Qingyun Immortal Sect
Xiao Xiaofan stared at the people from the Lingyao (Spiritual Medicine) Sect, his eyes full of curiosity. “Lei Xuan, why are these people here?”
Lei Xuan shook his head and said, “I don’t know either.”
The people from the Lingyao Sect had different spirit herbs embroidered on their sleeves, making them easy to recognize.
The leader was a late-stage Golden Core cultivator with an extraordinary demeanor.
Xiao Xiaofan tilted his head and looked at the leader. “Who is the leader of the Lingyao Sect? He has a strong fire spirit energy.”
Lei Xuan glanced at Xiao Xiaofan and said, “His name is Mu Yun. He has dual fire and metal spiritual roots, and he has the Xuan Yang physique. He’s a genius of the Lingyao Sect.”
Xiao Xiaofan nodded. “No wonder.”
The little flower chicken was hopping around on the ground.
“Brother, what’s wrong with your chicken?” Xiao Xiaofan asked, puzzled.
Xiao Xiaodong shook his head. “I don’t know either. It seems particularly excited today.”
Xiao Xiaofan squatted down and looked at the little flower chicken, suspiciously asking, “Why? Is it mating season? Brother, do you need to get another chicken? By the way, is it male or female?”
The little flower chicken roared and spat out a blue mist at Xiao Xiaofan, making him feel dizzy and faint.
The little flower chicken jumped onto Xiao Xiaofan’s head, messing up his hair.
Xiao Xiaodong struggled to restrain the little flower chicken, preventing it from causing more trouble.
“It’s not mating season; it saw something delicious,” Xiao Xiaodong whispered.
Behind Mu Yun was a beautiful female cultivator whose mount was a Blue Feather Swallow. Xiao Xiaodong knew from his experience that the little flower chicken was a carnivore, especially fond of eating birds.
The little flower chicken was so agitated likely because it had its eyes on the Blue Feather Swallow. This Blue Feather Swallow looked like it would be a perfect meal for the little flower chicken.
“Junior Sister Wanran, that junior disciple’s pet has been staring at your Blue Feather Swallow. Your swallow is so beautiful that it even amazed their pet,” said Zhu Jin from the Lingyao Sect, trying to flatter Xie Wanran.
Xie Wanran glanced in Xiao Xiaodong’s direction. “That’s not a pet; it’s a contract beast.”
Zhu Jin was surprised. “A contract beast? Who would take a chicken as a contract beast? How desperate for spirit beasts must one be to make such a choice?”
Xie Wanran shook her head. “I don’t know either.”
Zhu Jin curiously looked at the contract beast beside Xiao Xiaodong, while Xiao Xiaodong gazed at the little flower chicken on the ground with a grim expression.
Upon seeing the Blue Feather Swallow, the little flower chicken could only think of “catch and eat.” Its desire was so intense that this thought echoed in Xiao Xiaodong’s mind. Xiao Xiaodong had promised the little flower chicken to buy it a few swallows to snack on, which finally calmed it down.
…
Xiao Jingting had gathered some information and learned that the purpose of the Lingyao Sect and the Wushuang Sect’s visit was to exchange some materials for the Bodhi fruits from the thousand-year-old Bodhi tree within the Qingyun Immortal Sect. These fruits could increase the chances of forming a Golden Core. Every time the Bodhi tree bore fruit, both sects would send people to exchange for some.
Knowing this, Xiao Jingting couldn’t help but feel tempted. As a cultivator with three spiritual roots, forming a Golden Core was extremely difficult for him. Anything that could aid in this process was highly valuable. Xiao Jingting pondered whether he could exchange some resources for a couple of Bodhi fruits from the sect.
“Manager Qiu, do you know about the Bodhi fruits?” Xiao Jingting asked Qiu Yun.
Qiu Yun nodded. “Of course. Are you interested?”
“It’s something that can increase the chances of forming a Golden Core. Naturally, I’m interested,” Xiao Jingting replied with a smile.
Qiu Yun folded his arms and said indifferently, “Our sect’s Bodhi tree is only a thousand years old, so its fruits have limited effects. If it were a ten-thousand-year-old Bodhi tree, the fruits would be much more potent.”
Xiao Jingting was intrigued. Since his jade pendant space had been filled with a large amount of spirit stones, it had expanded dozens of times. Xiao Jingting thought to himself that maybe he could grow a Bodhi tree in his space. It was said that Bodhi fruits could increase the chances of forming a Golden Core, Bodhi leaves could calm the mind, and cultivating under a Bodhi tree could prevent the growth of inner demons. However, nurturing a Bodhi tree to ten thousand years would likely require burning a lot of spirit stones.
Qiu Yun looked at Xiao Jingting and asked, “What are you thinking about?”
Xiao Jingting shook his head. “Nothing.”
“Actually, if you want to form a Golden Core, there’s no need to look far,” Qiu Yun said.
Xiao Jingting looked at Qiu Yun in confusion. “What do you mean?”
“If the Jade Peach grows into a Jade Peach King, it can also aid in forming a Golden Core. However, the Jade Peach King appears randomly, and the probability is very low. But with your skills, you might be able to cultivate it,” Qiu Yun said with a smile.
Xiao Jingting forced a smile. “Manager Qiu, you have too much faith in me.”
Qiu Yun smiled indifferently. “Do you prefer I look down on you?”
Xiao Jingting: “…”
“Keep working hard. If you manage to cultivate a Jade Peach King, I’ll owe you one,” Qiu Yun said.
Xiao Jingting: “…”
…
Xiao Jingting stood in front of the Jade Peach Forest and was thinking about something. when Xiao Xiaodong, Lei Xuan, and others walked over together.
“Father.” Xiao Xiaofan ran towards Xiao Jingting.
Xiao Jingting caught Xiao Xiaofan. “You’re so big now and still so clingy.” His son’s strength was increasing, and fortunately, his own physical condition was better than in his previous life; otherwise, he would have been crushed.
Xiao Xiaofan blushed. “Father, are you annoyed with me?”
Xiao Jingting ruffled Xiao Xiaofan’s hair. “Of course not.”
“Father, this peach grove is beautiful!” Xiao Xiaodong exclaimed.
Xiao Xiaofan tilted his head. “It’s pretty, but there aren’t many peaches. Some are even protected by restrictions and can’t be eaten.”
Xiao Jingting: “…” His son always had a way of ruining the moment.
“Have you seen the people from the Lingyao Sect?” Xiao Jingting asked.
Xiao Xiaofan nodded. “Yes, the leader of the Lingyao Sect always has a sour face, just like Brother.”
Xiao Xiaodong: “…” Why did Xiao Xiaofan have to drag him into this?
Xiao Jingting pinched Xiao Xiaodong’s face. “Xiaodong, you should smile more. Smiling makes you look younger. If you keep looking so serious, you’ll scare off all the girls, and how will you find a wife?”
Xiao Xiaodong’s face turned red. “Dad, I’m still young. It’s not time for that yet.” He didn’t want to be like his silly brother, who was already infatuated at such a young age, attracting idiots and scoundrels.
“I heard that Mu Yun is a genius of the Lingyao Sect,” Xiao Jingting said.
Xiao Xiaodong nodded. “Yes.”
“The woman from the Lingyao Sect has a swallow. Brother’s little flower chicken wants to eat it,” Xiao Xiaofan said.
Xiao Xiaodong looked at Xiao Xiaofan, puzzled. “How do you know?”
“It told me. It said if I help, it would share half with me,” Xiao Xiaofan said.
Xiao Xiaodong gritted his teeth. “When did this happen?”
“About an hour ago,” Xiao Xiaofan replied.
Xiao Xiaodong: “…” He had bought several expensive demon birds to calm the little flower chicken, and it had indeed become more behaved. But hearing Xiao Xiaofan’s words, Xiao Xiaodong felt a sense of frustration.
Xiao Xiaodong glared at the little flower chicken. The little flower chicken stood there calmly, as if wondering why Xiao Xiaodong was making such a fuss over a small matter.
Xiao Jingting was taken aback but then found it amusing. His usually serious son had such an unreliable chicken.
“Why didn’t you tell me?” Xiao Xiaodong asked.
Xiao Xiaofan felt guilty. “I’m telling you now.”
Xiao Jingting patted Xiao Xiaodong’s back. “Xiao Xiaodong, calm down, calm down.”
Xiao Xiaodong angrily stared at the little flower chicken. The little flower chicken strutted around with an air of superiority, clearly unimpressed by Xiao Xiaodong’s reaction.
Qiu Yun walked over slowly. “Someone in the Lingyao Sect has a swallow?”
Xiao Xiaofan nodded. “Yes, it’s a Blue Feather Swallow. It looks well-fed and probably has a lot of fat.”
“That Blue Feather Swallow has high bloodline potential. If you eat it, there will be great benefits,” Qiu Yun said, rubbing Xiao Xiaofan’s head.
Xiao Xiaodong’s little flower chicken was excited, looking at Qiu Yun with admiration, as if saying, “Finally, someone who understands.”
“Manager Qiu, please don’t joke. My son can’t handle such teasing,” Xiao Jingting said helplessly.
Qiu Yun glanced at Xiao Jingting disdainfully. “Look at you getting all scared. I was just joking.”
Xiao Jingting: “…” This joke was not funny at all.
Xiao Xiaofan curiously asked, “Manager Qiu, you said the Blue Feather Swallow has high bloodline potential. What kind of bloodline does it have?”
“Rumor has it that the Blue Feather Swallow has a trace of the Golden-Winged Roc’s bloodline, though it’s very thin. The Golden-Winged Roc is a race that feeds on dragons,” Qiu Yun said.
Xiao Xiaofan blinked. “Really?”
Qiu Yun looked at Xiao Xiaodong’s little flower chicken. “I can’t tell what breed this chicken is, but its bloodline seems high. Take good care of it.”
Xiao Xiaodong nodded. “I will.”
The little flower chicken gave Xiao Xiaodong a sideways glance, looking proud and smug.
Qiu Yun wandered around and then left leisurely.
Xiao Jingting left the kids to eat peach blossom cakes.
After eating and drinking their fill, Xiao Xiaodong and the others left.
Tang Yunjie looked at Xiao Xiaodong’s little flower chicken in amazement. The little flower chicken walked with an air of might and grandeur, exuding an extraordinary presence.
