“I can’t even begin to imagine how strong it must be.”

Xiao Qing chattered nonstop about her cultivation progress along the way.

“You… said you have two cauldrons inside you?”

Qin Niu couldn’t help but exclaim in surprise.

“Yeah, two of them. They spin in opposite directions—one green, one red.”

Xiao Qing nodded earnestly to confirm.

“It looks like you’re most suited for cultivating the Medicine King Classic. After I broke through to the Acquired Realm, I only had one cauldron inside me, one less than you. With dual cauldrons, I believe as long as you continue with this technique, you’re certain to achieve greater success.”

Qin Niu envied Xiao Qing for being able to cultivate dual cauldrons.

But everyone has their own fate.

Xiao Qing was found with the Medicine King Classic, which suggests it might be her family’s ancestral technique.

Just like Qin Niu, who cultivates life-nurturing techniques like the Everlasting Spring Technique and also has a high talent for them.

“Once I grow stronger, I can protect my master better and do things for them. If I have the chance, I want to learn alchemy. Not only could I refine elixirs to enhance my own cultivation, but I could also make various elixirs for my master.”

A look of longing filled Xiao Qing’s youthful face.

“Want to learn alchemy, huh? No problem, I’ll go to the city in a few days and ask around for you.”

Qin Niu thought Master Zi Zhou’s alchemy skills were pretty good.

Having only dealt with that old man once, it would probably be difficult to get Master Zi Zhou to take Xiao Qing as a disciple.

But there was no rush for this matter.

They could also wait until Xiao Qing’s cultivation reached the Innate Realm before seeking discipleship with Master Zi Zhou.

The master and servant returned home in high spirits.

Both had made significant gains, and Qin Niu had pretty much scouted the deeper regions of this mountain area.

He didn’t dare to venture into the deepest parts where the demon birds called out.

The conditions just weren’t ripe yet.

But reconnoitering wouldn’t be difficult—he could easily send bees to take a look.

Whether bees or termites, he could breed them in large numbers for standard tasks, using them as cannon fodder if necessary.

As soon as he returned to the village, he sensed something was off in the atmosphere.

He sighed inwardly; it seemed the He Family was not willing to let things lie.

He quickened his pace towards home.

Sure enough, from a distance, he saw carriages parked outside his home, surrounded by many people.

The door of Wang Furen’s house next door had been smashed to pieces.

Wang Furen himself knelt on the ground, his face covered in blood.

Wang Wanyan’s figure was nowhere to be seen.

Qin Niu’s heart sank.

He hadn’t expected the He Family to seek trouble with Wang Furen’s house.

“Xiao Qing, don’t hold back later. If there’s someone we have the strength to kill, just kill them,” Qin Niu’s face was filled with surging killing intent.

He had gotten engaged to Wang Wanyan, and news of it had spread far and wide.

Now the He Family dared to touch his future wife; they were truly courting death.

Qin Niu had grown up without parents and held friends and relatives in the highest regard.

After Old Man Liu’s death, he had no other kin in this world.

Wang Wanyan’s arrival had been a light in his life.

He had already come to regard her as family in his heart.

Wang Furen had shown him much kindness, and later gave him his daughter’s hand in marriage, so Qin Niu also saw him as family.

Seeing him beaten and forced to kneel on the ground had touched Qin Niu’s last nerve.
