18th Generation Son-in-law - C231
In order to have a better mental state to prepare for the trials of the second day, Yao Yuan and Ling Xiangchen did not continue to travel at night. In any case, there were still quite a few people who had yet to come out from the first stage, giving themselves quite a bit of time to rest.
The next day, just as dawn broke, Yao Yuan woke up and stood up to stretch. It was only just five o’clock, and just as he was about to go out to gather firewood to make breakfast, he realized that Ling Xiangchen had already prepared everything.
Looking at Yao Yuan’s stupefied expression, Ling Xiangchen waved his hand and said: “It’s nothing. At home, it’s already become a habit to wake up at this time every single day. No matter what time you sleep, you must wake up at this hour on the next day, and you won’t be able to sleep at all.”
Yao Yuan really couldn’t imagine how his life had always been so casual. If it wasn’t because he was currently in Mount Li, Yao Yuan really didn’t know when he would wake up.
“Hurry up and pack up. Don’t be distracted. Today might be the true start of the test.”
After Ling Xiangchen finished speaking, he began the morning breathing exercises that he had to do everyday. As he breathed, it was as if the entire world’s spirit energy was revolving around him.
“He really lives like a god.”
This kind of scene did not dare for Liu Xinyue to see. If this girl saw Ling Xiangchen like this, who knows what kind of infatuation she would commit.
Withdrawing his mind, Yao Yuan used the Little Mi that he brought over to make some porridge. This was what he had prepared before he entered the Mount Li, after all, with Miao Ling here as a girl, he had to make more preparations.
However, after he added in the Hua Hua, as well as Ling Xiangchen, Yao Yuan didn’t dare guarantee how long the millet he brought along would last.
After less than an hour, the millet porridge had more or less been cooked. Miao Ling and the Hua Hua also awakened from their tent, and when the man and leopard walked out, they truly startled Ling Xiangchen who was resting at the side.
“Ling Xiangchen? Why are you here? ”
Miao Ling rubbed her eyes, not at all bothered by the fact that she had just woken up.
Ling Xiangchen had also recovered very quickly. He looked at Miao Ling and said: “Last night, I coincidentally met Mr. Yao Yuan Yao, so I wanted to walk together with you so that I could have a companion.”
This fellow, to think that his tone and attitude when talking to a girl had changed so much. He was indeed not a good person.
Yao Yuan looked at Ling Xiangchen disdainfully, then looked at Miao Ling and said: “Quickly go wash up and prepare to eat.”
This was also something that Yao Yuan had planned beforehand. After Miao Ling walked over, the Hua Hua had also followed.
“Why are you, a Leopard, going to wash up?”
Yao Yuan shouted loudly.
The Hua Hua turned around and looked at Yao Yuan disdainfully, and said: “Do you know what hygiene and cleanliness are?”
Being swallowed by a Leopard, Yao Yuan felt a little weird, but he couldn’t say anything. He could only smile awkwardly.
Behind him, Ling Xiangchen seemed to have realized something, he looked at Yao Yuan and said: “This is the Spiritual Beast you subdued?”
It looks like it really is the Spiritual Beast. The moment he saw the Hua Hua, Ling Xiangchen was able to recognize it, and it was indeed not simple.
“They’re following me, but I’m not the one who subdued them. Do you believe me?”
Yao Yuan didn’t know whether to laugh or cry, and said: “Yesterday, I just walked into a forest, and this guy directly appeared by my side, giving me a big fright. After that, I’ll just say that I was arranged by his parents, and if you want to follow me properly, there’s nothing I can do.”
When Ling Xiangchen heard this, he was also very surprised, but he quickly regained his composure and said, “This world is big, and is full of wonders. This might just be your luck, Mister Yao.”
Yao Yuan hurriedly waved his hand and said, “Don’t call me Mister Yao, it always sounds a little strange. It’s better if you call me Ah Yuan or Yao Yuan.”
When Miao Ling and the Hua Hua returned from the stream, Yao Yuan scooped up a bowl of porridge, but the Hua Hua looked at it proudly and did not even bother to look, it looked at Yao Yuan and said: “I am not eating these things, I am only absorbing the Spirit Qi.”
Yao Yuan helplessly poured the congee into the pot, looked at it and said: “If I don’t eat it, I don’t. I even saved a lot of money.”
After the few of them had eaten their fill, they resumed their journey. The moment they prepared to set off, they could also hear the sounds of people passing by behind them.
It was clear that no one had moved forward under the night sky. Everyone’s thoughts were to rest for the night.
At this time, at the peak of the Mount Li Mountain, Old Master Qi who had already finished resting sat back down on his teacher’s chair. He looked at the people below and asked: “What’s the situation now?”
“There are already more than ten people who have walked out from the first stage. After a night’s rest, they have started to slowly walk towards the mountainside. I have already arranged for people to enter the second stage.”
“Then what about Yao Yuan?”
The focus of Old Master Qi was still on Yao Yuan.
“We have already returned from the back of the Mount Li to the front, and are now standing together with Ling Xiangchen, who was the first person who passed the first stage.”
“Not bad, not bad.”
Old Master Qi laughed out loud. “Let me see what they are doing now.”
The middle-aged man agreed as he moved the crystal ball nonstop. Finally, he saw Yao Yuan and the others.
“This is …”
The Old Master Qi seemed to be deep in thought and did not speak for a long time.
“The child who stayed?”
The Old Master Qi slowly said.
The middle-aged man nodded, and said to Old Master Qi in a low voice: “It’s better not to interfere with that child’s business, just let him be.”
Who knew that Old Master Qi’s face would reveal a very strange expression. Finally, the corner of his mouth rose and he began to slowly smile.
“Not bad, not bad, that Yao Yuan brat really surprises me, I really want to know how many secrets he’s hiding.”
“Should I inform that lord?”
The middle-aged man said carefully.
“There’s no need. Since its children are walking together with Yao Yuan, perhaps this is the fate that was arranged for them. We must definitely be well aware of this and not forcefully interfere.”
Old Master Qi smiled slightly.
Yao Yuan had the nagging feeling that someone was looking at him. Halfway there, he couldn’t help but sneeze and mutter to himself, “Who exactly is thinking of me?”
However at this moment, Yao Yuan suddenly saw something.
Because their walking speed was about the same, and no one could borrow the spirit energy from the Mount Li to make themselves walk even faster, and everyone’s walking speed was normal, Yao Yuan had a nagging feeling that he seemed to have felt Chen Si’s aura.
“Miao Ling, do you feel that Chen Si is right around us?”
Yao Yuan quickly stopped Miao Ling and said cautiously.
“Is that so?”
Miao Ling stopped and looked around, trying to find the person she had been trying to find.
“There it is!”
Yao Yuan seemed to have seen it.
