Chapter 74 - Waking Ling'er
Yesterday Jian had given the instructions to the system and after that, he came back to the sect hall to rest.
He had slept for whole twenty-four hours like a dead log. Everyone knew that Jian was tired so no one disturbed him and left him to sleep.
But Ye Qiao was getting anxious when she saw that Jian didn't wake up. She knew that Jian had the pill but she couldn't wait anymore.
While she was getting anxious and was planning on waking up Jian. He had opened his eyes and had asked the system for the time. When he heard that he slept for twenty-four hours his laziness immediately disappeared and he moved toward the stream to take bath.
While he was bathing Ye Qiao had been searching for him in the sect. Because when he went to bathe she has come out of the cave but didna seem to see Jian as he was swimming deep in the stream.
After bathing, he went back to Sect Hall. He wanted to call Ye Qiao but before he could Ye Qiao entered with Yu Yang.
" See Master is in the sect hall. Where he would disappear." Yu Yang moved towards Jian and greeted him and left the sect Hall as he had to take care of the disciples.
" Where were you? I checked the Sect Hall but you were not here." After Yu Yang left Ye Qiao moved and stood in front of Jian with a confused look.
Jian understood why didn't she find him in the sect hall. " I was bathing in the stream behind the Sect Hall."
Ye Qiao realized why she couldn't find him because she has checked every corner but didn't check the stream. She looked at Jian and was hesitating.
Jian knew why she was hesitating. He smiled " let's go we will wake her up." He stood up and moved towards and started to walk towards the cave. Ye Qiao became happy and she followed Jian.
Jian had not used Star Gaze on Ling'er because the system had warned him. But this was before Ye Qiao woke up. But even after that, he couldn't get a chance to check her. He only knew that she and her grandmother helped Ye Qiao when she was injured but then their village was attacked by the one-star sect and her soul was injured.
Jian also knew that she was unable to cultivate. Since Ye Qiao had told that he believed that it was true because she was able to tell Meng Shu's physique.
Jian and Ye Qiao reached the cave. Jian saw that a small girl under the age of twelve was sleeping. The rosiness on her face has returned and now she is wearing proper clothes and was different from when Jian saw her.
Ye Qiao moved towards her and sat beside her and looked gently at Ling'er. For the first time, Jian had seen Ye Qiao make a gentle face. He looked at her then at Ling'er and sigh then he didn't wait and activated the Star Gaze.
Name: Xie Living
Physique: Yin & Yang Meridian Body(Damaged)
Grade: Mortal Grade (Not Fixed)
Jian was shocked to see the information. He couldn't understand that if Ling'er couldn't cultivate then why did she poses a physique. Jian checked again and similar information appeared. He frowned because for the first time he had seen this type of information about the person.
Ye Qiao was looking at Jian and when she saw Jian frowning she couldn't help but ask " Is there a problem?"
Jian's attention was drawn towards Ye Qiao " Are you sure she can't become a cultivator?"
Ye Qiao frowned hearing Jian and instead of answering she asked " Why did you find anything?"
However, Jian didn't reply and kept looking at Ye Qiao as he was waiting for his answer. Ye Qiao saw this and knew that Jian is waiting for the answer. she got annoyed by seeing Jian's serious look. " Yes, I have checked with every way I can. But found that she is not able to cultivate. I even used up my remaining strength to check otherwise do you believe that those bastards will be alive. "
Jian knew from her look she was telling the truth and the bastards she was talking about were the one-star sect that attacked the village where she was living.
Jian couldn't understand what was going on and wanted to ask the system. But the system spoke before him. " Host you should accept her as your disciples I will provide her techniques free of cost.
You should not let this chance go to waste. You should not ask why Just do it and after accepting her as your disciple I will tell you everything. To wake her up use Soul Mending Pill and Meridian Opening Pill. "
Jian didn't expect that the system will force him to take linger as his disciple. And even provide suitable cultivation techniques for free of cost. He didn't ask the system why.
Jian looked at Ye Qiao " I want to accept her as my fourth disciple do you have a problem with that? Let me tell you that after feeding her Soul Mending Pill she will not wake up. You have to answer in No and I will take her as my disciple"
Ye Qiao couldn't understand Jian. She believed herself and was confident when she said that Ling'er can't cultivate. She wanted to ask Jian about he found anything but seeing that Jian was serious about accepting her as his disciple she didn't have any problem " No, I don't have any problem you accepting her as your disciple. I just want you to heal her."
Jian smiled hearing her response. In deep down, he believed that Ye Qiao will not agree as she was deeply attached to her but she wanted Ling'er to wake up so she agreed.
Jian nodded and took out two pills. Both were at four stars Grade although their quality was not high he believed it was enough for her to wake up as the system had told him about the pills. These pills were from the tomb. The system had said to use the highest grade pills.
Jian didn't hesitate he gave her Soul Mending Pill and after that, he fed her Meridian Opening Pill. As both Pills touched her mouth they dissolved and started to heal her.
Jian and Ye Qiao stood side by side and kept looking at Ling'er. Inside Ling'er body both pills had started to their work. Soul Mending Pill had merged with soul and was completing it. The Meridian Opening Pill had started to work on her Meridians and were clearing it.
Jian and Ye Qiao waited for a half-hour when for the first time they saw movement from Ling'er. They saw that impurities were started to disperse from Ling'er body and the whole cave was covered in black gunk.
" Sister Qiao " Jian and Ye Qiao heard a voice and immediately knew that Ling'er has woken up. But she was covered in the impurities thrown out of her body.
Jian suggested to Ye Qiao take her and bathe in the stream while he cleans the cave. And also meet in the sect hall. Ye Qiao nodded and picked up Ling'er and left the cave leaving Jian alone.. He sighed and started to clean.
