This courtyard was specially prepared by the Starry Sky Sect for Chu Wanwan and Si Mingye, and it is very quiet.
A thousand-year-old peach tree was planted in the center of the courtyard. Under the peach tree, Si Mingye was bent over and making breakfast by the stove.
Chu Wanwan walked over and hugged Si Mingye's slender waist from behind, saying coquettishly:
"Husband, you have such great energy! Why aren't you sleeping in this early morning? You're here cooking porridge! We don't even need to eat!"
Upon hearing Chu Wanwan's words, Si Mingye turned around, hugged her back, and teased her with a slight smile:
"My wife is right. Your husband has great stamina. What? Does that mean I didn't satisfy you last night? If you want me to sleep with you, I'd be happy to oblige!"
"Hehe... Si Mingye, I've noticed that you seem to have become a bit naughty after just one night?" Chu Wanwan said with a smile.
"Really? That's only because it's you, Wanwan. You've given me this 'bad' thought." Si Mingye chuckled, his tone full of doting and teasing.
"However, when it comes to porridge, this is no ordinary porridge. It is a spirit rice porridge that I specially prepared for you. It can nourish your body and restore your energy. Moreover, I have always liked the life of ordinary people. Let's find a beautiful place with clear waters and green mountains and live a life of working at sunrise and resting at sunset together."
Upon hearing this, a hint of longing flashed in Chu Wanwan's eyes.
"My husband, I also yearn for the kind of life you described!"
Anyway, the portal to the realm of gods won't be finished anytime soon, so in a few days we'll find a secluded paradise and live there for a while..."
Si Mingye gently stroked Chu Wanwan's nose, his eyes full of tenderness. "Then it's settled. After some time, we'll find a place like this and live our little life together."
But for now, let's try the spirit rice porridge I cooked for you first, and see if there's anything that needs improvement. I've heard that the longer spirit rice is cooked, the more fragrant and sticky it becomes; I've been simmering it for almost an hour!
As he spoke, Si Mingye ladled out two bowls of spirit rice porridge and handed one to Chu Wanwan.
Chu Wanwan took the bowl, took a small sip, and felt incredibly satisfied with the smooth texture and the nourishing spiritual energy.
"Mmm, it's really delicious, my husband. In our ordinary life from now on, you must cook porridge for me often," Chu Wanwan said with a smile.
"Of course, cooking porridge for my wife is a joy for me," Si Mingye replied with a smile. The two of them enjoyed their simple and warm morning under the peach blossom tree.
The morning light filtered through the gaps in the peach blossoms, bathing them in warmth and harmony, adding to the newlyweds' mood.
Si Mingye and Chu Wanwan stayed at the Star Gate for a month, spending time with their respective families.
During this period, Chu Wanwan inspected the newly established Immortal Domain Government and found that because of its existence, the lower-level regions were much more harmonious, and the previous situation of bullying the weak had decreased significantly.
In addition, Chu Wanwan also consulted some ancient books in search of the recipe for refining a divine-level Spirit Cleansing Pill.
She spent nearly half a month searching before finally finding the recipe for a divine-level Spirit Cleansing Pill in a yellowed ancient book.
Fortunately, she had all the precious medicinal herbs listed above in her space; otherwise, it would have taken Chu Wanwan a lot of time just to find them.
Chu Wanwan gathered all the materials and began refining pills behind closed doors. Even though she was already a top-tier alchemist in the Immortal Realm, she still managed to burn several batches of pills because it was her first time refining a divine-level pill.
Finally, after many failures, Chu Wanwan successfully refined the divine-grade Spirit Cleansing Pill.
As the elixir was completed, the once clear sky immediately became overcast, and a tribulation of lightning was about to descend. Chu Wanwan stepped out of the alchemy room, looked up at the sky, and saw rolling dark clouds, flashing lightning and thunder, with a chilling aura permeating the air.
She knew this was a tribulation triggered by a divine-grade pill; only by passing this tribulation could the divine-grade Spirit Cleansing Pill be truly refined. Chu Wanwan opened her palm, and the pill, emitting a faint medicinal fragrance, floated in mid-air. Then she stepped back to the side, watching the divine-grade pill undergo the tribulation.
The first clap of thunder was deafening, as if the entire sky was trembling. Immediately afterward, a thick bolt of lightning ripped through the sky, striking directly at the divine-grade Spirit Cleansing Pill that was suspended in the air.
Chu Wanwan stared nervously at the pill, which appeared even more translucent and fragrant under the baptism of the lightning tribulation. This was a sign of improved quality, which brought her some comfort.
Immediately following, the second, third, and fourth lightning tribulations also descended upon the divine-grade pills.
As the tribulations continued to descend, the light surrounding the Divine-grade Spirit Cleansing Pill grew increasingly brilliant, illuminating the surroundings like a small sun. After each tribulation, the pill's aura became even stronger.
Si Mingye also rushed over upon hearing the news. He stood beside Chu Wanwan, witnessing the birth of this miracle together.
Finally, after the last lightning strike, the sky cleared up again.
The divine-grade Spirit Cleansing Pill emitted a dazzling light as it slowly floated into Chu Wanwan's hand. She felt the powerful energy contained within the pill, and a joyful smile appeared on her face.
"It's a success!" Chu Wanwan said with a smile. "Si Mingye, the Divine Cleansing Pill can cleanse the body of impurities and improve the level of spiritual roots."
In other words, Uncle Si and his brothers and sisters-in-law's spiritual roots might be improved. If they can upgrade to immortal or divine spiritual roots, they won't be looked down upon anymore!
The Chu family and Uncle Si now live in the Starry Sky Sect. Although no one dares to say anything about them on the surface because of her and Si Mingye, many people say behind their backs that they are a bunch of good-for-nothings who got into the sect through connections.
No matter how hard her three older brothers cultivated, they were always at the bottom of the Star Sect. Although they didn't say it, Chu Wanwan knew that they were the pride of heaven in the lower realms, and this situation must be very difficult for them.
“That’s great! Then you should practice making a few more, and then my father, your three older brothers and their wives, and even your mother can try them out.”
Si Mingye was clearly also very happy. His father was the person he cared about most in the world besides Chu Wanwan, so he was naturally very happy that his father could be promoted.
Chu Wanwan nodded upon hearing this, "Alright then, I'll go into seclusion now!"
Half a month later, seven divine-grade Spirit Cleansing Pills were produced.
