134: Chapter 136 Wild Demon Ape
"Oh! The Piaomiao Sect is located in Xuanwu City! Xuanwu City is one of the Four Major Cities of the Dynasty! It's the perfect place to go shopping!"
Upon hearing this, Yu Xiaotang immediately got excited and grabbed Lin Kuang's arm. "Are we really going to the Piaomiao Sect?"
Lin Kuang raised his arm and pulled Yu Xiaotang close, asking curiously, "Is there something special about these Four Major Cities?"
"If you want to talk about special things, the Sect Master of the Piaomiao Sect is a great beauty! Also, Xuanwu City's economy is highly developed! You can even see the Yao Race and other races there!"
"What's wrong? You're not thinking of making a move on her, are you? Let me tell you, the Piaomiao Sect loves nature; they won't stand for your lewd thoughts!"
"Nature? Natural selection? Then I can talk to her about the issue of sowing seeds! It just so happens to be a return to natural selection."
"Sowing seeds? You even know about planting? When did you pick up that hobby? How come I didn't know?"
"I have plenty of hobbies! You might not know them all yet, but we'll explore them slowly over time!"
"Stop it! Why were you so excited when discussing Xuanwu City?"
"Because the Piaomiao Sect consists of Pill Cultivators, so I can ask them many questions! But you have to go easy on them; Pill Cultivators aren't strong in combat! Don't break their defenses too hard!"
"As for whether their Sect Master Jia Qi knows how to sow seeds, I'm not sure! But their Medicinal Pills and perfumes are hard currency in the Qiongming World!"
"Moreover, Sister Liu Ruyan said that perfume is an important tool for female Cultivators to gain femininity!"
"Hmm? Why 'them'?" Lin Kuang had sobered up quite a bit due to Xia Qianzhen's control. Previously, the Sects he challenged were all single individuals. Why, was he going to challenge many people in this Sect?
"What's wrong? Do you want to sleep with an entire Sect by yourself? Am I not fragrant enough? I've been using the Flower Cakes recommended by Sister Liu Ruyan in my baths!"
"No, I'm just curious..."
"Curious about what? Am I not fragrant? Tell me!" Yu Xiaotang asked, pulling on Lin Kuang's collar.
"Fragrant! You're the most fragrant! Let's go buy perfume, alright?" Lin Kuang was an old hand at this and could see that Yu Xiaotang just wanted to buy perfume.
The two flirted along the way. Lin Kuang took the opportunity to teach her some hand techniques, but since it was daytime, Yu Xiaotang was a bit shy and didn't dare to be too bold.
Lin Kuang also knew Yu Xiaotang's personality and only dared to tease her slightly.
Yu Xiaotang and Lin Kuang flirted the whole way, chasing each other one moment and having Lin Kuang lift her up high the next!
Regardless of the weather, they soon reached the vicinity of Xuanwu City. They leaned against a large tree, dipping flatbread in chili sauce and eating.
"I really want to reach Xuanwu City soon! Then I won't have to eat these dry biscuits!" Yu Xiaotang said complainingly as she struggled to bite off a piece of the flatbread.
"Eh? Weren't you going to cook?" Lin Kuang asked curiously while squatting to feed the three little ones. "How's your practice going?"
"Uh... well, don't ask too many questions!" Yu Xiaotang leaned her head against Lin Kuang's thigh in a coquettish manner.
"Besides, cooking is so hard! It's harder than Cultivating!"
"How about..."
Yu Xiaotang suddenly turned her head to lie on Lin Kuang's thigh and said with a grin, "How about I have you go trick a female Cultivator who can cook into joining our team?"
"That way, no matter where we go, we can have a hot meal!"
Lin Kuang hadn't expected Yu Xiaotang to have such an idea, so he tapped her on the head. "That idea is a bit too much! Are you planning to find me a maid?"
"And one specifically for cooking? You're just not working hard to learn it yourself!"
"Oh!" Yu Xiaotang propped herself up. "It's not like she'd have to do everything! I'd definitely help out!"
"You, help? Wouldn't the more you help, the messier it gets? Oh right, I seem to remember a time when someone accidentally burned through an iron pot... mmm..."
Yu Xiaotang immediately covered Lin Kuang's mouth and argued, "It's all your fault for using that Nine Suns Burning Fire Art; you couldn't control the flames!"
"It... has... nothing... to do with me..." Lin Kuang struggled to argue back.
"Also, where did you buy that crappy pot! Why was it so useless!"
"That's... because... you... weren't watching it!" Lin Kuang's voice muffled through the soft gaps of Yu Xiaotang's fingers.
"Aaaah! I'm not listening, I'm not listening! Lin Kuang, your mouth must be dry! Here I come!" Yu Xiaotang let go and blocked Lin Kuang's mouth with her red lips. After the kiss, she followed up with a triple-hit combo!
While Lin Kuang and Yu Xiaotang were fooling around, a white head suddenly popped out of the nearby bushes.
"Alright! I'll stop talking, okay?" With a sudden pull, Lin Kuang drew Yu Xiaotang into his arms. With her face pressed against his chest, she instantly quieted down!
"What's wrong? Is an enemy coming?" Yu Xiaotang also calmed down in an instant!
"Yeah! It looks like there's a Spirit Beast!" Lin Kuang pointed at the white head as it slowly stepped out of the bushes.
It was a Demon Ape with three tails. Its aura was extremely powerful, feeling even a notch above the Crystal Giant Turtle!
[Ding! Mission Triggered: Subdue the Demon Ape without provoking its anger.]
[Mission Reward: Low-grade Spirit Beast Pill × 15.]
[Passive Skill: Calm and Composed — Can avoid becoming the target of a Spirit Beast's rampage.]
This passive seemed quite useless. After all, Lin Kuang wasn't a fool; why would he wander around in front of a rampaging Spirit Beast?
If someone didn't go out of their way to provoke a Spirit Beast, who else would get hit?
However, a Spirit Beast appearing at this time—and a bellicose one at that! Warlike Spirit Beasts find it easier to achieve a Breakthrough; they have a combative temperament and an indomitable spirit! Once defeated, their probability of a Breakthrough increases more easily!
Moreover, the Red Rock Demon Ape, which the Demon Ape evolves into, is the most prone to rampaging among Spirit Beasts. Once in that state, all its stats increase, and it loses all fear of death.
The Red Rock Demon Ape isn't even the final form. The final form is the Blazing Vajra, which can transform into flame armor, drastically boosting the host's strength!
It just so happens there's a vacancy for a Spirit Beast, so subduing one would be good!
Speaking of which, when can I Breakthrough? Or System, give me a few more slots so I can collect more Spirit Beasts and control more Magic Treasures to attack!
Demon Apes have massive appetites and especially love human food! Lin Kuang picked up some flatbread and a few Spirit Beast Pills and approached.
They were truly gluttonous, but they were also very protective of their food! In his own world, there were special zones to deal with disobedient mad dogs.
Was there a place in this world specifically for disciplining disobedient Spirit Beasts? Right! The Beast Taming Sect!
That being said, the opponent hadn't actively attacked Lin Kuang. He cautiously handed the flatbread and Spirit Beast Pills to the Demon Ape!
The Demon Ape took the items from Lin Kuang, looking completely bewildered.
"This is very delicious! You can give it a try!" At this moment, Xiao Wu appeared before the Demon Ape, acting as a diplomat.
A Spirit Beast's perception is stronger than an ordinary Cultivator's, and since the secret control methods for Artifact Spirits and Spirit Pets are similar, the Demon Ape could understand what Xiao Wu was saying.
