Chapter 59: Give Out Candy! Give Out Candy!
As soon as these words were uttered, everyone present was astonished.
As everyone knows, the “Pill, Artifact, Charm, Music” five masters basically produce one Innate Spiritual Sacred Body every ten thousand years. At that time, no matter what their cultivation level is, they will definitely become a overlord within their exclusive domain.
Just like the Artificing Saint Ou Ziye, the Talisman Saint Wei Shuo, and the Music Saint Yiqi Huang from over ten thousand years ago, they were Innate Spiritual Sacred Bodies, which allowed them to emit such dazzling light in their respective domains.
I never expected that a girl who was abandoned by her own father would actually be an Innate Spiritual Sacred Body.
“Under my tutelage, A Wei learned human language by the age of six and her behavior gradually shed the habits of beasts. I then wanted to awaken her spirit root like humans. I discovered that her spirit root was merely the most ordinary Earth Rank high-grade spirit root, but she happened to be a Spiritual Sacred Body.”
The Mengji beast said, “My cultivation has already reached the Mahayana Stage, and there are few opponents left in the world. I know A Wei’s mother is suffering humiliation in another village. However, I cannot leave the north of Shuangyu Mountain. If I were to leave, the Beast Sect would surely notice. At that time, not only A Wei, but all the Heaven Rank spiritual beasts in the Hundred Beasts Cave would suffer utter destruction.”
So she could only watch as A Wei’s mother remained in that village where demons resided.
Hearing that the Mengji beast had reached the Mahayana Stage, Ming Zhaoshuang and the others were surprised and said, “Are you actually a Mahayana Stage cultivator?”
As they spoke, they unconsciously began to use respectful titles.
Mahayana Stage, this was too distant and too powerful for these youngsters who were only at the Golden Core Stage.
“I’ve just lived for a particularly long time,” the Mengji beast said with a smile, shaking its head. “Compared to other Heaven Rank spiritual beasts, our Mengji are not particularly strong. We might not even be able to defeat Earth Rank spiritual beasts of the same cultivation level. I am now over ten thousand years old. Most fierce beasts from the same period have already withered away in the river of time. I just happen to be old and have seniority.”
He Qingqing gasped, “Ten thousand years old?”
Although cultivators have long lifespans, cultivators at the Mahayana Stage can live to around fifteen thousand years old, and those at the Tribulation Stage can live to around twenty thousand years old. Once they achieve Ascension, they will become immortal, have the same lifespan as heaven and earth, and shine with the sun and moon.
But this Mengji beast in front of them had lived for over ten thousand years!
“Is ten thousand years very long?” the Mengji beast countered, as if teasing a child. “There are still people in this world who have lived for one hundred thousand years.”
Fei Changxiu sighed, “Good heavens…”
One hundred thousand years would have been enough for him to reincarnate in the Underworld several times.
“Then Senior, why are you staying on Shuangyu Mountain?” Ming Zhaoshuang asked. “It seems like you’re not very willing.”
A spiritual beast as powerful as the Mengji beast, even if subdued by a Beast Tamer, would surely be respected and not “imprisoned” on this small Shuangyu Mountain.
After Ming Zhaoshuang spoke, she suddenly realized that her words had touched upon the Mengji beast’s privacy, and she added, “This junior misspoke.”
“It’s alright,” the Mengji beast said, looking at Ming Zhaoshuang with an exceptionally warm gaze, as if looking at someone else through her. She smiled and said, “I was once bound by a master, and I was once saved by someone. I promised him three requests, and this is the last one.”
However, the young man who saved her back then had long been tainted by the secular world and had changed drastically.
“You saved A Wei’s mother, therefore you are A Wei’s benefactors,” the Mengji beast said. “I hope you can take A Wei out of Shuangyu Mountain and return her to her original sect. For this, I am willing to invite all honored guests to gather at the Hundred Beasts Cave.”
As soon as these words were uttered, A Wei wiped her tears and said, “I hope all my older brothers and sisters won’t dislike me.”
Everyone looked at each other. Although they didn’t understand the Mengji beast’s intention, the youngsters, looking at A Wei’s tear-soaked little face, all nodded in unison.
We’ll go, then. Regardless of whether this Mengji beast is good or bad, with their current strength, if the Mengji beast wanted to kill them, they would surely report to the Underworld in minutes.
A Wei smiled again, revealing her still-incomplete milk teeth.
This made all her older brothers and sisters playfully ruffle her black hair.
Fei Changxiu coughed and pretended to be serious, “Do you know who I am? I am the Chief Senior Disciple of the Ao Tian Sect, your mother’s sect, you know? You’ll have to call me Senior Brother there!”
He Jiusi said, “Senior Brother, although you are the Senior Brother, you are only the Senior Brother of our Xiu Tian Peak. The position of Chief Senior Disciple hasn’t been decided yet.”
“Junior Brother Er, shut up!” Fei Changxiu glared at He Jiusi and said, “Don’t damage your Senior Brother’s image.”
Ji Qi said, “Do you think I’ll let you take the position of Chief Senior Disciple so easily?”
Fei Changxiu snorted coldly, “Junior Brother Ji Qi, talk to me after you reach Late Golden Core.”
He had recently broken through to Late Golden Core, but Ji Qi was still only at Golden Core Mid-stage.
He Qingqing tilted her head and said, “I don’t care who fights for the position of Chief Senior Disciple. A Wei will definitely join our Yu Tian Peak. While your Chief Senior Disciple position is contested, there’s no dispute over the Senior Sister position in our Yu Tian Peak.”
“Come, Little A Wei, call me Senior Sister.”
A Wei opened her eyes and looked at He Qingqing, then hesitantly said, “Se-Senior Sister?”
“Aiya!” He Qingqing smiled broadly, holding a bag of spirit stones in her hand, and extended it to Ming Chenxing, “Senior Brother Ming, give me two candies.”
Ming Chenxing was silent for a moment, then glanced at Ming Zhaoshuang, as if questioning her, while Ming Zhaoshuang seemed to recall something and burst into laughter.
Finally, Ming Chenxing reluctantly compromised and took out a bottle of pills from his storage bag.
However, he did not accept the spirit stones He Qingqing gave him.
He Qingqing put the pills into A Wei’s hand and said, “This is a reward of two candies for you. Remember Senior Sister when you come to Yu Tian Peak in the future.”
Ming Zhaoshuang was not to be outdone, coughed twice, and said, “Although I’m not from your Ao Tian Sect, can you call me Senior Sister too.”
After all, among these people, she was the youngest.
She also really wanted someone to call her Senior Sister, she was tired of hearing Fei Changxiu call her Junior Sister every day.
It should be known that her inner core had long been replaced; she was now over twenty years old.
Seeing that A Wei seemed unfazed and was just chewing on the pills He Qingqing gave her, Ming Zhaoshuang held up her hands and gestured, “Call me Senior Sister Ming, Senior Sister Zhao, Senior Sister Shuang, any Senior Sister, as long as you call me one, I’ll give you ten bottles of pills!”
“Ten bottles!”
Upon hearing this, A Wei immediately shouted crisply, “Senior Sister Ming!”
Ming Zhaoshuang was satisfied and directly reached out, “Chenxing, quickly, quickly give me ten bottles of pills.”
Ming Chenxing: “…”
Miss, can we just say, do you know how expensive pills are!
He resignedly lowered his head and took out ten bottles of pills from his storage bag one by one, handing them to A Wei, and instructed, “These pills are harmless, but don’t eat too many. One bottle a day at most.”
A Wei smiled and nodded, “Okay, Senior Brother.”
Ming Chenxing’s hand trembled, and he gave A Wei the last two bottles of pills from his storage bag.
A Wei hugged the pile of pills and laughed with delight.
Seeing that everyone was happily playing with A Wei, the Mengji beast was naturally much more at ease.
It wasn’t until Shen Liqian’s lightning tribulation ended and she underwent metamorphosis that everyone explained the events to her. She nodded slightly, agreeing to the journey to the Hundred Beasts Cave.
The Mengji beast then transformed into its original form, carried Qin Zhi and A Wei on its back respectively, and led the youngsters to the core area of the Hundred Beasts Cave in the north of Shuangyu Mountain.
