My filial piety will never change

Zhao Yuchen looked back and saw the graceful Gongsun Ningyu slowly walking towards him.

She was wearing the same military uniform as usual today. Her steps were light and her landings were steady, looking extremely heroic.

The two sides' eyes met, and Gongsun Ningyu rarely dodged and looked at the disciples busy outside.

Zhao Yuchen didn't notice this detail and said with his usual playful smile, "Good morning, Master. Did you sleep well last night?"

Recalling the scene of last night in her mind, Gongsun Ningyu felt her body getting hot again. Although the itchiness had eased somewhat, it was still far less than the relief after the spiritual veins were adjusted. The two were completely on a different level.

She said calmly, "Very good."

Chapter 17: Disciple's Completion Requirements

Seeing that she was still as cold as ever, Zhao Yuchen changed the subject: "Has Second Master left yet? I don't think Hall Master Sophie is here either."

According to yesterday's plan, Shengying will lead the team to explore nearby forces, primarily to reveal a piece of news: Yin Yang Valley has been inhabited by a supremely skilled healer, Zhao Yuchen. It was with his help that the three valley masters recovered from their injuries and achieved breakthroughs in their cultivation. Regarding this man's origins, it's said he was an orphan who unexpectedly inherited the legacy of Zhang Ji, a thousand-year-old True Immortal-level healer.

Zhang Ji was hailed as one of the ten greatest doctors in the history of Yuxuan Continent, and had once treated the Son of God in the Holy Land. Unfortunately, he never had a disciple, nor did he start a family, and was eventually killed by his enemies, leaving a tragic end.

Rumors have long circulated that Zhang Ji's cave contains his lifelong learning, yet no one has ever found it. Zhao Yuchen is one of the lucky few who has obtained Zhang Ji's secret and unique skill, the "Spiritual Vessel Health Care."

After receiving the inheritance, he encountered a crisis and was rescued by three valley masters and brought back. To express his gratitude to the three valley masters, he became their disciple and regulated their spiritual veins in times of crisis, which transformed them and dramatically increased their cultivation.

Next, this young genius doctor Zhao Yuchen plans to use Yin Yang Valley as a base to practice medicine and benefit the people, and sincerely invites all monks to come and experience it.

The above story frightened not only outsiders but even the disciples themselves. They all said frankly that it was no wonder that the three Valley Masters valued Junior Brother Zhao so much, because he had such a great background.

Gongsun Ningyu calculated the time and said, "It's time for us to set off."

Her and Zhao Yuchen's mission today was to go to Yuquan Market and post hype information on the bulletin board there.

Originally, Zhao Yuchen didn't have to go, but he'd been staying in Yinyang Valley for the past few days and thought it was time to go out and see some new scenery. So he asked to go with Gongsun Ningyu today, and by the way, do some research for the future market.

Zhao Yuchen looked around and asked, "Where's the Third Master?"

Although Yin Yang Valley is currently in its heyday, one of the three masters must still stay behind to take charge and they cannot all leave.

"Maybe he's been sleeping in. Come up." Gongsun Ningyu took out a banana leaf three meters long and two meters wide and stood on it first.

This is her flying device.

Normally, cultivators who wanted to activate even the lowest-level flying magical instruments had to reach at least the seventh level of Qi Refining. Therefore, Zhao Yuchen was not yet qualified to use or operate them.

Banana leaves are suspended close to the ground.

Zhao Yuchen stepped on it carefully. His feet felt soft and a little shaky. He subconsciously hugged Gongsun Ningyu's waist.

So soft and fragrant.

Gongsun Ningyu's heart trembled, and she turned her head and stared at him, "What are you doing?"

Zhao Yuchen wanted to let go of her hand, but then he thought, he is of such great help to Yin Yang Valley now, and since he is young and has low cultivation, he should let her realize that she should protect him.

Otherwise, you will always have a bitter and resentful expression on your face, and you will lose all your mood.

So he hugged her tighter, "Master, please don't laugh at me. I'm a little afraid of heights and need some time to get used to it. Before then, this is the only way I can feel a little safe."

Gongsun Ningyu wanted to scold him, but feeling the little hand on her belly and the skin on her back, she couldn't feel any hatred.

"You can't become a true cultivator like this. You have to adapt as soon as possible!" She gave him a 'lesson' with the aloof attitude of a master, and then let him hold her like this and slowly take off.

Reaching a height of more than a hundred meters, Gongsun Ningyu mobilized the protective spiritual energy to block the wind and dust, and also enveloped Zhao Yuchen.

Zhao Yuchen looked down and saw the rolling mountains and scattered clouds. Instead of being afraid, he felt a sense of freedom and joy.

Not to mention that he is holding an icy beauty in his arms, so time travel is not a bad thing.

His height only reached Gongsun Ningyu's shoulders. While feeling emotional, he buried his face between Gongsun Ningyu's shoulders and took a deep breath of her fragrance.

Ah~wonderful!

"What are you doing again?" Gongsun Ningyu felt a tingling sensation on her back, and she straightened her body and asked.

Zhao Yuchen said weakly, "It's too high up here. I'm scared and don't dare to look."

"Then why do you have to put your face against my back? Why not just close your eyes?"

"For some reason, as long as I touch Master's body, I am not so afraid anymore."

If it were a few days ago, Zhao Yuchen would definitely be kicked away by her if he said that, but now when she heard him say that, she thought in her heart: It’s not a bad thing to let him rely on herself actively. At least it will give him more advantages when competing with his two junior sisters in the future.

The place where their bodies touched gradually felt warm. Gongsun Ningyu's heart fluttered, and she said calmly, "Master will naturally give you absolute protection, but is there anything you should do?"

Zhao Yuchen asked: "For example?"

"For example, use your spiritual vein skills to continue to assist my master and enhance my strength!"

Gongsun Ningyu's eyes narrowed slightly, as if to emphasize that she was only doing this to improve her cultivation.

Zhao Yuchen said without hesitation: "As long as Master needs you, I am always ready to serve you. I promise to satisfy...oh no, meet your requirements."

After receiving his affirmative answer, it was as if the depression in my body was instantly released, and his tone became a little warmer. "Then let's do it once after we get back."

"No problem at all!"

Zhao Yuchen was naturally very interested in it, as it could increase his filial piety and cultivation while also playing a naughty trick on her, so he agreed immediately.

Gongsun Ningyu was also in a good mood and her flying speed increased a bit.

After flying for half an hour, the master and disciple slowly landed at the flight landing area of ​​Yuquan Market.

Wherever you look, you can see monks from all directions coming and going, and all kinds of vendors setting up stalls and selling their wares on the main road.

"Wow, it's so lively!"

This was the first time Zhao Yuchen had seen so many people since traveling to this world.

Gongsun Ningyu had been hanging around here for years, so she was no longer surprised. She said, "Put on your hat. Don't let others see your appearance for the time being."

She also covered her face with a veil to avoid being recognized as the Grand Master of Yin Yang Valley who has been in the limelight these days.

After all, he had killed a lot of people before, and there was no guarantee that his enemies would recognize him, so it was better to have less trouble than more.

Gongsun Ningyu led him into the main road and pointed to the tallest building in the center. "That's Xiaoyaofang, the heart of the entire market. Whether you want to publish information or buy a store here in the future, you must deal with them."

All the land within the Yuquan Market belongs to Xiaoyao Urban Management, and Xiaoyaofang is their management department stationed here.

This was not the first time Zhao Yuchen had heard of Xiaoyao City, and he had more or less known some information about it these days.

This city is nine hundred miles away from Yuquan Market and is jointly governed by three major sects, namely Lingmu Sect, Guimu Mountain and Yuzi Sect.

They take Xiaoyao City as the core, encompassing almost all industries and radiating to the surrounding area for more than a thousand miles. Xiaoyaofang branches have been set up in almost all markets. It can be said that they make a fortune every day and can make money even if they lie down.

Chapter 18 If you are lucky, you can have more disciples

The three major sects weren't always peaceful. Due to their diverse operations and distinct areas of responsibility, disputes often arose among the upper, middle, and lower levels. However, for the greater good, their respective leaders would maintain stability to prevent the structure from collapsing, otherwise, no one would even have a chance to drink the soup.

Although Yin Yang Valley was gaining some popularity, it was only among its peers. There wasn't even a single cultivator at the Return to Void Realm within the valley. Even the local tyrants in Yuquan Market, like the Drunken Green Gang, could easily crush them, let alone the sects in Xiaoyao City.

Therefore, the task of development is still long and arduous.

Cross the main street and cut into the side street, and you will see Xiaoyaofang right in front of you.

Xiaoyaofang is a nine-story building. The square in front of the building is filled with animal carts and the monks coming and going are as numerous as fish.

Entering the building, you'll find a large lobby, about ten meters long and wide. The east wall is lined with a bulletin board, the west wall with a task bar. To the north is the office area, and to the south are the stairs leading to the second floor.

Except for the commission counter, almost every area was crowded with people.

It wasn't this lively before yesterday, but because there were no tasks to do after midnight, everyone was forced to squeeze into the same time period.

Gongsun Ningyu led Zhao Yuchen through the lobby and came to the business area in the north.

There is a row of small counters here, and each counter has staff to provide commission-related services.

Many tasks are assigned from Xiaoyao City, and there are not many people at these commission counters.

Gongsun Ningyu picked one at random and walked to the front of the stage.

The receptionist was a pretty young girl with a sweet smile. "Hello, how can I help you?"

Gongsun Ningyu said, "I have a message I want to post on the bulletin board. How many spirit stones does it cost?"

If there is any way to spread Zhao Yuchen's gimmick faster, then the bulletin board of Xiaoyaofang is the best place.

As long as the information is posted on the bulletin board, it is guaranteed that all the cultivators within a radius of hundreds of miles will know his identity as the successor of "Zhang Ji".

This can be understood as the most primitive advertising in the world.

Since it is an advertisement, you must pay a certain amount of advertising fees.

"Well, the price depends on the presentation method, location, and duration of the content. If it's text, we have more eye-catching lighting and visual effects than traditional paper pasting. The display is divided into four zones: Heaven, Earth, Dark, and Yellow, with the Heaven zone being the most prominent and the Yellow zone being the most corner. The display period starts at one day, and the price increases with the number of days. Xiaoyaofang is having a promotion right now; buy a ten-day announcement display and get an extra day."

Humans always like to compromise, and Gongsun Ningyu is no exception. She said, "Use paper. Xuanqu, hang it for ten days."

Although she had decided to launch a health-care business, she had no experience in it, not even in business. She hesitated to invest too much until she saw real results. She needed to keep some capital for emergencies. This was also what everyone had discussed last night.

The girl counted on her fingers and said, "It depends on your request. You need to pay 8,000 low-grade spirit stones, 800 medium-grade spirit stones, or 80 high-grade spirit stones."

Gongsun Ningyu gasped. When she accepted missions before, the highest reward was only a few dozen low-grade spirit stones. Most of the time, it was only a dozen or twenty.

Even if they had looted the assets of other factions yesterday, the total would have only been over 30,000 low-grade spirit stones. But for just a small advertisement, they were asking for 8,000 low-grade spirit stones.

She couldn't help but look at Zhao Yuchen, and the latter nodded, indicating that the price was reasonable.

"Okay, here you go!"

Gongsun Ningyu took out several storage bags for spirit stones from her waist, and the middle and low-grade ones made up the number.

The girl counted the spirit stones and, after confirming they were correct, handed Gongsun Ningyu the text to be published and asked her to register it.

The formalities were completed quickly. The other party said that the publication would start at 4:15 am tonight, and including the extra day, it would be published for a total of eleven days.

The two left the counter, and Gongsun Ningyu remained silent.

Zhao Yuchen said slowly: "Master, doing business is like fishing. You must first pay a certain amount of bait cost before you can hook the fish."

Gongsun Ningyu disagreed and said calmly, "You don't look like you've ever been a boss."

Zhao Yuchen laughed and said, "Even if you haven't eaten pork, you've seen a pig run. Ha! Let's go see how a pig runs."

He trotted over to the bulletin board, where a large group of people had gathered. With his small stature, he couldn't see what was on the bulletin board at all.

Gongsun Ningyu came up behind him, grabbed his collar, and led him into the crowd to the front row.

There were messages posted on the bulletin board, including news from various places, the latest rule adjustments of Xiaoyaofang, and information about props for sale.

The most eye-catching thing was the light-displayed message in the center of the Tianzi area. It was made of specially made spiritual paper, and each word emitted a brilliant light.

It read: The Master of Guimu Mountain cordially invites spiritual healers from all over to attend a conference on the third day of the fourth lunar month. This conference will select the most skilled spiritual healer to serve as a mentor to the Master's daughter, Gui Yuzhen. The chosen one will receive a generous reward. Interested parties can register at any Xiaoyaofang entrustment counter.

Additional conditions: Participants’ cultivation must reach at least the ninth level of the Spirit Transformation Realm.

Although there were quite a few people at the Ninth Level of the Spiritual Transformation Realm within Xiaoyao City's jurisdiction, it was quite rare to find one specifically in the profession of Spiritual Medicine. By then, gathering ten of them would be considered a wealth of talent.

Zhao Yuchen was tempted. Guimu Mountain was one of the three major forces in Xiaoyao City and was very powerful. If he could take this opportunity to establish some relationship with it, it would be beneficial to the development of Yinyang Valley!

Gongsun Ningyu saw what he was thinking and said, "Your cultivation is only at the first level of Qi Refining. There is only one month until the third day of April. Even if you grow two more Dantians, you won't be able to reach the ninth level of Spirit Transformation before then."

Zhao Yuchen said, "Master, you are wrong. Rules are dead, but people are alive. If the people of Guimu Mountain knew that regulating the spirit veins is more advanced than any spiritual medicine method, and the actual effect is not inferior to those of those who have reached the ninth level of the Divine Transformation Realm, perhaps you can even have more disciples!"

There was one more thing he didn't say, which was that he had the filial piety system on his side, and if he worked hard, it might not be impossible for him to reach the ninth level of the Spirit Transformation within a month.

Gongsun Ningyu pondered for a moment and said, "Strange Tomb Mountain isn't easy to deal with. Perhaps they're using this spiritual doctor as a stepping stone."

Zhao Yuchen was slightly stunned. With his current strength, it was indeed not easy to deal with a force of that level and take advantage of him. So he followed Gongsun Ningyu's words and said, "Master is indeed thoughtful. Let's take a long-term view on this matter. Let's start with the health care business."

"Tsk tsk, the evil woman has killed again. This time she killed an elder of the Lingmu Sect who is in the Return to Void Realm. She is truly lawless!"

Just as the master and disciple were about to leave, they suddenly heard a strong man standing in front of a notice, exclaiming and shaking his head.

Chapter 19: Continue to hold the fragrant master

Both the master and the disciple looked at the notice. It was a bounty order, also occupying the sky area, and using light to indicate people.

The painting shows a masked woman wearing a black tight-fitting outfit, with thick eyebrows and long hair, revealing only a pair of beautiful eyes full of spirit. Even though it is just a portrait, one can feel the sharpness projected from her eyes.

Looking at the reward amount again, Zhao Yuchen was also greatly surprised - if he brought her here, no matter whether she was dead or alive, he would get 300,000 high-grade spirit stones, which could be exchanged for medium or low-grade spirit stones.

Even providing clues to his whereabouts would earn you a few thousand high-grade spirit stones. If the clues could help Lingmu Sect capture him, there would be a reward of 100,000 high-grade spirit stones.
