Chapter 467: Chapter 466: Other Uses of the Divine Transformation Pill

「The next day」

"The event is starting today. Stop sleeping and get up," Su Qi called out.

Jiang Zuo wasn’t actually asleep. Late last night, he realized he was about to level up—not from Tier 2.5 to 2.6, but straight from 2.5 to 2.7.

In fact, he’d had this feeling ever since sealing the Master of Curses.

He had simply suppressed it, but the feeling was much more obvious now.

Under pressure from Su Qi last night, his suppression had nearly slipped.

That was why he’d woken up early to suppress his Cultivation. He should be able to hold on for a little while longer.

Thankfully, this wasn’t a major breakthrough for Crossing the Tribulation; otherwise, it would have easily triggered a Celestial Tribulation.

But speaking of Cultivation, Su Qi was the truly terrifying one. It seemed she was also about to level up, and unlike him, she hadn’t been cultivating at all. It was as if advancement was simply inevitable for her.

’That was truly terrifying.’

If Jiang Zuo hadn’t seen the Seven Emotions and Six Desires Technique before, he might have actually suspected Su Qi was cultivating it.

"Get up," Su Qi said, shaking Jiang Zuo. "If you don’t, I won’t be so nice anymore."

Jiang Zuo said helplessly, "I’m just an ordinary person. I need my rest."

Su Qi said, "You can rest in a few more days. It’s coming soon. When the time comes, you won’t get any even if you beg for it."

It was the end of the month, and her period was due soon.

’As for getting pregnant, that’s impossible.’

Jiang Zuo sat up and looked around. "Isn’t it still early? Why are we getting up now? We’ve already missed the sunrise."

The sun was already up by this point.

Su Qi sat down in front of Jiang Zuo. "Look at your wife. Am I not beautiful?"

Without a moment’s hesitation, Jiang Zuo answered, "Beautiful."

"Liar. I obviously don’t look like my usual self, so what’s so beautiful about me?" Su Qi gave Jiang Zuo a little bite, then got up to get dressed. "Get up. The event starts today. Let’s go join the competition."

Jiang Zuo also got up to dress and asked curiously, "Don’t we need to register for the competition?"

Su Qi nodded. "There’s no need. You just show up. As long as your level is high enough, you’re good. It’s all just for fun, anyway."

Jiang Zuo didn’t get it. ’What’s the point of an event like this?’

Su Qi explained, "There are always some seniors who are bored with nothing to do and have more money than they know what to do with, so they just give away goodies. Besides..."

Su Qi turned to look at Jiang Zuo. "Besides, I wasn’t entirely satisfied with your performance last night. I was going to punish you, but I’m letting it slide since the event is starting today."

Jiang Zuo was exasperated. ’Last night was perfectly normal. A woman’s heart is as deep and unknowable as the ocean.’

’Heaven knows what she’s thinking.’

After getting dressed, Su Qi took out a hairband and sat sweetly in front of Jiang Zuo.

She especially enjoyed this part of their routine; letting Jiang Zuo tie her hair was when she was the most docile all day.

Jiang Zuo, of course, would never refuse. Seeing her sit there so sweetly, holding out the hairband with such anticipation, he couldn’t possibly disappoint her.

"Remember to make it pretty," Su Qi said with a smile.

She would have loved it no matter what style Jiang Zuo chose, but then, who doesn’t want to look beautiful?

Especially when it came from the hands of the person she loved most.

Jiang Zuo didn’t say anything. ’Maybe I should learn some other ways to tie hair,’ he thought.

’The knot I use for the Duoling Dog is secure, but it’s not very beautiful.’

’Women really are troublesome.’

————

After breakfast, Jiang Zuo and Su Qi arrived at the shore of the Sea of Seven Emotions, where a large crowd had already gathered, just as they’d expected.

The area was divided into many different sections, each with its own activity.

But as soon as they arrived, Jiang Zuo and Su Qi were stunned by the sight of the people on the shore.

How to put it... the people were all very ordinary, and their ordinariness was very similar to their own.

Su Qi looked at Jiang Zuo, who could only manage a wry smile. He knew what was going on, of course; he just didn’t understand the organizers’ motive.

"Don’t tell me they all took a Divine Transformation Pill?" Su Qi asked. ℯℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮

Jiang Zuo nodded. "That’s most likely it. Otherwise, you Cultivators are all either beautiful or handsome. Where would so many utterly plain-looking people suddenly come from?"

"But how is that possible?" Su Qi couldn’t wrap her head around it.

The Divine Transformation Pill isn’t supposed to be that common. And this wasn’t just a few dozen or a hundred people; there were thousands of them.

Where could they have possibly gotten so many Divine Transformation Pills?

And it seemed like every single person had taken one.

"Greetings, fellow Cultivators and Fairies! Welcome to the first-ever Sea of Seven Emotions Cultivation Festival!" Just then, a massive Flying Magical Treasure appeared in the sky above the sea.

At the very front of the Magical Treasure, a middle-aged man was shouting excitedly into a microphone.

Jiang Zuo glanced over at him. ’Tier Six Cultivation. He’s probably the highest-level person here.’

’Looks like this festival isn’t very high-profile. Not a single Tier Seven in sight.’

Su Qi asked curiously, "Who’s that guy?"

"The host, I presume," Jiang Zuo replied.

"I mean, what Sect is he from? What does he do? Why is he hosting an event like this?" Su Qi said.

"I’m just an ordinary person. Don’t ask me," Jiang Zuo said, his face expressionless.

Su Qi frowned. "I did some research on the Sea of Seven Emotions recently. This place is supposed to be the Joyful Union Sect’s territory. Oh, the Joyful Union Sect is the one that specializes in Dual Cultivation."

Then, her eyes crinkling in a smile, she looked at Jiang Zuo. "Should we go and learn a few of their secrets?"

"Not interested," Jiang Zuo said bluntly.

’Such a low-class Cultivation method; I have absolutely no need for it.’

’Of course, if Su Qi wanted to practice it, I wouldn’t object.’

Su Qi grinned and linked her arm through Jiang Zuo’s, then her brow furrowed again. "At first, I assumed the Joyful Union Sect was hosting this event, but that host doesn’t seem like he’s from their Sect at all.

But if they’re not from the Joyful Union Sect, why hold the event at the Sea of Seven Emotions?

There are so many other great locations, yet they specifically chose one that’s popular with couples.

Something feels off."

Jiang Zuo was surprised. ’Su Qi is actually thinking this much about it?’

’What’s so strange about a Sect using the Sea of Seven Emotions to hold an event?’

Then, Jiang Zuo recalled the color of the sea. ’Maybe they really do have some ulterior motive.’

Jiang Zuo stared at the host for a moment. The Innate Two Qi circulated in his eyes, and then he saw the truth.

’A Ghost Cultivator. It’s been a long time since I’ve seen one of those.’

Now Jiang Zuo was certain: they definitely had an ulterior motive.

’As for what it is exactly, that’s hard to say.’

’In any case, there’s no immediate danger, so I won’t ruin Su Qi’s fun.’

"I’m sure you’ve all noticed by now," the host said again. "We were a little surprised ourselves, but after making some inquiries, we found out that a certain fellow Cultivator has graciously helped us kick off the Sea of Seven Emotions Matchmaking Fair!

With the help of the Divine Transformation Pill, a plain appearance cannot hide a fascinating soul! Once you find the fascinating soul that is meant for you, you will never be able to forget them!

May all you fellow Cultivators find the partner of your dreams!"

Hearing this, Jiang Zuo finally understood. So, the Divine Transformation Pills were for matchmaking.

He couldn’t help but look over at Su Qi.

At that same moment, Jiang Zuo saw that Su Qi was also looking at him.

The two of them exchanged a smile. Su Qi hugged Jiang Zuo’s arm tightly. It didn’t matter what happened with anyone else; they had already found their perfect match in each other.

That was an undeniable fact.

With or without the Divine Transformation Pill, it made no difference to them.

"And with that, the Sea of Seven Emotions Cultivation Festival officially begins! Bountiful rewards await you all!"
