Chapter 992: Chapter 303: Silver-Haired Doll! Spiritual Painting Avatar!

"Thank you!"

Hugging the umbrella like an instrument, she bowed deeply, looking very obedient and well-behaved.

Yuchi chuckled, "No problem, it’s just a small matter."

"And who might this be?"

He glanced at another woman sitting in the courtyard.

Qi Baiyu snapped back to reality, holding the umbrella, and led Yuchi into the courtyard.

She then addressed the woman who had already stood up and was smiling at Yuchi:

"Young Master Yuchi, this is my third sister Qi Hongyu."

"Sister Hongyu, this is the Young Master Yuchi I’ve mentioned to you before. Didn’t you say you wanted to meet him and see what he looks like? Well, here he is."

So she is Qi Hongyu...

Yuchi noted her appearance, indeed more mature than Qi Baiyu, looking about twenty-five or six years old.

Is her talent and spirit root really Ninth-Grade? It’s truly terrifying, and she’s already at the Core Formation Stage, between the seventh to ninth level, at such a young age?

No, no, no.

She just looks young; in reality, she must be at least a hundred years old. After all, Yuluo and Yinghan are like that; cultivation doesn’t happen overnight.

As Yuchi gazed at Qi Hongyu, she was also examining him.

So this is Yuchi...

He’s a Nascent Soul Stage cultivator? Looks so young, and although he’s not extraordinarily handsome—I’ve seen much more handsome young men—the overall feeling he gives is different, with eyes that seem to hide stories and secrets, appearing slightly profound.

Is it true that those notorious cultivators are always like this? 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢

Yes, he looks about as young as my father, both appearing as youthful lads, and they each look like honest fellows at first glance.

How could they actually be honest?

Qi Hongyu subtly showed a surprised expression, and like Qi Baiyu, she deeply bowed and gently said to Yuchi, "Young Master Yuchi, hello, I’m Hongyu, paying my respects to you!"

"You’re too kind."

Yuchi nodded at her with a smile, refraining from extending his hand to support her.

However, it was a bit regrettable.

It’s unlikely that Qi Hongyu could be easily persuaded to join a sect; she’s from a large family that has already invested heavily with silver, having certainly consumed numerous Spirit Root Pills.

According to Little Sister Luohua’s rate of consuming pills, I suspect this Ninth-Grade Spirit Root requires at least ten million taels of silver, meaning she needs about ten million-gold silver elixirs. Would the Qi family spend millions to cultivate a daughter and then let her be easily persuaded to join the Ascension Gate?

Impossible... The entire family is like that; they’re all wealthy. It seems those who handle interstate deliveries must be quite bold, yet not just anyone can send deliveries directly to another continent; strong skills are required.

"Miss Hongyu, this is our first meeting, and I didn’t bring you a gift. I have something rather hastily prepared, but I hope you’ll accept it."

Yuchi smiled as he retrieved an elixir from the storage ring.

This elixir is for the Core Formation Stage, perfect for someone like Qi Hongyu at the seventh to ninth levels of this stage.

Elixirs are valuable currency right now, and even if she doesn’t lack them, it’s more effective than giving flowers.

Indeed.

Yuchi honestly wanted to gain some favor with the Qi family; having more friends in the State Capital is better than making enemies everywhere like a fool. Besides, he felt quite intrigued—Dongran is dedicated to cultivation and, with her Ninth-Grade talent, her cultivation speed is astonishing. If Qi Hongyu were added, how wonderful would that be?

"Thank you!"

Qi Hongyu, unaware of Yuchi’s ulterior motives, smiled gracefully and said, "Young Master, you’re so thoughtful!"

Looking as if in the bloom of youth, her beautiful eyes gazed at Yuchi, saying, "I truly like it."

"Ah, well..."

Yuchi glanced at her radiant appearance, secretly swallowing.

Could it be that all four Qi sisters are enchantresses?

Oh, is the Qi family’s goal to create gods? Is Ninth-Grade talent rare? It really is, for naturally occurring Ninth-Grade talents are nearly miraculous. But are there many manufactured Ninth-Grade talents? Quite a number indeed, I suspect there are more Ninth-Grade cultivators in the State Capital than in the entire Third State.

And the probability is quite high.

Whoever could marry these four sister blossoms, their life would be complete, with no more concerns needed... Yuchi then took out ten Foundation Establishment Stage elixirs and handed them to Qi Baiyu: "Baiyu, I’m not sure what you like, so I hope you’ll like these little things."

With her status, just giving one elixir wouldn’t suffice. Since I’ve given one Core Formation elixir to Qi Hongyu, I must give ten Foundation Establishment ones to Baiyu.

Qi Baiyu smiled brightly, accepting the elixirs and promptly brewing a cup of tea for Yuchi: "Then Baiyu gratefully accepts!"
