Chapter 91: Between Him and Me, Who Has the Better Hair Stitching?
Chapter 91: Between Him and Me, Who Has the Better Hair Stitching?
"Aran, let me comb your hair!" Yuan Ying said as he stepped forward to Jing Ran, who was already dressed and had a red mark on her forehead.
Jing Ran didn't refuse and handed the hairband to Jing Shu. Jing Shu's hair was indeed styled better than his.
"Alright." Yuan Ying looked at Jing Ran's high ponytail with satisfaction, then moved closer to Jing Ran.
"Whose hair looks better, his or mine?"
Jingran glanced at him helplessly. Aren't they all the same? Why do we need to compare them?
Jing Ran raised her hand and pressed it against the red mark on the Nascent Soul's forehead, releasing cool spiritual energy from her fingertips. The mark quickly faded.
Jing Ran stood up and took Yuan Ying's hand. "Let's go. We should continue our journey after we finish eating."
The nascent soul looked down at the hand being held, obediently followed, and did not bring up the question again.
Master took his hand! Master really does like him the most!
Downstairs, Jingyou had gotten up early to cook breakfast. When he saw Jingshu and Jingran come down, he quickly swallowed the food in his mouth.
"Brother, Immortal Venerable, I've already ordered your food. It should be served shortly."
After learning about Jingran's situation yesterday, Jingyou changed his way of addressing her, even though Jingran said he didn't need to call her that. Jingyou listened but insisted on not changing it.
Jingyou always felt it was strange to call Hanluo Immortal Venerable by his real name, even though it wasn't his real name.
No sooner had he finished speaking than the waiter brought out the food—half of the dishes were sweet and half were spicy.
Jingyou remembered it clearly: his brother liked spicy food, while Hanluo Immortal Venerable liked sweet food. Feeling his brother's approving gaze, Jingyou proudly raised his head.
"Aran, you must be tired from traveling. Do you need me to take you with me?" Yuan Ying sat down and placed the sweet dishes on Jingran's side.
“?” Jingyou looked at Jingshu. As soon as his brother spoke, he knew it was that Nascent Soul cultivator brother.
Is this happening one per day?
"No need." Jing Ran shook her head slightly. "Let's continue on our way as we did yesterday."
"Oh." The Nascent Soul was slightly disappointed; he could have easily carried his master on the journey.
The nascent soul's eyes darted around, and it suddenly changed the subject.
"Xiaoyou."
The nascent soul looked at Jingyou, who had already finished eating and was trying to blend into the air.
"If you've eaten, you can continue your journey. You know the route. Ran and I will come find you after we finish eating."
"Okay." Jingyou got up and left readily. After a night, he was fine and had just eaten. Jingyou felt extremely comfortable.
The remaining two finished their meal leisurely. After Yuan Ying settled the bill for the meal and lodging, he followed Jing Ran outside.
"Aran, Xiaoyou should have run far away by now. Let's fly on our swords and go find him," the Nascent Soul suggested.
“Okay.” Jing Ran summoned the Snow Condensation Sword, and seeing that the Nascent Soul was still standing still, asked in confusion.
"what happened?"
"Aran, I don't have any magic artifacts. Can you give me a ride?" the Nascent Soul asked pitifully.
Golden Core cultivators can fly, but for long-distance flight, having a magical artifact as a carrier would save a lot of spiritual energy. The Nascent Soul cultivator thought of this when Jing Ran rejected him.
Jing Ran knew perfectly well that Jing Shu was doing it on purpose, but he was happy to indulge him.
"Come up." Jing Ran reached out her hand to Jing Shu, pulled him up, and stood behind him.
Hmm... After he regains his memories, I need to find a suitable magical artifact for Jing Shu. Jing Ran secretly made a mental note of this and flew in the direction Jing Shu pointed.
As soon as the nascent soul came up, it wrapped its arms around Jingran's waist.
Master's waist is so slender. The Nascent Soul felt that he could wrap his arm around it with one hand.
The nascent soul gently rested its head on Jingran's right shoulder, like a large dog snuggling against Jingran, and comfortably squinted its eyes where Jingran couldn't see.
Unfortunately, before the Nascent Soul could enjoy this for long, Jing Ran caught up with Jing You.
The nascent soul remembered what Jing Shu had told him. Although he was very annoyed, he still jumped off the sword. But when he looked at Jing You, his gaze was slightly disgusted. "Why are you running so slowly?"
"??!" Is that even human language?!
Jingyou's eyes widened. He can't fly! The mountain road is rugged; he's already doing quite well to be this fast!
After saying that, Yuan Ying turned to Jing Ran with a smile and said, "A Ran, you don't need to get down. The terrain here is complicated, and flying on a sword will save you more energy. I'll come down and give Xiao You some special training."
"Hey! No, bro! Getting on the road is the priority! Let's skip the special training!" Upon hearing this, Jingyou ran even faster.
The Nascent Soul cultivator unleashed an explosive talisman towards the spot where Jing You was about to land, saying, "Enough nonsense. Slow down, and you won't need to eat."
Jingyou nimbly dodged it, and the explosive talisman exploded beside him.
"Brother! Are you serious?!"
Despite his complaints, Jingyou didn't stop moving his feet at all.
The Nascent Soul cultivator was also quite displeased, thinking to himself, "Do you think I want this? Wouldn't it be better to spend this time with my master?"
The sect competition is approaching, and he and his master don't know if they'll be able to attend. If not, then helping Jingyou reach the Golden Core stage is the most important thing.
Jingyou must attend this competition. He needs to completely resolve his past and clear his name so that his future cultivation path will be unobstructed and he will not develop inner demons because of it.
Although Jingyou reached the late Foundation Establishment stage in just ten years, which is already very fast, only by reaching the Golden Core stage can one truly have a voice in the entire cultivation world. Just like when Xueniang knew he was in the late Foundation Establishment stage, she didn't take him seriously.
Nascent Soul cursed inwardly. Every time he came out, Jing Shu would always assign him tasks. What, could he not stand to have a moment's rest?!
However, Jing Shu couldn't hear him now; he had gone to cultivate as well. His mid-stage Golden Core cultivation was not enough.
In fact, if Jing Shu wanted, he could simply not control it; his Spirit Gathering Body physique would allow him to directly break through to the Nascent Soul stage.
However, with such a rapid advancement, the Spirit Gathering Body will become uncontrollable once again, which would be counterproductive.
Therefore, Jing Shu could only slow down the rate at which he absorbed spiritual energy, so that his cultivation level would not increase too quickly.
However, to ensure the success of his next task, he must raise his cultivation to the Great Perfection of the Golden Core stage within a controllable framework.
With nowhere else to vent his anger, the Nascent Soul directed it all at Jing You. The speed at which he threw explosive talismans increased, and Jing You was almost injured by the explosions several times. However, the Nascent Soul would then release another talisman to neutralize the explosions, preventing them from actually hitting Jing You.
But Jingyou didn't see that only when you truly feel in danger will you have a better chance of breaking through.
Jingyou couldn't see it, but Jingran, who was always above the two of them, saw it all clearly and slightly curled the corners of her lips.
This character has a sharp tongue but a soft heart. How come she's kind of cute...?
