Chapter 27 - State

Xu Ning felt a warmth in his heart as he faced Aili's deep affection. His hands trembled as he took a few more kidney pills before he gently pulled her into his embrace.

Feeling the heat of her man's body, Aili moaned and retreated into his embrace, hugging him to her heart's content.

Although it was a silent night, it was worth more than a thousand words.

Aili left Xu Ning's arms and stretched. Her tits jiggling as she stretched. If Xu Ning was awake now, he would have started groping her.

She sat by the bed and quietly looked at Xu Ning's sleeping side profile. A set of conservative clothes that did not fit the succubus style had appeared on her body.

After looking at it for a long time, Aili's delicate oval face, which was between domineering and pure, was stained with a bit of worry, she muttered in a voice that could only be heard by herself, "Hubby's strength has increased a little too quickly. I wonder if those guys will notice..."

After being troubled for a while, Aili shook her head, she sighed and said, "Forget it. The revival of Hell is only at the initial stage. Even if they notice, they won't be able to do anything. Moreover, the powerhouses on the human side are not to be trifled with."

After saying that, Aili gently kissed Xu Ning on the side of his face as he slept soundly. She left with a reluctant look on her face.

...

At 3:33 pm, Xu Ning slowly woke up.

"Hmm..."

Xu Ning rubbed his eyes, which were a little sleepy, and then let out a scream.

"Ouch, my waist!"

After waking up, Xu Ning immediately felt a terrible ache in his back.

"Kidney pill, kidney pill."

Xu Ning found the kidney pills placed at the bedside and poured out a few pieces before swallowing them. After doing all this, he lay back on the bed weakly to absorb the effects of the medicine.

"Has Aili left?"

Xu Ning turned his head to look at the empty bed on the left side. His heart felt a little empty, especially when Aili's lingering body fragrance entered his nose. The emptiness felt even stronger.

Then, he smiled bitterly and said helplessly, "I'm still too weak..."

Xu Ning knew clearly that Aili left because he was too weak. The Yang Qi in his body could not support him long enough for Aili to stay the night. It had only been one night and they had not had enough sex…it had depleted his Yang Qi many times. If it were not for the medicine, he would not have been able to perform so well.

"I have to continue working hard to become stronger."

Xu Ning said softly, his eyes filled with determination.

As a man, he had to become stronger. If he did not become stronger, he would not be able to protect himself in this world if Hell comes to Earth. He would not even be able to share a room with Aili. He could not accept this!

After all, he and Aili were already husband and wife. If he could not even satisfy his wife, then he would be a good-for-nothing man!

After more than ten minutes, Xu Ning's Yang Qi was restored once again, and he became energetic again.

"Anyway, I don't have any classes for a few days, so I'll cultivate for a while."

Xu Ning poured out a few kidney pills and was about to consume them when there was a knock on the door.

"Dong, dong, dong!"

Xu Ning frowned and muttered, "Could it be a demon again?"

He was already a little jittery now, but it was not his fault. The people who had knocked on his door during this period of time were all fucking demons. Anyone would be jittery.

Fortunately, the familiar voice of the person outside made him give up on this idea.

"Brother Xu, are you at home? Open the door."

"I'm coming, I'm coming. Wait a moment!"

Xu Ning shouted toward the door. He quickly put on his clothes and trotted to the door.

When he opened the door, it was indeed Zhao Dezhu.

Zhao Dezhu saw Xu Ning open the door and said with a smile, "I didn't disturb you by coming here rashly, did I? Brother Xu."

Xu Ning waved his hand and said with a chuckle, "It's nothing. Why would Brother Zhao disturb me when he's here? Please come in."

As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Ning turned to the side and made a space for Zhao Dezhu to enter.

"Then I won't stand on ceremony with Brother Xu."

Seeing that Xu Ning was so well-versed in the ways of the world, Zhao Dezhu did not stand on ceremony with him.

The two of them came to the sofa in the living room. As soon as they sat down, Zhao Dezhu said with a face full of praise, "I didn't expect Brother Xu to have such a profound cultivation at such a young age. He could even handle a level-four demon with ease."

Xu Ning waved his hand humbly and said, "No, no, you're over praising me."

That was right, he had a profound cultivation! Pooh! If he had a profound cultivation, he would have pressed Aili under his crotch and rubbed her every day.

Without waiting for Zhao Dezhu to continue bragging, Xu Ning said straightforwardly, "Brother Zhao, why did you come to look for me today? Is there something you need?"

Xu Ning did not believe that Zhao Dezhu was here to chat with him. An official like him would not look for him for no reason. If he came to look for him, it was either because he had something to do or because he had something to do.

Hearing this, Zhao Dezhu smiled. He thought to himself, 'Xu Ning is really an impatient person.'

"Alright, I won't talk nonsense with Brother Xu. I'm here today to give Brother Xu a commission reward. Regarding the money, Leader Xu has already transferred it to your bank account. The spiritual medicine is with me."

As he spoke, Zhao Dezhu took out a mahogany box from his large backpack.

"Spiritual medicine!"

Xu Ning reached out to receive it. After hearing Zhao Dezhu's words, he remembered that he had completed the task and received a spiritual medicine as a reward.

Xu Ning carefully sized up the mahogany box in his hand. From his senses, there was a strange aura around the box. This aura was somewhat similar to the spiritual power in his body.

"Brother Xu, if you consume this spiritual medicine, your cultivation should improve by a bit."

Seeing Xu Ning's interest, Zhao Dezhu could not help but say.

Although Xu Ning's cultivation was high, it was still a fourth-grade spirit herb. Even a cultivator of the third level of the Dharma could improve greatly after taking it.

"Cultivation..."

This familiar word entered Xu Ning's ears again. His situation was a bit special. He was not like a normal cultivator who would take a master as a disciple. Therefore, he did not know much about the cultivation system in this world.

Therefore, he asked curiously, "Brother Zhao, how do you divide the cultivation realms?"

Zhao Dezhu tilted his head when he heard this. He looked at him with some confusion and thought to himself, 'Isn't this Brother Xu the son of Leader Xu? His cultivation level is so high. Why would he ask such a question?'

Although he did not understand, Zhao Dezhu was smart enough not to ask too much. After all, this newbie who seemed to know nothing was a real boss… In the future, he might even need his help on some investigative missions.

"The realms of cultivation, ah. These are all passed down from the past. There are three major realms of cultivation. The first is the three realms of spells. The characteristic is to nourish the True Qi in the body. When the True Qi is enough, you can use some simple spells to resist the enemy. The three realms are divided into spells one, two, and three.

"The second is the three realms of art. The unique feature is to nourish the soul. When using a technique, it can unleash extremely powerful might. The three realms are divided into Mages, Earth Masters, and Celestial Masters.

"The last realm..."
