Chapter 305: Chapter 309 Sleeping in Each Other's Arms
Whether it was youthful arrogance or sheer whimsy, Chen Guan's words struck the conservative elders as outrageous, causing a long silence to descend upon the meeting room.
Chen Guan didn't mind, simply requiring the elders to fulfill their duties as he commanded.
In truth, he knew a great deal about the Eight Ancient Clans, including the conflict between the Ancient and Soul Clans. But he couldn't bring himself to discuss this.
Firstly, he couldn't explain the reasons, and remaining vague would only arouse suspicion.
Secondly, he wasn't sure whether the Ancient Clans would ultimately be friends or enemies, and revealing too many secrets would only backfire.
After instructing the elders on what they needed to do, Chen Guan and the others departed the Small Dan Tower.
"For over half a month now, I've had people keeping an eye on the Soul Palace. Strangely, they haven't made any moves. I suspect they're plotting something deeper. While you have the Great Elder to protect you, for the time being, try not to leave the Dan Domain. Focus on your cultivation. Leave everything else to us old men."
As Chen Guan prepared to return to Qingce Manor, Xuan Kongzi called him back, offering serious instructions.
Without waiting for a response, he retreated into his study, hands behind his back.
Chen Guan's bold pronouncements had genuinely astonished him. For the first time, Xuan Kongzi realized this disciple's ambitions were greater than he'd imagined!
Given this, as a teacher, he must make some preparations. He didn't ask for much help, but at least he couldn't be a drag.
Watching Xuan Kongzi enter the room, Chen Guan bowed slightly before heading back to Qingce Manor.
...
As Xuankongzi had said, over half a month had passed since his departure, and Qingce Manor remained as peaceful as ever. From an ordinary perspective, it seemed much like
any other manor, save for a slightly smaller population.
His spiritual power enveloped the manor, capturing every scene within.
The Tang siblings were diligently cultivating, though judging by their expressions, the elder brother was noticeably more serious than the more lively sister.
The old Poison Monster, familiar with the area, was researching poisons in the dark room beneath Qingce Manor.
Zi Yan hid outside the Poison Monster's dark room, observing from behind the Divine Son.
Little Medical Fairy leaned against the window, resting her delicate chin in a daze, her breath rising and falling slightly, a sign of an impending breakthrough. Venerable
Skyfire, who had escorted Master Yun and his disciples to the Flower Sect, had also returned and was sitting at the stone table in the courtyard, enjoying a leisurely drink.
Medusa, in her room, lay on her side on the bed, teasing Little Qingyan with a look of fondness.
Watching this harmonious scene, Chen Guan couldn't help but smile. He then vanished into thin air, reappearing in Medusa's room.
Medusa was slightly startled by the sudden presence of someone in the room. After seeing her face clearly, she gave her a generous roll of the eyes, and having tried to straighten herself up, she relaxed again.
"How was it?"
"It was worth the trip."
By then, their tacit understanding had been established, and Chen Guan, knowing what she was asking, replied with a smile. He then moved to lie down behind Medusa, cradling her soft body. Looking at his little princess, he recounted everything that had happened in the Little Dan Tower, including the Ninth-Grade Treasure Pill and its effects.
Medusa listened silently until she caught a whiff of the refreshing aroma, at which point she turned back.
"Is this the Ninth-Grade Treasure Pill you refined?"
A nimble blue phoenix danced around the room, resembling a living being. If it weren't for the startling fragrance, there wouldn't be any trace of the elixir.
What she didn't know was that the fragrance of this elixir could actually be hidden. It was just that the current elixir had just been born and was relatively pure.
Chen Guanqing nodded, "It will be useful to you."

Hearing this, before Medusa could react, the flying Qingluan was suddenly startled and shrank into the corner with a vigilant look. If the room had not been sealed long ago, it would have probably broken out.
As the saying goes, kindness cannot command an army, and righteousness cannot command wealth. Medusa was able to lead the Serpent People to stand firm in the northwest and single-handedly support the Tianmeng. She would not be deceived by the appearance of this elixir and feel pity.
However, after a brief thought, she still shook her head.
"Give it to Elder Yao. The stronger Elder Yao is, the better it is for us. And only Elder Yao can bring out its effect relatively perfectly. I am only at the Dou Zong level now, which is too wasteful."
Upon hearing this, Qingluan, who was huddled in the corner, became even more furry and trembling. She looked so weak, pitiful, and helpless that Chen Guan laughed out loud.
"Ninth-grade precious pills can't be viewed conventionally. Consuming them isn't enough. Just take some 'blood' from them. We all get a share. Its effectiveness is enough to boost our cultivation speed."
"Also, this Sacred Heart Pill can only be taken once per person. Elder Yao can't fully utilize its effects now. I'll refine another one when Elder Yao reaches peak Dou Zun. As for this one, keep it as a reminder."
It's just a matter of taking some blood. That's all.
Qing Luan's tension visibly faded, and she relaxed. Like a rooster returning from victory, she paced the room proudly and triumphantly.
Medusa ignored it, but another thought occurred to her.
"What about Yun Yun? Have someone send her over?"
"No need. She has her own opportunities and doesn't need this little boost. You'll be surprised when you see her again," Chen Guan shook his head.
Compared to this slight increase in cultivation speed, Yun Yun's opportunities within the Flower Sect were truly outrageous. Even Chen Guan was envious.
To ensure this opportunity remained intact, Chen Guan didn't intend to interfere in the slightest. He'd instructed Yun Yun to keep their relationship a secret, even their relationship. As long as she kept quiet, given the Hua Sect's reclusive nature, it was hard to imagine Yun Yun had such a background.
This way, everyone benefited, and the future looked promising.
No, it seemed he'd forgotten about Nalan Yanran...
After a moment's pause, Chen Guan quickly relaxed. At worst, he'd just have
to take better care of her in the future. After all, he was her master-disciple, so it was only natural.
"By the way, I'll leave this puppet under your control. After being baptized by the Black Demonic Thunder, it's now capable of fighting even a six-star Dou Zun. It's our trump card."
As he spoke, Chen Guan unsheathed the puppet, its powerful aura reminiscent of a completely different person.
"What about you?" Medusa turned around.
"I plan to spend the next two months refining elixirs, preparing some for everyone, and then I'll go into seclusion, striving to reach the next level."
Chen Guan had already made plans for his own cultivation.
This retreat is the final preparation for the ancient ruins.
With the storm gathering, a clash with the Soul Palace is inevitable, so naturally, the stronger the better.
"Alright, I'm also nearing a breakthrough and planning a retreat. Let's go together, though. In that case, I'll have to ask Little Medical Fairy and the others to help take care of Qingyan."
"That's fine. Our daughter isn't like an ordinary baby. There's no need to worry too much. There's no need to rush your cultivation either. Just let it flow. I've been gathering information about the Seven-Colored Sky-Swallowing Python for a while now, and I've already got some clues. Once the information is confirmed, I'll be determined to capture it. Then, your strength will soar."
Medusa nodded slightly, responding with a soft, gentle hum. Her
warm breath bathed Chen Guan's face. Seeing her pretty face so close to him, Chen Guan felt a surge of warmth in his heart. He decisively put away the playful Qingluan and, using his spiritual power, carried his sleeping daughter to the next room...
