Chapter 65: You Call It A Duck?
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Lin Jiansheng couldn’t believe that Yu Huang could advance from a ignorant young lady to a level-two Purifying Spirit Master in less than a month. After all, he had spent three years to condense the Psychic Pearl.
It was obvious that she had a fortuitous encounter!
Could she be the legendary kind of heaven chosen child in movies?
If Yu Huang was the chosen one, then he was the mentor of the chosen one! Just the thought of it was exciting!
Lin Jiansheng stroked his beard thoughtfully. He looked shrewd and composed. No one could guess what he was thinking.
Lin Jiansheng narrowed his eyes and asked Yu Huang, “Tell me properly. Did you encounter any fortuitous encounters during your trip?”
Yu Huang deliberately tried to frighten Lin Jiansheng. Without mentally preparing Lin Jiansheng, she suddenly said, “I refined the Soul Devouring Blood Butterfly’s Butterfly Queen.”
Lin Jiansheng was speechless.
“What? You refined the Butterfly Queen?” Lin Jiansheng’s voice broke as his brows jumped up and down. He looked quite funny.
Yu Huang nodded calmly and sat down cross-legged in the cultivation hall. She said in a flat tone, “Yes, I went to the Purgatory Sea. Those little things all got eliminated by me. Then, their Butterfly Queen made a move. I went to temper my mental strength and I believed that the Butterfly Queen’s energy was the strongest. The effect of using it to temper one’s mental strength would definitely be doubled, so I refined it.”
Lin Jiansheng was dumbfounded.
How could this be?
Yu Huang summoned a trace of Psychic power. The Psychic power was like a small flame that wrapped around Yu Huang’s fingertip. Yu Huang stared at them and said, “My Psychic power is fire-elemental.”
Since ancient times, the Psychic energy of a Purifying Spirit Master was water-elemental. Water could purify all things, so they could use their Psychic energy to purify the impurities in a mortal’s body. Top-notch big shots could even help some Beast Tamers improve their beast form.
However, Yu Huang’s Psychic power was fire-elemental.
The fire attribute was more overbearing and ruthless than the water attribute Psychic. It seemed that in terms of purification power, it was also much stronger than the water attribute.
After knowing the whole story, Lin Jiansheng looked at Yu Huang as if he was looking at a monster. After a long while, he sighed and said, “If Saint Xuan Ye knew about your fortunate opportunity, he would probably go crazy with jealousy.”
Saint Xuan Ye had refined the Butterfly Father back then. This was enough for him to boast about for the rest of his life. If he knew that the powerful and overbearing Butterfly Queen he spoke of had been refined by an 18-year-old girl, he would probably be outraged.
Yu Huang waved her hand and pretended to be humble. “It was all luck.”
Lin Jiansheng shook his head. “On the path of cultivation, there is no such thing as luck.” The so-called luck was success through risking one’s life.
When Yu Huang heard this, she shut her mouth and stopped talking.
That’s right, how was it a fluke to be able to refine the Butterfly Queen?
She had been killed by the Butterfly Queen more than a hundred times. Every time she died and came back to life, she had to repeatedly bear the pain of her mental strength being broken and rebuilt.
She had suffered and bled, but she did not want to deliberately publicize the hardships she had suffered. Only the weak would complain.
Lin Jiansheng did not ask Yu Huang what kind of hardships she had suffered in the Purgatory Sea. He only raised his hand and stroked her hair while saying, “From today onwards, you, Yu Huang, will be my only personal disciple.”
Lin Jiansheng had many students, but Yu Huang was the only personal disciple.
Yu Huang smiled at Lin Jiansheng in a flattering manner. “Master, then you’re not allowed to accept other disciples!”
“I won’t.”
Lin Jiansheng had just been mind blown. Now that the shock had subsided, he actually felt thirsty.
At the thought of Yu Huang knowing how to brew tea, Lin Jiansheng said to her, “The tea you brew is delicious. Let’s go and brew a pot of tea.”
“Alright!”
After returning to Lin Jiansheng’s living room, Yu Huang focused on making tea for Lin Jiansheng. Lin Jiansheng held a book and pretended to read it while asking Yu Huang about Yu Donghai.
“How’s that old man been recently?”
Upon hearing this, Yu Huang smiled and told Lin Jiansheng, “It’s all good. When he found out that I had become a Purifying Spirit Master and a Beast Tamer, he was so happy that he cried yesterday. I even brought him to the hospital and customized his prosthetic arm. He will be able to wear it next month.”
Lin Jiansheng suddenly stopped flipping the book.
What did he just hear?
Lin Jiansheng turned to look at Yu Huang in shock and asked her in a soft tone, “What did you say just now?”
Yu Huang poured the tea leaves into the teapot and raised her head to look at Lin Jiansheng. She thought for a while and said, “I’ve customized a prosthetic limb for my father. He can move around like a normal person next month.”
Lin Jiansheng shook his head hurriedly. “Not that. The first sentence.”
Yu Huang thought for a moment before realizing the key point. She slapped her forehead in frustration and said, “I forgot to tell you.”
Yu Huang sat upright and placed her hands on her thighs. She looked at Lin Jiansheng directly and told him, “Mentor, the Spirit Restraining Parasite in my body has been removed. I am now a Beast Tamer.”
Pa!
The book in Lin Jiansheng’s hand fell on the table.
“Beast Tamer?” Lin Jiansheng’s lips quivered as he tugged at his beard in disbelief.
Only after feeling some pain did Lin Jiansheng dare to believe that he was not hearing things.
This girl actually forgot to say something so important!
Lin Jiansheng hurriedly stood up from behind the table and strode towards Yu Huang. He urged her, “Quick, summon your beast form for me to see!”
If he had not seen Yu Huang summon her beast form with his own eyes, Lin Jiansheng would not have believed Yu Huang’s words.
Yu Huang nodded and closed her eyes. In the next moment, Lin Jiansheng felt the air become distorted. Immediately after, the air suddenly caught fire. Under Lin Jiansheng’s shocked gaze, the flames gathered and turned into a small duck.
The little duck looked up at Lin Jiansheng and flapped its wings. Suddenly, it opened its mouth at Lin Jiansheng and spat out a mouthful of flames!
Lin Jiansheng was caught off guard, and the long beard on his chin instantly caught fire.
“Whoa!” Lin Jiansheng hurriedly took a step back and hurriedly extinguished the flames with his sleeve.
Yu Huang was also shocked. She did not give the beast form the order to attack. This was completely the duckling’s idea.
Yu Huang hurriedly stood up and asked Lin Jiansheng, “Mentor, your beard…”
Lin Jiansheng lowered his sleeve. When Yu Huang saw the curly beard on his chin, she was momentarily at a loss for words.
Lin Jiansheng usually cherished his small mustache the most, but at this moment, he forgot about the fact that his beard had been burned and only stared at Yu Huang’s beast-shaped duck quizzically.
Thinking that Lin Jiansheng was angry with the little duck, Yu Huang hurriedly said, “Mentor, don’t be angry with the little duck. I have yet to establish a rapport and trust with this little duck. It is rebellious and doesn’t listen to me.”
Lin Jiansheng looked at Yu Huang as if he was looking at a retard. “You call it a duckling?”
Yu Huang was stunned by Lin Jiansheng’s words. She stared at the little duck and subconsciously said, “Isn’t that just a duck?”
Seeing that Lin Jiansheng’s expression was not right, Yu Huang’s eyes flickered slightly as she said, “Could it be a little chick?”
“Nonsense! Have you ever seen a duck that spits fire?” Lin Jiansheng pulled Yu Huang’s hand and walked out of the activity room. As they walked, he said, “Come with me.”
“Where are we going?”
“The Pavilion!”
