Cultivation Chat Group

Soft Feather increased her running speed, and she glared at Song Shuhang resentfully at the same time. “This is the second time, Senior Song. This is the end of our friendship!”

At this time, not only you aren’t comforting me, but you’re even taking a photo of me?!

Song Shuhang hurriedly said, “Wait, Soft Feather. Actually, I didn’t want to take a photo of you… No, I should say that although I really do want to take a photo, I also really want to restrain myself from doing it. However, my hands are moving on their own, and I can’t stop them.”

Earlier, he accidentally took a photo of the aggrieved Soft Feather. But this time, when he saw the aggrieved Soft Feather and got the urge to take a photo of her, he tried his best to restrain himself. Yet, he failed. It was as if his hands had a mind of their own.

Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword reminded them, “Maybe it’s because of the inner demon’s influence?”

“That’s possible,” Song Shuhang said, using the opportunity to take a few more pictures.

“Is it really due to the inner demon’s influence?” Soft Feather thought for a moment while running. “Alright, I’ll forgive you, Senior Song.”

“Thank you for your magnanimity, Fairy Soft Feather.” Song Shuhang gave a thumbs-up.

“Hehehe.” Soft Feather laughed, and went back to answering the questions from the wheel.

Doudou said, “Are you going to let Song Shuhang use the excuse of being influenced by the inner demon to do whatever he wants?”

“Is that even possible?” Song Shuhang put away his phone, and said seriously, “I still have some experience in controlling the onset of the Thrice Reckless Disease. Moreover, I have succeeded in doing so several times.”

Doudou smiled mockingly, and then turned around. Doudou doesn’t want to talk to you anymore. Here, talk to my butt.

“Let’s get back to the topic,” Song Shuhang said. “Where can I find a group of reliable and trustworthy staff to take care of spirit plants and spirit beasts?”

“How about getting a batch of people from the Black Dragon World?” Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword suggested. “It is a fact that you saved the Dragon Blood Tribe. If you were to pick a batch of ‘followers’, there should be several people from the Dragon Blood Tribe who would be willing to go with you.”

When Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword spoke, it did so in Chinese as it did not know the language of the Black Dragon World.

Song Shuhang shook his head, and said, “Forget it, doing that feels wrong. Kidnapping people isn’t a good thing.”

Moreover, the old tribal chief was sitting not too far away with a dazed expression, just as if he was thinking about something.

“Senior Song, how about you go find some diligent little monsters, and train them like my dad did?” Soft Feather said as she ran.

Her long hair fluttered as she ran, and it was very beautiful—this time, she took advantage of the free time in between questions to talk to Song Shuhang.

Doudou turned around, and said, “Or you can learn from Cave Lord Snow Wolf, and have a group of little wolf cubs. Those little cubs should be able to do plenty.”

Song Shuhang said, “By the time I have kids, the spirit plants in my Inner World will have already withered and died out. And the same goes for the spirit beasts. It will simply take too long.”

Soft Feather asked suddenly, “Eh? Senior Song, could it be that you’ve already found someone who’s willing to bear your children?”

“Not yet,” Song Shuhang replied—he had some ideas in his mind, but had yet to carry them out. He was planning on waiting until he left the Black Dragon World before giving it a try.

Regardless of success or failure, he had to give it a try.

The group tribulation this time had caused some changes to occur to Song Shuhang’s mental state.

“There are so many seniors in the group, which style is to your liking? If you need, I can help you. In fact, I have a very good relationship with the fairies in the group. We share many secrets, and there’s almost nothing we don’t talk about.” Soft Feather’s eyes shone brightly as she felt she had come across something interesting.

Before Song Shuhang could answer, Doudou sighed. “Soft Feather, you are also a fairy maiden, and compared with the seniors in the group, isn’t your age closer to Shuhang’s?”

“Eh? Eeeeh?” Soft Feather seemed to have suddenly noticed something, and became very surprised, causing her to freeze and stop running. In the next moment, she fell onto the steps inside the ‘hamster wheel’, and as she lay there, she began spinning around quickly.

Song Shuhang asked, “Soft Feather, are you alright? How about I stop the hamster wheel first?”

“No, don’t stop it, Senior Song. Don’t stop it. Just let me play for a while.” Soft Feather lay on the steps, spinning round and round. She suddenly felt that it was pretty fun, and didn’t want it to stop.

“…” Song Shuhang.

Soft Feather lay down, and said seriously, “Now that I think about it, I’ve been always saying ‘Senior Song, Senior Song’, treating Senior Song as if he were a part of my father’s generation. I never thought about how close I actually was to Senior Song’s age.”

From her words, it appeared that she had never considered the possibility of her and Song Shuhang getting together.

Lady Inner Demon’s mouth twitched.

“I am Tyrannical Song, 18 years old, please guide me. If I have offended you, you can come and fight me.” The virtuous lamia snatched a line in a timely manner. As Fairy Creation was not here, she didn’t feel any pressure when it came to snatching lines. This surprisingly caused the pleasure she derived from this to be less than usual.

Song Shuhang didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “Honestly, Soft Feather, if you continue calling me ‘Senior Song, Senior Song’, it’s quite possible that I’d start considering you as a part of my daughter’s generation in a few years. How about you take this opportunity to change how you address me?”

“Nah, I’d rather not. ‘Senior Song’ rolls off the tongue so smoothly, and it will make things very awkward between us if I were to suddenly change it.” Soft Feather giggled, and said, “If ever there comes a day that I feel like changing it, it won’t be too late to change it then.”

Song Shuhang replied, “I guess you’re right.”

“However, Senior Song, I’ve never given becoming dao companions with another person any thought. I’ve always felt it to be something I should leave for the far future,” Soft Feather said. “I’ve still got many things in mind that I haven’t completed, many things I haven’t tried, and many fun and exciting things I haven’t experienced. In the near future, I probably won’t have any thoughts of becoming or having a ‘dao companion’. Senior Song, are you in a hurry to make little Shuhangs?”

So far, in Soft Feather’s little head, she had never entertained the concept of ‘love’. In her opinion, ‘being in love’ was for a long, long time in the future, perhaps decades later, or even longer.

In fact, this was the case not only for Soft Feather, but also many powerful cultivators. Their long lifespans made them mostly easygoing, letting fate decide when it came to ‘love’.

Song Shuhang said, “I never said that I wanted to have children right away.”

“Hehehe.” Soft Feather chuckled as she heard these words. She lay on her stomach in the running wheel, and kept spinning along with it.

Doudou stretched out his paw, and stroked the fur on the top of his head. “Soft Feather’s answer is exactly what I expected.”

Soft Feather was innocent and carefree, and there weren’t too many complicated thoughts in her little head. This kind of disposition and character was really good for cultivation. Inner demons were most afraid of those with her character.

If someone were to come to like her now, they would be in for quite the headache. The current Soft Feather did not entertain the concept of love at all, unless the other party was somehow able to make her fall for them grandly in one fell swoop.

While he was speaking, Doudou took out a book titled ❮520 Beats of Love❯. He flipped to a specific page, looked at it, nodded in satisfaction, and then stored the book away. He confirmed that the situation was almost just as described in the book.

“You guys really do love jumping from one topic to another without a care.” Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword couldn’t stand it, and reminded them, “Aren’t you supposed to be discussing how Song Shuhang can find staff to take care of the spirit plants and spirit beasts inside his Inner World?”

Song Shuhang asked, “Does Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword have something in mind?”

“For the spirit plants, if they’re low-level spirit plants, then you just need to find creatures with some intelligence. However, if you’re growing high-level spirit plants, you will need a specialized spirit plant master. The same is true for raising spirit beasts. But since you practice the ❮Thirty-Three Divine Beasts’ Technique❯, you can start by gathering some disciples. The ❮Thirty-Three Divine Beasts’ Technique❯ needs to be practiced with the raising of spirit beasts to achieve maximum effect anyway.”

Song Shuhang said, “Disciples are not so easy to find.”

Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword said, “I can’t give you any advice when it comes to matters relating to disciples. But if you’re looking for spirit plant masters, you can just hire them. As long as you offer a decent wage, you can get them to work for you while you transition and get used to things. For more details, you can ask the seniors in your group. They’ll teach you what to do. They might even have some spirit plant masters with nothing to do around them. You can put up some tasks and hire suitable spirit plant masters to take care of them. Afterward, you can start training your own spirit plant masters. And after the transition period is over, you can have your own spirit plant masters take up the posts.”

“Good idea.” Song Shuhang’s eyes lit up. “And for beast taming masters, I can go to the Thirty-Three Divine Beasts’ Sect to hire some. I remember that Senior Yellow Mountain has a friendly relationship with them. I should be able to hire a batch of them while I transition.”

“You’re learning quickly,” Doudou commented.

Song Shuhang said, “Then everything is ready, except—”

“Except for one crucial element!” The virtuous lamia quickly snatched the line.

The corner of Song Shuhang’s mouth rose slightly. “No, except I’m lacking spirit stones. Be it hiring spirit plant masters or beast taming masters, both need spirit stones, and I currently don’t have any spirit stones.”

He was extremely poor, and he still owed Senior White’s several Eighth and Ninth Stage spirit stones.

The virtuous lamia: ⊙_⊙

How could this be? Did she actually snatch the wrong line?

The virtuous lamia went back into Song Shuhang’s body, feeling like she couldn’t face other people anymore.

At this time, the Dragon Network Assistant said, [Administrator Tyrannical Dragon, a large number of spirit plants and demonic beasts have been scouted. I will be sending you their coordinates.]

Song Shuhang said, “Alright, send it to me. I will make use of the next few days to collect a batch of resources.”

The Dragon Network Assistant said, [In addition, Lady Fat Ball wants to speak with you.]

Song Shuhang asked, “Didn’t Lady Kunna go into a deep sleep?”

[Something went wrong. Lady Fat Ball, who was in a deep sleep, told me to make a request to you on her behalf. Administrator Tyrannical Dragon, if you’re free, can you make a trip to Demon Emperor Hezhi’s Dragon Network Node? There are remnants of the Demon Emperor’s energy there, hindering the recovery,] the Dragon Network Assistant said. [Lady Fat Ball has guaranteed that she will give Administrator Tyrannical Dragon a reward that he will be pleased with.]

Song Shuhang thought for a while. “And the spirit plant masters and beast taming masters I’m lacking?”
