Harness Cultivator

Chapter 40 - Everything Is Mine

After carrying Lee Tao for some time, Tang Lingling finally exited the cave.

What greeted her immediately was a lush greenery scene with multiple mountains standing tall in the far background.

Not to mention, there were multiple flying beasts soaring around the sky as some were even able to breathe out fire.

There were also some lakes going downstream, creating a lively atmosphere.

Such a scene made it hard for Tang Lingling to believe they had entered some sort of ancient ruin.

After all, ancient ruin in her mind was something similar to a gloomy atmosphere where deaths linger everywhere, unlike the current scene that seemed full of life.

"Y-Young Master, we are outside now." Tang Lingling stuttered as she forgot to inform Lee Tao.

Lee Tao slowly opened his eyelids slightly as he yawned.

"That took a long time considering your cultivation base, Tang Lingling." Lee Tao said in a bit of a disappointing tone.

Afterward, Lee Tao got off from Tang Lingling's arms as he glanced around the scenery.

'As expected… this ruin is a pseudo-Immortal living place.' Lee Tao snickered inwardly as he would do the pseudo-Immortal a big favor.

"Everything is mine." Lee Tao shouted loudly, shocking Tang Lingling for his sudden outburst.

"Y-Young Master, is there something wrong?" Tang Lingling asked.

"Of course, there is something wrong here." Lee Tao said as he pointed at the herbs and the lovely creatures roaming around the area.

"Those belong to me now so it should have been stored in my spatial ring and not outside."

Tang Lingling twitched her mouth.

The shamelessness of Lee Tao truly knows no bounds as everything in the scenery doesn't have an owner yet Lee Tao had already called dibs on having everything.

"Yes Young Master, everything in this area belongs to you." Tang Lingling said with a blissful smile.

As much as she didn't agree with his mindset, she didn't dare to provoke him again, lest her mouth might be a victim again.

Sometime later, Lee Tao began walking toward the lush greenery of herbs that is brimmed with life.

"Ahh, such fine herbs are only worthy in my pocket." Lee Tao grinned evilly as he plucked the entire root of the herbs.

Lee Tao proceeded to do the same for every herb he walked by, taking everything for himself without leaving a single speck of dust behind.

Everything was his and there's no way he would share these with anyone else other than himself.

"Young Master, if you pluck the entire root out then there won't be any more of these herbs growing." Tang Ling suddenly said, hoping to knock some sense back into Lee Tao.

"A cultivator would always leave a tiny bit of seed behind so that the herb can be replanted and grow back again. If you take out its roots as well then it will be like destroying nature and going against heaven's will that gave the herb life." She added.

Lee Tao snickered at the words Tang Lingling spouted.

"You're wrong Tang Lingling, everything is either mine or no one else can get it." Lee Tao said.

Since this was a pseudo-Immortal's ruin, then it would only be impolite of Lee Tao to not take everything.

After all, he was a true Immortal and it should be the pseudo-Immortal's honor to have his things taken by Lee Tao.

"If I can't have it then no one else can." Lee Tao smirked as he decided to have Tang Lingling collect the herbs and anything valuable for him.

Tang Lingling cursed herself silently for speaking up again. If she hadn't spoken up, she wouldn't have been the one scavenging multiple herbs for Lee Tao.

'Why can't I stay silent in front of Lee Tao?' Tang Lingling cried inwardly.

Sometime later, Tang Lingling proceeded to collect the herbs from the soil and stored them in her spatial ring.

Meanwhile, Lee Tao began inspecting the area and wondered what kind of dimension they were in.

'From the space crack into being thrown in the cave… just what is this ancient ruin?' Lee Tao was dumbfounded since no one would bother wasting their time in creating a separate dimension.

"Even I wouldn't create this large of an environment…" Lee Tao muttered as he rubbed his chin.

Seeing how he still couldn't comprehend the action of the pseudo-Immortal, Lee Tao decided to ask Xiao Chu if she got anything from her scan.

However, Xiao Chu was equally clueless as Lee Tao and showed him a simple map view without much detail.

"Xiao Chu, try to change your scanning into thermal temperature." Lee Tao ordered.

If the scanning couldn't detect anything on the surface, Lee Tao thought that the thermal temperature from an environment would give him something useful.

After all, there are things that can't be detected with the naked eye and Xiao Chu's map scanning was similar to it.

Xiao Chu nodded her head as she changed her method of scanning.

Xiao Chu then spent the next 10 minutes or so scanning around the area.

"The scanning has been completed." Xiao Chu said once she got the new scan completed.

"Quickly show it in the projection!"

Soon, a projection screen with only thermal imaging was shown and Lee Tao curled his lips upward when he finally noticed a suspicious area.

"Heh, did you think you could hide from me, the almighty Lee Tao?" Lee Tao started laughing evilly as he sneered at the creator of this ancient ruin.

'Young Master is crazy again…' Tang Lingling wrinkled her brows. She decided to mind her own business and continue to store the herbs into her spatial ring.

While Lee Tao continued to laugh wickedly, back inside the cave, Yao Meixiang and the other two finally woke up.

"Ugh, what happened?" Yao Meixiang said as she rubbed her temples. "My head hurts…"

"I don't know either." Jia Qiu and Meng Xue both replied as they felt a headache as well.

Suddenly, Yao Meixiang's face turned pale as she shouted, "Wait a minute, didn't we fall into a trap? How are we still alive?"
