Chapter 70: A Good Brother
As the crowd dispersed, the mouse squatted in front of Xiao Fan, motionless.
After a while, as if receiving some command, it suddenly ran into the alley next to it.
After watching the mouse disappear from sight, Xiao Fan turned around and walked back.
He was going back, otherwise his Brother and parents would become suspicious.
'Herding Spirits Cultivates Me...'
The spiritual nature of that mouse was taken by him, which is why it obeyed his commands implicitly.
'Herding Spirits' was what just happened.
What kind of feeling is 'Cultivates Me'?
That feeling is difficult to describe in words.
It was as if a very important part of himself had been replenished, or it could be said that it had grown stronger with the replenishment of that spiritual nature.
After being replenished by a trace of the mouse's spiritual nature, he felt that his spiritual power circulated much more smoothly, and the nature of his spiritual power also underwent an extremely subtle change.
Unfortunately, this trace of spiritual nature was too weak, and the changes he could feel were not many.
Suddenly, a mosquito flew past his eyes.
Xiao Fan's mind moved, and he instantly seized its spiritual nature. The resistance was so weak that it was almost nonexistent.
But the spiritual nature obtained was also extremely weak, almost imperceptible, probably only a few hundred thousandths of the mouse just now?
"......"
Sigh~
If he only seized the weak spiritual nature of these snakes, rats, insects, and ants, when would he see a noticeable change?
Killing it with a casual swat, Xiao Fan continued to ponder.
'It seems I need to find some large wild beasts, preferably primates.'
In fact, if he only considered the abundance of spiritual nature, the best would naturally be Human Clan Qi Refining stage cultivators.
He genuinely admired the Cang Clan now, and his perception had become somewhat distorted, but he was not yet bold enough to kill people.
Losing all spiritual nature and having one's life and death controlled by others is more terrifying than death.
'For large wild beasts, I can go outside Xuanjian City, or I can go to the exotic beast viewing garden where I used to work?'
The spiritual nature of exotic beasts might be stronger than that of ordinary wild beasts.
Just as he was thinking.
Rumble!
However, a Flying Sword with poor quality light effects and somewhat damaged sword energy and thunderous sound coating suddenly entered his line of sight.
Looking up, the person riding the sword was a young man with dyed yellow hair and a nose ring, followed by several thin young men with various colored hairstyles.
"If you don't want your contracted beast to get hurt, come with us."
The leader of the hooligans, stepping on the poor quality Flying Sword, shook the large gray mouse he was holding in his hand.
Contracted beast?
Xiao Fan's eye twitched, and his face turned cold as he said, "Get lost! I'm not in the mood to bother with you."
This shout directly intimidated the hooligan leader. Could this be someone pretending to be weak but actually strong?
"I've seen him before, he's a student from Third High School," a subordinate suddenly said.
A student!
The yellow-haired leader immediately felt emboldened.
He heard that Third High School had a Pseudo Foundation Establishment this year, but they were definitely not his match. He had properly undergone Foundation Establishment by taking Foundation Establishment Spirit Liquid.
"Hand over your beast control method, or you won't be able to leave!"
Under broad daylight, someone was actually so arrogant.
But the people passing by seemed not to see anything, coming and going, and no one even glanced at Xiao Fan's side.
He actually encountered such a vulgar plot.
Xiao Fan touched the black ring on his hand.
With this, combined with the Xuan Tian Battle Art, he should have the strength to fight. After all, it's hard to expect much combat power from these small-time hooligans.
At the same time, a thought uncontrollably appeared in his mind.
'If I seize their spiritual nature, wouldn't they have brought it upon themselves?'
Once the thought arose, it could no longer be stopped.
He was even thinking about how human spiritual nature compared to that of a mouse.
The two confronting parties seemed to have lost their minds, both ignoring an extremely important matter.
Starting a fight in broad daylight under the watchful eyes of the crowd?
Could he bear the consequences?
"You won't accept a toast, so you'll have to drink a forfeit!" The yellow-haired hooligan seemed a little impatient and reached out to grab Xiao Fan.
Just as Xiao Fan was mobilizing his spiritual power to make a move, a strong and powerful hand was faster than him, grabbing the yellow-haired hooligan by the collar.
The tall figure stood like a wall, blocking Xiao Fan.
"You want to steal something from my brother?"
It was at this moment, as if a light veil was lifted, that the people passing by finally noticed the situation here.
Huh?
Did something go wrong with these hooligans' brains, robbing people in broad daylight?
The yellow-haired hooligan looked at the anger in the eyes of the person in front of him, that unconcealed powerful aura, and was almost scared to pee his pants.
Was he a complete idiot?
Actually robbing people on the street?
Xiao Fan, standing behind Xiao Ming, was also somewhat dazed at this moment.
'I just... actually wanted to seize their spiritual nature?'
......
......
Across the street, Huo watched this farce.
If Xiao Ming hadn't intervened just now, what would have been the outcome?
With Xiao Fan's current methods, those few hooligans would definitely not be his match, even if one of them was in the Foundation Establishment stage.
Perhaps all of these people would have their spiritual nature seized by him?
Then things would have plummeted into an irreversible abyss.
Some things, once started, can never be stopped.
But because of Xiao Ming, who had been keeping an eye on his brother's situation, the above situation did not occur.
He really is a good Brother.
However... that old Cang Clan guy's methods are becoming less and less concealed.
"Are you really that confident in dealing with me?"
Huo seemed to have thought of something, smiled, and then suddenly disappeared.
............
【The building damaged by the Returning Void great cultivator's battle has now been repaired. Reporters will take you closer to the construction team this time...】
The news was being broadcast on TV.
Chi Jiuyu was lying on the high-backed sofa on the right side, her head resting on one armrest, and her legs dangling on the other, swinging back and forth.
She held her phone in her hand, occasionally chuckling.
She was not browsing the interesting posts on the Spiritual Net as usual, but was instead eagerly flipping through the messages sent by her Senior Sister last night.
Senior Sister who didn't give me a book: "Our Master went to the night market with you?"
Senior Sister who didn't give me a book: "Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"
Senior Sister who didn't give me a book: "Could it be that your departure from the sect this time was to welcome Our Master out of seclusion?"
Senior Sister who didn't give me a book: "I just calculated, and I really can't calculate you. Let's assume you didn't lie to me for now."
Senior Sister who didn't give me a book: "But I still don't believe it, unless you take a photo and send it over for me to see."
Such a low-level provocation, even if I see it, I won't reply to you.
Continuing to scroll down, it was obvious that the other side was starting to get irritable.
Senior Sister who didn't give me a book: "Reply!"
Senior Sister who didn't give me a book: "Why are you playing dead!"
Senior Sister who didn't give me a book: "/angry"
Then there was a voice message that lasted for dozens of seconds.
So funny, do you think I would listen?
But even without listening, Chi Jiuyu could imagine the content.
After another ten minutes or so, the other side sent a new message, still a voice message, but shorter.
"I just went to ask Martial Uncle, and you did go to welcome Our Master out of seclusion." Her tone became increasingly excited at this point, "Martial Uncle even told me to focus on the shift change period and not to go find you! You two master and disciple are in cahoots, wolves... Ah—!"
The sound stopped abruptly here, and no more messages were sent.
