Chapter 382: Chapter 382 Xiao Qing Leaves
Ye.
Jiang Tian One.
All the cultivators in Ling City couldn’t help but feel puzzled as Yun Feiyang had organized two gatherings for the cultivators within just one week.
With Yun Feiyang’s influence, a single command was all it took to rally at least ninety percent of Ling City’s cultivators.
No one wanted to offend Yun Feiyang over a trivial matter. Besides, regular etings among cultivators served to foster relations, so why not participate?
Li Xiaoyao had just returned ho when he received an invitation with Yun Feiyang’s na on it.
Li Xiaoyao was unfamiliar with this na and cast the invitation aside after a re glance.
As far as he was concerned, such gatherings for cultivators were re formalities, devoid of any real purpose. He’d be better off spending that ti on cultivation.
“Co up.”
Little Qing’s voice echoed in his mind, and after greeting the ladies, Li Xiaoyao headed upstairs.
The ladies were already suspecting Little Qing’s identity. Despite their frequent questioning, Li Xiaoyao offered no explanation. Even if Little Qing had so unspeakable relationship with Li Xiaoyao, they seed to have no choice but acceptance.
“Knock knock knock.” After knocking, Li Xiaoyao pushed the door open and saw Little Qing sitting in front of the vanity, looking at herself in the mirror and thinking to himself, What a vain woman.
Li Xiaoyao walked over and asked, “What did you want to see about?”
Without even lifting her head, Little Qing replied in a cool voice, “I’ll be leaving for a while, and I’m leaving her in your protection.”
“Leaving? Where to?” Li Xiaoyao was baffled. You’re supposed to be my guardian deity, what am I supposed to do if you leave?
A cold light flashed in Little Qing’s beautiful, narrow eyes, causing the room’s temperature to drop noticeably.
“I’m going to find my sister.”
Li Xiaoyao asked in surprise, “To find your sister? Bai Suzhen?”
“Mhm.” As Little Qing stood up from the table, a green snake erged from her sleeve, perching on her shoulder and staring at Li Xiaoyao as it said, “Take good care of her. If anything goes wrong, I will hold you accountable.”
Li Xiaoyao replied with a wry smile, “Miss Little Qing, you think too highly of . Don’t you know how many people I’ve offended by now? I’m like a clay Bodhisattva crossing the river—hardly able to save myself.”
“That’s your problem.” Little Qing didn’t seem worried about any trouble that might occur due to leaving her physical body with Li Xiaoyao, or perhaps she judged her current quest to be more urgent and couldn’t afford to consider other matters.
“But…” Li Xiaoyao tried to haggle for so benefits from her. However, the green snake had already vanished from the room with a flicker.
Li Xiaoyao heaved sighs alone, occasionally glancing at the sowhat vacant-looking Little Qing, feeling utterly speechless.
Little Qing hadn’t gone into detail, but Li Xiaoyao could guess that her body and soul were experiencing so resistance against each other. Otherwise, with her Three Souls and Seven Spirits intact, why would her body and soul be incompatible?
Now that this body had only one soul and three spirits left, making her as intelligent as a seven or eight-year-old child, Little Qing seed unconcerned. She simply announced she was going to find her sister and then left her in his care.
Was he supposed to take this burden with him wherever he went from now on? That would be far too troubleso.
“Um, Miss Little Qing,” Li Xiaoyao looked at Little Qing and tentatively called out to her.
Little Qing blinked her big eyes, her red lips slightly parted as she asked in a cute voice, “Are you talking to ?”
Uh…
“Do you not recognize ?”
Little Qing shook her head, and Li Xiaoyao felt a sense of relief. After all, it was normal for soone with the intelligence of a seven or eight-year-old to be forgetful.
Li Xiaoyao walked in front of her and gently touched her hair with his right hand, displaying a kind and gentle smile as he said, “My na is Li Xiaoyao. You can call Big Brother Li, or Brother Xiaoyao, whichever you prefer. Got it?”
“Yeah.” Xiao Qing nodded vigorously, her delicate face full of seriousness. She suddenly touched her stomach and said, “Brother Xiaoyao, I’m hungry.”
“Hungry?” Li Xiaoyao took out a pill from his storage ring and said, “Eat this.”
Xiao Qing snatched it and stuffed it into her mouth. Li Xiaoyao’s phone in his pocket rang. It was Cheng Dongliang calling.
“Cheng Lao, what’s up?” Li Xiaoyao asked, keeping an eye on Xiao Qing.
Cheng Dongliang asked, “Did you receive the invitation?”
“Invitation?” Li Xiaoyao was stunned for a few seconds before he rembered the invitation he had left on the table when he got back. “The one from Yun Feiyang?”
“Mhm.” Cheng Dongliang said, “Looks like you got it.”
Li Xiaoyao asked, “Who’s Yun Feiyang?”
“The number one cultivator in Ling City.”
“That powerful?” Li Xiaoyao was shocked by the imposing title.
“I can only say he’s relatively powerful.” Cheng Dongliang explained, “I won’t be attending the gathering tonight, but you can go take a look. After all, an occasion like tonight’s, where all cultivators gather together, is quite rare.”
“Okay, I’ll check it out if I have ti.”
Cheng Dongliang said, “If you’re free this week, I’ll send soone to pick you up.”
“Pick up? What for?”
“You’ve got quite a forgetful nature!” Cheng Dongliang feigned annoyance, “Have you forgotten about your promise to train those kids at the military district?”
“If you hadn’t ntioned it, I would have really forgotten.” Li Xiaoyao said, “I’m free this week, so you can co get .”
After hanging up the phone, Li Xiaoyao saw Xiao Qing curiously walk over to the vanity, grab a lipstick, and start to put it in her mouth.
Li Xiaoyao rushed over and snatched the lipstick from her hand, saying, “Little Miss, you can’t eat this.”
Xiao Qing pouted her lips and said, “I’m hungry.”
Li Xiaoyao dumped out the contents of the storage ring, grabbed a Lingzhi mushroom and threw it to her, just to see Xiao Qing take it and start nibbling away. The Lingzhi mushroom, as hard as iron, was easily devoured by Xiao Qing, the look of bliss on her face rendering Li Xiaoyao speechless for a while.
Worthy of a demon beast’s constitution, probably even real steel couldn’t withstand her bite.
Fortunately, this Xiao Qing posed no threat to Li Xiaoyao, and he didn’t need to be as cautious around her as he was with the Green Snake.
But he did need to arrange an identity for her; otherwise, he really wouldn’t be able to get by during this ti.
Just imagine, wherever Li Xiaoyao went, he would have to bring Xiao Qing along, and she’d say “I’m hungry” every few minutes. How was he supposed to live like that?
After much thought, Li Xiaoyao still couldn’t co up with a good solution, but leaving her at ho alone definitely wasn’t safe.
“Xiaoyao!”
Zhu Xiaoyue’s voice ca from outside, and with a sweep of his thoughts, the various won standing outside with diverse expressions instantly appeared before his eyes.
“What’s up?”
“You haven’t co down for ages; we thought you were dead,” Zhu Xiaoyue said irritably.
Li Xiaoyao was speechless, knowing that the won must have imagined sothing had happened between him and Xiao Qing after not coming down for so long.
Li Xiaoyao really wanted to shout, “Do I look that much like a pervert?”
