A Drop of Pangu's Essence Blood

Liu Huo's face was solemn as he looked at Jiang Yao.

"Why did you do that?"

Jiang Yao refused to admit it.

"Senior Brother, what are you talking about?"

Liu Huo pointed to the Cosmos Bag on Jiang Yao's waist. The difference between a Cosmos Bag and a Storage Bag is that a Storage Bag cannot be used without Spiritual Power, while a Cosmos Bag can be used even without Spiritual Power.

A Storage Bag requires a blood-drop contract to be recognized as its master, but a Cosmos Bag can be used without one.

When Jiang Yao released the snake earlier, Liu Huo, who had climbed up the tree, happened to see it.

"Junior Sister, I saw it with my own eyes. You're still trying to deny it? Why did you release the snake? Do you know how dangerous that snake is? It could have bitten someone else."

As Liu Huo spoke, he was about to chase after it, but Jiang Yao hugged his waist, stopping him.

"Sob sob Senior Brother Liu Huo, I didn't do it on purpose. That Spirit Pet was given to me by the Li family. They said it was a blood-drop contract, and I was just trying to form one when it ran off on its own.

Senior Brother, please don't tell Master's Uncle and the others, or Master will beat me.

Senior Brother, we used to play together all the time, but ever since Junior Sister came back, you don't pay attention to me anymore. Senior Brother, don't you like Yao Yao anymore? Yao Yao is so sad!"

Liu Huo hesitated when he saw her crying so sadly.

"You really didn't mean to let the snake go?"

Jiang Yao nodded, her eyes teary as she promised him.

"Senior Brother, I promise, I really didn't do it on purpose. The snake almost bit me just now. I don't know why the Li family gave me such a snake as a Spirit Pet.

What should I do now? The snake ran away. Will the Li family say something when they find out I didn't form a contract with Little Black Snake?

Senior Brother, I want to go back to the Myriad Talisman Sect during this break. I don't want to go to the Li family. My family isn't there. You guys are my family. Don't you want me anymore? Sob sob sob sob, Yao Yao is so sad!"

Before Jiang Wan returned, Liu Huo had indeed been close to Jiang Yao. Seeing Jiang Yao crying so sadly now, the young Liu Huo's heart softened, and he comforted her.

"Don't cry. Master and Mistress are in seclusion now. During this break, both Junior Sister Wanwan and I will be staying at Tianyan Peak. Why don't you stay at Changhe Peak too? If you don't want to go to the Li family, then don't go!"

Jiang Yao immediately nodded when she heard Liu Huo say that.

"Okay, I also think it's better not to go back to the Li family. It's just a little regrettable that I can't go back to the Myriad Talisman Sect.

Senior Brother, why don't we go find Senior Brother Jin Yao and tell him we saw a snake, and ask him to hurry and catch it?"

Liu Huo also thought it was a good idea, but he still felt a little uncomfortable about lying. However, seeing her teary eyes looking at him, his heart softened again.

"Senior Brother, now that you have Junior Sister Wanwan, you don't want Yao Yao anymore, right? Sob sob sob, Yao Yao is so pitiful. My parents don't want me anymore, and you don't want me anymore either?"

Seeing her like this, Liu Huo quickly compromised. He hadn't expected that Jiang Yao was communicating these thoughts telepathically. If she had spoken them aloud, there was no guarantee they wouldn't be heard by the Spiritual Sense of a Foundation Establishment Cultivator.

"Junior Sister, don't cry. Then let's go find Senior Brother Jin Yao quickly. I won't say that you released the snake."

Jiang Yao's objective achieved, she immediately looked at him expectantly and smiled.

When they found Jin Yao, he and Yin Shuo were studying the snake's species and why it had appeared there.

Jiang Yao's heart sank when she saw the snake with its head severed in front of them. It had been cut by a sword.

Jin Yao looked at the two of them approaching together and asked curiously.

"What's wrong?"

"Master's Uncle, we wanted to tell you that we discovered a snake, this one. It's already been killed by you Masters. Did this snake injure anyone?"

Hearing Liu Huo's question, Jin Yao shook his head.

"Although this snake is venomous, it didn't bite anyone. Instead, Junior Sister Jiang Wan chased after it and whipped it several times."

Jin Yao found the scene amusing, thinking of a newborn calf that fears no tiger.

Jiang Yao's mouth dropped open in surprise.

Jin Yao laughed heartily:

"Alright, you can go back now. We will investigate this matter."

As Liu Huo and Jiang Yao returned, they heard Nangong Wanyu speaking.

"I was so scared at the time. Jiang Wan grabbed a whip and started lashing at the snake. The snake was in so much pain that it rolled on the ground and then ran away.

Wanwan was so fierce, she chased after it and whipped it again, and then Senior Brother Dong Chen went over and cut off its head with a sword."

The children gathered around her, their faces full of shocked admiration. "Wow, so amazing! Wow, wow!"

Nangong Wanyu flicked her small whip and lifted her chin.

"It's just a First-Order Demonic Beast. If I see one again next time, I'll be able to kill it too."

Jiang Wan lay on the stone table nearby, watching her ambitious declaration. The other children also excitedly expressed that they too could kill a First-Order Demonic Beast.

Tsk, maybe Senior Uncle Jin Yao should add a practical combat class next time. After all, no matter how young they are, they are still cultivators.

Seeing Liu Huo and Jiang Yao return together, Jiang Wan raised an eyebrow.

Jiang Yao walked over with Liu Huo and smiled at Jiang Wan.

"Junior Sister, you are so amazing. I saw that snake just now too, and I was so scared I cried. I wish I were as capable as you."

Jiang Wan rolled her eyes, not wanting to bother with her.

She extended her small hand, which had little dimples, and gestured to the left.

"Move aside, don't block me.

I won't forgive your mother for what she did to me, and I won't forgive you either. Don't talk to me, I don't want to talk to you."

She suddenly remembered the System saying she had killed the Daughter of Fortune chosen by the Heavenly Dao. What about now?

"System, who is in front of me?"

[Eh, you actually revived the Daughter of Fortune. No wonder the Heavenly Dao is so lenient with you now. Good, you've bought yourself enough time.
The revived Daughter of Fortune is still young, so you can ignore her for now. It will take hundreds of years for her to grow up. By then, the Host will have completely whitewashed themselves and be accepted by the Heavenly Dao.
You crossed the river of time and found her three souls and seven spirits from the Myriad Worlds to reconstruct her physical body. You must have gone through countless hardships and difficulties, right?
The Host's determination to whitewash is moving heaven and earth, witnessed by the sun and moon.
The System has found a suitable reward for you: a drop of Pangu's Essence Blood.
By merging with Pangu's Essence Blood, you will gain one-thousandth of Pangu's Power.]

Jiang Wan was stunned for a moment. Was it really okay for her power to keep stacking up like this?

But if it was on her, then great, she felt safe.

Speaking of which, she still had the Primordial Chaos Body to fuse with, and now another drop of Pangu's Essence Blood. She'd take it slow. Could her small body handle so much without stunting her growth?

With the reward, Jiang Wan was in a good mood, but she still didn't want to see Jiang Yao.

Especially after hearing her manipulative words.

"Junior Sister, I know my mother did wrong, but my mother is my mother, and I am me. Junior Sister, can you please not be angry with me? I want to play with you all."

Jiang Yao thought to herself, this brat is definitely problematic. Why else would she be so hard to appease?

Look how easy Senior Brother Liuhuo is to appease.

Jiang Wan stood up and moved far away from her.

"But I don't want to play with you!"

Jiang Yao's eyes welled up with tears, as if she had been bullied. Jiang Wan looked at her, her hands itching. She wanted to hit the child.
