Feng Chu let out a sharp, explosive sound. Heavens! Seventh Rank!
Only Sky Island could possess such a rare treasure, right?
So, isn't it time for him to break through the bottleneck that has kept him stuck for so many years?
"Thank you, Madam!" Feng Chu was overjoyed.
The little fox raised its eyes, its chilling gaze landing on Feng Chu.
Meeting the little fox's chilling eyes, Feng Chu's heart skipped a beat...
That look in my eyes... it's so familiar. There's a sense of fear of being dominated in it...
"Hehehe." Feng Chu scratched his head awkwardly. What's going on? Why does this fox look a bit like the Venerable One?
He asked curiously, "Where did this little spirit beast come from? It's quite cute."
"Do you want to hold it?" Liuyue stroked the little fox's head.
Bang! Before Feng Chu could react, the stool beneath him shattered with a loud crack, without any warning.
Feng Chu landed hard on his bottom, cracking his buttocks.
"No, no need." Feng Chu got up. Heavens! Why does this fox have the same eyes as His Majesty? Could it be His Majesty in disguise?
Thinking of this possibility... Feng Chu shuddered violently. It seemed that this possibility was not entirely out of the question!
"No, no need." He doesn't deserve it!
Even if you gave him eight hundred lives, he wouldn't dare to hug her!
"Um?"
Jun Liuyue paused, then lightly tapped the fox's head. Is this little guy really that scary? Look how frightened the Ghost Palace Master has become.
"Cough cough cough." Feng Chu silently moved back two seats, keeping the furthest distance between himself and Jun Liuyue, as if she were some kind of monstrous flood.
"If there's nothing else, I'll take my leave now."
"Mm." Liuyue nodded.
Watching Feng Chu's hasty retreat, she couldn't help but feel a little puzzled. She looked down at the little fox in her arms and asked, "Do you look scary?"
Little fox; Hmph.
Seeing the little guy's proud and arrogant appearance, Liu Yue shook her head helplessly, "What a proud and arrogant little guy."

In the inn.
Sheng Yang gasped, his body covered in wounds, each one deep enough to expose the bone.
He once thought he was going to die, but unexpectedly... he was able to wake up again.
"Take off your clothes," Liu Yue said as she walked in.
"Miss!" A blush rose on Sheng Yang's scarred face. "I can do it myself, no... no need..."
“In my eyes, you are no different from a piece of pork,” Jun Liuyue said in a deep voice. “Your body is too heavy. If it is not dealt with in time, you may not be able to cultivate in the future.”
“But—” Sheng Yang still hesitated, after all, men and women are different.
“Miss, let me do it!” The little demon stepped forward and said earnestly, “I can treat my brother’s wounds.”
“Alright, do as I say.” Liu Yue did not refuse and took out a sharp dagger. “Scrape off the rotten flesh on his body, and then evenly cover it with this powder.”
Scrape...scrape the rotten flesh?
The little demon was stunned when she heard this; she had never done anything like this before! But when she heard that if it wasn't dealt with in time, her brother might not be able to cultivate in the future, she was shocked.
Holding the dagger, she gritted her teeth and said, "Brother, just bear with it."
"Okay." Sheng Yang nodded.
But he still underestimated the pain of scraping raw, rotten flesh.
Before long, a plateful of rotten flesh was scraped off, emitting a nauseating stench of decay.
Sheng Yang's face was extremely pale, as if he might faint at any moment.
Sheng Xiaoyao carefully applied the medicine powder to the wound, her forehead covered in cold sweat.
"Not bad." Liu Yue stepped out from behind the screen and nodded in satisfaction.
"Really?" The little demon's eyes lit up instantly. Great! She wasn't useless after all!
"You cannot use your spiritual power for a month due to these injuries," Liu Yue said calmly. "You should rest and recuperate in Tianhe City for now."
"Miss?" Sheng Yang asked in surprise, "Aren't you staying in Tianhe City anymore?"
The Sheng family was exonerated, and Sheng Yang was appointed as the new city lord, in charge of all affairs in Tianhe City. To compensate the Sheng family, the Azure Dragon Emperor also bestowed many gifts upon them.
"Now that you are the city lord of Tianhe City, you no longer need to stay by my side."
“Miss! Without you, I, Sheng Yang, would never have been able to clear the name of the Sheng family and avenge them. I have no interest in the position of city lord. I only want to stay by your side for the rest of my life, even if it means going through fire and water.”
Sheng Yang excitedly tried to get up, but was pressed down by an invisible spiritual force.
Jun Liuyue raised an eyebrow: "Who said you couldn't risk your life for me in Tianhe City?"
"What does Miss mean?" Sheng Yang asked, puzzled.
"I need you to train an elite force for me," Liu Yue said calmly. "Within a year, I want all of them to reach the Spirit Emperor Realm and be at my service."
Hiss! Upon hearing this, Sheng Yang gasped. One year—he had advanced to the Spirit Emperor Realm?
If such a force existed, even the Azure Dragon royal family would have to be wary of it.
"But……"
"You can go to the slave market to select them; I'll leave everything to you. Perfect timing, I've recently researched some marrow-cleansing elixirs that can alter their physique and bone structure." Even the most mediocre talent is enough if they have ambition!
Marrow cleansing liquid...
Upon hearing this, Sheng Yang's heart was filled with turmoil. Suddenly, he remembered something and asked, "Miss, what is your relationship with the legendary Ghost Doctor?"
"I am the Ghost Doctor."
Sheng Yang: !!!
The legendary ghost doctor was right in front of me.
This is simply too unbelievable! Sheng Yang suppressed the turmoil in his heart. A hundred elite troops, all of whom were high-level cultivators, is simply terrifying!
"I guarantee I will complete the mission!" Sheng Yang said excitedly.
I instantly felt an extra weight on my shoulders.
"You should take a good rest for the next month."
Liuyue yawned, turned around and left the house.
Watching the girl's retreating figure, Sheng Yang clenched his fist and suddenly realized... what a right decision he had made.
"Miss."
In the courtyard, Jun Liuyue heard Xiao Yao's voice behind her. She stopped and turned to look at Xiao Yao.
"I want to learn alchemy, Miss... could you take me as your apprentice!" The little demon knelt down with a thud, her eyes filled with sincerity. Although she was a half-demon with tracking skills, she was still unable to protect herself or provide any assistance to her mistress.
If she could become an alchemist, she could help her young lady and her brother.
"Alchemy is not as simple as you imagine. Are you sure you want to learn it?" Meeting the little demon's sincere gaze, Liu Yue raised an eyebrow and said seriously.
"Please give me some guidance, Miss," the little demon said earnestly.
