A Useless Person's Rise to Power: The Demon King's Addiction to Pampering

But Ji Qing, that brainless idiot, was determined to get close to Feng Jiutian, even going so far as to give him the Soul-Chasing Spider that was born with every member of the Ji family. He really didn't know what to say...

"You can't say that. Jiutian will still remember me."

Ji Qing thought to herself with delight, occasionally chuckling to herself, which made Ji Shen shake his head helplessly. This person was hopeless...

……

Feng Jiutian had just scanned the space pouch with his divine sense when he came to his senses and was momentarily stunned...

Thousands of mountains and Longquan!

There's even a Thousand Mountains Dragon Spring!

Feng Jiutian was overjoyed and felt grateful to Ji Qing. This way, she would no longer have to go to the extremely dangerous Yushan Mountain, and she could refine the Xuanling Pill for repairing the soul from the "Xuanling Tiangen Chapter 1" right now!

Feng Jiutian acted on his thoughts immediately. After settling Mo Qiniang in, he returned to the courtyard to seclude himself and begin refining the Xuanling Pill.

The process of refining the Xuanling Pill is not particularly difficult, but more care needs to be taken in the fusion of medicinal materials. With the help of the Red Lotus Night Flame, Feng Jiutian found refining this pill quite mentally taxing. Feng Jiutian stayed in the room for a full five days before coming out!

After the Xuanling Pill was refined, there were a total of ten pills, all of which were of the highest grade. Feng Jiutian gave them all to Xue Baihu to fuse and feed to Xuanjizi.

Although Xuanji Zi is in a divine soul state, she can still eat. Otherwise, Feng Jiutian would not feel comfortable feeding Xuanji Zi like that and would have to find another way to repair Xuanji Zi's soul from the outside.

Fortunately, Xue Baihu had been using his power to help Feng Jiutian repair Xuanjizi's soul all this time. Feng Jiutian only had to wait half an hour before Xuanjizi's shadow slowly floated out from the Void Spirit Cauldron.

"Sigh...girl..."

Xuanji Zi's soul state still seemed somewhat unstable, but she was able to stand steadily in front of Feng Jiutian, and it seemed that she was no longer in any serious danger.

He floated beside Feng Jiutian, reached out and gently touched the top of Feng Jiutian's head, took a deep breath, and uttered four words meaningfully.

"You've grown up."

"The cultivation speed of the Pure Body is truly beyond my reach. My soul has also become stronger this time I awakened. But, my dear girl, there is something I want to entrust to you..."

Feng Jiutian was slightly taken aback. She had always known that Xuanji Zi was hiding things from her and unwilling to tell her. Now it seemed that Xuanji Zi was willing to tell her everything?

"Old man, just tell me. You have shown me great kindness, and I will do whatever it takes to help you!"

Xuanji Zi's expression was not as relaxed as Feng Jiutian's; in fact, he looked somewhat solemn. After considering for a long time, he slowly said under Feng Jiutian's gaze, "I want you to help me refine a body."

"The rare and precious materials I found before are all in the place where I slumber in the Void Spirit Cauldron. However, a few things are still missing. Moreover, refining a body requires the strength of a Medicine Master. You can now refine pills at the mid-level of Medicine Saint. You can take this time to improve your strength and find the remaining materials. This will make it easier to refine a body directly after breaking through to the Medicine Master level!"

Upon hearing this, Feng Jiutian was somewhat shocked. He frowned and asked incredulously, "Can the body also be refined?"

Xuanji Zi chuckled, looking at Feng Jiutian with a touch of affection in her heart, and even more so with joy at having feelings for Feng Jiutian.

He coughed twice to conceal the amusement in his eyes, then slowly said, "Body can naturally be refined, but the conditions for refining a body are extremely harsh. Therefore, very few people in this world can be resurrected. In addition, the soul that wants to be resurrected must reach the strength of a god, otherwise... not only will it not be able to be resurrected, but it will also be reduced to ashes!"

Xuanji Zi's words struck Feng Jiutian like a hammer blow to her heart, bringing her a sudden sense of clarity. She frowned and murmured, "So that's how it is..."

No wonder Gu Luo didn't disappear into the world and instead followed Mo Shaoxie with a strange look. It turns out it wasn't entirely because the two were friends, but also because Gu Luo was going to be resurrected!

After a moment of contemplation, Feng Jiutian gazed at Xuanji Zi, who was floating in mid-air. A glint flashed in his eyes as he hesitated, wondering whether he should ask about the cause of Xuanji Zi's death...

Since Xuanji Zi told Feng Jiutian about the body he was going to refine, it means that Xuanji Zi's strength in life was no less than that of a God Venerable. Since he was a God Venerable, how could he die so easily?

Look at Yan Shi'en, he's still alive and well, and no one dares to mess with him. He was someone who followed Ling Yuan when Ling Yuan was still alive. Xuanji Zi was born after Ling Yuan's death, before his influence had dissipated. It's completely unfounded to say that Xuanji Zi died of old age!

After much hesitation, Feng Jiutian pursed her lips and decided not to ask. This was Xuanji Zi's private matter, and she should avoid touching on her painful memories.

Xuanjizi naturally took in Feng Jiutian's expression, and a hint of a smile flashed across his eyes.

His apprentice has finally picked up some human emotions. She knows not to poke at people's sore spots and didn't ask about those things. You have to understand how ruthless and venomous this girl was when she was first discovered.

However, even if Feng Jiutian didn't intend to ask, Xuanji Zi was prepared to tell Feng Jiutian the truth.

"Actually, I didn't die because I was being chased by thousands of people."

Xuanji Zi's deep, cold voice rang out: "I was ambushed and killed by my disciple amidst an ambush of ten thousand men."

"Otherwise, with my strength, how could I possibly have failed to escape!"

Feng Jiutian was taken aback and couldn't help but ask, "Then why did you take me as your disciple? Aren't you afraid I'll try to ambush you?"

"Hahahaha... In all these years, I, Xuanjizi, have only misjudged you once. Although you are sharp-tongued, you are actually soft-hearted. In this life, I, Xuanjizi, will definitely not lose out by taking you as my disciple!"

"Old man, you talk too much," Feng Jiutian said coldly, glancing at Xuanji Zi with a slightly icy tone.

It's clear that Feng Jiutian wasn't satisfied with Xuanji Zi's statement that she was "a little soft-hearted," and this was a denial.

Xuanji Zi, however, didn't make a fuss. He chuckled and stroked his beard, looking away as he shook his head and teased, "Oh dear, someone here is angry! You scared this old man to death..."

Feng Jiutian rolled her eyes at Xuanjizi again, then thought of another question. She cleared her throat and asked seriously, "What's your disciple's name? And when you first took me on as your disciple, you said I was your only disciple. Were you lying to me?"

Are you jealous?

Xuanji Zi raised an eyebrow and looked at Feng Jiutian with a playful expression, clicking her tongue in amazement: "After that kid plotted against me, I expelled him from the sect, so he can't be considered my disciple. Therefore, my statement that I only have 'you as my disciple' isn't a lie!"
