"Third Young Lady, have you arranged for them" Xianyao asked.

The Third Miss South Palace nodded and then looked at the trio of Guxing and asked. To say that it was normal for Guxing to be training was understandable, but why were even the Eldest and Second Misses also training This should have been when they were supposed to be talking.

She guessed that this might be because Xianyao had given them something good, which is why they were training.

At this moment, she felt a bit sentimental. These good things would already feel lucky if there was just once or twice, but Xianyao kept giving. Under these circumstances, if the three of them didn't get stronger, it would be hard to bear.

"Mm-hmm, they are absorbing Dragon Blood Pills. Why don’t you take one too It’ll do you some good," Xianyao took out a Dragon Blood Pill. This thing was not particularly useful for Eatie, yet he still gave it away; let alone the Third Miss South Palace.

The blood qi of a妖獸was incomparably stronger than that of humans, something that humans could never match.

"What is a Dragon Blood Pill" The Third Miss South Palace asked curiously while taking the pill and swallowing it.

“It’s an elixir refined from dragon blood stones. Legend has it that dragon blood stones are transformed from the essence of ancient dragons, but I’m not sure if this is true. Anyway, Dragon Blood Pills can increase a person’s blood qi; they’re rare treasures.” Xianyao explained.

"Oh, I see…" The Third Miss South Palace replied and began to circulate her energy to absorb the effects of the Dragon Blood Pill.

“Foodie…” Xianyao pointed at Eatie as he entered a state of teaching him words again.

“Eat… eat…”

The next day, the Third Young Master came to find Xianyao. He had important business and it was quite significant; he brought medicinal herbs needed for alchemy that Xianyao required.

"Bingbing, where's Xianyao" When the Third Young Master entered the Xianyao Estate, the first person he saw was Bingbing, who was eating in the main hall at this moment, along with Suzaku Thunder and the Third Miss South Palace.

Since his daughter was present, it made sense to ask her. He couldn’t just go asking others.

Bingbing's sisters had already gone off to work. They were busy individuals who didn't have time for leisure like some people.

"He’s daydreaming in the courtyard, saying he’s thinking things through. I think he’s just daydreaming," Bingbing replied while still eating.

"Third Young Master must be here to deliver herbs. My husband has already instructed me; I’ll take charge of receiving them." The Third Miss South Palace stood up and spoke as if she were Xianyao's fiancée.

No, this wasn't a fiancée speaking. She directly referred to him as her husband. It was like saying that she was already Xianyao’s wife.

Of course, some fiancées might refer to their partners in such a way based on the intimacy of their relationship. Clearly, there wasn’t any significant intimacy between the Third Miss South Palace and Xianyao; her address might have been official rather than personal.

Mm-hmm, it must be so. If Xianyao heard this, he would think that she was just using an official title and wouldn't attribute special meaning to it.

“Actually, I’d like to talk with Xianyao directly. It’s important for me to explain the matter.” The Third Young Master said. Alchemy was a significant affair, and he also wanted to ask about whether anything else needed preparation. Although Xianyao had already written out a list in the Imperial Study Room and clarified both parties' demands, there wasn’t much left to discuss.

The Third Young Master’s visit was as insurance but also because he wanted to chat with Xianyao. Even if Xianyao wasn't his son, they were still relatives; it wouldn’t be too distant.

"I'll take you in," the Third Miss South Palace said and did not call a servant for guidance. The servants at the Xianyao Estate were few, some being female soldiers.

Although this was the Xianyao Estate, it was basically just the four of them living here. They naturally chose only women to serve them, and they weren't around much, so their servants mainly kept an eye on the house.

When they returned, they would bring some personal guards who were already trained specifically for their service. These guards had considerable strength and even knew some formation techniques to combine their strengths. Of course, all of them were women.

With so few servants around, it was natural that she should take care of things herself. Furthermore, as a guest's companion, she also needed to check on Xianyao’s condition now.

She was the weakest among the four in terms of strength, and her Dragon Blood Pill had been absorbed quickly, with her realm having already advanced. However, Guxing trio were different; they were all breaking through the late Saint Realm.

The Eldest Miss and Second Miss were still at the mid-Saint Realm and would take a while to reach saturation in this stage. In contrast, Guxing had almost reached saturation in the late Saint Realm. With the help of Dragon Blood Pills, she was certain to advance; now she was already entering the final phase of her breakthrough.

As for the Eldest Miss and South Palace Susanxu (the Second Miss), they didn't know if they could break through yet. It seemed there was still some distance, but it was getting closer.

If not for these Dragon Blood Pills, they might need a year or two more time. Now she estimated that only one to two months would be needed. With Xianyao's guidance, there should be no problem.

Just as the Third Young Master stepped into the courtyard where Xianyao was located, he sensed an intense aura bursting out. He felt somewhat unsteady on his feet; this was clearly someone advancing in realm, and the level after advancement would surpass him by quite a bit.

If it didn’t surpass him considerably, why would he feel so unsteady

Is it her who is stronger than me...

"Xiaoyao, I've broken through."

Duke Solitary opened his eyes and looked at Xiaoyao with a smile. She eagerly awaited Xiaoyao’s praise.

"Mmm, that's great. It's not for nothing that you’re my boss. Keep up the effort, and you’ll enter the God Realm in no time. Then I'll be under your protection," said Xiaoyao with a smile.

“Yes yes, I will protect you,” Duke Solitary laughed happily. She enjoyed being praised but she liked even more that Xiaoyao needed her.

"Oh well, forget it, I can't break through anyway." The Miss jumped up in this moment and gave up. After all, the gap was quite big, so there was no need for her to force herself.

"It's obvious. You don’t have to say anything; we understand," said Southern Palace Xuxin’s voice rang out as she teased the Miss who seemed to be done.

“Hmph, you’re still the same. Fifty steps laughing at a hundred steps, no, you’re even worse than me,” said the Miss disdainfully.

"I don’t want to bother with you. I’m busy today and can't spar with you; I want to cozy up with my little servant," Southern Palace Xuxin came over to Xiaoyao’s side and hugged his arm, acting like a loverbird.

“Cozy up your ass, it’s just for show.” The Miss dragged Xiaoyao by the shoulder. "Xiaoyao, go drinking with me later."

"No time. I still have to make pills and can’t leave the alchemy room. There isn't much time left; I will be here for at most a month," said Xiaoyao shaking his head.

“Yes, yes, it’s important business, so let me take her out drinking,” Third Master interrupted. He couldn’t allow Xiaoyao to go drinking with the Miss or Lu Yunqing would probably die of depression.

When it came to this drinking, he only had these sorts of hobbies and often ran into the Miss when doing them.

"Drinking with you is pointless," said the Miss directly.

"Aren't you weird for going out drinking with Xiaoyao" Third Master asked looking at the Miss.

“Weird about what” The Miss was confused.

“Think about it; you’re Xiaoyao’s fiancée. If he doesn’t drink, but you make him go drinking, aren't you leading your fiancé astray” Third Master said with a smile.

"Of course not. He has been to brothels before and drinking wine isn't a big deal," the Miss shook her head as she replied.

“This is indeed an issue!”

Different from the Miss, Southern Palace’s sisters felt this was problematic and couldn’t allow Xiaoyao to be led astray by her. After all, they were fiancées to him, even if it was just in name.

“What problem I tell you guys, whoever stops me from drinking with Xiaoyao will regret it,” the Miss immediately shouted. She wouldn’t let this seed take root and would eliminate it; otherwise she wouldn't have a chance to drink with Xiaoyao in the future.

"Drinking isn’t really an issue," Black Snow said at this moment, making the Miss's impression of her increase instantly because Black Snow had spent time in brothels before. Back then, she was a famous singer.

“Hmm, that’s no big deal, don’t be so serious. Third Master, what do you need” Xiaoyao waved his hand to end this topic and began talking with the third master.

"Nothing much. I just wanted to know if there's anything else you needed," said Third Master with a smile.

“I’ve told you everything I need; are you unsure of something” Xiaoyao asked, thinking that Third Master would ask him some detailed questions.

"No, I just wanted to make sure," Third Master continued to say with a smile.

"If anything happens, I will contact you. Have the items been sent over Then I’ll start right away." Xiaoyao was about to begin working; he didn’t like wasting time.

He still had some things to do and could handle them while making pills. He just couldn't leave the alchemy room, not that he needed to make pills all the time—there were plenty of free moments in between.

During this time, he could think about matters or guide Solitary’s training or even drink with the Miss.

"You’re going to start already…"

The Miss said somewhat disappointedly and glared at Third Master fiercely as if blaming him for coming too early.

Third Master felt so wronged. You can make Xiaoyao wait; it's not a problem, there’s still plenty of time left. He doesn’t have the time but you could blame him.
