Eating Soft Rice! Putting a Dou Emperor to Work

"I trust Her Majesty the Queen's judgment. She wouldn't do anything without benefit." Yun Yun could tell that Queen Medusa was simply teasing her.

Killing her in the Chu Yun Empire brought no benefits and might draw the attention of the empire's experts. There was also the risk of the Observation Copy being exposed.

But helping her could bring quite a few benefits, such as having Pill King Gu He refine medicine.

The Snake-People Tribe had always lacked alchemists to cooperate with.

"This Queen only does things according to her mood." Queen Medusa spoke arrogantly. "Call me Your Majesty, and perhaps this Queen will be in a very good mood."

Why did this feel like I was being flirted with?

"Your... Majesty?" Yun Yun's pink lips trembled slightly as she called out.

She felt that if she was asking someone for help, she needed to show the proper attitude.

Queen Medusa had cooperated with her because of the Notebook Copy and accompanied her on a risky trip to the Chu Yun Empire to kill the Soul Envoy.

If calling her Your Majesty could make her happy, then there was no harm in it.

Yet after saying it, she inexplicably felt ashamed.

"You really said it?" Queen Medusa let out a laugh that made Yun Yun blush. "Not bad, Sect Master."

Yun Yun:!!!

"Oh, right." As though remembering something, Medusa abruptly changed the subject. "Let this Queen see your Observation Copy. I'm curious whether what you and I see is the same."

After thinking for a moment, Yun Yun understood Medusa's meaning and did not hesitate to manifest her own Observation Copy.

However, she did not hand it over directly. Instead, she looked at Medusa, her meaning obvious.

If you want to see mine, then I want to see yours too. We exchange them.

This time, Medusa did not domineeringly refuse. She also manifested her Observation Copy.

But in the next instant, a strange scene appeared.

Both Notebook Copies emitted streams of light that connected in midair, then immediately returned to their respective copies.

Everything happened in an instant. By the time Medusa and Yun Yun reacted, they could both clearly sense a special mark appearing within their souls.

At the same time, understanding rose in their hearts. This mark allowed them to communicate across any distance within the Dou Qi Continent.

If Xiao Ting transcended the Dou Qi Continent, then the distance they could span would also increase.

"Hiss!"

Both women were shaken to the core.

As far as they knew, transmitting messages directly without relying on strange artifacts could only be done through soul communication.

For soul communication, either one's soul realm had to reach the Spirit Realm and one had to know the other party's soul information, or one had to possess a special secret soul communication technique.

Yet even soul communication had distance limitations. The stronger one's soul realm, the greater the distance one could span.

Ignoring distance throughout the Dou Qi Continent was simply heaven-defying.

"Doesn't that mean that even if you were at the far south of the continent and I were at its far north, we could still communicate freely?" Yun Yun's voice trembled. "This method..."

"Heaven-defying." Queen Medusa was equally unsettled.

Do not underestimate this method.

Suppose she led people to explore a place and became trapped. With this method, she could call for help.

If an expert set up a spatial blockade, or even trapped her in a higher-level Spatial Barrier, she could still seek aid in time.

And this was a method similar to telepathy or soul transmission.

They could discuss strategies and plot schemes with extremely strong secrecy.

"Once we enter the Chu Yun Empire, we can test it out." Queen Medusa narrowed her long, slender eyes. "We can investigate separately. It won't just make traps and ambushes far more undetectable."

Yun Yun's eyes lit up, and anticipation appeared on her face.

For now, no third person knew of the encounter the two women had experienced.

Naturally, Xiao Ting, who had brought about all these changes, knew nothing either. Having just finished taking stock of his gains, he raised his hand and handed two scrolls to Xun'er.

"What are these?" Xun'er accepted the scrolls eagerly.

Brother Xiao Ting had finally remembered to give Xun'er a gift.

Xiao Yi Xian had the Seven-Colored Poison Scripture. Though she had earned it, Gu Xun'er wanted something too.

"They're scrolls for making Flight Dou Techniques." Xiao Ting answered, his eyes carrying a hint of ingratiation. "I'll have to trouble Xun'er to find someone to complete the final step."

Xun'er:?

"Making?" Xun'er spread open the scrolls.

She discovered that all the materials had already been fully prepared. Special formation patterns were inscribed on them, emitting a peculiar fluctuation.

As long as a magical beast's wings and beast soul were stripped out and implanted into the formation patterns, they could successfully be turned into Flight Dou Techniques.

"These two scrolls use a Fifth Rank and Sixth Rank combination. It's best to implant the wings and beast souls of Fifth Rank magical beasts. The cultivation success rate will be much higher, making them High Xuan Tier Flight Dou Techniques."

"If the maker is skilled enough, Sixth Rank magical beast wings and beast souls can also be implanted. If the Sixth Rank magical beast used is strong enough, it will become a Low Earth Tier Flight Dou Technique."

"Xun'er, please ask one of your seniors to help me with this."

"If you need one yourself, make one too."

"It's best if they're from the same type of magical beast. Let's make a matching couple's set."

Upon hearing the earlier words, Xun'er was so annoyed that she laughed.

So the benefit he was giving her still required using someone around her.

But that last sentence erased all her anger. Her tone was full of helplessness mixed with affection. "A matching couple's set... Xun'er will do her best, Brother Xiao Ting!"

She possessed a flight secret technique like Heavenly Flame Wings, and she could also use the Golden Emperor Burning Heaven Flame's ability to burn even Dou Qi and the energy of heaven and earth to temporarily increase her strength.

A Low Earth Tier Flight Dou Technique made from a Sixth Rank magical beast was beneath her.

If it were a Flight Dou Technique made from the corpse of a Dou Zun-level magical beast, it would have some value for refinement.

But at her current strength, it was still less practical than Heavenly Flame Wings.

It would be the same even after she broke through to Dou Zun!

Still, making one for Brother Xiao Ting would not be a problem.

"Awoo~"

Traveling by air was indeed fast. Xiao Lan soon arrived above Wutan City and, under Xiao Yi Xian's direction, landed on the Xiao Clan's training ground.

Amid countless astonished and envious gazes, Xiao Ting leaped down and went to see Xiao Zhan first, explaining the situation.

He gave him several basic Xuan Tier low-grade and mid-grade cultivation methods and Dou Techniques.

As for heavenly treasures, especially rare flowers and herbs, giving them to Yao Lao was certainly more worthwhile.

"Good, good, good! Wonderful!" Xiao Zhan was so excited that he could not say anything else.

Xiao Ting's gains this time could greatly increase the Xiao Clan's combat strength.

Especially that Mad Lion Roar, which could be used with all weapons as well as fists and kicks. It was practically tailor-made for him.

"Uncle, I'll go find Brother Yan first." After speaking with Xiao Zhan for a few moments, Xiao Ting went to the back mountain to find Xiao Yan.

"Cousin, I got some good things. They're yours." Xiao Ting handed a fire-element High Xuan Tier Dou Technique and the Purple Cloud Wings to Xiao Yan.

Xiao Yan:?

"Little Ting, did you rob a Dou Emperor?" Xiao Yan's voice trembled.

These were a High Xuan Tier Dou Technique and a High Xuan Tier Flight Dou Technique worth no less than a Low Earth Tier Dou Technique!

"More or less." Xiao Ting roughly explained the matter of exploring the cave dwelling.

"Awesome!" Xiao Yan spat out two words. "Did you step in dog shit or something?"

"I stepped on you." Xiao Ting rolled his eyes.

"Get lost, get lost, get lost." Xiao Yan waved his hand irritably. "You're a Dou Shi, while I'm only at the eighth stage of Dou Qi. I can't learn either of these Dou Techniques yet. You did this on purpose, didn't you?"

"Then work hard and get stronger faster. You're weak, and you still think you have a reason?" Xiao Ting did not hesitate to scorn him.

"You disrespectful brat, want to fight?" Xiao Yan flexed his muscles.

"Fight?" Xiao Ting smiled. "Come on, come on. I won't use Dou Qi Armor against you. Just take one move of my Heaven Drawing Dragon Transformation Seal."

The Flame Emperor had to fight his way from childhood to adulthood.

Xiao Yan: "..."

At that moment, his desire for strength became more intense than ever before.

After trading a few barbs, Xiao Ting looked toward Yao Lao. "Senior, have you heard of the Woeful Poison Body?"

Yao Lao, who had originally been smiling with a touch of surprise, froze. Then his expression turned shocked. "The Woeful Poison Body?!"
