Chapter 361
byChapter 361: Lure
Seeing that the three beasts were all well, Ji Yang prepared to plant the remaining spiritual grains across the entire Jingtan Peak.
Although these were only mid-level spiritual grains, they should mature a little faster. Once the first batch of top-quality spiritual grains successfully grew, there would be no need to plant any more mid-level ones.
While Ji Yang was busy, Ren Yuning noticed Little Black lying in front of the wooden house, and her thoughts stirred.
That True Dragon appeared quite proud; he might not succumb to her temptations. The Xuanwu had a past with her on the spiritual boat, making him difficult to persuade.
But this spiritual beast, resembling an earth dog, was her best target.
Ren Yuning slowly approached Little Black.
Little Black also sensed her presence, slightly opening his eyes while lying on the ground.
However, upon seeing that it was Ren Yuning, he quickly closed them again.
In his eyes, Ren Yuning posed little threat.
Besides, this was his turf.
Before Little Black could fall back asleep, a faint aroma in the air made him sniff the air with his nose and then open his eyes again.
In his line of sight, Ren Yuning wore a friendly smile, holding a pill that radiated abundant spiritual energy!
This pill was not an ordinary one; it was a high-level pill specifically used to nourish spiritual beasts, called the Water Rhythm Pill.
Among the ingredients for refining this pill was a type of spiritual plant that could attract most spiritual beasts, making it impossible for them to resist its allure.
Seeing Little Black drawn in by the fragrance of the Water Rhythm Pill, Ren Yuning felt quite pleased.
What was the Yun Ling Dan compared to this!
But before Ren Yuning could celebrate, she watched as Little Black, who had just opened his eyes, closed them again, this time lying down in a different direction.
This caused a momentary pause in Ren Yuning’s expression.
At that moment, Little Black kept his eyes closed but let out a soft huff in his heart.
This woman looked like she had bad intentions, enticing him with a pill.
Did she think one measly pill could make him make a mistake?
Was he that kind of dog?
Ren Yuning frowned slightly, but recalling Little Black’s earlier actions, her eyes brightened.
She initially thought this pill had no effect on the spiritual beast, but when he caught a whiff of the fragrance, he opened his eyes and even changed positions, indicating that the pill in her hand did indeed have some effect.
This discovery brought a smug look back to Ren Yuning’s face.
Seeing Little Black with his eyes tightly closed, Ren Yuning moved closer and took a few more pills from her storage bag.
Little Black’s nose twitched, but he still didn’t open his eyes.
Seeing this scene, Ren Yuning smiled slightly, as it seemed her assumptions were indeed correct.
"You’re called Little Black, right?"
Ren Yuning asked softly.
Little Black opened his eyes and shot her a disdainful glance.
Ren Yuning acted as if she didn’t see Little Black and simply waved the Water Rhythm Pill in her hand, enticingly saying,
"Want to have some?"
"I have plenty of these pills! If you help me with one task, I can give you many of them! What do you think?"
Hearing Ren Yuning’s words, Little Black sneered internally.
He knew this woman had bad intentions.
But after catching a whiff of the fragrance of the pill in her hand, he couldn’t help but let a tear slip from his mouth.
This pill really did smell wonderful!
Moreover, he could feel that this pill would have a certain effect on his growth. Although it might not be as effective as the Yun Ling Dan, it wouldn’t hurt if there were enough of them.
However, thinking of the many spiritual grains on Jingtan Peak and the Yun Ling Dan in Ji Yang’s hands, Little Black decided to abandon his thoughts.
He, Little Black, was not that kind of dog!
Of course, besides these reasons, another reason was that he couldn’t beat Ji Yang.
But even if he could, he wasn’t planning to leave Jingtan Peak.
With food and drink available, he would just let Ji Yang plant spiritual grains and catch spiritual insects for him, using his mouth to bite!
Little Black silently dreamed of this happy life when Ren Yuning interrupted him:
"Apart from these pills, I also have many spiritual plants!"
With that, Ren Yuning took out various spiritual plants from her storage bag, some purchased in Heaven Demon City and others bought along the way at the market.
Although there weren’t many high-level spiritual plants, their quantity was still considerable.
Seeing the spiritual plants, Little Black’s eyes widened slightly.
But inside, he quickly shook his head.
No, no, he couldn’t eat them!
He had only eaten Ji Yang’s spiritual grains before, which was why he ended up in the position of a worker.
If he ate now, who knows what could happen!
Suddenly, a light bulb went off in Little Black’s mind.
Why did he help Ji Yang catch insects and plant? Wasn’t it because he couldn’t beat him?
But Ren Yuning before him was only at the Middle Stage of Yuan Ying. Under his indestructible teeth, she wouldn’t last even one round.
Since that was the case, what was he afraid of?
Moreover, he held some status on Jingtan Peak. After all, he was the first spiritual beast on the peak. Shouldn’t this woman come with something to pay her respects?
Wasn’t that reasonable?
Very reasonable!
In the next moment, Little Black decisively stood up, giving Ren Yuning a condescending look, as if urging her to be smart and hand over the pills.
Seeing Little Black change his dismissive attitude, Ren Yuning thought he agreed with her words and immediately handed over all the pills and spiritual plants in her hand to Little Black.
Little Black, not being polite, opened his mouth wide and swallowed everything whole without chewing.
After finishing, he remembered to smacking his lips.
It didn’t seem to have much flavor.
Another serving?
Little Black cast his gaze toward Ren Yuning.
But Ren Yuning wasn’t foolish; she didn’t continue to take out pills from her storage bag. Instead, she tempted him by saying,
"There’s none left!"
"But if you come back with me, there will be plenty of these pills! You can have as many spiritual plants as you want!"
However, Little Black only heard the first two words. When Ren Yuning said there were none left, Little Black tilted his body, resting his head down, and decisively fell asleep.
Since there were none left, she shouldn’t disturb his sleep.
Seeing Little Black’s sudden change, Ren Yuning’s expression darkened.
Didn’t they say that if you took someone’s money, you should at least be a bit honest?
Why couldn’t she see such honest qualities in this dog?
Sure enough, Ji Yang’s spiritual beast was just like him!
One deceived the other, and the other deceived himself with the pills!
Originally planning to tempt him again, Ji Yang, who had finished planting the spiritual grains, had now returned!
Ren Yuning snorted coldly and decided to wait for another opportunity!
"Ah, finally done planting!"
Back at the peak, Ji Yang gazed at the fully planted spiritual field, feeling a sense of satisfaction in his heart.
Having been away from the sect for so long, he almost forgot what it was like to farm.
With such hard work, it was only natural that he would quickly improve his cultivation!
Ji Yang turned to look at the wooden house; Ye Wuchen was still asleep.
He couldn’t help but shake his head slightly, wondering how his Master could sleep at this age.
Other people’s Masters were either meditating or on their way to cultivate.
At this rate, how could he hope for his Master to become an immortal and take him to ascend?
