After spending more than two years with Kong Ming, Wen Ziqing had already figured out Kong Ming's temper. This stone had a temper similar to its body, stinky and hard.
"Didn't we agree on this? In half a year, another half a year, I'll be able to completely refine this old man." Kong Ming curled his lips, not wanting to pay any attention to Wen Ziqing. People are always greedy. Remember when it and Wen Ziqing took down the Baopu Taoist last month, Wen Ziqing was so happy. It's only been a month, and Wen Ziqing is already complaining about its slowness? Does he really want to avoid its help? Humph!
"It's taking too long! I can't wait any longer." Wen Ziqing frowned. When Baopu Taoist first possessed Wen Ziqing, his spirit was severely damaged, forcing him to hide in Kongming's small space, healing while waiting for an opportunity to strike back. While he was healing, Kongming hadn't been shy, contributing a generous amount of soul water to Wen Ziqing's restoration. Otherwise, Wen Ziqing would have been finished by now.
However, Kong Ming was willing to contribute the precious soul water out of his own sake. Otherwise, if the master he had just signed the contract with died, Kong Ming himself would not be much better off, at best he would lose his rank or at worst he would die.
During the time that Baopu Taoist possessed Wen Ziqing's body, He Jingjing frequently visited him to harass him. Baopu Taoist, believing He Jingjing to be Wen Ziqing's fiancée, feared the discovery of his "switch" by pretending to be Wen Ziqing, so he could tamper with He Jingjing. He Jingjing, known for her thick skin, noticed that Wen Ziqing was no longer cold towards her and quickly became close to him. Their relationship blossomed. Fortunately, Baopu Taoist himself had little interest in women; otherwise, Wen Ziqing's innocence would have been in jeopardy.
Wen Ziqing hid in the small space of the Kongming Stone, watching Baopu Taoist holding his body against He Jingjing's, holding hands and touching her face. He wanted to rush out and chop off both of his hands. Wen Ziqing was terrified! If Zhou Yuanyuan knew that "he" and He Jingjing were close, she would definitely ignore him.
After Wen Ziqing's soul was restored, he immediately engaged in a fierce battle for his body with Baopu Taoist. Every time they fought, Wen Ziqing's soul was injured, and he was replenished with Kongming's soul water, while Baopu Taoist's soul was injured, but he could only hold on.
Fortunately, Wen Ziqing was a reborn being. His spirit was much stronger than that of an ordinary Qigong cultivator, almost reaching the level of a Foundation Establishment cultivator. As a result of this, a month ago, the spirit of Taoist Baopu was subdued by the combined efforts of Wen Ziqing and Kongming.
Wen Ziqing stuffed the remaining soul of Baopu Taoist into Kongming's Soul Refining Pool. Kongming's Soul Refining Pool was a remarkable place. As the name suggests, it was a place for refining the soul. The souls that entered the Soul Refining Pool would be refined by Kongming into pure soul water. This soul water was a good thing for repairing the soul and was a legendary treasure in the world of cultivation.
Although Wen Ziqing temporarily subdued Taoist Baopu, he did not dare to let his guard down before knowing whether Taoist Baopu had any unknown tricks up his sleeve.
After Wen Ziqing "snatched" his body back, he discovered something awkward. Because of the incident involving Taoist Baopu, He Jingjing's identity within the Yushan Sect was Wen Ziqing's fiancée. He Jingjing had moved out of Xiaoyao Peak several months prior and into Wen Ziqing's courtyard on Jinping Peak. In the eyes of everyone at Jinping Peak, He Jingjing was Wen Ziqing's woman.
In order to prevent Taoist Baopu from escaping and seeking revenge on those close to him, Wen Ziqing did not turn against He Jingjing for the time being.
This time when Wen Ziqing left the secret realm, He Jingjing attached herself to Wen Ziqing as his fiancée and returned to Kyoto with him.
Initially, Wen Ziqing had thought that to protect Zhou Yuanyuan, he could tolerate playing coy with He Jingjing, waiting for Master Baopu's soul to be shattered before slowly cleaning up the mess. But today, after seeing Zhou Yuanyuan's heartbroken tears, Wen Ziqing realized the absurdity of his decision.
Therefore, Wen Ziqing wanted to get rid of Taoist Baopu as soon as possible. He only wanted to see his little girl and didn't want to see He Jingjing again.
"There's nothing you can do if you can't wait. How about I let the old man out and you fight with him again by yourself?" Kong Mingshi said coldly.
Being "disdained" by Wen Ziqing for his incompetence, Kong Ming was filled with anger. Humph! To suppress the old man's spirit, he had exerted tremendous effort. Kong Ming didn't bother to be stingy with the soul water he had obtained over the years, and directly gave a third of it to Wen Ziqing. Otherwise, Wen Ziqing wouldn't have advanced so quickly from a Qi Condensation cultivator to the Foundation Establishment stage.
Baopu Taoist is a Jindan cultivator! To quickly scatter his soul, Kongming can only release him and let Wen Ziqing disperse Baopu Taoist's spirit to speed up the refining process. However, the disadvantages of doing so are obvious. If Wen Ziqing fails to do it well and Baopu Taoist's spirit escapes, he will wait for Baopu Taoist to catch his breath and take revenge!
Isn't it better now? Just wait for half a year, and the old man's spirit will completely disappear. Has the master gone crazy or turned into a masochist? Do you want to relive the pain of being torn apart during the battle between spirits and spirits?
Hearing Kong Ming's provocative tone, Wen Ziqing's face darkened. Oh well! His Kong Ming was the boss, so who made him a weak master?
However, what Kong Ming said was true. The struggle between spirits for ownership of a body was a deeply dangerous one. Wen Ziqing shuddered as he recalled the pain of his soul being torn apart during the recent battle with Taoist Baopu. The pain was like a dull knife slicing through the depths of his soul, a pain even a well-trained soldier like Wen Ziqing could not endure.
However, Wen Ziqing didn't dare approach Zhou Yuanyuan until the Taoist Primordial Spirit of Baopu had completely dissipated, fearing that he might bring her into danger. Cultivators had strange and bizarre methods, so who knew if the Taoist Primordial Spirit of Baopu had any other means of escaping his body?
The little girl is so sad today. It will take another six months for the spirit of Taoist Baopu to dissipate. Who knows how much will happen in that time? Will the little girl get so angry that she will ignore him?
For a moment, Wen Ziqing was in a dilemma.
On the other side, when Zhou Yuanyuan returned to the Zhou family's old house, she saw Cao Yizhi and her father Zhou Zhixin sitting on the sofa and having a good conversation.
Zhao Yunxiang was also there, adding a cup of tea for Zhou Zhixin and Cao Yizhi from time to time.
As a mother, Zhao Yunxiang was also worried when she heard Cao Zhizhi's report. Although Zhao Yunxiang knew that her daughter was not an ordinary person, this matter involved Wen Ziqing from the Wen family, and Zhao Yunxiang understood how upset Zhou Yuanyuan would feel.
