Chapter 101 Wei Lan's Parents Arrive
"The Heavenly Fire Essence mentioned here refers to a different kind of fire. I have my own essence fire, so it's a perfect match."
"The Blazing Sun Body Tempering Technique is indeed suitable for me."
Xiao Weiqing carefully studied the core essence of the Blazing Sun Body Tempering Method.
"Give it a try."
"The dawn light captures the flames, the will flows through the meridians, burning away impurities to create crystals... refining blood into rosy clouds, circulating endlessly throughout the body..." (Purely fictional)
Silently reciting the incantation, Xiao Weiqing began to cultivate the Blazing Sun Body Tempering Technique, guiding the essence of fire to temper his body according to the essential principles of the technique.
A short while later.
Xiao Weiqing's blood and qi surged, and his body was filled with heat waves, like steam or mist.
The essence fire is fatal to others, but for Xiao Weiqing, it is an integral part of his body.
Strands of pure fire swirled within Xiao Weiqing's body, constantly tempering his flesh, meridians, and even bones, until he felt full, at which point Xiao Weiqing stopped.
He got up and stretched, and felt that his physical body had undergone significant changes, even more noticeable than the changes he had experienced after his first body tempering.
"Go get tested."
The second floor of Ziwei Pavilion.
In front of the testing instrument.
Xiao Weiqing took a deep breath and threw a punch.
The instrument emitted a dull thud, and the number stopped at 33.
This quantitative figure represents the overall physical quality and can also be seen as an individual's body tempering progress. Xiao Weiqing's body tempering progress has reached one-third.
"It was 31 the day before yesterday. The Blazing Sun Body Tempering Technique is indeed powerful."
"Ding... Ding..."
The wristband has arrived, providing communication.
"It's Senior Ding, oh no, I forgot about that."
Xiao Weiqing connected the communication.
"Xiao Weiqing, you're not trying to stand me up, are you?"
"Ahem...ahem...senior, something's held me up. I'll be right there."
Xiao Weiqing rushed to the nursery.
It took a few minutes to satisfy Ding Yuexi's needs and feed her the Zhu Yanling Grass.
"I'm sorry, Senior Ding, I'll definitely be there on time tomorrow."
"Yes, you must remember. Don't forget that you also have a part of these Crimson Flame Spirit Grasses," Ding Yuexi instructed again.
Xiao Weiqing nodded repeatedly, "I guarantee it."
night.
South gate of Luojiang Academy.
Jiang Peng and Wei Lan were waiting on the platform of the air port.
Unlike Jiang Peng, Wei Lan seemed somewhat uneasy.
"Wei Lan, you don't need to be so guilty. Your aunt and uncle haven't seen you in a long time, they won't do anything to you."
Wei Lan seemed a little absent-minded. "Oh."
"If anyone should feel guilty, it's me. I made my uncle misunderstand last time. I don't know if he's still angry."
"what you think?"
Sudden.
A voice came from behind the two of them, seemingly carrying a hint of anger.
Jiang Peng froze, then looked up and said loudly, "I believe my uncle is magnanimous and would certainly not stoop to the level of a junior like me."
"Hmph!"
Standing behind Jiang Peng was a middle-aged man, not yet forty years old, with a resolute face, clear and gentle eyes that were sharp yet discerning. He wore a casual suit and had a tall and straight figure; he was definitely a handsome man.
The newcomer was none other than Wei Lan's father, Nan Yu, whose face was cold and stern, giving off an unapproachable air.
Upon hearing the familiar voice she hadn't heard in a long time, Wei Lan turned around and threw herself into the person's arms.
"Daddy~~"
next moment.
Nan Yu immediately beamed with joy.
"Oh, my dear daughter."
Wei Lan looked up and asked weakly, "Dad, where's Mom?"
"You brat, do you even care about me as your mother?"
A beautiful woman walked over from behind Nan Yu.
The beautiful woman had a flawless, meticulously sculpted face, and her ruby-like eyes were dazzling.
With the same short hair and a tall, slender figure, she was as curvy as Wei Lan, even more so.
If Wei Lan is a green apple, then the beautiful woman is a ripe peach, her every move captivating.
However, the beautiful woman's face was frosty and somewhat cold.
"Zhiyuan, what are you doing? Just now on the aircraft, you were worried about Lanlan, afraid that she had lost weight and was feeling wronged."
"Hmph! You two, father and daughter, are always causing me trouble."
Wei Zhiyuan glared coldly at Nan Yu, but her expression was no longer indifferent.
Nan Yu gave Wei Lan a wink.
Wei Lan understood.
"Mom~"
He hugged his mother tightly and became affectionate.
Wei Zhiyuan hugged Wei Lan and said, "You're always so mischievous. How have you been out there lately? You must have suffered some grievances."
"No, it's fine."
Wei Lan replied, Xiao Weiqing's face appearing in her mind.
"So, I shouldn't have come."
Wei Zhiyuan pretended to be angry.
"No, of course I'm happy that Mom can come," Wei Lan quickly explained, her words sincere.
"At least you have a conscience. We'll finish our business in a few days, and then you can come back with us." Wei Zhiyuan's tone left no room for negotiation.
Wei Lan smiled and said, "Okay, I understand."
However, after lowering her head, Wei Lan's eyes were full of reluctance.
"Jiang Peng, it's been a long time."
Jiang Peng said, "Auntie, it's been a long time."
"How is your mother's health?"
"My mother's health is pretty good."
Jiang Peng's mother is Wei Zhiyuan's older sister. She did not inherit the Wei family's pupil technique, nor did she awaken any particularly powerful extraordinary talents.
However, as a woman from the Wei family, her marriage was not bad.
"Jiang Peng, how's the task I assigned you going?"
At this moment, two more people came out from behind, one middle-aged and one young, who appeared to be a father and son.
Jiang Peng was quite surprised to see the person who came, but he still replied:
"The academy is almost ready. There's no shortage of Body Tempering Pills, and we have enough Moon Spring Spirit Liquid. The only problem is that we don't have enough Yuanling Fruits. The next batch won't be ready for a few more days. The academy needs to ensure that the students have enough resources for cultivation."
Wei Zhiyuan replied, "It's alright, it's only right, we'll just wait a few days."
"Ninth Brother, don't you think so?"
The middle-aged man, whom Wei Zhiyuan called Ninth Brother, nodded slightly. "Jiang Peng, take this card and give it to the academy. I'll come back in a few days. Wei Hong, let's go."
After the two left.
Jiang Peng frowned as he looked at the card in his hand. "Aunt Wei, why are they here? Weren't all the transactions with the academy handled by your branch of the family before?"
Wei Zhiyuan sighed, "You don't need to worry about it, I'll handle it."
Jiang Peng nodded and didn't ask any more questions.
"Uncle and Aunt, where are you staying tonight? Do you need me to book a hotel for you?"
"No need, we'll stay at Wei Lan's place. Wei Lan should be staying in a villa, right?"
"Huh? You're staying at my place?" Wei Lan was caught off guard.
"What, you're not welcome?"
Wei Lan waved her hands repeatedly, "How could that be? Of course you're welcome."
Jiang Peng sighed and gave Wei Lan a look that said, "Good luck to you."
"Uncle and Aunt, I'll be going now. Tomorrow, Wei Lan and I will show you around the academy."
"Okay, go ahead."
Jiang Peng then left.
He dialed Ningxing's number in a deserted place.
"Jiang Peng, what's up?"
"Principal Ning, Wei Chaoming has arrived."
Who is Wei Chaoming?
"It's about the resource transaction between the academy and the Wei family of Xinchang. Previously, the fourth branch of the Wei family was in charge, but this time, the second branch is in charge."
"Oh? There's a problem with the resources in the transaction?"
"No," Jiang Peng said, looking at the card in his hand.
"That's fine. As long as the quality and quantity of the resource transactions between the academy and the Wei family are acceptable, the academy will not interfere."
"Jiang Peng, I know your mother is from the Wei family, but even if you become a teacher at the academy, you must not interfere in the Wei family's internal affairs, especially when representing the academy. Do you understand?"
Ning Xing hung up the phone after saying that.
Jiang Peng clenched his fists; ultimately, it was because he wasn't strong enough.
the other side.
Wei Lan led Nan Yu and Wei Zhiyuan to Ziwei Courtyard, feeling extremely uncomfortable and restless the whole way.
