This separation of flesh and blood implanted into weapons looks very promising.

If she had ample savings, Zhang Huaping would have considered investing in the other party.

After all, many times, some legendary figures always rise from obscurity and bloom brilliantly in their era.

Of course, the key to this technology is not just the separation and research of one's own flesh and blood structure.

It also requires many blacksmiths to create extremely fine supporting magical artifacts and various mechanical organs.

Zhang Huaping sighed:

"In this world, everyone reads to open their minds. There is no shortage of imaginative pioneers, which is why the Immortal Path civilization still advances rapidly, changing again and again, hoping she will achieve something."

"And what I can do to help her is to use my insignificant knowledge to assist her with the initial confusion."

As she thought about this, she arrived at the steward's room.

At this time, Jiucai Rong and others in the room had already organized the purchasing list.

After taking the list from them, Zhang Huaping gave it a quick glance, nodded, and smiled: "No problem! These materials will need to circulate for a bit, come back tomorrow or the day after."

"Wait, add a Spiritual Root—Sedon," the Medical Fairy couldn't help but rush over, open the door, and say, panting heavily.

"Why?" Jiucai Rong asked for a reason.

"I want to get a River Demon pet..." She wasn't able to finish before Jiucai Rong denied it.

"No, spend your own money. The funding for this application is not approved!" Jiucai Rong would not approve funding so easily; these people mostly wanted to line their pockets and do their own shady operations.

Unlike me, who is so upright? I only want to save money for the manor.

And in Zhang Huaping's eyes, it seemed that the entire manor didn't appreciate this Medical Fairy who has dreams and hopes to embark on the Righteous path.

After all.

The Demon Path families' rejection of righteous people is the norm.

Moreover, the passing blacksmiths frequently looked at the Medical Fairy with anger, clearly showing she was being targeted.

But in reality, these blacksmiths had eavesdropped on the Medical Fairy and thought:

"Scary, this woman is serious." "She wants to plant cotton for River Demon babies, turning them into fluffy pets?"

"Too terrifying." "Is this what a medical student is like?"

"I wouldn't dare have such a girlfriend." "Why do River Demons look cuter the more I look at them?" "It's over, it's over, this woman is constantly twisting our views."

...

Zhang Huaping noticed their vigilant and annoyed looks at the Medical Fairy and understood.

It was clearly divided into two camps.

Should this girl be isolated if she wants to be a good person and transform her inherited Demon Path Spiritual Root?

Should good people be targeted?

She looked at those blacksmiths glaring at the Medical Fairy, and they hurriedly put on a cold and stiff smile when they noticed her eyes, standing straight and looking at her neatly, which startled her.

Is this... a warning to me?

She clenched her fists, then relaxed them.

I can't even protect myself, so I can't help her, oh well, just another compromise in life.

In the darkness, she yearns for sunshine, and have I not done the same?

"Farewell." Zhang Huaping stood up very rationally.

"Alright, we'll meet next time."

Jiucai Rong personally saw her off.

After Zhang Huaping left, Jiucai Rong asked the Medical Fairy beside her: "What happened just now, scared others, why do I feel her mood isn't right?"

"I felt the whole process was normal."

The Medical Fairy shook her head, recalling the earlier events, and didn't find anything wrong:

"We were just talking, and those blacksmiths didn't come to disturb the medical room, hmm, probably shocked by my new plan."

After understanding the whole matter, Jiucai Rong took out the Medical Fairy's drawing with some amusement, "Did you design this?"

"Not bad, right."

The light in the Medical Fairy's eyes showed that the River Demon sleeping bag was just her first milestone, with dreams of the stars and the sea.

"It's alright."

Jiucai Rong thought for a moment and gave a high affirmation:

"Why need to cultivate the Ancient Technique? We'll pave our own New Technique? We cultivate too slowly, can't cultivate it, your approach is nice, if we install it into magical artifact prosthetics, we can somewhat protect the manor's combat power."

Normal cultivators don't use this stuff.

People cultivate the Five Elements and Four Viscera, but you install magical artifacts, what's left to cultivate?

But these blacksmiths can't cultivate anyway, relying on external things can boost combat power.

Furthermore, unlike fleshly cultivation bodies, they don't disappear when they jump into the furnace.

After death, their next life can inherit the implanted magical artifact gear.

Su Yuniang gave a thumbs up: "A whole new Blood Separation Flower Spiritual Root cultivation technique belonging to our tradition? Good stuff, it feels very fitting for us, a historical milestone!"

"Isn't this project established, wouldn't it support some funding?" the Medical Fairy said.

She's not that unscrupulous Food God who engages in tobacco and alcohol economics; she's truly trying to push the manor's technology tree forward.

"In your dreams."

Jiucai Rong couldn't be bothered with her, "At most, it'll just give you a green light for the River Demon pet. You sell this pet, and if everyone has one, the money you earn might exceed mine."

In fact, he was very supportive.

Each person having a River Demon baby is a boost to the economy.

These blacksmiths will, in turn, work twice as hard. Otherwise, how can they afford to raise pets?

Rebirth loans, Embers loans, River Demon loans... Everyone carrying heavy loans must work even harder to make money for the Manor Master.

Now, if they don't buy grain for winter, dare to start a fuss, just take their loans to say something.

If they haven't even repaid their loans, how does starving them a few meals hurt?

"By the way." The Medical Fairy toyed with two paper talismans, "Just now, that businesswoman sister gave me two Continuing Ash Talismans!"

"They're not for you; they're for the manor, to earn some goodwill," Jiucai Rong saw through at a glance.

"Then who will use them?" Su Yuniang seemed a bit eager.

"Hmm, 50 magic coins per talisman, is that okay?" Jiucai Rong said.

"Stingy."

Su Yuniang and the Medical Fairy stared angrily.

How did the old steward find this management prodigy!

...

...

Ning Zheng stood atop the manor's tallest building—the clock tower of the steward's room, gazing at the blacksmiths coming and going in the manor, with complex emotions.

——What are they doing?

This was Ning Zheng's thought after secretly watching them entertain the merchants.

Not setting up a warming array before made him very guilty.

Who would have thought that they not only didn't want warmth now, but didn't even need stored grain for winter...

They didn't even ask the merchants for procurement.

They didn't even plan to buy thick winter clothes, didn't mention a thing, were they planning to survive in snow with thin clothes?

What kind of great spirit is this? What sort of indomitable quality?

Ning Zheng's answer is:

Probably a spirit of masochism.

Anyway, he was not moved, he was used to it.

But that Zhang Huaping seemed inexplicably moved just then.

Occasionally getting an opportunity worth a hundred or two magic coins is very normal though.

But war, what's up with that?

Ning Zheng wasn't vocal about his confusion, wary of appearing ignorant.

Right now, everyone thinks our manor is strong, like one of the dominant powers nearby.

But Ning Zheng knew his own weaknesses.

A mere paper tiger!

He feels he can't go robbing like a bandit, as that would show his lack of confidence.

To abstain from killing and robbing, to be a good person, would that lead to suspicion instead?

But wouldn't this make it seem like I lack confidence if I don't act like a bandit?

Not killing and robbing, being a good person, would instead raise suspicions.

He was troubled and remained silent.

Good people should not be targeted?

He refocused his gaze on Sword Casting Manor, waiting for instructions.

"No, absolutely not."

"What happened to just waiting it out?"

This was the thought lingering silently in Ning Zheng's mind.

"Am I supposed to go out there myself, become a bandit, commit theft and murder, muddle through, and create prestige?"

But is that even possible?

Even someone like Zhang Huaping seems inexplicably moved.

Having reached Five-Body Realm Great Perfection, she's merely a tributor for a shop, out hunting Demon Beasts for materials supply.

But I must take responsibility for the benefits gained.
