Chapter 195
Cheng Hui thought about the furry group back then...
Lin Qingyang turned his head and looked at Cheng Hui, smiling gently, "If you like, you can also raise one."
Cheng Hui thought about the miserable scene of those furry creatures having their hair shaved off and shuddered.
Forget it, forget it, stop committing sins!
They are always on the move and are not suitable for keeping pets.
Cheng Hui gave up the idea of raising a furry pet. After all, there are so many furry pets, whether they are wild or raised by other people, they are all very good.
Not far away, City Lord Hua was petting a cat contentedly. Although he felt a little regretful that he failed to abduct the big cat, this regret disappeared when he thought that he would have to follow Cheng Hui for who knows how long.
Finally, he took out a piece of meat and stuffed it into the snow leopard's mouth. City Lord Hua glanced at the elegant man and said, with a hint of meaning, "Raising a spirit beast requires more than just satisfying its needs. You also have to establish your authority as its master. Otherwise, sooner or later, your spirit beast will retaliate. Proper discipline is good for both you and the spirit beast."
The elegant man had a thoughtful expression.
Come to think of it... his snow leopard is indeed a bit unruly. A few days ago, it accidentally scratched itself when it lost its temper. He didn't take it too seriously at the time, but now it seems... it really needs to be taught a lesson.
Wild beasts are always wild, even spiritual beasts are no exception. If you want a spiritual beast to become your good partner, you must suppress its wildness.
The snow leopard didn't know that its good days were about to end. It looked at City Lord Hua eagerly, hoping that she would leave quickly. As long as she left, it could return to its old days of tyranny.
"Let's go." After petting the big cat enough and giving instructions to the big cat's owner, Lord Hua could finally leave.
She saw that Lin Qingyang just raised his eyebrows slightly and was not surprised.
Or maybe she had gotten used to Lin Qingyang always being around Cheng Hui and never being too far away.
She glanced at Cheng Hui casually, walked a few steps forward, suddenly stopped, and looked at him again.
"What's wrong?" Cheng Hui was confused.
City Lord Hua touched his chin and suddenly clapped his hands: "I was wondering why I always felt something was wrong. Why did you suddenly lose weight?"
Huh? Cheng Hui looked down at himself. It was true… At some point, his propped-up body had returned to normal.
He recalled that it seemed that he had returned to his original form after the god modified the historical fragment. However, because he used the body of Priest Liu in that period of history, he ignored the changes in his body after he came out.
He felt his body and found that the energy he absorbed in the Yuanguang Secret Realm had been completely digested. His cultivation level had unknowingly reached the middle stage of the Golden Core.
This breakthrough was so sudden that he didn't even know when it happened.
Sensing his progress, City Lord Hua also revealed a strange expression. She circled around Cheng Hui a few times and said with a click of the tongue, "Boy, your cultivation is increasing at an exaggerated rate! I wasn't as powerful as you back then."
Cheng Hui had nothing to say and could only giggle.
This Yuanguang Secret Realm was provided to him by City Lord Hua, and he did not expect that he and the Yuanguang Secret Realm were so compatible.
After entering the secret realm, he began to absorb the energy inside. For three whole days, he stretched himself into a ball. When he left, the spiritual energy in the Yuanguang Secret Realm had become thinner, and he didn't know how many years it would take to recover.
He couldn't help but feel guilty when he thought of this incident...
A group of three people were walking casually on the street. Perhaps because she had not left the underworld for many years, City Lord Hua was very curious about many things. Even some small gadgets of ordinary people, as long as she liked them, she would buy them.
When dusk fell, the group returned satisfied. When they returned to the gate of their courtyard, they were stopped by Cheng Hui.
"What's wrong?" City Lord Hua asked vaguely with a bun in his mouth.
Cheng Hui frowned: "Someone is inside."
"Hmm?" City Lord Hua's eyes lit up and he swallowed the bun in two or three bites. "Someone stole something while we were away?"
Looking at her excited expression, the words "eager to try" are almost written on her face.
The corner of Cheng Hui's mouth twitched. "I don't know. I set up a magic circle in the courtyard when I left. Whoever it is must be trapped inside."
"Oh..." When he heard that the man couldn't even break out of Cheng Hui's magic circle, City Lord Hua immediately lost interest.
She didn't know Cheng Hui's level of magic array, but she felt that at Cheng Hui's age, being able to advance to the middle stage of the Golden Core was already an extraordinary talent, and it was unlikely that he would be distracted to study other miscellaneous matters.
Therefore, she felt that Cheng Hui's level was at best just using an ordinary formation plate.
The guy who couldn't even break out of an ordinary formation was obviously a rookie, maybe just an ordinary petty thief. She had no interest in teasing him at all.
"I'll leave that man to you to deal with." City Lord Hua yawned lazily: "I'm going back to sleep first." After saying that, he jumped in directly from the side of the courtyard wall.
"Wait..." Before Cheng Hui could finish his words, City Lord Hua's men disappeared.
Cheng Hui stared speechlessly at the spot where City Lord Hua disappeared, muttering, "At least wait for me to close the magic circle..."
Lin Qingyang chuckled. It turned out that the unreliability of this Lord Hua City was innate.
Cheng Hui reluctantly entered the magic circle and, following the incantation, soon found City Lord Hua, who was wandering around inside like a headless fly.
After leading the person out of the magic circle, Cheng Hui looked up and met those sparkling eyes, which immediately frightened him.
"What?" he asked warily.
City Lord Hua looked him up and down, as if getting to know him all over again: "I never expected that your formation would be so powerful that it could even trap me."
Cheng Hui was immediately stunned. What kind of nonsense is that? Is it difficult to trap the Golden Core? Even if you're a half-step Nascent Soul, as long as you haven't truly reached the Nascent Soul stage, you can't break through my formation.
After studying magic arrays for so many years, Cheng Hui still has some confidence. He has received the most orthodox magic array education, which can be said to be the essence of all magic array knowledge from tens of thousands of years ago. Coupled with the skills he learned later, the combination of the two has allowed him to embark on his own unique path of magic arrays.
Even a true master of formations might not be able to get away with it at his hands, let alone the half-baked City Lord Hua.
"Not bad, really good!" City Lord Hua sighed, and finally slapped Cheng Hui on the shoulder, acting like a good brother: "How about it? Are you interested in coming to my Luowu City after death? I can make you the deputy city lord."
Lin Qingyang slapped her hand away with a look of disgust, and said dissatisfiedly: "City Lord Hua, please be more reserved and don't hug other people's men casually."
Hua City Lord: ...
Cheng Hui was at a loss for words at first about City Lord Hua's proposal, and then felt extremely embarrassed by Lin Qingyang's words.
What other people’s men…don’t talk nonsense!
With his cheeks slightly red, he glared at Lin Qingyang, but unfortunately, this glare not only had no deterrent effect, but instead made Lin Qingyang feel quite irritated. He really wanted Cheng Hui to show a more embarrassed expression.
"Shut up!" Cheng Hui roared in a low voice.
"What?" Lin Qingyang looked at him with amusement.
"I tell you to stop thinking about that right now! Don't think about it anymore!" he said gritting his teeth.
Lin Qingyang raised his eyebrows and smiled playfully: "Do you know what I'm thinking?"
"I don't know!" Cheng Hui gritted his teeth and said angrily, "But I'm sure that what you're thinking about isn't good! Have you forgotten that there's a special connection between us? It's not obvious at ordinary times, but sometimes... That's enough! Stop thinking about it!"
Lin Qingyang laughed very happily. If Cheng Hui hadn't mentioned it, he almost forgot that the two of them were not ordinary friends or lovers, but a master and a corpse refined by a special contract.
Whether it is him or Cheng Hui, as long as they have a particularly strong thought, the other party can sense it. Even if the sense is not very clear, they can roughly guess it.
Lin Qingyang looked at Cheng Hui, who was looking embarrassed and angry, with the corners of his mouth curled up wildly. He seemed to have found a good way to make Cheng Hui fall in love with him.
As long as he keeps thinking about it, Cheng Hui will definitely be able to feel his urgent desire to get a status.
So far, the relationship between the two can only be considered as an ambiguous stage. Lin Qingyang will not feel at ease until it is not clarified.
Hua·Invisible Man·City Lord: ...I feel like I have no sense of existence...
“Ahem…”
Lord Hua coughed twice and was satisfied to see Cheng Hui's panicked expression and Lin Qingyang's disgusted look.
City Lord Hua smiled. That’s right. There’s no point in falling in love at such a young age. The real thing is to practice hard.
"Alright, both of you stop being so annoying in front of me. You guys figure out how to deal with the person in the magic circle. I think if we delay any longer, he'll be half dead, if not dead."
After saying that, City Lord Hua slowly returned to his room.
Only then did he remember that in addition to City Lord Hua, there were other people trapped in the magic circle.
After walking around, he found the unlucky guy who was trapped. City Lord Hua was right. If he had been a little later, this guy would have been in danger of his life.
The magic circle that Cheng Hui used to protect his nest was not actually very powerful, it was mainly a maze, but ever since he comprehended the rebound rune, he got used to adding one to the array plates he refined.
If you just carry it in the maze, at most you will be trapped, there will be no danger. But if you try to break the maze by force, the consequences...
When Cheng Hui found the unlucky guy, he was about to use a powerful move similar to the Heavenly Demon Disintegration Technique. If this move was used, whether Cheng Hui's magic circle could be preserved was another matter, but his life would definitely be over.
"Stop!" Cheng Hui was shocked and stopped him immediately.
He just wanted to teach the little thief a lesson, but he didn't intend to take his life. What's more, he was wearing the uniform of an inner disciple of the Tianlan Sword Sect. If he really died here, Cheng Hui would have no way to explain himself.
When the unlucky guy saw Cheng Hui appear, he was overjoyed and stabbed out with a sword.
Cheng Hui was startled and quickly fought back. After the two exchanged a move, the disciple of Tianlan Sword Sect immediately stopped.
"Is this fellow from the Corpse Puppet Sect?" The unlucky guy had a good eye and could see through Cheng Hui's martial arts style as soon as they started fighting.
Cheng Hui said angrily, "So what? What's wrong with you? Why are you so unreasonable and attacking so recklessly?"
The unlucky guy apologized, "I'm sorry, I didn't expect that I was just trying to test someone's background, but I ended up being trapped in this formation."
Cheng Hui blinked, uh...was I the one he wanted to test?
He gave the unlucky guy a strange look and said, "Who are you trying to find out?"
The unlucky guy was a little embarrassed: "He's my tenant. My mother rented out the yard next to our house. I happened to go home, and my mother told me that it seemed that a very powerful monk lived there, so I wanted to find out. I didn't expect that they were not at home when I came, so I thought..."
"I thought I'd go in and take a look when no one was home, but I didn't expect that even though they weren't at home, they had left a magic circle at home that trapped you, a disciple of the Tianlan Sword Sect?" Cheng Hui said speechlessly.
