After understanding the full sequence of events, Chu Ge tossed the matter to the back of his mind and instead took out the Northern Star Profound Crystal he had obtained from signing in at Shuiyue Peak and began cultivating with it.
Time flowed by, and in the blink of an eye, it was already deep into the night.
Chu Ge opened his eyes, a flash of delight passing through them.
This Northern Star Profound Crystal was even more effective than he had expected. The speed at which he opened his star apertures had increased by more than double compared to when he did not use the Northern Star Profound Crystal!
"It's a pity this thing can't be used long-term."
Looking at the noticeably darkened patch on the Northern Star Profound Crystal in his hand, Chu Ge spoke with a hint of regret.
He knew that this was because a portion of the starlight essence inside the crystal had been consumed.
At this rate, Chu Ge estimated that the Northern Star Profound Crystal he held would only be enough for about half a month before the internal starlight essence would be completely exhausted.
'I wonder if there is any Northern Star Profound Crystal in the Taihuang Holy Land's treasury.'
Chu Ge pondered this inwardly. The Northern Star Profound Crystal had also served as a reminder—given his status as the Holy Lord's personal disciple, his privileges were considerable.
After becoming Luo Huangjun's personal disciple, this cool and aloof master had not bestowed him with any treasures, only giving him two tokens.
One was a token to Luo Huangjun's private treasury, and the other was a token to the Taihuang Treasury.
The meaning was self-evident.
Whatever he needed, he could simply go and take it himself.
Of course, he could not go too far.
The Taihuang Holy Land did not belong to Luo Huangjun alone.
Some extremely precious items in the treasury could not be taken, and the use of resources could not be overly extravagant either.
Moreover, all withdrawals had to be officially registered—this procedure was mandatory, since these were resources belonging to the entire Taihuang.
As for Luo Huangjun's private treasury, Chu Ge, as her personal disciple, could take whatever he wanted from it.
No longer thinking about it, Chu Ge summoned the Diary panel and prepared to record today's entry.
[Went to Shuiyue Peak today. Martial Aunt Shui truly is a wonderful elder.]
[Not only is she breathtakingly beautiful, her generosity is also unmatched.]
[Moreover, Elder Shui possesses truly magnificent "waves." In this regard, even Master and Martial Aunt Dantai can't compare—only my silly senior sister can contend with her.]
[And there are also the two junior sisters, Lu Fuyao and Lu Tingni, who are very likable as well.]
"Martial Aunt Shui? She really is not inferior to mine at all."
Inside her cultivation chamber, Su Lingyuan came to her senses from meditation at once.
As Shui Qianrou's face and figure surfaced in her mind, she couldn't help but nod slightly and mutter softly.
This Elder Shui Qianrou was indeed one of the very few within the Taihuang Holy Land who could compete with her, and her looks were by no means inferior either.
On the other side—
Luo Huangjun furrowed her brows, a trace of displeasure on her face.
"Rebellious disciple! Do you like these two useless lumps that much?"
She subconsciously glanced at her own chest.
Comparing them in secret, the result was naturally a complete defeat.
Hers were not bad, but still within the normal range—something that could not compare to that abnormal scale.
Dantai Jinglian, who shared a similar line of thought, also withdrew her gaze from herself.
"Junior Sister Shui, huh? My nephew has quite the discerning eye."
She said this aloud, but her thoughts were on something else entirely.
Since Chu Ge had already expressed his fondness for Shui Qianrou, it was only a matter of time before the latter obtained a diary copy.
[Martial Aunt Shui gave me a large batch of pills, all of them of supreme and flawless quality—it's clear she invested a great deal of care and effort.]
[After that, she even took out years of treasured stock, all of them rare pills of no low grade.]
