[Open the door] Li Changzhou said.

The three were taken aback for a moment.

"Isn't it Weng Liang?" Jiang Xiaoyue asked in confusion.

"God?" Xian'er was puzzled.

[Open the door] Li Changzhou didn't explain.

Since he said so, the three naturally wouldn't object. Xu Ni went to open the door, while Xian'er held a tree branch in one hand and clutched a Fire Spirit Talisman in her sleeve with the other.

So far, the God hasn't asked her to do anything, except occasionally saying that killing and robbing treasures is cultivation.

She wasn't sure if this time opening the door was a test for her from Li Changzhou.

The door opened, revealing a woman in a pale yellow magic robe.

Her figure was graceful, and her face was veiled with a top-grade magic artifact, like a thin layer of mist.

"You are—" Xu Ni probed.

"The senior sent me," Shui Zhongyue said softly.

"Oh, please come in!" Xu Ni quickly stepped aside.

The 'senior' they mentioned was not the same person at all.

As soon as Shui Zhongyue entered, Chang'e saw the three girls, especially Xian'er with a tree branch tucked in her waist, who was extraordinarily beautiful.

[Your Majesty, don't forget you're a family man.] She didn't hide it and spoke to Li Changzhou in front of the four of them.

"Hmm?" The three of them, Xian'er, Jiang Xiaoyue, and Xu Ni, were surprised.

At the same time, their hearts fluttered, as the voice was as enchanting as the moonlight.

If she said a few more words, it would surely make people involuntarily immerse themselves, like admiring the moon by the lakeside, being gently blown by the breeze.

[I understand] Li Changzhou acknowledged this slightly irreverent statement.

"God?" Xian'er had a lot of questions popping up in her mind.

Li Changzhou didn't speak, and Chang'e also fell silent.

If there was only one person present, they might have spoken more, but with both of them there, they had nothing to say.

It wasn't just that they found each other disagreeable, but also to avoid suspicion—Chang'e was stunningly beautiful, and Li Changzhou was handsome and clear-cut; the two of them obviously couldn't have any interactions.

After the two seniors left, in the Moon Viewing Tower, in the clear light room, the four observed each other.

Xian'er put away the Fire Spirit Talisman, judging from the previous attitude of the God, they shouldn't be enemies.

"Who are you?" Xu Ni asked again.

"Are you planning to explore?" Shui Zhongyue countered.

The three exchanged glances, and Xu Ni continued speaking, "Yes, we're planning on it."

"I know a water area that hasn't been occupied by cultivators, nor does it have particularly powerful water demons, and it's rich in resources."

Xu Ni's heart leapt with joy, but she asked cautiously, "Why are you helping us, fellow Daoist?"

"Mission." Shui Zhongyue replied lightly.

"Mission?"

No matter how Xu Ni inquired, Shui Zhongyue didn't answer, only waiting for them to decide whether to follow her to that water area.

"Xian'er, why don't you ask the senior?" Xu Ni whispered to Xian'er.

Xian'er held the branch, "God?"

[My suggestion is to kill her; she has treasures on her that will guarantee you great benefits]

"..."

Xian'er pondered for a moment and said, "Trust her!"

It was the God who had them open the door.

"In that case, tomorrow at noon, gather by the water." With that, Shui Zhongyue left.

The three whispered among themselves, and because they were so tired, they rested early.

The next morning, Xu Ni and Jiang Xiaoyue went out to purchase supplies, while Xian'er stayed in the guest room, using materials bought yesterday to draw some Water Avoidance Talismans, Golden Light Talismans, and Fire Spirit Talismans.

Xu Ni and Jiang Xiaoyue returned empty-handed.

Xian'er was initially puzzled, but then quickly understood, exclaiming, "You bought a Storage Bag?"

"We did!" Xu Ni boasted, patting her slender waist, where a grey, inconspicuous bag was hanging.

Jiang Xiaoyue laughed, "Maybe because recently many cultivators have died, the price for Storage Bags has decreased, only costing 85 Spirit Stones."

They saved a full 15 stones, and farming for a year only yields five Spirit Stones.

Xu Ni took off the Storage Bag and tossed it on the table, "This is for the three of us. Usually, it should be with the one with the highest cultivation level, and only when purchasing supplies or trading should it be given to me. Xian'er, you keep it first."

"This doesn't seem right." Even as Xian'er said this, she had already taken the Storage Bag in her hands.

"Try it!" Xu Ni said excitedly.

A low-level Storage Bag doesn't have a master-recognition function; it can be used once taken.

As Xian'er infused it with spiritual power, she saw a cubic-sized space inside.

Clothing, food, two stacks of talisman paper, three bottles of talismanic ink, a book titled "First Rank Talisman Compendium," three jade bottles, a lotus leaf, and six peculiarly shaped stone pillars were stored within.

"The lotus leaf is a boat," Jiang Xiaoyue explained, "and the stone pillars are for a formation. Once we reach the location, placing the pillars according to position can activate the formation."

"This is the lowest level formation set, costing sixty Spirit Stones. Array Masters really make money!" Xu Ni couldn't help but comment.

Xian'er took the items out and put them back, having a lot of fun with it.

Jiang Xiaoyue continued, "We also bought three bottles of Qi Nourishing Pills, which cost thirty Spirit Stones; Detoxification Pills, Water Avoidance Talismans, and other supplies cost ten Spirit Stones; talismanic ink, talismanic book, and paper cost twenty Spirit Stones, and other miscellaneous living expenses were paid in gold, which doesn't matter."

"The money's gone," Xu Ni spread her hands, "If we fail this time, the three of us will have to go back to farming and start over."

Xian'er asked in confusion, "Xiaoyue, what about your Pill Furnace and Elixir recipe?"

"The Elixir recipe is too expensive, and the Pill Furnace even more so," Jiang Xiaoyue replied with a smile, "Exploring requires fighting, it's not the time to buy those yet."

Xian'er was silent for a while: "The lady-in-law once scolded me, saying I procrastinate, and that some things, if dragged on, will never be done.

"Even though she was scolding me, I've always remembered it. Right now we need to fight, and without buying a Pill Furnace and Elixir recipe, there will always be reasons not to buy them in the future. Xiaoyue, you've always considered us, but it might mean you'll never refine elixirs in your lifetime."
