My Xiuxian painting style is not right

Chapter 317: The Shock of Immortals and Demons

Chen Yu walked on the stone steps leading to the secret room, holding the steaming pot in his hand.

The night pearls on both sides of the stone steps emitted a soft light, stretching his shadow very long.

There was a faint scent of sandalwood floating in the air. This was specially arranged by Lin Qingxue, who said it could calm the mind.

"Dong dong dong."

Chen Yu knocked on the stone door of the secret room.

"Come in." Liu Ruyan's lazy voice came out.

The stone door slid open silently, and Chen Yu saw two women sitting cross-legged on the cushions at a glance.

Lin Qingxue sat in a white dress, as graceful as a lotus, while Liu Ruyan, clad in a fiery red gauze, half-reclined on a soft couch.

"What are you doing..." Lin Qingxue looked at the small pot in Chen Yu's hand and frowned slightly.

"Researching a new formula." Chen Yu smiled and placed the small pot on the stone table. "Qian Wuliang tasted it just now and had a breakthrough."

"Qian Wuliang?" Liu Ruyan sat up straight. "That old fox from the Law Enforcement Hall?"

"Yes, you're our shareholder now." Chen Yu took out a few small bowls from his cloth bag. "10% of the shares."

"You know how to do business." Lin Qingxue snorted coldly.

"Isn't this for the sake of keeping the store open?" Chen Yu poured a bowl of soup for each of the two women. "Come, try it."

Liu Ruyan took the bowl and took a sip: "Hmm? This is..."

Her eyes suddenly lit up and the spiritual power in her body began to boil.

Seeing this, Lin Qingxue also picked up the bowl and took a sip. Suddenly, a warm current flowed from her throat to her dantian, and her whole body was warm.

"What is this?" Lin Qingxue asked in surprise.

"Spicy hot pot base." Chen Yu said proudly, "With the meat of the Xuanyang Beast added."

"The meat of the Xuanyang Beast isn't that potent." Liu Ruyan took another sip. "What did you add to it?"

"Secret recipe." Chen Yu smiled mysteriously, "But that's not what we're going to study tonight."

"What is that?" Lin Qingxue asked.

Chen Yu took out a small bottle from his cloth bag: "The formula for the Dual Cultivation Pill."

"Dual Cultivation Pill?" the two women asked in unison.

"Yes." Chen Yu shook the bottle. "This contains special spices, which go well with the hot pot base..."

"Wait!" Lin Qingxue interrupted him, "You don't mean to..."

"Researching new formulas." Chen Yu said seriously, "For the development of the cultivation world."

"You..." Two red clouds appeared on Lin Qingxue's face.

"I think it's possible." Liu Ruyan suddenly said, "We have to break through the bottleneck anyway."

"You!" Lin Qingxue glared at her.

"Sister Qingxue." Liu Ruyan said with a smile, "Haven't you always wanted to break through to the Nascent Soul stage?"

Lin Qingxue bit her lip and said nothing.

"Come on." Chen Yu poured the spices into the pot, "For the development of the cultivation world."

"Don't try that on me!" Lin Qingxue spat, but still came closer.

At this moment, a burst of hurried footsteps suddenly came from outside the secret room.

"Oh no!" It was Xiao Cui's voice. "There are so many people outside!"

"Who is it?" Chen Yu asked.

"Some are from the Immortal Realm, and some are from the Demon Realm!" Xiao Cui stamped her feet anxiously outside the door. "They said they want to see Master Chen!"

"Immortal Realm? Demon Realm?" Chen Yu was stunned. "How do they know..."

Before he finished speaking, he suddenly thought of something and turned to look at the two women: "You..."

Lin Qingxue and Liu Ruyan looked at each other and showed embarrassed expressions at the same time.

"I just sent a message to the fairy world..." Lin Qingxue said in a low voice.

"I just want to let a few friends in Demon Realm know..." Liu Ruyan stuck out her tongue.

Chen Yu held his forehead and said, "You guys are going to do something big."

"I just want to expand your business." Liu Ruyan said with a smile.

"Make it bigger?" Chen Yu smiled bitterly, "This is going to break the sky."

"Then..." Lin Qingxue stood up, "I'll go deal with the people from the Immortal Realm."

"I'll go deal with the Demon Realm." Liu Ruyan also stood up.

"Wait!" Chen Yu stopped the two of them, "How are you going to talk about this?"

"Of course..." Liu Ruyan blinked, "You're asking for too much."

"That's right." Lin Qingxue rarely showed a sly smile, "Since they are so anxious, then the price..."

"As for the price..." Chen Yu touched his chin, "Then I'll charge ten times the price of the pills on the market."

"Ten times?" Lin Qingxue shook her head. "Too little."

"A hundred times." Liu Ruyan held up a finger. "This is a hot pot that can improve your cultivation."

"You..." Chen Yu looked at the two women and suddenly smiled, "Then I'll listen to you."

"Master Chen!" Xiao Cui shouted again from outside, "They said they'll force their way in if we don't meet again!"

"I'm coming." Chen Yu stood up. "I'll go with you."

When the three of them pushed open the stone door, they saw Xiao Cui sweating profusely in anxiety.

"Where is it?" Chen Yu asked.

"The front yard and the back yard." Xiao Cui said, "The fairyland is in the front yard, and the demon realm is in the back yard."

"That's a tacit understanding." Chen Yu said with a smile, "Then let's split up."

Lin Qingxue nodded and turned to walk towards the front yard. Liu Ruyan, on the other hand, drifted towards the backyard, her red skirt drawing a graceful arc in the air.

Chen Yu stood where he was, took out a small notebook from his cloth bag, and quickly wrote down a few numbers.

These are all opportunities to make a fortune, so you need to plan carefully.

In the front yard, Lin Qingxue faced a dozen immortal cultivators. Leading the group was a white-haired old man holding a jade ruler. He was none other than Yu Wuhen, the head of the Immortal World Pill Hall.

"Fairy Lin." Yu Wuhen bowed, "I heard there's a new type of elixir here?"

"It's not a pill." Lin Qingxue said calmly, "It's a new way of cultivation."

"Oh?" Yu Wuhen's eyes lit up, "I wonder what method it is?"

"Hot pot." Lin Qingxue said.

"Hot...pot?" Yu Wuhen frowned. "What is this?"

"A delicacy that can help people break through their realms." Lin Qingxue said, "Qian Wuliang has already verified it."

"Qian Wuliang?" A hint of surprise flashed in Yu Wuhen's eyes. "Hasn't he been stuck in the late Nascent Soul stage for hundreds of years?"

"Just because I had a hot pot meal, I had a breakthrough."

"Really?" The monks behind Yu Wuhen whispered.

"If you don't believe me..." Lin Qingxue took out a jade bottle from her sleeve, "Here's some soup base, you can try it."

Yu Wuhen took the jade bottle and poured a drop into his palm. Before he even took a sip, he felt a powerful spiritual energy fluctuation.

"This...this..." Yu Wuhen's eyes widened, "What a strong drug!"

"This is just the soup base," Lin Qingxue said. "If you add special ingredients..."

"How many spirit stones?" Yu Wuhen asked directly.

"One million high-grade spirit stones per portion."

"What?" Yu Wuhen almost jumped up, "It's too expensive!"

"Forget it then." Lin Qingxue turned around and was about to leave.

"Wait!" Yu Wuhen quickly stopped her, "We can discuss it."

In the backyard, Liu Ruyan was chatting and laughing with a group of monks from the Demon Realm.

These demon cultivators were all ferocious, but under Liu Ruyan's charm, they all became docile.

"My Lords," Liu Ruyan fanned herself, "this is a valuable item that can enhance your magic power."

"Are you serious?" a one-eyed demon cultivator asked, "Are you kidding us?"

"How could that be?" Liu Ruyan took out a black porcelain bottle and said, "Try it and you'll know."

The one-eyed demon cultivator took the bottle, poured out a sip, and drank. Suddenly, the demonic energy in his body surged, and his entire body was shrouded in a layer of black mist.

"Good! Good! Good!" The one-eyed demon cultivator said three good words in a row, "This thing is even more domineering than the devil's marrow!"

"Of course." Liu Ruyan said proudly, "But the price..."

"How much?" asked the one-eyed demon cultivator.

"Two million high-grade spirit stones per portion."

"What?" The one-eyed demon cultivator widened his eye, "Why don't you just go and rob?"

"Rob?" Liu Ruyan sneered, "Aren't you the richest people in the Demon Realm?"

"This..." The one-eyed demon cultivator looked at his companions, "Let us discuss this."

While the negotiations between the two sides were in full swing, Chen Yu hid in a corner, happily calculating the accounts.

"This hot pot base only costs ten points per portion in the system mall."

Chen Yu counted on his fingers, "If converted into spirit stones, it would only be one hundred high-grade spirit stones..."

"Now it's selling for one million, two million..." Chen Yu grinned, "That's a huge profit."

Just as he was thinking about it, Lin Qingxue and Liu Ruyan came back at the same time.

"How is it?" Chen Yu asked.

"It's done." Lin Qingxue said, "The Immortal Realm has requested a thousand copies."

"Moyu wants two thousand copies," Liu Ruyan said, "and they also want exclusive distribution rights."

"So many?" Chen Yu's eyes widened. "Doesn't that mean..."

"Three billion high-quality spirit stones." Lin Qingxue said.

"Fifty billion high-grade spirit stones." Liu Ruyan said.

Chen Yu gasped. If that were the case, wouldn't he be making a fortune?

"Oh right." Liu Ruyan suddenly said, "They said they want the goods in three days."

"Three days?" Chen Yu was stunned. "So urgent?"

"They can't wait any longer." Lin Qingxue said, "and..."

"And what?"

“They said if the results are good, they will place more orders.”

Chen Yu looked at the cloth bag in his hand, then at the two women, and suddenly smiled: "It seems that I really need to study the new formula carefully tonight."

"You..." Lin Qingxue's face turned red again.

"For the development of the cultivation world." Liu Ruyan smiled and took their hands. "Let's go back to the secret room."

The three of them turned and walked towards the secret room. Xiao Cui's voice came from behind them: "Master Chen, someone else is coming!"

"who?"

"From the Demon Realm!"

Chen Yu paused and looked back, only to see a group of monsters falling from the sky.

"I'm really going to make a fortune now." Chen Yu muttered to himself, "But before that..."

He looked at the backs of the two women, a smile appearing on the corner of his mouth.

After all, researching new recipes is the serious business.
