In recent years, Bai Lian Fairy has been visiting the Rain Listening Pavilion less and less.

Shen Xuan can understand this.

Bai Lian Fairy is an ambitious person.

With the Taiyin Corpse Beast Technique Shen Xuan gifted her, her status in the Beast Taming Zhou Family has skyrocketed.

Previously, because she was a female cultivator, her combat power was slightly inferior.

After refining the Strong Water Ape Corpse Beast, she made up for this shortcoming.

Moreover, controlling the Taiyin Corpse Beast Fluid formula helped her ascend to the position of Chief Elder of the Zhou Family.

These years, Bai Lian Fairy has been incredibly busy in her role as Chief Elder.

She's been winning over other Chief Elders and bestowing favors to promote potential family members.

She's saved quite a bit of money privately.

Shen Xuan estimates that in a few years, Bai Lian Fairy will also breakthrough to the Middle Stage of Foundation Establishment.

Her aptitude isn't very good.

Various Foundation Establishment Spiritual Objects and Heart-Protecting Pills need to be fully prepared.

Among wealth, companionship, laws, and land, what Bai Lian Fairy lacks most is Spirit Stones.

Fortunately, she's latched onto Shen Xuan's leg.

For the past ten years, she's been riding the waves in Cyan Yang Prefecture, making a name for herself.

Even the Patriarch of the Zhou Family no longer mentions her marriage alliances.

Probably because they don't want to marry her off.

After all, Bai Lian Fairy, who possesses the Taiyin Corpse Beast Fluid formula and Foundation Establishment Corpse Beast, would be hard to receive satisfactory returns from marrying off.

Better to keep her within the clan.

Bai Lian Fairy beamed with joy: "Shen Lang, this time, we'll definitely make a big profit! My family's two old men told Bai Lian, as long as..."

"Stop!"

Shen Xuan waved his hand.

"If it's Corpse Refining Gold Powder, I currently have insufficient amounts to sell to the Zhou Family."

Shen Xuan directly exposed Bai Lian Fairy's little thoughts.

"Shen Lang, you have a way, don't you?"

Bai Lian Fairy playfully pleaded.

She hugged Shen Xuan's arm and started to shake it.

"How many Spirit Medicines can the Zhou Family gather?"

"Without Spirit Medicines, I can't do anything."

Bai Lian Fairy blinked her charming eyes.

"Most of the Spirit Medicines in Cyan Yang Prefecture have been almost completely purchased by Bai Lian."

"If more are needed, we'd have to go to nearby provinces."

"But Bai Lian doesn't dare to go to nearby provinces due to the Dao Demon War."

This situation is something Shen Xuan expected.

He had prepared some Corpse Refining Gold Powder.

But he, himself, has three Corpse Beasts.

If he wants to refine them into Golden Corpse Beasts, it would take at least three to five years.

The Corpse Refining Gold Powder he prepared is barely enough for his own use.

Additionally, Shen Xuan needs to store some.

Once he breaks through to the Middle Stage of Foundation Establishment, his Divine Soul, Divine Sense, and Spiritual Power will greatly increase, and he will certainly need to refine newer and stronger Corpse Beasts.

He can give one year's worth of Corpse Refining Gold Powder to Bai Lian Fairy for free, which is quite considerate of past ties.

This Corpse Refining Gold Powder requires Spirit Medicines worth three thousand Spirit Stones.

Not even counting his labor costs.

Sometimes, it's not just about Spirit Stones.

The Corpse Refining Gold Powder formula includes some precious Spirit Medicines that are controlled by the Sect, with very limited amounts circulating in the market.

The primary and secondary materials in the Purifying Foundation Pill are even harder to find in the market.

Cultivation Spiritual Objects, the higher their grade and better their effect, the harder they are to purchase in the market.

"Really no way? Shen Lang, my Strong Water Ape is about to stop eating!"

"There's always a way!"

Shen Xuan pondered and said: "The Qian Family in Celestial City Mansion is quite resourceful, aren't they?"

Bai Lian's eyes lit up.

Then they dimmed again.

"Shen Lang, those Spirit Medicines are very precious. The Qian Family grudgingly sells them."

"Unless Shen Lang is willing to use the Thunder Talisman..."

"There are no Thunder Talismans!"

Shen Xuan shattered Bai Lian Fairy's hopes.

"All the Thunder Talismans I made have been handed to Sect Brother He Zhengming!"

Actually, only ordinary Thunder Talismans were handed over.

The premium Thunder Talismans are always kept for his own use.

This is a weapon against Demon Cultivators that Shen Xuan is equally reluctant to trade.

Bai Lian Fairy fretfully gathered her bangs, her autumn-water-like eyes full of plea.

"There's no Thunder Talismans. But there are some Poison Talismans."

Shen Xuan took out some newly developed Pufferfish Poison Talismans.

In addition to previously made Silver Hook Snake Poison Talismans and Stonefish Poison Talismans.

He only pulled out ordinary Poison Talismans.

The premium Poison Talismans are similarly kept for himself.

Bai Lian Fairy's gaze was attracted to the Pufferfish Poison Talisman.

She knew the other two types of Poison Talismans.

But didn't recognize the Pufferfish Poison Talisman.

"What kind of poison is this talisman?"

"Blue-Ringed Octopus."

"Ah!"

Bai Lian Fairy, born of a Beast Taming Clan and being a Water Cultivator, surely knows the terror of Blue-Ringed Octopus.

"Is this very poisonous?"

"Very poisonous."

Shen Xuan calmly said: "For a cultivator like you in the Early Stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm, if poisoned, without top-quality Antitoxic Pills, you'd lose combat capability within a hundred breaths, and die within half a stick of incense."

"Ah!"

Bai Lian Fairy was startled, stepping back two paces.

"Is it that poisonous?"

"Indeed very poisonous. It's the most poisonous I've seen among Water Demons."

"Shen Lang, is there an antidote?"

"That's easy to say!"

Shen Xuan asked back: "Have you seen a special antidote for Blue-Ringed Octopus poison?"

Bai Lian Fairy shook her head.

Then her eyes lit up.

"Shen Lang, shouldn't Bai Lian take some Poison Talismans and have the Qian Family send someone to negotiate?"

Bai Lian Fairy, being as sharp as ice and snow, quickly guessed Shen Xuan's thoughts.

"Take ten pieces each of the three types of Poison Talismans."

Shen Xuan pointed out thirty Poison Talismans, put them into an empty Storage Pouch, and handed them to Bai Lian Fairy.

"Let the Qian Family make an offer first, don't let them get it too cheaply!"

Shen Xuan had long seen that Bai Lian Fairy is storing Spirit Stones and collecting Spiritual objects to break through to the Middle Stage of Foundation Establishment.

Her aptitude is slightly lacking.

But with the support of the Zhou Family's patriarch in the Late Stage of Foundation Establishment, the breakthrough of small realms, with proper preparation, is quite hopeful.

This is similar to Lv Zhengying's breakthrough.

"Good! Shen Lang, just wait for Bai Lian's good news!"

Bai Lian Fairy was radiant, her smile charming.

Turning around, she intended to leave.

"Wait, Bai Lian, aren't you forgetting something in such a hurry?"

"Forgetting something?"

Bai Lian Fairy was puzzled.

Shen Xuan was exasperated.

He slapped her on her pert rear.

With a "pop" sound.

Fast and accurate.

Made Immortal Bailian involuntarily bounce up.

She covered her mouth with her hand, looking astonished.

Her mind was still pondering over the transaction with the Qian Family for poison talismans and spiritual medicine.

"Shen Lang?"

Seeing Shen Xuan undressing.

It was then that Immortal Bailian realized, blushing, her voice becoming coy.

"Shen Lang, I'm just busy helping you buy medicine!"

"Short on this bit of time?"

Shen Xuan gave her an annoyed look.

A body, both beautiful and well-defined, appeared in front of Immortal Bailian's eyes.

Immortal Bailian took a few glances, her cheeks instantly turning rosy.

Her face felt warm, as if it was burning.

Her heartbeat accelerated.

"Only two months have passed and Shen Lang seems to have become stronger!"

Immortal Bailian slowly untied her dress.

Shen Xuan couldn't wait.

Two months without release, he had been holding back for too long.

Su Xue'Er was just an appetizer.

Immortal Bailian was the main course.

"Troublesome!"

Shen Xuan injected a bit of spiritual power into his fingers and directly stripped Immortal Bailian of her dress.

"Ah, Shen Lang, don't!"

A beautiful, white as snow, tender as a flower body stood gracefully.

"Come!"

Two silhouettes fell onto the big bed in the bedroom.

Passion surged.

The big bed shook violently.

Soul-stirring, intoxicating gasps made Shen Xuan feel invigorated.

Galloping like a horse on a journey.

Until exhaustion set in.

...

In the morning.

Sun high in the sky.

Immortal Bailian lay tired on the bed, eyes closed, with no intention of getting up.

Shen Xuan felt delighted.

Last night, he tormented Immortal Bailian several times.

Fully relaxed, body and mind at ease.

Seeing Immortal Bailian still indulging in sleep.

Shen Xuan got up alone, stepping out of the bedroom.

In the dining hall.

Su Xue'Er had already prepared breakfast.

Propped on her cheek, she gazed listlessly at the spiritual food on the table.

It was a full three jin of Tier Two Middle Grade Demon Beast meat.

She was only at the Middle Stage of Qi Cultivation, didn't need to eat.

"Husband's appetite is growing bigger and bigger!"

Su Xue'Er could feel that Shen Xuan's physical strength was increasing.

Even his appetite had grown significantly larger than before.

Moreover, it required more precious sustenance.

Now, the main course for each meal was three jin of Tier Two Middle Grade Demon Beast meat.

This left Su Xue'Er shocked.

"Xue'Er, what are you thinking?"

When Shen Xuan entered, Su Xue'Er did not notice at all.

"Ah! Husband, you're done!"

Su Xue'Er, startled, blurted out.

"Done with what?"

Su Xue'Er's cheeks turned red.

She realized she had said something wrong.

Luckily, Shen Xuan did not mind.

He started to feast.

After breakfast, he still had to do morning exercises.

Cultivation is a process of long-term accumulation, not a day could be wasted.

Su Xue'Er cast a curious glance.

"Where's Zhou Bailian, is she having breakfast at our place?"

Shen Xuan laughed and said: "Did you prepare something for her?"

"No! Zhou Bailian is a Foundation Establishment Cultivator, it doesn't matter if she doesn't eat for a few days."

"Still, prepare a little for her. Make some spirit rice porridge with this demon beast meat for her."

"If she asks for me, tell her I'm cultivating in the practice room, let her go back first."

After breakfast, Shen Xuan went into the practice room.

He needed to seize the time to cultivate, and break through to the Middle Stage of Foundation Establishment as soon as possible.

...

After Immortal Bailian woke up, she found Su Xue'Er and ate two big bowls of spirit rice demon beast meat porridge.

Patted her belly, still not satisfied.

"Little girl, is it all gone?"

Su Xue'Er opened the porridge pot to show Immortal Bailian.

Still muttering: "Who knew you could eat so much!"

"People say that Foundation Establishment Cultivators don't eat spirit rice porridge!"

"Oh, little girl got angry!"

Immortal Bailian said playfully.

"I helped you fulfill your concubine duties, ate a few bowls of spirit rice porridge, and you still have the nerve to be angry?"

"If it weren't for your inadequacy, would I be so exhausted?"

Su Xue'Er blushed deeply.

Really wanted to retort.

But didn't dare to go too far.

After all, the other was a Foundation Establishment Cultivator.

Her status was not something a Qi Cultivation concubine could compare to.

After thinking for a long time, she squeezed out a sentence: "It's not like I invited you!"

"Not you!"

Immortal Bailian said with a smile: "It was your husband who called me over with a communication talisman."

"If you were competent, would your husband be so infatuated with me, longing and pining for me?"

"You're speaking nonsense! Husband is not!"

"Is!"

"Is not!"

"Does Immortal Bailian not have a sense for it?"

Immortal Bailian's words left Su Xue'Er speechless.

Her mood instantly became joyous.

Last night, she was tormented by Shen Xuan a few times, and he mocked her inadequacy.

Originally, she had accumulated a lot of frustration, which was now entirely cleared.

"Shen Xuan, all you know is to bully me!"

"Make your little concubine furious!"

"So you too shall not have peace!"

In Su Xue'Er's resentful and helpless gaze, Immortal Bailian left the Rain Listening Pavilion triumphantly.

She hurried back to the Valley of Beasts, contacting the people of the Celestial City Mansion Qian Family to discuss the transaction of poison talismans with spiritual medicine.

"Shen Xuan, wait for me! When I break through to the Middle Stage of Foundation Establishment, I'll definitely exhaust you, render you impotent, and make you beg for mercy!"

In Immortal Bailian's heart, a strong fighting spirit ignited.
