Perhaps it was Qin Ruqing’s sparkling eyes that were too captivating, or maybe the benefits she mentioned were too enticing.

In any case, Tang Zifeng still took out the spirit tool he had kept hidden for a long time from his storage ring.

Qi Rong and Lu Wei also leaned in curiously, their bodies leaning forward on the table.

The spirit tool Tang Zifeng took out looked square and was made of a transparent jade-like material, overall appearing red.

“What is this, a red cube?” Qi Rong poked the spirit tool, puzzled.

“Is this jade?” Lu Wei was evidently more interested in the material.

“Why is it red?” Qin Ruqing crossed her arms, focusing on the color.

She thought this vibrant color didn’t quite match Tang Zifeng’s usually reserved and introverted style.

Shouldn’t he be deep blue or light purple?

Tang Zifeng didn’t quite understand the Qin family’s thought process.

Why were they so focused on the shape and color? Shouldn’t they be more concerned with its function?

He picked up the red jade cube, and with his slender fingers fiddling with it, the red cube surprisingly split into four smaller cubes.

Each small cube had a hemispherical indentation on top.

Hmm…

Qin Ruqing, upon seeing these indentations, suddenly recalled the two types of spirit tools Tang Zifeng had created when he sought cooperation with the Qin family before, the feeding bracelet and the upgraded version of the feeding bracelet.

The bizarre and novel usage and the straightforward names had left a long-lasting impression on her.

Now, looking at these hemispherical indentations, perfectly sized to fit a pill, Qin Ruqing had a bad feeling and asked, “Tang Zifeng, what’s the name of this spirit tool?”

‘Please, don’t call it another ‘feeding’ tool.’

Tang Zifeng looked up, locking eyes with Qin Ruqing for three seconds, and answered, “It’s called the feeding cube.”

Qin Ruqing: “…”

Qin Qirong: “…”

Qin Luwei: “…”

Roar, so if it’s bracelet-shaped, it’s called a feeding bracelet, and if it’s cube-shaped, it’s called a feeding cube, right?

Qin Ruqing asked, “If you put a certain pill inside, does it enhance or amplify the pill’s effect?”

Tang Zifeng replied, “Yes.”

Oh my heavens.

Qin Ruqing was silent for a moment, then suddenly placed her hand on Tang Zifeng’s shoulder and said very seriously, “Tang Zifeng, let me tell you, to become a revered master in artifact creation, learning to market your inventions is the first step. A unique and memorable name helps you gain fame… uh, I mean, helps with spreading your reputation! You must understand, having a poor naming sense is a problem that needs fixing!”

Tang Zifeng seemed taken aback by this impassioned speech.

He was silent for a moment before asking, “Then what should I name it?”

Qin Ruqing sat back down, took the feeding cube, disassembled and reassembled it, and after playing with it for a while, she inexplicably felt a sense of joy similar to playing with a Rubik’s Cube.

To be honest, the tactile feeling of the cube was quite good…

Ahem. “So, what are the primary features and functions of this feeding cube?”

Tang Zifeng’s lips moved, and seeing his mouth shape, Qin Ruqing suddenly raised her eyebrows high. “Wait, don’t tell me it’s used for storing Vitality Pills?”

Tang Zifeng replied, “Yes.”

Qin Ruqing: “?”

“It is indeed used for storing Vitality Pills. By placing Vitality Pills in the four disassembled cubes and positioning them at the four corners of your body during meditation, it can create a unique barrier. Within this barrier, you can assist with cultivation, help with concentration and calmness, and accelerate the cultivation process, essentially creating the effect of a small secret realm.”

After a brief silence, Qin Ruqing said, “Tang Zifeng.”

“Hmm?”

“Do you have a particular preference for creating spirit tools that complement pill use?”

Under Tang Zifeng’s puzzled gaze, Qin Ruqing continued, “Let me tell you, doing this makes me think you have a high compatibility with our Qin family’s industry. I might be tempted not to help you return to your family and instead secretly manipulate things so that you’re left with no choice but to join our Qin family as a guest elder.”

Tang Zifeng seemed to smile faintly, his expression barely noticeable, as the corners of his mouth curved up for just a second.

He said, “I know you wouldn’t do that.”

Qin Ruqing shrugged, “Alright, it seems you trust my integrity.”

Qirong, who was resting her chin on her hand, asked, “So, is this spirit tool still going to be called a feeding cube?”

Lu Wei added, “Brother Tang, do you really want to stick with this name? We feel that calling it a feeding cube doesn’t really convey the function of the spirit tool.” Lu Wei’s gentle nature was evident in her comment.

Tang Zifeng replied, “I just casually came up with the name. If you have a better one, we can certainly use it.”

Qin Ruqing thought for three seconds, then slapped the table and said, “Let’s call it the Cultivation Accelerator! Simple and straightforward, easy to understand, right?”

Qin Ruqing felt this name would resonate perfectly with the cultivators of Xiling.

The three of them exchanged glances and said, “We agree!”

The Yang family was quite surprised to receive a request for a meeting from Qin Ruqing, who wanted to discuss a potential collaboration.

Yang Laosan, also known as Yang Wenxu, felt flattered and asked their family Grand elder, “It’s been so long without any news, I thought the collaboration was off. But now she’s coming to us on her own. What’s going on?”

The Grand elder seemed pleased as well. Although they had been busy with the matters of the Immortal Grade Bureau recently, they had no intention of letting go of the opportunity that the Qin family represented.

They had been considering visiting again to bring some gifts, but now it seemed that the young lady had made up her mind.

The Grand elder let out a long breath and said, “When you go, be respectful and polite. Be willing to make some concessions on the benefits, and make sure the second collaboration goes smoothly.”

Yang Wenxu felt a heavy sense of responsibility, straightened his back, and replied loudly, “Yes!”

They arranged to meet at a teahouse.

Qin Ruqing, having enjoyed her last visit to the Fifth Teahouse, decided to hold the meeting there.

The Fifth Teahouse was known for its wealth and had temperature control spirit tools (thermoses and air conditioners) installed in every private room.

At the start of the meeting, they didn’t get straight to the point but engaged in casual conversation. “Brother Yang, why are there so many teahouses in Xiling City?”

Qin Ruqing asked, thinking the abundance of teahouses reminded her of the convenience stores in a certain magical city.

The scholarly-looking man wiped the sweat from his forehead with a cloth and said, “Because it’s hot.”

“Pfft~” Qin Ruqing couldn’t help but laugh at his straightforward and honest answer.

After a few more casual remarks without addressing the main topic, Yang Wenxu still didn’t seem anxious.

This was one of the reasons why people found dealing with the Yang family comfortable.

Their approach made people feel no pressure.

If you wanted to sit, that was fine.

They would sit with you and drink three pots of tea, staying until dark if needed.
