    Chapter 233: Excellent Diet and Routine

    Shen Qinqin exclaimed, "Oh my god! Is the big beauty in the mirror really me? This face, this waist, this skin! It's absolutely perfect! Damn Bai Yongxun, he almost made me miss this chance to become beautiful—I can't let him off!"

    Zhou Bing said happily, "I didn't just take a bath; I was favored by the goddess Nuwa herself!"

    "Thank you, Mom and Dad! Thank you, Xuehe!" Zhang Jinmei grinned at herself in the mirror, but she also wondered if she'd gotten up too early—would soaking longer have yielded even better results?

    Dong Dongmei was blown away by her reflection, "Oh my god!"

    After the marrow cleansing, her face and body looked brand new, no longer showing the fatigue from work. Even the C-section scar from years ago was gone. Her skin became soft and smooth, like she was back in her twenties.

    The guys in the men's bathroom were just as blown away as the women. They were all stunned by the changes in their bodies. Chen Daojiang was even more profoundly affected; he felt his energy channels had opened up, and he could vaguely sense the edge of Foundation Establishment.

    The members got dressed and headed to the front desk to retrieve their belongings stored in the lockers.

    Qian Nanqing asked, "Manager Ji, how often do we need to do the marrow cleansing? Can we just pay to do it?"

    Everyone else looked at Ji Fu too, wanting to know the answer, as they all felt amazing after the marrow cleansing.

    Chen Daojiang also wanted to know Ji Fu's response. From what he knew, ordinary people didn't need marrow cleansing. For regular folks to get this once was already a huge stroke of luck—a lot of cultivators never get this kind of marrow cleansing in their whole lives.

    Ji Fu said, "One round of marrow cleansing is enough for you. It was a grand opening promo, and there's no paid option for it. It might not come back."

    Dong Dongmei asked, "Will we go back to how we were before the bath? Manager Ji, how long will this last from the marrow cleansing?"

    That was what everyone was wondering. If they went back to normal tomorrow, the fun wouldn't last long.

    Ji Fu replied, "You will go back. Right now, your bodies have been cleaned of all the junk. If you eat too much junk food and breathe bad air, you'll eventually go back to how you were before. However, how long it lasts depends on your diet and lifestyle—some last months, others years, or even over ten years. You never know."

    As her words landed, the crowd got a little restless. Everyone loved their perfect bodies, and hearing they couldn't keep them forever was a letdown. But knowing some could last over ten years made it worth it—but how do you keep it that long?

    Zhou Bing said, "Manager Ji, if we want to maintain it for over a decade, what should we do? Give us some pointers." She was a celebrity, so she really cared about her looks.

    The others agreed Zhou Bing had asked a good question. "Yes, Manager Ji, tell us how to take care of ourselves."

    Humans should know more about this stuff than us monster cultivators, Ji Fu thought with a smile. "It all comes down to two things: diet and lifestyle. A good, consistent diet and lifestyle are key to keeping it up."

    "I'm not trying to sell anything, but for food, I'd start with Nanhe Village's produce. Because of the unique soil and water there, the veggies are way healthier and more nutritious than regular ones. For where you live, fresh air is best."

    Zhou Bing looked at Ji Fu, her eyes sparkling with hope. "Is the air at Jinxiu Yayuan and Chunjiang Garden okay?" She owned properties in both places—Jinxiu Yayuan was where she currently lived, and Chunjiang Garden was for future use.

    Ji Fu nodded. "Within one kilometer of Nanhe Village, it qualifies." One kilometer of Nanhe meant the area within a kilometer of Nanhe Village. Previously, the area around Nanhe Village was forest and wasteland, but later residential zones were built and named Nanhe One Kilometer. Jinxiu Yayuan, Yunjin Taoyuan, and the under-construction Chunjiang Garden and Xiaofeng Fuli were all within Nanhe One Kilometer.

    Hearing this, Zhou Bing beamed. She lived within Nanhe One Kilometer, so the air was up to standard, and her diet was too. However, due to her work nature, she often had to go out for jobs, which annoyed her a bit, but without working, she couldn't maintain her good life.

    You can't have your cake and eat it too. She chose to take Xuehe Gourmet with her to work, at least not letting her diet slip.

    One member asked, "How do we know if the air is suitable?"

    Ji Fu smiled slightly and continued, "The general store on the first floor of the mall sells spirit detectors in two styles: bracelets and watches. The richer the spiritual energy in the air, the whiter the light emitted by the device, indicating better air quality. If you need one, you can buy it to check whether your current living environment has favorable spiritual energy."

    "Okay, thank you, Manager Ji, for letting us know."

    After returning to the mall by boat, they headed straight to the general store on the first floor to buy spirit detectors. Some members went home and found that the air in their homes wasn't enough to make the device glow—for instance, Shen Qinqin considered buying a house within Nanhe One Kilometer, while Dong Dongmei thought about relocating her office environment... These are matters for the future and won't be elaborated on here.

    Chen Daojiang bought ten spirit-detecting watches in one go and then called his junior brother, Huang Gengzhang.

    "Junior brother, are you free? I want to ask you something."

    "Senior brother, go ahead."

    "Is Xuehe Academy still recruiting teachers?"

    "Senior brother, you want to apply? I'm not sure if they're still hiring. Let me ask the dean first and get back to you."

    Five minutes later, Huang Gengzhang called back.

    "Senior brother, they're still hiring. The dean is at the mall. Just tell the front desk you're applying to be a teacher, and they'll take you to the dean."

    "Okay, thanks, junior brother."

    The mall's front desk led Chen Daojiang to a meeting room. The front desk knocked on the door and said, "Boss, the guest is here."

    "Okay, come in."

    Chen Daojiang entered the meeting room and closed the door behind him.

    "Fellow Daoist Chen, please have a seat."

    "Fellow Daoist Jiang."

    During the conversation, Jiang Yingxue asked Chen Daojiang about his personal views on cultivation and the Dao, his educational philosophy, and his current job. Chen Daojiang answered each question.

    Jiang Yingxue acknowledged his abilities and introduced the work and benefits of being a teacher at Xuehe Academy.

    "The academy was just established, so the teachers' workload is a bit heavy. Can you balance two jobs, Fellow Daoist Chen?"

    "Fellow Daoist Jiang, rest assured. I will resign and then take up the position."

    "How long will it take for you to complete the resignation process, Fellow Daoist Chen?"

    "At most half a month." Chen Daojiang's mental expectation was a week, but he left some leeway for unexpected situations.

    "Alright, welcome to Xuehe Academy, Teacher Chen!"

    "Thank you for giving me this opportunity, Dean Jiang!"

    After leaving Xuehe Mall, Chen Daojiang returned to the capital city with the aim of resigning.
