Chapter 94
"Because I feel comfortable and happy with you, and I really need such emotions to infect me." Bai Cangze placed his paw in Ji Mingqing's palm and said seriously.
"I admit, when I first approached you, it was to monitor you, but later on, that task could have been handed over to someone else. If I were just investigating, there was no need for me to be here all the time."
"I can save people, but I never personally send them home after saving them. I can select a technique for those who have made contributions, but I won't guide them step by step in their cultivation after selecting it."
"If it were someone else, I definitely wouldn't treat him like this, do you understand?"
Ji Mingqing curled his fingers, felt the warmth of his palm, and unconsciously held Xiaowan's paw.
After hearing Bai Cangze's words, Ji Mingqing suddenly felt a little at a loss. Every word the Lord said seemed to be spoken to a friend, but he had no way to regard the Lord as his friend for the time being.
The difference in status is ultimately a barrier between the two of them. Even though Ji Mingqing has always lived in a social environment where everyone is equal, when he thinks of Bai Cangze's humanoid figure that looks like snow on a mountain top, Ji Mingqing feels a little hesitant.
But this was a bit unfair to Bai Cangze. Ji Mingqingze looked at Bai Cangze who was so sincere. In order to make himself feel more at ease, he turned into a cub, and the fear in his heart gradually dissipated.
"So we're friends?" Ji Mingqing looked up at Bai Cangze. "Do you think so?"
Bai Cangze was silent for a moment, then nodded firmly and replied, "Yes, I think we are friends."
Ji Mingqing sighed deeply: "Then I really took advantage of it. There are so many people in the fairy world who want to be your master's friend."
"But there's no one in the fairy world like you, who dares to touch my tail and stroke my fur."
Although Ji Mingqing was sure that Bai Cangze would not settle accounts with him later, he still felt guilty and said, "If I had known then that you were the Lord, I would have definitely worshipped you and would not have dared to touch you every day."
"So, it's just a coincidence between us, but it's a good one." Bai Cangze smiled and stroked Ji Mingqing's palm, "Any other questions?"
"Yes." Ji Mingqing nodded seriously and continued to ask, "Why does Kunze Palace prohibit flying?"
"Just this?" Bai Cangze was a little surprised, but immediately frowned.
"Do I have to answer?"
Ji Mingqing quickly shook his head vigorously and said, "No, no, if you don't want to talk about it, forget it."
"Do you still remember the Danyang Order that Yin Fuzhang used to escape and avoid inspection by the Supervisory Office?" Bai Cangze said.
"I remember. How could I forget? Could it be related to the Danyang Order?"
"It's because of the Danyang Palace Master, Lin Qingchen, who issued the Danyang Order. Ten thousand years ago, before the Demon Realm invaded the Immortal Realm, we had a grudge. He was a fire phoenix and often came to Kunze Palace to cause trouble. That's why I later established a ban on flying near Kunze Palace."
"But Lin Qingchen hasn't appeared in a long time, so it doesn't matter if the ban is lifted."
It turned out to be a grudge from ten thousand years ago. Ji Mingqing suddenly realized that if he hadn't mentioned it, the Lord might not even remember that there was such a ban.
"Then I have nothing to ask." After Ji Mingqing finished speaking, he saw Bai Cangze trying to retract his claws. He immediately grabbed Bai Cangze's front paws and seemed to be hesitant to speak to Bai Cangze.
Bai Cangze looked at his expression and asked, "What's wrong? Any other questions?"
Ji Mingqing shook his head, "No, no."
Forget it, I'll just get used to it slowly.
But Bai Cangze seemed to see through Ji Mingqing's thoughts, "Do you want me to remain in my cub form in front of you?"
Ji Mingqing's eyes widened, and he quickly waved his hands, "No, no, I haven't thought about it that way."
"Don't lie, tell the truth." Bai Cangze changed his tone again. Ji Mingqing looked at the little white fur ball in front of him, which had become more majestic, and felt mixed emotions.
Just such a small ball of fur could release such pressure that it almost made him unable to breathe. If he really stood in front of him with the mentality of a lord, he would probably suffocate to death now.
If this problem is not raised now, you will be the one who suffers in the future. Do it!
"My Lord, could you please stay in your Xiaowan form for a little longer in front of me? Your human form is so imposing, I... I..."
"You don't like it?"
"No! Absolutely not! How could I not like Yu Xi Zhengli! It's just that I'm a little bit..."
"Are you still afraid?"
Was he afraid? Ji Mingqing thought about it for a moment. He was a little bit afraid at the time, but not much. He felt that facing the Lord was like a primary school student facing his teacher. He knew that the Lord would not hurt him, but he was a little nervous.
"I wasn't scared, I just felt a little bit nervous, just like when my mom called my full name, I was especially nervous."
"Is that so? Okay, I'll always stay in this form. Is that okay?"
"Okay, okay!" Ji Mingqing has discovered in the past two days that no matter how majestic or stern a kitten is, how scary can it be?
Even if it's a transition period.
"By the way, you said before that you wanted to ask the Lord for help. Tell me, maybe I can help you." Bai Cangze said casually. He took advantage of Ji Mingqing's kindness to stay in Fengxi Garden with great difficulty, so he had to make Ji Mingqing happy.
Ji Mingqing then remembered that his biggest goal after coming to the fairyland was to seek help from the Lord, to help him return to the small world, to help him return to the time before the accident. He thought it would take him dozens or hundreds of years to achieve this goal, but he didn't expect it to be solved so easily.
Ji Mingqing cleared his throat, his voice trembling slightly with excitement as he asked, "Can you help me go back to before the accident? In the small world?"
"I'm afraid that won't work. It's because of that accident that you were able to come to the Immortal Realm. If I try to stop you, then you won't have the opportunity to come to the Immortal Realm. Then both realms will be in chaos, and the consequences will be unimaginable."
"Ah..." After listening to Bai Cangze's explanation, Ji Ming suddenly became a little flustered.
Ji Mingqing: "So I have to die?"
Bai Cangze: "Don't talk nonsense. Aren't you still alive now? You went back just to make your mother not too sad, right?"
Ji Mingqing nodded, "That's right. I don't really care about my life or death, but when I think about my death, my mother will definitely be very sad, so I..." Ji Mingqing lowered his head to hide his red eyes.
Bai Cangze thought about it, then produced an irregular piece of white jade in his hand, and then took out a red rope and tied it to the white jade to make a necklace.
"Put it on." Bai Cangze pushed the necklace to Ji Mingqing, "I'll teach you how to do it after you put it on."
Without saying a word, Ji Mingqing hurriedly put the seemingly plain necklace on her neck. Bai Cangze watched Ji Mingqing's actions, and the corners of his lips curled up slightly, "Remember, you can't take this necklace off under any circumstances."
Jiming nodded vigorously as he listened to the words, "Yeah!"
"Although I can't control what happens, I can take you back to that point in time. However, once you return to that point in time, you must remember not to change anything."
Ji Mingqing was an obedient student at this moment. He remembered every word of Bai Cangze firmly in his heart, "I will never change a thing."
Bai Cangze was satisfied. "This thing needs to be nurtured in you for seven days. After seven days, I will take you back."
"Can I go back after seven days?" Ji Mingqing's voice suddenly became louder, and then he realized that he had lost control. He quickly coughed lightly and pretended to be calm to thank Bai Cangze.
"Thank you so much, my lord." After expressing his gratitude, Ji Mingqing felt that his gratitude was a little pale. He thought about it and felt that Bai Cangze didn't seem to lack anything, which made him feel a little at a loss.
"After I help you, can you agree to one condition of mine?"
Ji Mingqing felt that Bai Cangze's words were simply the sound of nature. The Lord was too considerate. He must have known his current difficulties and took the initiative to help him out.
He had just been thinking about whether he should offer the entire Fengxi Garden to the Lord. However, Fengxi Garden was only a work in progress, and he was not quite ready to show it off. So, how about just signing a contract?
Bai Cangze didn't know what Ji Mingqing was thinking. He just felt that if he helped Ji Mingqing, Ji Mingqing would seem very touched, and then cook a big table of food for him, or say something stupid about transferring the entire Fengxiyuan to him.
"Don't call me Lord anymore. Just call me like you did before."
"Xiao Wan?" Ji Mingqing blurted out, and then felt that he seemed a little bold and presumptuous.
The word Xiaowan is so casual, and he named the Lord as a pet. Before, the Lord was even unwilling to tell others that he could speak, which must be because he felt ashamed of the name Xiaowan.
Now he's actually calling Xiaowan on his own initiative? Could it be that he's planning to catch him making a mistake and then kill him? That's what tyrants used to do.
No, you can't compare the Lord with the tyrant. The Lord is so nice, responsible and generous, willing to treat me as a friend, and he's white and chubby...
"What's wrong? Don't want to?"
"I'm willing!" Ji Mingqing looked at the harmless little white fur ball in front of him and smiled with his eyes curved.
"Xiao Wan!" Ji Mingqing called out. Since the Lord had said so, why couldn't he treat the Lord as his own Xiao Wan? He had called him that for so long before, and the Lord hadn't gotten angry!
After calling "Xiao Wan" this time, Ji Mingqing vaguely felt that the relationship between the two of them had become a little different. He lowered his head and looked at Xiao Wan with some pity as usual, but the next moment, Xiao Wan's words broke Ji Mingqing's expression.
"Did you and Zhao Yu discuss increasing the yield of immortal plants? This would be a great opportunity to cultivate and plant at the same time. Let's go over there now."
Ji Mingqing: “…” It was indeed the familiar taste.
Ji Mingqing sighed, resigned himself to picking up his storage bag and preparing to go out to practice. At this time, Bai Cangze also jumped onto Ji Mingqing's shoulders.
After jumping onto Ji Mingqing's shoulders, Bai Cangze felt Ji Mingqing's body stiffen and he couldn't move for a long time. He felt disappointed that Ji Mingqing still couldn't get used to the gap between the two of them, and was no different from other people.
Then Ji Mingqing said, "Xiao Wan, you are the Lord, so you should have a lot of rare seeds."
After Ji Mingqing called out "Xiao Wan", he started to give up and now he even wants to start taking advantage of the Lord.
Bai Cangze was in a good mood. "I have a lot. I'll select a few seeds that are suitable for your current level. But I have to tell you, none of these seeds will survive easily, so you have to be prepared."
"Don't worry, it's not difficult to survive for me." Ji Mingqing patted his chest proudly. After patting his chest, he thought of Bai Cangze's elastic and thick chest muscles that he had bumped into before.
Look at yourself again. Even though you have a little bit of muscle, it is not visible at all after you put on clothes. Your chest looks very powerful even through the clothes.
Ji Mingqing was a little envious. Bai Cangze didn't know what Ji Mingqing was thinking at the moment. Last time, he felt that the relationship between the two was like the ice that had just frozen. He was afraid that if he was not careful, Ji Mingqing would return to the state of treating him like a guest of honor.
"Did you feel anything unusual when you were practicing under the Hongmeng Treasure Tree?" Bai Cangze asked on the way to the Fairy Plant Field.
Ji Mingqing recalled his feelings at the time. "Nothing much. I just felt like we were very familiar with each other. In fact, I felt that he was a bit like my family, very close. But when you said he was a tree and I was a person, it felt a bit strange to say it."
"He's a fairy tree. Whatever you feel is normal. Is there anything else?"
"No, I wasn't. My mind was in a daze at the time. I was only thinking about practicing the spell, and I didn't pay attention to anything else."
"I suspect you have ancient blood. People with ancient blood go to the lower realm only for training. Now they return here and usually have memories of their past lives, but you still have none, so this point remains questionable."
After listening to Bai Cangze's words, Ji Ming said with a smile: "How could I have any ancient bloodline? If I had ancient bloodline, I would definitely be a killer."
"Don't be so decisive. You might find out later."
"Maybe it's because I'm a descendant of Yan and Huang. The descendants of Yan and Huang always have some farming skills in their blood. You know, in our little world, my fellow villagers are all very good at farming. Even if they don't know how to do it at first, they can learn it after practicing. I think if someone other than me came up, I would definitely achieve the same success."
"That's absolutely impossible." Bai Cangze didn't seem to want to hear Ji Mingqing's jokes about this. "I'll give you the seeds now, go plant them."
This time, Bai Cangze gave Ji Mingqing five large bags of seeds. Each type of seed was carefully selected by Bai Cangze and was a plant that was taller than the fairy plants he was currently planting.
The higher the level, the more difficult it is to plant. However, this is not the primary issue in Ji Mingqing's eyes.
"You want me to plant all five bags in one day? It's already afternoon!"
"You are no longer the ordinary Little Immortal from a few days ago. You are now a Golden Immortal who can travel to the small world. Naturally, the intensity of your training must be increased."
"Also, I will teach you swordsmanship tomorrow. From now on, you will practice swordsmanship in the morning, plant in the afternoon, and take care of Fengxi Garden's affairs in the rest of the time. Is this arrangement okay?"
Ji Mingqing: “???”
"You only have levels now, but no strength. This will put you at a disadvantage in battle. If you want to choose another weapon, that's fine."
Ji Mingqing quickly waved his hands: "Wait! Aren't we moving a little too fast now?"
"How can it be fast? It's already much slower. If I knew you would be cultivating under the Hongmeng Treasure Tree for a whole year, and that your cultivation level would directly ascend to the Golden Immortal, I would have taught you the sword technique long ago."
"No, I still don't know what weapons the immortal world has. There can't be only swords, spears, swords, halberds, axes, hooks and forks. I want to choose carefully. And this should not be changed now. I must choose carefully and can't make such a hasty decision."
After hearing Ji Mingqing's words, Bai Cangze thought for a moment and said, "You make sense. How about waiting seven days until you have dealt with the affairs of the small world and come back to make your choice?"
After giving himself a seven-day holiday, Ji Mingqing breathed a sigh of relief. "Don't worry, I will choose carefully."
"But you're wrong in one respect. Once this is finalized, it can be changed. The weapons of each Immortal Association are not limited to the same type."
"What about you? What weapons do you know?" Ji Mingqing asked casually.
"I have a basic knowledge of all 132 types of weapons listed in the Immortal Realm Weapon Catalogue."
When I saw a look of pride on Bai Cangze's furry face before dawn, I knew that this little knowledge was definitely not just as he said. Maybe he was proficient in all these 132 things!
Ji Mingqing gave Bai Cangze a timely response that he liked: "So Xiaowan is so amazing! I was too narrow-minded."
"But I have other things to do these days. I'll tell you after I finish planting these fairy plants."
After Ji Mingqing finished speaking, he prepared to carry a large bag in one hand, and then move the five bags of seeds to the fairy plant field in three trips. I didn't expect that after he picked up a bag of seeds that was half a person's height, he found it was very easy. It felt less than carrying half a watermelon!
Ji Mingqing couldn't believe it, so he reached out and grabbed another bag, then lifted the two bags together, and found that it was also very easy.
He has become stronger!
"After reaching the level of Golden Immortal, all aspects of your body functions will be enhanced. According to my estimation, you can lift all five bags with one hand, but it may be a bit troublesome. I still recommend that you use two hands."
Ji Mingqing was ecstatic. "Why didn't I think of that? When I turned into a Pingxian and woke up from your bedroom, I even tore up one of your handkerchiefs. At that time, I was really worried that you would ask me to compensate you."
Bai Cangze smiled and said, "How could I be so petty as to care about every little thing?"
"I didn't know at the time, and it was my first time meeting the Lord, so naturally I had all kinds of weird thoughts in my mind."
Ji Mingqing easily placed the five bags of seeds behind the Prophet Tianpeng and casually opened one of the bags. "What kind of seeds are these?"
"This is jade. After midsummer, the petals that bloom are as clear as jade. This flower only blooms for one night, so growers often miss its blooming period. After missing out, they have to uproot the flower and plant it from scratch. Therefore, both the flower and the seeds are extremely precious."
"Then plant this first!" Ji Mingqing said confidently, "At worst, after planting it, I can just sleep next to it every day. I don't really need to sleep right now anyway."
"The jade matures in about a month, so you don't have to sleep nearby every day." Bai Cangze said helplessly, "We can send someone to patrol the area and notify you directly if there's anything unusual."
"Yes, they are all from your Kunze Palace, so they are easy to use." After saying this, Ji Mingqing's heart suddenly "skipped". He felt that this sentence seemed to be a bit over the line, but Bai Cangze said nonchalantly: "Before they came here, I had already told them to follow your orders. Otherwise, military orders will be issued."
Ji Mingqing felt that the word "military order" was really out of place when used on him. He couldn't help but laugh out loud, sweeping away the panic he had just felt.
Ji Mingqing carried the bag to the immortal plant field he had cultivated and planted the "Jade" plant, which was famous for its "one out of ten harvests survives." After practicing the technique, he found that it was exactly as Bai Cangze had said, but the smoothness of the immortal energy flow and the interaction between him and the seeds had improved significantly.
He didn't even need to recite a long string of incantations before planting. As long as he thought about it, the seeds would follow his thoughts and fall to the place where he wanted them to be planted.
Ji Mingqing found that planting became easy and he started to enjoy it. He hummed a song while practicing magic spells and had a lot of fun. Soon he had planted the entire bag of seeds.
After planting, Ji Mingqing ran over to Bai Cangze and said, "Look how fast I'm planting! I feel like after reaching the Golden Immortal stage, things are really different!"
"Logically speaking, even if you have reached the Golden Immortal, it shouldn't be so easy." Bai Cangze decided to never be dissatisfied with Ji Mingqing again, so he pointed out the strange things on Ji Mingqing's body.
"But this doesn't do me any harm. If you can't find the reason, you can look for it later." Ji Mingqing rubbed Bai Cangze's waist and comforted him.
Bai Cangze nodded, and the next moment he turned into a human form. He stretched out his hand and pulled Ji Mingqing in front of him.
"Didn't you say you felt relaxed? Why are you still rubbing your waist?" Bai Cangze put his hand on the back of Ji Mingqing's hand. Ji Mingqing's whole body was stiff at this moment, and the touch of the back of his hand was extremely clear, but the next moment he felt a cool fairy air being passed into his body through his hand.
"Don't be distracted. Feel the direction of my spiritual energy. Later, you can use this method to eliminate physical fatigue."
But didn’t you tell me before that I could achieve the same effect by just using a little bit of spiritual energy?
Ji Mingqing thought secretly in his heart, but he didn't dare to say it out loud. He didn't even react to how Xiaowan turned into a human form without even saying hello.
So nervous!
It’s just that Bai Cangze’s spiritual energy flowing through his body was so comfortable. Why didn’t Xiaowan teach him this trick before?
Bai Cangze's hand was firmly covering the back of Ji Mingqing's hand that was rubbing his waist, and Ji Mingqing was too comfortable, and his legs softened and he fell into Bai Cangze's arms.
"Is it so comfortable?"
