Little Junior Sister, We Can’t Handle This Grind Anymore - Chapter 88

Ying Zhao blocked Qiong Qi’s path. “No one is allowed to disturb her cultivation! If she can actually comprehend this on her own, she’s our only hope of leaving this place!”

A fierce light shone in Qiong Qi’s eyes. “Ying Zhao, you want to protect her? Do you realize that our cultivation method is the ultimate secret of us fierce beasts? If a cultivator cracks our trump card, do you know what that means?”

“Hmph! If you want revenge, find a better excuse!” The Nine-Headed Bird stretched out two of its heads, biting Qiong Qi’s wings to prevent it from moving.

“I’m not making excuses! I’m doing this to protect the Fierce Beast race! Have you ever seen a cultivator share their own techniques?” Seeing that the others wanted to protect Feng Qingran, Qiong Qi wanted to kill her even more.

“Qiong Qi is right. Everything in this world needs a balance. She’s a cultivator practicing Qi cultivation? Isn’t that stealing the cultivation resources of us fierce beasts? Someone like her cannot be allowed to live!” Hun Dun sided with Qiong Qi.

Feng Qingran dared to call it ‘stupid’ – it absolutely couldn’t tolerate her leaving alive!

This time, Tao Wu chose to side with Ying Zhao. “The resources of heaven and earth belong to no one originally; they can belong to anyone. Whoever can obtain them, keeps them. This Qi isn’t branded with the names of fierce beasts, so why can’t she practice it?”

Qiong Qi glared at Tao Wu. “Tao Wu, don’t think I don’t know your intentions. You’re just a shit-stirrer, always trying to push me and Hun Dun out of the ranks of the Four Great Fierce Beasts!”

A look of confusion appeared in the Black Wyvern’s eyes. If Tao Wu was the shit-stirrer, then what did that make them?

Of course, the Black Wyvern didn’t dare say this out loud!

Hearing Qiong Qi’s words, Tao Wu suddenly put on a righteous and awe-inspiring demeanor. “I have no such thoughts! I’m merely standing on the side of justice.”

Instantly, silence fell.

The gazes of all the fierce beasts landed on Tao Wu.

Their expressions seemed to say: When it comes to shamelessness, Tao Wu takes the crown! We can’t compare, we simply can’t compare!

Tao Wu wasn’t the slightest bit embarrassed. “What? Am I wrong? Between heaven and earth, anything without an owner is free for the taking. Besides, she’s just a little girl the size of a palm, how much Qi could she possibly absorb?”

Even You Jiao felt some admiration for Tao Wu. Compared to this guy’s shamelessness, it had to admit defeat!

“Hey, You Jiao, I suddenly feel your shamelessness is understandable. At least you’re truly shameless and don’t hide it. But this Tao Wu, with his gentlemanly appearance, is the real…” Ant Emperor couldn’t help but shake his head.

The territory of the Red Ants bordered that of the Four Great Fierce Beasts.

Skirmishes were unavoidable.

Every time, Tao Wu managed to leave unscathed.

“Um… that… I think… someone should probably stop that girl…” The Black Wyvern’s voice was very weak.

It didn’t attract the attention of the quarreling beasts.

It wasn’t until the other beasts noticed the abnormal flow of Qi around them that they stopped arguing.

“What’s going on? I can actually feel the Qi around us decreasing?” Taotie asked strangely.

“Actually… you could all look down,” the Black Wyvern whispered another reminder.

The fierce beasts looked down, and shock appeared in their eyes!

They had only looked away for a moment, and this girl had already caused such a commotion!

They saw Feng Qingran sitting on the ice lotus.

Countless droplets of various colors had gathered on the huge ice lotus!

Some water droplets jumped and danced playfully around Feng Qingran.

These crystal-clear water droplets seemed to have a spirit of their own. Those of the same color gathered together, slowly growing larger.

Feng Qingran’s eyes were tightly closed. Her hands were drawing something in the empty air.

The more her hands moved,

the more the water droplets gathered.

Then, Feng Qingran withdrew her jade-like hands, placing them on her knees, and began absorbing the water droplets in the air.

“What are those water droplets?” a fierce beast asked curiously.

“Not water droplets. They are clusters of pure Qi. They only look like this after being purified and condensed.” The Ancient Primordial Serpent spoke slowly.

Hearing the Ancient Primordial Serpent’s voice, the fierce beasts looked somewhat nervous.

This one usually never left its cave—why had it come to watch the spectacle today?

Although the Ancient Primordial Serpent’s strength only ranked within the top twenty in the Ten Realms Domain,

none of the fierce beasts present could defeat it.

“Are you saying she has truly comprehended the purest cultivation method of us fierce beasts?” You Jiao’s eyes held a trace of envy. Something it hadn’t managed to comprehend had actually been grasped by a little girl!

The Ancient Primordial Serpent’s eyes held authority without needing anger. “Not entirely. She’s still using a cultivator’s method, just slightly altered to become a method for cultivating Qi.”

Beast clans cultivate Qi, which is why their physical strength generally far surpasses that of cultivators.

Furthermore, when beast clans practice Qi cultivation, they always use their divine sense.

Thus, with equivalent cultivation levels, a beast’s strength will far exceed that of a cultivator.

“Is her method… simpler than our way of cultivating Qi?” the Black Wyvern asked cautiously.

“It is simpler. She is using a method of shaping Qi with her divine sense.”

As soon as the Ancient Primordial Serpent finished speaking, Ant Emperor asked happily, “Then if we learn this method, will our strength increase faster?”

The Ancient Primordial Serpent’s eyes turned icy. “This method is not suitable for us. While her method is good, it doesn’t suit us. If we use the method of shaping Qi with our divine sense, we might be attacked during the process, or our Qi might be stolen.”

The Ancient Primordial Serpent’s words extinguished the beasts’ interest.

Among fierce beasts, there is only self-interest, never trust.

If you painstakingly condensed a cluster of Qi, ready to absorb it, and a stronger fierce beast came along, wouldn’t you just be preparing a wedding dress for someone else?

“Isn’t she afraid we’ll go down and steal it?” Qiong Qi asked, puzzled.
