Chapter 0: White Tiger Primordial Lord
This tiger girl wants to bring me to see Zhao Xinting together?
How will we meet? I hope it doesn’t give Xinting some strange psychological shadow again.
However, whenever she talked about Xinting, the admiration in Jing Shixue’s tone was enough to prove how important this Human Race older brother was in her heart. This could not help but arouse Qin Gou’s great curiosity.
“That is truly something to look forward to. Can Clan Leader Jing introduce me more about the character of Cult Master Zhao, in your eyes?”
“Hmm… Brother Zhao is actually not a particularly approachable person. When I first met him, he even gave me a cold feeling that kept people a thousand miles away, but fortunately, this King quickly found a way!”
Qin Gou and Jing Shixue were jointly resisting more than ten ghostly stone figures, which were bloodless and tearless. Their conversation at this moment was completed through close-range sound transmission, allowing them to understand each other’s expressions at an extremely fast speed.
“That is, don’t care too much about your own face, take the initiative to attack directly, and get acquainted with Brother Zhao to talk about everything! The more enthusiastic and confident you are, the more the seemingly cold and aloof man will become shy and waver. Then, over time, Brother Zhao’s seemingly arrogant and unruly defenses will melt away bit by bit… But, in general, it is still sincere communication, and you must not use any false pretenses!
And once you get to know Brother Zhao well, you will discover that he also has a very gentle and elegant side. If people respect him one inch, he will respect them one foot, repay kindness with virtue, and injustice with straightforwardness, and will never mistreat those around him.”
“Why does this sound like pursuing a shy and timid girl?” Qin Gou’s mouth twitched. Did he just hear a romantic tale of ‘tsundere fears direct approach’ and ‘honest and simple fool is persistent and finally wins the goddess’s heart’?
“Ahaha, it does seem so. Cough… But, Fellow Daoist Qin, you must absolutely not say this in front of Brother Zhao! The consequences would be extremely terrifying.”
“My words won’t be a problem.”
“What?”
“Clan Leader Jing, thank you for telling me this.”
Qin Gou said with a gratified smile, “It’s not easy to hear such a kind evaluation of Xinting from others.”
Xinting, who was regarded as a demon by many Human Race cultivators, was so positively viewed by Jing Shixue, the Cloud Tiger Beast King. This matter was truly strange, but why did this feeling make Old Qin feel so familiar?
“Fellow Daoist Qin, how can you directly call Brother Zhao ‘Xinting’?” Jing Shixue was confused.
Qin Gou did not respond immediately. He slowly drew a semicircle with his feet, and then with a single thought, pure white feathers appeared out of thin air, swirling and dancing in the air. This extremely dreamlike and beautiful scene deeply impressed Jing Shixue.
“Is it snowing?”
“No, these are actually snow-white feathers…” Jing Shixue’s pretty face was full of surprise, “Is this a unique spirit art of Fellow Daoist Qin?”
“You…”
Qin Gou was shocked.
The case was solved.
This tiger girl had said before that she deeply respected Zhao Xinting’s esteemed master, but she had never truly understood Old Qin!
It was understandable that she didn’t recognize his appearance, but now she didn’t even recognize the signature magical skill of the Master of Arc-Moon Mountain. The ‘Old Master Qin’ whom this tiger girl admired was purely an image she had fantasized based on Xinting’s zealous bragging. It had probably nothing to do with the real Qin Gou.
For a moment, Qin Gou didn’t know whether to cry or laugh. He shook his head helplessly, and with a wave of his hand, endless white feathers attacked the group of strange stone figures, piercing them all like sharp blades that could cut through metal.
On the bodies of the group of stone figures, all the parts injured by the white feathers, such as a severed stone arm, were directly assimilated into snow-white feathers, flying in the air, instead of being quickly restored by the stone figures as before.
The abilities of the Divine Feather Dharma Image were divided into “One thought to the horizon” and “Feather Transformation of All Things.” The latter was not only adept at destroying corpses and eliminating traces but also had a miraculous effect in dealing with opponents with strong recovery abilities.
Before long.
The more than ten strange stone figures had completely disappeared without a trace, leaving only the layer of snow-white feathers on the ground.
“Let’s go. We might still catch up to Little Chair and the others now.” Qin Gou glanced in the direction Yi Chengying had left and said.
“Okay!”
Jing Shixue gave Qin Gou a deep look and followed his footsteps without hesitation. She had originally thought that she might have to use her ‘innate skill’ in this battle, and she might have had to ask Fellow Daoist Qin to avoid it temporarily to prevent accidental injury.
Who would have thought that Qin Gou would solve all the problems by himself? His strength was truly not to be underestimated. Moreover, the way this spirit art was performed was much more elegant and beautiful than her own wild and violent state when she went all out.
“By the way, Clan Leader Jing, you said before that as long as the two Qingqings successfully meet, they will be fine. What exactly do you mean by that?” Qin Gou asked out of curiosity. Could it be that there was some huge secret hidden in that ‘Jing Qingqing’ that was unknown?
“This…”
As they hurried along with Qin Gou, Jing Shixue hesitated for a moment before saying, “If I tell you about this, you must keep it a secret like Brother Zhao, Ren Tianxing, Xu Changhan, the two Protect the Dharma, Hall Master Jin Xingzhou… and them! You must not reveal it to outsiders!”
In Qin Gou’s stunned gaze, Jing Shixue directly uttered a string of names of cultivators from the ‘Purple Extreme Demonic Sect’… In this case, aren’t you, this tiger girl, the one who is least good at keeping secrets?!
Moreover, he had heard this tone before. It was less than half an hour ago that Pink Qingqing, that little fellow, was also saying the same thing before she frantically spilled Jing Shixue’s personal privacy!
“Clan Leader Jing, you and Qingqing Wench really live up to the mother-daughter relationship… Cough, don’t worry, this Qin will definitely keep my mouth shut.”
“Fellow Daoist Qin, why did you suddenly mention this King’s and Qingqing’s mother-daughter identity?” Jing Shixue was stunned for a moment, her tone full of surprise, “You couldn’t have already guessed? Although Qingqing is this King’s adopted daughter, she actually has another identity! Have you heard of ‘Mighty Figure Reincarnation and Re-cultivation’?”
“Of course. Could it be that Qingqing is…?” Qin Gou couldn’t help but think of Kong Ling and Mo Ning. They could actually be considered reincarnation and re-cultivation, but Mo Ning’s cultivation at that time was not that of a true mighty figure, but rather she used the special talent of the Wind and Snow Returnee.
“That’s right, Qingqing was once the strongest Beast King of our race, the ‘White Tiger Primordial Lord’!”
Jing Shixue said solemnly, but as soon as she finished speaking, she couldn’t help but add, and quickly said, “Meaning Qingqing’s bloodline is the divine beast White Tiger, one of the Four Spirits of the Beast Race. Fellow Daoist Qin, don’t misunderstand!”
“What are you talking about?” Old Qin, who was listening with wonder, was suddenly stunned by Jing Shixue’s words, “What do you mean, Clan Leader Jing?”
“Fellow Daoist Qin, you are of the Human Race, right? This King knows that among your Human Race, there are different interpretations of Qingqing’s peerless bloodline, the White Tiger body… Your Human Race’s language is sometimes quite bastardly and reckless!”
As she spoke, the corners of Jing Shixue’s mouth curled up, and she smiled charmingly, her pretty face seeming to be written with the words ‘I am a Human Race expert’, with a hint of complacency.
