Chapter 118 Little Qiong Peak’s Special Production of the Ambition Pill

“Aren’t Dao companions just people who cultivate together? When did Dao companions become the same as a married couple? Can’t I just focus on the Great Dao?

Can’t I have some peace and cultivate quietly? Can’t I!?!”

In the Pill Chamber of Little Qiong Peak, Jiu Wu’s face was slightly red. He sat on the table and smacked it continuously, letting out a low growl.

At the Pill Chamber’s banquet, Jiu Wu sat at the main seat. Beside him was Jiu Wu’s sixth junior sister, Jiu Lu’er, and his seventh junior brother, Jiu Qi.

Jiu Jiu was naturally there as well. However, she was currently sitting beside Li Changshou and Ling’e. She looked more like the host who was entertaining guests.

Jiu Lu’er looked like a graceful and intelligent fairy who exuded a delicate and gentle aura.

She seemed to love green. She was dressed in an elegant light-green dress and a straw-green jacket. Her red hairpin was carved from clear jade.

Jiu Lu’er was of average height, and her figure was slender and pet.i.te. It was somewhat similar to Jiu Jiu, but a little inferior.

She had a round little face, almond-shaped eyes, thin lips, and a fair neck…

At first glance, she gave off a very gentle vibe. She spoke in a gentle voice and her speech was well-paced. It was as if one would feel that they were being rude and offensive by speaking loudly to her.

As for Jiu Qi who was beside him… he was also worried about Fifth Senior Brother and the two of them followed him to the banquet.

Jiu Wu drank two cups of wine in sorrow. Jiu Lu’er asked softly, “Fifth Senior Brother, what happened between you and Fourth Senior Sister?”

Therefore, Jiu Wu broke his silence and started complaining.

Jiu Lu’er and Jiu Qi frowned and remained silent.

Li Changshou, who was at the side, kept comforting him. He pinched Jiu Wu’s nose and made him gulp down some chicken soup.

Ling’e and Jiu Jiu, who were the only ones who did not know what was going on, looked at each other…

Ling’e only knew a little bit about romance.

Jiu Jiu, on the other hand, had been influenced since she was young. She had cultivated for more than a thousand years and knew about those things. However, because she did not have much experience, she did not know what happened to Fifth Senior Brother. He was suddenly full of complaints…

At the start of the banquet, she heard Jiu Wu whining constantly.

Fortunately, Li Changshou suggested that Jiu Wu go out for a walk and relax. He asked the four of them to eat, drink, and play. Hence, the delectable dishes did not go to waste.

As Li Changshou strolled around the spiritual beast enclosure, he thought about how he could salvage the situation.

Seeing that Jiu Wu had calmed down, Li Changshou asked softly, “Uncle-Master Jiu Wu, there is no one else here. I treat you as my uncle-master and a good friend. What is going on? Haven’t you and Aunt-Master Jiu s.h.i.+ always had a loving relations.h.i.+p?”

“Ah!”

Jiu Wu sighed and turned his head.

Li Changshou asked again, “Uncle-Master Jiu Wu, do you have something… that you find difficult to say?”

“Ah!”

Jiu Wu sighed again and hesitated to speak. Li Changshou thought about it and said in a low voice, “Uncle-Master, there’s something I don’t know if I should say.”

Jiu Wu said, “Tell me. I’m listening.”

“Uncle-Master, sometimes, you’re not very confident in this aspect,” Li Changshou continued, “Actually, you’re already very good. If you still end up like this I’ll definitely keep a distance from matters regarding Dao companions in the future.”

Jiu Wu paused and laughed bitterly before patting his thigh.

“Alright, I’ll tell you the truth! I don’t know why, but… I just don’t want to get close to women lately…”

Li Changshou immediately took half a step back. Jiu Wu was instantly angered to the point of bursting into laughter. He cursed, “Don’t think about it! I’m not impotent!”

“Yes, yes.” Li Changshou was naturally just cracking a joke. He also knew what Jiu Wu’s problem was.

After muttering to himself for a while, Li Changshou said, “Uncle-Master, I heard Master mention the details of the process of you guys destroying the demons. Have you seen the… ‘Aged Beauties’ painting that I painted?”

“Yes, I have.” Jiu Wu frowned and continued, “That painting of yours is just a painting. How could it affect me? I’m a Perfected Immortal after all. My mental state is quite stable.”

“It’s definitely not just the map alone. However, at that time, it seemed that you had been struck by the demonic vixen’s Enchantment Spell, Uncle-Master. At that time, you were completely mentally unprepared…”

Li Changshou reminded him a little. Jiu Wu thought for a while and suddenly realized something.

“Is that so?”

“That should be the case.” Li Changshou sighed. “This matter stemmed from the painting I created. Although you’re suffering from the after-effects of the Enchantment Spell, I’m responsible for it. Uncle-Master, if you trust me, let me try and see if I can salvage the situation.” Jiu Wu’s short and thick eyebrows furrowed. “How are you going to salvage this?”

Li Changshou smiled calmly and confidently.

After a while, Jiu Wu was full of energy. His eyes were filled with hope as he returned to the banquet at the Pill Chamber.

He seemed to have completely become a different person. He kept calling out to the few of them and asked them to drink and eat. The atmosphere quickly became lively…

His junior brother and two junior sisters were naturally confused.

Li Changshou did not return with Jiu Wu. Instead, he rubbed his forehead and returned to the Pill Chamber two hours later. He solemnly stuffed a treasure pouch into Jiu Wu’s hand.

Jiu Wu asked softly, “How many?”

“Thirty-six volumes, the number of Heavenly Constellations.”

“Very good! Thank you, Disciple-Nephew!” Jiu Wu grinned.

Seeing that Jiu Jiu was staring at the treasure pouch in her hand with a burning gaze, the short Daoist laughed and chided, “Don’t stare at it for too long. This is not something a child like you can see!”

Then, Jiu Wu put away the treasure pouch solemnly and gave Li Changshou a thumbs-up. “Disciple-Nephew, you’re still the most reliable!” “It’s just a small matter. Uncle-Master, don’t forget our previous agreement.” “Of course! Come! I’ll toast to you! If I succeed this time, I’ll reward you greatly!”

“Uncle-Master, you don’t have to be so polite. Just remember not to tell others.”

The two of them spoke one after another, which was enough to whet the appet.i.te of the people around them. However, no matter how the four of them tried to pry and find out, the two of them smiled and did not say anything.

Very quickly, Jiu Wu abandoned his junior brother and junior sister and left on a cloud in a hurry.

Jiu Lu’er and Jiu Qi also bade farewell and left.

After they left, Jiu Jiu stared at Li Changshou and kept bombarding him with questions. Li Changshou had no choice but to explain to his Little Aunt-Master.

“Uncle-Master Jiu Wu is experiencing some issues with his body, and his Yang is slightly damaged. Hence, I gave him some pills and created some paintings that would be pleasing to the eye.”

“That’s it?”

“Yes, that’s it.”

However, just as Li Changshou finished speaking, Ling’e, who was cleaning the dishes, suddenly recalled something. Her hand trembled and she almost shattered the jade plates.

Li Changshou turned to look at her, and Ling’e immediately lowered her head to suppress her laughter. She became more agile. She recalled the rapid reproduction of the Jade Frogs…

In the residence of the Nine Jiu Immortals on the Heaven-Breaking Peak, Jiu Wu hurriedly flew back and plunged into his pavilion. He took out two treasure pouches. He took out a few bottles of pills from a treasure pouch, as well as a set of exquisite portraits. Li Changshou’s advice surfaced in the short Daoist’s mind.
