464: Goodbye, old friend
He spoke with Zhao Mianshuang about the courtyard.
This matter was a small thing for Zhao Mianshuang.
Moreover, Zhao Mianshuang regarded Jiang Ning as a confidant; even if Jiang Ning hadn't mentioned it, Zhao Mianshuang would have helped look after it.
Bidding farewell to Zhao Mianshuang.
Jiang Ning returned to the courtyard.
Now that he was at Soul Transformation, Jiang Ning's speed was much faster, and his understanding of Law was much deeper.
After arriving home, Jiang Ning informed Shen Jinhuan and the others and went straight into his room.
He planned to take the foundation-stabilizing spirit pill that Elixir Patrol had given him now.
Jiang Ning estimated that this kind of Medicinal Pill that could stabilize one's Realm would not keep him in the process of "digesting the medicinal effects" for long.
He swallowed it.
Jiang Ning checked the panel; the progress bar flashed, but not frequently.
But Jiang Ning could feel that the Divine Soul within his Sea of Consciousness had become more "solid."
His consciousness also became increasingly clear.
"This is good stuff!"
In the entire Cultivation World, anything that could affect the Divine Soul was a good thing.
Even Gu Yanqing back then hadn't found many such Heaven And Earth Treasures and Medicinal Pills on his journey.
Otherwise, with Gu Yanqing's Divine Soul strength, once recovered, he could have walked sideways in the Lower Realm.
The medicinal effects were still being digested.
Shen Jinhuan took a look at the door.
She had confidence in the things Jiang Ning decided; if Jiang Ning said he would make it by tomorrow, then he would.
Qing Dai didn't know Jiang Ning well. "Young Miss, you say the Boss is in closed-door cultivation now. If he hasn't come out by tomorrow morning, should we call him or not?"
On one side was closed-door cultivation, and on the other was an Integration Realm Immortal Cave.
Qing Dai couldn't decide either.
Shen Jinhuan said, "Since my Revered Master said it wouldn't delay tomorrow, then it certainly won't. My Revered Master's words have always come true. Sister Qing Dai, you don't need to worry about these things."
Xiao Bai also said seriously, "Sister Qing Dai, Huanhuan is right. Revered Master is very amazing, very, very strong."
Seeing both of Jiang Ning's Disciples say this, Qing Dai felt much more at ease.
But she still couldn't be completely relieved.
She waited in the courtyard the whole time.
Until dawn.
Qing Dai stood up.
She was a bit anxious, but in the next moment, she heard the door sound.
Jiang Ning pushed open the door and walked out.
Qing Dai hurriedly stepped forward. "Boss, are you okay?"
"I feel great!"
Jiang Ning stretched, feeling refreshed.
This Medicinal Pill was as he had estimated; it didn't keep him in the digestion process for long at all. The Medicinal Pill had already been completely digested and absorbed while it was still dark.
During the late night, Jiang Ning simply studied Space Law for a while.
There was also the application of the Soul Piercing Needle.
With the increase in Divine Soul strength, Jiang Ning felt that the Soul Piercing Needle, this Divine Soul Martial Skill, was becoming a bit redundant.
If he used the Martial Skill, the power of the Soul Piercing Needle was actually no different from him directly using his Divine Soul to attack people.
But if he didn't use it, the consumption of Divine Soul would be slightly more than using the Soul Piercing Needle.
Now, Jiang Ning's former killing move had become somewhat like "tasteless to eat but a pity to throw away" for the current Jiang Ning.
Jiang Ning felt that the Soul Piercing Needle still had some room for development and enhancement.
Qing Dai said, "Boss, remember the matter of going to White Tiger Continent. Should I go and call the two Young Misses now?"
Jiang Ning waved his hand.
Huanhuan had a strong sense of time, and while Xiao Bai seemed carefree, she never slacked off on things that needed to be done.
Sure enough.
In less than half a quarter of an hour.
Shen Jinhuan and Xiao Bai walked out of the room.
After a few words, Jiang Ning put the person and the beast into the Small World. As for Xiao Hui, Jiang Ning took him along as well.
Before leaving, Jiang Ning instructed Qing Dai, "I said to look after the courtyard, but there's actually nothing in our courtyard. Prioritize your own safety.
If you encounter difficulties, remember what I said.
I'll give you the bottom line: there are no secrets in this courtyard; it's just a place to stay. If this place is gone, we can just rent another one."
Jiang Ning was afraid that if Qing Dai encountered trouble, she would think there was something important in the courtyard and defend it to the death, leading to her losing her life.
Qing Dai nodded.
Everything was settled.
Jiang Ning set off for the Spirit Pill Hall.
This place was really close to the Spirit Pill Hall.
After arriving, Yun Qingqing, who was in the hall, waved at Jiang Ning.
The young girl stood on her tiptoes, waving in a youthful and lively manner.
Yun Qingqing shouted charmingly, "Over here, over here!"
A group of people looked at Yun Qingqing with admiration.
Yun Qingqing was currently Elixir Patrol's most beloved Disciple. Because of this relationship, the Yun Family's status in the Imperial City had improved quite a bit.
If anyone became her Dao Companion, not only would they have no worries about Medicinal Pills in the future, but their status would also directly rise by several levels.
Now, seeing Yun Qingqing being so close to a man, everyone looked at Jiang Ning with hostility.
Who is this guy?
Why is he so close to my goddess!
Truly detestable!
"This Jiang Ning is truly detestable!"
Not everyone in the Spirit Pill Hall had forgotten Jiang Ning. Gongsun Wangyue, who had his top spot snatched by Jiang Ning during the newcomer exam, remembered him.
Gongsun Wangyue, dressed in a noble sapphire-blue robe, said to Xu Sheng beside him, "I heard rumors before that Jiang Ning was back, and seeing him today, it's true.
I can understand his aura less and less. One look and you can tell this guy is busy with cultivation every day and has already forgotten Alchemy Technique.
Does such a person deserve such treatment from the Spirit Pill Hall?"
Xu Sheng yawned on the side.
Gongsun Wangyue became anxious. "I'm talking to you, Xu Sheng. How can you be so lacking in etiquette!"
Xu Sheng glanced at Gongsun Wangyue and said speechlessly, "Gongsun Wangyue, you look exactly like Hong Xiu."
"Who is Hong Xiu?"
Gongsun Wangyue was puzzled.
Xu Sheng said, "One day I went to the Jiaofangsi. I didn't go to Hong Xiu's room, but to Lv Fu's room. That day, Hong Xiu looked just like you, constantly saying Lv Fu was a bitch."
Gongsun Wangyue: ???
He immediately became angry. "Xu Sheng, what do you mean!"
Xu Sheng: "Don't you know what I mean? If you lose, you lose. Look at how anxious you are. By your logic, shouldn't I be cursing you too? Didn't I lose even more thoroughly back then?
I really don't get it.
Do you really like Alchemy? I don't think so. You like the things Alchemy Technique brings you.
Unlike me, if I don't like it, I don't like it. Who cares!
If you ask me, you're not like this because of the success or failure of that newcomer exam. I heard... the Gongsun Family intends to form a marriage alliance with the Yun Family? Have you taken a fancy to Yun Qingqing?"
Xu Sheng looked at Yun Qingqing and nodded. "Your taste isn't bad. Yun Qingqing is the charming type, looking pure and cute like a Child, but her figure is extraordinary, with that small waist and big butt.
Top-tier!"
Xu Sheng gave a thumb up.
But Yun Qingqing was clearly not someone he could provoke.
Xu Sheng's life philosophy was to get the women he could get, spend the Spirit Stones he could spend, and finally, if absolutely necessary, occasionally brush up on his Alchemy Technique.
Gongsun Wangyue's eyes went wide with anger.
"You! Vulgar! Vulgar!"
