Chapter 83 – Two women meet


In the grilled fish shop.

 

Mo Simin looked at Qing Nv sitting opposite her, then glanced at Yan Bingxuan beside her, and finally looked at Chen Mobai between the two women. She couldn't understand how he could be so bold!

 

"Here, this is the black sturgeon that I specially had someone bring from my hometown. It tastes even better than the carp we had last time."

 

During this period of time, Chen Mobai had been on Qingguang Island and didn't have time to return to the Water Mansion. Therefore, he could only choose the best-tasting fish from the seafood market on the island. It was said that the taste was comparable to the Bi Xue Carp, and it could enhance the effect of Qi Refining after eating it.

 

Chen Mobai had inquired about it. Even in the Tianhe Realm, the Bi Xue Carp, this famous dish, was not affordable for ordinary cultivators.

 

The fish fry bought by Liu Lengpei back then was worth one spiritual stone each, and after being carefully fed and cultivated into a first-grade inferior fish, it was sold in the market for ten spiritual stones.

 

If you ordered this dish at the Tiancan Building in Nanxi Market, it would cost fifty spiritual stones.

 

The reason why it was so expensive was mainly because after eating this dish cooked by the chef at the Tiancan Building, cultivators who practiced water attribute techniques could greatly increase their Qi Refining speed within a week.

 

Many people thought it was because of the excellent skills of the immortal chef, but Chen Mobai knew that it was mainly because the ingredients of the Bi Xue Carp itself were good. The cultivators in the Tianhe Realm didn't realize that the Bi Xue Carp could enhance their water spiritual root. They only regarded it as a precious ingredient.

 

But thinking about it this way, Chen Mobai felt heartache. The Bi Xue Carp he had eaten in the Water Mansion, even at cost price, was already several hundred spiritual stones.

 

But then he thought again, this cultivation of Bi Xue Carp was the unique skill of the Liu family, a cultivation family in the Yun Kingdom. If he went to sell fish in the Nanxi Market, he might be ambushed by the Liu family the next day.

 

In this case, it was best to eat it himself.

 

This black sturgeon was also a specialty of the Dream Swamp. The meat was tender and Chen Mobai had tried it in his own wooden house. Even if it was simply boiled, he could finish the fish soup.

 

And today, with the secret recipe of the grilled fish shop owner and the delicious taste from the Tianhe Realm, it was so delicious that even Yan Bingxuan, who always paid attention to her appearance, couldn't help but eat with relish.

 

Chen Mobai was a little slow with his chopsticks, and he saw that the three female classmates had only left some side dishes and fish bones for him.

 

Fortunately, he had considered that Qing Nv liked to eat, so he brought two fish this time. When the owner served the second fish, he no longer held back and quickly grabbed the most tender piece. Under the cold gaze of the three women, he took a bite.

 

Delicious!

 

After finishing the grilled fish, the three women began to tidy up themselves in a reserved manner.

 

"This shop is good. We can come again next time."

 

Yan Bingxuan thought it was because of the owner's skills, but Qing Nv immediately explained that it was because of the good ingredients Chen Mobai brought.

 

Mo Simin looked at the two women and suddenly kicked Chen Mobai. He looked at her inexplicably, and the class monitor immediately gestured with her eyes, urging him to speak and end this gathering. She was afraid that if they stayed here any longer, something unexpected might happen.

 

Coincidentally, Chen Mobai also planned to hurry back to the Tianhe Realm to continue honing his combat skills. Following her suggestion, he said they would meet again next time.

 

"By the way, this is a first-grade superior Qi-boosting spiritual water that I refined during this period."

 

Before leaving, Qing Nv suddenly took out twelve glass tubes from her bag, tied them together, and inside were colorless and transparent spiritual water, making Chen Mobai smile with joy.

 

"You've worked hard. Without this thing, my cultivation progress has been much slower recently."

 

After earning money in the Dream Swamp, Chen Mobai bought ten main ingredients for refining Qi-boosting spiritual water at the Lou family's Four Qi Pavilion branch on Qingguang Island. He also bought some used spiritual stones and went to the Diyuan Star to hand them over to Qing Nv. He also bought some talismans online.

 

For the same main and auxiliary ingredients, if they were used to refine first-grade superior Qi-boosting spiritual water, at most, only five tubes could be mixed.

 

But the market price was much higher, with a price of 1000 Good Deeds per tube at the Immortal Gate flagship store.

 

After reaching the seventh level of Qi Refining, when Chen Mobai took a first-grade medium Qi-boosting spiritual water, his cultivation efficiency was only two or three times higher, which he naturally looked down upon. Previously, Qing Nv's success rate in refining was only ten percent due to lack of experience, but with his abundant supply of raw materials and the help of Lingcui, she finally crossed that threshold recently.

 

"Now my success rate in refining has reached seventy to eighty percent. If the medicinal materials are sufficient, I should be able to refine one hundred tubes for you before I go to the Jumang Taoist Academy, which will be enough for you to cultivate to the ninth level of Qi Refining."

 

When Qing Nv said this, she pushed the twelve tubes of first-grade superior Qi-boosting spiritual water on the table in front of Chen Mobai, her eyes full of smiles.

 

"Great, I bought ten more sets of medicinal materials online. Come with me to get them at home. Class monitor, Yan Bingxuan, let's go first."

 

Chen Mobai greeted them like this under Mo Simin's widened eyes and incredulous gaze, then happily took Qing Nv home.

 

"Why is this person so bold!"After Chen Mobai left, Mo Simin suddenly couldn't help but scream. She had never seen such an insensitive man before.

 

"Let's go too, or we'll miss the bus."

 

Yan Bingxuan stood up calmly, her emotions completely concealed.

 

"Aren't you angry at all? I swear, if I could beat him, I would have taught him a lesson today."

 

Mo Simin was greatly upset, breathing rapidly as she walked and cursed alongside Yan Bingxuan.

 

"What's wrong? You don't really think we were dating, do you? I've told you, we're just classmates."

 

Hearing her best friend's incessant complaints, Yan Bingxuan sighed and interrupted her.

 

"Even if you're just classmates, how could he invite another girl while he's treating you to a meal? Even if that person is his girlfriend, what is he trying to do, show off?"

 

Yan Bingxuan felt that Mo Simin's thinking was off. It was just a meal, and it was more fun to invite friends to join. Besides, Chen Mobai had also said that Qing Nv was just a good friend of his.

 

What's wrong with inviting another girl?

 

Aren't you a girl too!

 

Mo Simin was stunned by Yan Bingxuan's logic. She thought about Chen Mobai again and felt that she was the most abnormal one among them.

 

It could only be said that people with similar thoughts would indeed attract each other.

 

After realizing this, Mo Simin immediately shut up.

 

Don't invite me to any of your activities in the future. If I join your team building activities a few more times, my values and thoughts will probably be shattered and reshaped.

 

However, Qing Nv seemed to be a normal person like herself. Was she deliberately showing off just now to attract Chen Mobai's attention?

 

What a pity, such a good spiritual root, why did she fall for him?
