When the female supporting role has a beauty system

Chapter 1162 Xuanyu 18
Tan You had long known that all she could do in this world was accumulate time. Fortunately, the merfolk had long lifespans, so she didn't have to feel the same sense of urgency about her lifespan as cultivators.

But despite her hard work, her cultivation was progressing so slowly, which was somewhat frustrating. In that instant, Tan You frowned slightly. Her emotions weren't easily swayed, so why was she feeling this way now?

With this in mind, Tan You calmed herself down, and the first thing she did was to look at the original owner's soul. Deep within her own sea of ​​consciousness, a girl with a human body and a fish tail was quietly curled up inside a bubble, seemingly no different from before.

Tan You frowned, pondered for a moment, and then suddenly moved her fingers slightly. A series of profound spiritual energies firmly enveloped the bubble where the original owner resided. At the same time, Tan You also blocked the sharing of memories between herself and the original owner. She had a feeling that she was doing the right thing.

After completely locking the original owner within the formation, Tan You withdrew from her sea of ​​consciousness. The moment she exited, the girl inside the bubble suddenly opened her eyes, revealed a strange smile, and then fell back into slumber.

After Mingqi left the sect, Tan You was not idle either. Compared to the desolation of more than a hundred years ago, Biluo Ridge is now very lively. The spiritual plants that once developed sentience have now formed contracts with their respective destined partners under Tan You's arrangement.

Throughout the entire Biluo Ridge, apart from the Bloodthirsty Demon Vine which is contracted with a human cultivator, every single one of the others has a demon beast as their destined partner, and each one of them is beautiful, strong, and tragic.

Rather than adding to someone's success, Tan You prefers offering help in times of need. Providing a new path to survival when someone is in dire straits makes them cherish their life partner even more.

"Mingqi is going to seek revenge. I plan to go and see if you are cultivating at Biluo Ridge or..."

Before Tan You could finish speaking, things got lively around her.

A little fox jumped into Tan You's arms, rubbing its cheek against hers repeatedly: "Go out with the adults! Don't stay in the territory."

The little fox, with a round white radish atop its head, declared, "Ginseng Child wants to go with the adults too!"

"Together with the adults!"

"It's no fun without adults in the territory!"

Listening to the chattering of these spiritual plants and beasts, Tan You couldn't help but laugh: "Alright, let's go together then, but I'm warning you beforehand, you're not allowed to reveal your true form after we go out."

"As for you guys..." Tan You tapped the heads of the little fox, the little golden roc, and the little tiger, among other spirit beasts: "All of you, transform into your mimicry forms. Don't you know your own worth?"

"Jin Han and I can't protect you. If necessary, I'll have to rely on Jin Han for protection."

Jin Han was naturally the former Purple Ringed Snake. After enlightening the Purple Ringed Snake, Tan You named her Jin Han. After all, the Purple Ringed Snake could eventually become the Golden Ringed Snake King, and bestowing the surname Jin upon her was also Tan You's expectation for the Purple Ringed Snake.

Just like when Jin Yuan named her Jin Zhao.

Jin Han wrapped her arms around Tan You's wrist: "Let them hide themselves. None of the beasts that come out of Biluo Ridge can be cowards."

The small animals responded in unison, quickly transforming into palm-sized mimics and perching on Tan You's shoulder. Their natal spiritual plants were hidden within the inner cores of the spirit beasts, making their presence completely undetectable to outsiders.

No sooner had Mingqi left Biluoling than Tan You left with her entire family. She had taken all the spirit beasts and plants that once belonged to Biluoling; she could make any place Biluoling a place she wanted.

Jian Zong.

Mingyuan looked at the twelve or thirteen-year-old girl next to Mingqi with a subtle expression: "You've been gone for so long, and your daughter is already this big?"

Yao Yao suppressed her inner turmoil and respectfully greeted Ming Yuan, saying, "Yao Yao greets Father." Yao Yao had her own set of logic: she and Ming Qi were bound by a life-bound contract, so they were of equal status. Ming Yuan was Ming Qi's father, so he was also her father.

Therefore, Yao Yao's calling him "Daddy" was perfectly justified, especially since she remembered Tan You's teachings. Being a little sweet-talking after they left wouldn't hurt; although the Sword Sect was poor, it still had a solid foundation.

If they could get something good from the Sword Sect, both she and Mingqi would benefit, wouldn't they? If all else fails, it would be good to ask the elders of the Sword Sect to impart some cultivation insights.

Mingyuan was truly stunned. He looked at Mingqi, then at Yaoyao, and the next second he cried out in anguish, "You beast! I never thought I would give birth to a beast. How old is this little girl?"

"Is this your little wife?"

Even though he knew Mingyuan was sometimes a bit frivolous, Mingqi still hadn't expected him to have such a wild imagination. Mingqi rubbed his forehead in exasperation: "Dad, you're acting so fake. I don't believe you didn't notice at all."

"You're still so unlikable, not fun at all." Mingyuan's expression changed in a second. Did you think he couldn't tell?
Where is your sword bone?

Mingqi took a deep breath: "It's lost."

Mingyuan slowly narrowed his eyes: "Was it one hundred and twenty-two years ago?"

“Yes,” Mingqi pulled Yaoyao over: “Yaoyao, my life-bound contract partner, her true form is the Bloodthirsty Demon Vine.”

"Back then, my sword bone was shattered by the dissection of my dantian. It was Yaoyao who formed a life-bound contract with me, repaired my dantian, and allowed me to embark on the path of cultivation again."

Mingyuan understood. He patted Yaoyao's head, wanting to give her a gift, but unfortunately, sword cultivators were really poor, using all their spirit stones and resources on their natal sword.

So Mingyuan fumbled around for a while, and finally handed Yaoyao a box of sword balloons: "Good girl, go play with them, Daddy has more if you don't have enough."

At this moment, Mingyuan accepted the identity of his father with perfect ease.

Yao Yao blinked and looked at Ming Qi, her eyes conveying: Is that all?
Mingqi coughed softly to cover up his embarrassment: "Well... our Sword Sect is poor."

Yao Yao pouted and said, "I was mentally prepared, knowing you were poor, but I didn't expect you to be this unusually poor. You're far worse off than Biluoling."

Mingqi sighed and pinched Yaoyao's little braid: "Do you think everyone is as rich as you adults?"

"My lord? What lord?" Mingyuan's eyes flashed with a sharp light; "Where is Biluo Ridge?"

Mingqi sighed and told Mingyuan about his experiences over the past hundred years. When he heard that the master of Biluo Ridge was named Xuanyu, Mingyuan frowned: "This name sounds familiar, I feel like I've heard it somewhere before."

"Back then, when the Sea Lord of the West Sea, Sang Yue, was holding his birthday banquet, it was disrupted by someone. The one who disrupted it was Xuan Yu, a Xuan-tailed merman." Several figures suddenly appeared in the main hall. They were the elders of the Sword Sect who had been staying in the forbidden area of ​​the back mountain for many years.

Mingqi hurriedly led Yaoyao to pay her respects, and in the end, Yaoyao received... dozens of boxes of sword balloons.

I'm speechless. Everyone, from top to bottom, is so poor.

Mingyuan immediately recognized her: "I heard that Xuanwei Merfolk only exist in the Upper Realm. I wonder why this Xuanwei Merfolk ended up in the Lower Realm. She was only at the sixth level before, yet she suppressed the spirit beasts that were about to ascend, making them unable to rise up. Her methods are unpredictable."
