Through a transmigration, An Zhengzheng, a young lady from a prestigious business family, is reborn as the young lady of a cultivation clan. In this world where women cannot achieve the Dao through...
Today marks the first day that the new disciples of the Hehuan Sect have emerged from their seclusion after a period of closed-door cultivation.
They stayed in the magic array for three whole months. During those three months, they could only eat one spiritual fruit a day and had to practice their cultivation techniques.
This is to prevent the body from changing shape.
A slender and graceful figure, as thin as a willow swaying in the breeze, is what makes a person lovable.
This is the first lesson in the Hehuan Sect.
There are still a series of basic procedures to work on in the future, such as breast enhancement, skin rejuvenation, hair removal, and face slimming.
Once you reach the Foundation Establishment stage, you can practice skills such as having a soft voice, graceful dancing, embroidery, cooking, playing musical instruments, calligraphy, painting, and enjoying intimate moments with your partner.
When you reach the Golden Elixir stage, you should start learning how to manage a household, serve your parents-in-law, respect your husband and love your children, teach your children, and recover from childbirth.
Reaching the Nascent Soul stage... oh, no disciples of the Joyful Union Sect have reached the Nascent Soul stage. After all, by the time they reach the Nascent Soul stage, they're all quite old, and they might not be able to get married.
"How strange, why are all the senior sisters holding a booklet?"
When An Qinghuan followed the main group out of the magic array, her companions were all discussing it.
She looked closely and saw that the cover of the booklet read "One Hundred Outstanding Women".
She was startled. Could this be a new cultivation technique?
An Qinghuan stopped a passing senior sister: "Senior sister, may I ask what that is in your hand?"
The senior sister who was passing by laughed: "This is a new magazine from Bai Nu Ge. This month's tutorial is about matching makeup for different skin tones."
"The Pavilion of a Hundred Women?"
"Yeah, you didn't know? Lots of people went to buy it. I heard that the big boss behind it is this year's top scorer in the joint entrance exam, An Zhengzheng from the Ruthless Path."
Everyone has a tendency to admire the strong. As the center of the conversation, An Zhengzheng made no attempt to hide her identity and did not want to waste her influence.
An Qinghuan immediately pictured An Zhengzheng kneeling in the ancestral hall.
"I used to practice the Snow Skin Technique, and I almost swallowed the White Skin Herb, which had side effects!" The senior sister flipped through the booklet for An Qinghuan to see. "Now I know that I actually have yellow skin type number two."
Clicking on the words "Huang Erpi" brings up an image in the booklet that is very similar to the skin color of this senior sister.
An Qinghuan said, "Then... then Senior Sister also needs to practice the Snow Skin Technique!"
Does it matter what color it is? As long as you are a disciple of the Hehuan Sect, you will eventually cultivate to be as white as snow.
The senior sister smiled again: "Junior sister, you can go and take a look at the Hundred Women Pavilion when you have time."
...
An Zhengzheng came out of the library. She had come to return the books. She had practiced all the moves countless times, day and night.
"Sister, so many people are asking about the Hundred Women's Pavilion!"
More than a month has passed since the competition at the Hundred Women's Pavilion, and the story of the Hundred Women's Pavilion is still being told throughout the martial arts world.
An Yirou was overjoyed. Her father told her that the magazine her sister had asked to be printed had sold a lot of money in its second issue.
She asked An Zhengzheng, "Sister, how much money did we make?"
Because her older sister said that the family business would be hers after she took over, An Yirou didn't distinguish between them.
An Zhengzheng was still flipping through the books that had just been taken out of the book hall.
"We didn't make any money; in fact, we lost 30,000 low-grade spirit stones." She remained calm. "Making the booklet with special paper costs a lot of money, and it also has a photo effect, so the price is even higher... The cost is not low, so it's normal to lose money. However... we don't make money by selling books."
An Yirou asked, still a little confused, "But sister, what if we can't earn it back later?"
An Zhengzheng smiled: "No."
An Zhengzheng, who came from a business background in her previous life, was taught by her family from a young age that in order to establish a family business, three things must be guaranteed.
First, we must consider the needs of our customers and solve their problems. Second, no matter which industry we expand into, the quality must be up to standard, and we cannot cut corners. Third, we must conduct business with integrity, and if we prosper, we will benefit the world.
The cultivation world is a magical place. It transcends the mortal world, yet because people gather there, it cannot escape the mortal world.
An Zhengzheng will use all her observations over the years.
"You will be the one to inherit the family business in the future. You must learn the Fu Sect's techniques and be among the top in the assessments... You also need to know a little about business."
An Zhengzheng put the book away, flew on his sword, and took An Yirou to the Medicine Sect.
Zhang Guo'er of the Medicine Sect had been waiting for a long time.
“These are the medicinal powders you asked for before.” Zhang Guo’er handed the bag of treasures to An Zhengzheng. “I collected them all. These medicinal powders are not difficult to obtain, so I can buy a lot of them.”
An Zhengzheng paid her with spirit stones.
“From now on, Yi Rou will come over every month to hand over the reins to you.” An Zhengzheng was consciously cultivating An Yi Rou’s business acumen.
After all, one can't really be a prostitute who only does cultivation and play.
Zhang Guo'er nodded. An Zhengzheng had approached her earlier, asking if she could create a basic formula for women's cosmetics.
That's too easy! All they need to do is get the cultivation techniques and learn them; the books from the Siyue Sect are publicly available.
These cosmetics are good for beauty and health, and they are not expensive. Generally, girls from other sects, except for those who practice medicine, will choose to buy them from the shops.
An Zhengzheng said goodbye to Zhang Guoer and walked back with An Yirou.
"Although the Hundred Women Pavilion is under my name, it is currently being run by my father. We cannot abandon our cultivation; you should gradually get the hang of it too."
"There will be seven days of free time at the end of this month. Come with me to collect some herbs. If possible, we'll need to plant some more."
So-called "coloring herbs" are generally used in the cultivation world for dyeing. They are needed when selling clothes and magical artifacts, and various colors can be mixed.
“Okay, I’ll do whatever you say, sister.” An Yirou nodded.
She wasn't one to calm down and cultivate, and she felt hopeless about becoming a god. However, she was quite interested in her sister's suggestion to inherit the family business!
However, her sister said that the cultivation of the Siyue Sect still had to be done, at least to ensure self-preservation, so she gritted her teeth and endured the hardship.
The two sisters discussed how to run the Hundred Women Pavilion.
At that moment, someone blocked their way.
"Zhou Xu?"
An Zhengzheng was surprised to see him. She hadn't seen him since she saw him in the audience that day.
Zhou Xu pursed his lips, his gaze towards An Zhengzheng was dark and unfathomable, and when he spoke again, his voice was dry: "I have something to tell you."
An Zhengzheng raised an eyebrow: "...You want to fight again?"
She couldn't figure out why he wanted to see her.
Zhou Xu shook his head, and asked in a somewhat heavy tone, "You want to go into business? You're not going to cultivate anymore?"
"..." An Zhengzheng was puzzled, "Where did you hear that from?"
“The Hundred Women’s Pavilion,” Zhou Xu said bluntly.
An Zhengzheng looked up at him.
Zhou Xu added, "If you get distracted by opening the shop, it might affect your cultivation."
An Zhengzheng is one of the few adversaries he has encountered, and he doesn't want her to fall into depravity too quickly.
An Zhengzheng immediately laughed: "No way."
From the age of eight, she wrote an article every month until she was twelve. She repeatedly revised and selected the best of each article, which contained the essence of all her thoughts from her past and present lives.
The content of the magazines currently being published is all excerpted from that.
Her ambition could not be suppressed from the moment she arrived in the world of cultivation.
Zhou Xu, somewhat exasperated, coldly said, "You're ruining yourself."
Why distract yourself from business when you have a much stronger competitor?!
"Given the 100% success rate of the Ruthless Path in achieving godhood, why are you so short-sighted!"
"Living a mundane life like an ordinary person in the cultivation world is something only those without talent and with no hope of cultivating immortality would do. An Zhengzheng, you shouldn't be like this!"
Zhou Xu didn't like An Zhengzheng's vulgarity.
