She currently has only a few spirit beasts under her command, and most of them are relatively docile: two third-tier seven-colored deer, a litter of first-tier wind-chasing rabbits, and five fourth-tier red-crowned cranes.
These cranes are very large and can carry a person while flying. They are also very fast, so many cultivators use them as a means of transportation.
They are gentle in nature, go out to play during the day and know to come back at night, so Ajahn doesn't have to worry about them much.
The only thing that's worrying is that litter of Wind Chaser rabbits. These little guys love to burrow and reproduce very quickly, so she has to keep a close watch on them.
After taking care of the other spirit beasts as usual, I went to the little silver fox's cage and gave them some water and meat.
A-Jiang noticed that the little ones had recovered somewhat, but they were still huddled in the corner, cautiously guarding against outsiders.
She sighed, thinking of Linglong.
That girl was determined to have a fox spirit in its transformation stage as her pet, and she caused several misunderstandings because of this.
Now that Silver Fox is right in front of me, I wonder when I'll be able to reunite with my good friend.
The only good thing is that her cultivation has been going very smoothly during this period. Because the spiritual energy of the Azure Lotus Sect is very abundant, she has already become a cultivator at the fifth level of Qi Refining.

After getting up early, Ah Jiang was preparing to tidy up the backyard when he suddenly heard a knock on the door.
She got up and opened the door; three men and women of similar age were standing in the doorway.
The boy was handsome, and the girl was beautiful; it was truly a feast for the eyes.
Ajahn asked curiously, "What can I do for you?"
"Greetings. I am Ye Sichao, and these two are Zheng Jingyang and Ning Anran. We are both miscellaneous disciples of Chu Yushan. We came to visit our fellow cultivators today because it is our day off."
A young man stepped forward and said.
Ah Jiang realized that his house didn't even have a living room, so he simply went out and said to them, "Then I'll go with you to visit them."
The three of them were taken aback by her reaction.
However, Ye Sichao reacted quickly, smiling and saying, "That's fine too."
Then the four of them headed toward another courtyard.
The little girl named Ning Anran asked gently, "What's your name? How old are you?"
The other two looked at her, waiting for her to introduce herself. So she said, "My name is Bai Chongjiang, I am fourteen years old, you can call me Ajiang."
Ye Sichao said, "I am seventeen years old, Jingyang is the same age as me, and Anran is younger, only twelve this year."
The four chatted and laughed as they walked to another courtyard. Ye Sichao knocked on the door and answered again, but it was clear they already knew each other.
"Brother Xingyun, the decorations here are truly elegant," Ye Sichao exclaimed.
"In the past, everything was arranged by my family. This is my first time doing this, so please don't laugh at me," Wen Xingyun said modestly with a smile.
Wen Xingyun has a delicate name, but he is not effeminate at all. His fox-like eyes are always smiling, giving him the appearance of a young master from a noble family.
"Brother Xingyun, you're too kind. How about we have a get-together while we're resting?" Ye Sichao said to everyone.
Zheng Jingyang agreed, saying, "Brother Ye's suggestion is excellent. I think the food at the village canteen is quite good. Should we have our gathering in our own courtyard or go outside?"
The five people looked at each other but didn't speak first. Ah Jiang didn't like this kind of social interaction, but he wanted to maintain appearances, so he was a bit conflicted.
Just then, there was a knock on the door. Wen Xingyun opened the door and saw two more people coming in together. One had a square face and looked a little older, while the other was pale and thin.
He was naturally delighted to welcome them in and introduced them to everyone, saying, "These are Sun Jin and Xiu Junyang, who are also our partners in this group."
After another round of introductions and pleasantries, Wen Xingyun said simply, "Now we're only missing three fellow disciples: Miao Qingqing, Zhuang Kexin, and Wan Fangfang. Why don't we invite them here for a get-together?"
This statement drew several chorus of agreement, all saying, "That's excellent!"
And so the matter was settled. Everyone was assigned a task: some went to invite people, some went to buy food and drinks, and some went to set up the banquet.
Ah Jiang, on the other hand, found joy in the process. They were all young men and women, without much scheming or calculation. They acted on impulse and gradually stopped worrying about it.
During the meal, Wen Xingyun raised his wine glass and said, "We are all of poor spiritual root aptitude, or abandoned by our families, or originally rogue cultivators. It is fate that we can come here together. I would like to toast everyone."
Everyone raised their glasses and drank the wine in them.
“Now that we’ve all joined the Azure Lotus Sect, we’re fellow disciples. Why don’t we announce our ages so it’s easier to address each other?” Ye Sichao suggested.
Zheng Jingyang chimed in, "Brother Ye is absolutely right. I am seventeen years old this year, and my birthday is at the end of August."
During the meal, people would exchange their ages and birth dates, and then be ranked according to age.
Sun Jin is the eldest senior brother. Surprisingly, Miao Qingqing, who has always been quiet, became the second senior sister. Zheng Jingyang became the third senior brother. Xiu Junyang is also a bit older than A Jiang and is the fourth senior brother. A Jiang is the fifth, Ye Sichao is the sixth, Wen Xingyun is the seventh, and the rest are mostly girls. Wan Fangfang is the eighth junior sister, Zhuang Kexin is the ninth junior sister, and Ning Anran is only twelve years old this year and is the youngest junior sister.
