In the evening, during dinner, he did not see his wife.
On his way back to his room, as he passed by the lakeside pavilion of the mansion, he saw a white figure standing on the pavilion, surrounded by a faint golden halo.
Qin Feng had an impression of this golden light.
Back in the Myriad Sword Sect, when his wife activated the domination of heaven and earth to withstand the destructive annihilation thunder, there was a shower of that golden light.
According to the master, it was an aura left over from ancient times.
The night breeze lifted the lady’s hair.
Under the pale white moonlight, Liu Jianli was so beautiful that she didn’t look like a mortal.
With every breath she took, ripples appeared on the surface of the lake. Water vapor rose like jade beads, floating and reflecting the moonlight, shining brightly.
After a long time, the water droplets returned to the lake, and the golden light around Liu Jianli gradually faded.
She opened her eyes and immediately felt Qin Feng’s presence. Her vermilion lips curved slightly, then she tiptoed over and gently landed next to Qin Feng.“When did you get back?”
“I’ve been back for a while. I saw you practicing, so I didn’t bother you. Have you had dinner?” Qin Feng asked.
Liu Jianli slightly shook her head.
Qin Feng scolded, “People are made of iron, and food is made of steel. No matter how important cultivation is, you can’t forget to eat. What do you want to eat? I’ll make it for you.”
Upon hearing this, Liu Jianli suddenly remembered the time in Jinyang City, the steaming bowl of noodles that she still couldn’t forget.
Perhaps it was from that time that an extra figure appeared in her heart.
“I want to eat noodles,” Liu Jianli said quietly.
Qin Feng was stunned for a moment, “All right, I’ll cook noodles for you.”
Inside the house where the two of them lived, Liu Jianli held a bowl of noodles, eating with extreme elegance.
After the other party finished eating, Qin Feng took out some fluorescent round beads from his arms and placed them on the table.
“What are they?” Liu Jianli asked curiously.
“This is a Spirit Bead formed by collecting spiritual energy. Earlier, you mentioned that you wanted to reach the Second Rank and needed to continuously absorb spiritual energy.”
“This thing will be of great benefit to you.”
The biggest inconvenience of coming to the Imperial City is that without the support of the Spirit Gathering Formation, the family members’ cultivation progress will be much slower.
Before arriving, Qin Feng also thought about repeating the process and setting up a Spirit Gathering Formation in Imperial City to intercept some spiritual energy for the Qin family.
After all, Imperial City was the place with the most gathered dragon veins, and the attracted spiritual energy was naturally incomparable to Jinyang City.
However, after careful consideration, he dismissed this idea.
Imperial City isn’t like Jinyang City, it’s under the Emperor’s feet, and there are countless mysterious figures there.
If the act of stealing spiritual energy is discovered, it could cost him his life!
Besides, with Xiao Bai’s existence, he can return to Jinyang City regularly to get Spirit Beads and bring them back for his family to absorb without taking such a big risk.
Liu Jianli took the Spirit Bead and held it in her hand, and the Spirit Bead quickly dissipated at a visible speed.
Qin Feng was surprised; for him, one Spirit Bead could be absorbed for about a month, but at this rate, it might be completely absorbed in one night.
In that case, the few Spirit Beads he had given her earlier wouldn’t be enough for her.
He took out all the supplies from the storage ring and counted them carefully, thirty-four in total.
‘Luckily, before I left, I secretly used Xiao Bai’s labor without Sister Mo’s knowledge.’ Qin Feng secretly rejoiced, then took out twenty and handed them to Liu Jianli.
He had to give the rest to his second brother, Black Charcoal Head, and Ningshuang, and keep a few for himself.
“You can use these for now; later, I’ll go back to Jinyang City and get more.”
“Thank you.”
On the second day, Qin Feng, accompanied by Ningshuang, returned to the Divine Workshop and handed over the address of the restaurant and the design drawings to Huo Yuan.
Huo Yuan obviously didn’t expect the restaurant to be selected so quickly. As he took the things, his expression was a bit stiff. He was still planning to improve the soaring wings.
“I have the promissory note from yesterday. Do you want to back out?” Qin Feng raised an eyebrow.
“How can that be, Master Qin? I will have people renovate the restaurant for you, and I guarantee that it will be completed as soon as possible!” Huo Yuan patted his chest and made a solemn promise, then turned around and hurried away.
His demeanor seemed as if he didn’t want to waste a single moment.
The matter of the restaurant was entrusted to the group of Craft Kings from the Divine Workshop. Qin Feng could trust them completely.
However, he didn’t leave right away. Instead, he was led by someone to meet the old man in the attic.
As soon as he entered the hall, a wave of heat rushed towards him.
Qin Feng even thought that he had entered a sauna.
The sweat on his forehead dripped down in an instant, and even Lan Ningshung, a sixth-level martial artist, was reddened by the heat.
However, looking at the old man sitting on the floor, he seemed unfazed, tinkering with the object in his hand, constantly assembling and refining it.
‘At such a high temperature, the old man didn’t even sweat?” Qin Feng was a bit surprised.
Only high-level martial artists could control their bodies to such an extent.
When he used his X-ray ability to see inside the old man’s body, the majestic golden qi almost blinded his eyes.
Qin Feng discovered something amazing. The qi inside the old man’s body was even more concentrated than his own wife’s.
Does this mean that Elder Master Yuan’s cultivation might have reached the peak of the third stage, or even the second stage?
Indeed, someone who could be the master of the Divine Workshop couldn’t possibly be an ordinary person.
The old man put down the object in his hands and looked up: “Why are you looking for me here?”
Qin Feng replied, “I want to borrow a refining room from the old man and ask for some materials.”
As he said this, Qin Feng handed over the list of materials in his arms. The things listed were based on the formulas he remembered for these explosives.
In this era, gunpowder had not been invented yet.
The old man looked at the materials above and furrowed his brow, “What are you going to do with these things?”
“The junior has an idea to fuse these things together and create a formidable deadly weapon.”
“A weapon?” Yuan Zhai glanced sideways.
Qin Feng shook his head, “I called this thing Gunpowder. It doesn’t need the stimulation of Literature Qi, Yin Qi, or Martial Qi; even ordinary people can use it.”
Upon hearing this, Yuan Zhai showed a strange expression.
He didn’t ask any more questions, but continued to tinker with the items in his hand and said, “There are many empty refining rooms on the second floor of the attic. Choose one of them and I’ll have someone bring you the materials you need.”
“Thank you, Elder Yuan.” Qin Feng folded his hands and was about to take Ningshuang away.
However, he suddenly thought of something and asked again, “May I ask if the refining rooms are sturdy enough? When I conduct experiments, the noise might be quite loud.”
Yuan Zhai raised his head, “How loud exactly?”
Qin Feng rubbed his chin and gave a strange answer, “The specific amount, even the junior is not sure. It might depend on luck.”
After a moment of pondering, Elder Yuan changed his tone, “Then go to the first floor attic, the refining room with a red blazing fire symbol at the entrance. It’s strong enough to withstand a full-force strike from a fifth-level martial artist.”
Withstanding a fifth-level martial artist’s full-force strike should be enough. Qin Feng nodded, expressed his gratitude, and took his leave.
