"Heh, hoho, hohoho …" Zhu Yao awkwardly stroked the gigantic peapod. "These children … look really good!"
"Great Qian, you're overpraising me!" The girl said with a shy look. "This little girl simply pays more attention to drinking dew water."
I'm not praising you, hey!
"I hope Great Qian can give the children a name, so that we can enjoy some of your good fortune." The peapod father said with a sincere look.
"Ahem …" Zhu Yao straightened her expression, and said with a serious look. "Which boss?"
"This one!" The peapod mother pointed to the leftmost peapod. "It's the first one to bulge, and the ones next to it are the second, third, and fourth."
"Oh." Zhu Yao inspected that peapod seriously. She could not see any difference in the bulge at all. "It looks round and smooth, and is filled with vitality. Why don't we call it … Little Pea!"
Little Qian: "…"
The entire place was silent for a second.
"Great … Great Qian, then what about the ones next to it?" The peapod mother asked.
Zhu Yao glanced at the peapod, and pointed at them one by one. "Little Teaser … Big Teaser … Giant Teaser … Extra Teaser!"
"Grandma …" The corner of Little Qian's lips twitched.
"That's great!" The peapod father excitedly slapped his thigh. "As expected of the oldest dandelion in a radius of fifty kilometers. Thank you, Great Qian, for bestowing us with such a name."
The peapod mother looked as though she was about to cry from excitement. "Thank you, Great Qian, for giving my son such a nice sounding name."
"Hohoho …" Zhu Yao patted on their shoulders. "You two have good taste. There aren't many people in this world who can keep up with my taste, you know!" As expected, there were still people in this world who understood her taste. She had to tell her master about it when she returned.
"Little Pea, Big Pea, Giant Pea. Extra Pea, why aren't you coming out to thank Great Qian for bestowing us with a name? "The peapod mother said to the peapod.
Suddenly, the pea holder emitted out a white glow, and four rays of green light flew out from within, landing neatly next to Zhu Yao. In a blink of an eye, four fair and tender, chubby little shotas with bare buttocks appeared. They stood there.
"Thank you, grandma, for helping us break out of our shells." The four identical New Year Painting Dolls raised their little heads and thanked Zhu Yao.
"Good boys!" Zhu Yao waved at them.
New Year Painting Dolls. Only then did he pounce on his parents. The family of six seemed to be celebrating the New Year, and there was no need to mention how happy they were.
Her parents thanked her again and again. "Thank you, Tai Qian. If it weren't for you, who knows when my baby would have hatched?"
"Hehe, it's only right. It's my duty. "
The two of them thanked him profusely before bringing the four dolls home.
He glanced at the tasteful family. Suddenly, a question popped up in her mind. "Xiaoqian, does the bean clip need to have a name before it can hatch?"
She nodded. "It's not just Beanclip. All the monsters need to have a name before they can transform."
So the name was for transfiguration.
"Only old monsters. Only then did he have the ability to give names. That's why Young Master and his wife are so happy that Grandma can take out four names at once. "Xiao Qian said with a deadpan expression.
The corners of Zhu Yao's lips twitched. It's just picking a name, is it that hard? She looked down at the bean holder on the ground, which had been flattened because the child had broken out of its shell. She saw a faint flash of green light inside. She pried open the bean holder and pulled out a fist-sized bean from the rightmost position.
Did she … miss this?
"This is an abandoned seed." Xiao Qian glanced at the bean in her hands.
"What do you mean?"
Xiao Qian explained. "This is a seed that they abandoned."
"Abandoned?"
"Grandma, the Beanclip Race is different from my race. In every bean clip, there will be an abandoned seed that provides nutrients to the other beans, allowing the other children to grow. Abandoned seeds only have a body, and do not have a soul. This one is an abandoned seed."
Zhu Yao was startled. There was actually such a rule. "Then is this bean still alive?"
"Abandoned seeds don't have life." Xiao Qian said with certainty.
Zhu Yao frowned. But she could clearly sense the life within this bean. Was she imagining things?
— — — —
In the end, Zhu Yao still picked up the bean, and casually placed it in the wood-type spiritual energy gathering formation. Perhaps, it would grow up?
After settling everything, Zhu Yao began to meditate and cultivate as well. Although she did not know what bug she had to fix this time, with her current level of cultivation, even if she encountered a bug, she would most likely be crushed. Raising her cultivation was the way to go.
Right now, her master was not by her side, and this place did not look like the Divine Realm either. Only by raising her cultivation, would she have hope of finding her man.
She did not know why, but in this place she was currently at, although plants could all turn into spirits, the spiritual energy here was extremely thin, especially the wood spiritual energy. Even after laying down a spiritual energy gathering formation, the amount of wood spiritual energy that could be drawn in was still extremely limited.
After rising to the first level of Essence, she meditated for an entire night. Now that three days had passed, the amount of spiritual energy she had drawn in was barely enough for her to enter the second level. Zhu Yao, whose cultivation had never been this difficult, encountered her first Waterloo.
It seemed like she had to put in more effort.
She once again reinforced the surrounding spiritual energy gathering formation, bid farewell to Qianqianqian and the rest, and then went into closed-door training.
In order to draw in even more spiritual energy, she used her old method, which was to have the spiritual energy in her Dantian turn into a spiral shape, and spin in a single direction, allowing the inertia to bring in even more spiritual energy. As expected, this method was much better than blindly waiting for spiritual energy. The spiritual energy in her body slowly became abundant.
Time flowed by like water.
The amount of spiritual energy increased, and her cultivation rose little by little. Third level, fourth level, fifth level …
"Pea ~" Her chest suddenly suffered a heavy blow. Zhu Yao's breathing became unstable, and her old bones were almost shattered. When she opened her eyes, she saw a green ball tightly stuck to her chest.
The hell, which bastard threw a ball at her while she was meditating? Did he not know how to respect the old and cherish the young!?
"Pea …" That green ball suddenly moved, and let out a clear single word.
Zhu Yao was shocked, and had almost lost her grip on the ball. After taking a closer look, why did it look a little familiar?
"Pea ~" It called out once again.
Pea? Zhu Yao was startled. Only then did she recall that the pea she placed in the spiritual energy gathering formation. When she turned to look, as expected, it had disappeared.
It couldn't be, right? She had merely meditated, and it had already grown so big? Wasn't it a little too nutritious?
"Pea …" That gigantic pea lightly called out once again. Looking at its size, it was much bigger than the four peas in the pea earlier.
What should she do now?
Oh right, she had to give it a name. She could only take on a human form with a name.
"Kuh, I say, green pea. In the future, you'll be called Pea, alright?"
"Pea!" That pea resolutely replied.
"Pea pea."
…
Nothing happened.
The hell ~ What happened to the promise of taking on a human form after giving it a name? This didn't make sense. Could it be that her naming posture was wrong? Let's do it again.
"Pea clip?"
…
"Bean?"
…
"Tofu?"
…
"Joker?"
Alright then. There was no reaction at all. Clearly, they were both born from a pea, so why couldn't this one take on a human form?
Zhu Yao picked up the green pea ball. She flipped it left and right. Other than growing a little fatter, there wasn't much of a difference!
"Pea ~" It called out again, and then rolled into her embrace. As though it was tired, not even a moment later, it completely stopped moving. Slowly, it shrunk back to the size of a fist.
Zhu Yao faintly felt that something was amiss. However, her current cultivation was still too low, and she had yet to cultivate her divine sense. She was basically unable to investigate the pea's situation, so she could only give up and keep the pea. Just as she was about to inspect the formation. She continued to cultivate, she suddenly heard a few cries of shock from outside. She could even faintly hear the sounds of flustered footsteps.
"What happened?" She opened the door, and looked at Little Nqian who was running towards her. She looked too similar, so she couldn't tell them apart.
"Grandma, the Heavenly Fire, the Heavenly Fire is here!" The girl pointed to the sky with a flustered look.
Zhu Yao raised her head to look, only to see a sea of flames in the sky. A red formation was currently spinning in the sky, and with every passing second, the flames grew brighter.
A Fire Guiding Formation!
An elementary fire-type mystic art.
The formation wasn't big, but it was facing her house!
"Grandma, let's hurry and leave this place. The Heavenly Fire is about to burn down."
As expected, in the next moment, the flames descended from the sky, and flew straight towards her house.
The hell, it can't be, right? Her property, her boss account!
Zhu Yao was startled. She cast an art with her hands, and a formation formed. A triangular formation, in the instant the flames were about to reach, enveloped the top of the house. She had already lost her face, so she couldn't lose her property as well.
"Eh, there's actually a spiritual monster that knows mystic arts." A tender voice resounded in the sky.
A child dressed in an extremely exquisite outfit was currently standing on top of a feather mystic artifact, staring at her with a curious look. His two hands, which had just finished casting an art, had yet to be put down.
She knew where the Fire Guiding Formation came from. This devilish child!
"Hey, what kind of monster are you?" The devilish child pointed at her, and said with a smug look.
The corner of Zhu Yao's lips twitched. This little wimp looked to be around seven or eight years old. He actually dared to set fire to the forest at such a young age, he sure was a bear.
"I have never seen a spiritual monster that knows mystic arts. Tell me your name, and I'll take you in as my pet!" Little wimp rubbed his nose, and said with a benevolent tone.
Who wants to be your pet!?
Zhu Yao took a deep breath, and suppressed the anger in the depths of her heart. "Little friend, burning someone's house is wrong. Hurry and go home." Be careful, or I will spank your buttocks.
The child flew down from the sky, and said seriously. "If you become my pet, I'll go home! Although you're a little older … no, a lot older, as long as you run faster, you'll be fine. As long as you run faster, I won't despise you. "
The corner of Zhu Yao's lips twitched. How could there be such a child that needed a spanking?
"Hoho … I'm not going to be your pet." Spiritual monsters had their own pride as well!
Zhu Yao couldn't be bothered to bicker with him. This child was only at the fifth level of Essence, and that Fire Guiding Formation earlier consumed a lot of spiritual energy. She was not worried that he would do it again.
"Haah, wait a minute! I'm serious. "The child grew anxious, and chased after her.
Little Nqian seemed to be extremely afraid of him, and hurriedly leaned towards her out of fear. "Grandma."
"So you're called grandma!" Little wimp's face was filled with surprise. "I know now."
What do you know now? Zhu Yao turned around. He had already begun to cast an art, and a formation was instantly formed. At the center of the formation, there was even a faint contract inscription. She had seen this inscription once before, back then when her master had Sesame form a contract with her.
The hell, this little wimp wanted her to be his summoned beast. No wait, it was a summoned spirit.
