499: "Fellow villager"

Jiang Ning couldn't keep calling him "Clone, Clone" all the time.

Moreover, facing his own Clone always felt a bit strange. Thus, Jiang Ning thought of Shen Jinhuan and Second Huan.

He simply decided to call the Clone Jiang Erning.

If Jiang Erning hadn't mentioned needing to eat, Jiang Ning really would have forgotten about it.

However, Jiang Ning didn't plan on letting Jiang Erning eat.

He directly tossed out some Inedia Pills and the Medicinal Pills needed for the Early Stage of Qi Refining.

"What's the point of eating? Get up and cultivate. Don't you think it's a waste to spend such precious time on eating? Once your cultivation is successful, you can eat whatever you want and buy whatever you want; would you even need to ask me then?"

Jiang Erning was stunned, and he gritted his teeth.

Why didn't you say that when you were cultivating yourself? Now you're making me grind?

Jiang Daning was truly detestable.

This wasn't like when you were slacking off and resting!

How hateful!

Is this really how you treat a Clone who is closer than a biological brother?

While Jiang Erning was dazed, Jiang Ning urged him, "What are you standing there for? Hurry up and take the Medicinal Pills. Should I use the Human Pill Technique to help catalyze them for you while I'm at it?"

Jiang Erning sneered, "Heh, no need."

After saying that, he really took the Medicinal Pills, put them into his belly, and began to refine them.

Jiang Ning just watched from the side.

As he watched, Jiang Ning became somewhat alarmed.

Jiang Erning's absorption and refinement of the Medicinal Pills were both fast and efficient.

In the blink of an eye, one Medicinal Pill was refined, and Jiang Erning swallowed the next one.

Jiang Ning wondered if he should also find a way to refine a body and then crawl into it himself?

But a refined body has no cultivation, so everything would have to start over. This was an issue; such things could only be tried when there was an opportunity, so he'd forget it for now.

Still, even if it was something he refined himself, the idea of changing bodies felt strange to Jiang Ning.

Thinking about it, he was still bound by the traditional thoughts of people from Earth.

Forget it... Jiang Erning ate three Medicinal Pills in a short time and didn't continue. Cultivation pulled up solely by Medicinal Pills was too unstable; he needed to constantly draw Qi into his body, letting his Qi Sea and body go through an adaptation process.

Although the Medicinal Pills refined by Jiang Daning were perfect, all medicine has a bit of toxicity. Even such perfect Medicinal Pills would have a certain amount of Pill Toxin.

He wasn't like Jiang Daning, who was in the Soul Transformation realm and didn't care about these Pill Toxins, being able to expel them in an instant. It was better for his current Qi Refinement Stage body to take things steady.

While Jiang Erning inherited Jiang Ning's slacker mindset, he also inherited Jiang Ning's cautious personality.

After finishing the Medicinal Pills, he saw Jiang Ning's dumbfounded expression.

Jiang Erning smiled, "Ordinary person, are you shocked by my Heaven-Defying Aptitude? If you didn't have a Cheat, you might not be my match in a few years."

"How about it? Interested in a swap?"

"I'll be Jiang Daning, and you'll be Jiang Erning?"

Jiang Ning sneered, "Heh, a mere Qi Refining junior dares to act fierce before a Soul Transformation Old Ancestor?"

"I don't even need to strike; a single look can suppress you."

The two engaged in a war of words, going back and forth.

While arguing, Jiang Ning even felt a sense of familiarity.

Damn, it's been a long time since I used these Earth memes.

Talking with Jiang Erning now actually felt like 'when Fellow Countrymen meet, their eyes brim with tears.'

Sure enough, if there are no Fellow Countrymen, one must create them.

A created Fellow Countryman is still a Fellow Countryman.

After a few more playful words with Jiang Erning, Jiang Ning controlled the dao leaf to rise.

He split off a wisp of Divine Sense, sent it outside, saw Shen Jinhuan cultivating, and sent a voice transmission.

Shen Jinhuan opened her eyes.

Her Revered Master had finally sent her a transmission.

Checking the sun, Shen Jinhuan calculated that Jiang Ning had been in seclusion for seven days now.

During this time, the Third Prince alone had looked for Jiang Ning three times.

The Sixth Princess looked for him once.

Yun Qingqing looked for him twice.

Gongsun Wangyue looked for him once, but he came to deliver Heaven And Earth Treasures and didn't visit in person.

Besides those who visited, there were also some voice transmissions and letters.

Hearing Jiang Ning tell her to go to the inner room, Shen Jinhuan looked at the others and turned into a streak of light, diving in.

Seeing Shen Jinhuan enter the room, Jiang Ning directly controlled the dao leaf to pull her in.

Inside the Small World, Shen Jinhuan saw Jiang Erning standing before her.

Her face turned bright red.

Oh my, why isn't Revered Master wearing anything?

But could it be that Revered Master has finally seen the light? So calling me in this time is... Shen Jinhuan began to let her imagination run wild.

Immediately after, she saw the Revered Master in front of her suddenly roar and then run into the room.

A burst of embarrassed anger erupted from the room.

"Jiang Daning, damn you, why did you just let Huanhuan in?"

"Couldn't you put some clothes on me before letting Huanhuan in?"

"Do I not have a sense of shame?"

Jiang Ning, who was in another room, was stunned.

Truth be told, he really had forgotten.

He tossed a set of clothes to Jiang Erning and hurriedly ran out.

Shen Jinhuan looked at the neatly dressed Jiang Ning and said shyly.

"Revered Master, actually, if you wanted to, it's not impossible. We don't need to say so much."

"Want what? What's not impossible?"

Jiang Ning was confused.

Shen Jinhuan was also dazed.

Why does Revered Master feel so strange today?

At this moment, the neatly dressed Jiang Erning also came out of the room.

He walked up to Shen Jinhuan and patted her head.

Shen Jinhuan glanced at Jiang Erning and didn't let him touch her.

"What lowly scoundrel? How dare you impersonate my Revered Master in front of me and my Revered Master?"

Jiang Erning raised an eyebrow, "The little girl isn't big, but her Aura is quite something."

Shen Jinhuan was furious, "Who are you calling 'not big'?"

Jiang Ning hurriedly pulled the two apart.

He looked at Shen Jinhuan.

"Huanhuan, this is a body I refined using the Peerless Daoist's secret technique. Its nature is similar to Second Huan's; it has independent thoughts."

Having said that, Jiang Ning looked at Jiang Erning, "Why are you getting annoyed with Huanhuan?"

Jiang Erning smiled. As Jiang Ning's Clone, he knew how much Jiang Ning doted on Shen Jinhuan, and he had also inherited this affection.

"I was just joking with the little girl."

Shen Jinhuan accepted this reality in a state of bewilderment.

"Revered Master?"

"I'm here."

"I'm here."

Jiang Ning and Jiang Erning answered at the same time.

Shen Jinhuan's head was spinning.

Jiang Ning glanced at Jiang Erning, "Can you stop interrupting all the time?"

Jiang Erning frowned, "I'm your Clone. Huanhuan is your disciple, and she's also my disciple. What's wrong with me answering when she calls for Revered Master?"

So Jiang Ning sent a voice transmission to Shen Jinhuan, "Huanhuan, bring out Second Huan and let her play with Jiang Erning."

Shen Jinhuan nodded.

She summoned Second Huan.

Last time when they broke through the spatial medium, Second Huan was injured, but she had recovered during this time.

Coming out this time, Second Huan stretched.

Then she looked at Jiang Ning, then at Jiang Erning.

Her eyes moved back and forth between the two.

Finally, it turned into two words.

"Holy crap..."
