First-Year Internship—And You Went to Site 749 to Contain Monsters?!

The Jade Tree Bodhi, with branches supporting the Three Realms and a trunk standing between heaven and earth, spread open.

It showered Lu Ding with green radiance.

The combination of the two gave him the warm, cozy feeling of soaking in a hot spring out of nowhere.

His whole body felt like it had endless ox-like strength.

He just charged upward!!!!

Once the medicinal effects were nearly exhausted,

He took a few more bites of the [Pure Treasure Dream-Sending Fish].

This thing wasn’t big either, with barely any meat, so a few bites finished it off.

The eating made Lu Ding feel drowsy.He seemed to see an endless sorghum field stretching into the distance.

He somehow pulled out a sickle from somewhere, and that guy went straight to reaping.

Unbelievable.

So fierce he didn’t seem human.

In that sorghum field, an old farmer riding a green ox, wearing a straw hat, was so shocked by Lu Ding’s display that he lifted his hat brim.

Watching Lu Ding zip through the sorghum field like autumn leaves swept by the wind, leaving nothing behind wherever he passed,

The old farmer smiled silently.

The green ox stomped its hooves in astonishment.

As if.

”He’s doing all my work, all my work!!!!”

The harvested golden sorghum transformed into a golden whirlwind, swirling around Lu Ding as he unconsciously climbed the path of Spirit Refinement.

Until the medicinal effects of the [Pure Treasure Dream-Sending Fish] were completely depleted.

Only then did Lu Ding wake up from his drowsy state.

Before he knew it, his cultivation had gone from Spirit Refinement Fifth Layer to over Sixth Layer.

Finally, he consumed the Coiled Dragon Fruit he had been most looking forward to.

After eating it,

Lu Ding didn’t feel anything at first.

But the Sin Dragon inside him,

Let out a roar!!!!

It started growing rapidly!!

It couldn’t even help but leak its aura uncontrollably, manifesting its true form, chaotic pupils swirling in its eyes, coiling its body in the sky.

It boosted Lu Ding and charged upward!!!

It surged all the way through Spirit Refinement Seventh Layer, reaching Spirit Refinement Eighth Layer, before barely stopping.

Lu Ding was completely dumbfounded.

How come he didn’t feel any of the medicinal effects?

Sure, his cultivation had increased.

But he had no sense of participation.

As the medicinal effects of the rare natural treasures wore off,

Lu Ding was pulled back to reality.

Sitting in the secluded cultivation chamber,

He smacked his lips.

”No taste at all.........”

The effect was powerful, but there was no taste.

Ridiculous.

It was like Zhu Bajie eating the ginseng fruit.

But at least Lu Ding didn’t have a Brother Monkey to go pick him a couple more.

He had heard Elder Shui and Secretary Qiu say before,

That there was only one fruit on the tree.

Oh wait, no!!!!

Lu Ding thought for a moment; he remembered Secretary Qiu and Elder Shui saying this tree was a bit hard to keep alive... and the fruit shared the nutrients.

If he could exchange for this tree, plant it in the herb garden, and have Feifan take care of it,

Would that possibly.........

Though it would probably require a lot of contribution points.

But that didn’t matter.

The Empress of Baoji Kingdom would contribute.

As long as he could catch her and bring her back to Great Han.

Even if he was still short, it wouldn’t be by too much.

He might even be able to exchange it directly.

Thinking of this, Lu Ding quickly pulled out his phone and sent a message to Gongyang Qingrou.

[Senior Gongyang, what are you doing?]

Meanwhile, on the other side, Gongyang Qingrou was in the room Lu Ding had arranged for her, holding her phone while watching a livestream, researching how to do makeup, and placing orders.

Even though she was naturally beautiful,

And her cultivation was sufficient,

But things like makeup could compensate for flaws on the downside and add perfection on the upside—either way, they were always useful.

Not to mention, she could also learn about outfits and hairstyles.

The convenience brought by internet development had given Gongyang Qingrou a real taste of it.

She was basically holding her phone, so happy she forgot about everything else.

It was no exaggeration to say,

During this time, while Lu Ding was out running around and breaking through realms, Gongyang Qingrou was in her room, never unplugging her charger.

Her online shopping never stopped either.

Packages had piled up like a small mountain in her room.

As for where the money came from?

She had helped Lu Ding so much; would he shortchange her financially?

Not to say hundreds of millions, that’s a bit much.

But a few million was easily arranged for her to spend freely.

It wasn’t until Lu Ding sent her this message

That Gongyang Qingrou reluctantly withdrew from this state of intense surfing and shopping.

Honestly,

Who invented things like phones and the internet?

They were absolutely magical.

Especially when money wasn’t an issue.

Even for Gongyang Qingrou, a Deification Ninth Level cultivator, it was hard to resist the temptation of these things.

She replied back.

[I’m watching short videos, what’s up?]

[Lu Ding: I plan to go to Baoji Kingdom later to capture the Empress of Baoji. Does Senior Gongyang have any interest in coming along?]

Gongyang Qingrou thought for a moment.

[Sure, Lu Ding. Could you help me get a temporary residence permit here?]

Gongyang Qingrou felt that Great Han was incredibly comfortable; what kind of life had she lived before?

Moreover, her current cultivation had basically reached the peak level in the Second Circle.

What remained was to continuously enrich her foundation, and when the time was right, then talk about whether to go to the First Circle.

There was still a long road ahead,

A long time to get through.

The conflict between Lu Ding and Ji Continent was still unresolved, and who knew how long it would take to come to an end.

So, having some free time in the future to come to Great Han for a vacation wouldn’t be bad.

Although for a Deification Ninth Level cultivator like Gongyang Qingrou, she could come whenever she wanted and stay wherever she wanted, and she didn’t really need a residence permit,

Living openly and legally, with connections and within the rules, was definitely more comfortable than sneaking around and living alone.

She wasn’t one of those old fogeys who liked to live in seclusion, hiding a big presence in the city and a small one in the wild.

[Lu Ding: Sure, I’ll help you get one then, and get you a place, a villa!!!]

[Gongyang Qingrou: No need for a villa. I heard from Assistant Investigator Yan that you still have empty rooms over there, all large flats with floor-to-ceiling windows. Can I get one? I can pay rent. Preferably the top floor.]

The top floor was where Lu Ding lived.

Though he only occupied one suite.

[Lu Ding: You want to be my neighbor? Sure, then when the western region has a powerhouse like you stationed there, if anything comes up, I’ll trouble Senior Gongyang to keep an eye on things. As for rent, don’t be so formal.]

Forget everything else,

Just based on Gongyang Qingrou’s cultivation level and her attitude toward 749,

Forget about rent—he would even pay her to stay here, and Lu Ding would be happy to.

A free gold token enforcer.

Better safe than sorry; what if something happened in the western region? Would she just sit by and watch?

Hearing that she could even be neighbors with Lu Ding,

Gongyang Qingrou was even happier.

After all, she didn’t know anyone else here, only Lu Ding.

Others, intimidated by her cultivation, kept their distance, and she was used to it.

Enjoying loneliness didn’t mean she liked being lonely.

[Gongyang Qingrou: Okay, should I wait for you downstairs?]

[Lu Ding: See you downstairs in a bit.]

Switching screens on her phone and playing music through her new smart speaker, Gongyang Qingrou began to put her studies into practice, coordinating outfits.

Bringing out a modern vibe.
