Chapter 120: Chapter 120: Not Satisfied with Three Dao Companions?!—!
Translator: 549690339 |
After resting for three more days, Ji Bingyu, Xia Jingyan, and Mu Ziyi, fully rebounded back to their peak state, all reaching the perfect realm of the ninth layer of Qi Cultivation.
They bid farewell to Zhou Sui and went into their individual caves to attempt the Foundation Establishment.
After all, there was a second stage Spirit Vein here.
This location was extremely beneficial for their Foundation Establishment, it could even enhance the success rate to a certain degree.
They didn’t need to go anywhere else for cultivation.
However, this was a tough time for Zhou Sui.
Having three Taoist companions all simultaneously entering seclusion for a breakthrough, and yet no one to accompany him during lonely and restless nights was a rare occurrence in recent years.
But then again, soon he would have three partners who had Established their Foundation.
By then, he could cultivate together with Foundation Cultivators, which was an unprecedented privilege in the world of cultivation.
After all, which man could find a Foundation partner during their Qi Cultivation Stage? It was simply unheard of.
It was as unthinkable as a mouse finding a mother cat as its partner.
“Indeed, it’s an occasion to celebrate.”
With this thought, Zhou Sui personally started cooking, using the meat of the second level monstrous beast, the Great Rock Snake, which he obtained previously. The kitchen was soon filled with an alluring aroma, mouth-watering to say the least.
In a short while the table was filled with a feast, five dishes and a soup, accompanied by fruits and vegetables, it was quite a sumptuous spread.
For the past three months, his main diet had basically been the meat of second level monstrous beasts.
Honestly, this was greatly beneficial for his cultivation.
Especially for the Dragon Elephant Gu, these monstrous beast meats were highly nourishing, they could considerably expedite its evolution.
This also enabled Zhou Sui to acquire more mystical blood energy. Without a doubt, his physical constitution now, compared to three months ago, was much stronger; his vital essence was full to the brim, and his body’s strength was extremely formidable.
If this were to continue, even before his cultivation Foundation was Established, his body seemed to have begun the process.
“What is that smell? It’s so delicious!”
At this moment, Leng Yuexi came in following the wonderful aroma, she seemed to have noticed the smell of the cookery and curiously looked at the dishes on Zhou Sui’s table.
“Senior Leng, you noticed the aroma too. Today I made a soup with snake
meat, let’s enjoy it together.”
Zhou Sui invited her in.
“I never expected that you could cook as well. I originally thought that it was your Taoist companions who were doing all the cooking.
Leng Yuexi did not decline.
During these three months, they frequently had meals together, their relation improved significantly and it had simply become routine.
Even for Foundation Cultivators, though their daily appetite had greatly diminished, they still needed to eat.
“Cooking is just a skill to me. When I was alone, I used to cook for myself, it’s nothing big.”
Zhou Sui smiled slightly.
Even though in his previous life he had been a social recluse and frequently ordered takeaway, there were times when he cooked for himself.
He had watched videos online and learned some simple cooking techniques. Of course, his cooking could not be classified as delicious, but he managed just enough to fill his stomach and that was enough.
“So you were on your own once as well? Maybe I am too now.” Leng Yuexi seemed to be reminded of something and couldn’t help but jest.
“Oh? Doesn’t Senior Leng have a father, the Sect Master of Immortal Mist Sect? Don’t you have a family?”
Zhou Sui asked curiously.
-Heh, he didn’t even dare to descend the mountain to save his own daughter who was trapped in Misty Cloud City for over two years, what kind of father is he?”
Leng Yuexi scoffed coldly.
Clearly she bore a great resentment towards her father, the Sect Master of
Immortal Mist Sect.
Although she could understand his ruthless actions for the sake of the Sect, as a father, he just watched as his own daughter fell into the hands of the Ghost Demon Sect without making any effort to intervene.
No matter how understanding she was, she could not emotionally accept this, it left her feeling very distressed.
However, such instances weren’t rare in the cultivation world where the pursuit of eternal life often led to the abandonment of wives and daughters. The number of ruthless cultivators was simply too high.
-What would you do if your Taoist companions were surrounded by cultivators from the Demon Sect and faced a life or death situation, would you save them or not?”
At this moment, Leng Yuexi looked intently at Zhou Sui, she seemed rather
serious.
-Of course I would save them. Even if it was a life or death situation, I would
still save them.”
“If I didn’t have them anymore and I was the only one left, there would be no meaning left for me either.”
Zhou Sui, without thought, responded passionately on reflex. In his past life, he had become proficient in all sorts of girlfriend question and answer sessions, he had ample theoretical experience and he wouldn’t make a mistake.
“Just as I thought, there are men in this world who are different. “Even though you are a pervert, you still value relationships and righteousness.”
Leng Yuexi felt a warm fuzziness in her heart and responded with a little sentimentality.
She felt her fondness of Zhou Sui increasing rapidly.
Truthfully, she did not doubt his words.
When Misty Cloud City was besieged by the Ghost Demon Sect, he did not abandon his Taoist companions and instead, managed to build a massive underground shelter.
He not only protected himself, but also his Taoist companions. If he were not a man of righteousness and relationships, he could never have accomplished such an arduous task.
Now he has refined three Foundation Pills and given them all to his Taoist companions to assist in their breakthrough.
Even though this man says he will definitely be able to get Foundation Pills in the future.
But who could guarantee the future?
What if he’s unable to acquire a second level inner core, or what if he’s unable to successfully refine a Foundation Pill? Anything’s possible.
Who could be a hundred percent certain?
Without a doubt, if there were no more Foundation Pills, it’s very likely one’s path will be blocked.
One who would willingly sacrifice his own path to aid his Taoist companions in their breakthrough, she seriously could not think of a second man who would make such a choice.
Even within the Immortal Mist Sect, though the Direct Disciples behaved very amiably, when it came to competing for Foundation Pills, they would turn ruthless, showing no mercy.
None of the Direct Disciples would back down.
A man’s character is determined not by what he says, or what he thinks, but by what he does.
Some people are smooth talkers, they’re hypocritical and disgusting. Yet some are smooth talkers because they’re genuine and bring joy to others. Obviously, this man belonged to the latter.
“Senior Leng, even though you said you are alone now, if you don’t mind, in the future I can become your family.” At this moment, Zhou Sui was looking very seriously at Leng Yuexi.
What?!
Hearing these words, Leng Yuexi blushed instantly, as if she was drunk. What on earth does this man think he s saying?
What does he mean by, “in the future I can become your family?”
Is this a noun phrase or a verb phrase?
Could it be that this man wants to be her Taoist companion?!
Yet, this scoundrel already has three wives and doesn’t seem satisfied, could it be he’s taken a fancy to her too?
