A genius girl with her own space

Qiqi and Xie Lei stayed in the border city for a few days and secretly searched many places, but there was no trace of the poisoner.

Qiqi and Xie Lei also explored the villages and towns outside the city, asking if they had seen any strangers there. They arrived at a pleasant-looking restaurant, sat down, and ordered a few small dishes. As they sat down to eat, they overheard a few young people chatting at the next table. "Let's go to the Misty Forest too. There's a century-old python. They say drinking its blood can increase lifespan, eating a piece of its meat boosts internal strength, and its gallbladder can be used to make medicine. Many martial arts masters gather there, so let's go check it out tomorrow," one of the young men said.

"Just the few of us wouldn't be enough to fill the giant python's teeth! Don't you know that several martial arts masters have been killed by giant pythons?"

"We've organized a lot of people to go together. There's strength in numbers. Do you want to go? It would be great if we could get a piece of python meat."

"Come on, forget it. We're just mediocre at it. We can go hunting and bully the common people, but I won't go and give my head to the giant python. If you want to go, go ahead. I won't stop you."

There was a table of several people who looked like martial artists. They came over and asked the young man where the forest with the pythons was so they could go and see it. The young man told them.

A hundred miles from here, there was a forest where many hunters were hunting. One day, they saw a hurricane blowing deep in the forest, and saw a giant python flash by. They spread the news, and word spread from one to ten, and from ten to a hundred, until it reached the martial arts world. Many martial arts masters came to the area, trying to capture or kill the python alive, to drink its blood and eat its flesh.

Qiqi and Xie Lei heard it and started talking about it quietly.

Let's go to the forest and see what the giant python is like. I'll discuss this with Master later.

Qiqi stayed at the inn in the small town. Qiqi and Xie Lei entered the space. Yun Jizi also heard the conversation of the young people. When he saw Qiqi and Xie Lei come in, he knew that they were also interested in the giant python.

"Qiqi, Xie Lei, you also want to go to the forest. I know that the giant python is full of treasures, but we haven't seen it for many years. If it is about to turn into a dragon, it will not be easy to deal with it." Yun Jizi said.

"Master, you are right. We must act cautiously. Let's first see if the martial arts masters can be a match for the giant python." Qiqi replied.

"Master, I think if we kill the giant python, we can use the snake gall to make medicine for Qiqi, so that Qiqi can improve herself as quickly as possible." Xie Lei said.

During this period, Xie Lei was practicing in the space. The old Taoist had already recognized Xie Lei and knew that Xie Lei was kind-hearted and treated Qiqi wholeheartedly. The old Taoist also taught him everything he had learned, bit by bit. Xie Lei's kung fu improved by leaps and bounds, and his lightness skills were on par with Zhou Jingze.

Qiqi heard her brother's idea, which coincided with her own. She wanted to kill or capture the giant python alive and give Xie Lei some of its blood to drink, which would increase Xie Lei's power and allow him to enter the middle stage of cultivation faster.

Xie Lei had been stuck in the early stages of his cultivation for several months, making little progress. Without the guidance of Taoist Master Yunji and the nourishment of the spiritual energy within his space, Xie Lei wouldn't have reached the early stages of his cultivation and would have remained a mere martial arts expert. Now, even the most skilled martial artists couldn't even approach Xie Lei. When Qiqi entered the immortal realm, Xie Lei would be her right-hand man.

Taoist Master Yunji was very pleased to know that they both cared about each other.

"Qiqi, Xie Lei, let's go to the forest they mentioned tomorrow. You two should take a rest." Yun Jizi said.

"Master, you should take a rest too. Let's go back to our room." After saying that, Qiqi and Xie Lei went back to their room.

Qiqi returned to the room and entered the space. "Kong Ling, has Xiaowu come out of seclusion? Where's the little red bird?"

"Master, I'm here! Xiaowu hasn't come out yet, and the little red bird is at the paulownia tree," Kong Ling said.

Qiqi walked towards the sycamore tree. She flew up and saw the little red bird curled up and sleeping. Qiqi landed on the tree and touched the little red bird's head, and the little red bird woke up immediately.

"Don't hit my master, I will fight you." The little red bird shouted in the dream, and flew up. When it saw Qiqi, it hugged Qiqi tightly and refused to let go.

"Master, as long as you're alive, there's hope." The little red bird could now communicate with Qiqi through her mind. Qiqi's space had grown larger, and the beasts within her space had also acquired new abilities. The Tiger King and the Wolf King had both advanced. The crocodile, taken into her space, was also completely subdued by the little red bird. The two small fish were also well cared for by Kong Ling. The little white fox had grown up and was as beautiful as its mother. The little white cat had been taken into Qiqi's space since she left home. Now, there was not a single stray hair on its body, and its treasure-hunting ability had been enhanced.

Qiqi stroked the little red bird, "Xiaohong, I won't let you get hurt again. Let's practice together and make progress together. Whoever hurts us, we will repay tenfold." Qiqi comforted the little red bird.

"Xiaohong, do you still remember Xiaolong? What does it look like now? It won't transform into a giant python, will it?" Qiqi asked.

"Master, the little dragon won't transform so dramatically. He will grow from a little dragon, not from a python. Master, why do you ask this? You encountered a python."

"Xiaohong, they said there was a giant python in the forest we went to, and many martial arts masters were trying to catch it, so I came to ask you, is it Xiaolong? If it is Xiaolong, I will go and protect it." Qiqi replied.

"Master, please go to the forest and take a look. I will also take a look in the space. If it is Xiaolong, I will tell you, and Xiaowu will also feel it." The little red bird said with his mind.

After Qiqi finished talking with Little Red Bird, she went to the Wolf King's territory and saw several wolf cubs playing around him. The mother wolf also stayed away from the cubs, somewhat afraid of the Wolf King. The Wolf King's pressure sometimes made the wolves that came later afraid to move.

Seeing Qiqi approaching, the wolf king greeted her with a wag of his tail. He communicated with Qiqi through his mind. Qiqi had come to see the wolf cubs. Qiqi hugged each of the seven cubs in a row. They were all very cute.

Qiqi played with the little wolf cub for a while, then left the space to rest.

Qiqi and Xie Lei drove their carriage towards the forest early in the morning. Many martial artists were also heading in the same direction as Qiqi, some of them using light martial arts to move forward quickly.

Someone tried to recruit Xie Lei to join their team, but Xie Lei refused, citing the need to protect his sister. Seeing Qi Qi also joining, they worried that Qi Qi would be a burden, so they stopped inviting Xie Lei.

When Qiqi reached the edge of the forest, he asked the secret guards to stop. He did not allow the secret guards to go in. Qiqi did not know what was going on inside and was afraid that the secret guards would be in danger. He asked them to wait for them outside the forest.

Qiqi and Xie Lei used their Qinggong skills to enter the forest and, finding a deserted area, moved their master out. The three of them quickly headed deeper into the forest, with Xie Lei in front, Qiqi in the middle, and Taoist Master Yunji protecting them from behind.

Qiqi saw many martial artists, searching and searching. Groups of them were searching for the giant python. Suddenly, they heard the sounds of fighting up ahead. There were shouts and screams. Qiqi and the other two quickly flew over and stood on a tall tree, looking down.

A giant python, over ten meters long, its body as thick as a tree, dark brown with stripes. Its tail swayed constantly, its head held proudly upright, its eyes piercing with wisdom. It gave off a powerful sense of oppression. Blood stained the edge of its mouth, presumably from a bite to its attacker.

The giant python stared intently at the human who attacked it. Seeing the people surrounding it, its eyes were filled with contempt.
