Duan Changqing had been cultivating the exotic plant, but after the Ghost King came, he stopped.
Although he stopped, pure spiritual energy lingered around the spirit grass.
The purity and density is higher than what he normally feeds Xiaobai. Even after dispersing, the Ghost King’s fox was attracted, acting as close to him as Xiaobai was.
Duan Changqing, who had already withdrawn all the spiritual power from his body, looked at the Ghost King innocently. “What’s wrong?”
The Ghost King communicated with his companion beast as soon as he realized that something was wrong.
After reaching the intermediate level, one can communicate with their companion beast, and even see the world from the perspective of their companion beast.
This way, the combat power of one’s companion beast can be brought into full swing when encountering danger.
The Ghost King shared his perception with his companion beast, and immediately felt the uniqueness of the exotic plant in Duan Changqing’s hand.
“This exotic plant…” The Ghost King looked at the exotic plant in Duan Changqing’s hands in surprise. This exotic plant was at least intermediate, and it was not inferior to the rabbit in his hand in terms of value.
How could there be a mid-level exotic plant in Duan Changqing’s hands?
And the strangeness of his fox before…
Duan Changqing’s spiritual power has disappeared, so the fox no longer paid attention to him and stared at the exotic plant instead.
Having just been nurtured by Duan Changqing with spiritual power, the plant was particularly attractive.
The Ghost King didn’t notice anything unusual, but he had experienced many things, and he always felt that there was something wrong.
He’s afraid his son’s partner isn’t so simple.
The Ghost King had investigated Xie Yunnan before, and because Xie Yunnan had been living here for all his life, he already knew his general life story.
But Duan Changqing…he didn’t find anything.
Today, his fox had such a special reaction, and the Ghost King subconsciously took precaution against Duan Changqing.
He wants to find someone to check this Duan Changqing!
The Ghost King’s thoughts were going in a circle when Xie Yunnan asked curiously, “What’s wrong with this exotic plant?”
When the Ghost King heard his son’s question, he immediately said, “This is a mid-level exotic plant… Where did it come from?”
“I just bought it today.” Xie Yunnan said, “Master, I bought this for you, but I don’t know about exotic plants, so I don’t know if you can use it.”
“This exotic plant is very good. Did it cost a lot of money?” The Ghost King asked. “Where did you buy it?”
After confirming Xie Yunnan’s identity, he arranged for his subordinates to live nearby to protect Xie Yunnan.
His people won’t approach, but they will pay attention to what Xie Yunnan does.
As far as he knew, Xie Yunnan did not leave the town today.
“Bought it from a mercenary who came for car repairs.” Xie Yunnan retold what happened during the day.
Ghost King: “…” His son is not only talented, but also lucky!
10,000 to buy an intermediate exotic plant? It’s a stroke of luck, right?
Wait, why was this exotic plant planted in a broken bowl?
The Ghost King who suddenly discovered that the exotic plant was planted in the bowl was a little confused. Such plants are very picky about where they grow, and often wither after being transplanted.
But this one still looks so good!
“Master, this exotic plant is for you.” Xie Yunnan said.
“This exotic plant, you can keep it for yourself, I don’t need it.” Ghost King said. This exotic plant is very precious, especially in a place like Hongye City.
It’s a waste to use it for him, it’s better for Xie Yunnan to use it.
“Master, this is for you, you must have a subordinate.” Xie Yunnan said.
The Ghost King wanted to refuse, but Duan Changqing suddenly sent the exotic plant to the fox’s mouth.
The fox swallowed the exotic plant in one bite.
Ghost King: “…”
The nine-tailed fox looked at the Ghost King innocently. After eating, he looked at Xiaobai who was being held by Duan Changqing, and then… wagged his tail.
You are a fox! Why are you wagging your tail! The Ghost King was speechless as he looked at his companion beast.
And soon, he was stunned again.
After his companion beast ate the exotic plant, he actually felt that his injury was a little better.
Does this exotic plant have a therapeutic effect?
Plants with therapeutic effects are another level of preciousness.
It’s a pity that this exotic plant is not a high-level one. It can only make him feel better, but it has little effect on his injury.
So this is why his fox valued the plant.
The Ghost King glanced at Duan Changqing and began to teach Xie Yunnan how to improve his strength.
To improve strength is very simple, the first thing is to have enough resources, such as exotic meat or plants.
Then there is the exercise. Most of these exercises are aimed at companion animals.
“The most important thing, of course, is actual combat. Only through actual combat can you and your companion beast cooperate more tacitly…”
Xie Yunnan listened carefully.
Duan Changqing was a little speechless.
Companion beasts are actually one’s true body, but instead of normal exercise, they let their true body fight… If the main body is injured, it will damage their foundation!
As for exotic animal meat and exotic plants, they should not be eaten indiscriminately. It’s too easy to accumulate impurities.
If things are like this, most warriors should have problems with their bodies.
Speaking of which, the fox in front of him also has many injuries.
But he didn’t know if this fox was friend or foe… so Duan Changqing didn’t say much.
As for Xie Yunnan’s cultivation… With him by his side, there is no need to worry about Xie Yunnan having problems.
After explaining some things, the Ghost King said, “I’m going to make dinner.” The exotic beasts he brought can be used for dinner.
“I’ll do it.” Duan Changqing said. If he handles it, the spiritual power in the exotic beast can be preserved to the maximum extent.
“Okay, you do it!” The Ghost King’s eyes lit up, and he looked at Xie Yunnan again. “He cooks, Xiaobai stays here, and I teach you how to train Xiaobai!”
Last night, he actually had a chance to get close to Xiaobai, but after eating, Xie Yunnan was already drowsy. He didn’t want to disturb his son, so he left early.
Fortunately, there is now a chance!
Although Xie Yunnan’s companion beast is a little bigger, it still looks like a puppy. Very cute. The Ghost King even feels embarrassed to train against such a companion beast.
En, wait for it to grow up and then train it well. Focus on cultivating feelings now.
The corners of the Ghost King’s mouth curled up, making his scarred face even more terrifying.
At this time, Duan Changqing put Xiaobai in Xie Yunnan’s hands. “Yunnan, take Xiaobai to train. Mr. Xie may not always be free to teach you. Once you learn it, you can train Xiaobai yourself.”
Xie Yunnan nodded, hugged Xiaobai and asked the Ghost King, “Master, how do I train?”
“Give me Xiaobai, and I’ll show you a demonstration.” The Ghost King said.
“No, I’ll do it myself, Xiaobai’s temper is not very good…” Xiaobai is a little lively, and Xie Yunnan was afraid that Xiaobai would not be obedient and give his master a bad impression.
Ghost King: “…” He doesn’t mind Xiaobai’s disobedience! He just wants to get close!
But if he insists on asking Xie Yunnan to give him Xiaobai it will seem like he has ulterior motives.
In the end, the Ghost King could only guide on the side. He secretly reached out and touched two handfuls of Xiaobai’s hair.
“Woof woof.” Xiaobai liked the Ghost King very much. When the Ghost King stretched out his hand, he stopped training. Instead, he fluttered the Ghost King’s hand and even caught the Ghost King.
Seeing this, Xie Yunnan hurriedly took Xiaobai back. “Master, Xiaobai is still young…” After saying that, Xie Yunnan felt a little embarrassed. Although Xiaobai looks small, he’s already an adult…
As a result, the Ghost King hurriedly answered: “Yes, Xiaobai is still too young, let him rest, don’t worry.”
Xie Yunnan was a little stunned, they didn’t actually do any training just now…
But the heartache in his master’s eyes was so sincere.
Running a few laps in the house is considered training?
While cooking, Duan Changqing kept observing the situation outside. Seeing that Xiaobai was not taken advantage of by Xie Yunnan’s master, he was relieved.
At the same time, the plantation.
The Ghost King’s subordinates had already started to eat dinner. When they were eating, they all sighed: “The boss won’t come back…”
When their boss was by their side, they were a little scared. But their boss doesn’t care about them these days… and they miss it a bit.
“Now, the boss only thinks about Xie Yunnan.”
“The boss really doesn’t like Xie Yunnan? Even if he wants to accept an apprentice, he doesn’t have to be so good to others?”
“Yeah, let us protect him.”
“Go, let’s investigate Xie Yunnan and his partner.”
“What kind of magic does this Xie Yunnan have?”
…
They still can’t understand why their boss was so kind to Xie Yunnan.
Because their boss attaches great importance to Xie Yunnan, they will naturally not underestimate him.
As the Ghost King’s subordinates discussed Xie Yunnan, on the other side, Liao Muye was also asking his subordinates about Xie Yunnan.
The last time he went to Xie Yunnan and found that Xie Yunnan actually liked that Duan Changqing, he couldn’t express his anger.
Xie Yunnan doesn’t like him, but he likes such a thing… How can this not make him angry?
But he did nothing.
He wanted to see what Xie Yunnan would be like if he fell in love with such a person without his help!
With this idea in mind, Liao Muye asked his subordinates to pay attention to Xie Yunnan’s situation, and he inquired about it every day.
As long as he learned that Xie Yunnan was repairing cars, he was in a good mood.
He likes watching Xie Yunnan struggle at the bottom most.
“Xie Yunnan has been in the car repair shop all day today…” Liao Muye’s subordinates told Liao Muye what Xie Yunnan had done today, and added, “The owner of the plantation that Xie Yunnan rescued might have some problems. He brought an exotic beast to Xie Yunnan today.”
“An exotic beast?” Liao Muye was surprised: “Is there a picture of him?”
Liao Muye knew about Xie Yunnan’s rescue of a plantation owner, but before that did not understand.
“Yes.” The subordinate found a picture of the Ghost King standing in front of the car repair shop and gave it to Liao Muye.
Liao Muye was shocked.
He knew this face, it was the true face of the Ghost King!
After he was kicked by the Ghost King, he wanted to go find the Ghost King, but had no time. As a result, the Ghost King was rescued by Xie Yunnan?
With the Ghost King’s strength, can Xie Yunnan save him?
If the Ghost King really needs Xie Yunnan’s rescue, it means that he is dying… A dying person can come to the door in thanks after a day?
When he and Xie Yunnan rescued the Ghost King in his last life, the Ghost King was unable to move for a long time!
Liao Muye suddenly remembered something. A few days ago, he wanted to save the Ghost King but was kicked aside… Xie Yunnan was about to pass that road.
The Ghost King is pretending to be injured and wants Xie Yunnan to save him?
Why on earth would he do this?
And one other thing!
The riot of exotic beasts in Hongye Forest didn’t happen, but the Ghost King still planned to let Xie Yunnan save him…
Could it be that the Ghost King was also reborn?
If so, things make sense!
He said how could there be no accident in Hongye Forest! The Ghost King knows the situation of Hongye Forest in his previous life. If he is reborn, of course he can prevent it from happening!
It’s just, is the Ghost King crazy? In his last life, he treated Xie Yunnan so well, and left all his power to Xie Yunnan. In this life, he still came to help Xie Yunnan?
Is he repaying his gratitude endlessly?
But… he clearly had a share in saving this person back then!
Also, after being reborn, shouldn’t he seek a better life? Why does he seek to listen to Xie Yunnan?
Liao Muye stood up abruptly – he was going to see the Ghost King.
The Ghost King did not know that he was suspected of being reborn.
——–
Duan Changqing cooked the rabbit, and they had dinner at Xie Yunnan’s house.
“Your cooking skills are not good enough, you’d better practice more.” The Ghost King took a bite and looked at Duan Changqing – this rabbit’s cooking is not as good as his!
Even so, since this is an exotic beast, he didn’t dislike it for the energy.
The exotic beast he hunted… contained a lot of energy!
He made it with great effort and kept most of its spiritual power, how could this person despise him? Duan Changqing immediately looked at Xie Yunnan. “Brother Yunnan, isn’t my cooking delicious?”
“Your cooking is delicious, I like it very much. Master, he may have a different taste from us,” Xie Yunnan said. “Master, I’ll cook it next time, I’m good at cooking.”
“You want to be a warrior, you don’t need to do this.” The Ghost King said.
“No need… I just want to respect you, Master.” Xie Yunnan said with a smile.
The Ghost King was a little happy.
But after a while, the Ghost King couldn’t help but say to Duan Changqing: “Your companion beast is a little chipmunk. Eating so much, aren’t you afraid of a stomach ache?”
“I’m in good health.”
“You’re so skinny and still say you’re in good health?” The Ghost King sneered.
“Brother Yunnan likes me like this.” Duan Changqing looked at Xie Yunnan again with a smile.
Ghost King: “…” I’m pissed!
Xie Yunnan looked a little helpless as they exchanged tit for tat.
Why does he feel… He seems to be caught between his mother-in-law and his daughter-in-law, and can only please both sides?
That Ghost King and DCQ.
