Chapter Fourteen: Elder Yu

After Senior Brother Ouyang’s series of inhuman actions, the tiger demon has been initially intimidated.

As for what happened next, it was nothing more than coercion and enticement; he easily subdued this tiger demon who had reached the ninth level of Qi cultivation.

Although he claims to have mastered the ninth level of Qi cultivation, his cultivation level was actually obtained through fortuitous encounters, and his intelligence and combat strength are not yet fully developed.

“The danger has passed, Junior Brother, you can now train with peace of mind.”

Having accomplished all this, Senior Brother Ouyang patted Lin Jing on the shoulder earnestly, showing great optimism about Lin Jing’s future.

After all, Lin Jing was a ruthless person determined to cooperate with the Demon King in the long term. He believed that with a little guidance, his beast tamer Genius would definitely be no less powerful than his own.

“Thank you for your guidance, Senior Brother.” Lin Jing nodded.

Then, Senior Brother Ouyang laughed heartily and rode away on his tiger demon.

“Then I’ll go hand in my mission, Senior Brother.”

Watching Senior Brother Ouyang’s departing figure, Lin Jing hesitated, then said, “I may not be able to subdue Yao Beast like he did.”

“Squeak…” Pine Leaf Rat nodded slightly. It’s best not to follow this advice; it seems very unreliable.

Lin Jing looked around: “Now that Senior Brother Ouyang has taken away the biggest trouble, it’s time for our hunt. I want to eat fish tonight, let’s go catch one first.”

Pine Leaf Rat asked curiously, “What kind of fish is that?”

“ Squirrel fish”.

“???”

…

On Tiger Peak, where the highest level is only the first level of the Yao Beast, Lin Jing and Pine Leaf Rat are invincible.

Unlike the Outer Sect Disciple who have experienced less, Lin Jing has been kidnapped by a fairy trafficker and threatened by the Black Bear Elder. Her mentality is already very strong, and she does not need to undergo this training.

He came here simply to purchase goods.

As the sun set, the old man guarding Tiger Peak saw Lin Jing leisurely walk away with Pine Leaf Rat, carrying a rope laden with all sorts of wild game, including rabbits, wild boars, and pheasants.

The old man didn’t pay attention; many Outer Sect Disciple would choose to hunt when they were starving.

Not long after they returned to the courtyard, Pine Leaf Rat began to subtly hint at things to Lin Jing.

The contract has also been signed;

Regardless of whether the food was nutritious or not, they also hunted some.

Next, shouldn’t we figure out how to implement Storage Pouch?

Pine Leaf Rat hasn’t forgotten its Storage Pouch; it came out of retirement specifically for that.

Just now, it used the Red Flying Leaf to show off its skills in Tiger Mountain, easily defeating many ferocious beasts.

It felt more comfortable using the Red Flying Leaf than ordinary leaves.

It decided to synthesize hundreds of millions of Red Flying Leaves using Glazed Immortal Eyes later.

The thought of having hundreds of millions of Red Flying Leaves but nowhere to carry them made Pine Leaf Rat feel depressed and insecure.

“I remember.” Lin Jing also realized that with Pine Leaf Rat’s current Divine Ability, it seemed that he could start making money, and Storage Pouch was not far away.

“The fastest way to make money is simply to sell golden spiritual rice and profit from the price difference.”

“However, considering that using your eye technique will consume a lot of energy, and that you haven’t reported your racial mutation to Elder yet, it’s best if we don’t reveal the Glazed Immortal Eyes for the time being.”

“Besides that, the only way to quickly earn Spirit Stones is through Sect missions.”

Although Pine Leaf Rat could apply for improved Disciple benefits by using his Precious Beast status once Elder returns, Geniuses like Senior Brother Ouyang, who have been chosen by the Sect Master, are still working hard on Sect missions to earn rewards. Lin Jing is also unwilling to be a lazy bum who just loafs around.

Most importantly, to be promoted to Inner Sect Disciple, in addition to the required strength, there is also a requirement for Sect contribution points. In order to obtain Sect contribution points, you have to perform Sect tasks, which is unavoidable and will have to be done sooner or later.

Lin Jing longed to join the inner sect.

Since Senior Brother Ouyang was able to obtain his innate beast-taming space, Magic Treasure, at the Inner Sect Disciple stage, he also wanted one.

Lin Jing felt envious; this was something even better than the Storage Pouch. With this, she wouldn’t have to carry the Pine Leaf Rat around every day.

For some reason, Pine Leaf Rat liked to stand on Dao’s shoulders, a habit Lin Jing thought was inappropriate.

It’s still early, but given time, he can already foresee that one of his shoulders will be higher than the other.

“Squeak!” Pine Leaf Rat said, indicating that he would do whatever Lin Jing said, and then… dragged the cloth bag out of the courtyard and ran to pick leaves from the trees by the roadside.

The leaves in its own yard have been completely plucked, and if it wants to continue synthesizing Red Flying Leaf, it has to go outside to pick more.

As for using spiritual energy to accelerate ripening… wasting spiritual energy on such a place is too extravagant, after all, there are leaves all over the mountains and fields.

It would be better to save the spiritual energy to accelerate the ripening of spirit rice and spirit beans.

That evening, an Outer Sect Disciple passing by saw a squirrel carrying a large bag of leaves, hopping back and forth.

“How pitiful…” Two female Discords saw Pine Leaf Rat collecting tattered leaves and exclaimed, “Who is its Beast Master? It can’t even feed its own Pet Beast and has to come out and find leaves to eat on its own…”

Pine Leaf Rat didn’t stop until the next morning, collecting leaves until their yard was piled high with them.

When Lin Jing woke up and was about to go to the Task Hall to see if there were any suitable tasks, Pine Leaf Rat dragged in a huge sack again.

In addition, it also had a delicate pink cloth bag in its hand.

Seeing this, Lin Jing rubbed her eyes and said, “Where did you find this? I don’t remember having a bag like this.”

“Squeak! Squeak!” Pine Leaf Rat opened the cloth bag, revealing several pine cones inside!

It was said that a kind and beautiful senior sister who happened to be passing by gave it to it, and told it to eat more nutritious food and stop eating leaves.

“It must be because you were collecting leaves everywhere that the other Senior Sisters misunderstood something. Don’t take other people’s things in the future,” Lin Jing said helplessly.

Pine Leaf Rat nodded, then scanned a few Pine Cones with Glazed Immortal Eyes.

Nothing happened.

…

Outer Sect, Task Hall.

Because it was still early, there weren’t many people inside besides a Senior Brother. There were only four Outer Sect Disciple looking for a mission. They seemed to know each other and wanted to team up for the mission, discussing whether to eliminate the snake demon or the pig demon.

The supervisor, Senior Brother, was engrossed in reading a book, but his service wasn’t as good as Senior Brother Ouyang’s. Lin Jing browsed the task wall on her own.

After looking around, he realized that apart from missions that required leaving the sect, there weren’t many missions suitable for him and Pine Leaf Rat.

Leaving the sect is impossible unless you can find a bodyguard with a high Realm level to accompany you, preferably at the Golden Core Stage or above.

As for sect missions, such as going to the Sect Spirit Field to help out… the cost-effectiveness is too low. If you want to save up enough money to buy a Storage Pouch and the contribution points to advance to the inner sect through these missions, it will be a long time coming.

Although he certainly has plenty of time.

Just as Lin Jing was struggling with her decision, the Task Hall suddenly fell silent as an elderly man in a blue robe entered.

“Greetings, Elder Yu.” The four Outer Sect Disciple noticed immediately and greeted him respectfully, while the Senior Brother, who was reading miscellaneous books, also stood up abruptly and put down “My Blade Spirit Wife”.
