Chapter 103: A Different Kind of Feeling
Qingli emerged from the spiritual space and chirped beside Ye Fei, "Congratulations, Master, on your advancement!"
Ye Fei gently stroked Qing Li's soft feathers, thinking of a question: "Qing Li, will my cultivation advancement affect you?"
"Of course! Although humans and spirit beasts have different cultivation years, in the master-pet rule, the master's status is higher than the pet's. No matter how high the cultivation level of the contracted beast is, it can only be suppressed to be on the same level as the contractor."
"In other words, although Qingli is currently at the divine beast level, after forming a contract with you, master, she can only exert the strength of a sixth-level spirit master."
Ye Fei pondered for a moment, realizing there was such a saying...
"Then I need to advance as soon as possible so that you can better assist me in the battles to come."
Ye Fei helped Qing Li groom her feathers and said with a smile, "Since you chose me as your master, I will definitely not treat you unfairly."
Qingli bounced around in her palm, clearly enjoying Ye Fei's words.
"Alright, let's pack up. It's time to go find Su Haochen to collect the debt."
Ye Fei stood up and stretched, but a sharp pain suddenly shot through her body. She staggered and fell back onto the bed.
Qingli was so frightened that she fluttered her little wings: "Master! What's wrong with you?!"
"I...cough cough..."
Ye Fei coughed, noticing a faint trace of blood in her palm. She sighed helplessly, "I almost forgot, my internal injuries haven't fully healed yet..."
Qingli stood by the bed, her small black eyes filled with worry: "Master, why don't you stay in bed and rest today..."
Ye Fei could only nod. She pulled the blanket over herself and pouted.
She needed to recover from her injuries, but Su Haochen owed her a debt...
"I've got an idea!"
Ye Fei had an idea. She sat up, picked up a pen from the table next to her, wrote a sentence on a piece of paper, rolled it up into a strip, and handed it to Qing Li: "Take this with you and go find Li. He is also in this academy... You should be able to sense his presence."
Qingli was somewhat dissatisfied: "Master, that guy hurt you so badly yesterday, and you still want Qingli to pass on his message?"
"He didn't mean to hurt me. Besides, he's my little brother. It's not wrong to leave the things I can't do to him, is it?" Ye Fei comforted him patiently.
When her master gave the order, Qingli didn't say anything more, and resignedly flew out the window with the paper in her mouth.
Not long after, footsteps were heard outside the door.
Ye Fei put on a coat, got out of bed, and went to open the door. Li Yuan was standing outside the door, staring intently at her, holding a rolled-up piece of paper in his hand.
Seeing that her face was slightly pale, and seeing the words on the paper, Li Yuan understood: "You have something for me to do?"
"Cough...yes."
Ye Fei coughed, and she and Li Yuan walked to the pavilion and sat down. She told him about the matter in a few words.
Upon hearing this, Li Yuan nodded: "I understand. I will collect this debt for you. You can stay in the dormitory and recover from your injuries today."
After saying that, Li Yuan was about to get up and leave decisively when Ye Fei grabbed his wrist. "If Su Haochen doesn't cooperate, break one of his legs... cough cough, just don't kill him."
She kept her word and never went back on her promise to Su Haochen that day.
Li Yuan reached out and draped her coat over her shoulders, saying calmly, "I know what to do. Go and rest."
The boy left quickly.
Qingli, perched on Ye Fei's shoulder, tilted her head and muttered, "Master, I always feel like that guy has different feelings for you..."
