As he said this, his father suddenly paused.
Playing coy again?
Li Qianfan was extremely speechless. These intentional acts of playing coy suddenly made him feel that his never-before-met father was somewhat unreliable.
It was only a pause of a few seconds, but his father’s voice rang out again, and this time it became much more serious. He said, “Inside the Demon Egg, there is an unexpected treasure that you will definitely love, but the method to hatch it is somewhat difficult. That is to collect the powers of the twenty-four solar terms.”
“And the power of the solar terms can only be found in women born on the day of the solar term. As long as you have a relationship with a woman who possesses the power of the solar terms, you can extract the power from their body. After collecting all twenty-four powers, you can hatch the Demon Egg.”
“Moreover, after it is successfully hatched, it will guide you to find me and your mother. Keep it up, son, this is the most important task you need to complete so far.”
With that, his father’s voice abruptly stopped and disappeared without a trace.
“???”
These words left Li Qianfan full of question marks, sitting in place. The first two gifts had been clearly explained by his father—one could assist his cultivation, the other allowed him to remain virile, making him the man of the night twelve times over.
But the explanation for the third gift left him extremely helpless. Why not clearly say what’s inside the Demon Egg? Curiosity could kill someone!
It seems that his father truly wasn’t reliable!
However, his father’s last words instantly filled Li Qianfan with vigor.
After hatching the Demon Egg, it would guide him in finding his parents.
In that case, he must quickly collect the twenty-four powers of the solar terms, hatch the Demon Egg, and then embark on the journey to find his parents.
But there was a problem: the power of the solar terms can only be found in women. This meant he needed to be with at least twenty-four women born on the days of the solar terms.
That was no easy task!
But to find his parents, no matter how difficult, he must complete it.
Determination unwavering, Li Qianfan’s face showed resolute determination as he closed his eyes and examined the Demon Egg again, only to find that there were twenty-four empty slots on its surface.
Presumably, each power collected could fill one of these corresponding slots.
Then, Li Qianfan recalled the other two gifts, and with a thought, the formulas for Spirit Gathering Liquid and Yang Strengthening Pill appeared in his mind.
Spirit Gathering Liquid was a marvelous thing for cultivators; bathing in it over time not only altered one’s constitution but also strengthened the physical body, and most importantly, it contained a large amount of Spiritual Energy which greatly helped cultivators break through barriers.
However, seeing the ingredients needed caused Li Qianfan to frown slightly. A total of a hundred herbs were required, and among these, at least twenty were very rare, especially since the crafting of Spirit Gathering Liquid required a thousand-year-old ginseng as a catalyst.
The mere thought of this thousand-year-old ginseng terrified him; he had seen on TV that such ginseng was priceless and not just something money could buy.
In addition to so many rare herbs, the cost of crafting a bottle of Spirit Gathering Liquid was unimaginable.
But Li Qianfan could understand, as it was something that helped cultivators enhance their cultivation level, it would definitely be extremely expensive.
Next, Li Qianfan began to look over the crafting method for the Power Pill, and immediately heaved a sigh of relief. Compared to Spirit Source Liquid, the cost of the Power Pill was negligible.
It could be made from just over thirty types of herbs, and all were very common herbs.
Suddenly, Li Qianfan had a brilliant idea: since the cost of Yang Strengthening Pill was so low, he could sell them to make money, and then use that money to buy the herbs needed to craft Spirit Gathering Liquid.
In today’s society, many men, due to long-term drinking and staying up late, suffered severe depletion of their physical strength and were unable to satisfy their wives in bed, leading many men to despair.
To enhance their capabilities in bed, they were willing to spend a lot of money on various supplements, and there were even many who, in desperation, were cheated out of a great deal of money by unscrupulous businesses.
And his father said, after taking Yang Strengthening Pill, one could maintain vigor, becoming a man of the night twelve times over.
Such a product, once on the market, would definitely be snapped up by countless men, and even women would come to buy it for their husbands—after all, who wouldn’t want a husband who is formidable in bed?
But soon Li Qianfan became serious, was the Yang Strengthening Pill really as powerful as his father had said?
He had to first craft and try the effect before considering selling it.
“Xiao Fan, when do you have time to come to my house for dinner?”
Just then, the voice of Hu Li sounded, pulling Li Qianfan, who was deep in thought, back to reality. He looked up and saw that Hu Li had already approached him.
Huh, why is there a group of intense hot gas inside Hu Li’s body?
Li Qianfan’s thoughts stirred, and he activated the “Dragon and Phoenix Mystery Skill”, concentrating his True Qi in his eyes to carefully examine Hu Li’s body. After figuring out her condition, he gradually became excited.
Power of the Solar Terms?
Li Qianfan immediately asked, “Sister Li, when is your birthday?”
Seeing that Li Qianfan responded to her with a question, Hu Li asked puzzledly, “Huh? Why are you asking about my birthday?”
“It’s quite normal among colleagues to know each other’s birthdays, isn’t it?”
Li Qianfan said with a smile.
Hu Li didn’t think much about it and answered, “My birthday is May 5th.”
Instantly, Li Qianfan started calculating in his mind. If he remembered correctly, May 5th was the day of “Beginning of Summer”, and he instantly understood why there was such an intense hot breath inside Hu Li’s body—she possessed the Power of the Solar Term of the Beginning of Summer.
Lucky, isn’t it?
Li Qianfan couldn’t help but exclaim in his heart. He had originally thought that finding the Power of the Solar Terms would be troublesome, but there was one right beside him, which meant that he must seize Hu Li no matter what.
“Xiao Fan, why are you acting so strange today, loving to daydream? I just asked you a question. Do you have time to come to my house for a meal?” Hu Li asked again.
“Of course, I will!”
Li Qianfan hardly hesitated and immediately nodded in agreement. For him, this was a great opportunity to win over Hu Li, and he must cherish it.
“Tomorrow then, I’m busy today!”
Earlier, Li Qianfan had made plans with Hong Jiumei to go to her house tonight. Now that they had become involved, there was no so-called shyness, and they would certainly have a wild night.
Tonight was for sure to compensate for the regrets left in the office.
“Okay, then tomorrow.” Hu Li nodded gently and said, “It just so happens I have a day off tomorrow, so find an excuse to leave work early. I’ll prepare a meal at home and wait for you.”
“Your husband and I just fought. Will he agree to you inviting me to dinner?”
Li Qianfan asked with a smile.
After all, he had beaten Liu Yunchuan twice. A normal man would undoubtedly feel disgraced and while he might not seek crazy revenge, he definitely would not easily forgive him.
“After you beat him up last time, he disappeared and hasn’t returned home yet. And he often likes to disappear, each time for ten days to half a month, so don’t worry about him.”
Hu Li spoke very relaxedly, looking quite happy with Liu Yunchuan not being at home.
Thinking about it, it made sense. Their marital relationship was poor and since Liu Yunchuan was prone to domestic violence, what woman would want such a man to be at home often?
It’s better if he’s dead outside!
Li Qianfan chuckled and said, “Alright, then I’ll come to your house for dinner tomorrow.” Stay updated through empire
As the two were chatting, the door was pushed open by Sun Qian. She glanced around at the technicians; her eyes finally resting on Li Qianfan, she said, “Li Qianfan, a customer has arrived, it’s your turn.”
“Right away!”
Hearing about the incoming customer, you couldn’t imagine how excited Li Qianfan was. Having the Demon Egg inside him, any customer made him full of anticipation.
You never know which customer might possess the Power of the Solar Terms he needed!
“Sister Li, I’m going to attend to the customer now,” Li Qianfan said as he picked up his case and walked out of the break room.
Normally, Sun Qian would quickly return to the front desk after calling out, but today she stood at the door waiting for Li Qianfan, and then they went to the customer’s private room together.
“Why aren’t you going to work and following me instead?”
Li Qianfan was very surprised and asked.
“A Fan, I just searched on Baidu. Someone said that if a man’s length reaches fifteen centimeters and can last for half an hour, he can make a woman obey!”
The naive Sun Qian, with a blushing face, softly asked Li Qianfan, “I really want to know, how big are you? And how long can you last?”
