“Qinghe was a little embarrassed at first, but I told her that her brother-in-law was no outsider and that she didn’t need to be shy, so I brought her here to open up her meridians,” Chu Youzhao said.
"Thank you for your trouble, Brother Zu." Murong Qinghe was also a little embarrassed, but she was well aware of how beneficial it was to expand her meridians for cultivation. In addition, with Brother Chu's constant persuasion, she was also tempted.
Zuan originally wanted to say that they could now make the Marrow Cleansing Pill and there was no need to do it anymore, but he was worried that if he said that, the other party would misunderstand that he did not want to help her.
Thinking it was just a small favor, I agreed.
"Then you guys go ahead with your work, I'm going to find my second sister to argue with... cough cough, just to have a chat." Chu Youzhao waved her hand and ran out excitedly.
Murong Qinghe opened his mouth, originally wanting him to stay aside, but felt that bringing it up would be too offensive to his elder brother, so he ultimately said nothing.
"Don't worry, I won't touch your body." Seemingly noticing her unease, Zu'an smiled.
Murong Qinghe felt embarrassed instead: "Brother Zu, there's no need to worry."
After all, expanding one's meridians is a rather dangerous thing, and if one doesn't touch the body, the level of danger would probably increase significantly.
Zu An didn't say much. After she sat cross-legged on the couch, he sat a few feet behind her, then raised his finger and sent invisible energy into her body.
Now that we can make Marrow Cleansing Pills, we can just help her expand her options a little.
Moreover, she was already quite talented, and her meridians were much wider than Xiao Zhao's, so she naturally didn't need to be as careful as before and had to be close to her body.
Murong Qinghe let out a soft hum, feeling a tingling sensation all over her body, followed by a swelling and pain. She finally understood why Xiao Zhao and Brother Chu had called out like that before.
However, it seemed a little shameful to call him that in front of Brother Zu, so she subconsciously gritted her teeth and endured it.
Zuan's voice rang out: "There's no need to hold it in. If you deliberately suppress it, it will cause your body's meridians to constrict, which can easily lead to problems."
Hearing his words, Murong Qinghe was startled and dared not hold back any longer. Finally, a few soft moans escaped from his lips.
At first it was fine, but later it became really uncomfortable, and my voice started to get out of control.
Murong Qinghe's face flushed red. He thought to himself, "This is so embarrassing! It's like I'm making a scene, especially since my clothes are soaked with sweat and I'm almost transparent..."
Having grown up in the military, she mingled with the rough soldiers. They talked about all sorts of things, from brothels to vulgarities, and she naturally knew a bit about it.
However, seeing that Zu An remained calm and composed throughout, as steady as a mountain, she couldn't help but secretly admire him.
"Brother Zu is truly a gentleman who remains unmoved even with a woman in his lap. I was worried before, but it was really my own petty mind judging a gentleman."
Little did she know that after a night of fierce fighting, Zu'an had completely released the restlessness within him and was now in a state of sagehood, so naturally he wouldn't have any other thoughts.
An hour later, Zu An called for Chu Youzhao to help Murong Qinghe out.
Seeing that Murong Qinghe looked as if she had been pulled out of the water, Chu Youzhao was startled: "What happened to her?"
"It's alright. She has good aptitude and a high tolerance, so I helped her expand her skills a bit more. You can take her to the next room to rest," Zu'an replied.
"Okay." Chu Youzhao and Murong Qinghe's childhood friendship was genuine, so he quickly and carefully helped her out.
Murong Qinghe clung to her, his body supple and boneless, his breath hot against her skin. Chu Youzhao's heart raced, wondering if she and her brother-in-law had done anything else...
After seeing the two off, Zu'an began to calm down and refine pills. Unfortunately, the Nine Cauldrons he had obtained earlier were taken away in the secret realm. Fortunately, there was no shortage of places to refine pills in the back mountain of the academy.
In the early days, the chief priest used earth fire to build a place for alchemy in the belly of the mountain. Anyone in the academy could go there to refine pills, but of course, they would have to make certain contributions to the academy first.
Zuan is now the chief priest, so he is naturally not subject to any restrictions.
During the following period, he refined elixirs while exchanging ideas with the old master's disciples. Many of their teachings were similar to the seven cultivation techniques in the Baopu Zhenjing.
After more than half a month, he gradually mastered the "Baopu Zhenjing".
He also produced a batch of Marrow Cleansing Pills and Yuan Gathering Pills, but he soon faced a huge problem.
He's out of money!
He finally understood why Shenxuzi was so poor.
...
Inside the Bi family mansion, the patriarch, Bi Qi, looked at his son with a gloomy expression: "I told you to invite your sister back, where is she?"
Bi Ziang replied, "It seems she left the palace; she probably went to the back mountain of the academy. Come to think of it, she really doesn't care about the consequences at all."
Upon hearing that she had gone to the academy, Bi Qi's expression changed slightly, and she hurriedly said, "Go wait outside the academy. Bring her back as soon as you see her. This matter concerns the life and death of our Bi family."
