He took a deep breath and stretched his body, letting out a loud "eeeyAAAAAA!"
"..."
Feeling the euphoric sensation of his muscles stretching, he exhaled a long "Haaa~".
"..."
"Feels great!" Yun Che spun his arms and cracked his shoulders, wearing a smile as he looked towards the speechless gaze of the redhead. "What? Never seen a handsome man before?"
"... It has been 21 days since you started cultivation." Completely ignoring Yun Che's question, Jasmine added, "For you to reach the 2nd stage of the True Profound Realm, this princess is impressed. Since you are going outside now, this princess will go back to the Sky Poison Pearl."
In a burst of green light, she vanished.
Staring at the empty air, Yun Che shrugged.
"Oh well. She really needs to learn how to relax. I really want to know how she can look serious all the time."
For the past "month", Yun Che had spent all his time cultivating.
He wanted to at least enter the True Profound Realm, so he didn't spend much time cultivating the Great Way of the Buddha.
Now that he had not only reached the True Profound Realm but also its second level, he thought it was time to put more effort into the Great Way of the Buddha instead.
"But before that, let me take a tour outside." Yun Che smiled and left the Profound Gathering Tower.
Having stayed in that place for a month doing nothing but cultivation, he was now bored.
He wanted some fresh air and maybe some delicious food.
So, he decided to leave the Blue Wind Profound Palace that day to find something good to eat before returning to cultivate the Great Way of the Buddha.
As he left the Profound Gathering Tower, the silence of the inner palace hit him.
He liked the quiet environment where there was no excessive noise.
Since most disciples in the inner palace spent their time cultivating, barely anyone could be found outside.
As such, the inner palace would be quiet most of the time with only a small amount of noise from time to time.
'Man… I really miss Cang Yue. I'll definitely hug her to replenish my Princess energy before going back to cultivate.'
Leaving behind the inner palace, middle palace, and then the outer palace, Yun Che exited the Blue Wind Profound Palace grounds and entered the capital.
As expected from the capital, it was filled with people to the brim.
No matter where he looked, he could see vendors selling all kinds of things, most of which went above his head.
Asking a passerby for a good restaurant in the area, Yun Che happily made his way there.
A large establishment appeared in front of him, making him click his tongue at how extravagant it was. Yun Che felt poor just standing in front of it.
"Man… No matter where, rich people have it easy."
Suddenly, Yun Che remembered a mine that would be used as a reason for war, causing his eyes to light up.
"Damn! How could I forget it! I should go back to Floating Cloud City and get all that money. I might as well visit Aunt and Grandpa too."
While he was lost in thought, a sudden shout interrupted him.
Curious, he looked towards where the screams were coming from and saw a crowd of people gathered around something.
As a curious gentleman, he made his way there and found two women.
Both had veils around their faces, so it was hard to see them, but just from their body structure and their skin, one could tell that they were absolute beauties.
But that was not what caught Yun Che's attention; it was the fact that one of the women looked to be in pain.
She had her eyes tightly closed and her jaw clenched. From time to time, she would cough out blood, showing how bad her situation was.
"Anyone! Please! Can anyone help my sister? She was poisoned! Please, is there a doctor here?!" While the other woman shouted for help towards the onlookers, not a single person was willing to walk forward and help her.
This caused Yun Che to frown. No matter how cold these people were, they should at least help her.
He could only shake his head and feel his assessment of people in this world was falling with each passing day.
'Though I can't really talk… My previous world wasn't much better either.'
Pushing people aside, Yun Che walked closer to the women, attracting everyone's attention.
Her eyes were misty due to tears as she looked towards Yun Che with a pleading gaze. Seeing this, Yun Che smiled.
"It's alright, miss. Though I may not look like one, I have studied under a medical saint in the past. Can you allow me to check what kind of poison she was given?"
The woman nodded rapidly, making Yun Che raise a brow.
He thought she agreed way too fast for someone putting all her hopes on a stranger, but he didn't dwell too much on it and checked the poisoned woman's nerves.
"Hm. Was she attacked by an ice-type profound beast in the past?" With a frown, Yun Che asked, causing the woman's eyes to widen with surprise.
"Yes! My sister is an ice profound energy practitioner. In the past, she had left to get a core of Earth Profound Realm beast to further improve her cultivation but was injured in the process. We didn't think much of it at that time, but… this brother, is my sister poisoned due to the ice profound beast?"
"Likely." Yun Che replied. "The poison she has in her body is called Ice Poison. It slowly congests the profound entrances of someone before reaching their vessels, in return killing them."
The woman's eyes widened in horror, but Yun Che shook and said, "But it's not something I cannot remove."
With a single motion, a set of needles appeared in his hand. Inspecting them, Yun Che looked towards the poisoned woman before a sudden frown appeared over his face.
For some reason, looking at her, he suddenly felt a burst of annoyance appear in his heart.
Taking a deep breath, he pushed these thoughts to the back of his head before injecting the purification power of the Sky Poison Pearl in the needles.
Since he was in public, he obviously cannot use the power of Sky Poison Pearl so openly.
As such, he used needles as an intermediary for it.
With a quick motion, the needles were now injected at different places within the woman's body.
Soon, from the places where needles were, a white smoke started to come out.
Ignoring the people who started clapping behind him, making him annoyed, he took the needles back and said, "This should do. With this, all the ice poison inside her has left her body. As long as she rests for some time, she should be cured fully."
"Thank you! Thank you so much! If there is anything I can do, please tell me, I'll definitely do it!"
Yun Che waved his hand as a wryly smile appeared over his face.
"No, it's alright. Anyways, I'm getting late so I'll take my leave first. Take care."
Without waiting for their reply, Yun Che left the place. He was getting hungry. He needed to eat or he might lose consciousness due to starvation.

PS: For people complaining that he is following the plot, I think they do not understand that unlike other worlds, this world has its Creation Goddess ordaining the fate and destiny of everyone, especially Yun Che and Xia Qingyue. To understand it a little bit and how massively it impacts the story, you should know that Xia Qingyue shouldn't have existed in the first place. Her very existence was created by the Ancestral Goddess to set Yun Che's fate on a linear path.
There will be some points the protagonist might not follow, but there are some that he will be forced to follow. On the topic of that now, please vote down below if Chu Yuechan should be pregnant or not.
Just remember, after gaining Dragon God's Legacy, the first person Yun Che has sex with will have a 100% chance of pregnancy due to Dragon Virgin Seed. That was the reason why Chu Yuechan became pregnant in the original. As such, we can vote down below if the pregnancy should happen this time or not!
Yes!
No!
