Chapter 618: Heroic Women
"What do you usually need to buy?" Jiang Yue continued to question.
"Mostly herbs, and refining materials." Ying Yi said.
Hearing this, Yu Nianzhen and Jiang Yue looked at each other.
Although they had planted a lot of herbs in the archipelago, the selection was not complete.
After all, they were not alchemists.
Without a working knowledge of alchemy recipes, they only planted some common herbs.
As for refining materials, the two completely ignored them and didn’t transplant a single mineral ore into the archipelago.
’We still have to look for mineral ore veins.’ Yu Nianzhen thought.
"Master, we have reclaimed some islands and planted more herbs. After a few years, the archipelago won’t need to import herbs from the mainland."
"Good job." Yu Nianzhen praised and Ying Yi smiled in happiness.
"How are the martial artists doing?" The swordsman asked.
Hearing this, Ying Yi sighed before he answered.
"The martial artists have more complete inheritances. They can refine more types of pills, weapons, and other things."
"Don’t worry. We will soon open the library and other places. After that, our Zhenyue won’t fall behind." Jiang Yue promised.
"That’s best." Ying Yi frowned.
"Did something happen?" Yu Nianzhen asked.
"Not yet but if things continue as they are, we won’t be able to keep up with the martial artists."
"How is the cultivation of the Ying guards?" Yu Nianzhen asked.
"All of us have advanced to the qi transformation realm." Ying San proudly revealed.
"Ying Ba has the lowest cultivation. However, she is already at the third level of the qi transformation realm. She will be at the fourth level when she comes out of retreat."
"What about your masteries?"
"Ying San and I are swordsmen, Ying Wu is a spearmaster, and Ying Ju is a martial artist."
"As for the others, Ying Er is a level two spiritual planter, Ying Si is a level two formation master, Ying Liu is a level three talisman master, Ying Qi is a level two weapon refiner, Ying Ba is a level three alchemist, and Ying Shi is a level three puppet master."
"Not bad." Jiang Yue said, and Yu Nianzhen nodded.
"Later, you can all go to the library to find skills and inheritances."
"Thank you, master." The Ying guards immediately bowed.
"We collected many weapons in the past several thousand years. You can also choose some weapons in the weapons pavilion."
"Weapons pavilion?" Qin San asked.
"There is a library, weapons pavilion, pill pavilion, and herbs pavilion on several islands on the twentieth ring."
"There is an especially foggy place on the twentieth ring. Are they there?" Ying Si asked, and Jiang Yue nodded.
"You need special permission tokens to enter those islands." Jiang Yue said.
At the same time, he removed ten jade tokens from his space ring.
"These tokens will give you access to the first floor."
"Thank you, Master Jiang." The Ying guards said.
"Work hard. Don’t disappoint us."
"We know."
After that, Yu Nianzhen and Jiang Yue left the island.
As they flew to the Jiang family’s island, Jiang Yue smiled.
"Are you happy about something?" Yu Nianzhen asked.
"After visiting the Ying guards, I think my idea will work."
"Are you still keeping it from me?"
"Wait a while." Jiang Yue chuckled.
Soon after, the two landed on an island.
Like the previous island, the Jiang family’s island differed from how it was ten years ago.
When the two arrived at the entrance of the main courtyard, Uncle Liu opened the door.
"Uncle Liu." Jiang Yue greeted.
"Young master, are you back?" Uncle Liu asked with a happy expression.
"Nianzen and I are back. Where is everyone?"
"The young miss is drawing talismans in her courtyard, and your third cousin has gone to the mainland. Your grandparents and parents are drinking tea in the yard."
"Is that so?" Jiang Yue nodded while looking at the old housekeeper.
"Uncle Liu is already at the sixth level of the origin forging realm." He said.
"My talent is a little worse." Uncle Liu sighed.
However, Jiang Yue didn’t think so.
When they arrived in the Cangxing world, Uncle Liu was already in his seventies.
At such an age, the old housekeeper cultivated to the sixth level in just ten years.
Given time and resources, the old man could become an immortal realm master.
"Uncle Liu is still young. Don’t worry too much."
"The young master is kind." Uncle Liu smiled and led the two to the yard.
As mentioned, Grandpa Jiang, Grandma Jiang, Mother Jiang, and Father Jiang were drinking tea in the yard.
When they saw the two, mother Jiang Yue immediately stood up and rushed towards Jiang Yue.
"Yue’er, where did you go?" She asked and subconsciously looked him over to ensure he was in one piece.
"I am fine." Jiang Yue chuckled
’I guess she is still not used to long separations.’ Jiang Yue thought with a tolerant smile.
"Aunt Jiang is very talented." Yu Nianzhen praised when he saw Mother Jiang was already at the ninth level of the origin forging realm.
Most importantly, her blood was surging, and her body exuded strength.
’Martial artist?’ Yu Nianzhen thought and looked around.
However, his lips twitched when he saw Grandmother Jiang.
’She is also a martial artist.’ He thought.
"Mother, grandmother, have you become martial artists?" Jiang Yue asked, looking at the two delicate women with incredulous eyes.
Hearing this, Grandpa Jiang and Father Jiang helplessly sighed.
"Don’t mention this matter." Grandpa Jiang said with a depressed expression.
"Father, what happened?" Jiang Yue was not to be deterred.
"Who knows what happened." Father Jiang started and soon continued.
"It’s not just your grandmother and mother, it’s also your grandmother and aunt from the Yu family."
When they heard this, Jiang Yue and Yu Nianzhen didn’t know what to say.
’Who knew the women in our families were so heroic.’ Jiang Yue thought.
However, he didn’t dare to say anything in front of his father and grandfather.
After that, the two chatted with the Jiang family, gave out several permission tokens, and then left for the Yu family’s island.
