Sword Sect Little Demon Child, Three and a Half Years Old and Extremely Fierce

After the Qingyun Sect members left.

Su Ning let out a sigh of relief: "Junior Sister, let's hurry up and leave, in case they change their minds..."

I shook my head.

Didn't move.

I stared at the crimson fruit in front of the giant python.

The giant python stared at me.

We looked at each other.

It blinked.

I blinked too.

The three crimson fruits were still lying on the ground.

It used the tip of its tail to push one of the stones in front of me.

Then, carrying the egg and two other fruits, he quickly turned around and disappeared into the depths of the dense forest.

They were moving so fast, as if they were afraid I'd ask for too much.

I picked up the crimson fruit and looked at my fellow disciples.

The senior students were all petrified.

Gu Chenguang murmured, "It...it gave you one?"

I nodded.

Yan Chuan's voice trembled: "The Crimson Fruit, which only bears fruit once every five hundred years... it gave you one?"

I continued nodding.

Murong Zhuo rubbed his forehead: "I feel a little dizzy."

Gu Chenguang nodded: "Me too."

I held up the fruit: "Sixth Senior Brother, how do we eat this fruit?"

Gu Chenguang struggled to find his voice: "Eat it directly. It can raise your cultivation by at least one small realm. It works best on fire-type cultivators."

I nodded.

Then he turned around and stuffed the fruit into Yan Chuan's mouth.

Yan Chuan: "???"

He felt like throwing up.

I've already covered his mouth.

"Swallow it."

Yan Chuan's eyes reddened.

It wasn't just being moved.

It got stuck in my throat.

"Cough cough cough~~" He finally managed to swallow the fruit, his eyes filled with tears, "Junior Sister, you..."

He hadn't finished speaking.

A red glow began to emanate from his body.

It's that kind of red glow that comes from within the skin.

Suning reacted extremely quickly: "Quick! Protect the Dharma!"

Several senior brothers immediately formed a circle, wary of their surroundings.

Yan Chuan sat down cross-legged, and his breathing began to fluctuate violently.

Half an hour later.

The red light subsided.

Yan Chuan opened his eyes.

The aura was noticeably different.

Suning tentatively asked, "You've broken through?"

Yan Chuan sensed the spiritual energy within his body, grinned, and smiled like a child over a hundred years old: "Late stage of Golden Core."

Murong Zhuo said with a hint of sourness, "Although you're ranked fourth, your cultivation level is now ranked third."

He paused, then added reluctantly, "I hate it."

Gu Chenguang silently took notes in his little notebook:

—Junior Sister's Record of Distributing Supplies:

—Zhu Chiguo ×1.

—Beneficiary: Yan Chuan.

—Result: Mid-stage Golden Core → Late-stage Golden Core.

—Note: I also want to be stuffed with fruit.

Yan Chuan walked over, opened his mouth as if to say something.

I waved my hand: "Fourth Senior Brother, you've protected me so many times, it's just a fruit."

Yan Chuan paused for a moment.

Then he ruffled my head so hard I almost got shoved into the ground.

"Junior Sister, from now on, if anyone bullies you, I, your fourth senior brother, will be the first to step in and twist their head off to use as a chamber pot!"

Me: "...Thank you, Fourth Senior Brother, but I don't need the chamber pot."

........................

The snake crisis was resolved.

We are ready to leave the secret realm.

Upon reaching the entrance to the secret realm, they discovered...

We can't get out!

The exit of the secret realm was sealed by a faint light curtain.

We just couldn't get through.

Gu Chenguang flipped through the notebook, and when he reached a certain page, his expression changed.

"Forgot about that... This secret realm opens once every ten days."

Everyone: "..."

I counted on my fingers.

I've been here for three days.

There are still... seven days left.

We will stay in the secret realm for another seven days.

I looked at my fellow students and suggested, "How about... we go find our eldest brother?"

The senior students all shook their heads.

Suning: "No way! The mid-field is too dangerous!"

Yan Chuan: "Between the outer perimeter and the inner perimeter lies a densely populated area of ​​demonic beasts!"

Murong Zhuo: "The mid-level demonic beasts we encountered before were just a coincidence!"

Gu Chenguang: "Besides, our senior brother is on guard duty, and if we rush over there rashly, it will affect his work."

I nodded: "Oh."

Then I started to walk deeper into the outer area.

Senior brothers: "...Junior sister, where are you going?"

I turned around and said, "Go find the senior brother."

Senior brothers: "Didn't you just nod?"

I retorted confidently, "My nodding means I heard you, not that I agree."

The senior students: "..."

Finally, after my insistence, they caught up.

After all, leaving me here alone would be more dangerous.

We carefully made our way through the perimeter.

Occasionally, one may encounter low-level monsters.

They ran away when they saw me.

Occasionally, one may encounter mid-level monsters.

When they saw me, they hesitated for a moment, then ran away.

Occasionally, one may encounter groups of mid-level monsters.

They saw me, discussed it for a moment, and then collectively took a detour.

The senior students went from being nervous at the beginning to becoming numb later on.

Su Ning couldn't help but ask again, "Junior Sister, are you sure your father is just a hunter?"

I remained expressionless: "Hmm. A very skilled hunter."

Yan Chuan muttered to himself, "This hunter probably hunted sacred beasts before..."

I didn't answer, because he guessed correctly.

Gu Chenguang pushed me aside: "Junior Sister, could you stand a little further back? There seems to be a valuable one over there."

I looked at Gu Chenguang: "Sixth Senior Brother, you've changed."

Gu Chenguang remained expressionless: "I'm just considering the sect's finances."

And so, we entered the central area without any obstacles.

--------

Upon entering the central area, the difference was immediately apparent.

The trees are taller.

The light was dimmer.

The spiritual energy in the air is even stronger.

We walked for an hour.

Finally, we heard human voices.

Suning made a gesture, and we quietly approached.

Parting the bushes, I saw a clearing.

In the open space, a group of young men and women dressed in magnificent robes were resting.

They were accompanied by various mythical beasts.

There are wolves, leopards, eagles, and foxes.

There's one more...

I rubbed my eyes.

Is that a pig?

It was pink, round, and snoring at the female nun's feet.

The female cultivator stroked its fur while stuffing spiritual fruits into its mouth.

One after another.

They are all spiritual fruits.

Valuable spiritual fruit.

I looked at the pig and fell into deep thought.

Pigs get such good treatment?

This world is so unfair.

……

At the edge of the crowd, a figure in white was sitting cross-legged in meditation.

He's the eldest brother.

Shen Qingchen.

He closed his eyes, and spiritual energy flowed around him.

His aura seemed more composed than when he left the sect.

"Senior Brother!"

I broke free from Suning's grasp and rushed over.

Shen Qingchen opened her eyes.

Upon seeing me, a rare look of shock appeared on his face.

Then it opened its arms and caught me as I lunged at it.

"Why are you here?"

Me: "We've come to find you!"

Shen Qingchen looked up at his senior brothers behind him.

Su Ning chuckled awkwardly, "Senior Brother, long time no see."

Yan Chuan scratched his head: "Um...we came out to earn some extra money."

Murong Zhuo blinked: "I just wanted to drop by and see you."

Gu Chenguang smiled: "Surprised?"

Shen Qingchen remained silent for two seconds.

Then he asked, "Did you encounter any monsters?"

Su Ning was taken aback: "Uh, yes, I did run into him."

Yan Chuan scratched his head: "Both low-level and mid-level are available."

Murong Zhuo blinked: "But... it's a long story."

Gu Chenguang handed over the notebook: "I've written it all down. Senior Brother can take his time to look at it when he has time."

Shen Qingchen remained silent for three seconds.

Then he sighed.

"We'll talk about it when we get back."

At this time.

People from the Yuling Sect came over to greet them.

The leaders were a man and a woman.

The man was quite handsome, with a robust build, and a rather hearty laugh.

The woman was gentle and beautiful; she was the one who had just fed the pig.

"Who are you?" the man asked, looking at us.

Shen Qingchen introduced: "My junior brothers and sisters."

The man paused for a moment, then clasped his hands in a fist and palm salute: "So you're a fellow Daoist from the Sword Sect! It's an honor to meet you!"

I asked Su Ning in a low voice, "What have they been admiring about for so long?"

Suning replied quietly, "I've long admired our poverty."

I:"……"

The man introduced himself: "I am Li Bufan, the second disciple of the Yuling Sect, at the early stage of the Golden Core realm."

The woman bowed slightly: "Qing Liuliu, the third disciple of the Yuling Sect, has reached the Great Perfection of the Foundation Establishment stage."

The two looked very young, around twenty years old.

But based on my three-year-old intelligence, I estimate that these two people are at least a hundred years old.

After all, there are no Golden Core cultivators who are twenty years old in the cultivation world.

Unless you're someone like me who's cheating.

I looked at them and politely replied, "Hello, brother; hello, sister."

Qing Liuliu clutched her chest: "Oh my god, you called me 'sister'! You're so cute!"

The pink pig next to her grunted, turned over, and went back to sleep.

Qingliuliu immediately squatted down and stroked its fur: "Good boy, you're still the cutest."

I:"……"

Humans are worse than pigs.

This sentence gave me my first profound understanding.

I couldn't help but ask, "Sister, is this... also a spirit beast?"

Qing Liuliu smiled: "This is my contracted beast, the Seven-Colored Glazed Pig."

I blinked.

pig.

Seven colors? Crystal?

It looks pink no matter how you look at it.

I asked again, "So what's the use of this pig?"

Qing Liuliu gently stroked the pig's head: "The Glazed Pig is a rare treasure-hunting spirit beast that can sense rare and precious materials. Although its combat power is average, it's very cute."

I glanced at the pig.

It snored, rolled over, and continued sleeping, drooling all over the floor.

cute?

Fine.

Aesthetic sense is indeed subjective and varies from person to person.
