Chapter 073 Demon Lord 9
Although it was magical, Xiao Yan did not forget the important matter.
"That's right, Er is much smarter than you."
The more he looked at it, the more he found this donkey likable. The donkey also liked its new name very much, and snorted at Xiao Yan again.
The joy of one man and one donkey did not include Qin Feng.
Xiao Yan fondly stroked the donkey and suddenly said, "I think Ah Er is quite intelligent. He will be your junior apprentice in the future. As the donkey's brother, you must treat him like a brother. Do you understand?"
After that, he smiled kindly at Ah Er Donkey and said, "I know you can understand. Are you willing?"
Ah Er Donkey shook his head up and down: "Ah uh, yes, yes, ah uh, yes!"
Qin Feng: “…”
Qin Feng didn't know what was right about the projection stone that the donkey was talking about, nor did he know how to complain about having a donkey become his junior brother. In short, he had a lot to complain about.
Seeing that he remained silent, Xiao Yan frowned, "What? Your master doesn't discriminate against you, but you do? Are you also discriminating against the demon race?"
Ah Er also raised his hoof and dug the soil at him, with all his unhappiness shown on his donkey face.
"Ah uh monster, ah uh monsters don't discriminate!"
Even though Ah Er had no bloodline inheritance, he could still feel the pressure of the divine beast bloodline coming from Qin Feng. Whether it was a demon beast or a demon clan, the hierarchy was very strong. This was why mice were afraid of even kittens, except for the pet cats now.
What Ah Er meant was that Qin Feng was a demon, it was also a demon, and everyone was a demon, so why was there any racial discrimination?
Qin Feng: “…”
Now that he has secretly sold the donkey, is it too late?
Xiao Yan did not expect that this donkey was so smart. You know, if Qin Feng had not taken the initiative to release the fire and wind pressure, the other monsters would not have been able to see the monster in the previous week. If something went wrong and he had not been reported, he probably would not have been imprisoned in the Forbidden Monster Tower.
"Your junior brother said a few words to you, and you're still unhappy?"
Xiao Yan was not a biased person. He was afraid that Qin Feng would have some small emotions, so he began to try to persuade him.
"The projection stone your junior brother mentioned holds immense significance! Throughout our journey, I've been able to overcome every conflict with the help of the projection stone. What I'm going to teach you today is the importance of public opinion."
"What is public opinion? Public opinion refers to the views and opinions expressed by the public at a certain time or place on a certain matter. To put it in a more realistic and concrete way, let's take the example of the Burning Sea Sect before. They had a Spiritual Transformation Stage backing them. If a fight really broke out, do you think the sect would still defend you as before? Things are very different now, Xiao Qin."
"Why would they make peace with me? Of course, it's because I'm on the moral high ground, and the Burning Sea Sect is the one at fault! Everyone has long harbored resentment towards the Burning Sea Sect's Young Master. If this incident gets out of hand, the only one left at the mercy will be the Burning Sea Sect. Other self-proclaimed righteous sects will also have a legitimate reason to act. For various reasons, the Burning Sea Sect elders can only swallow their anger. This is the importance of public opinion, and it's also closely related to the projection stone your junior brother mentioned."
"When we conduct public opinion, we cannot do it without evidence, so we must have evidence at the beginning of the public opinion. We must understand the importance of public opinion!"
Xiao Yan taught him carefully, "However, public opinion also needs to be tailored to the specific situation. Don't underestimate it. It has supervisory and restraining effects. Otherwise, why do the mortal worlds insist on having a legitimate reason for action? Why does the imperial court immediately implement policies when natural disasters or man-made disasters occur? Isn't it for the sake of public opinion and the people's hearts?"
"Of course, public opinion itself represents evaluation and criticism. If you want to control public opinion, you must also be correct. If you don't control public opinion, it will inevitably be controlled by it. This is the principle that water can carry a boat, but it can also capsize it."
"I teach you this not to make you superior to others, but to help you protect yourself. I believe you are aware of your special fate. No one is born to be swayed by fate. Man can conquer nature. I believe that my disciple will have a reputation that is no less than mine in the future. Of course, this presupposes a good reputation. If it is not a good reputation, remember not to reveal my name."
Qin Feng: “…”
Qin Feng was very complicated. He didn't expect that Xiao Yan was indeed a man of high moral character! Look at the public opinion he was talking about. Is this something a gentleman could say?
But...it seems to make some sense.
He seemed to have some understanding.
"I have been very pleased these days. Now that I have arrived at Penglai, I am going to Antarctica to meet up with my old friends. The time is uncertain, so you can go and play with your little junior brother. Don't let me know that you bullied Ah Er."
Xiao Yan gave Qin Feng and A'er a donkey storage bag each, and then went out.
There is a formation above the Penglai Fairy Island that does not allow cultivators to fly in the air with their swords. However, there are special spirit beasts pulling carts and teleportation formations, which is quite convenient.
Xiao Yan had sent a message to the Nan Ji Zun early in the morning. The Nan Ji Zun is now in the Nanyu of Penglai Fairy Island, which is where Penglai Fairy Island treats patients.
The Antarctic Venerable was a middle-aged man dressed in a lacquered robe. He was serious and had the face of a dean of studies, which made him look quite intimidating.
When he saw Xiao Yan, he looked up and nodded, then lowered his head and continued to work. After another pause, a double image appeared, and the Southern Pole Venerable instantly came in front of Xiao Yan and opened his spiritual vision.
One looked speechless, and the other had a frown on his face.
"Using this method, it will only take a few years." The voice of the Antarctic Venerable was full of low and magnetic Yu Ge. It was the first time that he took the initiative to speak. This was a treatment that his original body had never enjoyed. He actually received preferential treatment, but it was a pity that it was not a good thing.
He was an excellent doctor and could tell Xiao Yan's general condition and life expectancy at a glance.
Xiao Yan said indifferently: "I have come to this world in vain, why should I fear death?"
He changed the subject: "It's just that I have a disciple named Qin Feng, who is born with bad luck and is not liked by others..."
"I don't treat you well enough. I didn't like it when I saw it for the first time." It was rare for the Venerable Nan Ji to express his opinion.
As soon as Xiao Yan and Qin Feng arrived on the island, he also opened his spiritual consciousness and met Qin Feng.
As one of the crazy people who was dedicated to saving people, the Antarctic Venerable rarely had evil thoughts, but that person gave him a very bad impression.
"The fate is so terrifying." The South Pole Venerable judged.
Even he found it difficult to have good thoughts.
"As cultivators, aren't we fighting for our lives against the heavens?" Xiao Yan sighed.
"Trust your son before dying?" The Antarctic Venerable hit the nail on the head.
Xiao Yan shook his head: "It's not really entrusting my orphan to me. Fellow Daoist, you also know that my disciple has a special fate. I'm afraid there will be a lot of trouble in the future. If you come to treat me, please give me some convenience."
He handed a storage ring to the Nanji Reverend. He scanned it with his spiritual sense and put it on his hand instantly. He looked very satisfied: "Okay."
But as soon as the word fell, a large group of people rushed out of the door, talking as they walked.
"Have you heard? The Young Master of the Burning Sea Sect is fighting with an unknown cultivator!"
"Well, if you want to hit me, then go ahead and hit me. What's so strange about that?"
"Don't you know? The Young Master of the Fenhai Sect forced a wandering cultivator to become his concubine in the street, and then he was beaten!"
"That's definitely a fight, then. What then? Even if it's the Young Master of the Burning Sea Sect, he shouldn't be making such a big fuss, right? After all, we Penglai people haven't seen anything. Just look at the love-hate relationship between the Master of the Hehuan Sect and the North Sea Venerable, the Master of the Three Flowers Sect, and the Master of the String Sound Sect. And the time before that, the Elder of the Controlling Sword Sect was blocked and had to flee in the street. We've seen everything."
"You don't understand. Even if no monks rescued that fellow Taoist, there would still be a guard team going over to help. The problem is that the guard team went over and directly captured the fellow Taoist who was trying to save him. In the end, it was a donkey that released the projection stone, and then we realized it was a misunderstanding. Let's go over and lend a hand. Actually, I don't want to watch the fun. I mean, I heard that man was outnumbered. Anyway, it was pretty miserable. I've never seen such an unlucky person. Oh no, I mean I want to lend a hand. Do you understand what I mean?"
Xiao Yan: “…”
Xiao Yan stepped forward and asked, "Young man, may I ask if that unfortunate monk has a shiny black and white donkey with him that looks very cute?"
The monk nodded and said, "I heard that there is indeed a donkey. That donkey can talk. It calls itself a projection stone. It's very strange. I have never seen a donkey talk before. Could it be a spirit?"
Xiao Yan: “…”
"Thank you, fellow Daoist."
Venerable Nan Ji also seemed to react and seemed to be hesitant to speak.
Xiao Yan smiled and said, "Yes, that unlucky person is a certain disciple, and that talking donkey is none other than my new disciple, Ah Er."
Reverend Nanji: “…”
The Antarctic Venerable was not interested in Qin Feng, but at the same time he was impressed by Qin Feng's ability to cause trouble.
"I've never heard a donkey talk before." The Antarctic Venerable muttered to himself.
Every request is granted, this is Xiao Yan's greatest gratitude to the Venerable Nan Ji.
Although Qin Feng had fighting experience in his previous life, he could not withstand the large number of people and the experienced grappling skills of the guards.
When he was sent here, his nose and face were bruised and swollen, and his face had become fatter, making it difficult to see his original handsome appearance. His hair was messy like grass.
The guards kept apologizing beside him, but the victim Qin Feng said nothing until he saw Xiao Yan. He didn't show any embarrassment. Ah Er, who was following behind him, limped over and stopped abruptly in front of Xiao Yan, raising a cloud of dust.
"Ah uh, ah uh, Master, ah uh, Master, this brother is very stubborn, ah uh, and won't listen to Master. If it weren't for ah uh me, he would have been beaten in vain! Fortunately, I opened the projection stone!"
Ah Er was full of complaints.
The Venerable Nan Ji on the side was already observing, and finally concluded that this was just a low-level donkey with good fortune, nothing special about it.
But whether this was a coincidence or a chance, it was unknown. If his spirit pet could speak, finding spirit plants would be much easier...
Ah Er didn't know what the Venerable Nan Ji was thinking. Although he could speak, he was just a chatterbox donkey.
Sometimes he would complain about Qin Feng, and sometimes he would nudge Xiao Yan's hand, asking him to eat some spiritual herbs. But he wouldn't eat them and would just throw them on the ground and eat what was in his hand... Xiao Yan hadn't realized that Ah Er was so difficult to please before, after all, it was Qin Feng who had always fed him...
Qin Feng standing aside went from being embarrassed to now having no expression on his face. If you look closely, you can tell that he is not in a mood to play badly.
Xiao Yan didn't take the opportunity to lecture him, but gestured to him, "Come, say hello to your uncle Nanji."
Venerable Nan Ji is older than his original self. Even though the world of cultivation does not judge seniority by age, according to the world of cultivation that judges seniority by strength, it is okay for Qin Feng to call Venerable Nan Ji the ancestor, let alone uncle.
