Chapter 60 True Love Isn't Human

When Lou Yuqing and the other two found Yuan Shenxing, he was chatting with Ruan Qingzhu in the farmland.

They met because of the spirit beast dealers, and later the little monkey and the little gray wolf grew closer and closer, and the two keeper gradually became acquainted.

The reason why the two spirit beasts became close is quite amusing.

Both the psychic ape and the silver moon wolf are skilled in illusion. One day, the two little ones met by chance and sparks flew. In the end, neither could defeat the other, so they agreed to fight again another day.

Then they became friends despite their initial conflict, and their relationship grew better day by day.

Yuan Shenxing woke up from his cultivation several times to find that his natal spirit beast was not in the cave. When he asked it when it returned, it said that it had gone to Qishan to play with the little monkey.

Yuan Shenxing wasn't flustered at not seeing the Silver Moon Wolf this time. He found the place with practiced ease and answered a few questions about cultivation for Ruan Qingzhu. Still wanting more, he asked, "Junior Sister Ruan, do you have any other questions?"

The sense of accomplishment from those few words that suddenly enlightened him was truly addictive. Back when he was a rogue cultivator, he encountered setbacks everywhere, and the memory still brings tears to his eyes.

Ruan Qingzhu said gratefully, "Thank you, Senior Brother Yuan, but I don't have any more for now."

Yuan Shenxing smiled and said, "Okay, just come to me if you encounter any problems later. I encountered all sorts of problems before I broke through to the Foundation Establishment stage, so I have a lot of experience. You don't have to worry about bothering me."

Upon hearing this, Ruan Qingzhu felt a warm current surge through her body.

She didn't have many friends in the sect, so being cared for like this felt really good. At the same time, Yuan Shenxing's image in her mind grew taller. It was rare to find a fellow disciple who was so open and generous.

Ruan Qingzhu regretted her hasty judgment that Yuan Shenxing was a scourge. He was not a bad person at all; he was clearly a very kind person!

Yuan Shenxing felt that Ruan's gaze was even more friendly, and scratched the back of his head uncomfortably: "Junior Sister Ruan, it's getting late, I should go pick up Zhizhi."

Ruan Qingzhu exclaimed "Ah!" and asked in confusion, "Did Zhizhi come today? I don't think I saw it."

Yuan Shenxing was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously said, "When it's not in its cave, it usually comes to play with Xiaoling... By the way, where is Xiaoling?"

Once Xiaoling's location is determined, Zhizhi's location is also determined.

Ruan Qingzhu said with a troubled expression, "Xiao Ling has been taken away by its father, who said he wanted to help it strengthen the bond between father and son. It won't be back until the evening."

Yuan Shenxing understood what she meant: "So, Zhizhi went somewhere else to play?"

"Logically speaking, that's how it should be. Think about where it would go; it couldn't possibly get lost within the sect." Ruan Qingzhu noticed that he seemed a bit down and wanted to offer him some words of comfort.

Yuan Shenxing, however, was not as worried as she had expected. She smiled at her and said, "It's alright. Zhizhi and I have a contract. I'll sense it and find out where it is."

Just then, Lou Yuqing and the other two appeared.

Steward Xie picked up the ink vine in his hand and said to Yuan Shenxing, "Young man, no need to look anymore. Take a look and see if this is your natal spirit beast?"

Yuan Shenxing turned his head and saw that Zhizhi was being held in his hand. A fierce glint flashed in his eyes. Then he realized that this was the Wendao Sect, not the sect he used to know.

He closed his eyes, suppressed the negative emotions surging in his heart, and bowed, saying, "Disciple Yuan Shenxing greets this senior. It is indeed my natal spirit beast. I don't know where Zhizhi has offended you. I hope you will forgive me."

Steward Xie snorted coldly and tossed the ink vine into his arms: "You just need to admit that you are its owner. The wronged should have their source and the debtor should be held accountable. It stole half a vat of my spirit wine. Do you know how much effort I put into brewing that!"

Yuan Shenxing hugged the little wolf and looked at Steward Xie in a daze. He could understand each word the other said, but he couldn't understand the rest when they were put together.

"Zhizhi, did you steal someone else's wine?" Yuan Shenxing lowered his head and looked at his natal spirit beast in disbelief. It had never had this bad habit before.

When Ruan Qingzhu saw this scene, her heart tightened. Could the little wolf have been led astray by the little monkey? She was also a little annoyed. They were learning bad things instead of good ones. Both of them deserved a good beating.

Mo Teng twisted his body, contorting himself into an "S" shape, as if trying to coax Yuan Shenxing and get away with it.

Yuan Shenxing didn't give it that chance. He directly cast a spell into its body, and the next moment, a ball of green light shone, and the Silver Moon Wolf appeared in front of everyone, its crescent moon mark on its forehead shining brightly.

The little wolf let out a pitiful howl at Yuan Shenxing.

It doesn't.

Yuan Shenxing looked at it seriously: "Zhizhi, you've learned to lie now. Everyone caught you red-handed. Let me tell you, what you did was wrong. If you want to drink spirit wine, just tell me. It's not like I'm unwilling to spend money on you. What can I say?"

When the little wolf realized its master had misunderstood it, it howled anxiously. It really hadn't stolen the spirit wine; someone else had. When it arrived, the wine jar was already empty.

Lou Yuqing couldn't understand animal language, but she could tell that the little wolf was protesting.

The next moment, she heard Yuan Shenxing's surprised voice: "What? You're saying that it wasn't you who stole the spirit wine, but the little monkey?"

According to Yuan Shenxing's retelling, everyone learned what had happened: A few days ago, the little monkey went to the dining hall to steal some spirit wine. When the little gray wolf went to play with it, it noticed a pleasant smell and asked it where the spirit wine was. When it ran to the dining hall and opened the wine vat, it found that the spirit wine was empty. Just then, Steward Xie came to collect the spirit wine, and the little monkey was caught red-handed before it could run away.

Steward Xie was speechless: "..." It turned out there were two petty thieves, one who succeeded in committing the crime and the other who failed.

Ruan Qingzhu and Yuan Shenxing, as the caretakers of the spirit beasts, stepped forward to apologize to Steward Xie.

Watching them talk, Lou Yuqing had an idea. She opened the gossip panel and curiously clicked on Yuan Shenxing's gossip.

[Source: Yuan Shenxing (Price changed by 2000 points)]

Hmm, the price doesn't seem low.

Lou Yuqing glanced at Yuan Shenxing, surprised that this man, who had died young, had quite a few scandals to his name.

Fortunately, she still had over 5,000 points in her "gossip value," so she paid the corresponding points and started reading about Yuan Shenxing's gossip. Taking advantage of the fact that no one knew what she was thinking, she shouted out the sensationalist phrase commonly used by marketing accounts.

[Shocking! Yuan Shenxing actually became a male concubine for love!]

Everyone: "..."

Manager Xie's indignant expression froze, and he automatically fell silent.

Ruan Qingzhu's body stiffened, and she looked at the person in question with an indescribable expression.

Ling Yunxiao's reverie was pulled back, and he thought to himself, "What a huge sacrifice. Is this love?"

For a moment, you could hear a pin drop.

Yuan Shenxing's face flushed red, and he wanted to shout at the top of his lungs: I'm innocent! Don't you dare believe me!

But the moment he opened his mouth, all the words got stuck in his throat, leaving him unable to speak and only able to cough wildly.

"Cough cough cough..."

Is it just an illusion?

Why is there a force suppressing him?

Yuan Shenxing looked at Lou Yuqing with surprise and doubt. He clearly saw that she did not speak when her voice came out, so this was her inner thoughts.

Ruan Qingzhu and Steward Xie received the same treatment.

They exchanged glances, not daring to make any rash moves, until they received a telepathic message from Ling Yunxiao, at which point they understood the current situation.

In the sky, Lingzhu Zhenren and Shi Hua teased Yuan Shenxing about his deeds, and then wanted to chat with this junior for a while, to comfort him since his spirit beast and their own child were playing well together.

After all, it must be quite embarrassing to have something like that exposed directly.

Unexpectedly, the moment she opened her mouth, an undeniable force descended, as if an invisible hand had gripped her throat, causing a sudden cold sweat to break out on her back.

"Lingzhu, don't even think about speaking. We can't resist that power." Shi Hua reminded her a step too late, and seeing that she suddenly started to suffocate, she quickly stopped her.

"Cough cough."

Master Lingzhu did as instructed, and noticing the power recede, he touched his uncomfortable throat: "Shi Hua, what's wrong with that girl?"

Shi Hua carefully chose her words: "You can understand this as Yuqing's supernatural power. Sometimes she will speak out about the past and the future in the form of her inner thoughts. The little monkey was saved thanks to her."

Master Lingzhu, looking somewhat bewildered, understood her meaning and said, "I understand, this girl is our family's benefactor."

Meanwhile, in complete silence, Lou Yuqing unknowingly explained the melon.

Yuan Shenxing's former employer was the Myriad Beasts Sect, a sect that made its name by controlling beasts.

He diligently cultivated his skills, never considering shortcuts or climbing the social ladder. However, unexpectedly, someone set their sights on his handsome face.

Hearing this, Yuan Shenxing felt relieved. Now she was no longer worried about being misunderstood by everyone. However, the past was not a pleasant memory.

The leader of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect has a son known publicly as Young Master Jin Du. This man enjoys making many friends, especially handsome male cultivators.

Ruan Qingzhu pursed her lips and glanced at Yuan Shenxing's appearance. It was exactly the same male cultivator who looked like him, and a bad feeling rose in her heart.

Soon, her premonition came true.

Why is that? Because Jin Du dislikes women and prefers men! His purpose in befriending handsome male cultivators is to lust after their bodies!

One day, when Yuan Shenxing went to take care of the sect's spirit beasts, Jin Du saw his face and harbored evil intentions.

Ruan Qingzhu gasped and looked at Yuan Shenxing. It must have been quite difficult for him to escape from the clutches of the sect leader's son.

Yuan Shenxing remained expressionless. The past events did indeed annoy him, but from another perspective, Jin Du had presented him with a considerable opportunity.

Jin Du is patient and resourceful. He used Yuan Shenxing's exceptional skill in caring for spirit beasts as a reason to transfer him to his side, where he would take care of his uncontracted natal spirit beast.

That's right, this so-called destined spirit beast is the Silver Moon Wolf!

The gloom on Yuan Shenxing's face began to dissipate. In any case, he was the one who ultimately made the contract with Zhizhi. Thinking that Jin Du's efforts had all come to nothing, he felt extremely relieved.
