Zheng Jingshan, who was outside the temple, was also anxious. “Why isn’t Senior Sister speaking?”
Is she too focused on studying the jade slip, or could not be bothered with me?
At that moment, he hated Pei Ling to the core.
After all, in Zheng Jingshan’s opinion, the only thing that could anger his Senior Sister recently was that as an inner sect disciple and one of the faction leaders of the Deep Sea Sect, he had allowed a disciple of the Pei family to find Wu Tingxi before him.
Presumably, when Pei Ling took the item and came to find Senior Sister, Senior Sister had increasingly believed that Zheng Jingshan was a piece of trash.
Zheng Jingshan did not dare to leave without Fairy Li’s permission. However, when he thought of how Pei Ling had not only embarrassed him in front of his senior sister, he had also broken into his room to cultivate. If he were to let him go like this, how could he tolerate that?
As he was in a dilemma, he suddenly heard a familiar cold voice mixed with a fit of rare anger. “Scram!”
Although Zheng Jingshan was wary of the skull wind chime and did not dare approach the temple, he was still shocked by the deafening shout from inside. He calmed himself down and lowered his head. “Yes. I’ll be back soon.”
In the room, Pei Ling watched stiffly as Fairy Li slowly sat up on the bed. Her dress had been torn apart by the system’s control of Pei Ling’s body. At the moment, she was undraped, her delicate skin filled with the marks left behind by Dual Cultivation. There were a few dark red spots on the bed. The scene mixed with her originally fierce and arrogant temperament made her look holy yet fallen, giving off a unique charm.
However, Fairy Li’s face was frosty at the moment. Her eyes were burning with rage as she looked at Pei Ling coldly.
Pei Ling stood there like a statue and looked at her expressionlessly.
It couldn’t be helped… He did not know what expression he should have to face this fairy.
Fairy Li stared at Pei Ling for a moment before slapping her palm down!
Pei Ling’s hair stood on end. When he thought that he was surely dead, the wind from the palm almost touched his face before it suddenly slanted and pulverized a small table nearby.
Next, Fairy Li flew into a rage and slapped repeatedly. All the cherry-picked furnishings of the Pei family, including the cloud bed, were ruined.
After venting her anger, she seemed to have finally calmed down a little. She stood up from the edge of the bed, but just as she did so, she subconsciously frowned. Her footsteps suddenly stopped. In the next moment, her spiritual power lifted her body as she tilted her head to swipe a cold glance at Pei Ling.
Just as Pei Ling thought that Fairy Li was going to say something, she turned around and entered the inner room.
Not long after, the sound of running water could be heard from inside, as if she was washing up.
Pei Ling stood rooted on the spot, not daring to breathe.
He did not know why Fairy Li did not kill him, while he did not dare to ask, nor did he dare to run. He could only pray silently that Fairy Li was beautiful and kind to let him off this time…
It was only then when he noticed that the system’s rating panel was still floating in front of him.
“You still have the cheek to ask for a five-star rating?!” Pei Ling was infuriated instantly. He went crazy in his mind. “If I could delete you, I would have made you get lost anytime! I’ll knock you down, do you hear me? I’ll knock you down! Can you not f*cking cause trouble every time you cultivate?! It must be after I managed to escape from Zheng Jingshan and Wu Tingxi that you’re f*cking disappointed. And then you took it even further just to destroy me completely?!”
As he cursed, Pei Ling suddenly felt a lingering fear. Fortunately, it was a dual cultivation method, not the Sunflower Manual1!
“Ding-Dong!” The system said mechanically, “The smart cultivation system is at your service. One-Click Management and fulfill your dream of ascending! I look forward to you sharing your cultivation evaluation. If you are satisfied, you can give me a good five-star evaluation!”
“Get lost! Get lost right now!!” Pei Ling spat.
“**** this stupid system! And you want a five-star rating?! You f*cking************** system! I’m ******!!! I even think it’s too much to give you a one-star rating!!”
With that, he gave a five-star rating without hesitation.
“Ding-dong!” Perhaps it was because Pei Ling had given it a good rating, the system did not remain silent after obtaining the one-star rating in the previous two times. It rang again. “Thank you for the host’s heartfelt rating.”
Right on the heels of that, a terrifying scenario repeated itself!
The system replied, “Ding Dong! The host has given a five-star rating. The system will give you an Essence Augmenting Pill for free.”
“Oh ****!”
Before he could think further, the system had already taken over his body. His body walked forward in large strides and took out a pouch with black bottom and silver pattern from the torn dress of Fairy Li on the ground. After opening it, he took out a jade bottle and promptly poured out the only pill inside. He held it in his hand, then casually threw the pouch aside. “Ding Dong! The Essence Augmenting Pill has been gifted to you. Thank you for using the smart cultivation system. One-Click Management without worries and fulfill your dream of ascending!”
So I basically slept with the future Saintess, then stole her items to reward myself???
What kind of f*cking scum system would do such a thing???
He hurriedly picked up the pouch with the mysterious silver pattern from the floor before Fairy Li came out, wanting to return the Essence Augmenting Pill.
However, just as he opened the pouch and was about to take out the jade bottle, the sound of water suddenly stopped.
Pei Ling shuddered and subconsciously closed the pouch before stuffing it under a few pieces of torn clothes.
In the next moment, Fairy Li, whose long hair was slightly wet, walked out gracefully in a slightly different styled black gauze dress.
With a cold expression, she did not look at Pei Ling. Instead, she rushed to the area of her torn dress and began searching for something.
Pei Ling: “…!”
Fairy Li quickly found the pouch that he had handled. After opening it, she took out the jade bottle inside and poured it down, but there was nothing. This caused a hint of surprise to appear on her beautiful face. She stared at the jade bottle and fell into deep thought.
Pei Ling, who had witnessed all of this, held his breath. His eyes widened and his mind almost stopped.
The only Essence Augmenting Pill remained tightly clenched in his palm after the system returned control to his body…
Fortunately, the wind chimes under the eaves suddenly moved without any wind, emitting a few crisp sounds.
Pei Ling felt dizzy. In his shock, he hurriedly bit the tip of his tongue and forced himself to wake up.
Meanwhile, Fairy Li looked outside the door suddenly, her eyes filled with faint murderous intent!
“Senior Sister.” After a moment, a series of footsteps sounded from outside the door. Immediately, Pei Hongnian probed carefully, “Senior Sister. May I ask if you would like to stay in my residence for a few more days? Senior Brother Zheng has already chased outside of the city for dozens of kilometers, but he hasn’t found it…”
Before he could finish, he was interrupted by Fairy Li’s cold voice. “Zheng Jingshan!”
“…Senior Sister, I’m here.” Pei Hongnian went silent immediately. After a short silence, Zheng Jingshan’s voice sounded carefully after Pei Hongnian. “Senior Sister, although Wu Tingxi was already seriously injured when he escaped to Yuanmu Mountain, he is still Elder Luo’s disciple. Pei Ling is only at the third stage of Qi Refinement, but he was able to find and kill him before anyone else. He even took the cultivation technique jade slip. I’m afraid there’s more to him than meets the eye.”
“I thought that this person might have some secret, so I will capture him not only to vent my anger…”
Fairy Li did not answer, and Zheng Jingshan’s tone became even more apprehensive. “So may I ask Senior Sister, can you give me three days to find him and grind his bones into ashes?”
Pei Ling did not dare to make a sound while he stole a peek at Fairy Li.
Fairy Li remained expressionless. Suddenly, she flicked her finger and shook open the door of the temple before walking out slowly.
Outside, Zheng Jingshan had forced Pei Hongnian to come and speak for him, but Fairy Li had exposed him and he was panicking. When his senior sister walked out, he heaved a sigh of relief. He thought that she was going to ask about the details, so he quickly stepped forward. Just as he was about to speak, he was shocked to see Pei Ling, who looked hesitant, standing by the door.
“You’re Pei Ling! How dare you disturb your Senior Sister?!” Zheng Jingshan was shocked and hurriedly said to Fairy Li, “Senior Sister, but this person’s words and actions are…”
Before he could finish his sentence, Fairy Li raised her hand and slapped him heavily on the face.
Although she had not recovered from her serious injuries, this slap had no issues sending Zheng Jingshan flying backward and smashing him against the wall.
Zheng Jingshan slid down the cracked wall and fell to the ground. He opened its mouth and spat out two teeth. He could not care less about his swollen face as he looked at Fairy Li in shock and confusion.
Pei Hongnian, who was at the side, was also puzzled as to why Pei Ling was here. Still, he would not dare ask under the circumstances.
In fact, from Pei Ling’s point of view, this Pei family’s eldest son, recognized as the most outstanding youth genius of the young generation, was trembling and was about to leave.
Fairy Li ignored them as she took out a miniature black jade boat from somewhere. With a hand seal, the boat swelled up against the wind and instantly transformed into a three-decker tower ship that floated in the air.
The wind chime did not need Fairy Li’s command as it flickered on its own accord, emitting a pleasant sound. In a daze, Pei Ling saw that it was already hanging from the corner of the ship.
Fairy Li was the first to go up. With a flick of her sleeve, she instructed coldly, “Return to the sect!”
Pei Ling heaved a sigh of relief. He was hoping that everyone would leave so that he could hide the Essence Augmenting Pill alone. However, after Pei Hongnian helped the limping Zheng Jingshan up, the boat did not move.
Just as Pei Ling was puzzled, Zheng Jingshan noticed him and immediately turned around to scold him, “Bastard! What are you still standing there for? Get here quickly!”
