Daily life of a cultivation judge

Chapter 553 Unexpected harvests (2)

But now just the air created as he formed a single drop would have effects on those around. All shallow to mid injuries of anyone at the core formation and below within a 20-meter radius of him got healed, and his spring of resplendence dew, now required half of the qi it required to cast, and its effects were twice as powerful. It even seemed to have a miasma detoxifying abilities, which Yang Qing guessed was because of the passive ability of his yin yang jade bones that gave him immunity to 10,000 different toxins. The number has never been proved, but it was meant to highlight his level of immunity to all kinds of toxins and miasma.

Yang Qing pushed his arts to the limit and see the levels he could reach as he made sure to note every minute change. When he was done with his rounds, he shared the findings with Ren Shu and his grandfather who had been around.

To test how huge of a boost his physique gave him, Ren Shu had Yang Qing try and detoxify the poison that was still on Branch Chief Lei Han’s and Hao Da’s bodies.

Yang Qing was able to detoxify a quarter of it on Hao Da’s body, but that was only after expending half of his spiritual qi in the formation of the spring of resplendent dew.

One would look at the results and think they were lackluster, but Ren Shu was amazed by the results for several factors. One was, that the poison was from the evolving obsidian serpent, so it was one of the most potent poisons one could ever come across considering the flood dragons other than their strength, they were famous for their poisons. It was potent to the extent that poison from a peak domain stage flood dragon was capable of harming an early-stage soul formation expert.

Even though the obsidian serpent had not fully evolved into one, its evolutionary state meant it had some of its abilities slowly budding. Other than the toxicity of the poison, the other factor was the disparity in strength between the two. Yang Qing was only in the second stage of the palace realm while the obsidian serpent was already half a step into the seventh stage.

Yang Qing being able to detoxify its poison even just the tiniest amount would be considered an impossible feat let alone a quarter of it.

For the next few hours, Yang Qing was turned into a lab rat by Ren Shu, his grandfather, some of the seasoned seniors from the Medical Valley, and at some point, even the valley master herself made an appearance.

It was only because of some meeting that was called at Spirit Mountain, did Yang Qing finally had room to escape. He instantly regretted showing off as he did.

After the Medical Valley, Yang Qing had a casual meetup with Dai Chen and Zhang Qinggee to inform them of his departure. He also found Lai Lei with them whom he requested to check in on Ma Yuan now and then when he came to use the nest of the celestial nesting weaver in his place for his preparation to break through to the palace realm.

When he was finished, he went to his parent’s place to give his mother the news that he wouldn’t be around for a month lest she worry something happened to him when he didn’t come visit her.

She hid her worry well as she wished Yang Qing well while packing him lots of dishes to carry. Yang Qing was ecstatic, the only sour part, was when she sneakily tried to bring up Mao Yunru into the conversation which prompted Yang Qing to make a run for it.

…

One hour later, Thousands Flavor Restaurant,

“What is with mom bringing up Mao Mao every time she gets?” Yang Qing muttered in frustration as he made his way to the restaurant.

“She should either be here or arriving in a couple of minutes..” he added as he entered the restaurant.

“She hasn’t arrived yet…” he muttered to himself as he scanned the restaurant.

He promptly made his way to his usual table and ordered a few dozen spring rolls with rice.

In the process of making his order, his usual gluttonous excited state paused for a millisecond as he turned his head to the door in time to see a beautiful lady with black hair, limpid purple eyes with swirling clouds in them, and a beauty that words fell short of, and made mutes of many.

Yang Qing quickly recollected himself and added a few more orders, as he waved to the lady to join him.

“Hi, Qing..”

Yang Qing who had prepared how he was going to tease Mao Yunru like usual immediately froze when he heard her words.

lightsnοvεl.cοm “Qing?”

“It is still your name, right? not unless you changed your name to something outlandish like the food priest, with Feng Xin being the food fiend..” Mao Yunru cheekily said as she relishingly took in the sight of Yang Qing being flustered.

“I am glad I did it, wuuuh, I almost bit my tongue toward the end there. Look at him, hehehe…” she amusedly thought.

“But you never called me that before..” Yang Qing answered with a mildly shaky voice which he tried to hide but there was no way the gossip hoarder would miss something key like that.

“Well… back then I didn’t use it because you were my mentor, it would have been too casual, but now I can be as casual as I want. Besides, Qing has a nice ring to it. It sounds like the name of a cunning deer.. and I…” Mao Yunru hurriedly closed her mouth before the next words slipped out.

Yang Qing who had been looking for a way out quickly grasped the opportunity.

“You what, Mao Mao? I am rather curious…What are deers to you?” asked Yang Qing with a triumphant smile.

His smile grew wider when he saw her look turned flustered.

“You….you…could I please have steamed lotus root and sticky rice and glacial bamboo wine? He is paying..” Mao Yunru quickly said trying to deflect and assuage her nervousness.

Yang Qing didn’t press and decided to enjoy the spring rolls that were next to him.

“This smug bastard..” Mao Yunru angrily thought as she saw the gleeful look Yang Qing had on.

“You?” Yang Qing was immediately caught off guard when Mao Yunru sniped all his spring rolls in a single flash and ate them all.

“How petty can you be?” asked Yang Qing in surprise when he saw her use shadow-void steps to grab those spring rolls and immediately transform them into jelly which she slurped in one motion like noodles.

“Well, I did have one of the pettiest mentors. It’s not my fault I gained certain habits..” Mao Yunru smugly said.
