【Crimson Silk of Heaven (For Chamber Use Only, For Dao Companions Only)】
【Description: Three feet of scarlet silk conceals delights untold, as clouds and rain dance freely across nine heavens. Now a flowing veil to shroud the form, now a girdle to accentuate the slender waist.】

【Frostfire Candle (For Chamber Use Only, For Dao Companions Only)】
【Description: A flicker of icy flame melts jade-like skin, half an inch of frostfire burns with hidden fragrance. In moments of passion, one descends the Moon Palace, crimson embers scattering upon the jade bed.】
Reading the descriptions of these items, Lin Yu felt his heart stir.
Spirit stones, after all, should be spent on meaningful things.
After accumulating these tools over several days, the coming nights promised to be fulfilling.
Whether he’d regret the purchase remained to be seen.
But not buying them and missing out later? That would surely be unbearable.
Just minutes after completing the purchase—
Ding!
The familiar chime rang out right on schedule.
["Today is another day full of hope!"]
["Host, continue exploring the Path of Joyful Union. Strive to become the pillar of our sect!"]
Hearing this daily reminder always filled Lin Yu with motivation.
Having stayed awake since three in the morning, the stimulation left him even more alert.
He opened the system interface and skimmed through it.
A few notable changes stood out compared to the previous day.
First:
【Dao Companions (Soul Cultivation/Body Cultivation): 4/1】
The sole body cultivation partner was, of course, Ying'er, with whom he had sworn an oath on the very first day.
The four soul cultivation partners were Chi Qingshui, Ye Mengfu, Chen Qimeng, and Shen Buyao.
Such an impressive record was a sight to lift anyone’s spirits.
But a mere four? Far from the limit.
His goal was at least… double digits!
The second notable change was the addition of two new urgent missions, aside from the previous ones:
【Emergency Rescue (New Urgent Mission): One-tenth of an incense stick ago, the Elder of the Medicine Hall suffered external injuries during a worldly trial when her vehicle went out of control. She is currently receiving treatment at a mortal hospital. Immediate assistance is required!】
【Starving Spirit Beast (New Urgent Mission): Two wild spirit beasts, rescued and brought to the Spirit Beast Garden due to severe injuries—one has already perished. The other, grieving deeply for its companion, refuses to eat and teeters on the brink of death, leaving the Spirit Beast Garden Elder at a loss!】
Lin Yu: "!!!"
Seeing these new urgent missions, Lin Yu had no mind to read further.
The Medicine Hall Elder… a vehicle accident…
What was that nurse sister thinking, riding that damned motorcycle so early in the morning?!
No time to waste—he had to see how badly she was hurt.
At least the mission mentioned external injuries, so it likely wasn’t life-threatening.
If she’d been speeding on that death trap, there’d be no such thing as a "minor" accident.
Buzz… Buzz…
Just as he was pondering, his phone vibrated insistently.
It was a call from Maomao!
Not wanting to disturb the two women still asleep, Lin Yu quietly slipped into the study, locking the door behind him.
He answered with practiced calm, feigning ignorance:
"Maomao? You’re up so early?"
"Did no one come to take care of you today?"
A trembling, tearful voice answered:
"Yu… I’m sorry for calling so early."
"Wei… she was in a car accident. She’s at Central Hospital now…"
"Could you… come with me to see her?"
Lin Yu immediately played along with shock:
"What?!!"
"Don't be in a hurry. Wait for me in the room. I'll come right away."
Maomao's call actually saved Lin Yu a lot of trouble.
Otherwise,
he would have to wrack his brains to come up with a reason to call the nurse sister so that he could go to the rescue justifiably.
Maomao was able to call him.
Ask him for help.
It meant that the guilty nurse sister must not have dared to tell the curator sister, Xia Xiashan, about the car accident.
With the curator's fiery temper, she might permanently confiscate her motorcycle.
Of course,
the fact that she could hide it from her own sister also indirectly indicated that the injury was not too serious.
As for how Xia Yiwei was doing now, he could only find out when he got to the hospital.
...
On the first floor of the apartment,
Chen Qimeng was preparing breakfast in the kitchen.
Normally,
she was very focused when making breakfast and would always keep an eye on the heat.
Today, she was also staring at something.
It was just that she was standing at the kitchen door, carefully listening to the sounds upstairs.
This state
had lasted for nearly an hour.
Chen Qimeng thought to herself secretly:
Strange. Xiao Yu has been getting up early in the past two days.
Why is he late today? Did he not sleep well last night?
Chen Qimeng slept extremely soundly last night and... had a really nice dream.
After getting up with a strange feeling today, she went straight to the kitchen to cook breakfast.
She didn't really plan to let Xiao Yu do housework and cook often in the future.
The things that were supposed to be done by her still couldn't be neglected.
When she heard the rapid and powerful footsteps coming from upstairs,
Chen Qimeng quickly returned to the stove and pretended to be indulged in cooking.
Immediately afterwards,
another series of rapid footsteps sounded in the corridor on the first floor.
"Yu, sorry... I disturbed your sleep."
As soon as Maomao ran out and saw Lin Yu at the stairway, she first apologized verbally.
Lin Yu glanced at the loose "big T-shirt" on Maomao. It almost covered her knees.
Wasn't this a set of pajamas?
However, the situation was urgent at the moment, and there was no time to worry about it.
"I've been awake for a long time. It didn't disturb me."
"Let's take a taxi there quickly and see how Sister Wei is doing."
Lin Yu pointed outside and said.
When he was about to step out, Lin Yu saw Chen Qimeng busy in the kitchen.
He put his hand on Maomao's shoulder and said,
"Wait for me a minute."
...
After a while,
a worried and surprised voice came from the kitchen:
"The Chinese Medicine Hospital? Is it serious? How is the situation now?"
"I'll turn off the fire and go with you to have a look!"
The first thing that came to Chen Qimeng's mind when she heard about it was to go with them.
Lin Yu quickly comforted her and said,
"I've just confirmed that it's not serious. It's just some minor injuries."
"Qimeng, you'd better stay at home and cook.
"If we bring Sister Wei back later, she'll definitely want to eat something too.
"Please stay at home and take charge of the rear. I'll inform you of any situation immediately."
Chen Qimeng suddenly thought that what Xiao Yu said made sense.
Going with too many people wouldn't solve the problem. It was better to stay at home and prepare some food.
"Okay, Xiao Yu. I'll listen to you. Send me a message to let me know after you find out the situation."
Lin Yu nodded and continued,
"Qimeng, I have a courier. Could you please pick it up for me later?"
