Dragon Emperor, Martial God

Ling Yun explained the Spirit Potency Art and the cultivation technique until late, only then letting Xue Meining retire back to her room.

Ling Yun still used meditation to replace sleep. He cultivated with madness and soon ushered in the dawn of the next day.

Today was the grand opening of Ling Yun’s clinic.

Ling Yun was the first to get up. He didn’t disturb Xue Meining, jumping from the window of the second floor and coming to the courtyard instead.

Ling Yun had to absorb the Fiery Essence of the Sun to cultivate his Stellar Condensation Technique.

While it wasn’t possible to achieve a breakthrough in the short term, Ling Yun could still absorb the essence of the moon and the power of the galaxy to further strengthen his body.

An hour later, Ling Yun was done with his cultivation. He was about to return to the living room when he saw Miao Xiaomiao walking out.

Miao Xiaomiao was wearing a turquoise dress with short sleeves and a high waist. Her skin was white and crystal clear, her long black hair fluttered in the wind, and her legs were long and straight. The morning sun sprinkled on her body, bathing her with a faint glow. She was beautiful beyond words.

“So beautiful!” Ling Yun was a little dazed. He stopped his footsteps involuntarily.

In the next moment, he flew into a rage!

Miao Xiaomiao beckoned.

The plump Xiao Jin flew from Ling Yun’s Shichiyou herb patch and landed on Miao Xiaomiao’s shoulders!

Xiao Jin obviously ate too much, as its stomach was rounded. It laid on Miao Xiaomiao’s shoulder, too lazy to even flap its wings.

“F*ck!”

It was a bad sign. Ling Yun flew to where the Shichiyou herbs grew, and sure enough, as he feared, a patch of his precious Shichiyou herb had been eaten by Xiao Jin!

“I’ll kill you!” Ling Yun cried out angrily, his heart in immense pain. He appeared before Miao Xiaomiao and extended his palm towards her shoulder!

Xiao Jin was perceptive. It was already high up in the air because it sensed that something wasn’t right!

“Ling Yun, what are you doing!” Miao Xiaomiao shouted, knowing from the wind from his palm that he was serious.

“Hmph!” Ling Yun didn’t reply. Instead, he flicked a huge needle into the sky towards Xiao Jin!

“Ji…” Xiao Jin flapped its wings and changed direction mid-way. It then climbed more than ten meters higher to escape Ling Yun’s attack range.

“Ling Yun, you dare bully Xiao Jin! I’ll get even with you!”

Miao Xiaomiao raised her hands in preparation to attack Ling Yun after seeing how he attacked Xiao Jin without any reason.

“Ah! Big Sister, Big Brother Yun, what are you two doing so early in the morning!”

Ling Yun’s outburst woke Xue Meining. She quickly came to the window to see what was happening.

“Hmph, keep your poison. It doesn’t work on me!” Ling Yun bellowed at Miao Xiaomiao and pointed into the sky. “It ate my precious herbs. Tell me, does it deserve to be punished?”

Miao Xiaomiao’s beautiful eyes blinked and turned to where Ling Yun planted the Shichiyou herbs. She then turned back towards Ling Yun and looked at him with disdain.

“Oh, I wondered what happened. Isn’t it just a patch of White Spot Herb? See how stingy you are!”

What? White Spot Herb? So the Shichiyou herb is known as the White Spot Herb in this world?

However, whatever name the Shichiyou herb had was of no concern to Ling Yun now. “It seems like you knew that Xiao Jin was eating my White Spot Herb?” he asked angrily.

That question was redundant. Miao Xiaomiao and the superior golden silkworm were connected via telepathy. How could Miao Xiaomiao not know?

Miao Xiaomiao was confused. “Of course, isn’t it just White Spot Herb? Why do you need to treat Xiao Jin this way?”

Miao Xiaomiao had seen a valley full of this herb in the ten thousand mountains in the Miaojiang region. Hence she didn’t think it was rare.

However, she didn’t know that Ling Yun infused Immortal Spiritual Energy into the Shichiyou herbs when he was transplanting them.

This patch of Shichiyou herbs would be of little use towards Ling Yun’s cultivation if he didn’t infuse it with Immortal Spiritual Energy. With it, the Shichiyou Pill that he could refine would be vastly different and would still be able to help him break through to the Qi Cultivation stage.

Ling Yun’s heart ached madly. “Why didn’t you stop Xiao Jin from eating it then? This is stealing! Pay me back!”

This was the first time Miao Xiaomiao saw Ling Yun getting angry. Her eyes narrowed. “Fine, I’ll pay. Miaojiang has a lot of this White Spot Herb. You can take all you want when you are there!”

Ling Yun’s ears perked up. There were Shichiyou herbs in Miaojiang? Wouldn’t that mean he was rich?

Nonetheless, he pointed towards the Shichiyou herbs and said in a cold voice, “I want you to pay for that patch. That patch is different, as I infused it with spiritual energy. It’s totally different from others!”

Ling Yun didn’t specify that he used Immortal Spiritual Energy. That was one of his biggest secrets, which couldn’t be said to anyone just like that.

“Gah…”

Miao Xiaomiao was taken aback. She knew that Xiao Jin was overjoyed after finding spiritual energy. She originally thought that it was because Xiao Jin hadn’t found something suitable to its taste buds for quite some time. She didn’t think it would be because of the spiritual energy.

Miao Xiaomiao finally understood why Ling Yun behaved the way he did. She knew that she was on the losing end, so she flashed a sweet smile instead. “Erm, Ling Yun, isn’t it just a small patch of White Spot Herb. Moreover, Xiao Jin only nibbled at a few leaves, it will regrow in no time…”

Miao Xiaomiao’s smile was really useful. Ling Yun nearly got sucked in by it, but he managed to disperse all its temptation. “Hmph, the most valuable part of the White Spot Herb is in its leaves, and Xiao Jin ate half of it. Tell me what I should do!”

Miao Xiaomiao pouted after seeing how Ling Yun wouldn’t even let up an inch. “Didn’t I say that I’d find as much White Spot Herb as you want when you are in Miaojiang. Won’t that do?” Miao Xiaomiao said in a small voice.

Ling Yun gave it some thought. A few strands for a countless amount, that was actually enough. Nonetheless, he just had to win every argument. “Not only the White Spot Herb, you also have to help me find all the other herbs I want!”

There should be other valuable spiritual herbs if Miaojiang had Shichiyou herbs. Ling Yun definitely wanted them.

“I knew you were greedy! Fine, there’s a lot of it anyway. I’ll bring you as long as you have ample time, and as long as you aren’t afraid to face nature, miasma, and poisonous bugs!” Miao Xiaomiao agreed decisively. She just wanted to give Ling Yun a scare.

It was lost on Ling Yun, unfortunately. “Rest assured, I have yet to see miasma that can kill me. I can expand my knowledge then!” Ling Yun grinned.

They had finally reached a mutual agreement. “However, you cannot let Xiao Jin eat any more of the White Spot Herb. I have to use it to concoct medical pills. There is a huge use for it in the future, understand?”

Xiao Jin had its fill. It wouldn’t need to eat more for at least two months, so Miao Xiaomiao agreed.

“Big Brother Yun, are you only fighting over this?” Xue Meining rubbed her eyes and walked out of the villa. She found it really funny.

“Big Brother Yun, Grandpa is going to give you many herbs today. The Tianshan Snow Lotus, Red Yang Grass, and more. Why do you care so much about some grass?”

“Erm…”

Ling Yun was dumbstruck! Was Grandpa Xue going to give extravagant gifts as well?

Ling Yun didn’t yet know the extent of the gifts he would be receiving today. He would be rich!

“Hehe…” Xue Meining giggled. “Alright, you’ll know then. Go and make breakfast, I’m hungry!”

Xue Meining fought the urge to tell Ling Yun about the gifts from her family. She wanted to give Ling Yun a huge surprise!

Ling Yun pointed towards the superior golden silkworm in the sky. “Hmph, don’t let me catch you. I’ll barbecue and eat you if I do!”

“You dare eat Xiao Jin? It will poison you to death!” Miao Xiaomiao retorted upon seeing how Ling Yun was still venting at Xiao Jin.

However, the thought of Ling Yun’s powers when he erupted just now sent shivers down Miao Xiaomiao’s spine. He had advanced so much in just one and a half months!

At the very least, Xiao Jin would have been hurt if it wasn’t so fast!

“Stingy, changing your face whenever you please. I’ve never seen a man with such a temperament!” Miao Xiaomiao cursed at him while trying to hide her feelings. She rolled her eyes at Ling Yun and walked back into the house with Xue Meining’s arm linked with hers.

Ling Yun flew towards the patch of Shichiyou herbs, counting how many Shichiyou Pills he lost if he were to concoct them.

It was a huge loss!

Nonetheless, he would also gain a lot when he headed to Miaojiang. A smile crept up his face.

He could already see the Shichiyou herbs in the valleys of Miaojiang waiting to be plucked by him!
