In the cabin.

Shu Xiaoxiao respectfully stood before him.

“Young Master, what can I do for you?”

Jiang Yuan removed a jade box from his person, containing blood ginseng, then opened it and asked, “Do you know what this is?”

Shu Xiaoxiao gave it a serious look, nodded firmly and said, “Yes, this is blood ginseng! ‘

“Correct! You can identify this?” Jiang Yuan expressed with some surprise.

Hearing this praise, her eyes instantly curved into crescents, and then she said.

“Previously, I taught myself to read, so I was able to understand various books. After becoming the Young Master’s maid, I thought that you were destined to transcend the ordinary and become a person of the immortal realm. If I didn’t know anything, it would label me as foolish. What would I do if the Young Master no longer wanted me? So, I have been trying hard to read and learn during these days!!

Jiang Yuan nodded slightly, “Good! So, as a reward, this blood ginseng is for you. Soak in a piece daily during your bath, and also swallow a piece soaked in water every day. I expect that you should be able to start cultivating in no time!”

“Ah!” Shu Xiaoxiao suddenly widened her eyes at Jiang Yuan, her eyes full of shock.

Then she woke up as if she had just had an epiphany, and repeatedly shook her hands, “Young Master, this… this won’t do… it’s… it’s too precious!”

Jiang Yuan asserted without room for doubt, “Take it! You should have some capabilities and strength while being by my side!”

“But… but…” She looked troubled; she knew well the preciousness of this blood ginseng.

This seemingly ordinary blood ginseng could be sold for hundreds of times her worth.

Prior to this, her parents had sold her to Yunyan Pavilion for only a petty ten taels of silver.

But ten taels of silver had saved the life of her little brother!

Jiang Yuan said, “Enough of the ‘buts,’ I need you to quickly improve your strength!’

Upon hearing Jiang Yuan’s unequivocal words, Shu Xiaoxiao nodded and said, “Thank you for your kindness, Young Master! ”

At this moment, her eyes were filled with a deep fog of emotion!

Jiang Yuan also smiled knowingly.

With the help of this blood ginseng, she should be able to advance into the

cultivation stage more quickly.

If his deduction is correct, such a change in her destiny could alter her future.

Leading her onto the path of cultivation, this status panel should provide me with good feedback!

Just as it did with Gu MO before.

Jiang Yuan then opened Shu Xiaoxiao’s status panel once again.

[Name]: Shu Xiaoxiao

[Realm]: Unentered

[Innate Fate]: Gestation (Above Purple) Deep Favored (Blue) Pure Heart (Blue)

Outstanding Talent (Blue) Excellent Comprehension (Green) Body of Wood (Green)

After looking at her panel, Jiang Yuan was full of anticipation.

Once Shu Xiaoxiao starts body forging, then the benefits will start to pile up.

After all, there is the precedent set by Gu Mo.

Afterwards, Jiang Yuan waved his hand, “You may leave for now! Go back to your room and consume the blood ginseng to nourish your body, understand?”

Shu Xiaoxiao obediently nodded, “Yes, Young Master!”

Once she left the room and closed the door behind her,

Jiang Yuan sat down cross-legged.

His mind sank into his spiritual platform, using his divine soul to mobilize the qi and blood within his entire body, refining his body.

Against his presently powerful divine soul, as well as his strong foundation.

Once he enters into deep cultivation, Jiang Yuan can feel his physical body becoming stronger and stronger under the tempering of his qi and blood.

Hence, his strength becomes more and more surging.

This ability to clearly feel his life level changing bit by bit, and his strength continuously progressing, made Jiang Yuan increasingly obsessed.

In a blink of an eye, several days passed.

Knock, knock, knock!

There was knocking sound from outside the room.

“Come in!” Jiang Yuan said.

Shu Xiaoxiao came before Jiang Yuan, “Young Master, we have arrived at the dock of the commandery’s port!’

Jiang Yuan slowly opened his eyes.

He looked at Shu Xiaoxiao. Her face was ruddy, her skin white as snow. Compared to a few days ago, her beauty had grown even more radiant.

It looks like the blood ginseng was remarkably effective. No wonder such a thing sells so expensively outside.

Afterwards, Jiang Yuan got up and left the room with Shu Xiaoxiao closely following behind him.

She stepped onto the deck.

The sight of hundreds of boats competing for space, thousands of sails racing across, and the bustling scene at the ferry crossing filled her view.

This was a scene that the far-off Lin’an County could not match.

Shu Xiaoxiao gazed at the scene before her, her mouth slightly agape, exclaiming, “What a splendid view!”

Just then, Jiang Yuan’s brow furrowed slightly.

There was a tense crowd on the dock ahead, Old Ma was among them.

Jiang Yuan immediately disembarked and approached them, asking, “Uncle Ma, what’s going on?”

Old Ma respectfully said, “Young Master, you’re here. They have gone too far!”

Upon hearing these words, Jiang Yuan directed his gaze towards the guards of the small team ahead.

As his gaze fell upon them, the captain leading the group instantly felt a sinking feeling in his heart, an inexplicable pressure.

This was the invisible oppression caused by an outward emission of mental energy.

He immediately adjusted his posture, and started speaking in a somewhat respectful manner, “We are just following orders. Any ship docking at the pier has to pay a fee.”

Old Ma said, “Young Master, I’ve paid the fees, but he just tried to board our ship for an inspection, saying that because we are transporting goods, we need to pay an additional five percent tax on the cargo. I’ve never heard of such a rule!”

Jiang Yuan calmly said, “Is that so?”

At this moment, under the scrutiny of Jiang Yuan’s gaze, the team leader was full of nervousness.

He clenched the hilt of his dagger, yet he still felt uneasy.

Just then.

A sturdy man in the distance saw this scene, hastily walked over, “Changqing, what’s going on?”

As he spoke, his gaze fell on Jiang Yuan, his heart leaping instantly.

It’s him!

The image of the godly figure from a few days ago instantly surfaced in his mind.

With a single hand, he killed the fourteen Body Forging masters at Smoke Ripple Lake in an instant.

Then, he glanced at the small boat not far away, with a red flag fluttering on it.

There was a distinct “Jiang” character in the center.

Indeed, it’s him!

The sturdy man’s heart tightened involuntarily.

At this moment, seeing the sturdy man approaching, the team leader felt a glimmer of hope.

So, he began, “Brother Su, you know our rules at the pier too. I wanted to conduct a routine inspection on their ship, but they dared to…”

Before he could finish his sentence, he was met with a slap from Brother Su.

The sturdy man quickly showed a friendly smile, “This sir, he doesn’t know any better. Please don’t take it to heart. After you!’

Jiang Yuan gave him a somewhat surprised glance, then nodded lightly and left with Old Ma and the others.

After Jiang Yuan and the others returned to the cabin.

The guard captain looked aggrieved, “Brother Su, why did you hit me?”

“You’ve got a death wish, inspecting his ship?” The sturdy man retorted angrily.

“Brother Su, do you know him?”

“l am not worthy to know him, but I know who he is. Do you know who he is?”

“Who?” The captain of the guard team asked curiously, it was his first time seeing Brother Su behaving this way. “Jiang Yuan!”

He slowly stated these two words.

“Jiang Yuan?” The captain of the guard team was a bit puzzled, then his pupils contracted, “Is he the person that Brother Su spoke of yesterday?”

The sturdy man slowly nodded, “At least you’re not a complete idiot.”

Upon hearing this, his legs felt weak and he said to a brother nearby, “Help me to sit down for a bit!”

At this moment, a wave of fear washed over him. He had almost caused trouble with such a dangerous man.

If something had happened to him, wouldn’t his beautiful wife and obedient daughter at home have to be looked after by his brothers!

Thinking of this, he felt a deep sense of gratitude towards Brother Su.

The sturdy man glanced at the remaining few people, “Make sure you tell the others not to mess with them, understand?” The few men nodded repeatedly.

Only then did he feel relieved enough to leave.

As for trying to foster a relationship with Jiang Yuan, he knew he was not worthy. Being able to ensure this dangerous man left without causing any trouble, he was deeply satisfied..
