"Help..."

Liu Ruomei let out a terrified cry. However, she found that the sound was stuck in her throat. She couldn't make a peep.

Have I been ambushed by a lecher? I'm doomed. Liu Ruomei thought in terror.

Soon, she realized someone was kissing her. Her face flushed red with shame, and her whole body went limp. She smelled a familiar scent and felt familiar movements. The person holding her was actually Zhang Bin.

He's nothing short of a Big Bad Egg... Liu Ruomei cried out coquettishly in her heart, her fear vanishing in an instant. Of course, a part of her was also quite envious. Zhang Bin had cultivated another Special Ability, and it was the amazing Invisibility Ability! It made it even easier for him to get up to mischief. Was Heaven really helping him just so he could go around seducing women? How many beauties would fall victim to him?

Finally, Zhang Bin's Invisibility Ability was depleted, and his body reappeared. He wore a wicked grin. What had just happened was his experiment.

The Invisibility Ability really is the best skill for stealing kisses and taking liberties. And it worked perfectly. Liu Ruomei went from resisting to not resisting, to being extremely cooperative. This was, without a doubt, a resounding success.

If Liu Ruomei knew what Zhang Bin was thinking, she would have fainted from anger. If she hadn't recognized the scoundrel as Zhang Bin, why would she have cooperated? Why would she have been so pleased, even enjoying it?

"Big Bad Egg, you're getting more and more presumptuous. At this rate, someone will find out sooner or later. Then you can kneel on the washboard," Liu Ruomei said weakly, nestled in Zhang Bin's arms with a playful pout.

"Who still uses a washboard in this day and age?" Zhang Bin said with a wicked laugh.

"Then kneel on the washing machine," Liu Ruomei retorted, puffing out her cheeks.

Zhang Bin was amused by her words. They promptly dressed and went back to have breakfast, though at this hour, it was almost time for lunch.

After lunch, Zhang Bin took Xiao Fang and Liu Ruolan up to the villa's rooftop to bask in the sun. It was spring, and sunbathing was very comfortable. The rooftop was a great spot for it, with a huge sun umbrella set up over several lounge chairs. The chairs were custom-made, and the largest one could accommodate three people at once. Zhang Bin's favorite pastime at home was to lie on this large lounger in the sun with Liu Ruolan and Xiao Fang. The delightful feeling needs no further description; any man would understand.

"Xiao Bin, keep your hands to yourself..."

"Brother Bin, why are you being naughty again..."

"Xiao Bin, didn't you build a laboratory? You were testing medicinal properties every day for a while. Have you made any progress?"

"What do you mean, no progress? You've both taken the Evergreen Pills I refined, haven't you? Didn't you notice you've become even more beautiful and alluring? Plus, your looks won't fade for the next thirty years," Zhang Bin said, gazing at Xiao Fang and Liu Ruolan with infatuation, his heart pounding.

Both of them had taken the Evergreen Pills. As they were ordinary people, the pills had no effect on their True Qi, offering only the special effects of beautification and detoxification. As a result, they both looked several years younger. Their skin became white and delicate, as flawless as crystal or a peeled, boiled egg. Their hair also became blacker and shinier, flowing like a silken cloud. Their beauty had reached a point that would drive any man to madness and obsession. Fortunately, the company had few male employees, or they would have surely gone mad. Even Zhang Bin found himself captivated by their beauty.

"You've only refined the Evergreen Pill and the Overlord Body Pill? Haven't you developed any other formulas? You said you needed to accumulate merits to grow stronger quickly and advance to higher Realms, right? So, if you developed some formulas to treat terminal illnesses, you should be able to accumulate merits, which would be a great benefit to your cultivation. Moreover, our company could make more money. That way, you'd be able to afford the medicinal herbs you want at next year's auction," Liu Ruolan said coquettishly.

"You truly are my personal Zhuge Liang," Zhang Bin said, giving Liu Ruolan a loud kiss on the cheek in admiration.

The suggestion was a good one. If I developed drugs to treat terminal illnesses, I could accumulate merits quickly, which would make reaching the Seed Condensing Realm much easier. And I certainly have the ability. Now that I've tested the medicinal properties of most plants, I can develop formulas to treat terminal illnesses on Xuanwu Star. It seems I must start cultivating medicinal herbs. Only herbs grown with Spiritual Energy will be effective enough to cure terminal illnesses. I also need to keep testing the medicinal properties of plants. I'll have to send Xiao Qian and Hong Ya to other places to find new species. That way, I can develop more medicines for terminal illnesses. Besides, I promised Madisha I would refine the Revival Pill to save her someday. Rescuing Madisha and adding her to my harem would be a great help to my cultivation and in establishing my own power. After all, Madisha is a brilliant scientist, a Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator, and she even possesses the miraculous Deduction Ability.

"So, you can start developing formulas for terminal illnesses right away?" Liu Ruolan asked, her face full of anticipation.

"Yes. I'll start cultivating more medicinal herbs immediately. Once the herbs mature, medicines for terminal diseases will be available," Zhang Bin said with a smile.

"That's wonderful!" Surprise and delight lit up Liu Ruolan's face.

Xiao Fang was also very happy, her eyes curving into crescents as she smiled. "Then I'll hire some employees right away, specifically to cultivate medicinal herbs. Brother Bin, how many people do you think we'll need?"

"One thousand should do," Zhang Bin said.

"A thousand people?" Xiao Fang and Liu Ruolan's eyes widened. They could hardly believe their ears. After all, they only had a little over a hundred people cultivating herbs now. Recruiting a thousand people all at once... just how many medicinal herbs were they going to cultivate?

"A thousand isn't a lot," Zhang Bin said with a grin. "We're cultivating herbs for treating terminal illnesses, and the demand will be huge. Besides, we have plenty of land—this entire hundred-kilometer area belongs to us. If that's not enough, we can always discuss it with Leader Number Three."
