“Are you alright?” After Cheng Yu came out of the room, Lan Ya stood up and went forward to inquire nervously.
“I’m fine. Why did you not go to work?” Cheng Yu sat down and ate the fried eggs Lan Ya had cooked.
“I’m worried that something might have happened to you. I will go later.”
“In the future, you have to cultivate according to how I guided you yesterday. Your strength now should be around Qi Training Realm middle stage, which is roughly the same realm as the dead Fang Wenxuan.”
“Ah? I am currently as powerful as that dead man?!” Lan Ya was surprised. Previously, in her eyes, Fang Wenxuan was extremely powerful, but she did not expect Cheng Yu had actually made her this powerful within a night.
“Of course not. You are only as powerful as him in terms of cultivation realm. But you have not learn any techniques yet. This also means that you have the power, but you can’t utilize it yet. You must cultivate properly. In the next few days, I will come over to guide you.
——————————————————————————————————————
After leaving the Lan Family’s villa, Cheng Yu went straight to Qin Canghai’s villa. This was the villa Cheng Yu had returned to him. When he arrived, the Qin Canghai trio was already in the villa waiting for him.
In the study room, Cheng Yu looked at the trio and said, ”Today, I called the three of you here to increase your power. However, I only have two of the pills. Therefore, I can only help two of you. I intend to help Qin Canghai and his second brother first. As for you, Wu Chang, you will have to wait for the next batch. As for why I called you over as well, it was because I do not wish you to overthink it. Now that I will increase their strength, I want you to take a look and learn from them so that when the time comes, I will no longer need to explain everything again.”
The Qin Canghai trio was filled with happiness. However, when the trio heard that only two among them could increase their strength, they could not help but feel regret, especially for Wu Chang. But after he heard the latter part of Cheng Yu’s words, his heart reached equilibrium again.
“These pills are Washing Marrow Pills. The two of you consume it first. I will help you absorb the efficacy of the pill,” Cheng Yu took out two Washing Marrow Pills and passed them to the brothers.
“Both of you sit cross-legged first. I will help you both simultaneously,” Cheng Yu sat behind them with a hand on each person’s back and started helping them to assimilate the efficacy of the pill.
Because they were martial artists, their constitutions were naturally a lot stronger than Lan Ya’s. The brothers will be a lot faster than Lan Ya at assimilating the efficacy of the pill, and this was totally unrelated to Cheng Yu helping them simultaneously. In total, Cheng Yu had only spent about an hour and a half to dissolve the pill in their bodies.
“You don’t have to be envious of them. Later, I will go and look for the medical herbs to refine this. Probably, by tomorrow, I will also help you promote your strength,” Cheng Yu instructed them to take a shower before telling Wu Chang.
“Thank you, Young Master Yu,” Wu Chang said delightedly.
“As long as you help me handle my matters well, there will naturally be a lot of benefits in the future.”
“Yes, yes, yes. Young Master Yu, we will definitely not let you be disappointed.”
“Alright. Now, I will pass the three of you another cultivation method. This is not the same as the breathing exercise I passed to you earlier, but instead is a real cultivation method. Since Qin Canghai and his second brother have already finish washing their bone marrow, I will leave behind a thread of Qi in your bodies. After that, you will just have to follow the cultivation method to cultivate accordingly.”
This time, Cheng Yu did not guide Qing Canghai and his brother on how to operate the cultivation method. After all, Lan Ya was Cheng Yu’s “girlfriend.” Their level of importance was at different levels.
Besides, they already had the experience from the breathing exercise. Every cultivator must have their own experiences and must not always rely on others for help. Even for Cheng Yu, before he was reincarnated, he also cultivated himself and no one had helped him before.
It was because inside Cheng Yu’s heart, he cared too much for Lan Ya and did not wish for anything to happen to her. So, he chose to guide her directly. For the other “girlfriends” Cheng Yu had, he would also do the same for them in the future.

“Teacher Yao. Let’s go and have lunch. I have something I wish to discuss with you,” He Jian sat down at his office table as he turned around and spoke to Yao Na.
“I’m sorry, Teacher He. I have some matters to attend to in the afternoon. If there’s anything, please wait until I have returned to tell me about it,” Yao Na kept her things as she went out of her office quickly. She hated He Jian’s pestering, so she always wished to think of an excuse to reject him.
“Hmph! I shall allow you to continue acting so noble and virtuous in front of me first. Wait until you are back. I will let you experience hell!” Looking at Yao Na leaving, He Jian thought evilly.
———————————————————————————————————————
“Why did you stop your car here?” After exiting the school premises, Yao Na looked all over the place and went into Cheng Yu’s car nervously. As if she was afraid someone would spot her.
“What are you afraid of? There isn’t anything to be secretive about, but if someone else saw you being so sneaky, it would only cause them to suspect there might be a problem with you,” Cheng Yu laughed at Yao Na’s fearful appearance.
“Who is being sneaky! A teacher getting into a student’s car is not a good thing to portray,” Yao Na quibbled while blushing.
“I guess you have not eaten, so let’s go and have a meal together. After eating, we will go to your hometown,” Cheng Yu no longer bickered with Yao Na as he knew that she was easily embarrassed.
“No need. I have already told my mom about us going back. She prepared lunch for us there.”
“Hehe. Mother-in-law is the best! What do you think we should bring back for your dad and mom this time?” Cheng Yu moved himself in front of Yao Na’s face and said.
“Who’s your mother-in-law! Don’t keep speaking nonsense!” Yao Na pushed Cheng Yu back and said ill-manneredly. ”As for what to buy, that depends on your intention with the gift.”
Even though her relationship with Cheng Yu was a little ambiguous, her parents had already take Cheng Yu as her boyfriend. When Yao Na went home on the previous weekend, her mother even pestered her about why Cheng Yu did not return home with her.
Despite the situation not being as her parents imagined, if Yao Na was able to let her mother feel happy, she didn’t mind Cheng Yu buying a present to show filial respect to her parents.
“Alright. Let’s go to the shopping mall and buy a couple things,” Cheng Yu drove his car towards the shopping mall in front and bought a few expensive tobacco, alcohol and food. As for why he didn’t choose any healthcare products? Of course there would be no need with the effectiveness of Cheng Yu’s pill!
———————————————————————————————————————
“XIao Yu. You are finally here. It’s been so long since you came and visited me,” Cheng Yu parked his car outside Yao Na’s house. Mother Yao immediately brought a group of people out happily.
“Haha! Auntie, for this period of time, I have been too busy and couldn’t find any free time. I’m very sorry. Auntie, your complexion is getting more and more glossy. It seems like you have gotten younger again!” When he saw Mother Yao was so enthusiastic, Cheng Yu was also very happy. After all, this person would be his future mother-in-law.
“Haha! All this is because of the pill Xiao Yu gave to me. After eating that pill, my body has grown healthier and all the chronic illnesses I had also disappeared. Even my three energies[1] have gotten better,” Mother Yao said happily.
Ever since she had taken Cheng Yu’s pill, not only did her body grow healthier, she even looked a lot younger than before, causing all her neighbors to be envious as Mother Yao had unexpectedly found a rich and capable son-in-law.
Especially after Qiang Zi’s father had also eaten Cheng Yu’s pill and recovered, the reputation Cheng Yu had in Village Yao was not small. Everyone would often go over to the Yao Family to fawn on them hoping to get to know Cheng Yu, and requesting him to refine some miraculous pills for them.
After they heard Cheng Yu was coming, all of them crowded themselves into the Yao Family house uninvited and waited.
“Mr. Cheng, thank you. Thank you for saving my life and even allowing my body to become so healthy. As we have nothing to repay you with, I only hope you will accept our kowtow this once,” At this moment, Grandpa Fu, who had been standing behind, brought Qiang Zi along with him and said. Taking this opportunity, they kneeled down.
“Aish! Old Fu, what are you doing? Didn’t you already give me some gift as a form of repayment? Let’s not mention about this ever again,” Originally, Cheng Yu saved him because it wasn’t difficult for him. There was a saying, ”Every act has its own consequences.” A Reversal Pill managed to allow him to get the information of Tianyuan Grass. Thus, the other party did not owe Cheng Yu anything. Instead, Cheng Yu should be the one who owed Old Fu. Naturally, the mortal would never be able to understand the importance of the grass to Cheng Yu.
“Everyone! Let’s talk later. Let’s go and have lunch first!” Mother Yao quickly said when she saw the awkward situation.
Cheng Yu went to his car and brought out the tobacco, alcohol and food. When they saw the packets of expensive tobacco and alcohol, their eyes turned red. As expected from someone rich. Just this tobacco and alcohol was already worth at least $10,000.
Nevertheless, Mother Yao and Father Yao were beaming with joy. The more they looked at this son-in-law, the more satisfied they felt. Whatever he did, he always gave them a lot of respect.
Today, because there were a lot of people having a meal together, everyone was very happy while eating. All of them were smoking the thousand dollar cigarettes bought by Cheng Yu. Only sorrow could be described after smoking it.
