After the banquet, Ye Fan passed the Divine Refinement Technique to Lang Sun Chuan.
He briefly explained it to him, encouraging him to practice diligently.
Lang Sun Chuan was already a Master Alchemist, and with Ye Fan's Divine Refinement Technique, given some time, his skills in artifact forging would surely reach new heights, allowing him to soar further in his craft.
Once he had transmitted the Divine Refinement Technique to Lang Sun Chuan, Ye Fan returned to his residence.
Now that Ye Fan served as the head Guest Expert of the Supreme Demon Sect, he naturally had his own Palace within the sect.
However, Ye Fan preferred tranquility; in his Palace, aside from Ye Qingling who took care of him closely, all other servants had been dismissed by him.
For everything needed in the Palace, Ye Qingling would simply go out and give instructions, and someone would quickly bring what was required.
As soon as Ye Fan returned to the Palace, Ye Qingling approached him with a joyful expression and said, "Young Master, I just heard those people outside say that your Cultivation has broken through again. Even the Demon Son of the Bloodthirsty Demon Sect is no match for you!"
Having spent some time at the Supreme Demon Sect, although Ye Qingling mostly stayed in the Palace and rarely went out, she still had some understanding of both the Supreme Demon Sect and the Bloodthirsty Demon Sect.
These two major forces were both pinnacle powers of the Southern Region's Demoness.
The title of Demon Son from the Bloodthirsty Demon Sect sounded quite impressive.
Moreover, Ye Qingling had heard from disciples of the Supreme Demon Sect that this Demon Son was a super strong figure at the Peak of Ascension.
Ascension Stage!
Such a powerful being was something that Ye Qingling and the others had never even dared to imagine before.
Their ancestor, Ye Jiuchong of the Ye Family, had only reached the early stages of Great Achievement in cultivation.
Yet he had already become the foremost expert of Heavenly River Mansion, leading the Ye Family to become the most prominent family in Heavenly River Mansion.
A strong practitioner at the Ascension Stage was simply an existence that felt utterly unreachable.
However, now their young master had easily defeated such a figure, and just thinking about it made Ye Qingling feel exhilarated.
Ye Fan looked at the excited Ye Qingling and smiled, nodding slightly.
Yet deep down, he began to ponder.
After all, Ye Qingling was considered his family.
Not only was she a member of the Ye Clan, but if one were to count it, she was also his cousin.
Although she was currently by his side, her strength seemed a bit too low.
Ye Fan pondered for a moment, feeling that he needed to find a way to help Ye Qingling quickly improve her abilities.
"Young Master, why are you staring at me like that?" Seeing Ye Fan continuously gaze at her without speaking, Ye Qingling shot him a sideways glance and said softly, "If you're tired and want to rest, then let me take care of you!"
With that, Ye Qingling walked over to Ye Fan's side, preparing to help him out of his clothes.
However, Ye Fan suddenly spoke up, "Qingling Sister, wait a moment before resting; there's no rush."
"Not in a hurry?" Ye Qingling said irritably. "Then why are you staring at me like that?"
Hearing this, Ye Fan felt a bit speechless, realizing that Ye Qingling might have misunderstood him.
He deliberately adopted a serious tone and said, "Sister Qingling, what are you thinking? The reason I'm looking at you is that I'm trying to figure out how to help you quickly improve your strength."
Ye Fan continued, "This place is not like the Heavenly River Mansion; the cultivation level at the Golden Core Stage is simply too low. If I'm not around and something happens, you won't even have the ability to protect yourself."
Although Ye Qingling had taken the Life Creation Pill from Ye Fan and made some progress in her realm, she was still stuck at the Golden Core Stage and hadn't even stepped into the Nascent Soul Stage.
This made Ye Fan realize that while the pills were useful, they were ultimately just external aids.
To help Ye Qingling's strength improve rapidly, he needed to start from the root.
What does it mean to start from the root?
It meant changing Ye Qingling's constitution.
Only by altering her constitution could her cultivation speed increase dramatically and allow her to advance as quickly as possible.
"You actually want to help me improve my strength!" Ye Qingling exclaimed, a wave of inexplicable excitement rising within her.
However, she quickly shot him a glare and said, "Young Master, I've come all the way to the Southern Wilderness with you, and you still want to abandon me?"
Ye Fan's gaze turned towards Ye Qingling, who looked quite upset.
Ye Fan quickly explained, "Qingling Sister, you're overthinking it. What I mean is, we can't always be together, right?"
"Since I'm here to take care of you, of course we need to stay together," Ye Qingling said seriously.
Ye Fan glanced at Ye Qingling and said, "Qingling Sister, you know about the Ascension Token, right?"
"Yes, I know," Ye Qingling nodded. However, she soon seemed to recall something, and her expression changed to one of disappointment and a hint of worry as she said, "Young Master, do you mean that you will soon be entering the Immortal's Cave?"
Ye Fan nodded earnestly. "It should be soon! That's why I want to help you improve your strength as quickly as possible."
"Even though you should be safe in the Supreme Demon Sect, your own strength is the most important thing at any time," Ye Fan added.
Upon hearing this, Ye Qingling nodded heavily.
She certainly understood this logic.
Moreover, she suddenly realized that if she didn't improve her strength soon, she might not even have the qualification to stay by Ye Fan's side and serve him in the future!
After all, Ye Fan's strength was rising too quickly, and the distance between them would only grow wider.
Thus, Ye Qingling looked at Ye Fan with a glimmer of hope in her eyes and asked, "So Young Master, have you thought of a way to help me improve my strength?"
Ye Fan nodded lightly. "Of course, but this method is a bit troublesome..."
"A bit troublesome?" Seeing Ye Fan hesitate to continue, Ye Qingling looked somewhat puzzled but shook her head and said, "Young Master, if it's too troublesome, then let's forget it!"
Ye Fan scratched his head and said, "Actually, it's a bit troublesome, but not too much. It just requires your cooperation!"
"I see! Young Master, if you help me improve my strength, of course I will cooperate with you!" Ye Qingling replied, looking enlightened. "Young Master, quickly tell me what the method is! How should I cooperate with you?"
Ye Fan spoke seriously, "Cultivation is not something that can be achieved overnight. Haste makes waste. If you solely rely on external forces, using elixirs to enhance your strength, while it may lead to a quick rise in your cultivation in the short term—even a dramatic one—it is akin to pulling up seedlings to help them grow; it's hard to go far with such an approach."
"Therefore, if you want to become stronger, the most important thing is to rely on yourself. Step by step, solid cultivation is the way to true mastery."
"So," Ye Fan glanced at Ye Qingling somewhat awkwardly and said, "the best method I can think of is to help you improve your physique so that your cultivation speed increases. However, it requires you..."
Ye Fan pointed at Ye Qingling, seemingly hesitant to continue.
"What do you need from me?" Ye Qingling looked at herself and then at Ye Fan, puzzled.
Ye Fan cleared his throat and said, slightly embarrassed, "I need you to take off all your clothes so that I can properly perform..."
