Chapter 192: Starting to Trap Children, It’s All A Show Zhao Wan’er squatted down gloomily and pinched her little face. “Linglong, how many times have I said that you can’t say these words for no reason in the future? It’s inauspicious, understand?” “Oh…” Little Linglong pondered for a moment before suddenly taking out a blue crystal and handing it to Ye Qiu. She said happily, “Master, this is for you.” “Hmm?” Ye Qiu was stunned for a moment. He looked at her in amusement and asked, “You spent a lot of effort to obtain this. Why did you give it to me?” Ye Qiu was quite tempted as he looked at the blue crystal in front of him. However, how could a master snatch his disciple’s treasure? Logically speaking, it was not appropriate. Little Linglong sucked on her little finger and thought seriously for a moment before saying, “Because I want to embed this thing on the bed so that I can sleep well every day in the future.” “Pfft…” As soon as these words were spoken, Qi Wuhui, who was leisurely drinking water, couldn’t help but vomit. Fortunately, Ye Qiu dodged quickly. Otherwise, he would have been ambushed. “Senior Brother, what are you doing?” Ye Qiu said gloomily. He had almost fallen for it. “Hehe, I’m sorry. I couldn’t hold it in. Junior Brother, don’t take offense.” Qi Wuhui said awkwardly. He was extremely speechless by Linglong. This energy crystal was a supreme treasure that many people dreamed of. If he could absorb it, his cultivation would advance by leaps and bounds, not inferior to the power of an immortal pill at all. She actually only wanted it to be embedded in the bed so that she could sleep more comfortably in the future? Wasn’t this a bit of a waste? If it really doesn’t work, you can tie Martial Uncle to the side. Martial Uncle will tell you bedtime stories every day. Can you give this crystal to Martial Uncle? “Haha, you really have the temperament of a child. How good would it be if you grew up a little more…” Meng Tianzheng also smiled and did not interrupt. He continued to watch from the side. Ye Qiu squatted down and stroked her little head, tidying her messy hair. “Linglong, this crystal is a rare treasure in this world. It contains endless power and is extremely helpful to cultivation. If you can absorb the power inside, your cultivation will increase greatly. How can you embed it on the bed?” Ye Qiu patiently explained. After hearing his explanation, Little Linglong seemed to understand something. “Oh! So this little crystal is so powerful.” Thinking about it, Little Linglong’s big eyes rolled around. Suddenly, she stretched out her hand and said, “Master, then this crystal should be given to you.” “Why?” Ye Qiu asked with a smile. He didn’t accept it. Instead, he wanted to hear why she was so persistent in giving him the crystal. Little Linglong said seriously, “Master, didn’t you say that your cultivation would greatly increase after absorbing this little thing? If Master absorbs it, won’t you be able to protect us better in the future?” As soon as these words were spoken, everyone’s hearts trembled. She continued, “Master has always given us many things to increase our strength and teach us powerful punching moves. Now that this small crystal is helpful to Master, I naturally have to give it to you. “Moreover, Senior Sister said that if she meets someone she likes in the future, she must carefully prepare a small gift for him. This is a token of her sincerity. Linglong likes Master the most. This small crystal is my small gift.” Little Linglong smiled sweetly, unable to hide the happiness in her eyes. As soon as these words were spoken, Lin Qingzhu’s face turned red and she complained in her heart.?“This wretched girl, what nonsense are you spouting? Is that what I meant when I said ‘like’?” Lin Qingzhu was depressed. Little Linglong might not understand what she meant by like. She was talking about how when she grew up and met the man she liked, she could prepare some small gifts to express her love. However, how could Little Linglong understand these things? She was clearly still young. She only treated her reliance on Ye Qiu and her attachment to her master as love. Her words almost made Lin Qingzhu die. If she had known earlier, she would not have taught her these in advance. “Haha…” Hearing this, Ye Qiu only smiled. He understood what Linglong meant. His heart warmed. He had not raised this girl for nothing. She still had her master in her heart and remembered his kindness. As expected of my little darling. At least she wasn’t that much of an ingrate. However, even so, how could I accept a gift from my disciple? 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖 After thinking seriously for a while, Ye Qiu slowly said, “Alright… This is the first time Linglong has given me a gift. I can feel your sincerity.” Ye Qiu smiled and took the small crystal. He turned his hand and said, “Now, I’ll give you this crystal. This is a small gift I prepared for Linglong. I also like Linglong very much.” Ye Qiu gently stroked her head and stuffed the small crystal into her hands. Little Linglong was stunned and couldn’t think straight.?What does that mean? Did Master not like my gift? You gave it back to me? “No, that’s not it…” Little Linglong wanted to refute something, but she didn’t know what to say. She was stupid. Everyone’s hearts tightened when they saw her jumping up and down anxiously. They had all seen Little Linglong flare up when she lost control of her emotions, so they were all traumatized. They kept shouting in their hearts, “Just accept it. Don’t provoke her.” “Master doesn’t like Linglong, so you don’t want my gift, right…” Little Linglong was about to cry. She wanted to give her master a gift, but this was the only one she could give. However, Ye Qiu accepted it on the surface and returned it to her. Ye Qiu smiled faintly and said, “Silly girl, what nonsense are you spouting? The three of you are my treasures. Every one of you is very important. How can I not like you? I can’t do much. I only hope that I can make you happy and carefree as you grow up. I want to be your shelter and shelter you from the wind and rain. This is what I’m most gratified about.” Lin Qingzhu and Zhao Wan’er’s eyes stung when they heard Ye Qiu’s words. They had always known very well that they would remember their master’s kindness to them. Seeing this, Ye Qiu was delighted.?Hehe, the trap had begun again. This was the rhythm. After a while, Ye Qiu continued, “I can’t be by your side forever to protect you. I only hope that before I leave, I can see you grow together and be able to take charge of things. Then I will be very satisfied.” Such touching words made everyone fall silent. When the disciples of the various peaks heard that someone else’s master loved their disciples so much and cared so much about their disciples, they could not help but look at their master. The elders of the various peaks felt guilty under the burning gazes.?Damn it, don’t look at me. Why am I being implicated? All the elders of the Holy Lands were depressed. They originally only wanted to stay and spar with the elders of the other Holy Lands about Dao techniques. In the end, they were no longer human with this comparison. They were both other people’s masters, but why was the difference between them so great? “Master, don’t say anymore. We will remember your kindness to us.” Lin Qingzhu’s eyes were filled with tears as she said with a trembling voice. She lowered her head and stroked Little Linglong’s head. She comforted her, “Linglong, be good and listen to Master.” “Fine.” At this point, Little Linglong stopped fooling around. Although she didn’t understand many things, she understood one thing. Other than her parents and that old beggar, the person who treated her the best in the world was her master. Ye Qiu smiled in his heart when he saw that she had finally calmed down.?“Hehe, it’s all acting. Learn well and watch well.”?This performance made his three disciples cry from being touched. Even Ye Qiu himself believed it. It wouldn’t make sense if he didn’t get a Best Actor award with his acting skills, right? [Ding! You have given your disciple an energy blue crystal, triggering a critical hit return. Do you want to activate it?] Ye Qiu was delighted when he heard this system notification. I can play it like this too? I gave something that my precious disciple gave me to her, and it actually triggered a return? This system is too humane. I’ll give you a good review. [Do you want to activate it?] “Yes, activate…” Ye Qiu looked calm on the surface, but he was overjoyed in his heart. [Ding… congratulations, you have triggered a thousand-fold critical strike and obtained an energy purple crystal.] “Hiss… beautiful. It increased by a thousand times in one go. Looks like I have to break through to the King-Ranked realm.” Hearing this, Ye Qiu was delighted and revealed a faint smile. Suddenly, Little Linglong, who had been silent for a long time, thought of something and said, “Master, I’ve never read books, but I understand everything you say. However, didn’t you say that you were just missing an opportunity to break through now? This crystal can help you break through. If you don’t want it, what do you want?” As soon as these words were spoken, everyone was stunned. “What? Junior Brother is going to break through?” The people from the Heaven Mending Sect were instantly stunned. Little Linglong’s words were like a missile suddenly thrown into a calm lake. It exploded into a thousand layers of water. “No way? Perfected Ye doesn’t look old. He’s actually about to break through to the King-Ranked realm at his age?” For a moment, the entire Mount Yun Ding was in an uproar. If Ye Qiu could really break through to the King-Ranked realm, he could definitely be considered the number one person in the Eastern Wasteland. It was even higher than the height that Daoist Xuantian had reached back then. “Unbelievable, simply unbelievable.” “Looks like our Heaven Mending Sect is going to produce a Martial Monarch Realm expert.” Meng Tianzheng was also extremely excited. Unfortunately, Ye Qiu had his principles. He didn’t want the blue crystal that Little Linglong gave him. This was really a pity. “Yes, it makes sense. How can someone like Junior Brother, who has principles and never hides anything from his disciple, ask for his disciple’s gift?” Qi Wuhui also shook his head and sighed, saying that it was a pity. Unexpectedly, in the next second, Ye Qiu suddenly took out a purple crystal. “Linglong, don’t worry. I can just use a mere purple crystal…” Everyone present: “…”
