Chapter 75: Feminization Stopped, Impossible
Huang Qi’s heart tightened, convinced that sleeping would lead to feminization. Thus, upon waking up, he had already prepared for the worst. But when he looked at his left arm, he was stunned because there was no change compared to before. The hair was still there, the skin was rough, and although it was thin, he could still faintly see muscle, still as “muscular and powerful.”
“Am I hallucinating? I didn’t feminize last night?”
Huang Qi felt this was an unexpected delight. He used his slender left hand to hold up his right arm with difficulty, examining it up and down, feeling that this unfashionable male arm was more pleasing to his eyes than ever before!
“No, did feminization happen elsewhere?”
Huang Qi was a little uneasy and quickly checked other parts of his body. Only after confirming there was not the slightest change did he finally relax.
“But why didn’t I feminize after sleeping this time?”
Huang Qi immediately began to search for the reason.
“Has the feminization effect of this mask ended?”
A flash of inspiration struck Huang Qi’s mind. After all, ever since he put on this mask, he would definitely feminize after sleeping; this was something he could confirm.
“Haha, this must be it.”
Huang Qi thought about it again and again, feeling it was more and more reasonable, and immediately burst into laughter: “That’s it? That’s it? Is that all you have, you dog mask? It seems I really overestimated you! If you have the ability, continue to feminize! Can’t do it anymore?”
Huang Qi was extremely mocking, to vent the depression in his heart during this period.
After venting, Huang Qi felt comfortable all over. As long as he didn’t turn into a woman, most of his worries were gone.
Huang Qi suddenly felt that his future was full of light, so he got up to prepare dinner. The afternoon of this day was arguably the most comfortable he had experienced in recent times. As for how to solve the problem of one arm being thick and the other thin, he hadn’t considered it at all, as long as he didn’t turn into a woman, those were minor issues.
When he slept at night, Huang Qi was already convinced that the mask’s feminization effect had disappeared, so he didn’t deliberately resist sleepiness and soon fell asleep “comfortably.” This time, he had a dream again, still becoming the little Cheng Hong Ling.
…
In the HongHua Sect, Huang Qi’s body was held by his cheap father, while his mother was talking to Xu Mei in front.
“Sister-in-law, if I may be so bold, why are you and your niece both wearing veils?”
Xu Mei suddenly brought up this matter.
“Ah?”
Jiang Liniang was caught off guard.
“What’s wrong? If it’s not convenient to talk about, then pretend I didn’t ask.”
Xu Mei quickly smoothed things over.
“There’s nothing that can’t be said. I wear a veil to cover my ugliness because there’s a red mark on my face. My daughter wears a veil to conceal her beauty. You also know there are very few women in the secular world nowadays, and some men will resort to any means to continue their lineage, which has led to increasingly rampant crimes of human trafficking. Any woman with some beauty must find a way to protect herself.”
Jiang Liniang was very straightforward and revealed everything, after all, this was an Immortal Sect, and safety was not a concern at all.
“So that’s how it is!”
Xu Mei expressed her understanding and then comforted them, “Don’t worry, since you have arrived at the HongHua Sect, such things will not happen again. Niece doesn’t need to wear a veil anymore.”
“Mm!”
Jiang Liniang naturally didn’t doubt it, so she turned and took off her daughter’s veil.
Xu Mei was stunned for a moment upon seeing it, and then said in surprise, “Now I finally understand why you were so cautious. This little girl is not only beautiful, but at only three years old, she already has a hint of feminine gentleness. How will she be when she grows up?”
“Thank you, Senior Sister Xu, for the compliment.”
Jiang Liniang said modestly.
The family of three, led by Xu Mei, walked towards the mountaintop. Although the HongHua Sect had many women, Huang Qi’s body still attracted a lot of attention.
The four soon arrived at the entrance of a side hall. Xu Mei stepped forward and respectfully called out, “Sect Leader Qin! I have something to discuss with you!”
“It’s Elder Xu, come in.”
An old man’s voice immediately came from inside the room, and the door opened.
The four entered the main door and saw a white-faced, beardless old man welcoming them. He was meticulously dressed, his facial skin was smooth and fair, and his hair was black and thick. Anyone who didn’t know would probably think he was not yet sixty.
Huang Qi certainly didn’t think so, because as far as he knew, the Sect Leader of the HongHua Sect was already over eighty years old.
“Reporting to the Sect Leader, when I was testing today, I discovered an incredibly rare genius, so I specifically brought her to you.”
Xu Mei bowed and reported.
“Elder Xu, you’ve discovered a genius again?”
Sect Leader Qin’s face showed a hint of teasing and said, “When have you ever not discovered a genius during your tests? Although the talents of Ruan Lingyu and Su Qing are good, they are far from the level of genius.”
A hint of embarrassment appeared on Xu Mei’s face, but she still argued, “But this time it’s different. If you don’t believe me, you can see for yourself.”
“Oh really?”
Sect Leader Qin approached with a smile, then extended his finger and placed it on the wrist of Huang Qi’s body.
Huang Qi immediately jumped, for he actually felt a touch this time, and vaguely felt a warm current entering his arm.
“Eh?”
After a moment, Sect Leader Qin’s expression suddenly changed, his casual smile replaced by a serious expression.
Cheng Yuan and his wife exchanged glances, their nerves tightening again, wondering if Xu Mei was really the type of person who liked to brag.
“Hahaha… Hahaha…”
Sect Leader Qin suddenly burst into wild laughter, saying as he laughed, “I didn’t expect it! I didn’t expect it! Such a genius would appear in a place like our Huang Tian Prefecture! Is Heaven going to favor our HongHua Sect?”
The others looked at each other, and the doubts on their faces finally vanished.
“Wuwuwu! I knew it, after so many years, it’s finally our HongHua Sect’s turn to rise!”
After letting go, Sect Leader Qin suddenly covered his face and cried, making the others feel awkward.
Huang Qi suddenly felt his small body tremble, clearly frightened by this crazy old man.
“Sit, sit, sit! Everyone sit! I apologize! I lost my composure just now!”
Sect Leader Qin calmed his emotions and then hospitably invited them to sit down, personally going to make tea.
“Sect Leader, no, I’ll do it.”
Xu Mei quickly stopped him.
“It’s nothing, this is the reward you deserve.”
Sect Leader Qin refused.
Upon hearing this, Xu Mei’s pretty face flushed with excitement.
“I am Qin Quan, the Sect Leader of the HongHua Sect. I wonder how I should address you two?”
After serving the tea, Sect Leader Qin asked Cheng Yuan and his wife very politely.
“I am Cheng Yuan, a merchant from the Prefecture Capital. This is my wife Jiang Liniang and my daughter Cheng Hong Ling.”
Cheng Yuan cupped his hands and introduced himself.
“So it’s Brother Cheng! May I know which Immortal Cultivating Noble Family your household belongs to?”
Qin Quan suddenly asked, out of the blue.
“Ah? Immortal Cultivating Noble Family? No, no, no, my family has been merchants and farmers since ancient times, and no one has ever cultivated the immortal way!”
Cheng Yuan quickly explained.
“Then what about Sister-in-law?”
Qin Quan asked Jiang Liniang next to him again unwillingly.
“My family is the same.”
Jiang Liniang replied. Due to the veil, her expression could not be seen.
“Then you two are truly chosen ones. Without any Immortal Family bloodline, you can actually give birth to such a genius.”
Qin Quan was very surprised.
“Sect Leader Qin, you flatter me.”
Cheng Yuan quickly said modestly.
“I am not exaggerating. With her talent, she can completely catch up to the key seedlings cultivated by those super sects.”
Qin Quan praised without reservation.
“Is my daughter’s talent really that strong?”
Cheng Yuan still couldn’t believe it, as he was once just an expelled disciple from the HongHua Sect.
“Yes, after she joins the HongHua Sect, we will spare no effort to cultivate her.”
Qin Quan stated his stance.
“That’s good! That’s good!”
Cheng Yuan was finally relieved, and then said, “In a few more years, I will definitely send her to the HongHua Sect!”
“Why a few more years?”
Qin Quan asked doubtfully.
“She’s still young! A three-year-old child doesn’t understand anything and can barely recognize a few words. I must find her a private tutor first, otherwise how can she cultivate the immortal way?”
Cheng Yuan explained in confusion.
“Then let her study in the HongHua Sect. We have private tutors here, and this place is much safer than the Prefecture Capital, isn’t it?”
Qin Quan asked back confidently while drinking tea.
“But the problem is she’s too young and can’t take care of herself at all.”
Cheng Yuan’s eyes darted around.
“No matter, let your wife move in to take care of her.”
Qin Quan generously waved his hand.
Xu Mei, who was beside him, showed a surprised expression, completely not expecting the Sect Leader to be so generous. After all, one settled spot in the HongHua Sect was worth tens of thousands of taels of silver.
“That would be wonderful!”
Cheng Yuan immediately made a decision, his attitude changing 180 degrees. For years, he had been working hard outside, all for the purpose of his wife and daughter being able to settle in an Immortal Sect.
“Husband, my mother and I are coming in, so what about you alone?”
Jiang Liniang asked anxiously.
“Me? What do I have to worry about? I’m a grown man, and no human trafficker would want me.”
Cheng Yuan couldn’t help but laugh.
Jiang Liniang didn’t drop the matter, but instead pleaded with Qin Quan, “Sect Leader Qin, why don’t you let my husband live in with us as well?”
“That might not be possible. Although your daughter’s talent is good, when she first enters, she will have to start as an outer disciple. And according to the sect rules, outer disciples cannot bring any family members or servants with them. Allowing your wife to move in is already breaking the rules.”
Qin Quan’s face showed embarrassment.
“Forget it, my dear wife! Don’t make Sect Leader Qin difficult!”
Cheng Yuan quickly stopped her.
Jiang Liniang was unwilling, but it was not good to speak further.
“Elder Xu, from now on, the cultivation of this little girl will be entirely your responsibility. She is the future of our HongHua Sect. Feel free to tell me any requirements you have. Within ten years, I want to see the rise of a peerless genius.”
Qin Quan stood up and solemnly gave his orders.
…
Huang Qi was woken up by the noise this time. When he opened his eyes, it was already bright outside the window.
“It sounds like Mother’s voice!”
Huang Qi listened carefully, and the noise became clearer, with one voice seemingly belonging to his mother.
“Nonsense… not a man…”
“She… doesn’t speak… woman… rough… hands…”
…
Huang Qi listened for a while but couldn’t make out what was happening, so he quickly got up, wanting to go out and see what was going on.
Huang Qi lifted the quilt, then picked up the two balls of yarn to tie them on. But at this moment, he suddenly noticed something was wrong with his left hand.
“Alas! It seems you still won’t let me go!”
Huang Qi looked closely and sighed dejectedly. Then he pulled up his sleeve and saw that his left hand had been completely feminized! Its fair and tender appearance was no different from his right hand. The “muscular and powerful” arm was long gone.
Thus, Huang Qi’s body from the chest up had been entirely feminized!
“This time, there’s really no room for error!”
Huang Qi’s mood was heavy, but he didn’t have time to investigate further. After getting dressed, he quickly went out. He really wanted to see who, in the current situation, had such guts to dare to conflict with his mother.
