Chapter 107
After Li Shiyin left the Star Soul Chamber where she was sacrificing her life treasure sword, Qin Ran dealt with the bamboo whip and then went to the Research Building, hugging Chasing the Wind.
This little guy fainted after eating the last Robbery Wind. He still showed no signs of waking up even now. Although he looked unharmed externally, one could never know what’s going on inside. Qin Ran had to check on him carefully.
After an examination at the Research Building, Qin Ran prescribed medicine for Chasing the Wind and refined pills for him. He then melted the pills and absorbed them into Chasing the Wind’s body, making sure he had fully absorbed them before taking him back to the cat’s nest.
In fact, there wasn’t much problem with Chasing the Wind. He was a level 7 demon beast, Profound Underworld Spirit Tiger. Once matured, he would at least be comparable to a Yuanying stage cultivator. It was indeed difficult for a single Robbery Wind of the restrained attribute to cause substantial harm to him.
Qin Ran had only prepared some pills to accelerate Chasing the Wind’s digestion and dispel coldness, which, together with his absorption of the Robbery Wind... Qin Ran believed he would wake up soon.
Compared to Chasing the Wind’s condition, Huang Feiyu's problem was the bigger one. Up until now, the first phase of his transformation still hadn't been completed. This was rather abnormal.
"Where is Tian Wenjin?" Qin Ran asked Long Qiqi who was on the tree.
These days, the two wild girls at home had been going crazy everywhere, leaving quite a reputation in the Dao Sword Sect. Strangely though, Tian Wenjin was nowhere to be seen.
"She went to earn spirit stones!" Long Qiqi liked the old locust tree very much. Hugging a tree branch, she swung and refused to come down, answering,
"She left on the second day after you were gone. Before leaving, she told Li Shiyin that she had to find ways to earn spirit stones to pay back Danfeng Sect. We guess she probably went to take on sect missions. She should be carrying out missions now."
"Well, that's good..." Qin Ran nodded.
Sect missions themselves mainly served to temper inner disciples. To let disciples go out and fight, to build a solid foundation for their cultivation, and to enhance their adaptability - in short, it was all beneficial for the disciples' cultivation.
If it hadn't been for the Extreme Demon Weeping Willow incident, according to Qin Ran’s plan, after successfully sacrificing her life treasure sword, Li Shiyin would have gone to take on sect missions.
Now that Tian Wenjin was doing sect missions, it was definitely much better than her previous way of cultivation relying on pills.
Standing under the tree while Long Qiqi was on it, Qin Ran looked up at Long Qiqi, wanting to say something but hesitating for quite a while before making up his mind.
"What else do you want to ask?" Long Qiqi took the initiative to ask.
So Qin Ran pondered for a while more before asking, "Do you have any cultivation techniques?"
Low-level demon beasts like Long Qiqi, after accumulating endless years and transforming into human forms, was exactly so that they could cultivate human cultivation techniques, taking a shortcut to go further on the path of immortality.
But Long Qiqi had been following them for so long, yet she was still just an ordinary demon beast, even inferior to ordinary ones, because she only had physical strength without any demon power at all. She hadn't even started cultivating, let alone having any cultivation techniques. Qin Ran doubted whether she even had one.
As expected, Long Qiqi shook her head. "No."
"Then... do you know your spiritual root attribute?" Qin Ran felt that he should still help her in this regard.
"Don't know."
She didn't even know her spiritual roots. Qin Ran couldn't help asking, "Then how are you going to cultivate?"
"I came out of the forest exactly to find cultivation techniques!" Long Qiqi justified herself categorically.
"Judging from your cunningness, I thought you'd been living in the human world for a long time..." Qin Ran shook his head and said, "Come down and let me check your bone quality."
"Ah!?" Hearing this, Long Qiqi hurriedly hugged her petite body in alertness, "What do you want to do?"
"Huh?" Qin Ran was baffled by Long Qiqi's reaction, "What can I do to you?"
"Don't pretend to be innocent. You just molested Li Shiyin, didn't you? I didn't expect that you weren't satisfied yet and still want to take advantage of me too!" Long Qiqi sharply pointed out Qin Ran's villainous nature.
Qin Ran looked up to the sky with a sigh, "Will you come down or not? If not, I’m going back to my room to sleep."
"Aha... so you're implying, aren't you!"
Qin Ran turned and left.
"Ashamed into anger, huh?" Long Qiqi exclaimed smugly, "Luckily I was vigilant enough that a lecher like you didn't succeed!"
So Qin Ran couldn't help thinking of the old saying again, lustfulness was innate to the snake nature. Although Long Qiqi had transformed into a little girl, her mind was full of dirty thoughts. It seemed this was really inborn.
After a nice sleep in his room, the next day, Qin Ran set up a swing under the old locust tree. Long Qiqi loved swinging things like rocking chairs, tree branches and so on very much. It must be the special hobby of snake demons. Then making her a swing should be great since Chasing the Wind already got a Qin Ran-shaped cat scratcher... He couldn't show favoritism here.
With Qin Ran’s return, Li Shiyin could only continue digging the lake. However, a large area at the bottom was covered with stone slabs now, making the digging extremely difficult. No wonder she went out fighting every day.
In snake form, Long Qiqi helped Li Shiyin transport stones from the lake bottom... Transporting stones was originally Chasing the Wind’s job, but with him still unconscious, Long Qiqi took over the task.
After setting up the swing, Qin Ran came to the lakeside with a glass of happy water, ready to take a break. Then he overheard the two girls with weird mindset discussing him at the lake bottom.
In a low voice, little girl Long Qiqi said, "Your master is so perverted. He wanted to take advantage of me yesterday."
"Really?" Li Shiyin’s big eyes blinked. Strange ideas seemed to be flashing inside. "What did he do?"
"He said he wanted to check my bone quality and determine my attribute." Long Qiqi said. "It's obviously an excuse. He wanted to touch my beautiful body."
"Did he manage to touch you then?"
"No, my wise eyes saw through his attempt!"
"Oh..." Li Shiyin sighed regretfully. If he had touched Long Qiqi, could she use it as an excuse to ask master to check her bone quality too? Cough...
She casually asked, "Do you know what quality your spiritual root is then?"
"Ah?" Long Qiqi was stunned for a moment and shook her head. "Don't know."
But she was very confident. "But it must be the best quality!"
"Then how are you going to determine your spiritual root?" Li Shiyin asked doubtfully.
"How did you determine yours?"
"When I first joined the sect, there was a magic treasure. My blood dripped on it and it revealed my spiritual root." Li Shiyin said.
"Then use that!"
"That is the sect’s instrument which can’t be privately used. It’s only used during apprenticeship ceremonies." Li Shiyin said. "Actually, master may really be able to check spiritual roots by touching..."
"I don't believe it..."
With a black face, Qin Ran sat down on the recliner and gently coughed to remind the two girls with weird mindset circuits down there, "Li Shiyin, you seem quite free? Why don’t you carve a cat climbing rack for Chasing the Wind after the cat scratcher!"
"Ah? How do I carve a cat climbing rack?" Li Shiyin asked.
"Carve however you want." Qin Ran said.
"Sigh..." Li Shiyin sighed.
Long Qiqi whispered again, "It’s obvious your master is more biased towards Chasing the Wind after coming back this time. Now he even wants you to carve a cat climbing rack for him. You’ve become a complete cat slave... Ah!"
Before she could finish, something hit her head, causing her excruciating pain despite its seemingly light strength.
Li Shiyin looked and found that it was master using the bamboo whip to whip Long Qiqi once with water manipulation.
"Whipping for gossiping and fanning flames behind people's back!" Qin Ran said.
After whipping her, he lay down on the recliner and hung the bamboo whip on the old locust tree to warn them.
"Humph!" Long Qiqi rubbed her head indignantly.
Li Shiyin hurriedly shut up, wielding her sword with circulating magic power. With the sword aura billowing, she started contemplating how to carve a cat climbing rack for Chasing the Wind.
