Chapter 547: Path to Ascension

Lin Xuan Qi knew what he had to do for the night but he kept quiet about it and enjoyed his lunch.

After all, having intimate moments with his wife and concubines was important to maintain his relationship with them.

When he was done with his meal, he glanced at them and asked, "As promised, we shall have a spring outing soon, so maybe you can suggest where we should go."

He would want to go to the seaside in Bai Sha village to fish if he had his way, but he was willing to indulge them with their wishes.

"Where should we go? I heard the flowers at Liu Shan Lin are nice." Yue Xin was excited by it and she suggested somewhere renowned for its spring flower bloom.

Liu Shi Shi nodded her head to it.

It would be the gentle spring breeze, the sight and fragrance of the flowers, and a gathering with loved ones. A perfect scenario for Lin Xuan Qi to come up with a new poem for her.

What more could she ask for?

Xue Cong and Yue Jie also agreed and they nodded their heads too.

Even though Xue Cong had never grown up with such luxury to have a spring outing for enjoying the sights, she was happy to be able to spend the time with everyone.

As for Yue Jie, it was a matter of picking back up the life she once had.

"Great, it is settled then." Lin Xuan Qi gave them a smile and he glanced at Xiu.

"Help Mistress Xue Cong to get the logistics and items ready for the spring outing.

"Ask for the necessary budget from Mistress Yue Jie."

Xiu nodded her head and said with a smile, "Yes, Master Lin."

As long as Master Lin and Mistress Xue Cong would be able to enjoy their time together, she would be happy for it.

Lin Xuan Qi then left the dining hall and headed for the lab to continue his cultivation.

He had to ascend as soon as possible.

Even if he didn’t know what the Qing Feng Sect was up to, getting stronger was the only best thing he could do.

He was at Foundation Establishment Level Mid Stage and he was near to breaking through to the next stage soon.

One after another, he used up the Five-Element Stones he had.

Sitting in the lotus position, he maintained his breathing throughout and directed his Five-Element Qi to circle through his five organs.

Lin Xuan Qi could feel that he was on the threshold of it when he opened his eyes to see that it was already dinner time.

Knock.

The door knocked but it wasn’t Xiu coming to inform him for dinner.

Lee He Song’s voice sounded from behind the doors.

Lin Xuan Qi stood up and opened the doors.

"Master Lee, didn’t expect you to come back at the same time that I did." He said and saw Lee He Song standing outside the doors with some documents in his hands.

Lee He Song chuckled and passed the documents to him, "These are the title deeds for the new retail shops in Bian Jing."

When Lin Xuan Qi got hold of the documents, a familiar sound erupted in his mind and information panels with words appeared in it.

[Congratulations to host for procuring new properties.]

[Host is unbeatable within its compound.]

[Bonus of 100 Five-Element Stones delivered.]

[Keep up the good work!]

[Congratulations to host for recruiting twenty retail staff to the retail stores.]

[Additional 200KG of rice will be delivered to the mansion daily.]

[Keep up the good work and recruit more personnel.]

He had around three thousand over Five-Element Stones with the property purchases and also four hundred people under the Lin Clan to take care of.

Things were progressing on the right track but he wanted it to go even faster.

His next priority other than ascending to the next cultivation level was to get capable men and women to help manage all his businesses.

But first, he had a message for Lee He Song from Chu Xu.

When he glanced at Lee He Song, he couldn’t bring the two of them together in his mind.

Master Lee must have some tricks up his sleeves to have let Chu Xu fall for him so badly.

He started with some customary queries, "How are things over at Bian Jing? Are the businesses doing well?"

Lee He Song, not knowing what he was thinking, gave him a smile and replied, "Things are fine, Ru Hua, the retail store keeper, is a very capable woman."

Lin Xuan Qi nodded his head and said, "Speaking about women, Mistress Chu Xu has a message for you..."

The smile froze momentarily on Lee He Song’s face when he heard that Chu Xu had a message for him.

After all these years, he wasn’t sure if the message was a scolding or something else.

Thankfully, it was the latter when he heard Lin Xuan Qi repeating her words.

"She asked you why you didn’t visit her for such a long time."

Cough.

Lee He Song let out a fake cough and tried to compose himself.

He was in two minds on whether he should or shouldn’t do it.

Lin Xuan Qi saw his expression and added, "Mistress Chu Xu seemed to have missed you a lot after all these years."

"Stop..." Lee He Song blushed and he felt embarrassed by it.

Lin Xuan Qi quickly changed the topic and asked, "Where is Zhi Yong by the way? I haven’t seen him all day."

Lee He Song felt relieved to be able to talk about something else and he replied, "Zhi Yong must be at the factories checking on the production and security for you.

"That was what he did after you left for Gui Feng City."

Lin Xuan Qi nodded his head and he decided to wait for Zhi Yong to come back and hand over the gifts he had bought for them together.

And in the meantime, he continued with his cultivation together with Lee He Song inside the lab until it was time for dinner.
