Wei Nian, who was supposed to leave, secretly peeked out from the side path. Seeing their heartwarming scene, he couldn't help but think of his mother. In the end, he withdrew his gaze. The household servant who was waiting in the small courtyard to take care of him looked at him with some worry. His injured face was already very swollen. His skin was fair, so it was very noticeable.
Wei Nian noticed his gaze. How could he possibly give the other person a good look, as he was already in a low mood? He gruffly said, "I'm fine. Go ask the kitchen for a raw egg."
The young man hurriedly lowered his head and replied, "Yes." Then he quickly left. What he didn't see was that Wei Nian merely raised his hand to touch the injured side of his face, and the wound was visibly recovering. However, his complexion became even paler, and the remaining blood on his lips made him look as if he had been soaked in water.
Wei Nian was one of the few among the Human race with special abilities, which was actually very rare in a group. While the Human Emperor wanted these special ability individuals to intermarry to increase their combat strength, he also feared they would be uncontrollable. So he made them a separate category. Their group was generally considered mysterious beings in people's mouths.
On the other side, Geng Fei was still pondering how to deal with this parrot. Suddenly, the System, suspended in mid-air, jumped out and said: [Host, you can actually hand it over to me, meow.]
Geng Fei was a bit surprised. This System, which usually didn't make a sound even when he called it, had actually spoken up first. Was the sun rising from the west? So she casually asked, "How do you plan to deal with it?"
Little Orange Cat's saliva was about to drip down, its eyes full of stars: [Eat it, of course, meow.]
Geng Fei's mouth twitched. She raised her hand and refused, "Let's forget it."
Upon hearing this, the System looked a little sad, its big, watery eyes looking at the other party and starting to act cute. Geng Fei, who was originally planning to use nearby items to disguise the scene, felt a moment of soft-heartedness by some divine intervention and paused the hand that was about to grab something.
But she still picked up the scroll and began to tear it. It felt a bit familiar. Little Orange Cat, after realizing it couldn't eat the parrot, became a little angry but retracted its disguise. Since it was merely an consciousness entity from another dimension, if it wanted to eat these luck bodies, it would either have to collect them into its own dimension, or the related carriers in their world would act as mediums to eat them directly.
Those who generally had a connection to both worlds were transmigrators or Time-Space Travelers. However, the latter were very rare and had to be pure soul bodies. Time-Space Travelers were darlings of every world. They would never die easily. Upon arriving in a world, they would receive the same treatment as a Child of Destiny. However, there were still some unexpected situations, but those were only a minority.
Geng Fei successfully disguised the room as a crime scene, with this cute, unconscious parrot as the culprit. Before it could recover consciousness, a writing brush was forcibly stuffed under its foot. The walls and floor were covered with strange graffiti. A corner of the schoolbag and bamboo slips were flipped open and piled together, looking extremely messy. When Yue Qiming returned, he saw this scene.
For a moment, he wondered if he had come to the wrong place. Geng Fei had also consumed a large amount of physical strength in this mischief, so she lay on the low table and fell asleep. With a bit of ink on her face, she looked very cute.
That parrot also started to snore, unconsciously smacking its lips as if dreaming of something delicious, its face exuding peace and tranquility. Yue Qiming felt a throbbing in his head. He directly raised his hand and used two silver needles to make the two little ones sleep even more soundly. Then he ordered a Shadow Guard to come down and explain what had happened.
The other party completely recounted the entire sequence of events. This made Yue Qiming narrow his eyes. He hadn't expected it. He thought he was taking in a disciple with high talent, but it turned out to be a hot potato.
Yue Qiming had indeed seen the Panyun Seed before. Back then, because it was too sinister, Dongfang Xuanhua had cleaved it with a single strike after setting up the magic array. And because of the connection with it, he had suffered a serious injury. This thing had also been hunted down several times by people sent by Dongfang Xuanhua. It should have been almost extinct in the Human Realm. Moreover, this little thing had a huge appetite; ordinary cats and dogs wouldn't last long behind it.
Yue Qiming thought carefully and decided to conceal it for the time being. It wasn't primarily because of his friendship with Jun Wutong; he had his own plans. And this little guy had brought him a surprise, but this information could not be revealed to anyone else. He looked at the Shadow Guard kneeling on one knee and took out a pill.
With a beautiful face behind the veil, he expressionlessly uttered a single word: "Eat."
The other party, without any doubt, reached out and took it, placing it in his mouth. However, after a while, blood flowed from all seven orifices, and he fell down with a contorted face. Before dying, he struggled to lift his hand as if trying to grab something, but in the end, it fell to the ground powerlessly.
Yue Qiming took off the other party's iron mask. Even though it was stained with dark blood, he didn't frown. He raised his hand, tore off a lock of his long hair, bit his finger, and smeared it on the hair. He chanted a spell, and a white light shot into the other party's glabella.
The person who had been lying dead on the ground suddenly gasped for air, but he no longer had a heartbeat or breathing. The Shadow Guard, shaken, looked at the culprit and wanted to question him, but his tongue felt as if it were nailed down, and he could only let out a weak sound.
Yue Qiming calmly placed his index finger on his lips and smiled, hushing him. The iron mask was thrown to the ground. The Shadow Guard looked at him in terror, his body trembling involuntarily. But the one who had killed him simply said, "Do not speak of today's events. You may go."
The Shadow Guard's throat suddenly itched, and his mouth responded on its own: "Yes." Then his body instinctively jumped up and hid in the previous spot, watching the room.
Yue Qiming slowly raised his hand and walked, a stream of water appeared, cleaning the bloodstains on the ground. Then he pulled out the silver needles from the parrot.
The parrot slowly woke up. Upon seeing Yue Qiming, it was instantly scared sober. It flapped its wings, trying to stand up, but Yue Qiming pressed its head and smiled, "Little pet, I was away for a while, and this secret room has been redecorated. I thought I had come to the wrong place just now."
The Orangutan Parrot then noticed its surroundings and blurted out in panic: "Ungrateful disciple."
Upon hearing this, Yue Qiming smiled and looked at it: "The pet is naughty. Go down and receive your punishment."
The Orangutan Parrot obediently responded a little wronged: "Yes." Then it flapped its wings and flew out of the small door on the main door. Just as it was about to lift its claw, it slipped and fell. The commotion attracted Yue Qiming's attention.
Seeing the red-feathered parrot clumsily holding a writing brush and trying to scramble at the small door, Yue Qiming felt a sense of amusement. People's joys and sorrows cannot be shared. The little pet was flapping its wings anxiously, trying to get out. In its haste, it did not notice the movement of its own feet. The writing brush was tied to its leg.
