Ji Mingqing, acting with valor, earned the heavens' favor. His soul ascended to join the immortal ranks, becoming an inconspicuous cog in the Celestial Court. By chance, he acquired a piece of ...
Chapter 64
Ji Mingqing didn't know that Bai Cangze had already arranged his future route. He took a lot of effort to move all the trees on the mountain.
He didn't know the name of the tree, but since it grew in the fairyland, it must be no ordinary creature. He put the trees he had uprooted into the storage bag and returned to the courtyard exhausted.
"Xiao Wan, I'm so tired." Ji Mingqing returned to the house and collapsed on the bed, exhausted. "But I've pulled out all the trees today, so I can start planting peach trees tomorrow."
"How many trees did you pull out today?" Xiaowan asked with dignity, standing on the table next to him.
Ji Mingqing struggled to prop up the table, threw the storage bag in front of Xiaowan, then immediately fell back and said with a little pride.
"I've pulled out all the trees on this entire mountain!" Ji Ming collapsed onto the bed, boasting to Xiao Wan with a hint of pride. "I pulled them out one by one, and I was careful to leave some of their roots, otherwise they might not survive if I planted them somewhere else."
"Look, after I finish planting the peach trees, I'll have to find a place to put them. Luckily, we have a lot of space here."
Xiaowan used his spiritual sense to investigate and was immediately speechless.
"Is that all?"
Ji Mingqing raised his eyebrows, "Why do you think this is not enough?"
Bai Cangze nodded honestly, "It's indeed a little less."
After listening to Bai Cangze's words, Ji Ming took a deep breath and said, "Please spare me, a little immortal. You can't compare my abilities with your own. I'm definitely not as good as you."
"So starting tomorrow, I will supervise your training." Bai Cangze's tone was emotionless as he stood on the table and looked down at Ji Mingqing. "You are really too weak."
Hearing Xiaowan's words, Ji Mingqing suddenly felt a little aggrieved. "How long have I been in the fairy world? And I practice every day. I haven't slept recently." The more Ji Mingqing spoke, the more bitter he felt. "I can't reach the top overnight. I know that if I want to gain a foothold in the fairy world, I have to improve my strength, but I..."
Having said that, Ji Mingqing rubbed his eyes, turned around and faced Xiaowan with his back.
"I understand. I'll just rest for a quarter of an hour, and then get up to practice right away." Ji Ming leaned towards the wall, closed his eyes tightly, and forced himself to adjust his breathing, not wanting to reveal any emotion.
Bai Cangze didn't know what was wrong with Ji Mingqing. He tilted his head and looked at the person who had his back to him, frowned, jumped off the table and walked out the door.
Ji Mingqing felt Xiaowan's departure, and the emotions buried deep in his heart were suddenly magnified. Grievance, unwillingness, annoyance, and sadness seemed to surround his heart at the same time at this moment.
But Ji Mingqing felt that these negative emotions seemed somewhat unreasonable. Since arriving in the Immortal Realm, he had not suffered any injustice. The biggest difficulty he encountered had now been temporarily resolved. As long as he continued to develop step by step, his career would surely flourish.
But he just felt so uncomfortable in his heart. Ji Mingqing closed his eyes tightly. He was so tired. Now he felt a little regretful. Why did he tell Xiaowan to rest for only a quarter of an hour? He should have lay down for a while longer.
Seeing the time slowly passing, Ji Mingqing estimated in his heart that the time was almost up. He opened his eyes and took two deep breaths, then raised his hands and patted his face, pulled the corners of his mouth hard, and relaxed the muscles of his face.
"Okay." Ji Mingqing felt that it was almost time. When he was about to turn around and get up, he smelled a rich fragrance at the tip of his nose.
The next second after smelling the fragrance, a bouquet of flowers appeared in front of Ji Mingqing. It was obvious that the flowers were prepared at the last minute. More than a dozen flowers were hastily tied into a bunch. The colors of the flowers were a bit messy, with yellow, white and pink mixed together, but the combination was unusually harmonious.
"For you." The stern Lord couldn't say anything nice. He just felt that Ji Mingqing seemed to be upset because of what he had said. He went out to ask Xu Yihe, who said that since Ji Mingqing was unhappy because of his low strength, he should give him something that could enhance his immortal power.
The bouquet of flowers in front of you is called [Yu Yu Grass]. Although they are flowers, what is truly valuable are the rhizomes underneath the flowers.
The smell of Yu Yu grass can help you concentrate and calm your mind, and the speed of absorbing spiritual power during practice will be increased, so as to achieve twice the result with half the effort.
However, Ji Mingqing didn't know the actual effect of this flower. He just saw Xiao Wangwan gave him a bouquet of flowers. Ji Mingqing's depressed mood was also blown away by the fragrance of this bouquet of flowers.
He picked up the flowers and turned around, looking at Xiaowan who was no longer standing on the table but lying on his side on his bed, and sniffed hard twice.
Then he pushed the flowers aside, opened his arms, hugged Xiaowan tightly in his arms, and said with a choked voice: "Thank you for the flowers, I..."
Bai Cangze felt a little uncomfortable when being hugged by Ji Mingqing, mainly because he used to be hugged but his hands would not touch randomly, but now why was Ji Mingqing hugging him while touching him all over?
Tsk, why are you still groping around?
Bai Cangze pushed Ji Mingqing's chest hard and said in a serious tone, "Hurry up and get up to practice."
Just as he looked up and wanted to leave, he saw Ji Mingqing's slightly red eyes, and his heart couldn't help but soften again.
The Lord, who was always used to giving orders to others, suddenly didn't know what tone to use at this moment. In the end, he had no choice but to open his mouth, move his claws that wanted to push him away, move upwards, and pat Ji Mingqing's face instead.
"Okay, once you've rested enough, get up and practice."
"Hmm." Ji Mingqing rubbed his head against Xiaowan's body, as if this could soothe all the negative emotions in his heart.
Bai Cangze sighed in his heart and thought, forget it. Although he didn't understand what the little god was thinking now, at least he knew that Ji Mingqing seemed to like the hair on his body very much and would touch him every time he got the chance.
Just touch it, no one else will see it anyway.
"Okay, I'm going to get up and practice now." Ji Mingqing was calmed down by Xiaowan's furry body. "But it's getting late now. If you leave, I may not have time to see you off."
Ji Mingqing hugged Xiaowan and rubbed his head. "I won't say hello to you then."
Thinking of this, Ji Mingqing was still a little depressed, "Are you really not staying here with me? Where is your home? Is it better than where I live?"
Xiaowan never mentioned inviting me to his house. Even Xu Yihe and Cui Ding said that I could visit their place if I had the chance in the future. Not only did Xiaowan not mention it, but every time I asked him, he was very secretive, either changing the subject or pretending not to hear.
Ji Mingqing wondered if Xiaowan still held the same wariness towards immortals that immortal beasts held towards immortals. This made him feel a little frustrated.
"Live at your place?" Bai Cangze was about to refuse without a second thought, but then he heard Ji Mingqing say, "What's wrong with living at my place? You can supervise my cultivation at night, and I can even cook you a little dinner."
Seeing Xiaowan's attitude soften, Ji Mingqing pressed the issue, "Just think of it as teaching me. I'll figure it out on my own. What if something goes wrong?"
Indeed, Bai Cangze had heard of many immortals with extraordinary talents, who fell into the path of evil just because of a momentary thought and turned around to cause chaos in the immortal world.
Ji Mingqing's talent was obviously more special than anyone he had ever met. If he were really discovered and used by the demons, it would be a huge loss for the fairy world.
"That's fine, but if I stay, you won't have time to rest. You'll have to practice every night."
Hearing that Xiaowan agreed to stay with him, Ji Mingqing was overjoyed, "Then let's start tonight!" After all, cultivation is also another kind of rest. He needed sleep before because he was not used to becoming a god.
"Don't worry, if I don't practice, you will..." Ji Mingqing scratched his head and couldn't think of any good punishment measures.
"Hmm..." Ji Mingqing looked at Xiaowan who was staying obediently in his arms, and a plan came to his mind.
"If I don't practice well, you won't let me hug you!"
Bai Cangze: "...I didn't let you hold me in the first place!"
Really, do you like touching so much?
The author has something to say:
Ji Mingqing: Is your house better than mine? Mine is a new house!
Kunze Palace "..."
Cohabitation life begins!
