    Chapter 37: Little Luo Dao You, Are You Here for Some Inspiration?

    Yu Yi Tower and Tian Lai Tower are the two flagship establishments of Tian Xiang Tower.

    The girls here sell their art, not their bodies.

    Of course, if a high-level cultivator takes a liking to one, or someone throws down enough spiritual stones, that’s a different matter.

    You can’t stop the girls from pursuing a brighter future, can you!

    The reason why they can achieve such great fame in such a disreputable place naturally has its reasons.

    Just think about it, female cultivators who have achieved success in Qi Refining, as long as they take good care of themselves, will never be ugly.

    If they also possess exquisite dance skills or a beautiful singing voice, combined with spells and techniques, using spiritual energy to enhance their performance, the scene would be incredibly beautiful.

    And so, Luo Chen stood outside the tower, appreciating a dance performance he had never seen in his past or present lives.

    Five female cultivators, wearing exquisite and beautiful dresses, danced gracefully on a high platform in the tower.

    Sometimes they would flutter into the air, sometimes they would land gently.

    With their wide sleeves swirling, mist would rise, as if they were in a fairyland.

    And these female cultivators were indeed like fairies in a fairyland.

    After the performance, Luo Chen couldn’t help but mutter.

    “No wonder those cultivators rush to Tian Xiang Tower after earning spiritual stones. Why didn’t anyone tell me about such beautiful dances sooner!”

    Gu Caiyi arrived outside the tower and saw Luo Chen squatting on the ground drawing circles.

    “What are you doing?”

    Luo Chen looked up, looking pitifully at the fairy.

    “Caiyi jie jie (elder sister), I’m your younger brother, right!”

    “Uh…”

    “As your younger brother, I really want to support your work. Can I come and see you off to work every day? And observe your dance practice?”

    Gu Caiyi was a little confused. What was this all about?

    After thinking for a moment, she covered her mouth and chuckled, “You wouldn’t be trying to mooch off Tian Xiang Tower’s spiritual energy, would you?”

    “Of course not!” Luo Chen declared righteously. “I’m not that kind of person. I’m just worried that during your commute, your crazy fans might do something bad to you.”

    “Don’t worry, I’m a Qi Refining Eighth Layer cultivator after all, ordinary troublemakers aren’t worth mentioning.”

    Gu Caiyi shook her head and added, “Besides, it’s not like you can’t come in. You just need to pay five spiritual stones as an entrance fee every night, and you can watch the dancing to your heart’s content.”

    Five spiritual stones!

    Luo Chen stood up abruptly. “Caiyi Dao You, time is money, please take me to see Xiangxiang girl! I have a big deal to discuss with her.”

    “Hehe, come with me!”

    In the waterside pavilion.

    In an exquisitely shaped incense burner, a calming incense was burning gently.

    Gu Caiyi sat down by the pavilion on her own, using bait to feed the goldfish.

    Luo Chen sat down in front of a girl who was even more beautiful than Gu Caiyi.

    Of course, Luo Chen would never treat the other party as a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl.

    As far as he knew, this Xiangxiang girl had been cultivating for over twenty years, so her real age must be thirty or forty!

    It’s just that she looks a bit youthful.

    Youthful aesthetics are not advisable; he, Luo Chen, still prefers Caiyi jie jie’s type.

    Moreover, the other party was a Qi Refining Ninth Layer cultivator, he had to be careful.

    “You’re Caiyi’s neighbor?”

    “Your neighbor, Little Luo, is me.”

    “I heard you make a living by alchemy?”

    “A trifling skill, barely enough to make ends meet.”

    “But just relying on Valley-Clearing Powder, it would be difficult to live in the Inner City for long, right?”

    Luo Chen fell silent; he found something wrong with this Xiangxiang girl.

    Wasn’t she selling a used alchemy furnace today?

    Why was she asking so many questions?

    Yu Xiang smiled slightly, “I’m curious, what kind of elixir did you refine using that inferior spirit iron pot that allows you to earn enough spiritual stones?”

    “This…” Luo Chen was a little embarrassed.

    The All-妙 Pills were a bestseller, and the sufferers included some of the female cultivators from Tian Xiang Tower. Of course, they also benefited from it.

    But it felt a little strange to admit in front of others that he was the one who refined them.

    “I’m not asking for nothing. Sell me one, just to satisfy my curiosity. I’ll buy it for fifty spiritual stones, let’s consider it as making friends.”

    Yu Xiang gestured, and a purple alchemy furnace about half a person’s height landed in the pavilion.

    Dong!

    Luo Chen’s gaze was instantly captivated.

    A Purple Cloud Copper Furnace, a First-Rank Lower-Grade artifact!

    Made in Tian Fan City, sold by Wan Bao Building, it was definitely not some three-no-name product.

    “Making friends, in the future, if this little lady has any questions about alchemy, she can have another person to discuss it with.”

    Luo Chen stared fixedly at the Purple Cloud Copper Furnace and casually said, “My elixir sells for five spiritual stones each; you’re buying it for fifty, quite a loss for you.”

    “I never consider loss or gain when making friends.” Yu Xiang smiled, “Besides, your alchemy skills are worth a proper furnace.”

    At this point, what else could be said?

    Anyway, Luo Chen wasn’t at a loss; he decided to have this Dao companion!

    He quickly took out two hundred and fifty spiritual stones, plus a bottle of All-妙 Pills.

    “This elixir is called All-妙 Pill, its medicinal properties are mild, with effects of invigorating yang, enchanting the mind. It also contains a large amount of spiritual energy, which can replace the cultivator’s essence during intimate moments. One should not take more than three a day, as excessive consumption could disrupt the lower gate’s golden lock. At the same time, this elixir has a slight aphrodisiac effect on female cultivators, not recommended for use.”

    It’s rare that Luo Chen described the details of the All-妙 Pills in detail once.

    There were no empty words about strengthening the body and nourishing the essence, those were merely sales tactics to deceive buyers.

    After finishing in one breath, Luo Chen stood up, put the Purple Cloud Copper Furnace into his storage bag, bowed slightly, and left gracefully.

    Looking at his graceful back, and then at the bottle of elixir on the table, Yu Xiang was a little dazed.

    I spent fifty spiritual stones to buy a bottle of male cultivator’s invigorating yang medicine?

    She turned to look at Gu Caiyi; the latter’s hand was outside the railing, the bait already gone.

    Her expression was also a little unbelievable.

    Yu Xiang’s expression was strange, “Caiyi, your neighbor’s elixir is a little… unconventional!”

    Gu Caiyi stiffened her lips and said, “It’s probably because of the hardships of life!”

    “I introduced the elixir wholeheartedly at that time, my expression should have been very serious, they shouldn’t think of me as a frivolous cultivator, right!”

    Luo Chen recalled the conversation and thought he should have left a good impression on Xiangxiang girl.

    Perhaps there would be more opportunities to discuss alchemy, enter Tian Xiang Tower to mooch off the spiritual energy, and watch Caiyi’s dance.

    Leaving Tian Xiang Tower, he found that it was already dark, and the tower was already decorated with lights and lanterns; pretty girls were coming and going.

    Some of the male cultivators coming from outside were no longer as immortal and refined as before.

    Luo Chen scoffed, a bunch of weak-willed, pleasure-seeking wastes!

    I and they, are definitely not the same kind of people!

    “Is that Little Luo Dao You?”

    A hesitant greeting came from the side.

    Luo Chen subconsciously looked over and saw his old customer, Zeng Wen, embracing two girls, looking at him uncertainly.

    Luo Chen swallowed, “Zeng Dao You, you’ve mistaken me.”

    While chatting with Xiangxiang girl, he naturally removed his black veil and hat.

    When he came out, he forgot to put it back on.

    A blunder!

    Zeng Wen let go of the woman beside him and enthusiastically grabbed Luo Chen’s hand.

    “Oh, I knew I wasn’t wrong. Little Luo Dao You, what a coincidence today, are you here for some inspiration?”

    “Uh…”

    “Could it be that you came to test the effects of the All-妙 Pills personally?” Zeng Wen’s eyes lit up, he patted Luo Chen’s shoulder emotionally, “I didn’t expect Little Luo Dao You to be so thoughtful. Last time, you said the All-妙 Pills still had room for improvement, I guess you are here to fill in the gaps.”

    Luo Chen’s proud thick-skinned nature faltered under the old customer’s emotion.

    When Zeng Wen enthusiastically invited him to enjoy wine and appreciate the beauties, Luo Chen finally couldn’t take it anymore.

    “The problem has been found, there will be better All-妙 Pills on sale in the future. Zeng Dao You, I’ll take my leave.”

    After saying that, Luo Chen fled in a panic.

    Looking at his departing figure, Zeng Wen sighed.

    “I know a few independent cultivators who practice alchemy, but none are as responsible as Little Luo Dao You. Indeed, my choice of him was utterly correct.”
