The Legendary Master’s Wife - Chap 119

Chapter 119: Fox Spirit

The next day, Ling Xiao simply put the sulky You XiaoMo over his shoulder and headed straight back to the Tian Xin Sect.

After being on the road for one whole day without any stops, You XiaoMo was only put down when they reached the foothills of the Tian Xin Sect. He felt that his stomach was clamoring with unease, but since he didn’t eat anything the whole day, there was nothing for him to throw up.

“Ling…” You XiaoMo wiped his mouth and opened it, wanting to question him.

Ling Xiao suddenly signaled him to keep quiet, his brows slightly raised, as if having discovered some problem.

Although You XiaoMo was not happy, he didn’t say anything more. He looked in all directions. The foothills of the Tian Xin Sect didn’t seemed any different from usual, ah, but maybe it was just that he hasn’t figured it out yet. He asked cautiously, “Ling-shixiong, is something wrong?”

Ling Xiao’s raised brows were now relaxed. Hearing his words, he nodded while laughing, “Someone is coming.”

Before he could ask anything, as if to give credence to his words, two figures suddenly appeared on the mountain top. One following the other, they rushed in their direction, arriving in front of them in no time. The younger one, after one look at Ling Xiao, lit up completely. With a few steps he dashed up to Ling Xiao and said excitedly, “Da Shixiong, you’re finally back.”

Ling Xiao smiled as he said, “The few days I wasn’t here, did something major happen in the Tian Xin Sect?”

This Shidi immediately nodded his head like a chick pecking rice, “I’m not sure about something major but Grandmaster instructed us to ask you to go see him immediately if we saw you coming back.”

“I understand. Thank you for letting me know.”

Ling Xiao smiled as he spoke. Just now he felt that the Tian Xin Sect’s surveillance seemed to be much tighter than it was before he left. Seemed like something major had happened otherwise, they wouldn’t be asking him to go over so urgently.

Saying that, he turned to You XiaoMo and said, “Xiao Shidi, let’s go.”

You XiaoMo was momentarily dazed and then quickly nodded, hurrying to catch up with his pace.

When the two of their backs disappeared on the only road at the foothills, the one that just was completely delighted upon seeing Ling Xiao put away the smile on his face. He looked with some resentment in the direction that they left.

“Li-shixiong. Why do you think Da Shixiong treats that You XiaoMo so well? What is so good about him?” That Li-shixiong, although he had never spoken a word to Ling Xiao before, he still took Ling Xiao as his idol, since very long ago. Furthermore, his fanboy behavior seemed to be growing.

Hearing his Shidi say that, he frowned. He himself didn’t understand, “Maybe that You XiaoMo cast some spell on Da Shixiong causing Da Shixiong to treat him especially well.”

Da Shixiong accompanying You XiaoMo down the mountain, when they found out about this matter, they didn’t really believe it because Da Shixiong very rarely went down the mountain with his fellow disciples. Even if he did, it would be one big group of people. This time, being so unusual, maybe You XiaoMo really used some dirty trick.

“That You XiaoMo. In my opinion, he may be the reincarnation of a fox spirit.” The Shidi spoke in a huff.

“Zhao-shidi. It’s better if you don’t say these things out loud so as to not let others hear you.” Li-shixiong warned him.

“I know, Li-shixiong.” Zhao-shidi answered unwillingly.

Naturally, You XiaoMo had no idea that because of Ling Xiao, he had been converted from a normal person to a fox spirit. Fanboys were so terrifying. They couldn’t sully their idols so they can only splash the dirty water on someone else.

Ling Xiao didn’t send him all the way to Capital Peak. The two of them parted ways at the fork in the road. Since it was the Tian Xin Sect’s domain, he wasn’t worried that You XiaoMo would be bullied and the like. After all, he was still Kong Wen’s direct disciple. If one didn’t do it for the monk’s sake, they still had to do it for Buddha’s sake.

After being away for a few days, You XiaoMo didn’t immediately go back to his room upon returning to Capital Peak. Instead he went looking for Fang ChenYue but to no avail. Then he found out from the other disciples that Da Shixiong and Second Shixiong were still at Yun Shui peak with Ye-shishu and would only back in a few days.

Then he also went to see Kong Wen. After all, he still had the nominal title of disciple hanging on him so naturally he had to give his greetings to his Shifu upon coming back, lest other people say that he didn’t respect his elders.

Kong Wen also didn’t feel it was strange. He didn’t ask where he and Ling Xiao went after going down the mountain, or what they did. He only asked a few routine questions before letting him go.

After coming out, You XiaoMo finally heaved a sigh of relief. Every time he went to see Kong Wen, he would feel significant pressure in his heart. As for why he didn’t ask, Ling Xiao said that day that he had arranged everything. Presumably he had also made up an excuse so he had nothing to worry about.

After returning to his room, You XiaoMo remembered that he already hadn’t refined magic pills for quite a few days. He wondered if his actions would be rusty.

But before that, he washed himself from head to tail once over, then had a lovely dinner before reading a book. Around night time from 9pm to 11pm, after making sure that no one would come look for him, he tidied his things and closed the door and windows tightly and entered his dimension.

These few days he was at the mercy of Ling Xiao. Every night he was hugged by Ling Xiao while sleeping so he didn’t go in and tidy the magic herbs these few days. Now, ninety percent of the magic herbs in magic herb fields were already mature, swaying in the wind.

Harvesting magic herbs was already something he was so used to that it was like driving a light carriage down a familiar road. He finished harvesting them all in under four hours. Then he planted more seeds again. Only this time he didn’t plant them all with level two and level three magic herb seeds. He left fifteen pieces to be planted with mid-level magic herbs.

After finishing sprinkling the seeds, he watered them with diluted spiritual water one by one. It was two hours later by the time he finished. It should soon be daylight outside. He drank a mouthful of spiritual water to chase away his fatigue. He went out once before starting to build his small wooden hut.

In the previous world, the university he was preparing to go to was most famous for its architecture department. At that time, the one he chose was that architecture department. Although he didn’t go study in the end, he still had some understanding of architecture. Small wooden huts like this was the most simple. After spending not too much time, and a period of hammering and banging, the small wooden hut took shape. Then he moved out the wooden racks and wooden barrels that he bought from HunJi City.

The wooden racks were divided into batches by him according to the level of the magic herbs. The wooden barrels were pushed together waiting to be used when needed. After doing all these things, half a day had passed.

You XiaoMo rest on the spot for a while and then walked into the small wooden hut. He poured out everything from the magic bag. Level eight demon beast egg, weapons, techniques, magic herbs, magic pills, seeds, magic pill recipes, snacks, magic fruits etc. Everything was neatly divided into categories and placed inside the small wooden hut. For now, he couldn’t use the mid-level magic herb seeds. Even if he wanted to plant them, he couldn’t use too many. So he kept the rest of them and stored them in the cupboard.

By the time he left the dimension, the sky was already bright outside.

Golden sunlight shined on his window, bathing his room, making it extremely bright.

Although he worked for almost a whole day, he was not tired. You XiaoMo took few books that he already finished reading from the bookshelf and ran towards the library. After exchanging them with books he hadn’t read, he changed course to the Hall of Magic Herbs.

The high spirited You XiaoMo had no idea that not long after he left his dimension, that demon beast egg that he put on the table suddenly emits intense white light. The white light sparkled endlessly then the spiritual energy surrounding the demon beast egg formed a vortex. The epicenter of the vortex was that demon beast egg. A huge amount of spiritual energy was sucked in by the demon beast egg right until it was almost unable to withstand it then the vortex stopped, returning to its original condition.

Hall of Magic Herbs.

You XiaoMo walked towards Zhao-shishu’s location as before. Unexpectedly, he found that the one sitting at the counter had turned into Fifth Shixiong Zhao DaZhou. But thinking of his relationship with Zhao-shishu, he felt that it wasn’t unexpected.

You XiaoMo took out a few bottles of magic pills from his magic bag. These were level two magic pills that he refined in advance. It was half of the one month portion that he got from Zhao-shishu before. He completed refining them in advance so he conveniently brought it over.

Seeing him, Zhao DaZhou frowned, “You-shidi, you already picked up this month’s portion of magic herbs. Unless you have merit points, I couldn’t give you anymore magic herbs.”

You XiaoMo smiled, not minding his tone. He simply hands over the few bottles of magic pills to him, “Zhao-shixiong, these are the magic pills I refined. Count and see.”

If it was Zhao-shishu who was here as usual, he wouldn’t count it because he believed that You XiaoMo didn’t dare to deceive him. Also, he had a hundred percent success rate, so even if there was a little less, it was nothing, because each time the other disciples handed over the magic pills, it was only thirty or forty percent. Some of them were even less than thirty percent. So, in comparison, You XiaoMo was indeed a lot better.

But Zhao DaZhou was not Zhao Zhen. He didn’t trust You XiaoMo so he started counting in front of him. By the time he finishes counting, his face finally changed.

Nine hundred stalks of magic herbs were enough for three hundred level two magic pills. If the success rate was a hundred percent, he had to hand over a hundred and fifty pills. As far as he knew, even Da Shixiong and Second Shixiong could hardly manage it. But this newly promoted level two mage, You XiaoMo, after not even a month could actually do it all successfully?

Right now, the bottles in his hand, added up altogether was exactly one hundred and fifty pills, not more not less!
