CHAPTER 486: CHAPTER 486: THE CALAMITY OF CELESTIAL BEAUTY!

Ye Feng obtained a vast number of herbs, and the herbs acquired here are at least ten thousand years old.

Unfortunately, they are herbs that cannot be replanted; otherwise, planting them in the Ancient Jade Gourd would truly be a boon.

Besides the ten-thousand-year-old herbs obtained here, there are also many herbs obtained earlier, all of which Ye Feng has refined into pills according to their level.

"Oh my! Such a rich aroma of medicine, such terrifying efficacy. Is Mr. Ye indeed a super Alchemy Master?"

"No wonder... No wonder Mr. Ye holds such a high status in the Divine Dragon Guard; just this skill in the Alchemy Technique is enough."

"If only Mr. Ye could refine medicine for our family, that would be excellent, but how can we impress such an outstanding talent?"

"If I could have Mr. Ye refine my herbs into pills, that would be wonderful."

....

Seeing Ye Feng skilled in alchemy and capable of refining top-grade pills, everyone was shocked, wishing they could invite Ye Feng to refine pills for them.

But they were fully aware that, given Ye Feng’s status, how could he possibly refine pills for them?

"Mr. Ye, could you refine a batch of pills for me? There will be a generous reward!"

"Mr. Ye, please help me refine, I can accept any condition."

"Mr. Ye!"

Still, some were not deterred and wanted Ye Feng to refine pills for them.

"No time, I don’t even have enough time to refine my pills, where would I find the time." Ye Feng unhesitatingly declined and continued to refine pills.

Under Ye Feng’s refinements, his Alchemy Technique grew increasingly sophisticated, producing more pills from the same herbs, with better efficacy, which made him very satisfied.

Conversely, those who were refused became even more eager for Ye Feng to refine pills for them.

Originally, they thought of using force, but seeing Feng Gu, Old Gong, and Situ Jing beside Ye Feng made them desist.

....

Meanwhile, during this period, Celestial Beauty Company was not peaceful.

After infiltrating Celestial Beauty Company, spies from major companies immediately tried to obtain the core secrets of Celestial Beauty Company.

But no matter how hard they searched, they were unable to find the core formula of Celestial Beauty Company.

Even when these spies used various tactics to approach the company’s top levels, they still made no gains.

Even the top level of Celestial Beauty Company could not access the formula for the Beauty and Skin Care Water, leaving many spies to return empty-handed.

Meanwhile, in Celestial Beauty Company’s factory, Xu Tian, guarding from the shadows, captured a spy attempting to infiltrate.

"I’ve lost count of how many this is already. It seems this terrifying profit makes many people incredibly greedy?" Xu Tian sneered disdainfully, holding the spy.

Then, Xu Tian scoffed and roared, "But can you lay a hand on Master’s belongings? Anyone daring to harm Master, I, Xu Tian, will fight you to the death."

Indeed, to Xu Tian, Ye Feng’s interests were more vital than his own life; anyone daring to harm Ye Feng, Xu Tian would fight to death.

This is why during this period, Xu Tian and Nameless were on high alert, ensuring no spies succeed.

In this period, countless spies were caught and imprisoned, awaiting Ye Feng’s return for punishment.

Learning of such circumstances, Ye Qian couldn’t sit still and assisted Xu Tian and the others in watching over the factory, easing their burden.

Under their vigilance, the factory operated smoothly, constantly generating profit for Ye Feng.

Elsewhere, Li Lingui felt his life had reached its peak.

Indeed, not only was his career improving, but he also felt that true love had come to him.

During this period, after some development, Li Lingui felt that he and Xue Hong had entered a passionate romance, even confirming their relationship.

Because Xue Hong was very considerate and knew how to please Li Lingui, he was infatuated with her, head over heels.

And Xue Hong, having gained Li Lingui’s trust, acted with even more impunity, able to launch more operations at Celestial Beauty Company.

Originally, Xue Hong thought that based on her relationship with Li Lingui, she could obtain the formula for the Beauty and Skin Care Water.

However, after various plans, she still failed to obtain the formula.

Becoming anxious after repeated failures, Xue Hong arranged to meet Li Lingui at a high-end rural resort on the outskirts today.

At this moment, Li Lingui and Xue Hong were already on the way to the resort.

Looking at Xue Hong beside him, Li Lingui smiled smugly while driving.

Initially, after failing in his previous relationship, Li Lingui didn’t expect to fall in love with someone else so quickly.

But Li Lingui didn’t anticipate that heaven would send such a wonderful woman like Xue Hong to him, and Xue Hong would fall hopelessly in love with him.

He felt that Xue Hong was destined to be his wife.

"Hong Hong! You’re so wonderful." Watching Xue Hong beside him, Li Lingui exclaimed excitedly.

"Brother Gui, I never want to leave you in this lifetime." Xue Hong expertly feigned shyness, her face blushing as she answered.

Seeing Xue Hong’s reaction, Li Lingui smiled in satisfaction.

If Li Lingui knew that all of Xue Hong’s actions were merely for a mission, with even her name being fake, who knows how he would react....

Soon, they arrived at the resort.

Although it was far from the city, quite remote, it was truly excellent.

Meals were freshly made, and it also offered many life experiences to enjoy.

After picking a large quantity of ingredients, the two reserved a private room and began waiting for their food.

Upon entering the private room, Xue Hong threw herself into Li Lingui’s arms.

"Brother Gui!" At this moment, Xue Hong hesitated to speak.

"What’s the matter?" Seeing Xue Hong’s reaction, Li Lingui asked in confusion.

"Brother Gui, do you love me?" Xue Hong suddenly looked earnestly at Li Lingui and asked.

"Of course I love you." Li Lingui responded without hesitation.

"Brother Gui, I’m in trouble, can you help me?" Hearing Li Lingui’s answer, Xue Hong mustered up courage despite being a bit embarrassed and spoke.

All of this was an act to gain Li Lingui’s sympathy.

"Whatever it is, just tell me, who else would I help if not you?" Without even thinking, Li Lingui agreed to Xue Hong’s words.

"Brother Gui, you’re so kind." Xue Hong was moved, throwing herself into Li Lingui’s arms as she said softly: "It’s like this, my family also runs a company but owes a lot of money. The creditors threaten us, saying if we don’t comply with their demands then... then...."

Saying this, Xue Hong began to softly cry, deploying her killer move, enough to make countless people head over heels, but unknown if Li Lingui can withstand....
