“Dear husband, you actually managed to refine the Yellow Dragon Pill; that’s incredibly impressive.”

“You are now a top-grade Pill Master.”

At this moment, seeing Zhou Sui walk out from the meditation chamber, still holding three newly refined pills in his hands, Ji Bingyu was overjoyed. ’ Although she believed her husband would eventually become a top-grade Pill Master, she didn’t expect it to happen so quickly, just a few months.

Given more time, perhaps her husband might become a second-stage Pill Master and be able to refine the Foundation Pill.

Her heart started to flutter, and her feelings of love for him grew stronger. “I’m far from that. Being a top-grade Pill Master is just the beginning.” Zhou Sui waved his hand, speaking with much modesty.

“That’s right. Given my husband’s talents, what does being a second-stage Pill Master mean? Perhaps he’ll be able to become a third or fourth-stage Pill Master.” Mu Ziyi admired Zhou Sui greatly.

She felt that her husband could probably do anything; he was simply omnipotent.

“Dear husband, I just made a meal. Would you like to eat?”

Ji Bingyu asked.

“No rush. Compared to the meal, I’d rather eat you.”

Zhou Sui was in a great mood. He looked at his wives Ji Bingyu and Mu Ziyi, wearing semi-transparent black clothes that revealed their stunning figure’s. Their every movement was bursting with charm.

Although they had been married for a while, they still possessed unique charm. “Oh you, you dirty man.”

Ji Bingyus’ face turned red. She shot Zhou Sui a look, clearly understanding what he was implying.

Hearing this, Mu Ziyi blushed as well, her eyes filled with shyness.

Xia Jingyan, off to the side, spat, revealing a mix of envy and embarrassment. After all, her relationship with this man was immoral and secretive. She couldn’t let her sister know she had slept with her brother-in-law.

Without a backward glance, she walked back to her room, out of sight, out of mind.

However, she was planning to tease this man later so much that he’d be crawling out of her room.

Soon, to celebrate becoming a top-grade Pill Master, the trio shared three lovely moments.

Not until nightfall did they wrap up their celebration.

“My dear, do you remember our neighbor Xu Tianze?”

Ji Bingyu, lying on Zhou Sui’s body, lazily mentioned their neighbour Xu Tianze.

“Oh, what about him? Didn’t he invite a bunch of Loose Cultivators to explore ancient ruins?” Zhou Sui recalled this mysterious neighbour Xu Tianze.

He had always been wary of this mysterious neighbour.

“They’ve returned recently, and apparently, they found a Foundation Establishment cave. They’ve gained a lot of treasures too. A number of Cultivators died though. They’re now celebrating.”

“I heard many Loose Cultivators are regretting their decision to refuse Xu Tianze’s invitation. They feel they could’ve struck it rich instead of burning with envy now.”

“They actually came back alive? And with significant gains?”

Zhou Sui was surprised. He didn’t expect such a thing to happen. He thought many Cultivators were likely to die on such an expedition, but they all returned safely.

Regardless, this had nothing to do with him. He wouldn’t let envy cloud his judgment.

Even if given another chance, he wouldn’t participate in such an activity.

It was like gambling.

Even if one got lucky once, the end result of gambling was always bankruptcy.

No gambler ended up well-off.

“That’s correct. Apparently, Xu Tianze is planning a second expedition. Many Cultivators are eagerly signing up. He even approached me and said I might be able to get a Foundation Establishment spiritual item.”

Ji Bingyu said,

“Don’t pay him any mind.”

Zhou Sui waved his hand dismissively, “In three days, Misty Cloud City’s triennial large-scale auction will take place. Perhaps we can purchase a Foundation Pill then. You would be able to make a breakthrough and ascend to the level of a Foundation Establishment Cultivator. Taking unnecessary risks is pointless.”

He didn’t take Xu Tianze’s advice seriously.

“Mm, I was thinking the same thing, so I turned him down on the spot. He didn’t persist either.”

Ji Bingyu agreed wholeheartedly. She had absolutely no intention of venturing outside the city for some risky adventure.

When she was still a loose cultivator, she often took risks and hunted monsters simply because she had no other way to earn Spirit Stones.

So she had no choice but to embrace this dangerous and bloody lifestyle.

But that’s not the case now. The sale of spiritual wine is incredibly booming, allowing her to earn a great amount of Spirit Stones every month.

Why would she want to mingle with those who risk their lives for a trivial cause?

Even if she succeeded, there’s no guarantee that the gain would be substantial.

If she failed, that would mean losing everything, even her life.

If one has hair, who would willingly become bald?

Those loose cultivators took risks out of despair. They lack skills and only knew how to fight and kill. Without hunting monsters or taking risks, where could they find resources for their cultivation?

“My dear, I heard that this auction is going to be a big event, and Xuanbao Tower is hosting it.”

Mu Ziyi continued, “This auction isn’t just selling Foundation Pills. There will also be Anti-aging Elixirs, Foundation Establishment spiritual items, top-grade magic weapons, and more. Many late Qi Cultivators and even Foundation Establishment Cultivators will participate.”

Xuanbao Tower?”

Upon hearing this, Zhou Sui blinked. It was the first time he had heard of this organization.

“My dear, don’t underestimate this chamber of commerce.”

Ji Bingyu voiced gravely, “It’s said that the chamber of commerce is backed by several Golden Core Masters, at least five or six. Even sects such as the Immortal Mist Sect and Ghost Demon Sect have to give Xuanbao Tower due respect.”

This chamber of commerce’s establishments are spread throughout all major Cultivator cities. Wherever there’s a Cultivator city, there will be a branch of Xuanbao Tower. Its power is undeniably substantial.”

Of course, this chamber of commerce also collects treasures from all over, frequently holding large-scale auctions that attract many Cultivators. Sometimes, even Golden Core Masters are drawn in.”

She briefly described the background of Xuanbao Tower, undoubtedly a behemoth-like organization.

The extent of their power and strength could possibly surpass even the Immortal Mist Sect.

Even during the prime of the Ji family, they purchased treasures from Xuanbao Tower and treated the Tower with great respect.

Naturally, the strength of a chamber of commerce that can gather and protect so many treasures is self-evident.

If they didn’t have enough strength, they would have been looted clean a long time ago.

The world of cultivation is far from peaceful. Everything is dictated by strength.

“So, does that mean we have a high chance of purchasing a Foundation Pill this time?”

Zhou Sui clenched his fist in excitement.

“Not necessarily. After all, some Foundation Establishment Cultivators are also attracted to this event. If they decide to get in on the action, it might not be our turn.”

Ji Bingyu shook her head.

Sometimes, a grand scale auction could also be a disadvantage for ordinary Cultivators.

It implies that many treasures would indeed be targeted by powerful Cultivators, leaving no opportunity for the ordinary ones.

No matter what, we must at least give it a try.”

Zhou Sui declared solemnly.

Because this was their only channel to procure a Foundation Pill. If they missed this chance, who knows when the next one would come..
