But the reality is that he doesn't want to be the first to stand out. The situation in the holy land is complicated. Before he has strong enough strength, it may not be a good thing to expose his qualifications.
The housekeeper is over a hundred years old this year, and her qualifications are not very outstanding.
In her early years, as a cultivator with three spiritual roots, she relied on her own efforts to break through to the Nascent Soul stage, but her potential was almost exhausted.
Luo Xueqing was less than half her age, yet her realm was surprisingly close to hers. This was naturally because Luo had an innate sword body, a physique suitable for sword cultivation.
However, she only had the wood spiritual root, which was the least attacking of the five elements. Such qualifications were just right for her to reach the fourth or fifth grade of Yuan Shen.
The divine artifacts provided by the Holy Land for peak Nascent Soul cultivators were generally only of the fourth or fifth rank. If one desired a higher quality artifact, one could seek opportunities on their own.
"I might have some of the materials needed here," Zhao Kangping said, turning around.
When Luo Xueqing killed the Saint of Yuhua, she obtained a storage ring from him, which contained a spiritual item for breaking through to the God Transformation stage. It should have been prepared by the Saint for himself, but now they have gotten a bargain.
Hmm? You said these things are not with Luo Xueqing?
This is a bit too formal. He and his beloved apprentice are all family, so what's the difference between you and me?
The housekeeper felt a little embarrassed. She felt that he had already given her a lot. If she troubled him again, she would feel guilty.
"No need, I'll collect it myself." Dongfang Jingrou said stubbornly.
Hearing this, Zhao Kangping turned around and slapped her on the soft part of her back, causing a burst of white waves.
"It seems that you don't accept your husband's kindness." He smiled slightly jokingly.
Zhao Kangping didn't like to hear such awkward words.
What he hated most was that his woman acted distantly towards him.
Our former Master was an example of this.
Maybe she was thinking about him, but she didn't treat him as her own, which made Zhao feel very uncomfortable.
Feeling the pain, the housekeeper looked aggrieved and punched his chest a few times with her little fists: "You are so annoying. I just don't want to trouble you. Why do you have to make it so clear?"
"It's not a big deal. You still have work to do for me. It will take ages for you to gather the necessary materials."
In the future, the housekeeper will not only have to assist him in managing the affairs of the city, but also take care of matters in the city lord's mansion. She may also have to sleep with him at night. How can she have the time to collect materials?
"Okay, fine. I'll make you a list later."
"Is there a lot of stuff?"
"It's not too much, but it's not too little either. Some of the materials still need special processing, so it's better for me to write them down."
The housekeeper was finally persuaded, and Zhao Kangping finally released his hands that were twisting her buttocks.
"Master, Master, I have reached the peak of the Golden Core stage. I feel like I am almost ready to form a baby." Zhao Mengyao also joined in the fun at this time.
However, Zhao Kangping's response was indifferent: "Oh, that's good."
"Master, aren't you excited at all?"
"You've only just achieved the Nascent Soul stage. You have the potential to do even better. Do you want to hear my flattery? That's not good. Now is not the time for you to be complacent. Don't you see how many years it's been since your Senior Sister achieved the Nascent Soul stage, and she's almost at the stage of becoming a Spiritual Being?"
"Woo woo woo, you're bullying me. I don't want to practice so slowly. The technique I chose for you before is not suitable for me. I get half the result with twice the effort when practicing."
"Stop pretending. You haven't shed a single tear, yet you're pretending to cry. Okay, okay, you're not bad at all. Let's try to have a baby before the end of the year."
Zhao Kangping turned around again, pulled his little disciple over, and kissed her on the forehead.
Then they got up and dressed.
Before leaving the room, Zhao Kangping thought of something else. He said to the women, "When you were in the Heavenly Book World, how far did you go in learning?"
Because the girl played by the senior sister has no intention of learning at all, and only cares about rushing to the teacher. I wonder if the other girls will be affected by her influence.
Luo Xueqing thought for a moment and said, "I can probably identify 163 common medicinal herbs. I also have a pretty good idea of what kind of elixirs they are suitable for, and how to cultivate them."
"However, these 163 kinds of spiritual herbs are all low-level medicinal materials. The highest is only level three, which is equivalent to the materials used to refine the elixirs used by Jindan stage cultivators. As for some of the less popular or rare spiritual herbs, I don't recognize them yet."
One hundred and sixty-three kinds may sound like a lot, but in fact, compared with the vast variety of spiritual medicines in the world of immortal cultivation, it is just a drop in the bucket and not worth mentioning.
But when Zhao Kangping heard this, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly and he felt relieved.
Because this proves that the world of heavenly books can indeed transform knowledge into memories and keep them in the minds of girls.
Zhao Kangping looked at Zhao Mengyao again.
The young disciple avoided his gaze and didn't dare to meet his gaze, obviously feeling guilty.
Because she was close to her senior sister Mu Xiaowan in the Heavenly Book story, she was also greatly influenced by her. She spent most of her time slacking off, so she had no time to improve her alchemy skills.
"Three kinds. I have mastered the refining of three kinds of elixirs." The little disciple was nervous, but still said it with a brave face.
Unfortunately, all three were elixirs for cultivators in the Qi training stage, and she didn't dare to say that her success rate was only 30%. If her master knew about this, she would probably get a good beating.
"Three kinds, that's not bad." Zhao Kangping didn't have high expectations for Zhao Mengyao.
He only thought that his disciple had a talent for alchemy, but this talent was not high.
Many alchemy apprentices, in the first few years of refining pills, only refine some basic pills, or are even only responsible for refining one type of pill.
It's already very good to be able to refine three kinds of pills.
Zhao Kangping looked at Dongfang Jingrou again. She was smiling and seemed very confident.
"The technique I'm practicing is divided into seven parts, corresponding to the Qi training stage to the fusion stage. I've reached the foundation-building stage."
"Hmm? Can't you just practice the techniques of the Nascent Soul stage directly?"
"You're overthinking this. This set of exercises must be practiced from the basics, and you can't skip ahead. Also, in this dream, I only reached the Foundation Establishment Stage. Even if I wanted to skip to the Nascent Soul Stage, I couldn't do it."
"Alright, you've been able to cultivate this technique to the fusion stage, so you must be very powerful."
"..."
There should be a crying cat head.jpg here.
Dongfang Jingrou felt a little embarrassed. She organized her words carefully and said, "My technique is called the Spring Birth of All Things. Its greatest function is to increase the lifespan of the practitioner. It also improves my own ability to recover from injuries. Furthermore, this technique can be used to heal the injuries of others."
The Spring Birth of All Things Technique can allow her to have a longer lifespan than cultivators at the same level, and a longer lifespan means she has more time to practice.
Then she really wanted to change her job and become a wet nurse.
"Why don't you choose a technique for killing?"
"I'm no longer Suzaku. Besides, I've switched to civilian work, so I don't have to be on the front lines like before."
What she said made a lot of sense, and Mr. Zhao was speechless for a moment.
……
Most of the guests who stayed overnight left before Zhao Kangping came out.
However, some of them waited until Zhao Kangping personally saw them off.
But some people stayed, including several business tycoons from the Qianshang Alliance, and Sun Hezhou, the leader of Penglai Sword Pavilion, also stayed.
When he came, the Pavilion Master could not be said to be full of energy, but his eyes were bright.
However, when he saw him again this time, Sun Hezhou's eyes were dull, as if he had lost his soul.
There was no one else around him, probably he was waiting for someone named Zhao.
Yesterday, he and Zhao Kangping arranged for their apprentices to compete. He should stay in Chuanliu City for a few more days.
But looking at his current mental state, I don’t know whether the previous agreement is still valid.
"Brother Sun, are you waiting for me?" Zhao Kangping took the initiative to step forward and greet him.
Pavilion Master Sun came to his senses when he heard his voice.
He was still a little listless though.
He gave Zhao Kangping the feeling that he had aged ten years overnight.
"Well, Brother Zhao, I will stay in Chuanliu City for three days at most. Please try to arrange the competition between the disciples as early as possible."
"Okay, I understand. I'll tell Xueqing."
After saying this, Sun Hezhou didn't respond, but just nodded silently, then turned and left.
Zhao Kangping watched the Pavilion Master go away.
To his surprise, not long after Pavilion Master Sun walked away, a woman suddenly appeared from the side of the road.
She hugged Sun Hezhou's arm in a very intimate manner. She didn't care about the public watching and even leaned her head on Sun Hezhou's shoulder.
However, that woman was not Sun Hezhou's wife.
Everyone could see that the woman was very close to Pavilion Master Sun, but Sun Hezhou seemed a little frightened. After noticing it was her, he immediately took the woman and fled away.
Chapter 357: Three Things a New Official Does When He Takes Office
Zhao Kangping and others were about to leave the flying boat when they were stopped by a petite figure behind them.
"Senior Brother Zhao." The person who spoke was Xun Qianran, the master of the Medicine King Hall.
She also stayed on the flying boat last night. In fact, this place is so close to the Holy Land, she could definitely go back first.
But because I thought the experience of living on a flying boat was novel, I wanted to give it a try.
"What's the matter?" Zhao Kangping felt that something bad was probably going to happen as soon as he saw this quirky little girl.
His first thought was that she had sat at the children's table at dinner yesterday.
There were many small families attending the dinner, and many of them brought their children with them.
When Zhao Kangping was toasting, he saw that she was snatching food from some children, so he said a few words to her for this.
As a result, the little girl pretended not to know him and started crying, making the people at the nearby tables think that he, the city lord, was bullying a little girl.
She probably didn't come to me now to apologize for what happened yesterday.
"Uncle Xun."
"Palace Master Xun."
The disciples following Zhao Kangping and Dongfang Jingrou greeted her.
Xun Qianran also responded to them politely.
Then she pulled Zhao Kangping aside and said in a low voice, "Brother, have you taken the pills I gave you yesterday?"
It would have been fine if she hadn't mentioned this. After she said that, Zhao Kangping wanted to complain, but he still tried to speak in a calm tone: "No, I didn't take it. I'm fine. Didn't I tell you before that I don't need this kind of pills anymore?"
Zhao Kangping believed that his fighting ability was amazing and that ordinary women would not be his match.
Except for the senior sister, even if all the other girls were combined, they would all be bullied by him until they cried and begged for mercy.
He needs to take aphrodisiacs to find confidence? Just kidding.
Mr. Zhao had previously only thought that it was a side effect of using that wish-making ability and had temporarily forced himself to become a sage for a while.
It's really disrespectful for the little Loli to make a fuss about this.
This is from the ancient almanac so long ago.
"Brother, most men won't admit that they are not good enough. I understand." She winked playfully.
You know a der.
It seems that she doesn't believe my previous explanations.
If she hadn't looked so ugly, Mr. Zhao would have let her experience his puff-making skills.
"You misunderstood. I am fine and do not need any medicine to help me."
"Yes, yes, but do you really know the effect of that pill?"
"Hmm? Didn't Junior Sister Xun say it was an aphrodisiac?"
"Yes and no. I know that Senior Brother has the Pure Yang Saint Body, and this elixir also contains some materials that are beneficial to the cultivation of the Pure Yang Saint Body."
After these words were spoken, Zhao Kangping fell silent.
After cultivating the second pure Yang energy in his body, he had a small goal of working towards the advanced physique of Nine Yang Divine Body.
If it is beneficial to the cultivation of Pure Yang Holy Body, then will it help him advance to the Nine Yang Divine Body?
Thinking of this, Zhao Kangping's attitude became much kinder: "It seems that I have wronged my junior sister."
"Hehe, I think Senior Brother is really amazing. It's bad enough that he messed with a woman like Senior Sister who has a seductive body. He even didn't let his own disciples and Steward Dongfang go."
