Walking down the street.

  Most of the cultivators on the street were in a hurry.

  And their faces didn't look very happy.

  Obviously, the societal pressure was high, and unable to meet more demands, most people couldn't find happiness.

  This was true even in the cultivation society.

  Ye Chen sighed a few words and arrived at Lu Jing's door.

  He knocked on the door.

  Lu Jing quickly opened the door, her eyes lighting up when she saw Ye Chen.

  She immediately came over to let Ye Chen in.

  Seeing Lu Jing today, Ye Chen couldn't help but be impressed.

  Lu Jing's hair was slightly damp, cascading down her back.

  Her body also seemed fresh and dewy.

  She wore a particurly cool dress.

  It was as if she had just taken a bath.

  When Ye Chen first crossed over, it was winter.

  Now, a few months had passed, the weather had become warm, even showing signs of getting hot.

  Lu Jing's figure was already striking.

  At this moment, dressed so lightly, even though nothing was really exposed.

  It still inevitably sparked one's imagination.

  Big, indeed, was the truth.

  "Fellow Daoist Ye is here, come in quickly, the meat is just done stewing."

  Lu Jing gently brushed the hair from her forehead with her hand.

  Every move carried a mature air.

  "Then I'll intrude."

  Ye Chen politely followed Lu Jing into the room.

  Lu Jing's house, like Lin Ke'er's, was also a one-bedroom, one-living room, one-kitchen, one-bathroom setup.

  But it wasn't very spacious.

  The dining table in the living room was already set with bowls and chopsticks.

  Lu Jing then went into the kitchen to bring out the stewed beast meat.

  Instantly, the whole room was filled with a fragrant aroma.

  Lu Jing let Ye Chen sit while she went to serve the rice.

  Soon, she brought out two bowls of rice.

  One more, one less.

  The scent of the spirit rice was equally enticing.

  Since Ye Chen crossed over, he hadn't cooked for himself.

  The One Leaf Pill Shop didn't provide meals.

  He relied entirely on buying Inedia Pills.

  His mouth was indeed craving.

  After a brief chat, they sat down to eat.

  There wasn't much beast meat in the stew.

  Most of it was simir to potatoes from his previous life.

  But the taste was quite good.

  The beast meat was very fvorful, with a chewy texture and a hint of spiciness, quite appetizing.

  When the beast meat entered his stomach, he could feel a warm sensation, as if strands of spiritual energy were nourishing his body.

  Ye Chen didn't hold back, eating with great appetite.

  After all, he was going to give such an expensive gift, what's wrong with eating a bit?

  In his mind, he thought about finding a cook in the future to make meals every day.

  This was much more enjoyable than eating Inedia Pills.

  Lu Jing, however, didn't eat much.

  She even actively helped Ye Chen with the dishes, her beautiful eyes always smiling at him.

  It seemed watching Ye Chen eat made her very satisfied.

  "Fairy Lu's cooking skills are truly exceptional."

  The meal was soon finished, and Ye Chen spoke with great satisfaction.

  Lu Jing beamed with a smile: "If Fellow Daoist Ye likes it, you can come often."

  "Unfortunately, there's not much beast meat at home, I couldn't let you eat to your heart's content."

  "In a few days, I'll get my pay, then I'll go to the market to buy a bigger piece of beast meat and invite you again."

  "Fellow Daoist Ye, please sit, I'll clean up the dishes and then come to chat with you."

  With that, she gently swayed her waist and went to the kitchen to tidy up.

  Ye Chen stayed in the living room, feeling that Lu Jing was indeed more mature, her level was indeed higher than Lin Ke'er.

  This visit, she first dressed lightly to show off her figure.

  Then she demonstrated her excellent cooking skills.

  During this process, she also showed a bit of financial hardship.

  Like not having much beast meat, or not much spirit rice.

  But most of it was given to him.

  Being treated by such a woman, what man wouldn't be moved?

  Anyone with the ability would feel a bit of pity for her.

  And then give her something to help?

  In his previous life, many women talked about their family situations, using the same tactic.

  It was to trigger a man's sympathy and affection.

  But although Ye Chen could see through it.

  He wouldn't expose it.

  Because it was a perfect opportunity to give her a big gift.

  Using this tactic on me.

  You could say it was used on the right person.

  ...

  Lu Jing quickly finished cleaning up the dishes.

  She sat on the chair and chatted with Ye Chen.

  When she sat down, the chair made her figure look even more impressive.

  "Thank you, Fairy Lu, for the delicious meal..."

  Ye Chen sincerely thanked her.

  Lu Jing noticed that Ye Chen's gaze at her was different from when he first arrived, with more affection.

  Her heart leaped with joy.

  Her tactics had worked.

  But she didn't show it, she smiled and shook her head: "Not at all, it's my hospitality that's cking, Fellow Daoist Ye clearly didn't eat enough..."

  Ye Chen also shook his head: "Fairy Lin is too polite."

  "Visiting as a guest, I didn't prepare a special gift, so I'll give you this."

  Lu Jing's heart was filled with joy upon hearing this.

  But she quickly refused: "Fellow Daoist Ye, there's no need to be so polite, I invited you over just to simply be friends."

  "After all, in the cultivation world, everyone is busy cultivating, busy earning spirit stones, no one has time for each other."

  "And chatting with Fellow Daoist Ye, I find it very interesting..."

  "Moreover, Fellow Daoist Ye already gave me an Essence Cultivation Pill st time, how can I accept another gift?"

  Ye Chen was resolute: "Since Fairy Lu considers me a friend, then you must accept it."

  Saying this, he took out the Golden Body Technique Jade Slip he had just bought from Qingyun Workshop, not yet warmed, and handed it to Lu Jing.

  Lu Jing was about to refuse again.

  But seeing the jade slip, she was stunned.

  A jade slip?

  No matter what's inside, its value is higher than pills.

  Ye Chen then introduced: "This is a defensive magic, Golden Light Technique, that I bought from Qingyun Workshop..."

  "The Cerulean Pace Clerk said that Qingyun Sect disciples all practice this, it's much stronger than ordinary defensive spells."

  "It's said to be an outer sect defensive magic from an Ancient Buddhist Sect."

  Hearing this, Lu Jing was dumbfounded.

  A defensive magic, and even practiced by Qingyun Sect disciples?

  How many spirit stones would that cost!

  Her heart was already filled with joy.

  Because this gain far exceeded her expectations.

  Even though she was eager to accept it immediately.

  Lu Jing still refused: "This is too precious, I can't accept it!"

  Ye Chen, however, didn't care, he said directly: "It's just the price of a medium-grade spirit stone, if Fairy Lin truly considers me a friend, don't refuse."

  As he spoke, he forcefully took Lu Jing's small hand and pced the jade slip in it.

  Lu Jing's small hand was plump and soft, with an excellent feel.

  Most importantly, female cultivators in the cultivation world might have fwless skin due to the nourishment of spiritual energy.

  Their skin was fwless, white and smooth like silk.

  At this moment, Lu Jing's heart was already excited because Ye Chen was giving her a defensive magic.

  Ordinary defensive spells weren't cheap.

  And this Golden Light Technique, valued at a whole medium-grade spirit stone.

  It was like a pie falling from the sky.

  She didn't even have the mind to think about Ye Chen holding her hand.

  Holding the jade slip for a long time, Lu Jing felt a bit unreal.

  This was a magic worth a medium-grade spirit stone.

  Ordinary mid-stage cultivators might take half a year or even a year to earn such spirit stones.

  And she got it just like that?

  She had long known Ye Chen was generous.

  But experiencing it firsthand, she realized just how generous Ye Chen was.

  This was definitely the world's greatest treasure.

  Lu Jing even felt a bit sorry for Lin Ke'er.

  Sitting on a treasure mountain, wouldn't it be better to work at the One Leaf Pill Shop as a receptionist?

  Being close to the source, receiving pills every day, and even getting spells.

  Going to the mountains to risk life and limb for a few spirit stones?

  Truly foolish.

  At this moment, Lu Jing made up her mind.

  She must not repeat Lin Ke'er's mistakes.

  She must be more attentive to Ye Chen from now on.

  To firmly tie Ye Chen to her, making him her exclusive Lick Spirit.
