Supreme Emptiness

Xu Family.

Xu Youran held her face with both hands, looking distressed.

"Fan, why is everything so difficult for us?"

First, there was Lu Zheng stealing love. It took great effort for Jiang Fan to defeat Lu Zheng, and then there was an exorbitant dowry.

Fortunately, Chen Silin was willing to help, but then came Zhu Jianshen, who had an incredibly high status and position.

There was silence behind her.

She turned her head to see Jiang Fan pouring Spiritual Liquid from a jade bottle into a teacup. He handed it to her: "Drink it?"

Xu Youran looked suspicious: "What is it?"

"You’ll know once you drink it." Jiang Fan smiled, turned around, and picked up a pen to transcribe something.

Xu Youran pondered briefly before drinking it swiftly.

Anyone in this world might harm her, but never Jiang Fan.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the Spiritual Liquid entered her stomach, it churned violently, causing her meridians to ache.

"Fan, what is this?"

Surprised, Xu Youran saw Jiang Fan handing her several pages of prepared text: "Cultivate according to this mental method."

Mental method?

Xu Youran knew exactly how precious mental methods were.

The Xu Family, despite its reputation, only practiced an unknown mental method, not even at the Lower level.

Feeling the intense pain in her stomach, she wasted no time, sat cross-legged, and began to cultivate as instructed by the mental method.

About half a day later.

Suddenly.

Xu Youran’s slender body shook, and a strong Spiritual Power emanated from her.

"Qi Cultivation Third Layer?"

Xu Youran exclaimed in disbelief: "Fan, what did you make me cultivate?"

What else could it be?

Of course, it was that Yellow Level High-grade mental method, the "Pure Wind Scripture".

However, what truly enabled her to break through in a short period was the top-grade Qi Cultivation Liquid.

"These are all things my father left me." Jiang Fan handed her another mysterious liquid.

Xu Youran suddenly understood.

No wonder Jiang Fan had changed so much recently.

His cultivation had advanced rapidly, suddenly having so much money, and possessing a seemingly powerful mental method.

She took the teacup again, drank the entire bottle of top-grade Qi Cultivation Liquid in one gulp, and continued to cultivate sitting cross-legged.

Jiang Fan also swallowed a bottle and sat beside her to cultivate.

The next morning.

Seeing Xu Youran still in meditation, Jiang Fan quietly packed newly refined Qi Cultivation Liquid and went to the Chen Family.

"Senior, you’re here so early?"

The shopkeeper, stepping out of the mansion, saw the burly Jiang Fan and exclaimed: "Miss is busy cleaning the warehouse. I’ll take you to the guest hall to rest and immediately inform Miss."

"No need for such trouble, just take me straight to her."

Thus.

In front of the Chen Family’s warehouse, Jiang Fan saw Chen Silin, with her slender waist, intently counting various herbs on the ground.

A pink top, a blue long skirt, and a simple yet tasteful combination that gave a sweet impression.

Her full posterior pressed against the long skirt, outlining a pair of peach petals.

"Miss, senior has arrived."

The shopkeeper reminded from afar.

Chen Silin stood up hurriedly, turned her head, and almost blurted out Jiang Fan’s name.

Luckily, she caught herself and quickly corrected: "Senior, you’ve arrived."

Jiang Fan looked at the scattered materials on the ground: "What are these?"

Chen Silin, having moved around for a while, her pretty face flushed, making her skin look like peach blossoms.

"Reporting to senior, these are some expired or unsellable herbs. They can only be discarded or sold at a low price."

Really?

Jiang Fan glanced over. These materials weighed at least hundreds of pounds, all filled with Spiritual Energy, Heavenly Materials, and Earthly Treasures.

It would be a pity to just throw them away.

Suddenly, Jiang Fan’s gaze was drawn to an old jade box, inside which lay a branch.

Several fiery red, soybean-sized fruits grew on it.

"Oh?"

Jiang Fan picked up the jade box and scrutinized it for a while, saying, "It’s actually Forget River Beans?"

"Are you really going to throw away such treasures?"

In the "Taiyin Soul Technique," there is a third-grade Spirit Pill called the Beauty-Restore Pill.

It can turn white hair black and rejuvenate the skin, a treasure women dream of.

However, its main ingredient, the Forget River Bean, is extremely rare.

It is formed from the tears of a demon called Forget River, reminiscing about its past in its old age.

Unexpectedly, the Chen Family actually had one.

"Senior has great knowledge, recognizing the Forget River Beans."

Chen Silin, with a faint fragrance, approached and gazed at the well-disguised Jiang Fan with sparkling eyes, softly saying:

"My grandfather found this on a cliff when he was young. After consulting countless ancient books, he learned it was a Forget River Bean, the legendary main ingredient of the Beauty-Restore Pill." @@novelbin@@

"Unfortunately, it is a third-grade Spirit Pill, and no one can refine it."

A Second Grade Soul Master is already a formidable presence.

Not to mention the legendary Third Grade Soul Master?

Where could the Chen Family find such a person?

"We have the Forget River Beans, but without a Soul Master, it’s been a hidden treasure for decades. I planned to sell it cheaply."

Sell it?

Jiang Fan’s mouth twitched violently. Such wastefulness?

"Since you want to sell it, why not give it to me? I’ll refine it into a Beauty-Restore Pill and give you one as payment. How about that?"

Hmm?

Chen Silin blinked her clear eyes, reminding him: "Senior, the Beauty-Restore Pill is a third-grade Spirit Pill, only a Third Grade Soul Master can refine it."

Jiang Fan replied: "Is there a problem?"

Hiss!

Chen Silin’s eyes widened, covering her rosy lips, exclaiming: "You… you are a Third Grade Soul Master?"

A Second Grade and a Third Grade, though only one grade apart, were worlds apart!

The Green Cloud Sect Master held the Second Grade Soul Master they hired with great respect.

But if the person were a Third Grade Soul Master, it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say the Sect Master would kneel in respect!

Jiang Fan was actually a Third Grade Soul Master?

She found it hard to believe.

Jiang Fan said: "You’ll see once I start refining. Provide me with a secret room."

Chen Silin came back to her senses and quickly led the way: "There’s one beside the warehouse."

Jiang Fan nodded, handed her the forty bottles of top-grade Qi Cultivation Liquid he had refined the previous day, and stepped into the secret room.

He wasn’t entirely sure of his Soul Master level.

But being able to refine top-grade Qi Cultivation Liquid, surpassing his father, a Second Grade Soul Master, refining this pill shouldn’t be an issue, right?

With curiosity, he began the refining process.

At the same time.

Zhang Yuxiu and Zhu Jianshen, accompanied by the Chen Family Matriarch Liu Qimin, arrived at the warehouse.

"Siling, come meet Young Master Zhu."

Standing by the secret room, Chen Silin did not move but bowed from afar.

Lowering her voice to avoid disturbing Jiang Fan, she said: "Mrs. Zhu, Young Master Zhu, I’m unable to come over. Please forgive me."

Seeing this, Liu Qimin lightly frowned.

Zhu Jianshen was a disciple of the Green Cloud Sect, of significant status.

Personally visiting, how could he be treated so indifferently?

"Siling! Do not be rude! What could be more important than paying respects to Young Master Zhu?"

Zhu Jianshen was examining Chen Silin. Her sweet and fresh demeanor, seductive figure, made his eyes light up.

Though not as stunning as Xu Youran, she was also an irresistible beauty.

He courteously said: "Miss Chen, what are you doing?"

Glancing at the secret room she guarded, he searched for a topic.

In front of a Green Cloud Sect disciple, Chen Silin dared not be arrogant, so she explained: "To be honest, Young Master Zhu, a Soul Master senior is refining pills inside."

"Forgive me for not being able to chat with you, lest I disturb the senior."

Soul Master senior?

Zhu Jianshen’s lips curled: "Quite a coincidence."

"Alright, let’s see how I expose him as a fake Soul Master!"

"Daring to bluff before me, Zhu Jianshen, I’ll unmask him!"
