After Jiangchuan resolved the issue of connecting the enclosed space with the Qingshi passageway.

We passed through a closed tunnel and sat quietly in the café opposite the Goddess Pavilion.

I've decided to take a short break and relax.

Inside the café, soft lighting casts a warm glow on the wooden tables and chairs, creating a cozy atmosphere.

Jiang Chuan sat by the window, overlooking the bustling city of Qing, with people coming and going and cars flowing by.

He closed his eyes and began to meditate, allowing his body and mind to completely relax.

"Jiang Chuan, I just took a stroll around the Goddess Pavilion and found that the people there are organizing a beast fight." Ling Juan was not very tall and stood on top of Jiang Chuan, who was meditating.

Jiang Chuan had no interest in the beast fighting in the Goddess Pavilion, and then said, "What's so special about beast fighting?"

"You may not know this, but the prize for this beast-fighting competition is a wisp of primordial energy," Ling Juan said.

"What? Primordial aura?" Jiang Chuan knew how terrifying this aura was for enhancing magical artifacts. He himself possessed two strands of it, and in challenging opponents of higher levels, he had already defeated Maple Tree Spirit and Space Giant, beasts that lived in enclosed spaces.

But he was curious how a place like the Goddess Pavilion could have a primordial aura. Isn't a primordial aura only found in enclosed spaces?
Faced with Jiang Chuan's curiosity, Ling Juan began to reveal the answer: "This wisp of primordial aura was sent by Qing Yun Sect Master Qing Yin Yan, with the purpose of selecting superior beast species in this beast competition."

After Ling Juan said that, Jiang Chuan probably understood what was going on.

If his guess is correct, the reason is that he subdued those Taotie beasts during his last visit to the Qingyun Sect.

That place is a quick way to make money, and it can't be without fierce beasts to guard it. Qing Yinyan also had this in mind.

"Are you sure you want to let go of the primordial aura?" Ling Juan asked tentatively again.

"How could I refuse such a valuable gift that's been delivered to my door?" Jiang Chuan finished his coffee in one gulp, stood up, and walked out of the coffee shop.

"So what are you going to do next? We don't seem to have any wild beasts around here," Ling Juan said, seeing that Jiang Chuan's hands were empty.

"You have such a bad memory, have you forgotten?"

With Jiang Chuan's guidance, Ling Juan suddenly realized that he possessed Taotie.

However, everyone in Taotie Qing City knows him, so he needs to disguise himself.

"But the Taotie looks so fierce. If we let it participate in the beast fight, won't it be recognized?" Ling Juan expressed her concerns.

“I understand your concerns. I’ll go buy some equipment to disguise myself as a Taotie right now,” Jiang Chuan said, and headed towards Qing City Market.

Jiang Chuan hurried through the bustling market, his steps firm and swift.

Time is of the essence; we must find suitable camouflage equipment as soon as possible.

The market is full of all kinds of rare and exotic treasures, but finding equipment that can perfectly disguise the Taotie is not an easy task.

Jiang Chuan walked into a shop called Phantom Pavilion.

The shop displays a variety of masks, capes, and accessories.

He looked around, his gaze finally settling on a corner where a set of rather mysterious-looking camouflage equipment was displayed.

"Boss, what is this equipment for?" Jiang Chuan asked.

"This set of equipment is called the Phantom Set. It allows a person to change their appearance and hide their identity for a short period of time. However, this kind of equipment is very rare and hard to find on the market."

When the shop owner saw that Jiang Chuan was interested, he mentioned that the food was rare. In fact, he had looked at several places on his way here, but they all gave up because they were too small to accommodate the Taotie's enormous size.

"How much does this Phantom Suit cost?" Jiang Chuan asked.

"I don't want money, I want goods, and it has to be a barter system." The boss was a seasoned businessman and had a keen eye for people; he could tell from Jiang Chuan's clothes and appearance that he came from a wealthy family.

"Item? What item?" Jiang Chuan walked up to the Phantom Suit, touched its material, and assessed its value in his mind.

"I need an ancient skill scroll." After saying this, the shopkeeper looked at the spirit scroll, which was indeed an ancient scroll, but it was incomplete and lacked sufficient power.

"Boss!" The spirit scroll transformed into wings on its back and flew to the boss. "You've taken a liking to me, haven't you? Let me tell you, I'm his little darling." It then pointed at Jiang Chuan.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Chuan's eyebrows twitched. When did he admit that Ling Juan was his darling?

However, the boss's next words poured cold water on Ling Juan's enthusiasm. The boss smiled and said, "Little guy, you're overestimating yourself. Compared to the Phantom Set, your palm-sized body is still a bit immature."

Jiang Chuan wasn't surprised that he said that. Although the boss had a sharp eye, that was in the real world. However, the spirit scroll belonged to a creature in a closed space, and its value was infinitely higher than the items the boss had just mentioned.

Even though Ling Juan is now physically incomplete, the power of her skills is still unbelievable to Jiang Chuan, considering how simple those moves were.

"What do you think of this scroll?" Jiang Chuan took out a scroll he had occasionally obtained in the enclosed space from the storage device. It was for cultivating the body. Currently, Jiang Chuan mainly focused on cultivating magical artifacts, and he had become somewhat lax in cultivating his body.

The shopkeeper approached, took the scroll, adjusted his glasses with his right hand, and after a long pause, said, "The item is good, but its value remains to be seen."

Jiang Chuan saw the shopkeeper shake his head and knew that he hadn't found anything he liked and wanted to get something better from him. However, when he was stroking the Phantom Set, he felt that the latter was not as valuable as a single hair of this scroll.

"Boss, are you sure you're looking with your eyes?" Jiang Chuan said, giving his stingy boss a hard time.

"Young man, how dare you speak like that? Are all rich kids this arrogant?" The boss's voice grew louder.

Jiang Chuan didn't want to waste words with his boss. He flicked his finger, and a white spiritual energy surged from his fingertip, converging with the body-refining scroll. Then the scroll emitted a bright light, and his body floated in the air, slowly expanding his body. The scroll was inscribed with the four large characters "Peerless Treasure".

The boss, who was in a fit of anger, trembled slightly when he saw the four large characters "Peerless Treasure," because these words only appeared in scrolls that were not favored but turned out to be dark horses.

Clearly, this body-refining scroll taught the boss a lesson.

"Is this the legendary Dark Horse Scroll?" The shopkeeper finished speaking, and seeing Jiang Chuan nod, his angry expression changed, and he walked to the latter's side with a smile, "I was blind, I was blind."

"I need to test the quality of the Phantom Suit. If it's not good, then forget it." Jiang Chuan swept the scroll through the air, dodging the shopkeeper's greedy hands from snatching it.

"Don't worry, the quality is guaranteed." The boss was confident; he saw that Jiang Chuan's petite frame made the Phantom Suit look even bigger.

After he finished speaking, he took off the Phantom Suit and handed it to Jiang Chuan. Then, seeing that Jiang Chuan shook his head, he said, "This place won't work; it's too cramped." Upon hearing this, the shopkeeper assumed that Jiang Chuan was shy and needed a secluded room to change his equipment, and expressed his understanding.

So he led Jiang Chuan to the back of the house, where there was an unused room where Jiang Chuan could change his clothes.

Just as the boss was thinking this, Jiang Chuan, who was halfway there, interrupted him, saying, "This courtyard is just right. I'll test the resilience of the Phantom Suit here."

Upon hearing this, the boss's eyes widened, one big and one small. What kind of expression is that?

The people living in the courtyard are all the boss's wives and concubines. How can you change your clothes in front of them without caring about your image?

“I understand that you’re young and hot-blooded, but you can’t let that hot-bloodedness be vented here. It should be used where it’s needed,” the boss explained.

After listening, Jiang Chuan realized that his boss had misunderstood him; he did not have a penchant for showing off his muscles in front of others.

"It's really no fun being misunderstood by you all this time." Jiang Chuan walked towards the courtyard with some disappointment, only to see the Taotie's enormous body sit upright on the grass in the courtyard with a thought.

During the last battle between Jiangchuan and the Juling clan, it suffered some internal injuries. After this period of recuperation, the injuries have gradually healed.

"Master, you summoned me not so that I would work for you, but rather, you did." The "working" that Taotie mentioned referred to Jiang Chuan using it as a means of transportation.

"Haha..." Jiang Chuan chuckled, responding to Taotie's humorous words with, "No, this time I'll give you a change of pace."

Taotie was puzzled. What did "changing flavors" mean? Did it mean back to manual labor?

It thought this but didn't ask, only seeing Ling Juan chuckling beside it.

"Put it on." Jiang Chuan placed the Phantom Suit on the rhinoceros horn above the Taotie's nostrils.

“Master…” Taotie was a little moved. This was the first time it had felt his care. It choked up a bit. “Master, this is the first time you have given me something. I am so touched.”

After it finished speaking, it put the phantom suit on its head, and it fit perfectly.

Seeing this, Jiang Chuan knew that this would not work; the exact appearance of the Taotie could not be concealed.

“You should wear it,” Jiang Chuan said.

"What?" Taotie was shocked. Putting it on its head was already the limit. What would happen if it were put on its body?
The shopkeeper, who had been standing to the side, finally understood the reason and hurriedly stepped forward, saying, "Young man, it's so big, how could the Phantom Suit possibly withstand it!"

The boss began to worry that the Taotie would tear the Phantom Suit. He had promised to compensate ten times the price for any fake product, and he began to suspect that Jiang Chuan was swindling or cheating.

Jiang Chuan ignored the boss and looked at Taotie, who began to move, extremely stiffly, with his muscles taut as if about to collapse.

Fortunately, the Phantom Suit was phantom enough that it disappeared after it was completely encased on the Taotie.

The appearance of the Taotie changed, and it lost its original masculine nature.

Suddenly she became somewhat soft, her gender appearance changed, she became somewhat alluring, and she lost her original spiritedness.

"Master, what kind of design is this?" Taotie asked in a uniquely female voice.

"Cough cough..." Jiang Chuan coughed twice, then continued, "The effect is good."

As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Chuan handed the body-refining scroll to the shopkeeper. The shopkeeper took it and wiped the sweat from his forehead. Luckily, Jiang Chuan wasn't a bandit, otherwise, given that he was a Taotie, he would definitely have been robbed.

Seeing that it was about time, Jiang Chuan instructed Taotie to rest first and then left the Illusion Pavilion.

Walking down the street, Lingjuan's rumbling stomach reminded Jiang Chuan that it was time to eat.

Just then, a woman was breastfeeding her child next to Jiang Chuan. The milk was so abundant that it almost splashed onto Ling Juan's face, but luckily it dodged in time.

Jiang Chuan walked closer and said, "Um..." He was organizing his thoughts, not knowing how to tell her that Ling Juan was hungry and wanted to nurse. He added that since Ling Juan had plenty of milk, it would be a waste to waste it, so he might as well let Ling Juan have some fun.

The woman was reasonable. She noticed that Jiang Chuan had brought her tiny child to her, and the child's mother wasn't around. She knew the child must be hungry and wanted to nurse, but she didn't have any and could only ask her for help.

"You're breastfeeding, right?" Jiang Chuan glanced at Ling Juan and then nodded.

Ever since Jiang Chuan met Ling Juan, it has been insisting that it wants to nurse. Could it be that breast milk is of some kind to it?
The confusion will be resolved in a moment.

Jiang Chuan had to appear pitiful so as not to break the woman's heart: "Alas, to tell you the truth, the child was still young when its mother left it."

Upon hearing this, the woman noticed that the spirit scroll was a premature baby, and must have died in that incident.

"I understand, I understand. The baby is still young and hasn't had breast milk before." As the woman finished speaking, she saw Jiang Chuan wink at Ling Juan, signaling it to go over now. What were they waiting for?

Lingjuan did not disappoint Jiang Chuan, showing its desire for breast milk. It lay down in front of the woman's soft breasts, initially taking small sips, but gradually increasing its strength.

The woman had been troubled by breast engorgement for a long time, but after encountering Lingjuan, her haggard expression relaxed and her problem was solved.

She looked at Jiang Chuan with some gratitude and said, "It's good to have you guys. I've been having breast engorgement problems for a long time, and I was even planning to see a doctor, but now I don't have to."

After saying that, she looked at the spirit scroll in her arms and found that although it was not big, it had a large capacity for sucking milk.

After absorbing a large amount of milk, the spirit scroll did not swell. This milk was specially processed after entering its body, and it did not experience any discomfort.

"Don't mention it, the baby is still young, just like its mother, it has a big appetite." Jiang Chuan said politely with a smile.

With the replenishment of milk, Ling Juan's strength actually increased from the early stage of Earth Rank to the Great Perfection of the early stage of Earth Rank in less than ten minutes. It only takes one step to reach the middle stage of Earth Rank. No wonder it was so obsessed with milk. The effect was so obvious that Jiang Chuan was somewhat moved.

The woman noticed that Jiang Chuan's eyes were not right. Although the angle of his gaze was directed at Ling Juan's body, that area was also her sensitive spot. Even though she knew that Jiang Chuan was married and had passed away, it was still unnatural for him to stare at her so intently.

Jiang Chuan was not a lecherous man. He was observing the changes in Ling Juan's body. These changes were not noticeable to ordinary people, but in Jiang Chuan's eyes, they shone with golden light, touching the endless Great Dao. Ling Juan was deciphering these obscure and difficult-to-understand laws of the Great Dao. Jiang Chuan wanted to benefit from it and comprehend a little bit. Although his strength was only one step away from the Heavenly Rank, he had been unable to reach it for a long time.

Soon, the woman's eyes met Jiang Chuan's, and he said, "Misunderstanding, misunderstanding, I didn't mean anything by it."

The woman simply smiled at his explanation. With Jiang Chuan's good looks, it was no big deal if he looked.

Lingjuan, who hadn't been able to drink breast milk during this period, was given a full dose of it all at once.

It released the object from its mouth, then walked to Jiang Chuan's side, displaying the playful demeanor of a child wanting a hug. (End of Chapter)
