alluring appearance is exceptionally seductive...

Her repeated calls drove Ye Chen to the brink of madness...

"Slut..."

"Watch how I, the Great King, teach you a lesson..."

Ye Chen shouted and suddenly opened his eyes...

The stunningly beautiful woman in his arms vanished without a trace, and all around was quiet.

He paused for a moment, then realized he was on his bed in a room that was shrouded in a gray haze, and the sky outside was still dark...

"Sigh..."

"Oh, it was just a dream..."

Ye Chen sighed regretfully, just as he was about to lie down and continue sleeping...

"Senior brother..."

Lin Ningxue's shouts could be heard from outside...

Ye Chen was stunned for a moment, a bitter look appearing on his face.

"So early?"

He was a little reluctant to get out of bed, but the thought that the collected morning dew could be refined into spiritual liquid instantly invigorated him...

"They're here..."

Ye Chen replied, quickly got out of bed, changed into a new pair of pants, and then hurried out of the room...

After washing up, he went straight to the cave next door. The gate was ajar, obviously left for him by Lin Ningxue.

As soon as I stepped into the courtyard, a rich fragrance wafted towards me...

"It smells so good..."

Ye Chen's eyes lit up, and he quickened his pace.

"Senior brother, dinner's ready..."

Lin Ningxue was setting out the dishes when she looked up and saw Ye Chen entering. She greeted him with a smile.

"good..."

"My junior sister's cooking skills are getting better and better..."

Ye Chen praised with a smile.

Meeting Ye Chen's gaze, Lin Ningxue said with a smile, "I'm glad you like it, Senior Brother. I'll make it for you every day from now on..."

The two sat down and quickly began to eat. They were rushing to the herb garden to collect morning dew before dawn, not daring to waste a moment, lest they miss the optimal time for collection...

Lin Ningxue was very curious about how Ye Chen used the morning dew to cultivate the Fire Spirit Grass.

After all, she had been watering the Fire Spirit Grass with morning dew every day. Even if she used all the morning dew to water a single Fire Spirit Grass, it wouldn't be possible to cultivate a mature Fire Spirit Grass from a seed in just two days...

If it were that easy, Fire Spirit Grass would have been everywhere long ago.

Surely my senior brother wouldn't lie to me about something like this?

What good would that do him?

Moreover, she did indeed obtain a genuine Grade 4 Fire Spirit Grass!

Anything can be fake, but the Fire Spirit Grass can't be fake...

"What are you thinking about? You seem so lost in thought..."

Ye Chen looked at Lin Ningxue, who was in a daze, and couldn't help but ask.

How could you be distracted by such delicious food? That's an insult to the food!

"what?"

"No...it's nothing."

"Senior brother, I'm full..."

Lin Ningxue snapped out of her daze, looked up at Ye Chen, hesitated, shook her head, and still didn't ask the question that was on her mind.

Whether it's true or false, it might involve her senior brother's secrets, so it's better for her not to know.

We'll know the truth in a few days if my senior brother can produce another Grade 4 Fire Spirit Grass...

"Let's go then..."

Ye Chen rubbed his bulging belly, feeling like he was about to burst, and said with a smile.

Full and energized after a good meal, he couldn't wait to collect the morning dew...

After all, collecting and refining morning dew is much easier than killing someone, and there's no need to worry about being wanted and punished by the sect.

"good..."

Lin Ningxue agreed, and the two got up and left the cave.

The sky was overcast and the mountain path was silent; not a soul could be seen...

Most disciples are still asleep at this time. Even if they get up early to cultivate, they will wait until dawn and will not get up this early.

Only disciples who also have to do odd jobs for the sect will get up before dawn.

As they approached the spirit herb garden, Ye Chen and Lin Ningxue began to see disciples steadily ascending the steps below the mountain...

The two successfully entered the herb garden using their identity tokens.

Upon reaching their assigned spirit field area, Ye Chen and Lin Ningxue eagerly took out their crystal bottles and began collecting morning dew from the fields...

This time, both of them moved much more lightly, feeling that every bit of hard work was worthwhile.

Working for a sect is completely different from working for yourself!

At the same pace, Ye Chen collected more morning dew than before. Before the sun even rose, he had collected a full bottle of morning dew, which he excitedly poured into his purple-gold gourd to refine. He then continued collecting more...

Before we knew it, dawn had broken...

Even as a ray of warm sunlight fell upon the spirit field, Ye Chen was still reluctant to stop, diligently collecting the essence without wasting a single drop...

Busy figures moved about in the spirit field...

An elder in charge of the spirit herb garden happened to pass by and saw this scene, nodding with satisfaction...

"Having such a diligent and hardworking disciple is a blessing for the Spirit Herb Garden..."

"If every disciple who comes to work could be like him, I'd have much less to worry about..."

Sun Tingshan stroked his graying beard, smiled, and left.

Before long, the morning dew evaporated completely under the sunlight.

Seeing this, Ye Chen finally gave up, stood up and stretched his limbs. Looking at the crystal bottle, which was almost half full of morning dew, he immediately felt much better...

"Should we be able to refine ten drops of spirit liquid now?"

"I wonder how much morning dew that girl collected today..."

Ye Chen murmured softly.

Looking up, I saw Lin Ningxue walking towards me. My gaze fell on the crystal bottle in her hand, filled to the brim with morning dew, sparkling and translucent...

"Senior brother, here you go..."

Lin Ningxue approached Ye Chen and handed him the crystal bottle. Then, she swiftly took out a brand new crystal bottle from her storage bag, also filled with morning dew...

"Senior brother, I have another bottle here!"

Ye Chen's eyes lit up as he looked at the two bottles of morning dew that Lin Ningxue handed him, and he unconsciously grinned...

"Good, good, good, junior sister, you're really fast..."

"I knew I hadn't misjudged you!"

He had assumed Lin Ningxue had only collected one bottle of morning dew, but it turned out she had collected more than him today...

Two bottles of morning dew mean that at least twelve drops of spiritual liquid can be refined from them...
