Chapter 32: Attracted by Reputation

Xiao Qingyang spent the entire night refining the quantity of potions ordered by customers after the first one.

It was because he had used up the initial batch of strength enhancement potions and forgot to update the quantity in the store, allowing customers to continue placing orders.

Fortunately, the initial stock was not large, so Xiao Qingyang was able to quickly produce more potions.

After handing the potions over to the old housekeeper, Xiao Qingyang was exhausted and immediately lay down on the bed, looking at Little Golden Dragon sitting next to him. He smiled and extended his arms towards the chubby little dragon, saying, "Come here, let's sleep together."

Long Jingze:...

The golden ears of the Little Golden Dragon visibly turned red at a rapid pace, standing out even more against its golden body.

Xiao Qingyang found the red ears of the Little Golden Dragon incredibly cute and couldn't help but reach out and touch them. He smiled and said, "Little dragon, your ears are so red."

The ears were one of the sensitive parts of a beast's form, and being touched by Xiao Qingyang with his warm and soft hands left a gentle sensation on the dragon's ears, making them even redder. Even its entire body started to show a tendency to turn red.

A tingling sensation spread from the ears, flowing all the way to the heart, accompanied by the sound of a pounding heartbeat, so loud that even the dragon could hear it clearly.

"I'm so sleepy. Will you accompany me, Little Dragon?" Xiao Qingyang, who had been busy all night, was already half asleep, unable to keep his eyes open, his voice soft and muffled.

Long Jingze looked at Xiao Qingyang in this state and couldn't bring himself to refuse. Before he knew it, he found himself nestled in Xiao Qingyang's embrace, tightly held by him.

Long Jingze:...

Well, considering how tired and pitiful he looks, Long Jingze decided to compromise and be his temporary pillow.

Holding the warm and soft Little Golden Dragon, Xiao Qingyang had a good sleep and had pleasant dreams, waking up the next morning.

Opening his eyes, he saw an extra warm and cozy little pillow in his arms. Xiao Qingyang's mood improved even further, with a warm smile on his face. He tightened his arms and leaned closer to the Little Golden Dragon's forehead, lightly kissing it, and said with a smile, "Good morning, Little Dragon."

The soft touch on its forehead made Long Jingze momentarily lost in a daze. After regaining his senses, his golden body suddenly turned pink, and he swiftly jumped out of Xiao Qingyang's embrace, as if there was something terrifying chasing after him.

Xiao Qingyang stared blankly as the Little Golden Dragon swiftly dashed away, without even giving him time to react.

But he wasn't worried. After all, there was no danger here.

Having slept well, feeling refreshed and energized, Xiao Qingyang felt like he could continue refining potions for another two days and nights.

According to the original plan, Xiao Qingyang was supposed to refine healing potions. However, since the strength enhancement potions hit the market, he decided to produce more of them first. After all, the selling price of strength enhancement potions was much higher than that of healing potions, and the demand would likely be greater as well.

As expected, whenever he restocked the strength enhancement potions, regardless of the quantity, they would be sold out immediately. Those who missed out would leave messages in the customer service or discussion areas, pleading for more to be stocked.

Unfortunately, Xiao Qingyang was the only one who could refine the strength enhancement potions, and even if he worked tirelessly without eating or sleeping, there was a limit to how many he could produce in a day. Moreover, the butler and Long Jingze wouldn't allow him to keep working non-stop.

Therefore, he could only ask the buyers to wait a little longer.

As the strength enhancement potions were sold and more people experienced improvements in their physique, word-of-mouth began to accumulate. This attracted more and more people to the store. Combined with the fact that the demand for strength enhancement potions exceeded the supply, customers became increasingly frantic. Some even offered high prices to purchase the potions or asked Xiao Qingyang to raise the price directly.

Xiao Qingyang did consider raising the price, but the spirit plants he used were of relatively low grade, resulting in low-level strength enhancement potions. If he increased the price now, wouldn't it be exorbitant once he refined higher-level potions?

Although Xiao Qingyang liked star coins at the moment, he didn't want to obtain a large amount through such means. The value of strength enhancement potions was determined by their actual worth, regardless of how many people needed them. He wouldn't take advantage of the situation to raise the price.

Chapter 33: The Worried Parents

Recently, Xiao Qingyang's focus was mostly on refining strength enhancement potions. The balance in his account had accumulated to a six-figure number, making him a small wealthy person.

Nowadays, the first thing he did every morning was check the balance in his account. A big smile would appear on his face, and he would be in a good mood for the rest of the day.

Although in his previous life, the price he received for selling a weapon was much higher than this amount, he never seemed as happy back then. However, at that time, his parents had prepared all the raw materials and tools, and he had received guidance from them since he was young. It couldn't be considered entirely his own effort.

But now it was different. These star coins were all accumulated by him starting from scratch, without anything to begin with. The feeling of achievement naturally surpassed his previous life.

Of course, he didn't forget his initial hero—the healing potions. He also remembered that Long Jingze still had injuries that needed his treatment.

So, while refining the strength enhancement potions, Xiao Qingyang continued to research higher-level healing potions. Buying spirit plants cost a lot of money, but they were essential. He felt a pang in his heart, but he wouldn't hesitate to spend the money. On the contrary, it motivated him to work harder to earn money.

Long Jingze had already fully adapted to his life as a beast cub. Besides being frequently hugged and kissed by Xiao Qingyang, which made his heart race and his golden body turn pink, everything else was going well.

During his time on the Imperial Capital Star, he shouldered heavy responsibilities as the Crown Prince. Even though he was still a student now, he couldn't abandon his responsibilities.

During his time on Yalan Star, it was probably the most relaxed and carefree period for him. He didn't have to think too much every day, just following Xiao Qingyang to go hiking, basking in the sun, enjoying the scenery, and being able to eat more delicious food and drink healing potions that, although low-level, had good effects.

If his ability core couldn't be restored, living here seemed like a good choice.

...

Imperial Capital Star, Imperial Palace.

"Is there still no news from Ze?" A gentle voice filled with worry sounded, expressing concern.

"Don't worry, we will find him," another low, magnetic voice reassured the person who had spoken before, embracing her gently.

The woman being held had an exquisitely beautiful face. Even with a frown and worry in her eyes, she still exuded a stunning aura that would captivate anyone who saw her.

The man embracing her was exceptionally handsome, with sharp features and deep, three-dimensional facial contours. His presence was imposing and commanding, giving off an aura that made people dare not meet his gaze.

Two equally outstanding men and women embraced each other, creating a scene as if it were the most exquisite painting by God, captivating anyone's gaze and engrossing their attention.

"It has been over a month since I last heard from Ze," Feng Qingwu couldn't stop worrying.

Although her son had always been mature since he could remember, never relying on his parents, he had never gone this long without contacting her. Coupled with the news she had received before, how could she put her mind at ease?

"I will personally go and find our son," Feng Qingwu's frown deepened, and her black eyes grew even more profound as she spoke resolutely.

Upon hearing this, Long Zhengyu immediately objected, "No! I don't agree!"

That kid had thick skin. Even if he gets injured, he wouldn't be in any danger. But he couldn't bear to let his beloved go out and take risks, even though he knew his wife was much stronger than their son.

"He went out this time for experience, to face the dangers that come with it. If he encounters his first hardship and you rush to save him, then when will he grow?" Long Zhengyu attempted to dissuade his wife's decision.

As the Emperor of the Empire, he couldn't casually leave the Imperial Capital Star to avoid being taken advantage of by others. He couldn't accompany his wife to search for their son, leaving him alone in the Imperial Palace? That was out of the question!

At this moment, Long Zhengyu couldn't help but internally complain about his only son: He's already twenty-six years old, an adult, yet when he encounters danger, he can't even take care of himself. He's causing his parents to worry here. When he returns, he must teach him a lesson.

Meanwhile, on Yalan Star, Long Jingze suddenly sneezed loudly. He almost sprayed saliva all over, but fortunately, he reacted quickly, avoiding embarrassment in front of Xiao Qingyang.

Who could be thinking of him at such an inconvenient time? It would be best if he didn't find out; otherwise, he would definitely make that person realize that sneezing could be harmful.
