Chapter 952: Chapter 952

At this thought, Nanli suddenly felt weak in her hands and legs, almost unable to stand firm. She might still be able to handle the current busyness, but as her belly grew larger, she would find it increasingly inconvenient to refine pills. Once the three little ones were born, she would have even less time to spare.

Seeing her face turn pale, Shandu panicked, "Nanli, what’s wrong?! You have to hold on! Without your pills, the little one will starve to death!"

It wasn’t that he didn’t care about Nanli, but little babe was just too adorable! After it had eaten its fill, it carefully jumped back into Nanli’s arms, yawned, and fell asleep with its little hands tucked in. It was a fluffy bundle that had struck a chord in Shandu’s heart.

Nanli placed little babe back into the Spirit Pet Bag and said, "Yes, it hasn’t eaten enough yet, and I’ll have to work myself to death..."

Shandu also became anxious, "What should we do?"

Refining pills might not be a big deal for Nanli, but the daily quantity needed was substantial, which would take up a considerable amount of time. By the end of the day, all her time would be spent on it.

Nanli glanced at Siheng, whose forehead was beaded with sweat, some of which was dripping down, indicating that he was in a tricky situation. She didn’t want to leave, so she stepped out of the house.

Many people were waiting outside for news. When Nanli came out, they thought everything inside was settled. However, she was the first to say, "Siheng is not done yet. I have an extremely important matter that requires someone to run an errand for me."

The ten good-natured individuals looked at each other. It wasn’t that they wanted to shirk their duties, but their cultivation was recovering slowly. Nanli’s matter was surely significant, and they didn’t dare to take it lightly.

Chu Yang stepped forward and said, "Sixth sister, tell me!"

Yun Yubai’s lips moved, but he ultimately said nothing. Although he missed the wine from Mu Nation’s capital, he knew he wasn’t suitable to leave Jialan Celestial Mountain or be out of everyone’s sight at the moment.

However, Nanli noticed and immediately listed a checklist and several Transfer Talismans, handing them to Chu Yang, "Fourth brother, take as much as you can, especially spirit stones, bring several bags, and try to be back before noon." She also specifically instructed, "On the way, bring Master Yun a few jars of wine."

Chu Yang readily agreed, "Alright."

Yun Yubai was quite excited, his eyes brightening as he said, "Bring more! At least seven or eight jars!"

Shandu, who was behind, quickly chimed in, "Chu Yang, bring a few chickens for me! White-cut chicken, Beggar’s Chicken, Soy Sauce Chicken... Never mind, any kind of chicken will do!" As he spoke, his mouth watered.

"I’ve got it covered," Chu Yang confidently believed his speed would be more than sufficient. He wasted no time and immediately took off on his sword. Among this group, Bai Hao was missing, so she sent Shan Yang to fetch him.

Bai Hao walked slowly, groaning all the way, "Ouch, my old bones... I don’t know when these broken ribs will heal."

Nanli looked at him expressionlessly. Bai Hao, seeing her expression, began to complain, "Nanli, although your former status was extremely powerful, you are technically younger than me now. If you need something from me, you should at least come to me personally. Why do you have to call an old, injured guy like me over?"

"Come on, the pills I refined for you have a miraculous effect. Your ribs should be about seventy to eighty percent healed by now," Nanli said, "The fact that you can speak without panting shows that you are still strong despite your age."

Bai Hao didn’t expect her to be so precise in her assessment. His face immediately turned awkward, and he said, "Well, I still need to take it easy, and it’s the middle of the night!"

"There’s no other way. I have to stay here, so I have to trouble you to make this trip," Nanli said.

Bai Hao raised his eyebrows, his beard almost standing on end, "Let me tell you, if I’m going to do something for you, the price won’t be low."

He needed to see what Nanli wanted him to do before he could set his price. Ideally, it would be something difficult, so he could ask for something like a Spirit Mine. Hehe, then the Bai family would be worry-free for a thousand years.

Nanli said, "I just want to ask you if you have Lord Shi’s spirit communication spell. This is not a big deal, right? Don’t think about taking advantage of me."

Bai Hao’s face froze for a moment, but he quickly recovered and said, "Ah, so you want to find that little girl from the Shi family. Let me do it for you to show my respect."

The ten good-natured individuals had never seen Bai Hao before. But it made sense. The Shi family’s pill-refining skills were not bad, and they held a significant position in the Immortal World. Bai Hao’s approach was justified.

However, Nanli immediately saw the problem and smiled, "Senior Bai, actually, you don’t know, do you?"

The ten good-natured individuals widened their eyes and looked at Bai Hao.

"Senior Bai, really?" they asked in unison.

"You are the eldest and most powerful cultivator in the Bai family. How could you not know Lord Shi’s spirit communication spell?"

"If Lord Shi doesn’t know, at least other members of the Shi family should know, right?"

They all spoke at once.

Bai Hao’s head ached from listening to them and quickly told them to be quiet. He was quite annoyed, "What are you talking about? I’ve always been out of the loop. I was either sleeping or in closed-door cultivation before. I don’t know anything strange. Don’t you guys also not know?!"

Shan Yang, however, said, "No, I actually do know."

Bai Hao’s mouth twitched, "That girl from the Shi family has a big temper and won’t easily give her spirit communication spell to others. How do you know?"

"Senior Bai, have you forgotten? Previously, Lord Shi saved a few of us. To facilitate contact, Lord Shi gave us her spirit communication spell," Shan Yang explained.

Nanli remembered this and said, "Great, Shan Yang, contact her right away."

"Ah? Now?" Shan Yang looked at the sky. There was still a long time before dawn.

"Yes, right now!" she was very anxious!

Seeing her expression, Shan Yang became nervous and quickly took out the Telestone, silently reciting the spirit communication spell. The Telestone flashed as it waited for the spirit communication. If the other party refused to connect the voice message, the light would dim.

Probably because Shi Miaomiao was sleeping, she cut off the voice message several times in a row. After five attempts, it finally got through. Then came Shi Miaomiao’s extremely irritable voice: "Who is it?! Disturbing someone’s sleep is like killing their parents, don’t you know?!"

Shan Yang was so scared that his hand trembled, almost throwing the Telestone away. Bai Hao raised his eyebrows and made a face, clearly implying, see, this girl has quite a temper. With such an irritable person on the other end, no one dared to speak and risk being scolded.

Nanli, however, was not afraid and said, "Lord Shi, I’m sorry to disturb you in the middle of the night. But I have a big business deal to discuss with you, and it’s extremely urgent!"

The Telestone on the other side fell silent. But the light remained bright. Shi Miaomiao hadn’t hung up.

"Lord Shi?" Nanli thought, did she fall asleep again?

"Here, here, here!" Shi Miaomiao’s voice was gentle and sweet, with no trace of her previous irritability, "Nanli, I’ve already changed my clothes. Where are you? I’ll come right over."

She didn’t care how Nanli knew her spirit communication spell at the moment. All she knew was that this was a big business deal!
