Li Long stared at the three True Spirit Pellets, his heart moved greatly. The value of True Spirit Pellets to Qi Practitioners was self-evident. With these three True Spirit Pellets in his hands, he would definitely be able to successfully build his foundation and take over the position of the head of Agriculture. However, he took in a deep breath and didn't reach out his hand to receive them.
"I don't deserve it."
"You've helped me kill an enemy. That's your merit. Don't be so wishy-washy. I told you to take it, so take it!" Li Qingshan shoved the True Spirit pill into Li Long's hand.
"I will take good care of this child."
Li Qingshan smiled and said, "That's your problem."
Li Long clasped his hands and took his leave. Arriving outside the Parlour of Clouds and Rain, he crouched down and said to Pebble, "From today onwards, you'll be called Li Xiaoyao. It's a very good name."
"I don't want it! He doesn't recognize me, so why should he change my name? "
"Sigh, you are still young, but there are some things that you will understand in the future. By the way, don't mention your relationship to anyone. "
"He doesn't recognize me, and I don't recognize him! Uncle Li, you treat me well. I'll listen to you. If you want me to be called Li Xiaoyao, I'll be called Li Xiaoyao! "
"You'll have to call me Master from now on," Li Long smiled and patted his little head. "Come, let's go eat something, and then I'll give you a bath."
"Yes, Master!"
Two figures, one big and one small, blended into the crowd. "Xiao Yao, do you like farming?" "What do you mean?" "It's farming." "I don't like it!" "Alright, then what do you like?" "I like herding cows, but Old Huang is dead, so I can't do it anymore. I also like to play with swords, but my sword is gone, so I can't do it anymore. "
"I'd better buy you a sword!"
…
In the warm room, Li Qingshan stood there for a while and sighed softly. Although he never lacked decisiveness, he was not a heartless person. The sound of light footsteps came from behind him, and a soft and delicate body came up to him and wrapped around his waist. "We've finished talking. Why aren't you going back?! "
Li Qingshan said, "Linglong, do you think you're lucky or unlucky to have met me?"
"Of course it's a great fortune! If it wasn't for you, my lord. Ling Long is still an ordinary disciple. She might even be forced to sell her body. "
A year ago, Li Qingshan formally took over the Parlour of Clouds and Rain in order to provide the Cloudwisp association with another source of income. All the disciples of the Sect of Clouds and Rain had come to see him, so he obviously did not have the time to manage the Parlour of Clouds and Rain. He needed an agent.
Thus, he chose one disciple from the crowd. It was Ling Long. Her cultivation level was mediocre. At that time, she was only in the sixth layer of the Aura Refining realm. The reason he chose her was actually quite random. While the other female disciples held their heads high and puffed out their chests, trying their best to show off their charm, she was the only one under his gaze. She lowered her head, revealing a bashful expression. At that moment, her graceful bearing was extremely alluring.
Ling Long still clearly remembered the situation at that time. He smiled and asked, "What's your name?"
"Linglong."
"From today onwards, you are the sect master of the Sect of Clouds and Rain."
"Ah!?"
Thus, her fate underwent a complete change. The biggest change was that she had a man. From the moment he chose her as the Sect Master, in everyone's eyes, she had already become his exclusive property. Even she herself thought so.
She was the sect master with the weakest cultivation in all of history, yet not a single person dared to disobey her. Her haughty senior brothers and sisters in the past all lowered their heads obediently. Even the extremely powerful Foundation Establishment cultivators treated her politely when they arrived in the Parlour of Clouds and Rain. With her beauty, she adapted to her new identity very quickly. She managed the Sect of Clouds and Rain in an orderly manner.
Li Qingshan pulled her in front of him and pinched her cheek. He smiled. "Isn't it the same right now?"
"Ling Long is willing, so how can it be the same?"
"I hope you don't regret it in the future!"
Li Qingshan's words made Ling Long stiffen, but she immediately dismissed it. Li Qingshan's reputation was like the midday sun. Let alone the Clear River prefecture, he was renowned even across the entire Ruyi commandery. He also had the Chan Monastery of Deva-Nāga, one of the three great sects of the Green province, as his backing. Just who could do anything to him?
"Ling Long definitely won't regret it."
"Let's go. Let's go back and see how young master Hua is drinking and whether he's happy or not!" Li Qingshan smiled and said nothing more.
As soon as they returned to the top floor, Hwa Seung-zan grabbed him. "Where did you go? Don't tell me you've gone off to have some fun? Come and drink! "
Li Qingshan accepted the cup of alcohol he passed over and gazed at his peerlessly handsome, smiling face. Suddenly, he asked, "Was it useful?"
Hwa Seung-zan was taken aback. A hint of bitterness appeared in his smile. "It doesn't seem to be useful!"
In the past year, Hwa Seung-zan had changed quite a lot. He had gone from the infatuated man of the past to a dissolute man who spent his time in a luxurious brothel drunk.
"Why are you still drinking if it's useless?"
In Li Qingshan's eyes, Hwa Seung-zan was basically like a young girl who had failed in a relationship, so he went to a bar to get drunk and degenerate. He was not prejudiced against going to bed after drinking, but he believed that when Hwa Seung-zan woke up drunk and saw an unfamiliar woman beside him, he would definitely not be as happy as a regular man. He would probably even feel the pain of being defiled.
"What else can I do?" Hwa Seung-zan laughed drunkenly. When he made up his mind to let go, he felt relief at the very beginning, but he soon felt even deeper pain and conflict. Without the sword of wisdom, it was difficult to sever the threads of love!
Smack!
A crisp slap landed on Hwa Seung-zan's face. Immediately, the Parlour of Clouds and Rain fell silent. Everyone stared at Li Qingshan blankly. They never thought he would suddenly slap his good friend.
"Big brother Li!" Hua Chenglu cried out involuntarily. Han Tieyi stood up. His expression changed as well. Ever since he was young, Hwa Seung-zan had never been humiliated like this.
Li Qingshan said, "Wake up, big brother. Haven't I been rejected all the same?"
Hwa Seung-zan was vexed at first before breaking into a self-deprecating smile. He touched the palm print on his face. "I'm different from you. Although you're more powerful than me in every aspect, you have absolutely no idea what love is. I can't obtain her, but I can't not love her!"
Smack!
Without saying anything else, Li Qingshan slapped him again. "You've said that in front of so many people. Even my teeth are sore. This is a slap filled with friendship. You better get a good taste of it. Heh, I've wanted to do that a long time ago! "
Han Tieyi bellowed, "Qingshan, stop!"
Li Qingshan grabbed Hwa Seung-zan and rushed into the air, turning into a tiny, black speck in the blink of an eye.
"Where are you taking me?" Hwa Seung-zan asked in surprise. The fierce wind whistled past, leaving the prefectural city behind. They rapidly shrank and travelled further away.
"To treat your illness!"
Immediately, a great swamp appeared on the horizon. Under the illumination of the silver moon, the ripples shimmered. Hwa Seung-zan squinted his eyes. "The Lake of Dragons and Snakes!"
"Let's wake up first!"
Li Qingshan suddenly descended and pushed Hwa Seung-zan into the water. The waves surged, creating a ditch on the surface of the lake. He entered the Hundred Schools of Thought while maintaining this posture, arriving on the school of Medicine's Benevolence Island.
Hwa Seung-zan could not help but be carried around by him. "Why did you bring me here?" Was the school of Medicine supposed to be able to treat his illness?
Bang! Bang!
Bang! Li Qingshan knocked on a door, and it opened. Ru Xin walked out in her white clothes. Over the past year, she had practised the Heavenly Tome of Cloud Furnace diligently, so her skin was as smooth as white jade. Her dark eyes seemed like they were painted. She glanced at the drenched Hwa Seung-zan first before saying to Li Qingshan in disdain, "You're finally going to lay your hands on a man!"
"Wrong. I don't like men, so can you help me out?" Li Qingshan said. Hwa Seung-zan was uneasy inside. He had no idea why Li Qingshan wanted to bring him to see Ru Xin. He was extremely clever, but Li Qingshan could not be understood using common sense. After all, he was a daemon who did whatever he wanted.
"What is it?"
Li Qingshan smiled. "Castrate him!"
"No! Li Qingshan, you're crazy! "Hwa Seung-zan struggled violently. But how could he fight against Li Qingshan's divine strength? He could not even muster a bit of spiritual power.
"It's just a woman. Let's see how you can love her after you become a eunuch! It's fine if you don't want to be a eunuch. Don't be afraid. Master Ru's medical skills are superb. He can even turn you into a woman. "
Ru Xin smiled. "I can give it a try! With your beauty, you will definitely be a peerless beauty if you become a woman. "
"I don't want to become a woman!"
Li Qingshan said, "Then become a eunuch!"
"No way!"
Ru Xin said, "You can also become a hermaphrodite!"
"I don't want to become anything. Qingshan, calm down. This is my own business. It has nothing to do with you!" The conversation between the two of them completely woke up Hwa Seung-zan from his drunken stupor. The water on his body had not dried yet, but he was already covered in a layer of cold sweat.
"I just can't stand your cowardly look. You've already come this far. Do you still have a choice?"
Li Qingshan smiled mischievously. He carried Hwa Seung-zan into the room and threw him on the ground. He then asked Ru Xin, "How's your cultivation of the Water of Oblivion?"
"After my re-cultivation, the effect should be quite good. But I haven't found a suitable test subject. After all, it's meant for cultivators." Ru Xin showed a distressed expression.
Hwa Seung-zan felt that the restriction on his body had been lifted. He stood up and was about to rush out of the door. Hearing this, he stopped and asked, "Water of Oblivion?"
Ru Xin smiled. "It's a type of potion that can make people forget certain things. Are you willing to try it, Brother Hua?"
For the past year, apart from cultivation, she had been cultivating and making potions. In order to recall more of his past life's memories, Chu Tian, who was now Lin Xuan, asked her to make a stronger potion.
In the Book of Nature, the Heavenly Book of Cloud Furnace was the best in the art of alchemy. Ru Xin was considered a genius in this field. With Lin Xuan's help in improving the formula, the potion's effect was getting stronger and stronger. At the same time, she also made a stronger version of the Water of Oblivion.
Hwa Seung-zan looked at Li Qingshan who was blocking the door and smiled bitterly. "It seems like I have no other choice!"
Li Qingshan said, "If you don't want to, you can castrate me!"
Hwa Seung-zan turned around and asked Ru Xin, "This Water of Oblivion … Is it really effective?"
"It requires your active cooperation. If you reject the effects of the medicine and insist on remembering it, the effects will be much worse!" Ru Xin took out a bottle of faint, purple potion and swirled it gently in her hand.
Li Qingshan's heart skipped a beat. He glanced at her and frowned. "If you need to remember it, then remember it. Why do you have to forget it?"
Ru Xin was still unwilling to confess everything, but Li Qingshan knew she held great hatred. She refused to talk about it because the enemy was extremely powerful. Even with North Moon's strength, he would still be in danger, which was why she refused to involve him. However, Li Qingshan had already made up his mind a long time ago. No matter when she wanted to go to the Mist province, he would definitely accompany her and help her make a decision.
"Who asked a wretched daemon like you to stick your nose in other people's business?" Ru Xin rolled her eyes at him.
"I want to stick my nose in other people's business. What can you do about it?"
"You …" How could Hwa Seung-zan not understand? Ru Xin clearly recognised North Moon.
"Cut the crap. Are you going to drink it or not?"
Hwa Seung-zan made up his mind. "I'll drink it!"
