Bai Feng's melancholic mood infected Mo Pian as well for some reason, as he felt just a little bit exhausted with a tinge of wanting to do nothing for a while, seemingly as if he didn't have any goal.
Bai Feng sighed as he looked at the drifting clouds through the moving leaves at the top of the tree. A small ray of light went through the gap of the leaves, only for the leaves to move and cover it a split second later.
Mo Pian didn't lean on the tree and sit down like Bai Feng was doing as he was keeping a hand on the tree while he looked at the day sky, which was filled with fluffy clouds- did Bai Feng really didn't have any goal that he could call his own?
He could understand what Bai Feng was going through, somewhat. As he didn't use to have a goal for quite a long time, but it didn't affect him that much. Back then, he was still drifting through life, and he didn't care much about that aspect of it. Especially because he wasn't a cultivator back then.<
The hooded person soon realized that they were stuck along with Bai Feng, and no matter how hard they tried to kick Bai Feng's hands away from their left leg, it ended up with them actually hurting themselves.Bai Feng's defensive powers had exploded after his last breakthrough, and the hooded person was so flustered that they forgot to infuse ki into their attempt at removing Bai Feng's hand from their ankles."Ok, you aren't what you appear on the surface..."The hooded person said as they admitted defeat. Bai Feng laughed as he struggled out of his rocky prison and got out of the hole he had been imprisoned in after releasing the hooded person's left leg.The person shook their leg for a little bit of time to get the blood back flowing. Before glancing at Bai Feng. Who returned to his new fit form.Bai Feng glanced at the hooded person and asked once again:"So, how is she doing?"The hooded person shook their head as they said:
Bai Feng could still feel somewhat exhausted mentally as he opened the door of his house and left. There was no information that Aura could help him with. Unfortunately, she had already expressed her concern for his situation, and she had no solution. Even though being a water spirit meant she was supposed to have purifying capabilities. Which should have helped with his mental exhaustion, but it seemed that her capabilities didn't reach that level of purification.According to herself, she was pretty young at a spirit's age, and she didn't have enough time to mature and become stronger. Unfortunately, she didn't have any opportunities to get stronger as she was locked in that river for such a long time.She felt rather bad that she couldn't help Bai Feng with his current issue, and she started to mull upon Mo Pian's words, thinking that she might encounter even more situations like this in the future.Was he right? Aura stood in the jewel space, pondering if sh
Bai Feng was quickly making his way back home. He stored the intricate box into his pouch, and he couldn't wait to use the pill inside to get rid of his headache.Fortunately, there were no troubles, and he reached his house with no problems.He quickly inserted the key into the keyhole of his door and entered before closing the door behind him.Bai Feng sighed as he directly went to his bedroom and opened his pouch before placing it on his nightstand and taking out the intricate box that he got from Chitong.He opened it slowly and inside of it. He saw it, the remedy to his headache.It was a tiny blue-colored pill. That had an intricate design on its front part that depicted a phoenix ready to fly up into the skies, a fire was surrounding the phoenix, and it had its beak open. Seemingly trying to cry out how majestic it was.The image was rather vivid, and Bai Feng could see a small introduction to the pill on the inside of the box's lid.<
Bai Feng smiled, seeing how Aura and the owl acted. It was almost as if Aura was his cheeky wife and the owl was their hungry child. It was quite a funny sight as Bai Feng- made his way to the table and sat down opposite Aura- After he placed all of the food on the table. The shrimp, swordfish, and other crustaceans had a very tantalizing smell as Bai Feng started to pour the sauce he made onto them. The smell was getting more intense the more sauce was poured, and Aura started to salivate. She couldn't help but want to dig in already, just like the owl did. However, she had some self-control as she waited for Bai Feng to finish preparing everything aesthetically. Bai Feng finished by giving a chef kiss as he had seen Mo Pian do it a few times while they were cooking together. "Well, let's dig in!" Bai Feng started with some swordfishes, which he started to devour at a quick speed, making the owl who didn't finish its meal quic
Bai Feng yawned as he got up from the bed. He had only slept for one hour as his need for sleep had gone lower and lower to the point that his sleeping schedule relied on power naps every 6-7 days. Time passed rather quickly as he went into a daily routine of= eating, accumulating Qi into his body, and going around the sect to familiarize himself more with it. Bai Feng wanted to go to work at the casino more, but the thing was that he wasn't needed there anymore as the other blackjack dealers could handle the few customers that wanted to play blackjack. Since he couldn't work, he decided to explore the sect. For some time, until Mo Pian woke up. This way, he had met with some people that he befriended, but he wasn't sure how honest they were with him. Bai Feng was rather good at reading people, and he realized that they were only hanging out with him for a certain purpose. They didn't seem to have bad intentions towards him, but they weren't h
Bai Feng felt his mouth-watering. As he thought about what new delicacy could Mo Pian has come to make during his closed-door cultivation. It was very tempting to taste a new dish created during moments of enlightenment.What type of recipe could he have come up with?Bai Feng shook his head to clear it before saying:"Before you can make a new dish for me... Why don't you taste a few of my dishes?"Bai Feng's foot kicked the floor beneath him, creating a small shockwave and making the container near the counter open and throw a few ingredients such as fish, shrimp, and other marine life on the counter. Bai Feng did a backflip appearing on the other side of the counter as he took a knife which he skillfully used to cut the ingredients in front of him.Mo Pian whistled as he saw Bai Feng's newly improved skill in cooking. It was a little bit showy, which wasn't Mo Pian's preferred style. But he could see through the show that Bai Feng was putting, a
Mo Pian immediately stopped cooking the moment that Bai Feng got his attention.Bai Feng then told him:"I understand why I'm not reaching a breakthrough even though I have eaten so many dishes as it seems that while you have improved the recipe for this particular dish. It's still not enough for my body.""The explosion of Qi that comes when I eat the dish is something that gives the illusion that there's a lot of Qi in the dish. Of course, for Qi cultivators like you, it may seem a lot and a great improvement from the last dish, but it seems that it isn't the same for me."Mo Pian nodded at the feedback and stopped cooking the same dish as before. He scratched his head and asked:"You still need to breakthrough as you are so close to it, but I don't think I'm inspired enough to create a new recipe that could help you right now."Bai Feng shook his head as he glanced at the crates, which were kept cool and nice in Mo Pian's kitchen.
Bai Feng could hardly open his eyes as Aura materialized in front of him. Her form was transparent as she endured the flames which were running around Bai Feng's form.Because of their connection, Aura had to withstand the flame torture as well. Familiars usually took a quarter of the brunt from the tribulations of their partners. However, that didn't mean the tribulation was getting easier on Bai Feng. Aura just experienced a quarter of the power that was rushing through Bai Feng.But now that she was outside the jewel, the full brunt of the fire was downing upon her. She was a water spirit, so she was supposed to be strong against fire, but a fire in such high amounts of such high quality seemed to make her counter attribute useless.She gritted her teeth as he feeble weak palms approached Bai Feng's flaming body, but Bai Feng shook his head as well as he could while enduring the pain as he opened his mouth to warn her:"You will dissipate if you make d
