...
Soon, after Chen Chunping and Zhu Zhipeng were taken away, Zhou De also left the place.
Xia Fei and the others called another car and returned to the villa. After unloading and arranging everything from the car, they promptly went back into the villa where they lived.
As soon as they entered, they noticed a difference.
The furnishings inside had not changed at all. They could not quite put the difference into words, but they were certain that the environment of the villa was definitely not the same.
Cultivating in such an environment would allow their cultivation bases to improve much faster than before!
Everyone knew without thinking that this was definitely Qin Ning's doing.
They hurriedly and eagerly began to cultivate.
"Hehe, that guy Richard went back to Country Y to handle some matters these past few days. I can only say he missed out on a good time. By the time he comes back, our cultivation will definitely have left him far behind," Cai Cheng said. Without even taking off his clothes, he jumped straight into the hot spring.
...
Meanwhile, in the other villa opposite them where Qin Ning and the others lived.
In the back garden.
The hot spring pool here was larger, and the overall layout was much better than the one at Wang Er's place.
After returning, Qin Fei and the others went directly into the hot spring pool to cultivate.
Recently, there was something that had been confusing Qin Fei greatly.
She found that she was clearly cultivating just like before, not slacking off at all.
However, the cultivation bases of Cheng Weiyang, Su Xingwan, and the others had gradually surpassed hers.
This naturally aroused her desire to cultivate, and she planned to stay in the hot spring pool tonight and not leave.
Gu Siyu and the others seemed to see her intentions. They could not help but exchange a glance without speaking. After soaking for a while, they tacitly got up and left one after another.
"Are you guys not cultivating anymore?" Qin Fei asked curiously.
Yang Xin smiled and said, "Hehe, we are going back to our rooms to cultivate."
After saying that, she did not forget to glance at Jiang Yanran, who was sitting next to Qin Fei in the hot spring pool. "Yanran, do you want to come back to the room with us?"
"No, I also want to cultivate here for the night to see the effects."
Jiang Yanran was still in college before, so she did not have much time to cultivate. Moreover, she had only recently started learning to cultivate with her grandfather, Jiang Yunshan.
Now that she had come to the villa, with the hot spring pool and the cultivation treasure land that Qin Ning had modified, she naturally wanted to test out exactly how good her cultivation talent was.
"Oh, suit yourself then."
Yang Xin replied, and then quickly followed Su Xingwan and the others back to the living room.
Cheng Weiyang handed her a pair of silk stockings.
"Aren't these the ones Yanran just bought?" Yang Xin was taken aback.
"Hehe, she doesn't need them right now anyway. She can just buy more later. We'll wear them first. You wear the black ones, Xingwan wears the white ones, and Sister Siyu and I will wear the ones with letters," Cheng Weiyang laughed.
In the room, while Qin Fei and the others were out, Qin Ning had already refined all the materials and successfully modified the cultivation environments of the two villas.
Over at Wang Er's side, because spirit stones were used for the modification, the effects would be much worse.
But that was not the case here. Qin Ning used the best materials for everything and had already transformed this place into a true cultivation treasure land.
"I'm a bit tired tonight..."
He sat cross-legged on the bed cultivating. Although his eyes were closed, he naturally sensed Su Xingwan and the others tiptoeing closer outside the door.
The four of them walked in, all wearing silk stockings. Gu Siyu said, "Hehe, Qin Ning, take a look now. Are you still tired?"
...
After a night passed, Qin Fei and Jiang Yanran, who had been cultivating in the hot spring pool, both felt that they had made great progress and thought about going to show off to Su Xingwan and the others.
But when they sat around together to eat breakfast, they found that Cheng Weiyang and the other three seemed to have made even greater progress?
What was going on?
Qin Fei frowned tightly and looked at them with a serious face, as if she was thinking carefully about something.
Su Xingwan and the others felt a little guilty under her gaze. Had Little Fei finally realized something?
Sure enough, the expression on Qin Fei's face gradually changed from confusion to surprise, as if she had come to a sudden realization. "I know! It must be like this!"
Yang Xin spoke up, "Ahem... Little Fei... actually, we weren't deliberately hiding it..."
Before she could finish, Qin Fei said, "Brother often says that my talent is better than yours, but your current cultivation bases have all surpassed mine. This must be the late bloomer he mentioned, right?"
"Uh..."
Hearing this, everyone was stunned for a moment, and then they laughed. "Yes, yes, yes, late bloomers..."
Seeing that she seemed a bit disappointed, Cheng Weiyang could not help but comfort her, "Little Fei, don't overthink it. Qin Ning always says your talent is very good, so he definitely wouldn't lie to you. Maybe one day your cultivation will suddenly surpass ours again."
...
In the afternoon.
At the headquarters of Feiya Group.
A bored Qin Ning followed Qin Fei and the others here as well.
Recently, the company was preparing a new show for Yang Xin, a female-led television drama without a male lead.
This was requested by Yang Xin. She had privately told Cheng Weiyang and the others that unless Qin Ning was the male lead, she would never act opposite other male actors in her life.
Everyone naturally understood what she meant, which was why they specially prepared such a show for her.
Actually, the current Yang Xin, even if she stopped acting, could completely have an endless amount of money to spend.
But this was not a matter of whether she made money or not; it was mainly because this was her hobby.
Today, there was a live broadcast in the company, which was a kind of promotion before the shooting started. Yang Xin would make an appearance to greet the audience and say some pleasantries.
In the live broadcast hall, she was seen wearing a traditional costume, holding a long sword, looking ethereal and fairy-like.
With Yang Xin's appearance, the number of viewers in the originally unpopular live broadcast room suddenly began to rise rapidly.
"Wow! Who is this actress? I didn't expect her to be so beautiful!"
"I haven't seen her before, she must be a newcomer, right?"
"I heard she's the protagonist of a new drama? And this drama has a huge investment?"
"Sigh, how big can the investment be? I just checked, and the director and investors are not considered top-tier domestically; they are even quite mediocre. It's a pity for such a beautiful actress. If she could cooperate with those big companies, she could definitely become a domestic A-lister within a year!"
On the bullet screen of the live broadcast room, many people started discussing.
And right at this moment, the page suddenly prompted that a super user had entered the live broadcast room, and it prompted several in a row.
Immediately after, a huge pile of virtual rockets covered the entire live broadcast room.
"My God..."
"Where did this super-rich guy come from! To directly tip so much... let me count... tens, hundreds, thousands, tens of thousands..."
"Calculating it, it must be at least twenty million, right?"
"More than that! This is one person tipping twenty million, and there are several others tipping after!"
"These tipping special effects have blown up my screen. This is a new phone I just bought last week!"
