Chapter 17: The Self-Cultivation of a Salted Fish and a Peculiar Inheritance

“To think this girl isn’t resisting,” Yue Feng murmured, a hint of surprise in his voice as he watched Wang Yu docilely accept the food.

He inhaled the sweet fragrance emanating from the petite girl and gently stroked her soft hair. “If only she could always be this well-behaved.”

Yue Feng, of course, didn’t believe he had already ‘conquered’ Wang Yu. This current situation likely indicated he had met a certain condition, thereby unlocking a hidden storyline.

ヾ ^_^♪ Congratulations, Player Yue Feng! You have unlocked Wang Yu’s hidden storyline: ‘The Self-Cultivation of a Salted Fish.’

‘Eat, eat, eat!’ Wang Yu thought, continuing to revel in the blissful life of being spoon-fed. Finally, after Yue Feng’s ceaseless ministrations, Wang Yu let out a soft “Ah-woo” and leaned languidly against him.

And truly, she had to admit, resting like this was surprisingly comfortable. It was far better than a hard chair, being both soft and warm. Though it felt a little repulsive, it was undeniably pleasant.

Yue Feng watched the adorable loli in his arms and couldn’t resist leaning his face closer. Unfortunately, Wang Yu sensed his intent beforehand, staunchly resisting with her small hands.

“Hey, don’t come any closer, you pervert! That’s disgusting.”

‘This little girl has the memory of a moonfish. It seems it’s time her body truly remembered.’ [A moonfish is a creature from another world said to have only a seven-second memory.]

Wang Yu, sensing the shift in the atmosphere, quickly spoke up. “Didn’t you have something to ask me? Go on, what is it?”

Hmph. Important matters first. There would be plenty of time for training—or rather, nurturing—later. Yue Feng reined in his frivolous demeanor, his expression turning serious.

“What happened to you yesterday? Why did you suddenly run off? And what’s with this little person? Why does it call you its master?”

Wang Yu organized her thoughts before replying. “Before I answer, I have a question. When I started cultivating, did I suddenly disappear?”

“No, you were in my arms the whole time,” Yue Feng answered, a knowing smile playing on his lips as if he’d recalled something amusing.

‘!!! I asked if I was in the room, why did you have to be so specific?!’ Seeing the young woman beside her with a half-smile, Wang Yu felt a blush creep up, as if she were a pilfering kitten caught in the act.

Taking a deep breath, Wang Yu decided to ignore Yue Feng’s deliberate teasing.

“Then I think I understand. My spirit must have entered a peculiar space. There, I met this little person and an audio-visual recording left behind by someone who called himself Haotian Daoist Venerable.”

“Haotian Daoist Venerable!” Shi Yang suddenly appeared, exclaiming, “You saw him, that venerable elder? Is this his inheritance?”

“Hello, Elder Shi,” the young woman greeted politely upon seeing Shi Yang.

“Yue Cai is as sensible as ever,” Shi Yang nodded in approval.

“Is Haotian Daoist Venerable very famous?” Wang Yu asked curiously.

Shi Yang’s face was filled with reverence.

“He was a truly supreme and unparalleled figure from a thousand years ago, invincible throughout the world! Countless people tried to curry favor with him, offering beauties and treasures, but he flatly refused them all.

Haotian Daoist Venerable was devoted to academic research. He frequently invited the world’s top experts for scholarly discussions and development, subsequently promoting their research findings across the entire world.

“He was particularly tenacious in his research within the Yin-Yang domain.

Regardless of one’s cultivation realm or social status, anyone with a significant discovery in that field would be invited to join his team.

Over time, this led to the establishment of the current sacred ground, the Heavenly Palace Institute.

The Heavenly Palace Institute rarely intervenes in worldly affairs; its members are primarily dedicated to academic research in various fields, driving the development of the entire Xuan Continent.”

‘?????’ ‘That pervert is actually so revered by the world?’ ‘—_—|| Should I say that a pervert’s tenacity drove the world forward?’ Watching Shi Yang’s respectful expression, Wang Yu felt it would be rude to shatter the elder’s illusions.

‘Should I tell this elderly man, who knows how old he is, that his idol is a super-invincible pervert?

That the reason he was so passionate about academic research was so he could one day turn his best friend into a girl and then… make a move? Well, at least his spirit is worthy of respect.’

Wang Yu felt a wave of dizziness just thinking about it, so she simply echoed, “Haha, yes, that’s right, it was him. But he didn’t give me any inheritance; he just told me some stories from the past.”

“As for this little person,” Wang Yu glanced at the small, plump figure with a full belly, “I did indeed encounter it in that mental space, but why it appeared here is unclear.”

Hearing Wang Yu’s words, the little person quickly interjected, “Master, my name is Long Aotian. My previous master told me that if anyone could enter the Golden Lotus Space, they would be my new master.”

“Long Aotian?” Wang Yu twitched her lips.

“Yes, my previous master said that this name was legendary in his hometown, so he gave it to me,” the little person declared proudly.

“Ah, yes, quite legendary indeed,” Wang Yu said, a hint of exasperation in her voice. “Then why didn’t he take you with him? Was it because you were too useless?”

“That’s not it at all! I’m very powerful!” (ง •̀_•́)ง The little person—no, Long Aotian—retorted. “I can store memories, deduce cultivation techniques, crack array formulas, and create maps for hidden dungeons! I’m extremely useful!”

“Oh, you’re that capable?” Wang Yu’s spirits lifted. ‘Isn’t this just a miniature computer?’

“Yes, indeed! As long as you can provide me with enough spiritual energy, Master.”

“So, charging you, basically. No problem. But if you’re so useful, why did he leave you for me?” Wang Yu was puzzled. ‘Did that senior suddenly have a change of heart?’

“I’m not entirely sure either. I wanted to go with my master, but he said he wouldn’t be returning for a long time after going home, and that there were no herbs in his world for making fast-acting heart-saving pills, so he left me behind.”

The little person looked confused. “My master started eating immediately after creating me, even though he wasn’t sick. And what do fast-acting heart-saving pills have to do with me?”

Yue Feng: “……..”

Wang Yu: “……..”

‘I knew that pervert’s conscience had been devoured by dogs long ago.’

Wang Yu sighed. “Fine, you can stay. Just remember to send me the prescription for those fast-acting heart-saving pills; I have a feeling I’ll need them. Also, can you change your appearance?”

“Yes, Master!” Long Aotian puffed out its chest. “What do you want me to look like, Master? I actually think I don’t need to change. My master said his appearance was the most handsome in his world.”

‘Could your former master die if he didn’t narcissistically praise himself for a single day?’ Wang Yu thought, then said sharply, “Your current appearance is disgusting to me. Can you read my thoughts? Transform into the image in my mind.”

“As long as Master permits it, I can!” Long Aotian said, its face full of grievance, then transformed into a doll-like animal.

It had two small wings on its back, a slender tail, a round head with two small ears, and a pair of large eyes. Its entire body was brownish-yellow, save for its white belly.

“And from now on, you’ll be called Xiaoke,” Wang Yu said, examining it with satisfaction.
