Chapter Ch222 - Moving to a New Home

Gongyi Tianyang pa.s.sed along that wooden case together with the jade circlet to Ling Ziwei. When Ling Ziqi dropped by again, he brought along a small self-portrait of Ling Ziwei.

This small portrait was a drawing of a bright-eyed and beautiful woman in snowy robes. Both of her slender, lily-white hands cheris.h.i.+ngly held a wooden case. The jade circlet, which was as splendorous as the moon, shone along with her, making her seem even more beautiful.

At the lower-right corner of the portrait, was the “Wei” character. It was graceful and elegant, while containing a vigorous calligraphic style. It was just like her.

Tianyang naturally acted as if he had gained the most precious treasure, and kept it close to his heart. Nevertheless, he didn’t send a small portrait of himself. Rather, he made Ling Ziqi carry a sentence back for him — “This heart is ever yours.”

Following this, in order to avoid drawing the attention of too many people, the frequency of Ling Ziqi’s visits lowered greatly.

It was after this that Tianheng’s body completely recovered.

Meanwhile, on the small hill that belonged solely to him, the residence he set had been constructed. In addition, a restaurant within Qingyun Sect’s interior Business District was taken over by Dragon One. Everything was stepping onto the right track.

All the people in the valley moved to that small hill, and Gu Zuo followed along in high spirits.

His belongings were all inside his own storage s.p.a.ce. Other people’s things were mostly held in Fangcun Cloths, inter-spatial tools, and other such devices. Everyone journeyed together, and followed an Inner Sect disciple who specially came to guide them. It didn’t take long to arrive in front of the small hill that Tianheng possessed.

This wasn’t a small hill that stood alone. There were at least dozens of small hills within its vicinity. However, the ones who dwelled on these small hills were all Immortal Realm disciples. In addition, more often than not, they were Immortal Realm disciples who had considerable financial resources — Otherwise, even though there were many hills, for those couldn’t afford a hill, several ordinary Immortal Realm disciples would’ve been able to dwell on the same hill by splitting it up for mixed housing.

Gongyi Tianheng was an underdeveloped Xiantian stage five disciple. Originally, he also shouldn’t have been able to afford a hill. Like some Immortal Realm martial artists, he would’ve left his own hill empty or made an exchange for resources.

But, who allowed him to obtain the lifetime savings of that huge bandit during the previous trip? And who allowed him to acquire that large number of spirit weapons and cultivation methods, and to make an exchange with others? Or what about the two storefronts under his control that were making money every day? What about his personal pharmacist who had such powerful skills?

As a result, this Xiantian martial artist was even more well-off than many Immortal Realm martial artists.

In the future, when his team was more sufficient, the benefits would roll in unceasingly and any a.s.surances would also naturally be even more abundant.

As one ascended, Tianheng’s designated residence was located close to the hilltop.

The vast stretch of open s.p.a.ce on the hilltop had been turned into a martial arts training ground as requested. When numerous martial artists cultivated every day, that place would be ideal for practicing.

The residence contained several houses. There were three houses on each side, and they were all connected by many single rooms. Each room was very s.p.a.cious, and could accommodate a single person. According to the arrangements, the left side was the pharmacist dwellings and the right side was a.s.signed to martial artists. Because the number of martial artists was higher than the number of pharmacists, there needed to be some more rooms on the right side.

In the middle, the largest one was a two-bedroom dormitory, which belonged to Gu Zuo and Gongyi Tianheng. These two bedrooms were separated by only a side door, connecting each other. However, so long as one side raised their voice, the other side would promptly hear it — Gu Zuo and Tianheng were long used to such outward appearances. So, they automatically kept this kind of intimate stance. For the past few years, they had hardly parted ways, and no one had suggested that this was inappropriate.

Behind this two-bedroom dormitory, there was a rather voluminous palace hall.

The palace hall’s surroundings were tightly protected, and the s.p.a.ce inside was very large. Unexpectedly, Tianheng had specially instructed for the construction of an enormous medicine refining room for Gu Zuo.

— If one compared Gu Zuo’s previous medicine refining room to this one, then it was simply the difference between rubble and ceramic glaze. As for the interior furnis.h.i.+ngs, Tianheng, who had great foresight, had spent huge amounts of gold and had spared no efforts to set everything up.

After squeezing into and rus.h.i.+ng out of the medicine refining room, Gu Zuo was naturally joyous and excited.

As far as a pharmacist was concerned, this truly made him too happy! And with regards to two people who’d always been close, when one side attached such importance to the other side, this also left the other side incredibly contented.

Tianheng saw this look of his where Gu Zuo’s two glistening eyes practically wanted to bounce over. Tianheng reached out a hand to ruffle his hair: “If there’s anything unsuitable and I’m not here, just tell a Tianlong Guard. No matter who it is, they’ll resolve it for you.”

Gu Zuo blanked: “Big brother’s going somewhere?”

Tianheng faintly shook his head: “Ordinarily, there are also times when I have to go out and handle matters. I’m only worried about Ah Zuo if I happen to be away.”

Gu Zuo nodded, and then abortively shook his head: “I’ve looked at all of it, and everything’s fine. But, if I really find something afterwards, I’ll definitely tell you.”

Tianheng’s gaze softened: “That’s good to hear.”

Gu Zuo blinked his eyes, and then revealed a great, big smile.

He would definitely tell his dear big brother. Otherwise, if he kept things hidden, then it wouldn’t prevent difficulties for his big brother. On the contrary, it would make it even more troublesome.

Once everything was moved in, Dragon One made arrangements for everyone.

For the pharmacists, apart from having their own rooms, there was actually a medicine refining location built for them. It was similar to the palace hall that Gu Zuo had, but the interior wasn’t as meticulously refurbished — Normally, besides Gu Zuo himself, only Tianheng could enter or exit Gu Zuo’s palace hall at will.

The Gongyi Clan children were treated almost the same as the other subordinates here, and they moved into the martial artist rooms one after another. After settling down, they resumed their daily activities of practicing martial arts and meditating.

Gongyi Mingxia was the only girl. Although she was still very young, she couldn’t be neglected. On the contrary, she had an ornamented tower, which was located close to Tianheng’s residence. Relatively speaking, it was much more exquisite than the dwellings of other martial artists.

Soon, everyone obtained their own rooms.

But after they had their dwellings, there were still other affairs that needed handling. Dragon Three had been put forward from the Tianlong Guards, and was dispatched to that newly-opened restaurant — Although there was nothing special about its exterior, its interior had actually been made into a place a.n.a.logous to a medicinal cuisine shop. Many of the cooking recipes within were medicinal cuisine prescriptions that were copied by Gu Zuo. Merely, ordinary pharmacists didn’t know the refining methods and weren’t capable of the best combinations between medicinal properties and dietary ingredients. However, with the prescriptions in place, the cuisine would be somewhat effective. Likewise, it would draw people’s interest.

Tianheng’s current funds were sufficient. In order to facilitate the work of his subordinates and to save time, Tianheng directly used contribution points in exchange for some wild birds that were reared in the Sect. Their breeds varied, but, without exception, all of them were very applicable.

These wild birds were settled in the back of the Beast Governing Building. After they were familiarized somewhat, the birds all went out to “work”.

After this, Tianheng held a dinner party.

So to say, it was also about moving to a new residence. Even if his status was different from before, the quality of those friends he made along the way also weren’t low. The weight of inviting them over was considered sufficient.

There was Xun Suying, Fu Manduo, and Liu Wuyan. There was also Zhao Yuheng, Xi Yangyun, and several others… They were all people whose friends.h.i.+ps were relatively deep. And these people also gave face. After receiving the invitation letters, they quickly arrived one after another.

Xu Lingxiu also came.

But he wasn’t here to give face to Tianheng, but rather Gu Zuo.

The purpose for his arrival here wasn’t to attend the banquet. Instead, it was to deliver something to Gu Zuo.

Of course, Gu Zuo was busy cooking.

— He wouldn’t have bothered if it was just a big banquet, but this small feast was a party for such good friends. So for the most part, he did the job himself. It was also to give his dear big brother some face.

Xu Lingxiu arrived in front of Gu Zuo’s door and saw him carrying out one big plate of delicacies after another. Xu Lingxiu’s expression turned a little unsightly: “You’re a dignified pharmacist, and Junior Sect Brother Gongyi is unexpectedly making you cook?”

Gu Zuo had an exasperated look.

Okay. He knew Xu Lingxiu was offended on his behalf… But this actually wasn’t something his big brother asked him to do. Rather, it was something that he took delight in. Whether ordering from outside or finding a cook to make meals, how could he ensure that his big brother’s flimsy body got healthy?! It was one thing if he had gone out and couldn’t attend to the banquet, but since he was here, he would do it.

When Xu Lingxiu saw Gu Zuo’s expression, he certainly knew that Gu Zuo didn’t really take this matter seriously. With a straight face, he lifted his chin and said nothing else.

He wasn’t a small-minded person, and wouldn’t go so far as to incite disharmony in their relations.h.i.+p. Only, he didn’t understand sometimes. Gu Zuo was a pharmacist with such potential and powerful strength. Why could he be so, so docile and obedient to Gongyi Tianheng? No matter how deep he knew the two’s friends.h.i.+p was, he still somewhat resented iron for not becoming steel.

If Gu Zuo knew about Xu Lingxiu’s way of thinking, his heart would certainly be silently mocking him.

Because…because his big brother had taken care of everything for him.

What’s more, where had he been docile and obedient? He just trusted his big brother’s IQ more…

Xu Lingxiu finally swept his gaze across. Taking advantage of this time when Gu Zuo was serving food, Xu Lingxiu threw out a token: “With this, you can freely go in and out of the Pharmacist Hall like an ordinary Pharmacist Hall disciple. Using this thing, you can also partic.i.p.ate in the pharmacists’ internal communications and conduct exchanges with numerous Pharmacist Hall disciples. Apart from this, you can apply to observe pharmacists refining medicine, flip through a portion of the ancient books of the Pharmacist Hall’s Library Pavilion, or use the Pharmacist Hall’s Earth Fire Rooms. It’s extremely useful, but it’s a special gift from the Pharmacist Hall’s Hall Master. Junior Sect Brother Gu, you need to keep it safe, and go to the Pharmacist Hall from time to time.”

Gu Zuo promptly agreed with joy on his face.

Although he had a system in hand, it seemed that what he learned was all-encompa.s.sing. These things were often more powerful than what he encountered now. However, since he had this benefit, he naturally wouldn’t let it go.

He needed to make others feel that this was conforming to reason.

On the other side of things, Tianheng and the others were in the middle of toasting.

After courses of delicacies were served, Fu Manduo and the others couldn’t help but laugh and praise: “This time, it seems to be Junior Sect Brother Gu’s handiwork. Junior Sect Brother Gongyi, you’re very lucky, indeed.”

The corner of Tianheng’s lips curled into a smile. He lightly raised his wine cup, and saluted towards everyone.

After the numerous disciples laughed heartily, they likewise drank. Then, they gave a round of toasts to each other.

Seeing these martial artists having a great time, Gu Zuo quietly sat next to Xu Lingxiu. He came to placate this young prince whose mood still seemed a little sour. With great difficulty, Xu Lingxiu’s mood improved somewhat. The two young pharmacists started to exchange their medicine refining experiences, and boosted each other in low voices.

Xu Lingxiu discovered that Gu Zuo’s skills had increased to some extent once again, and his foundations were even deeper. Amid such a joyful exchange in medicine refinement, his anger just now had been unknowingly tossed away.

After several rounds of wine, the numerous martial artists presented their gifts one after another.

Tianheng was hardly stingy as well. He lifted a hand, and each person was given a small jade bottle.

Originally, these disciples wouldn’t open the jade bottles in front of everyone — In any case, one only needed to know that these were medicinal pills. If such impulsive actions were taken, wouldn’t that be a public slap to Tianheng’s face?

Who would’ve thought that Fu Manduo was excessively cheerful? In a moment of carelessness, he lightly knocked down that jade bottle. This tiny jostle naturally didn’t cause any harm to the jade bottle, but the bottle cork on top had given way because of this collision.

At first, Fu Manduo wanted to seal it up again. But for some reason, just as he was about to make a move, he smelled a strong medicinal fragrance — This was because that bottle cork hadn’t been completely loosened. Only an extremely dilute trace of the scent of medicinal pills was leaked. It was impossible for those farther away to discover it immediately.

This strong medicinal fragrance attracted Fu Manduo’s attention at once.

This profiteer’s instincts were piqued. Fu Manduo couldn’t endure it a second longer and plucked out that bottle cork. In the blink of an eye, an even denser fragrance drew the attentions of all the disciples enjoying the banquet.

“This is—”

“Eh, the jade bottle?”

“This jade bottle…”

“Quick, take a look!”

Gu Zuo also had his attention attracted.

He swiftly recognized that these were the top grade Qi Linking Pills that he refined. The number of pills that were stored with his big brother were many, but now it seemed that his big brother had dug out quite a few, and one small bottle was delivered to each person?

Soon after, he recalled the Spirit Devouring Pills, and understood in a flash.

Off on the side, Fu Manduo involuntarily cried out: “…Top grade Qi Linking Pills?”

The other few disciples all recognized it. They drunkenly breathed in a mouthful of pill fragrance, and only felt that the true qi within their bodies was even more lively. It was like their true qi was itching to combine with the medicinal power.

Instantly, the numerous, n.o.ble guests were unable to restrain themselves. They took out their own small jade bottles to open them, too.

At this moment, gasps of surprise rang out repeatedly.
