114 Finally, again

"Sister, the clothes are so pretty! But what's underneath? Hmm, I think mine looks different. Sister Wanqing too."

Rou Rou couldn't sleep and started chatting with Wei Qinghui. Perhaps influenced by her lively and adorable personality, Qinghui also became more lively.

He explained, "This is a smock, underwear, and it needs to be worn like this..." Then he demonstrated.

She became even more certain that these two women were not human. A strange feeling rose within her! She began to explain carefully.

Watching the three of them chat by candlelight into the night, Wei Lan quietly closed the door and left.

Wei Lan gently closed the door, looking at the three young women inside, still in their late teens and early twenties. A hint of envy crossed her mind, but she quickly dismissed it.

He went to Wen'er's room next door. Looking at the sleeping Wen'er, a feeling of tenderness welled up in his heart. Then, he gently closed the door and went to the front hall.

The housekeeper was instructing the servants to clear the table and other items. Seeing Wei Lan approach, she stepped forward and whispered, "Madam, it's late, you should go and rest. We'll take care of things here."

Wei Lan nodded and said, "Thank you for your trouble, Butler Jin. Please arrange for people to take turns resting tomorrow."

Butler Jin, dressed in his butler's uniform and wearing blue cloth boots, thanked her softly, "Madam, you're too kind. It's my pleasure."

He paused, then added, "We are all grateful to Madam. If it weren't for her, we wouldn't be so relaxed now. We don't have to endure the sun and rain. And they were able to find a good family."

Wei Lan thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "Find a few more helpers. The adults may have things to do tonight and come back late. Make sure the kitchen is ready. Also, if it gets too late, you should go back and rest early. Just make sure they're settled."

Butler Jin quickly replied, "Yes, Madam, rest assured, hot meals are always prepared." He paused, then added, "The box that Old Master Weng sent today has already been placed in the room."

Then he whispered again, "Madam, in our Jin family village, the herb gatherers collected some fresh wolfberries, dried herbs, prepared rehmannia root, and angelica root in the mountains."

These have the effects of promoting blood circulation, nourishing liver blood, moisturizing the skin, and beautifying the complexion. They've also been placed in the room. Madam, would you like to use them to make chicken soup tomorrow?

Upon hearing this, Wei Lan said, "We appreciate your kindness in spending so much. These medicinal herbs are quite valuable; we should take money from the manor to pay for them. We can't accept them for nothing."

"Yes, Madam, I understand. It's not much, but it's a small token of my appreciation. They've already gone home this afternoon. If they send more next time, would you mind buying more?"

Wei Lan nodded, then instructed, "If there's any good meat at the market, you can buy it first."

Butler Jin nodded in agreement, noticing the moon was setting and shadows streaming in from the west through the window. He then advised, "Yes, Madam, please go and rest. We're almost finished here."

"Okay, thank you for your help." She slowly walked into the courtyard, preparing to return to her room to rest, while pondering tomorrow's dishes.

Jie Huayu is helping the adults handle some business matters and trade goods in Wanzhou City. It is said that Wanzhou City has convenient transportation and abundant resources.

Moreover, the transactions at this market from Wanzhou, specifically with Miss Xie, involved huge sums of money, and Xie Huayu was highly regarded by Miss Xie.

The other women, including Tu Fanghua's brother Tu Zhe, are currently helping to survey the city's layout and lay the groundwork. Bi Yunyan, Yun Su, and Piao Miaoyue are all highly accomplished cultivators.

He sighed to himself, 'All I can do is help with the housework.'

Before she knew it, an arm gently pulled her into an embrace. A breath washed over her. She instantly collapsed into his arms. Imitating Yun Su's seductive words, she said, "My beloved."

A voice whispered in her ear, "You've worked hard. Don't overwork yourself in the future. Get some rest." She nodded slightly. A door to a courtyard house opened gently without any wind, then closed softly again.

In the restless latter half of the night, after the midnight clouds dispersed, a bright moon appeared before my bed, nestled in my arms.

The bright moon shines down, and her beautiful hair flows in the wind.

They danced back and forth incessantly. Half an hour later, the sounds gradually quieted down.

It is barely audible, and it is the coldest time of the fifth watch. The spring flows long down the ravine and up the ravine!

In the warm room, I gently pulled the blanket up and watched her drift off to sleep! Her pretty face was filled with contentment and peace!

I opened the door quietly and stepped out. At that moment, I felt utterly refreshed, my mind clear and empty!

Thinking to himself, 'The matter of the City God must be dealt with as soon as possible, the matter of Stone Village must also be resolved, and Black Wind Village, Black Wind Village!'

Changzhou's One Qi Alliance! The handling of the dragon's meat and blood, the city's construction! Sigh, so much to do!

Thinking about it, I realized I had too many things to worry about. 'First, I'll practice my sword skills, then I'll check the kill spots!'

Then, the entire courtyard erupted like a blinding flash, the glint of blades reflecting the bright moonlight, scattering everywhere! The blades flashed like lightning. It was impossible to tell whether it was a beautiful scene or just a beautiful sight!

The flash of the blade gradually faded, and a robust figure appeared. At this moment, he seemed like a gentleman of jade, his entire body gleaming with a golden light.

My mind sank, and those trivial matters from just moments ago resurfaced in my thoughts. 'Strength, I lack strength,' I thought, 'How frustrating!'

Sensing something was wrong, just as he was about to circulate his inner energy, a strange beast appeared in the void, its feet resting on floating clouds, its entire body gray. Is this how it is?

A lion's head, deer antlers, tiger's eyes, elk's body, dragon scales, and an ox's tail. It reminds me of the mythical Qilin beasts found in many books. This is no ordinary creature. It can devour ghosts and suppress hell! Evil spirits cannot invade it! However, it's too small; it's not very imposing.

Suddenly, it opened its mouth and spat out a beam of orange-red flame that directly burned He Chen. A touch of warmth, without any burning sensation. The flame pierced through the void, directly burning his divine consciousness, instantly incinerating all the complex and anxious thoughts!

Suddenly, an unprecedented surge of thought arose. In the void, all worries vanished, and he calmly observed the mortal world, his heart unmoved. In a moment of enlightenment, his thoughts traveled a thousand miles in an instant, his sword techniques followed in rapid succession, and his mental cultivation circulated at a speed a hundred times faster than usual.

In a short time, he witnessed all aspects of human life! Then, his consciousness returned.

He whispered, 'Foundation? The will of the spirit, the inner energy, the body itself, and the blade in hand—those are the true essence!'

At this moment, the Qilin had disappeared.

He thought to himself, 'I underestimated the evil spirits after all, and almost fell for their trap.' So he activated his inner energy, and his clothes spontaneously combusted without any wind, quickly bursting into flames.

A foul stench wafted through the air, but with a wave of his hand, the stench vanished instantly, disappearing three thousand feet into the sky. He couldn't let the stench wake the beauty from her sweet dreams!

Standing with his hands behind his back, bathed in moonlight, he took out a blue scholar's robe, round-necked, for warmth, and a pair of black canvas boots. Made by Sister Lan herself, they fit him perfectly.

'This demon is truly powerful,'

Looking inside, the kill points are over 110,000, which is not bad this time. 'The mental cultivation technique, swordsmanship, and Divine Bell Shield are powerful, as clearly demonstrated in numerous battles, but the kill points are far from enough!'
