Chapter 31

"Wow, so fragrant!"

The main room's door was pushed open, and Gu Caiyi, wearing silk pajamas, sighed.

Opposite her, Luo Chen was sitting at the doorway, holding a large flower-patterned porcelain bowl, shoveling rice with spiritual rice into his mouth.

A few pieces of red beef were placed on one side of the bowl; when the rice was shoveled, the beef trembled, which was very tempting.

"You made it yourself?"

Looking at the woman who walked to his front and stared straight at the few pieces of beef, Luo Chen said tentatively.

"Want a piece?"

"Okay!"

Damn, you're really not polite!

Watching the largest piece of beef enter that rosy small mouth under the traction of spiritual power, Luo Chen felt like crying.

To reward himself for working hard today, he specially cut two taels of meat, and now it had all gone into this woman's mouth.

It just so happened that she was at the eighth level of Qi Refining, and he had nowhere to reason.

It's all my mouth's fault!

"Ugh, soft, rotten, and flavorful, fragrant, spicy, and delicious; the faint medicinal herb smell not only locked in the juice but also contained rich spiritual energy."

Gu Caiyi narrowed her eyes, enjoying swallowing that mouthful of beef.

"I didn't expect you to be so good at living; this craftsmanship is much better than our Tianxiang Pavilion's chefs, and even compared to the spiritual chefs of the Zhong Ding family, it's not inferior."

After praising a few words, she discovered that Luo Chen was quickly shoveling the rice and dishes in his bowl.

She poked Luo Chen's head, both angry and amused.

"I ate a piece of your beef, is it that serious?"

Gulp!

"Hungry, purely hungry, don't misunderstand, Sister Caiyi."

Gu Caiyi licked her lips, still wanting more.

"I didn't eat your meat for nothing; I've already found out clearly for you. The yin energy of Dahe Square only seeps out through the formation and has no bad effects; as long as you don't stay for too long, there is almost no influence."

"How long is 'too long'?" Luo Chen asked hurriedly.

"At least starting from a month, the kind of closed-door cultivation without moving."

Luo Chen let out a long sigh of relief.

When he was sleeping with a thick quilt last night, he was more or less anxious.

Cultivation is already very difficult; if his Dao foundation was ruined by yin energy, that would really be bad luck.

His mood relaxed, and the speed of eating slowed down involuntarily.

His gaze even had time to follow the graceful figure of Gu Caiyi.

Under the control of spiritual power, a bucket of water was drawn from the corner of the courtyard, and she bent down, clear water brushing her face.

When she raised her head, the water droplets on her face had a colorful and magnificent feeling under the sunlight.

"Does it look good?"

"It looks good!"

"Giggle..."

Forgive Luo Chen for not knowing what adjectives to use; he could only use the sound of a hen laying an egg to describe that crisp and charming laughter.

Gu Caiyi sat on the swing built under the tree in the west wing room of the courtyard, suddenly feeling a bit melancholy.

"They all say I look good, but they also say I don't meet the entry requirements of the Hehuan Sect."

What are the entry requirements for the Hehuan Sect?

Don't sects only look at age and spiritual roots when recruiting disciples?

Gu Caiyi didn't say, sitting on the swing that looked like it was built for a child, her waist and hips were pulled tight, forming a peach-like contour.

Swinging back and forth, her face without makeup looked at the sky, a bit lonely.

Luo Chen realized that Gu Caiyi was different from Bai Meiling and Feng Xia; she was more like some of the people he had seen who were chasing Foundation Establishment.

Among rogue cultivators, there are many such people, but not that many.

Because most of them will gradually become vulgar in the embarrassing current situation and end up working for a living all day long.

Then, in the daily toil, they forget that the original intention of toiling is actually to pursue the Great Dao of Foundation Establishment.

Luo Chen is also a vulgar person, but he reminds himself from time to time that the purpose of refining pills to earn spirit stones is not for spirit stones, but to buy enough resources to pursue longevity.

"When did you come back this morning, why didn't I hear any sound?"

"I came back at the hour of Yin last night."

The hour of Yin is about three to five in the morning.

Compared to coming home at the hour of Mao before, it was about two hours earlier.

No wonder I didn't hear any movement.

"It's been like this for the past two months; those ladybugs don't know what's going on, they are extra enthusiastic at the beginning of the month and flock to the Tianxiang Pavilion."

Ladybugs?

Prostitutes, right!

"Then after two or three days, I don't know if the spirit stones are spent or if they have no energy, they go back in a dejected manner."

Wait, beginning of the month?

Luo Chen seemed to realize something and subconsciously avoided Gu Caiyi.

"Actually, those of us who dance and play music are all fine; it's just the sisters who do flesh business who are tired. They told their mother that they are especially tired at the beginning of the month and want to adjust their holidays to the beginning of the month."

A certain man laughed awkwardly, saying nothing.

Staring at the remaining rice grains in the bowl, he clamped them into his mouth one by one.

"Of course, the sisters also earn more. Some have already thought about persisting for a period of time, saving enough spirit stones to change to another market, and finding an honest rogue cultivator to marry. Strive to give birth to a child with spiritual roots and join a big sect in the future to achieve Foundation Establishment and Core Formation."

Luo Chen lowered his head, drawing circles with his fingers.

I really thank them on behalf of honest rogue cultivators.

"Why don't you speak, do you not like listening to things in the Tianxiang Pavilion?" Gu Caiyi suddenly turned her head to look over.

Luo Chen waved his hand hurriedly, "How could that be, it's just that I haven't eaten pork, so I don't know how to talk."

"Hey, you kid!" Gu Caiyi laughed teasingly, then advised: "If you still want to achieve Foundation Establishment, then it's best not to lose your primordial yang before that."

Luo Chen said "Hmm".

Regarding this matter, he was relatively knowledgeable.

Most cultivation techniques set a golden lock in the Qi Refining chapter to ensure that low-level disciples do not lose their primordial yang.

There are similar warnings in the Everlasting Spring Art.

"By the way, let me ask you something." Luo Chen felt a bit of a headache, "In the inner city, how do cultivators solve the problem if they want to practice spells?"

Gu Caiyi looked at him strangely, "Just practice, what else can you solve?"

"No, I mean some spells that need to be released constantly and practiced constantly. Like Fireball Art, Great Sword Art, and other large-scale attacks."

Luo Chen said distressingly: "The place is too small, and it's easy to disturb the neighbors."

"The inner city strictly forbids fighting; why do you learn those spells? Shouldn't you keep your spiritual power full at all times to sprint to a higher realm?" Gu Caiyi didn't understand.

Luo Chen was even stranger, "Spells and magic tools are means to protect the Dao; shouldn't they be mastered proficiently?"

"And, the inner city doesn't seem absolutely safe either!"

"Well, there are indeed one or two idiots in the inner city every year who provoke the regulations of the Jade Cauldron Sword Sect; it doesn't count as absolutely safe."

Gu Caiyi shrugged, giving Luo Chen the answer he wanted.

"As far as I know, inner city cultivators who want to practice high-power spells either go out of the city to the wilderness or go to the fighting platform of the Jade Cauldron Sword Pavilion."

"Fighting platform?"

"Hmm, it's paid, starting at one spirit stone per time; if you want an opponent to practice with, the price is a hundred times higher."

Luo Chen's eyelids jumped.

It turns out the Jade Cauldron Sword Sect is also so low-down in making money!

Perhaps seeing Luo Chen's empty pockets, Gu Caiyi gave him another solution.
