When Qi Boyang heard about Qi Boyue's purpose for coming, he was a little confused.

Qi Boyang didn't make any further progress last night, so naturally he couldn't answer Qi Boyue's question.

Qi Boyue was shocked: "What? You've already formed a Daoist couple contract, and you're still... you know?"

Qi Boyang was a man of few desires, with only alchemy on his mind.

Seeing his hopeless state, Qi Boyue felt a surge of exasperation and threw a stack of documents at him. "We're brothers, so I won't mince words. Take these documents and study them. Once you've finished learning, I guarantee your sister-in-law won't want to leave you!"

Qi Boyue boasted without batting an eye, making anyone who didn't know him think he was a seasoned veteran.

Qi Boyang's expression shifted, and he carefully put the book away, saying, "I will study hard."

Qi Boyue patted him on the shoulder, feeling that Qi Boyang wasn't beyond redemption. Qi Boyang took his books to study, and Qi Boyue, having no one to talk to, had to go back.

Ruqing noticed that Qi Boyang, who always loved to refine pills in the alchemy room, suddenly stopped going out.

Qi Boyang was mainly studying the books that Qi Boyue had given him.

He's been famous for so many years, so of course he knows what the illustrations in the book are. This is the legendary Chinese dual cultivation technique. Since it's a technique, it should be treated with a serious and rigorous attitude.

Seeing that his Daoist partner hadn't shown any reaction for the past few days, Ruqing leaned against the door to look at the alchemy room and asked curiously, "Dabao, what are you looking at?"

Seeing Qi Boyang's serious expression, he assumed he was researching some kind of alchemy technique.

Qi Boyang's answer was also very serious: "I am researching martial arts techniques, but many of them do not seem to be suitable for my physique. Perhaps I can create a set of martial arts techniques that are suitable for us."

Ruqing looked at Qi Boyang with some admiration and praised, "You even created your own cultivation technique? That's really amazing."

Qi Boyang flipped through the book in his hand and nodded to Ruqing: "I will need your cooperation at that time. Although the theoretical knowledge can be modified, the specific modifications will still need to be made while practicing and cultivating."

Ru Qing didn't think too much about it, assuming that Qi Boyang wanted her to cultivate the technique he created. So she pledged her loyalty, saying, "Don't worry, I will definitely help you test the effects of the technique." She thought to herself that her body had strong regenerative abilities, so even if something went wrong with the technique, she shouldn't die. Once she successfully cultivated it, Qi Boyang could also cultivate it.

Moreover, the Daoist couple contract establishes a connection between the two, meaning that if one dies, the other will not benefit either. Theoretically speaking, the other would never harm one.

After obtaining Ruqing's permission, Qi Boyang began to write a cultivation technique, combining the advantages of some dual cultivation techniques to make the divine power flow more smoothly.

Qi Boyang is also dedicated to researching dual cultivation techniques.

Qi Boyue was thinking about how to get Hu Ren to come to his senses and fall into his arms as soon as possible. He hadn't petted a fox's fur for a long time, and he felt restless every time he saw Hu Ren's fox tail.

He had studied many dual cultivation techniques during this period and believed that he was now able to take good care of his partner when practicing them.

Qi Boyue served up the dishes he had personally cooked, feigning a pitiful expression, and said, "Fox, look, all my brothers have become Daoist partners. When are we going to get things done?"

Fox Ren paused for a moment. A considerable amount of time had indeed passed. In truth, he was not quite used to not being groomed by Erbao. So, he said somewhat pretentiously, "Considering that you haven't gone looking for other foxes during this time, I'll believe that you are truly sincere."

"That's for sure. Shouldn't this Daoist partnership contract be finalized?" Qi Boyue asked, seizing the opportunity.

Fox Ren said, "Then go find your father tomorrow."

Qi Boyue said, "What do we need to see my father for? It's just to form a Daoist couple contract, right? Da Bao still has the things he prepared last time. Let's get it done first, and then we can go see my father tomorrow and tell him."

Hu Ren hesitated for a moment. In fact, he was not sure whether the Seventh Prince would allow Er Bao to sign a Daoist partner contract with him. After all, his Daoist partner was different from that of Da Bao and San Bao. At first, Er Bao was just a spirit pet.

Qi Boyue began making preparations before he could even agree.

For someone who draws talismans, drawing a Daoist partner contract is not difficult at all. He immediately signed the contract with Hu Ren after finishing it.

Both the human and the fox breathed a sigh of relief.

Qi Boyue grabbed the things and immediately picked up Hu Ren, giving him a kiss on his fox ear: "I've forgotten how it felt last time, let's try it again today."

Hu Ren felt a little guilty. Actually, nothing had happened between them last time. It was just that Er Bao was easy to coax. Without him saying a word, Er Bao took the blame.

It's only because Erbao is so naive that he wouldn't have been fooled by so many women.

But from now on, he'll be the only fox who can fool this person.

"I've researched all sorts of dual cultivation techniques, so this time I definitely won't make you suffer," Qi Boyue continued rambling on.

Hu Ren said impatiently, "Hurry up and come inside!"

Qi Boyue knew he had agreed, and immediately became happy again. She opened and closed the door, setting up an array to isolate any possible outside spying...

The next day, Qi Boyue and Hu Ren went to find Qi Zhiheng and told him that they had become Daoist partners.

Qi Zhiheng was slightly surprised. He hadn't expected that the master and pet would actually become Daoist partners. He waved his hand and said, "Since you've already become Daoist partners, what's the point of talking about this?"

Qi Boyue said, "Don't we need to announce this to the public? Could you help me with that?"

Qi Zhiheng felt it was a bit troublesome, and after thinking for a moment, he said, "Anyway, your older brother hasn't invited anyone to his banquet yet, so why don't you two just have it together?"

Yang Yitian wholeheartedly agreed: "If we calculate it this way, we'll save some money!"

Qi Zhiheng: "..."

Qi Boyue and Hu Ren didn't really have any objections.

Thus, the celebration for the four Daoist couples was set. Qi Zhiheng was glad that he hadn't sent out the invitations yet, because his eldest son was in seclusion and he didn't know what he was researching, so he hadn't been able to set a specific date.

Contrary to Qi Zhiheng's expectations, Qi Boyang was not researching anything serious. After tinkering for a while, he finally managed to develop a new dual cultivation technique.

Qi Boyang went to find Ruqing immediately, intending to put this technique into practice. Ruqing didn't know what he wanted to do when he pulled her into the room.

Qi Boyang said solemnly, "The cultivation method I researched is complete, and we can start practicing it now. Practice with me for a bit, and I'll see where adjustments are needed."

Seeing his serious expression, Ruqing couldn't help but feel a little nervous.

Qi Boyang placed a cultivation manual in Ruqing's hands: "This is the new cultivation manual I've been researching. Memorize the contents first, and then we'll begin."

Ruqing nodded repeatedly and accepted the book that Qi Boyang handed over.

As soon as the fight began, a picture of the two men came into view.

Upon seeing what the person in the painting was doing, Ruqing's face flushed red, but he quickly realized, "Boyang, you seem to have taken the wrong one."

Ru Qing had all sorts of guesses in his mind. Since he and Qi Boyang became Daoist partners, they had never had any contact in that respect, not even a kiss.

He wondered if Qi Boyang was trying to hint at something by giving him this book.

Qi Boyang glanced at the open page and his expression shifted slightly: "I didn't give you the wrong book, this is it."

"Didn't you say it was a cultivation technique?" Ruqing looked at it, but wasn't this just a pornographic book?

Qi Boyang said, "You didn't give me the wrong book, this is it. Dual cultivation techniques are still techniques."

Ruqing blushed again: "You've been in seclusion for so long just to research dual cultivation techniques?"

Qi Boyang pressed the dual cultivation technique into Ruqing's arms: "Take a look, and we'll try it after you've finished reading. Your cultivation level is too low; dual cultivation will help improve your cultivation."

The divine herbs at the Immortal Emperor level are already capable of producing pills with such potent effects. If one's cultivation level were to rise another level, the medicinal effects would undoubtedly be even better.

Ruqing knew that in dual cultivation, the one with higher cultivation level usually had a greater effect on the one with lower cultivation level, which moved Ruqing deeply.

He quickly checked the dual cultivation technique and, blushing, memorized all the steps.

Two hours later, Ruqing said, "I've finished reading."

Upon hearing this, Qi Boyang immediately said, "Then let's try the first level first." He then began to undress, taking off Ruqing's clothes as well, and started cultivating according to the order in the manual...

This was the first time Qi Boyang had experienced such an electric shock-like sensation, and a chill ran down his spine. Ru Qing's face flushed slightly; in her excitement, her hands transformed into tree roots, binding her and Qi Boyang together…

Qi Boyang and Ruqing were locked in the room for three days.

Three days later, the door opened, and Qi Boyang and Ru Qing came out.

Qi Boyang's expression remained serious and solemn, while Ru Qing's entire demeanor seemed to have changed, and her cultivation level had also improved significantly.

After that, in addition to alchemy and cultivation, Qi Boyang added another hobby to his list: dual cultivation.

They would pull people out and close the door almost every few days, and each time the door would stay closed for three to five days before reopening.

Fortunately, Ruqing is a miraculous herb with extremely strong healing abilities.

Qi Boyang wouldn't be afraid either, since he was skilled in alchemy and had plenty of elixirs to nourish the body.

They spent almost a month together on and off before finally getting out.

Finally, they remembered their covenant ceremony that hadn't been held yet.

When Qi Boyang suddenly learned that Qi Boyue and his Daoist partner were going to hold a covenant celebration with him and his husband, he was a little confused: "When did you get a Daoist partner?"

Qi Boyue pulled Hu Ren to her side and said, "Hu Ren is it."

Qi Boyang didn't say much about this matter, but it wasn't entirely unexpected that Qi Boyue would form a Daoist partnership with Hu Ren.

Before long, Qi Zhiheng's invitations were sent out, and everyone learned that the three sons of the Emperor of the Guiyi Divine Realm had all found their Daoist partners, which greatly disappointed those who had been somewhat eager to participate. The Emperor's sons—that was quite an attractive proposition.

On the day of the celebration, many people still jokingly talked about kidnapping the bride.

These were mostly jokes, of course. The celebration started very smoothly and ended without any surprises or disturbances.
