“We told them that we will help them suppress the Lan Family and seize back 80% of the medical herb market. The terms would be to give us 30% of their medical herb harvest and 40% of their profits,” Elder Yun said honestly.

“Seizing back 80% of the market? After deducting what they are supposed to give us, isn’t it still a lot better than what they are earning now?” Sect Master Xuan frowned.

“That’s right. The remaining profits is definitely a lot more compared to what they are earning now. We can only think of them as being too short sighted and not knowing how to appreciate our favors. We already gave them such good terms, yet they still went to find Cheng Yu to cooperate behind our backs. This is too hateful!” Elder Feng sat down and said in fury.

“Are you sure they are the ones who took the initiative to find Cheng Yu and not Cheng Yu initiating it?”

“I don’t think so? Could it be that Cheng Yu is purposely opposing us or does he wish to chase us out of Yunhai?” Elder Yun asked unconvincingly.

“Hmph! Just because he is from Limitless Palace, he opposes us everywhere. If we were to let him off so easily, how are we going to establish ourselves well in the secular world? Since the Meng Family did not know how to appreciate our kindness, then we shall go over and make them endure some suffering. Did they not think that Cheng Yu’s backing is very strong? This is Kuming Juice. This is able to cause their herbs to slowly wither and it won’t be discovered by anyone. Pour this juice in to their plantation area and let nature take its course. In short, I want them not to be able to deliver their goods on time,” Sect Master Xuan took out a white medicine bottle and passed it to Elder Yun while laughing sinisterly.

“Nana, I need to request for another additional two days of leave. For the next two days, I will not be going to school,” While driving back home, Cheng Yu told Yao Na who was sitting beside him.

“What? You still want to extend your leave? The time is already so tight, can’t you wait until the national exam is over before handling it?” When she heard Cheng Yu wished to request for additional leave, Yao Na couldn’t help being somewhat worried.

“After the national exam, I will need to leave Yunhai for a period of time. So, I need to handle the matter now. Otherwise, I would feel worried.”

“You are leaving Yunhai? Then are you still coming back?” Yao Na asked anxiously.

“Do you wish for me to come back?” Cheng Yu laughed.

“Hmph! Who wishes for you to come back? It would be the best if you were to not come back. At least I would not be angered to death by you!” Yao Na harrumphed before turning her head away.

“Two days later, I will come and look for you. I have something very important to tell you. I will leave first. Good night,” After sending Yao Na back to school, Cheng Yu drove off.

Cheng Yu chomped down on the Spiritual Origin Fruit and finished it within two to three bites. Immediately, a thick and dense Qi wandered through his body. It was as if it wished to find an exit to escape through.

Cheng Yu tightly secured his lips and circulated the Qi in his dantian as he tried to quickly refine the immerse energy that was in his body. Cheng Yu’s body was very different from Lan Ya and the others. He would frequently use Body Tempering Pills to strengthen his body’s constitution. In addition, he was cultivating the art of derivation from all living things, and it needed to consume large amounts of spiritual Qi every time.

It could be said that for Cheng Yu to improve his cultivation, it would be a lot harder than others. If Cheng Yu was not a pill master with multiple fortuitous encounters, the time it would take him to cultivate to the next step would be long because the amount of spiritual Qi in the surroundings was not sufficient.

Now, though this Spiritual Origin Fruit had already been growing for hundreds of years, it did not mean that after Cheng Yu had consumed it, it would also increase his strength by over a 100 years. To have been nourished by spiritual Qi for so long only illustrated the preciousness of the fruit. Even if it had ripened, to be able to increase 100 years of cultivation would already be counted as extremely fortunate.

Thus, before this fruit had fully ripened, it was impossible for it to assist Cheng Yu in breaking through straight to the Golden Core Realm. For every breakthrough, Cheng Yu would need a tremendous amount of spiritual Qi. The art of derivation from all living things was not only derivation, but also caused the manifestation of the living things to be more and more realistic after every stage of a realm. Ultimately, it would be able to manifest into a concrete object.

Formerly, Cheng Yu was able to manifest the whole entity of all living things. This was also the reason why Cheng Yu was able to safeguard his independent pill master status in the Immortal World. Back then, his strength was not something that people could act against without thinking.

Cheng Yu’s whole body turned very red, and his expression showed that he was suffering in pain. To have such a large amount of spiritual Qi enter his body, it would inevitably be somewhat hard to resist without pain. He could only slowly assimilate the energy.

“Teacher Yao, I have something that I wish to discuss with you about. Let’s go and have dinner tonight,” After school, He Jian turned around and smiled at Teacher Yao.

“I’m sorry, Teacher He. I still have something do to. I will go first,” Yao Na was truly scared of He Jian. She had already told him very distinctly, yet he still continued to pester her.

“Teacher Yao, don’t be in such a hurry. Take a look at these first,” When He Jian saw Yao Na had already adopted the attitude of rejecting him, He Jian took out an envelope and placed it on Yao Na’s table.

At this moment, the office was empty except for the two of them. Yao Na had no idea what He Jian meant as she opened up the envelope and took a look inside. Immediately, her complexion turned ashen, and she looked stunned. After that, she stared at He Jian and said indignantly, ”Teacher He, you actually sent someone to spy on me!”

“Haha! Teacher Yao, don’t be angry. This isn’t spying on you. Coincidentally, my friend saw you, and my friend knew that I always adored Teacher Yao. So, he sent these pictures to me and hoped that I would be able to grab hold of this opportunity. Teacher Yao, do you think that I have gotten hold of that opportunity?” He Jian laughed.

“What do you want?!” Looking at He Jian’s disgusting countenance, Yao Na was angry.

“What do I want? Ever since you came to this school, I have always adored you. I have always been docile and obedient to your requests. Don’t tell me that you weren’t able to tell all of this? We can forget about those sarcastic comments you have said to me, but you would rather follow a playboy while not being willing to have a date with me? Don’t you feel that you are going a bit too overboard?” He Jian was very mad about how Yao Na had been treating him.

“You liking me is your problem, but whether I like you or not is my problem. As for who I am going out with, that’s something that should be even more unrelated to you.”

“Is that so? However, if our school were to know that our Teacher Yao is actually dating a student from her class, what do you think will happen?”

“You..you..you shameless! He and I are only in a student-teacher relationship. There’s nothing going on between us,” When Yao Na heard He Jian wanted to publish the images to the school, she started to worry about how she was going to appear in the public in the future?

“Really? However, look at how intimate you both are in these photos. You said that the two of you are only in a student-teacher relationship, but do you think others will believe you?” He Jian took out one of the photos inside the envelope and showed it to Yao Na. In the photo, Cheng Yu was picking out dishes and placing them into Yao Na’s mouth. Both of their expressions seemed to be filled with happiness.

“What exactly do you want?!” Yao Na decided to resign herself to fate. This time, even if she were to jump into the yellow river[1] she would not be able to remove herself of this crime. In this photo, no matter how you perceived it, a pair of passionate lovers were depicted. If she were to insist on it being a student-teacher relationship, there would definitely be no one who would believe her.

“Haha! Very simple. As long as you are willing to be my girlfriend, I can guarantee that I will not publish these photos,” When He Jian saw that Yao Na had nothing else to say, he complacently told her his purpose for doing this. It was as if He Jian had already seen Yao Na being cute and helpless in front of him.

Looking at the disgusting countenance He Jian was displaying, Yao Na got irritated. For Yao Na to be his girlfriend, she was really very unwilling. Yao Na clenched her teeth and said, ”Dream on! I do not agree!”

“Hmph! Since you are being so stubborn, get ready for the ‘good news’ tomorrow!” He Jian saw that Yao Na had rejected him once again, and a trace of hatefulness flashed through his eyes. He did not bother to take the photos on the table and went straight out of the office.

Looking at the photos on her table, Yao Na had no idea what to do. She was not foolish to think that He Jian only had one copy of the photos and had actually forgotten to take them back. She knew that he definitely had the original copies.

Yao Na put away the photos carefully and quickly took out her phone and called Cheng Yu. At this very moment, she felt that only Cheng Yu would be able to handle this problem. However, after she tried calling a few times, the calls did not go through. Cheng Yu said that he wished to take two days of leave, but she had no idea what he was going to do for the two days.historical

Without a choice, Yao Na held onto the photos and walked back to the teacher’s dormitory absentmindedly.

Not until the third afternoon was Cheng Yu finally able to fully assimilate all the efficacy of the Spiritual Origin Fruit.

After he felt that he had broken through to Foundation Establishment Realm late stage, Cheng Yu was invigorated. He felt that his strength had at least grown by ten times compared to the past. Now, even if he met the Kunlun cultivators who were in the Foundation Establishment Realm late stage, Cheng Yu would no longer worry about them. If they really provoked Cheng Yu, Cheng Yu did not mind exterminating the Kunlun Sect in the secular world.

Of course, Cheng Yu would not do such a foolish thing. Although the Kunlun in the secular world was small, if Cheng Yu were to accidentally offend the Kunlun in the cultivation world, it would bring forth a disaster. No matter how strong he was, he only had a cultivation level of a Foundation Establishment Realm expert. In front of those true experts, he was not worth for them to even lift their hands.

Since his cultivation had advanced, Cheng Yu’s mood got even better and the way he walked seem like he was flying with joy.

However, when he entered the school, he saw a lot of student were actually gesticulating at him causing Cheng Yu to feel subtle and ineffable. He couldn’t help touching his handsome face. Could it be that after he had advanced in his cultivation, he got even more handsome? Aish! As expected, to be a genius who is too handsome, it’s really hard to get rid of this effect!
