After the welcoming banquet, the Wei father and son sat in a private room and chatted.
Wei Xiangdong frowned and asked, "Tianci, what's the situation with the Temple now? Is there still trouble?"
Wei Tianci smiled slightly: "Dad, don't worry about it. I can handle the temple's affairs."
As for his one-year agreement with Helena, he didn't need to mention it, lest he cause his family unnecessary trouble.
Seeing Wei Tianci's extremely confident expression, Wei Xiangdong was not overly worried.
Tianci is no longer the spoiled brat he once was; he has grown into a strong tree that shelters his family from the storms of life.
However, he added, "Tianci, if you run into any trouble, be sure to tell me."
"Your father still has some influence in China."
Wei Tianci chuckled: "Of course, weren't you always the one cleaning up my messes in the past few years?"
The father and son suddenly burst into laughter, a heartwarming moment that seemed inexplicable.
After their late-night conversation, Wei Tianci went into his master bedroom.
Ning Xingruo was already prepared, dressed in pretty home pajamas and with light makeup, tossing and turning as she waited for Wei Tianci to arrive.
When their eyes met, Ning Xingruo shyly turned off the light, and Wei Tianci leaped onto the Simmons bed.
Wei Tianci and Ning Xingruo's brief separation felt like a new marriage, and they partied all night long.
The next morning, Wei Tianci took Ning Xingruo's hand and led her into his family's secret room.
With a casual wave of his hand, a handful of crystal-clear pills appeared in his palm: "These are specially prepared for you."
These pills were custom-made by Wei Tianci based on Ning Xingruo's physical attributes, but they did not have specific names.
"You can call them 'Starry Night Pills,' which are designed to improve your physique, complementing your strengths and compensating for your weaknesses, making your future cultivation twice as effective with half the effort."
"I estimate that your cultivation speed can be increased by two-thirds compared to when you didn't take the pills."
He's already at the Nascent Soul stage, but Xingruo is only at the Foundation Establishment stage.
Although Ning Xingruo's cultivation speed was already very fast, Wei Tianci was still not satisfied.
He at least knows ancient alchemy techniques; if his woman's cultivation speed isn't among the best, then what's the point of him?
Ning Xingruo took the pill in a daze, her eyes reddening as she looked at Wei Tianci.
Wei Tianci had been living in such perilous circumstances all this time, yet he still cared about him and even took the time to refine pills for him.
'What virtue or ability do I, Ning Xingruo, possess to be a woman bestowed by heaven?'
In the days that followed, Ning Xingruo cultivated day and night in the secret chamber, hoping to narrow the gap between herself and Tianci.
Wei Tianci's public persona truly shocked many people's values.
He single-handedly managed both Tianxing Group and Lingtian Group, enduring much discussion and enjoying considerable fame.
Furthermore, during this process, they even thought that Lingtian Group was failing and that Ling Xumei had disappeared, so many powerful forces in the north actually wanted to come to Zhonghai to get a share of the pie.
The result was self-evident: under Wei Tianci's forceful intervention, these scoundrels slunk away.
In an era where even those at the Golden Core stage could roam freely in the city, Wei Tianci's Nascent Soul stage was beyond the imagination of ordinary forces.
Those who knew Wei Tianci from the very beginning were especially astonished.
Could this be the chosen one?
From a good-for-nothing playboy, he suddenly rose like a rocket to become a Nascent Soul cultivator who could fly and escape into the earth.
That's ridiculous.
