Chapter 60: So Cute~
***
At this moment, Beast Taming Peak was truly bustling with activity.
Xiao Bai stepped on her own fluffy six tails, crouching on a massive bluestone, holding a thin tree branch in her paws. With a stern expression, she was lecturing a gray fox in front of her that was several times larger than herself:
“Stand straight! Lift your head! Puff out your chest! As a fox with ambition, how can you spend all day lazily sprawled out?”
The gray fox drooped its ears pitifully, its massive body curled into a ball, its voice carrying a heavy nasal tone:
“Sister Fox, don’t you also like to sleep all day? Last time I saw you sleep for an entire afternoon…”
“? You dare talk back?”
Xiao Bai angrily whacked its head with the tree branch.
“What’s my cultivation level? What’s your cultivation level? Can they be the same?”
She put on an expression of disappointment over failed expectations, her six tails behind her swaying gently as if proving her words true.
“I’m telling you, from now on you must cultivate properly and no slacking off!”
Earlier, while wandering around Beast Taming Peak, she had accidentally discovered that there was actually a small branch of the fox clan here. Unfortunately, the foxes in this clan were all extremely weak individually and were often bullied by other spirit beast groups.
Having nothing else to do, Xiao Bai immediately decided to stay and “guide” them. After all, since coming to Qinglan Sect, aside from occasionally picking up and dropping off Lin Muyu for classes, she had far too much free time.
Back in the day, she was the grand priestess of the fox clan, second only to one fox and above ten thousand foxes, managing all the major and minor affairs of the entire fox clan. Now that she was idle, she felt restless all over.
The gray fox in front of her was the most talented one in the clan, but its personality was too lazy, always thinking about freeloading.
“Also.”
Xiao Bai poked the gray fox’s nose with the tree branch, her tone becoming serious.
“Remember, if someone named Lin Muyu comes here to select a spirit beast in the future, you must be proactive and clever, understand?”
The gray fox shrank its neck and nodded pitifully:
“I understand, Sister Fox.”
Xiao Bai contentedly swished her tail, gracefully jumping onto a nearby tree branch. She curled up to bask in the sun, happily calculating in her heart.
Once I train this big dummy and give it to Lin Muyu, she’ll have a new mount when she goes out, and won’t have to use me as a mount all the time anymore.
After all, she was a grand cultivator of the fox clan, how could she be ridden around by humans every day?
……
“Damn it, which part went wrong?”
Ye Fan returned to Qinglan Sect covered in dust, his face full of unwillingness.
“It should be that person who intervened…”
Elder Feng’s grave voice appeared in Ye Fan’s mind.
“Is such a trivial matter worth her intervention?”
Ye Fan gritted his teeth, his face full of resentment.
This was a case of trying to steal a chicken but losing the rice instead. He didn’t get the spirit weapon, and even used up one of his trump card talismans.
That talisman was equivalent to a life-saving item that he had obtained at great cost, yet now he had used it so easily.
“You forgot, she has a disciple here.”
Elder Feng’s words enlightened Ye Fan.
He had completely forgotten that Lin Muyu was also a new disciple who would also enter that place.
“Damn it, that woman always ruins my plans. When I grow stronger, I’ll definitely…”
As he spoke, Ye Fan immediately began fantasizing about that scenario in his mind, a perverted expression appearing on his face.
After all, conquering such aloof fairy-like women had always been his favorite.
“Stop fantasizing. Since this plan failed, let’s focus on Su Wanqing again.”
Elder Feng’s words interrupted Ye Fan’s fantasy, and Ye Fan quickly put away his perverted expression and became serious.
“Right, let’s take down Su Wanqing first, but with that woman around, it won’t be easy.”
“Don’t forget, didn’t you plant someone by her side?”
Elder Feng laughed sinisterly.
“How did I forget about her again?”
Ye Fan had a sudden realization. He always unconsciously overlooked Lin Muyu, as if this person had already been dealt with by him.
Lin Muyu was clearly also a very beautiful young girl, but unfortunately her constitution made him feel no desire whatsoever.
A conspiracy against Su Wanqing quietly began brewing in his heart…
However, before this conspiracy could fully take shape, Ye Fan was thrown by his master to Reflection Cliff to face the wall for 7 days.
“How dare you make deals with a demoness?”
“Go to Reflection Cliff and face the wall for 7 days!”
Facing his master’s demand, although Ye Fan held back his anger, he dared not disobey.
“This disciple obeys.”
Thus, a conspiracy simply changed locations to continue brewing…
……
“Xiaotao, Xiaomu, what abilities do you have?”
In a small room on Jade Lotus Peak, Lin Muyu placed these two spirit weapons on the table, propping her face with her hands as she asked.
“Master~ I can serve as your storage ring, and the internal space is quite large too.”
Xiaotao spoke first, the bead flashing with spiritual light as it brought Lin Muyu into a fantastical space.
Here, a pink-haired girl had been waiting for some time and enthusiastically embraced her.
Being held by the pink-haired girl, Lin Muyu asked with a puzzled expression:
“Your storage ring can also store living beings?”
The pink-haired girl rubbed Lin Muyu’s hair with her little face and said proudly:
“Yes! But the internal space is very fragile, so enemies can’t be imprisoned.”
Lin Muyu nodded somewhat excitedly. A storage space that could hold living beings would be extremely useful.
Moreover, storage rings in this world were actually precious items that only very few people possessed.
After all, grand cultivators capable of opening space to create storage rings rarely spent their time making storage rings.
Even Su Wanqing’s spatial ring didn’t have much space, it would be full after storing a few clothes, pills, and a dozen spirit stones.
She had to keep her sword hanging at her waist all the time.
“What other abilities do you have?”
Lin Muyu asked excitedly.
She had witnessed the illusion that trapped over a thousand people and very much wanted to possess this ability.
“Sorry, Master, you’re currently too weak and can only use this ability. Also, that illusion wasn’t something I actively cast.”
“It was that bad woman who triggered my power to cast it, but I don’t know how to use it myself.”
Xiaotao’s tone carried some apology.
“It’s okay, Xiaotao, it’s because I’m too weak…”
Lin Muyu sighed and patted Xiaotao’s back, thinking that ultimately it was still her insufficient strength, she needed to cultivate properly.
However, obtaining a super-large storage ring that could hold living beings was already very good.
Before Lin Muyu could finish speaking, a petite green-haired figure suddenly appeared in the space, rushing between the two and separating them while shouting:
“Let go of Sister Bead!!”
“Xiaomu?”
Looking at the girl before her, Lin Muyu was somewhat surprised.
She had emerald-like jade-green hair that was smooth and lustrous.
Her face was round and cute, like a freshly ripened peach, with a faint blush; on that delicate face were embedded a pair of large, round eyes.
Her petite body wore an exquisite light green leaf dress, and she was currently barefoot with cute little feet, making her look like a little princess who had walked out of a fairy tale world.
“…”
How is this image completely different from the previous wooden stick?!
So cute~
