Immortal Father - Chapter 40.2 - Qingsu Doesn't Understand

Qingsu seemed to understand and nodded slowly. “I see… I’m going to cultivate. You can play with Ningning. You did very well in this competition.”

Li Ping’an smiled. “It’s all thanks to your guidance, Master.”

When Qingsu turned around and floated into the inner cave, she was still murmuring, “It would have been better if the competition had been a few years later.”

As soon as Qingsu left, Mu Ningning cheered. “Senior Brother! So many spirit stones! You won’t use them up in a thousand years!”

Li Ping’an smiled and shook his head. He untied his belt and walked back to his recliner to relax his tense mind.

He smiled and said, “Take as many as you want. Choose two immortal treasures later. This is called ‘those who see will get a share’.”

“I don’t want anything!” Mu Ningning jumped over with her hands behind her back, and her clothes trembled slightly. At this moment, she was clearly overjoyed and smiled.

“I won’t take advantage of you, and you don’t have anything to ask me for.

“Senior Brother, when I lack spirit stones in the future, I’ll go to your place to freeload and use the Spirit Gathering Array.”

“Is there a need to be polite between us?” Li Ping’an smiled. “I have no plans on going out in the next few years, and these spirit stones are of little use. If I really only use them for the Spirit Gathering Array, it will really take a thousand years to use them up.

“If you like something, you can ask an outer sect deacon to buy it. Cultivation in the mountains is boring, so you have to find some fun yourself.

“A group of elders dragged my father to study that magic artifact. I don’t know if he can bear it.”

“Senior Brother, how did you come up with it?” Mu Ningning sat on a recliner nearby and placed her two slender and round legs on the armrests. Her eyes didn’t conceal her admiration at all, and her pink lips praised, “When I came over, my master and the others were discussing this matter. They said that set of magic artifacts could earn a lot of spirit stones for the sect.

“Hehe, you didn’t see it at the time. The faces of the immortals of Opening Cloud Peak were all green, and Wang Zaizhi had a mournful face, looking like a frost-bitten fruit.

“Such ingenuity is really amazing!”

Li Ping’an smiled and didn’t explain much.

The first step of industrial artificing in the Myriad Cloud Sect today would definitely have some impact on this cultivation world.

For now, his father’s status in the sect had risen again!

As long as Li Ping’an thought of the slightly bitter eyes of the sect master when he returned to the cave abode with his master, he wanted to laugh.

Originally, this ‘production line magic artifact’ could have been kept secret for at least a few years.

But because of the sect master’s confidence, several sect masters of friend sects knew about it. If the sect master didn’t cut off a piece of his flesh and give it to them, it would probably be difficult to settle the matter.

Nothing ventured, nothing gained.

If these friend sects participated in this matter, it could increase the influence of the Myriad Cloud Sect among the righteous immortal sects.

It all depended on how the sect master chose.

“Actually…” Li Ping’an smiled. “This set of magic artifacts isn’t completely perfected yet, and there’s still a lot of room for improvement. It’s very difficult for me and my father to develop it further alone, so we need to work together with the sect.

“I originally planned to take out this treasure when my father was a True Immortal. But this time, I encountered Wang Zaizhi’s provocation in the internal sect competition. After thinking about it carefully, I decided to use the Spirit Explosion Art to suppress him and then take advantage of the situation to offer this set of magic artifacts.

“My father will be very busy for a while… Junior Sister, this is for you.”

Mu Ningning took the jade talisman that Li Ping’an threw over and blinked. “What is this?”

“The complete Spirit Explosion Art.” Li Ping’an added half a sentence in his head, … the improved and simplified version.

Mu Ningning hurriedly said, “This technique is too precious.”

“It’s just a technique I created myself. What’s so precious about it?”

Li Ping’an handed over two ring-shaped storage magic treasures. “There are two hundred magic artifact flying needles here. You can master the control of these magic artifacts. The Spirit Explosion Art can be used before becoming an immortal, but it consumes a lot of mental energy…”

Mu Ningning actually couldn’t hear clearly what Li Ping’an said.

She held the jade talisman to her chest, pursed her lips, and looked at Li Ping’an’s side profile, ripples appearing in her heart.

… Until Li Ping’an waved his big hand in front of her.

Mu Ningning quickly returned to her senses, her pretty face slightly red. She turned around, sat upright on the recliner, looked down at the storage magic treasures in her hands with a silly expression, and whispered, “Then, I’ll accept it. Thank you, Senior Brother.”

Seeing that the beauty was so soft and fragrant, Li Ping’an took a few more glances.

Although he was not a veteran in love, he had some experience and knew that as long as he struck while the iron was hot, he could solidify their relationship.

Most importantly, the father and son now had a foundation in the Myriad Cloud Sect other than the protection of the founding ancestor, so their sense of security had increased a lot…

Moreover, Li Ping’an knew that he couldn’t remain silent.

If he was ambiguous, vague, and didn’t explain these things, her heart might gradually fade away.

Li Ping’an thought for a while and asked softly, “Junior Sister Mu, are you willing to find a Dao companion to walk the immortal path with you in the future?”

“Yes,” Mu Ningning replied and looked up at Li Ping’an. “I-I’m willing.”

“Yeah, me too.” Li Ping’an lowered his head and coughed. He took out a bamboo scroll and pretended to read it carefully.

Mu Ningning was clearly stunned. She bit her pink lips and turned her head to the other side to study the texture of the cave abode’s stone wall.

She suddenly laughed and then pursed her lips to hold it in. At this moment, she seemed to be conflicted about something. Her two fingers pinched the side of her skirt hard, and her fingertips turned white.

Master Qingxu’s earnest teachings were still echoing in Mu Ningning’s ears.

Previously, Senior Brother Ping’an had been at the Flowing Cloud Temple and never left, so the disciples of the sect didn’t know how outstanding he was.

Now, in the internal sect competition, Senior Brother Ping’an had become famous in one fell swoop with his Spirit Explosion Art and obtained a great reward by offering his set of magic artifacts to the sect. There would definitely be heaven’s chosen daughters who would have some thoughts about him.

Clear thoughts, clear thoughts!

“Um! Senior Brother!” Mu Ningning suddenly sat up, looked sideways at Li Ping’an, and pursed her lips tightly.

Li Ping’an didn’t understand. “What’s wrong?”

“I, I… um…” Mu Ningning looked to the side again and whispered, “If I get stuck at a bottleneck in the future, can… can I come to your side to cultivate?”

“Of course.” Li Ping’an smiled. “As long as your aunt-master allows it, you can come at any time. I will open another bedroom in the corner for you later.”

Senior Brother also has feelings for me! Mu Ningning’s Dao Heart trembled slightly, but she finally mustered her courage and clenched her fists tightly. Her voice was a few degrees higher than usual, and her words were incoherent. “Well, um, I actually want to say that if you want to find a Dao companion, you can… that is… um…”

A voice suddenly sounded in the cave abode. “I allow it. Ningning can come to us at any time.”

Mu Ningning was stunned, and her pretty face turned red and hot at a speed visible to the naked eye. The tip of her nose made a humming sound as she turned around and ran away.

Looking at Mu Ningning’s flustered retreating figure, Li Ping’an couldn’t help laughing.

In the depths of the cave abode, beside the hot spring…

Seeing this, Qingsu was a little confused. When has Ningning become so rude? She ran away without even saying goodbye. Moreover, the magic power in her body is turbulent, and her primordial soul is restless. Is this a sign of qi deviation?

What is my disciple laughing at?

At this moment, Qingsu’s immortal sense caught a white cloud. A charming female immortal who looked familiar landed on the cloud.

“Master, Elder Xiao Yue is here.” Li Ping’an’s shout came. “Do you want to see this elder?”
