Chapter 61 Chaos (3)
"What kind of fortune?" Ji Rong asked, feigning curiosity.
"There's hope!" Jiao Jue thought to himself.
He immediately said, "I am on good terms with Lord Long Jun of the Kunlun Golden Cauldron Palace's Chariot and Cavalry Division. How about I have him recommend you for a position at the Kunlun Golden Cauldron Palace?"
Have you heard of Qingluan? She's the one Lord Longjun introduced to the Kunlun Golden Cauldron Palace.
"Oh, is that so? Then I won't go." Ji Rong said, turning her head and walking forward without looking back.
Jiao Jue was left standing alone on the coastline, stunned by the rejection and still unable to believe it. It took him a long time to catch up with him.
Jiaojue asked persistently, "It's the Kunlun Golden Cauldron Palace, isn't that the place you birds yearn for most? Are you a wild bird and don't know how wonderful it is?"
Looking at the isolated sky, Ji Rong felt that there was nothing wrong with telling the truth. She rolled her eyes at Jiao Jue and replied, "I have food and drink, and I'm doing just fine here. Why would I want to go to the God's palace to be a slave?"
Jiaojue was speechless. He felt he was being alluded to, but he didn't want to say anything.
"But if you go to the Golden Cauldron Palace, you will obtain cultivation techniques and supplies for cultivation. Do you know what the celestial maidens of Kunlun use to bathe?"
Jiao Jue blocked Ji Rong's path and said, "They use the second-best celestial spring water to wash."
The three bottles of top-grade immortal spring water you drank earlier were collected for me by a celestial maiden I was on good terms with.
Upon hearing this, Ji Rong paused, then raised her head and continued walking forward.
She was somewhat tempted, but not much.
It was easy to tell her that the celestial maidens who could bathe in the celestial spring were of a higher rank, and it was absolutely impossible for someone like her, who had only just entered the realm, to be eligible.
This dragon thinks it can fool her? No way!
Jiaojue panicked and slammed his claws heavily on the ground, creating a deep crack and draining the little spiritual energy he had left.
He quickly took out a pill and swallowed it, feeling a pang of regret for the three large bottles of jade liquid he had just given to Ji Rong.
Blocked, Ji Rong became even calmer. She retorted, "The witch healed your wounds, so why did you hurt her? When I went to see her before, she was lying down and couldn't get up. You're a wicked dragon, I'm not taking you out."
Jiaojue was furious after hearing this. He ate his food and then called him bad. This little bird monster was really too wicked!
Jiao Jue exhaled heavily for a few breaths and laughed, "That guy dared to cut my flesh, wouldn't you be furious if you were in his shoes?"
"If this place weren't devoid of spiritual energy, I would have beaten her to death somewhere else!"
“I don’t smoke.” Ji Rong shook her head and said, “The first time we came here, she cut off her own flesh to treat our wounds. Your flesh was rotting. If she didn’t cut it off, how could she apply medicine?”
Upon hearing this, Jiaojue immediately turned to look at its tail, and sure enough, it was rotten.
"No wonder it hurt so much when I was in the water," Jiao Jue thought, squinting and frowning.
"Didn't you notice? Passing that seal will drain the spiritual energy from our bodies and accelerate our aging."
“So things from the outside generally can’t get in.” Ji Rong stared at the horn and said, “You wanted to kill me the first time you saw me, didn’t you?”
That ball of light told you to follow me.
Let me guess, you couldn't stay where you were before, right?
“You know it, and you still believe in it.” Ji Rong continued, regardless of whether Jiao Jue answered or not, “So why did you go out? This place is fine except for the lack of spiritual energy.”
"You have such wonderful things as the Immortal Spring Jade Elixir, and you don't have to worry about making a living, so why don't you stay here for now?"
"Hiding here for a while to avoid the pursuit of the Heavenly Fate Palace is quite good," Jiao Jue thought with narrowed eyes. "Let's spare this little dead bird for now, and eat it when we get out."
But he doesn't want to be with the ancient witch giants!
Ji Rong continued, "Do you prefer to live in the sea or on land? If you live in the sea, you can find a place to stay yourself. If you live on land, I will have Wu Yue build it for you, but you will have to pay him."
"Who is Wu Yue? The ancient Wu clan?" Jiao Jue asked, squinting.
"He's the one with an extra eye on his forehead, who walks shakily and looks like he's about to die." After saying that, Ji Rong flew up into the sky and gestured, saying, "He's this tall. You should have seen him when you injured the Queen of the Witches."
Jiao Jue understood. In fact, when he was drawing the magic witch's blood, he discovered that the ancient witch giants here were not as powerful as his mother had said. In fact, they were all show and no substance, and very fragile. However, he could not overcome his physical fear.
Jiaojue finally decided to live on the shore. His tail hurt, so he chose a tall tree and hung himself on it.
Seeing that he was hanging from the tree, Ji Rong made a mocking noise at Jiao Jue without any politeness, which made Jiao Jue so angry that he could no longer control himself. His dragon roar blew and sent Ji Rong sprawling on his back.
Once the wind stopped, Ji Rong, whose fur was now curly, asked Jiao Jue for rent and medical expenses.
She said, "You injured the witch, and you still have to wait for the witch to treat your injury, so you have to pay extra."
After saying that, Ji Rong stretched out a wing towards him and said, "Do you have any elixirs? Give me some, the witch loves elixirs the most."
The golden face of the horned jade, tinged with black, spat out a small box.
Ji Rong opened it and her pupils dilated instantly. She was rich! All of them were top-grade spiritual herbs!
She accepted the small box of top-grade spiritual herbs from Jiaojue and flew off to find Wuyue with cheerful steps.
She casually took three from the box and gave them to Wu Yue, asking him to reinforce the tree where Jiao Jue lived with three giant logs.
The witch was also instructed to quickly treat the wealthy dragon's wounds after she recovered, and it was stated that she would receive further benefits after it was healed.
Upon receiving the elixir, Wu Yue and Tuan Wu immediately felt that this dragon was quite magnanimous. If it had a bad temper, so be it. It wouldn't matter if it stayed. At worst, they could just tell their people not to come here in the future.
After taking the bottle, Gu Qingqing ran to a secluded spot, opened the bottle, and took a small sip herself.
Abundant spiritual energy spread through her intestines along with the jade liquid, giving her a jolt of energy.
Gu Qingqing took a small bottle, poured a drop of jade liquid into it, and handed the bottle to the witch, saying that it was a healing jade liquid given by the dragon, an excellent spiritual medicine that she had never used before.
The witch excitedly accepted it, thinking that she would finally understand the knowledge that didn't match up in the ancestral books.
After delivering the jade liquid to the sorceress, Gu Qingqing hid away again.
She took out an empty bottle, poured a small amount into it, sealed it, and headed to her cave.
She and Ji Zhuang hadn't had a proper meal lately, and now that they had this jade liquid, Gu Qingqing just wanted him to have some too.
Who knows, maybe Ji Zhuang's madness has improved?
——————
Originally, after Gu Qingqing and Ji Rong left, Ji Zhuang was about to chase after them, but he was tripped up by the suddenly "alive" "Feng Qing" as soon as he spread his wings.
He looked down at "Feng Qing" in confusion, staring at it blankly.
"Gu Qingqing just left, so who is this Feng Qing?" Ji Zhuang pondered, his already confused mind becoming even more muddled.
"Who are you?" Ji Zhuang asked blankly, looking down at "Feng Qing".
Feng Qing did not answer. Layers of Gu worms swarmed on its fur, and the Gu worms died as soon as they fell to the ground.
Seeing the fallen Gu worms, Ji Zhuang's empty stomach rumbled loudly. He instinctively wanted to eat them, so he did just that.
Back in her cave, Gu Qingqing glanced through the window and saw "Feng Qing" standing and Ji Zhuang lying on the ground.
The "resurrected" puppet beast and the fallen relatives and friends once again irritated Gu Qingqing.
She quickly leaped onto the window, her four tails moving in unison. Three of them lashed out in succession, slamming "Feng Qing" into the wall of the cave. With the other tail, she grabbed Ji Zhuang and raced towards the small island where the witch lived.
Gu Qingqing spared no effort in using her spiritual power, pouring the jade liquid from the small bottle into her mouth as she ran, moving as fast as lightning.
Once they arrived on the island, Gu Qingqing, still shaken, looked around and, finding nothing amiss, put Ji Zhuang down.
I turned him over and examined him carefully. He was unharmed, but he was poisoned. Moreover, the way the poison was acting up looked very familiar, much like the poison from the Gu worms I used to raise.
