My Daily Cultivation Life with a Clumsy Female Disciple

Chapter 78

Qin Ran rushed out to look for Chasing the Wind first thing. He was both angry and annoyed, only wanting to catch this cub Chasing the Wind and give him a good beating. But when he went out into the forest, night had fallen and the forest was pitch black. He started worrying that this silly cub might get into trouble.

When a child makes a mistake and is afraid of being punished by his parents, he runs away from home. The parents desperately look for him everywhere, angry yet also worried... This was how Qin Ran felt at the moment.

"Was it you who made Chasing the Wind run away?" He asked Li Shiyin, the other genius of Dan Peak.

"If he didn't run, wouldn't he be beaten to death by you?" Li Shiyin reasoned.

"I..." Qin Ran really wanted to punch Li Shiyin first before saying anything else. He scolded her, "Chasing the Wind is still so young. Going into the forest alone makes him a walking piece of meat... And after eating so many pills thoughtlessly, he's now a Monkey King's meat, any demon would want to eat him once he runs into the wilderness, it's just looking to die!"

"What is Monkey King's meat?" Li Shiyin was totally indifferent. What wilderness, it was still within Dan Peak, what danger could there possibly be in Dan Peak?

Luckily Chasing the Wind was fat and couldn't run very fast. Qin Ran and Li Shiyin soon found him, catching sight of him when he first got up from resting under a tree.

"Master, shouldn't we go down and catch him?" Li Shiyin whispered.

"Shh..." Qin Ran motioned for Li Shiyin to keep quiet. Chasing the Wind was a tiger, his hearing was extremely good, it would be very easy for him to overhear them. He said, "Wait, let him experience the dangers of the world."

Li Shiyin looked at Qin Ran. He had used the same approach on her during this sword forging... Very well, he was going to put Chasing the Wind through the same thing too.

Master and disciple followed behind Chasing the Wind, watching ferocious birds of prey and beasts attracted by his scent gradually surround him while he remained obliviously happy.

"Chasing the Wind..." Li Shiyin softly called out his name, breaking out in cold sweat for him.

The fat tiger finally noticed those vicious birds and beasts. He grinned foolishly at them in a friendly manner.

"Ah, he's so stupid!" Li Shiyin silently cursed.

Qin Ran couldn't help but glance at her.

The silly tiger was pounced on and bitten by a purple electric tailed weasel...

"Go hit him!" Li Shiyin anxiously murmured.

Chasing the Wind's blood dispersed into the air, provoking those animals...

"Quick... Run quickly!" Li Shiyin shouted softly.

Such strong empathy, even Qin Ran next to her grew tense.

Chasing the Wind finally reacted to flee, madly absorbing the efficacies of pills and spiritual energy to accelerate...

"Well done, Chasing the Wind!" Li Shiyin cheered.

But before she could praise him further after he successfully evaded the purple electric tailed weasel for the first time, she saw the silver-winged owl swoop down...

"Ah! Chasing the Wind!" She was badly frightened, crying out as she sliced the silver-winged owl with one sword strike, then swiftly rushed towards Chasing the Wind.

Landing on the ground and arriving before him, she kept her sword and knelt down to slowly lift up Chasing the Wind's upper body. Her heart shattered into pieces...

Wait no, it hadn't shattered yet!

"Hmm?" Li Shiyin suddenly realized something was off. Why was the bisected upper body of Chasing the Wind still so heavy?

Looking closely, she discovered that Chasing the Wind was still in one piece with his lower body. It was just that his lower half had turned black and blended into the darkness.

"Meow– Meow–" Chasing the Wind in Li Shiyin's arms kept rubbing his head against her hand as he meowed incessantly, recounting his immense fear.

"Huh?" Li Shiyin looked back at Qin Ran who had caught up and asked in puzzlement, "Master, what exactly happened here?"

Qin Ran also squatted down to check on Chasing the Wind's state before understanding what transpired. He explained, "Chasing the Wind's innate talent has awakened. Profound Underworld Spirit Tigers can manipulate darkness and blend themselves into it. This is very normal."

"Phew..." Li Shiyin heaved a sigh of relief as she picked Chasing the Wind up, using his fur to wipe her tears. "Scared me to death."

"That's what you get with your harebrained ideas." Qin Ran said unpleasantly, "Luckily nothing happened, if Chasing the Wind died, he would go down in history as the first 7th-tier Demon King to be bitten to death by wild beasts. That would be quite an achievement."

His head really hurt. Every single one of them was a damned brat giving him nonstop headaches.

Carrying Chasing the Wind, the two people and one cat quickly returned before the log cabin using their movement techniques. The first floor had already been wrecked by Chasing the Wind, the lighting spell array was busted, leaving the interior and exterior of the cabin pitch-black.

Arriving before the cabin, a voice sounded from the rocking chair Li Shiyin was lying in earlier, "Found him?" It was Long Qiqi's voice.

Li Shiyin was badly startled, scolding, "Can't you make some sound before speaking?"

"But I'm a snake..." Long Qiqi was utterly shameless about it.

Qin Ran went to turn on the lights along the second-floor corridor, illuminating the outside of the cabin. He brought over two chairs for him and Li Shiyin to sit down in before tossing Chasing the Wind to the opposite side.

The two people and one snake sat to one side while the tiger crouched opposite them. The first ever Dan Peak trial meeting began on the grass field outside the wooden cabin of Dan Peak.

"That's the cat?" Long Qiqi sat up and scrutinized the fat and silly-looking Chasing the Wind in suspicion. Was this the esteemed and mighty creature that had made her feel immense dread?

After running half the night depleting much of his pill efficacies and spiritual energy, Chasing the Wind was no longer a furball at the moment. He was just a tremendously fat, fat tiger, an acceptable degree of fat.

"It's Chasing the Wind indeed." Li Shiyin said.

"What is his bloodline?" Long Qiqi asked again.

"Master said a Profound Underworld Spirit Tiger."

"Profound Underworld Spirit Tiger?!" Long Qiqi was shocked. "Demon King! He's the 7th tier Demon King of the Land of Immortal Legacy?!"

This chubby, silly, harmless, extremely docile big cat was actually a Demon King? Long Qiqi found it somewhat unbelievable.

"Chasing the Wind!" Qin Ran loudly shouted Chasing the Wind's name, frightening him into hopping up to a sitting position. He hung his head low, looking even more aggrieved as he waited there. "Do you know your wrongdoings?!"

Chasing the Wind blankly lifted his head, his eyes rounding up once more to gaze at Qin Ran in confusion. He didn't know what wrongs he had committed at all.

Seeing Chasing the Wind's appearance caused the anger Qin Ran had barely suppressed to rapidly boil up again.

He pointed at Chasing the Wind, about to enumerate his ten greatest evil deeds, "You–"

"Master..." Li Shiyin promptly spoke up, "Master, please rein in your anger and let me talk to him instead."

Qin Ran looked at Li Shiyin. Although he felt Li Shiyin was unreliable too, he still thought he ought to calm down. So he kept silent.

"Chasing the Wind..." Li Shiyin said,

"Here are the heinous crimes you have committed:

"Firstly, you wrecked the room, the walls, arrays, everything is damaged. Secondly, you destroyed furniture including the sofa, coffee table, dining table, refrigerator. Thirdly, you wasted the ingredients in the refrigerator. Fourthly, you wasted precious pills. Fifthly, you ruined countless medicinal plants in the research building. Sixthly, you ruined countless pills in the research building..."

Chasing the Wind blinked blankly, not understanding how those were considered mistakes at all.

Qin Ran gazed at Chasing the Wind, falling into deep thought. He was a demonic beast, his worldview and perspective were completely different from humans. It looked to be a difficult and lengthy process to enlighten him on the civilized path.

But there was one slightly consoling point - his black technology pills and poison pills were stored on the higher levels of the building. Otherwise, coming back would surely mean seeing only a cat corpse...

Thinking of this, Qin Ran felt furious again!

He abruptly stood up, startling the three people and one cat before him. But he didn't take any further action or say anything else. After glaring at Chasing the Wind, he turned and went into the cabin.

Like hell they were going to hold any damned trial!

"Direct labor reform, sentence him to indefinite hard labor!" He left behind this one line before vanishing into the pitch darkness of the log cabin, "He'll be serving his sentence in Dan Peak forever!"

Li Shiyin stood up and pointed at Chasing the Wind, laughing. "Chasing the Wind, sucks to be you from now on!"

Chasing the Wind raised his paw to lick it, feeling his claws itch slightly again.

"So..." Seeing Qin Ran and Li Shiyin had both gone back to their rooms, Long Qiqi asked doubtfully, "Where do I sleep?"
