Who Let Him Cultivate?!-Chapter 670 - 669 Elder Brother Lu Yang Speaks the Truth
Liu Xiangyu did not dare to tell Xu An about her true identity, so the two had never registered their marriage.
Xu An was not particular about these things. If his wife was unwilling, then let it be, no big deal.
Upon hearing this, the eyes of the three maids lit up.
Although Xu An and Liu Xiangyu had always referred to each other as husband and wife, it turned out they had never actually registered their marriage.
Indeed, to register a marriage at the government office, at the very least, both parties’ identities must be verified.
Since Benefactor did not know Liu Xiangyu was a Snake Demon, it meant they had not registered their marriage yet.
Then what kind of official wife are you?
Since you, Liu Xiangyu, did not register, does that not mean we are all on the same starting line?
The master is truly worthy of the title, seeing issues they could not see.
"As for the four of you taking turns to be intimate with Benefactor Xu, resulting in his insufficiency of Yang Qi, it’s beyond the scope of this poor monk’s abilities,"
"However, my senior brother here can solve your problems,"
Shi Chanzhen introduced Meng Jingzhou earnestly.
"My senior brother possesses Yang Invigorating Blood, which I am sure Liu Benefactor is not unfamiliar with."
"Benefactor Xu is a mortal, a single drop of Yang Invigorating Blood must be diluted by hundreds, if not thousands of times before consumption. In the long run, this poor monk recommends you ladies purchase several drops of Yang Invigorating Blood,"
Meng Jingzhou put on a serious face and took out several small bottles containing Yang Invigorating Blood.
"One hundred thousand Spirit Stones per drop."
He demanded a sky-high price.
After a hot sale on the black market, Meng Jingzhou realized he had sold them too cheaply.
This blood, from the strongest Single Body Spiritual Root of ancient times, with effects like invigorating Yang and strengthening kidneys, prolonging life, immunity to all poisons, enhancing memory, and improving physical constitution, was a marvellous item that you couldn’t buy even if you had Spirit Stones. One hundred thousand Spirit Stones per drop expensive? Not at all.
"I’ll buy five drops!"
Liu Xiangyu went all in, understanding that the three maids saw an opportunity and wanted to contend with her for the position of official wife.
If she lost her status as the official wife, how often she would have to compete with the three maids for her husband’s affection in the future would be determined by who bought more blood today.
"I’ll buy six drops!"
Xiao Cui shouted. The barbecue shop was doing well, and as the store manager, she had a substantial percentage cut, making her the wealthiest among the four women.
"I, I’ll buy three drops."
Xiao Zhu didn’t have much confidence, as she came from an unorthodox background and did not have many Spirit Stones.
As for Xiao Qiu, her situation was even sadder; she was a Spirit Device and didn’t have a single Spirit Stone.
Meng Jingzhou left behind fourteen small bottles and took back the rest, casually accepting one million four hundred thousand Spirit Stones.
Tsk, earning these Spirit Stones didn’t bring any sense of achievement at all.
"Then this poor monk will return to Benefactor Xu’s room with the three senior brothers, and wait until dawn,"
"Please clean up the traces of the fight in the courtyard, ladies."
Snow had fallen earlier thanks to Xiao Zhu, and the courtyard was still chilling everyone to the bone.
A few hours later, Xu An woke up feeling quite good.
"Did the three masters have any gains last night? I feel much more refreshed upon waking up today."
Meng Jingzhou thought to himself, of course, if it hadn’t been for the invigorating Yang Invigorating Blood you had last night, after being intimate with a ghost, a demon, and a spirit device, you wouldn’t even be able to get out of bed today.
"Amitabha, there were some gains last night, and the problem has been resolved. Benefactor will no longer suffer from insufficient Yang Qi."
Xu An’s eyes lit up with joy. The expert recommended by Elder Brother Zhong Ming was indeed formidable, "Thank you for your hard work, Master. Then, about the fee…"
"Five hundred taels of silver will suffice."
Xu An was surprised, not because it was expensive, but because the price was too cheap.
He had sought many experts, but none could solve his problem, yet the master fixed it in one night, and it only cost five hundred taels of silver?
For someone with an inheritance from his parents, five hundred taels of silver was nothing.
"Then why have I always been lacking energy?"
"When the time comes, Benefactor will know himself."
"Ah, oh."
The source of this c𝓸ntent is frёeweɓηovel.coɱ.
Xu An thought to himself that the master was still playing word games, all mysterious and secretive.
After tidying up his clothes, Xu An prepared to have breakfast and continue reading the sages’ books.
As soon as he stepped out the door, he saw his wife and three maids standing neatly at the entrance.
The four women said in unison:
"Husband\\ benefactor\\ master, I have actually been hiding something from you."
"In fact, I am a Snake Demon\\ a Ghost Cultivator\\ a Fox Demon\\ a Spirit Device."
The four women each showed their divine abilities and revealed their true forms: a several dozen feet long white snake, a ghost cultivator with a sinister wind swirling about, a fluffy fox, and a spirit device whose figure faded into a jade pendant.
Xu An’s eyes rolled back, and he fainted on the spot.
Lu Yang sighed, this courage just wasn’t enough.
But the following matters had nothing to do with them anymore.
The three of them took advantage of the sparsely populated streets in the early morning to return to the inn.

A pair of hidden eyes watched quietly as the trio’s figures disappeared into the inn, then turned to instruct their subordinates.
"Tell the boss, they’ve returned to the inn; it’s time to make a move."
After being tossed about all night, even the energy of the three of them felt exhausted and needed a good rest.
About an hour later, a knock came at Lu Yang’s door.
"Is anyone there?"
Lu Yang, sitting cross-legged, opened his eyes but still felt a bit sluggish; he hadn’t fully rested.
Who was looking for him?
Under the probe of his Spiritual Sense, he saw many people standing in the corridor, dressed in the style of government office personnel.
Lu Yang stood up and opened the door, facing a somewhat portly middle-aged man.
Upon seeing Lu Yang, the middle-aged man’s face broke into an enthusiastic smile.
"Assuming this must be Seek Dao Sect’s Lu Yang, allow me to introduce myself. My surname is Liu, and I am the City Lord of Chunjiang City."
Lu Yang was startled, how would the City Lord know about his existence?
Lu Yang suddenly realized—in front of Boss Hong, he had boasted, calling out his own title; it must have been disclosed during the interrogation of Boss Hong!
That was careless, as he was too focused on showing off at the time and didn’t consider the aftermath.
City Lord Liu also called Meng Jingzhou and Shi Chan from the neighboring rooms, inviting them all into Lu Yang’s room.
City Lord Liu said amiably, "For the three noble nephews to visit Chunjiang City without saying hello, we’re truly being treated as strangers."
"May I know if the three of you are here with a mission from the Immortal Sect?"
"Amitabha, we monks have come to Chunjiang City for some private matters."
Hearing it was a private matter, City Lord Liu’s smile grew even broader: "If the three noble nephews don’t mind, why not come to my residence for a simple meal tonight?"
If it’s a private matter, that’s great; I’ll quickly help you resolve your private matter so you can leave soon.
Suddenly, Lu Yang said, "Originally, we came for private affairs, but in Chunjiang City, we happened upon clues regarding the demonic sect."
Upon the mention of the demonic sect, City Lord Liu visibly tensed up: "Do you need me to dispatch men to assist?"
Lu Yang shook his head, declining City Lord Liu’s offer and seriously said, "We are investigating covertly. If the government office’s people also start to act, the situation would become complicated, with the risk of alerting the enemy."
"Based on the current clues, we’ve discovered traces of the Jiuyou Sect’s activities in Chunjiang City, and they’ve been active for some time. Our preliminary judgment is that the person leading the activities is a Ghost Cultivator who likes to consume the Yang Qi of men. There has already been one male victim, who was fortunate that we arrived in time.
He was spared from disaster and retained his life."
"We also discovered that this Ghost Cultivator was involved in a brawl between four Nascent Soul Stage beings, with various factions competing and refusing to yield, making the situation extremely complex."
"Senior Brother Shi Chan, isn’t that so?"
"Amitabha, monks do not tell lies; Elder Brother Lu Yang is correct."
