A response came quickly, and a bright spot flew in.
"Xi Shi, Xi Shi..." Zu An clenched his fists secretly.
However, when the bright spot finally appeared in front of him, Zaun was dumbfounded.
Because it was a bright green hat!
Holy crap!
Zuan couldn't help but curse his bad luck, then continued to smoke. This time he dared not lose his luck and dared not directly expect something of Xi Shi's caliber. He thought that as long as he was given something usable, that would be fine.
...
After six rounds of drawing lots, Zuan's eyelids twitched uncontrollably. He was almost going crazy looking at the six neatly arranged green hats in front of him.
Don't play this game with me! The emperor bestowed upon me a title of "Green Hat Nobleman," and then all I drew were green hats? And they were the really ordinary kind, with no other functions whatsoever.
Damn it, I need to change this title as soon as possible, otherwise if I make it big in the future and people introduce me as the hereditary cuckold Wang Zu'an, I'll feel like dying.
Seeing that the green was a bit of an eyesore, Zuan simply summoned Phoenix Flame and burned it all away.
I'm going to start wholesaling green hats for people to wear!
Zuan grew angrier the more he thought about it, but unfortunately, it was late at night and there was no one to talk to.
Left with no other choice, he summoned Daji and poured out his pent-up frustrations. Unfortunately, from beginning to end, Daji simply stared at him with her beautiful and alluring eyes, offering no response whatsoever.
“I forgot you don’t have a soul.” Zuan couldn’t help but sigh, then took out the Spirit Fruit he had won in the lottery and fed it to her.
She is now at the sixth rank. It takes 800 Qi Fruits to go from the sixth to the seventh rank, and she has already consumed 360 of them. So she is almost at the fifth level of the sixth rank.
It's important to know that her "bewitching charm" skill is linked to her cultivation level; the higher her own level, the higher the level of the people she can control.
Previously, in order to control the head of the Imperial Medical Academy, they tried various methods to improve her "Bewitching the World" skill, including alchemy and preparing various rare materials. In the end, she only improved from being able to control those of lower level than her to being able to control those of equal cultivation.
The improvement was minimal, far less worthwhile than directly enhancing her own cultivation level.
After studying it for a while, he roughly determined that it was easier to improve Daji's cultivation level at the beginning, but it would be difficult to improve it in the later stages. After all, it seems that Daji's cultivation system can only reach the ninth rank at present.
Upgrading the "Charm of the World" skill after that will be even more useful.
"If you earn another 440 Qi Fruits, you'll reach the seventh rank. Hmm..." Zu'an was studying the system's explanation of her cultivation system when she suddenly noticed that as her cultivation level increased, more related information appeared in the system.
Once these Valkyries reach the sixth rank, each breakthrough to a higher level isn't simply a matter of accumulating Qi Fruits; they also need special items to aid in the breakthrough.
For example, for Daji to break through from the peak of the sixth rank to the seventh rank, she would need 5 Wuyang Jade, 10 Fangs of the Azure Wolf King, 30 Qinghuo Flowers, and 20 Nine-Headed Pheasant Feathers.
Zuan had never heard of these names before, so he hurriedly checked the descriptions. Daji belonged to the Qingqiu Nine-Tailed Fox clan. Her hometown, Qingqiu Mountain, was rich in jade on the sunny side and azurite on the shady side.
Wuyang jade should be a type of fire-type jade, while Qingluo belongs to a type of cold-type plant.
The greatest enemy of the Qingqiu Nine-Tailed Fox Clan is the Canglang Clan. When the Nine-Tailed Foxes are young, they are often preyed upon and killed by the Canglang Clan. Therefore, in order to grow up, the Nine-Tailed Foxes must prove themselves by hunting down the Canglang King and protecting their clan.
As the name suggests, the Fang of the Wolf King is the tooth of the Wolf King, and it must be their two sharpest canines. A wolf pack has only one wolf king, and can only obtain two of these teeth.
Zaun was filled with regret. They had encountered a pack of wolves in the secret realm before. If they had known this would happen, they should have caught a few and put them in their storage space.
He hurriedly looked down and saw that the nine-headed pheasant feather was the most unique feather under the pheasant's wing. Once this feather was lost, the nine-headed pheasant lost its ability to fly at high speed.
As for why Daji needs this feather for her breakthrough, the above description says that the Nine-Tailed Fox clan loves to eat chicken, and the Nine-Headed Pheasant is a rare and delicious wild chicken species.
After reading these descriptions, Zu An was completely bewildered. Looking at the stunningly beautiful woman in white before him, he wondered if he should find a roast chicken and place it in front of her to see if she would eat it.
However, he soon realized that improving her cultivation level was probably not as easy as he had initially imagined, mainly because it was constrained by these special items.
The Fang of the Wolf King is alright; I can pry off a few next time I have the chance. The Nine-Headed Pheasant Feathers are also available in the shop that I unlocked before. Although each one requires a lot of rage points, at least there's something to look forward to.
As for Wu Yangyu and Qinghuo Flower, he had never even heard of them, and they weren't even in the in-game store system.
"Let's go to the Imperial Hospital tomorrow and ask." As he was thinking, Zu'an fell asleep without realizing it, while Daji, dressed in white, sat quietly by the bed watching him.
When Zuan woke up the next day, he was startled to see someone by his bedside. But after recognizing Daji, he couldn't help but laugh: "Oh, it's you. Sorry, I forgot to take you back. It must be boring sitting like this all night."
Daji continued to watch him quietly.
Zuan was somewhat bored: "How can we get your soul back? It would be such a waste otherwise."
Daji blinked, seemingly touched, but was speechless upon hearing the other party's next words: "The first thing I'll do after you have a soul is to hold you and sleep with you."
