OMG! I Transmigrated into Four Books at the Same Time!-Chapter 17 - 16 Myriad Magic Forbidden Land
Chapter 17: Chapter 16 Myriad Magic Forbidden Land
Shi Nian looked at the baldy, her face showing deep thought.
The feathers of this bald chicken, for her, were really quite useful indeed.
Taking someone's thing and then driving them away doesn't seem very ethical.
But...
This is Junior Sister Yu's pet, what does it mean for it to follow me without rhyme or reason?
Shi Nian looked at that feather with a bit of heartache, then said, "Baldy, your skill is really handy, and we seem to be a good match. But I'm sorry. I can't keep you."
As Shi Nian spoke, she started feeling guilty.
Why does her speech sound like that of a playboy?
Shi Nian awkwardly handed the feather back and said, "Since you've followed Junior Sister Yu, then you're Junior Sister Yu's dog... chicken. A good chicken should be faithful from beginning to end. I know I'm great and you can't help wanting to switch your loyalty to me, but there's no future between us. You should go, go back to Junior Sister Yu."
Looking at the feather, a tear rolled down the corner of Shi Nian's mouth.
Once upon a time.
The most suitable treasure for escaping presented itself before her.
She didn't cherish it.
Wuu wuu wuu wuu.
"Go quickly, pretend we never met." Shi Nian cried behind her hands.
The bald chicken became even more afraid, wrapping its wings around Shi Nian's legs, crying miserably: "Master, don't drive me away. Believe me, there's only you in my heart."
"I also want to keep you, but I can't. We really shouldn't do this. If we do, where does that leave Junior Sister Yu?" Shi Nian wiped her tears: "Baldy, we're just fated to meet, but not destined to be together."
"Master, I won't leave. No matter what you say, I'm not leaving." Baldy cried even more intensely.
System: "..."
If one didn't know this was a human and a chicken, one would think they were watching some tear-jerking drama.
"Forget it." Shi Nian looked troubledly at Baldy who refused to leave, and sighed: "Tomorrow, I will personally take you to Junior Sister Yu. Don't worry, I'm not the kind of maniac you think. I won't do anything to you, rest assured and go to Junior Sister Yu."
Baldy didn't believe it at all, trembling while continuing to show its loyalty.
Shi Nian sighed, "Forget it, it's getting late, let's rest. We'll talk about everything tomorrow."
Baldy nodded timidly, trembling.
At least.
Did it manage to save its chicken life for today?
Thousands of miles away.
"Cough cough cough."
A frail-looking man walked for a while, then paused to spit out a mouthful of blood into the wind.
After spitting blood, he'd continue walking, stop every so often, and spit more blood.
The scene was quite inspirational.
"Almost there." The man glanced into the distance, a profound light flashing in his eyes.
At that moment.
A fuzzy little chick suddenly popped its head out from his embrace.
"Chirp chirp chirp chirp."
The little chick seem to be saying something anxiously.
Surprise flashed in the man's eyes.
"You say, your brother, it took a master?"
"Chirp chirp chirp chirp."
"In the direction we're going?"
The man showed a contemplative smile.
That day.
He found an egg.
Out of the egg hatched twin chicks.
Little Yellow, seeing him as the first person, considered him as its father and recognized him as its master right away.
The other chick, however, never recognized a master.
According to Little Yellow's feedback.
It was because after recognizing a master, its big brother despised the name Little Yellow for being too unpleasant, doubted his taste in naming, so it refused to recognize a master.
So.
This fellow has now taken a master.
Is it because...
The new owner is good at naming?
Very good.
Then he shall go and ask for some advice.
Xiao Huang said.
The direction of the recognition pulse comes from the same direction he was heading.
In this thousand-mile radius, only Divine Martial Sect stands supremely alone.
For Xiao Huang to voluntarily recognize a master, it must be someone with astonishing talent. Most likely, it's someone from Divine Martial Sect.
Well, that makes our goals aligned.
The man gave a slight smile.
Facing the wind, he spat out a few more mouthfuls of blood.
"Chirp chirp chirp." Xiao Huang rubbed against his master's chest anxiously, its body began to flash with silver-white light.
The next moment. The man touched Xiao Huang, interrupting its actions.
"I'm fine," the man said softly, "You shouldn't use your powers so casually. To save my life before, you exhausted all your cultivation, and it's already remarkable that you can maintain this state. Don't worry about me constantly spitting blood, it's just stasis that's being expelled, and I've gotten used to it. My body has improved a lot compared to when I was first injured, it's nothing serious."
"Chirp chirp chirp chirp."
"Alright, be good. In two more days, we will reach Divine Martial Sect, and then you can properly heal."
"Chirp chirp chirp chirp."
Taking advantage of the night, the man and the chicken continued on their difficult journey.
The next day.
It was still not fully light when Shi Nian got up.
Updat𝓮d from freewēbnoveℓ.com.
If nothing unexpected happens, she used to meet with Ling Tian Sword Master early every morning.
"Junior Sister Yu must be awake by now, and she'll be anxious not seeing you. You should go back to Junior Sister Yu first," Shi Nian said.
The baldie looked terrified: "I won't leave, I won't see anyone until the master comes back."
Shi Nian couldn't help but roll her eyes.
Am I that scary?
Really.
I'm such a cute young girl, where do I seem like a homicidal maniac?
"Just roll back honestly. After I see Master, I'll come find you," Shi Nian said somewhat impatiently.
The baldie hesitated for a moment.
It warily sized up Shi Nian, and seeing that she didn't seem to be speaking sarcastically, it cautiously nodded its head.
Before leaving, it even obsequiously cracked a smile: "Master, you must come."
Shi Nian could only nod.
Only then did the baldie leave, looking back three times with each step.
Soon.
A group of disciples neatly paid their respects to Ling Tian Sword Master.
Ling Tian Sword Master seemed not in the mood to talk much today, gave just a few instructions, and let everyone leave.
Then, he singled out Mu Nanqing to stay.
Ling Tian Sword Master specialized in swordsmanship, but among his disciples, only Mu Nanqing and Yun Jian had inherited the mantle of Sword Master—both rare swordsmanship talents.
The second senior brother Lu Xingzhi cultivated a large saber, and the fifth junior sister preferred to play with various kinds of insects instead.
As for Shi Nian, it's better left unsaid.
Therefore.
Among the disciples, Ling Tian Sword Master often gave extra teachings to Mu Nanqing and Yun Jian.
Everyone was used to it.
Today, when Sword Master kept Mu Nanqing behind alone, no one found it strange, and they quickly left.
Inside the bamboo house.
Silence.
After a long while.
Ling Tian Sword Master looked up, "Nanqing, why do you insist on going to the Myriad Magic Forbidden Land? You know that disciples who enter the Forbidden Land face a nine-in-ten chance of death!"
Mu Nanqing was very calm as she said, "I can't always live under Master's protection. The Myriad Magic Forbidden Land is perilous, but it also possesses endless opportunities. Master, I also want to carve out my own path."
Ling Tian Sword Master sneered: "There are plenty of ways for you to carve your own path. Why must it be the Myriad Magic Forbidden Land?"
Mu Nanqing pressed her lips together and said nothing. But the stubbornness in her eyes showed that she had no intention of changing her mind.
Ling Tian Sword Master looked at her and said emotionlessly, "You think I don't know? You're going to the Forbidden Land for your fourth junior sister, aren't you? You want the Breakthrough Fruit to help her overcome her Qi Cultivation bottleneck, don't you!"
