Chapter 406

Lin Zhangqing and Chen Zi Ya both nodded; since things had reached this point, it could be considered a perfect resolution.

Lin Zhangqing prepared to take them and bid farewell; after all, since Mu Xiaoxiao was now his Dao companion.

There were some things he had to explain to her clearly before he left Qingyun Corner. The hour was getting late, so he was just about to ask to take his leave from Great-Grandmother Xu.

Unexpectedly, Great-Grandmother Xu spoke up at this moment: "Since Fellow Daoist Fenghua has prepared gifts for these two juniors of mine, I cannot be without a gesture of my own.

These two sets of second-grade array disks are for your protection; let Xiao Ya teach you how to use them later. Take them!"

After speaking, she took two jade boxes out from her storage bracelet and tossed them gently.

They landed in the hands of Mu Xiaoxiao and Mu Jiuyin.

The two of them quickly stood up and respectfully thanked Great-Grandmother Xu.

Lin Zhangqing also stood up at this time to bid farewell to the elders present, preparing to leave.

After both elders agreed, Mu Qingrong escorted the four of them out of the Commander's Mansion.

On the way back, Chen Zi Ya and Mu Xiaoxiao whispered to each other behind them, while Lin Zhangqing and Mu Jiuyin walked together in front.

Her younger sister's matter had finally been resolved quite satisfactorily, so the expression on Mu Jiuyin's face was relatively relaxed and happy.

That was why she jokingly said to Lin Zhangqing: "Senior Brother Lin! I shouldn't call you Senior Brother Lin now!

I should call you Third Brother-in-law, and you should call me Second Sister! Why don't you call me Second Sister now and let me hear it?"

Lin Zhangqing couldn't help but laugh when he heard this. He shook his head and said: "That won't do! 'Third Brother-in-law' sounds too awful. I think it's better if you keep calling me Senior Brother Lin!

If you want me to call you Second Sister, that's fine too; as long as you can beat me in a fight, I will immediately change how I address you.

But if you can't beat me, I can only call you Junior Sister Mu. But don't call me any 'Third Brother-in-law'; it really sounds too awful!" Mu Jiuyin rolled her eyes and continued: "So I have to beat you before you'll change how you address me! That's fine too.

However, the condition is that you cannot use that horn that can summon thunder! Otherwise, I definitely won't have any chance at all, and it's highly likely I'll get hurt."

Lin Zhangqing didn't expect her to actually dare to fight him. However, he had just been speaking casually; he didn't expect Mu Jiuyin to take it seriously! After thinking about it, he agreed and they made an appointment to find an opportunity to spar once they were on the ship.

The main thing was that he had always relied on the thunder horn or the Purple Crystal Scorpion to deal with enemies; he rarely participated in Dharma battles directly himself.

After this Foundation Establishment, he didn't know what his own strength was like. Having a rare opportunity to spar with an elite disciple of the Xianyin Sect was a pretty good choice.

After a while, the four of them entered the market and returned to the inn. Then, the three women left Lin Zhangqing behind and went into the room next to his.

He guessed that Chen Zi Ya must be seizing the time to teach the two Mu sisters how to use the array disk set that Great-Grandmother Xu had gifted them.

So he didn't think too much about it and returned to his room alone. After activating the restrictions and arrays on the door.

He entered the space directly; he had to arrange some things before boarding the ship.

Of course, the most important thing was to throw the high-grade spirit stone raw ore harvested today into the deep pit and let Lin Zhangliu absorb and digest it. As soon as he entered the inner space, he rushed to the deep pit and poured the four raw stones harvested today into it all at once.

Deer then gathered around, but they didn't dare to come close when they saw Lin Zhangqing standing on the edge of the deep pit.

Lin Zhangqing quickly left the edge of the pit, petted and smoothed the fur of all his little treasures to soothe them, and fed them all Spirit Nurturing Pills.

This time, he definitely wouldn't be able to come in for a while; after all, there might be Nascent Soul cultivators guarding the Wanbao Pavilion's Town-Sea Giant Ship.

Therefore, he had already decided that for the sake of safety, he would try his best not to come into the inner space during his time on the ship! So his entry today was also to give Xu Meiniang instructions regarding the work and arrangements for the coming period.

Zhao Liyu was still in the midst of her Hundred-Day Foundation Establishment, so he wouldn't disturb her for now; he would just let Xu Meiniang pass on the instructions he had for her later.

Seeing that Xu Meiniang had already come over, he immediately shooed the Deer away to play. After she paid her respects and greeted Lin Zhangqing.

Lin Zhangqing immediately asked: "Meiniang, how much Vermilion Fruit Wine is left in the inner space? Bring it all out for me."

Xu Meiniang quickly replied: "Master, all the Vermilion Fruit Wine from last time has already been taken by you. Aside from the little bit you bestowed upon us last time, there is none left!

However, during this period, we have harvested over three hundred more hundred-year Vermilion Fruits, and they are all kept in the room."

"If Master needs them, I will start brewing the Vermilion Fruit Wine immediately, and you will have spirit wine in about seven days!"

Lin Zhangqing shook his head immediately upon hearing this; seven days was too long, it was already too late.

So he simply said: "No, there's no time left. Bring out all those three hundred-plus Vermilion Fruits for me!"

Xu Meiniang agreed immediately, then returned to the courtyard, took two large jade boxes from the storage room, and handed them to Lin Zhangqing.

She said: "Master! There are three hundred and sixty hundred-year Vermilion Fruits inside. Please keep them safe!"

Lin Zhangqing nodded, opened them to take a look, and after finding no issues, he put them into his storage bag.

Then he instructed Xu Meiniang: "Starting from tomorrow, I will be away for a relatively long time and won't be able to come into the inner space.

So there are some things I need to tell you in advance! You can pass these on to Zhao Liyu later. There are a few aspects in total! First, from now on, keep half of the hundred-year Vermilion Fruits you harvest and store them well; as for the other half, brew them into Vermilion Fruit Wine and seal them for storage as well."

"Yes! Master, this subordinate understands!" Xu Meiniang agreed quickly.

He nodded and continued: "The second aspect is that the inner space will soon expand by several thousand acres of land. You must find ways to utilize them as much as possible.

If it's really not possible, you can also scatter some spirit seeds or flower seeds on them. You don't need to catalyze them or anything; just let them grow freely!

Although this will be many times slower, it is still better than letting the land lie waste like this. You and Zhao Liyu can arrange this yourselves!"
