Ma Feifei absolutely did not believe that Yun Qingyang could write a book of "Yellow Quality" or higher. The outcome of this bet was a foregone conclusion, so Ma Feifei was very happy. When people are happy, they have a good appetite. It happened to be noon, so Ma Feifei specially went outside to find a chicken and came back. He sat by the well and began to bleed and pluck the feathers.

"But then again, where exactly is the ninety-ninth Tianshu Fragment?" Ma Feifei, who was idly chatting away, suddenly remembered the matter of the Tianshu Fragment.

So far, the cultivators of Dubian Town have provided him with ninety-eight Tianshu Fragment, but the ninety-ninth Tianshu Fragment has yet to appear. There are also quite a few cultivators who enter the Nine Heavens Mountain to hunt spirit beasts every day. According to the progress, it is unreasonable that there has been no news for so many days.

Moreover, based on the previous Tianshu Fragment, one of the ninety-nine Tianshu Fragment is relatively large, about twice the size of the Tianshu Fragment. This largest Tianshu Fragment is exactly the one that Ma Feifei is missing from the Tianshu Fragment he has collected.

"I remember that the ninety-ninth Tianshu Fragment is always quite difficult to obtain, usually in the hands of the most powerful figures. That was the case with the previous 'Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio.' Could it be that this ninety-ninth Tianshu Fragment is on the most powerful spirit beast in the Nine Heavens Mountain?" Ma Feifei patted the chicken's head and found that it was no longer moving. He drew a basin of well water, heated it up instantly, threw the chicken in, and began to pluck its feathers.

"That doesn't make sense... Isn't the most powerful spirit beast in Nine Heavens Mountain that dragon? I remember that when that dragon entered the 'The Legend of the Righteous Demon,' it left behind a Tianshu Fragment, but that fragment was no different in size from the others."

"Apart from the Jiaolong, the Legendary Beasts below are the most powerful, and their fragments are also of the same size."

"It's not on the Divine Beast, it's not on the Legendary Beasts, so who has the largest fragment?" Ma Feifei pondered as he plucked chicken feathers.

This matter was really distressing for Ma Feifei. It's the same with everything. If you've just started, you might not care and can take your time. But once you're just one step away from finishing something, you'll want to get it done as soon as possible. The longer you drag it out, the more distressed you'll feel, especially for people with obsessive-compulsive tendencies. This is something I've learned from experience.

"Huh!" Suddenly, Ma Feifei paused in his plucked chicken feathers and turned to look at Yun Qingyang. If the dragon wasn't the most powerful being in the Nine Heavens Mountain, then it was very likely Yun Qingyang, because Yun Qingyang, after all, also came from the Nine Heavens Mountain.

Thinking of this, Ma Feifei put down the chicken in her hand and walked directly behind Yun Qingyang.

At this moment, Yun Qingyang was working very seriously on her original work. Whether she was too focused or doing it on purpose, Yun Qingyang ignored Ma Feifei and let Ma Feifei walk behind her.

Ma Feifei glanced curiously at the article written by Yun Qingyang, and her eyelids twitched. The very first sentence was. "Me and my father and mother."

What, are you writing an elementary school student's essay?

Ma Feifei silently covered his mouth with his hand, afraid that he would laugh out loud and suffer a beating.

According to Yun Qingyang's logic, 'Me and My Father and Mother' should be the essay title?... No, it should be the 'book title'.

Hmm... The title is simple, grand, and gets straight to the point. No problem.

However, judging from this, the story Yun Qingyang wrote must be related to her parents. And it must be said, although the title of this book is not very good, Yun Qingyang is still very clever in writing about her parents' story, because the quality of a book is closely related to its content. To put it bluntly, either your book has depth, such as the Analects or the Tao Te Ching, or your worldview in the book is strong enough, such as Journey to the West or Investiture of the Gods of the Gods.

Yun Qingyang's parents were among the Ten Divine Beast of ancient times, so the Book World Yun Qingyang wrote is naturally that ancient era where immortals roamed everywhere and Spirit Saint were as common as dogs. In this way, the background of the book is very powerful. If Yun Qingyang writes the story a little more excitingly, he might actually be able to write a book of above -Yellow Quality.

To be honest, Ma Feifei really hoped that Yun Qingyang could write such a book. After all, he could understand the loneliness Yun Qingyang felt. Ma Feifei himself was a transmigrator. In this world, he couldn't find anyone, let alone relatives, or even anyone with whom he could share common interests. When it came to loneliness, no one understood him better than him.

But then again, Yun Qingyang doesn't seem to have met her parents! How can you write a good story like this? Rely on fantasy?

"What are you doing?" At this moment, Yun Qingyang finally noticed that Ma Feifei had been peeping at him from behind. He quickly covered the words on the paper, turned around and looked at Ma Feifei unhappily, saying, "Can you please stop bothering me? Don't you know that this is easily affecting my writing? If you're so bored, why don't you go read the Tao Te Ching? It just so happens that the Plum Blossom on the plum tree are all gone."

"Uh..." Ma Feifei was a little speechless. Was he that free? Could he be more free than Yun Qingyang?

"Oh dear, what's all this about? I'll only take up a little of your time, just one minute." After saying that, Ma Feifei started looking Yun Qingyang up and down, leaving Yun Qingyang completely bewildered.

Ma Feifei stared at it for a few seconds, but couldn't figure it out. He frowned and subconsciously reached out to touch it.

"Smack~"

Yun Qingyang pushed his hand away, his expression instantly turning cold. "Aren't you asking for a beating?"

"Ahem, no..." Ma Feifei trembled as she withdrew her hand, realizing that this was not a good thing, and explained softly, "I was looking for something, that's all."

"What are you looking for?" Yun Qingyang clearly didn't believe him.

"It's a fragment, you know, the orange kind. I wanted to see if you had one." Saying this, Ma Feifei took out a Tianshu Fragment and said, "It's this one, but it's larger, about twice the size."

Yun Qingyang glanced at the Tianshu Fragment in Ma Feifei's hand, shook his head, and said, "I don't have it."

After saying that, he turned around and continued writing, but Ma Feifei didn't believe him! He kept staring at Yun Qingyang's back.

"Smack!"

Yun Qingyang felt uncomfortable being stared at, so she turned to look at Ma Feifei with a displeased expression.

"You definitely have it!" Ma Feifei insisted. Based on what he had seen before, he deduced that the Tianshu Fragment were embedded in some part of the spirit beast's body. It wasn't necessarily that the beast itself knew about it. Perhaps the Tianshu Fragment was currently embedded in some part of her body, but she herself was unaware of it?

"I really don't have one. Ba Jiu has one. You should go find him." After saying that, Yun Qingyang put away the paper and pen on the table and went to her room. Ma Feifei was too annoying and made it impossible for her to concentrate on her writing.

"Ba Jiu?" Ma Feifei was stunned for a moment after hearing Yun Qingyang's words, then clapped his hands and exclaimed in realization, "That's right! Ba Jiu also came from the Nine Heavens Mountain, and according to the time when the Book Spirit of the Analects of the Analects scattered in the Nine Heavens Mountain, Yun Qingyang came out last year, so it can't be her. But that time period is exactly when Ba Jiu was born, so this Tianshu Fragment should be on him!"

Thinking of this, Ma Feifei stopped bothering Yun Qingyang and ran straight out of the Mysterious Bookstore towards Zhang Yunji's house.
