Supreme Emperor of Mist

Chapter 64: Essence Transformation Pill (3)

"Let's call it a day. Fellow disciple Shixin will pack our belongings. Jia-Jia and Qing Yun will go and restock our herb supplies. I will go to the Elder's office to do a quick settlement." Qin Chan appointed a few tasks to everyone, including herself.

But then, she noticed that someone amongst them was not in her mood for the entire morning.

"What's wrong with you, Jia-Jia?" Qin Chan approached Hu Jia and checked on her sister-in-law.

"Of course it's because her lovely husband is not a..." the other male disciple was going to interrupt. Luckily, Li Shixin managed to stop him before he finished his sentence. The two wrestled as they went further away from Hu Jia and Qin Chan.

"Did Lan-Er not look for you recently?" Qin Chan asked.

"Maybe he's busy..." Hu Jia lowered her head as she replied. The situation was somewhat embarrassing for Hu Jia to answer.

"Did some vixen in the Dan-Xin Dwelling flirt with him? Let's go there later and check on him!" Qin Chan tightened her fist until a cracking sound is heard.

"We shouldn't disturb him. He might be too busy, that's all..." Hu Jia pulled Qin Chan's sleeve to stop things from escalating further down the road. But then, Lu Qing Yun came.

"I think you can be at ease if that's what you're worried about," her word saved Qin Lan from a misunderstanding between Hu Jia and Qin Chan about their love life.

"Come here, Qing Yun!" Qin Chan grabbed Lu Qing Yun's wrist and pulled the girls into a secluded corner.

"Did Qin Lan has any other flings except for Jia-Jia?" Qin Chan asked.

"Hehe... Don't worry. I've hardly seen our young master flirting around with the maidens. Even if they're sending themselves into his embrace, it meant nothing for him." what Lu Qing Yun said made them view Qin Lan in a much better light.

"Then..." Qin Chan's expression changed.

"Then what, elder sister?" Hu Jia asked. Shouldn't Qin Chan be happy about it when such a positive review came from someone as close as a sister to them?

"That means the elder brother and younger brother are equally stupid! Lan-Er is luckier because grandfather managed to arrange everything between our Qin and Hu families. But things were different for old Fan!" Qin Chan went hysterical when it comes to this topic.

"What's wrong with the eldest brother-in-law?" Hu Jia is curious about Qin Chan's reaction.

"That idiot has so many options for his marriage, but he had to just choose someone a few leagues above him! Do you know who he's in love with?" Qin Chan said.

"Who?" Hu Jia and Lu Qing Yun asked the same question together.

"Luo Yunxi, the little princess of eighth elder Luo Hao!"

"Good news, fellow disciple Qin Lan! There's a piece of good news!" Li Wei came into Qin Lan's room without knocking as he was in a rush.

As he did not come inside this morning, it was only now that Li Wei noticed the reason behind the fragrance leaking out of Qin Lan's room. Placed nearby the window is few temporary makeshift pots with a stalk of emerald grass.

Their color was striking as an emerald gemstone, yet with a hint of milky white in the center. From afar, it was a gemstone. While from close proximity, it looked like a handcrafted blade made from a piece of jade.

"Fellow disciple, have a sip of tea first before you speak." Qin Lan extends his hand with a cup of tea over to Li Wei.

"Ah..." Li Wei calmed himself after he moistened his throat.

"Fellow disciple Qin, I've found what you've asked for. It was located on the northern side of our Dan-Xin Dwelling, known as Qingyao Hill. The rental for this Spiritual cave is a hundred contribution points per month. It covers the size of 1mu of space."

"But there's some issue in between that I'll have to tell you. Because this spiritual cave is located furthest from the core area, its concentration of Spiritual Energy cannot be compared. It was previously used as the operation base of an outer disciple's faction, which is now disbanded."

Li Wei's efficiency is shocking. Only half a day has passed, but he already managed to find out remarkably many details about what Qin Lan needs. While he patiently listened to Li Wei's suggestion, Qin Lan was also making some calculations in mind.

First of all, was the lack of Spiritual Energy compared to what the other spiritual cave has. Although it wasn't a problem for Qin Lan, who has plenty of experience in the Department of Blessings, obtaining the resources was an issue he has to consider.

It will be a waste of time if Qin Lan has to reproduce what he has done to the current Qin Family Estate all over again on this spiritual cave.

"Of course, the 1mu wide area would be great for those trying to cultivate their own medicinal herbs. Fellow disciple Qin, are you still with me?" Li Wei asked.

"Ah! Yes, I am. Please continue." Qin Lan embarrassedly smiles because he was somewhat absent-minded just now.

"Hold on for a moment, fellow disciple Li Wei. Did you say it would be great for those cultivating their own herbs?" Qin Lan quickly interrupted when the keyword came up.

"Yes. Because this spiritual cave is further away from the core area, the land that comes with it is wider than the others. All the other spiritual caves are at most a third or two-thirds of this one." Li Wei explained what Qin Lan asked in detail.

"If you'll give me one more day, I might be able to get a much better spiritual cave outside of this Qingyao Hill. The rental price might be..."

"I'll take it." Qin Lan interrupted Li Wei while he's trying to finish his sentence.

"Of course. The lack of Spiritual Energy is why. Don't worry. I'll just need a day to look for another one that is much more suitable for you to cultivate." Li Wei nodded.

"I say, I'll take it." Qin Lan repeats.

"Sure." Li Wei nodded. This time, he noticed something is wrong.

"Wait! What? Take it? Are you sure?" he quickly interrupted Qin Lan before the latter managed to continue.

Looking at how excited is Li Wei, Qin Lan chuckled. From the way Li Wei looked, he must have gone through a great effort in negotiating with the person in charge, perhaps an elder, to obtain the information of this particular spiritual cave.

"There's one more problem! Wait!" Li Wei raised his palm to stop Qin Lan from speaking.

"The Elder responsible for this spiritual cave said that if you are really interested, you'll have to pay three months rental in advance. I can help. But I only have a little more than a hundred contribution points with me, so..." Li Wei tapped his index fingers together as he speaks about the payment's matter.

"Fellow disciple Li Wei." Qin Lan exhaled.

"Yes," Li Wei stares at Qin Lan.

"Let's rent the place. I'll pay 200 contribution points out. We'll move in there together as we start our plan of getting rich." Qin Lan chuckled.
