Before everyone could leave, Ning Tian hurriedly pulled Zhu Yuanbao away, partly to avoid the annoying Princess Yue Ling, and partly because the effect of the copying aura card had already expired.
Now was the time to slip away .
...
...
Back at the Fengyu Inn.
Ning Tian went straight to his room, cautiously looking out the window. Relieved to find no suspicious people, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"This haul was pretty good."
Although he had spent several hundred million spirit coins, his wife was a rich woman; spending money was no big deal.
"I'm still missing one ingredient to enhance my Celestial Body: the Thunder Heart Fruit..."
Ning Tian frowned.
He felt a headache coming on. He had the Nine Phoenix Ice Grass, but he had no clue where to find the Thunder Heart Fruit.
"Sigh..."
"I'll just have to look for it slowly."
He sighed.
Then, he took out a sheepskin scroll, on which wind and thunder faintly flickered.
It was the mid-level Earth Rank martial art, the Wind and Thunder Divine Palm
! He sat cross-legged on the bed, took a deep breath, and simultaneously circulated the Celestial God Record and the Three Lives Technique to begin cultivating the Wind and Thunder Divine Palm!
[Detecting the host's absorption of the Wind and Thunder Divine Palm cultivation method!]
[Comprehending at ten times the speed!] Instantly
, wind and thunder raged around Ning Tian, accompanied by shouts.
... Wind and Rain Inn. Two graceful figures appeared in front of the inn. Instantly, many guests widened their eyes. "What beautiful women!" "These two women are amazing!" Although they wore veils, the thin veils revealed a hazy beauty. The waiter immediately greeted them with a smile, "Esteemed guests, would you like to stay or dine? Just a heads-up, if you have horses, please be careful." "Horses?" Xi Wangmu raised an eyebrow, saying calmly, "We're not here for food or lodging; we're looking for someone." "Looking for someone?" The waiter was taken aback, looking at the two women with confusion. "Esteemed guests, who are you looking for?" Xi Wangmu thought for a moment, then slowly said, "An extremely ugly person." "That guest?" The waiter was startled, then pointed to a room on the second floor. Immediately, the two women headed upstairs, leaving the diners bewildered. Second floor. Inside the room. The wind and thunder on Ning Tian's body slowly dissipated. In his mind, the system's voice sounded. [Mid-level Earth Rank Martial Art, Wind and Thunder Divine Palm, successfully comprehended!] "Phew..." Ning Tian breathed a long sigh of relief. He had finally successfully comprehended the Wind and Thunder Divine Palm. Knock knock. At this moment. A knock sounded at the door. Ning Tian instantly became alert. Zhu Yuanbao had said he was going to take a nap. Given his pig-like sleeping habits, it was impossible for him to be only now waking up. "What are you standing there for? Open the door." A woman's impatient voice rang out from outside. Hearing the somewhat familiar voice, Ning Tian was startled. The Queen Mother of the West? Immediately, he got up, went over, and opened the door. Sure enough , outside the door stood the Queen Mother of the West and the Holy Maiden of Yaochi. The Queen Mother of the West didn't stand on ceremony, directly leading the Holy Maiden of Yaochi in. "Why are you here?" Ning Tian asked, closing the door behind him . "Take off your mask before you talk to us," the Queen Mother of the West rolled her eyes. "Give me back my ancestor's handsome face." The Holy Maiden of Yaochi chimed in, "Exactly, exactly! Those who love the ancestor strongly condemn this!" "Uh..." Ning Tian rubbed his nose, then removed the Ice Silk Mask. With the Queen Mother of the West here, there was no need to worry about revealing his identity. The Ice Silk Mask was removed. That handsome face, which had nowhere to be displayed, reappeared. "Hmm~ Not bad, this face is more pleasing to the eye," the Queen Mother of the West patted Ning Tian's shoulder and laughed. " Ancestor..." the Holy Maiden of Yaochi greeted Ning Tian, blushing. "Hmm." Ning Tian nodded, then looked at the Queen Mother of the West, "Queen Mother of the West, what are you doing here?" "Hehe, what do you think, Ancestor?" The Queen Mother of the West looked at Ning Tian teasingly, her eyes like a wolf eyeing a lamb.
"Ancestor, do you think that if I force myself on you and do something shameful here, that woman Luo Wuqing shouldn't be able to sense it, right?"
"..."
Ning Tian was stunned, his heart filled with astonishment.
Holy crap!
This Queen Mother of the West actually wants to force herself on me!?
Cough cough!
No one would expect something like this, right?
"Hehe."
The Queen Mother of the West gave Ning Tian a charmingly flirtatious look. "Ancestor, I'm just teasing you~"
Ning Tian gritted his teeth, looking at the Queen Mother of the West. "Queen Mother of the West, you just wait. When I'm stronger than you, I'll definitely spank your butt until it's bruised and battered!"
"Ancestor."
"I'll let you spank me now, do you dare?"
"I don't dare?"
Ning Tian's lips curled into a cold smile.
*Slap! Slap!
Slap!*
The crisp sound rang out.
Beside her, the Holy Maiden of Yaochi was stunned.
The Queen Mother of the West was also stunned, a blush instantly rising behind her ears.
She hadn't expected that Ning Tian would actually dare!
Ning Tian spanked her three times, then let go.
What if this woman gets angry and tries to kill him?
But he still has to fight, and it'll be quite satisfying!
Besides, the Queen Mother of the West has taken the initiative!
How can he back down?
A man can't back down!
[You have shocked the Queen Mother of the West.]
[You have shocked the Holy Maiden of Yaochi.]
[Reward: Spiritual Qi Cultivation +300.]
The Queen Mother of the West's pretty face flushed slightly. She wasn't angry as Ning Tian had imagined; instead, a hint of allure appeared on her face.
"Ancestor, you hit her, so you have to take responsibility."
"..."
"I didn't do anything to you, so why don't you hit me too?" Ning Tian was speechless.
So awkward.
The Holy Maiden of Yaochi gritted her teeth, at a loss.
"Ahem."
Ning Tian coughed lightly. "Ahem, well, let's get down to business."
"Ancestor, we've come to you, we only need one thing."
The Queen Mother of the West became serious.
"What thing?"
Ning Tian asked.
"The root of the Nine Phoenix Ice Grass." The Queen Mother of the West said calmly.
