The head master has a new female apprentice

Chapter 147 Can I...Call You Daddy? (6k)

Zhou Qing was speechless after hearing this.

"Preferring sons over daughters? What era is this? How can such a mindset still exist? In my opinion, whether it's a son or a daughter, they are both my own children and should be loved equally."

When Lu Yaoyao heard this, a smile immediately spread across her face. She then asked, "Back to the topic, why didn't you tell her who her mother was?"

Zhou Qing stood up and sat up. After a moment of thought, he said, "Since it's a hypothesis, there are so many possibilities. For example, her mother is the saint of a major sect, the princess of a certain cultivation country, or she simply died, leaving me to raise my daughter alone, and I can't tell her... Pah, pah, pah, what kind of crappy hypothesis is this?"

"If I have a Taoist partner and a daughter in the future, I will definitely protect them both well and will not let them be bullied." Zhou Qing suddenly said seriously.

Hearing this, tears welled up in Lu Yaoyao's eyes and a happy smile appeared on her face.

[Heart Judgment Points +9]

The next moment, the original "Awesome" on her head instantly turned into the note "Good man".

After a brief hesitation, she bit her lip and looked at Zhou Qing, whose face was full of longing. As if mustering up great courage, she couldn't help but say, "Brother Zhou, can I... call you Dad?"

puff-

Zhou Qing was caught off guard and fell directly from the tree.

He only heard a cry of "Ouch" and the rustling of leaves before he crawled out of the bushes with a grin on his face. He came up again, looked at Lu Yaoyao with a twitching face, and said with a helpless smile: "Stop it!"

Seeing this, Lu Yaoyao burst out laughing, then she lay down on a tree branch, waved her hands, and said with a smile, "I'm just kidding you, look how nervous you are."

Zhou Qing also breathed a sigh of relief. Girls nowadays are really unpredictable and their ideas are crazy.

Not to mention the head teacher, even if the five muscular men including Li Daoxuan heard about it, they would definitely rush up in anger and beat the shit out of him.

Forget it, after this matter is over, I'd better stay away from this girl. The words she said out of the blue are really scary.

…………

Lingku Mountain is located southwest of the Blood Rock Mine of Cangyan Dao Palace. The mountain here is made of a strange black rock covered with dense holes.

The shape of the mountain is even more rugged and steep, with sharp peaks piercing the sky, like huge white bone thorns that make people feel cold.

Moreover, there is a layer of gray-white mist that lingers on the mountainside all year round. It is slightly poisonous. Anyone who enters it will easily get lost if they do not have a strong spiritual sense.

What is strange is that when countless animals around sense that their lifespan is coming to an end, they will travel thousands of miles to come here, then find a place, roar to the sky, and complete the last journey of their lives.

This resulted in the area being filled with bones and ghost fires, hence the name of Lingku Mountain.

The Cang Yan Taoist Palace had also sent people here to investigate this strange sight, but they returned empty-handed every time. I think it must be the shape of this mountain that made these unintelligent monsters regard it as a holy place in their hearts.

shhhhhh!
More than a dozen figures dressed in the clothing of Cang Yan Taoist Palace came flying with swords, and then landed quietly.

The leader exuded the cultivation of an early Nascent Soul Realm, while the others were all in the Golden Core Realm, each of them looking nervous and excited.

"Senior Brother Li, it looks like that beast hasn't come yet." A Jindan realm disciple said to Li Hong, who was in the Yuanying realm, unable to hide his excitement.

Li Hong's heart surged with emotion as he sneered, "I never thought that the Thunder Sound Golden Toad has already reached the middle stage of the Nascent Soul Realm and can even speak human language. Now that its lifespan is drawing to a close, it still believes in such things like those unintelligent monsters. It's truly ridiculous!"

Upon hearing this, everyone nodded in agreement.

They have always been under surveillance and vigilance towards this close neighbor of the Blood Rock Mine, and have lived in peace for many years.

However, in recent years, its life has begun to weaken. Once the news was reported, elders in the late Nascent Soul stage rushed over excitedly.

Unexpectedly, the Thunder Sound Golden Toad was just pretending. Relying on its own talent, it actually severely injured the late Nascent Soul Realm elder.

After that, it broke into the Blood Rock Mine and caused a lot of trouble, resulting in the deaths of many miners and disciples, and left a warning.

But Li Hong always felt that something was wrong, so he kept an eye on it and observed secretly.

In fact, he made the right bet. The Thunder Toad was indeed nearing the end of its lifespan, and that battle was just a last-ditch effort before death.

Until this time, the subordinates reported that the Thunder Sound Golden Toad quietly left the cave in the middle of the night. Judging from its route, its target must be Lingku Mountain.

Because of the close distance, they arrived early.

"Don't act rashly. Keep everything as it is. This beast's final counterattack will surely be terrifying!"

After Li Hong gave the order, he led everyone to hide quickly.

No one noticed that Zhou Qing and Lu Yaoyao were cautiously poking their heads out from behind a pile of earth not far away.

Lu Yaoyao's face was filled with worry. She whispered, "This is such bad luck! Normally, no one should come to this place. What should I do now?"

After all, she and Senior Brother Zhou were both at the Golden Core stage. Even if Senior Brother Zhou was skilled in poisoning, it would be difficult for him to do so in the face of so many people. Moreover, this place was not far from the mine of the Cang Yan Taoist Palace.

Zhou Qing's eyes lit up.

A golden toad of thunder and lightning that is about to pass away is full of treasures.

The number of Yuanying realm masters is a bit small, so it is probably rare to find ignore points.

"Come closer!" Zhou Qing said secretly.

Lu Yaoyao was stunned. Shouldn't we leave quietly, go around from the other side, and hurry up to find the forbidden inheritance?

Could it be that he wants to catch the cicada while the oriole is behind?

Lu Yaoyao seemed to have thought of something, and stopped asking questions. She quickly tiptoed over and followed Zhou Qing.

"Do you remember the hiding places of those people just now?" Zhou Qing asked quietly, lowering his voice.

Lu Yaoyao nodded quickly and responded softly, "I'll remember."

"Okay, don't have any distracting thoughts now, just stare at them closely. I'll make some preparations, and just pretend I don't exist." Zhou Qing whispered.

Lu Yaoyao immediately patted her chest gently, looking as if she was relieved.

Then he carefully stuck his head out and looked intently at the key positions in front of him.

The corners of Zhou Qing's mouth rose slightly, revealing a meaningful smile.

I just don't know how to explain to her my Nascent Soul stage cultivation level when the time comes.

Forget it, I'd better cover it up with "The Dharma Image of the Void Realm".

Then he took out a straw hat, covered his face with it, and lay down to the side, ready to take a nap.

Lu Yaoyao never looked back, nor was she curious about what Zhou Qing was preparing for. She just stared straight ahead, concentrating on carrying out the surveillance mission.

Ignore point + 3

About half an hour later, the long-lost reminder sound suddenly rang in my ears.

A hint of joy appeared on Zhou Qing's face. It seemed that the plan was feasible.

It would be great if all opponents were in the Nascent Soul stage, then the points obtained would definitely be a lot.

Ignore point + 4

After another stick of incense, the reminder sound came again.

In this way, time passed slowly until night fell and the sky became completely dark. After Zhou Qing had hit 20 ignore points in succession, there was a sudden slight tremor from the ground.

Lu Yaoyao rubbed her sore eyes, turned around quickly, and said in a low voice, "Brother Zhou, don't sleep... eh? Sleep?"

Zhou Qing took off his straw hat, made a silent gesture, and whispered, "Hide your breath."

After saying that, he quietly got up.

Li Hong and the others who were hiding in the front were also very nervous at this moment. They didn't dare to breathe and their eyes were fixed on the front.

Under the cover of night, the ground continued to tremble. Soon, an extremely huge figure, like a slowly moving hill, slowly came into view.

It was a dark green toad with a broad back covered with slightly raised golden bumps.

What's strange is that on these golden lumps, there are actually silver-blue arcs of lightning flashing from time to time, adding a bit of eerie light to the surroundings.

The two lantern-sized eyes were now half-open and half-closed, and the pupils even became a little cloudy.

A kind of fading vitality emanated from it, a feeling of being gloomy yet holding on, just like a candle that was about to burn out of oil and was just trying to flicker a little.

When the Thunder Sound Golden Toad arrived at the foot of Lingku Mountain, it stopped jumping forward and slowly looked up at the top of the mountain.

"I'm unwilling!" It actually uttered an old human voice, and then climbed up the mountain little by little.

"Let's go!" Li Hong and the others' eyes were full of excitement. They lowered their bodies and followed quietly.

Zhou Qingze looked at the time. It would be half an hour before midnight, and the [Daily Review] would be refreshed at that time.

Looking at the Thunder Sound Golden Toad whose life was about to come to an end, Zhou Qing felt inexplicably uneasy.

Perhaps it was the strong visual impact brought by the huge body, or perhaps it was the first time he encountered a Yuanying realm monster that could speak human words, he subconsciously cast [Daily Review] towards the back of the Thunder Sound Golden Toad that was gradually moving away.

[The Impending Doom of the Demonic Beast: This is a Thunder Sound Golden Toad, whose life will end within three days. Unwilling to resign, it has come to Spirit Skull Mountain to search for the remains of the Suanni. If it can refine them, it will instantly break through to the late Nascent Soul stage and extend its lifespan. Although it has come countless times, this is its last chance, but unfortunately, it hasn't arrived on a full moon night.]

Seeing the feedback, Zhou Qing was filled with disbelief.

The remains of Suanni, I didn’t expect that there really were remains of Suanni here!

You know, the Suanni, like the Flame Crocodile and even the Three-legged Golden Crow, all have extremely ancient bloodlines and are all legendary powerful monsters. Lu Yaoyao didn't lie to me, so doesn't that mean this place also has the legacy of a master who can set up the Five-Colored Restriction?
By the way, the system just mentioned “It’s a pity that it’s not the night of the full moon”, what does this mean?
Could it be that--

Zhou Qing suddenly raised his head and looked at the crescent moon in the sky. He seemed to have guessed something and suddenly felt his heart beating uncontrollably.

"Senior Brother Zhou, what should we do now?" At this moment, Lu Yaoyao suddenly became excited.

It feels so exciting to be a oriole.

Zhou Qing came back to his senses from his deep thoughts and said calmly, "Don't worry, wait and see if there are any other yellow birds."

Anyway, this Thunder Sound Golden Toad still has three days to live. According to the information fed back by the system, it seems to be not far from the late Nascent Soul stage.

Moreover, monsters are different from humans. They have strong physiques, long lifespans, and almost no bottlenecks. The only difference is that their cultivation is relatively slow, which is exactly the opposite of humans.

So, God is fair!

Just as the Yuanying realm cultivator just said, if the opponent counterattacks before dying, no one can withstand it.

Faced with Zhou Qing's caution, Lu Yaoyao was full of admiration.

Live and learn!
In this way, the two of them waited patiently for a long time. After making sure that there were no other suspicious people around, they hurriedly followed the footprints on the ground and chased after them.

When we reached halfway up the mountain, the area was already filled with thick, grayish-white fog.

In the mist, strange blue phosphorescent lights flickered from time to time, sometimes gathering and blending, sometimes dispersing and drifting, vaguely outlining various twisted and strange creature shapes, like a group of demons dancing wildly, which was creepy.

Occasionally, a cold wind blew, and the bones on the ground collided with each other, making a terrifying "cracking" sound.

Lu Yaoyao followed Zhou Qing closely, her lips tightly closed, not saying a word, her expression tense and solemn.

Until Zhou Qing suddenly grabbed her, and they both leaned down and stared ahead with vigilance.

There, Li Hong and others were also lying quietly on the ground, not moving at all.

In the hazy fog, you can see the Thunder Sound Golden Toad slowly moving its huge body, which seems a bit sluggish.

The golden bumps on its back were also continuously releasing dazzling arcs of lightning, and its mouth opened and closed, as if it was trying to sense something.

"Why don't you just find a place to lie down? It's so damn slow!" Li Hong became anxious and couldn't help but complain in his heart.

Anyway, you can sell all your treasures for money when the time comes, so why bother about these details?

And Zhou Qing seemed to react.

The Suanni seemed to be a thunder-type monster, and the Thunder Sound Golden Toad also seemed to possess some of the power of thunder and lightning, so it wanted to take this opportunity to try to sense the other party's remains.

There are piles of bones here, and most of them seem to be ordinary animals or low-level monsters. They came here from the unknown, proving once again that the remains of Suanni really exist.

So why did such a powerful monster fall here? No one knows.

In other words, what is it here that attracts it here?
Zhou Qing's eyes became brighter and brighter. It seemed that if he wanted to know the truth, he would have to wait for the full moon night to find out.

Soon, the Thunder Sound Golden Toad staggered to the other side. After waiting for a while, Li Hong and others quietly followed.

Zhou Qing didn't need to explain too much, Lu Yaoyao understood what he meant and cooperated tacitly without moving, just in case there were other people like them in other directions.

However, the two did not wait for the so-called oriole, but waited for the person in the Nascent Soul Realm who returned.

Li Hong's powerful spiritual sense quietly spread out to the surroundings. After a careful investigation, he confirmed that there was no one else around, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.

For some reason, he always felt a little uneasy in his heart tonight, and thought that someone was scheming and trying to reap the benefits.

Now it seems that I was worrying too much.

Watching Li Hong's back disappear into the depths of the thick fog, Lu Yaoyao once again looked at Zhou Qing with admiration.

It was a close call, the other party actually came back to kill them.

Zhou Qing sneered, then continued to chase after Lu Yaoyao, and reminded her to pay attention to the movements around her.

This person is so cautious and careful, he might have quietly placed some warning objects around. If someone accidentally stepped on them, it would be a big trouble.

In fact, Zhou Qing's guess was correct. Not long after, the sharp-eyed Lu Yaoyao discovered several white talismans, which were quietly attached to the dry bones on the ground in different positions.

If the two of them rashly entered this area, it might be triggered and their whereabouts would be exposed.

From this we can see that no one who can enter the Nascent Soul stage is simple.

Lingku Mountain is very large, and the Thunder Sound Golden Toad kept releasing lightning for perception. In the end, everyone could clearly feel that it was becoming more and more tired.

Slowly, the power of thunder and lightning became intermittent, like a candle in the wind, which could go out at any time.

croak——

As the night passed, the Thunder Sound Golden Toad looked at the slowly rising red sun in the east and let out an unwilling roar. Then, its huge body collapsed and its breath stopped.

"Boss, he's dead, finally dead—" A Jindan realm disciple could not hide his excitement.

Li Hong's eyes were also full of excitement, but he did not act impulsively. Instead, he continued to wait patiently.

After all, he has learned from previous experiences. I heard that the elder in the late Nascent Soul stage was seriously injured and has not recovered yet.

This beast is good at showing weakness to the enemy, just like the peeping Tom Zhou Qing who ranks tenth on the must-kill list, it is very cunning.

Especially Senior Brother Song Yuan, the two of them had a certain friendship. In order to pave this road, he had given him countless beauties and countless rare treasures.

He was hoping to become a loyal minister, but who could have expected that in the end, he would be killed by a Jindan realm cultivator.

Years of planning have gone down the drain. Where can you seek justice?

Time passed little by little, and it was still night when the Thunder Sound Golden Toad remained motionless and even began to emit a faint stench of corpse.

Li Hong was overjoyed when he saw this, and he quickly ordered the two Jindan realm disciples beside him, "You two go over and take a look."

The two Jindan realm disciples' expressions suddenly changed, and they looked embarrassed.

"Hurry up!" Li Hong ordered again with a stronger tone.

The two of them reluctantly stood up, swallowed their saliva subconsciously, and carefully moved towards the corpse of the Thunder Sound Golden Toad.

Zhou Qing, who was not far away, shook his head slightly.

It's really a case of being too clever for one's own good. You were told to be cautious, but a Nascent Soul Realm monster that has been dead for less than a day is already emitting a corpse stench. How is this possible?

It is obvious that the other party is pretending to be dead on purpose to lure you into the trap, but you just can't keep your composure at this moment.

A little clever, but not much.

And according to the information fed back by the system, this Thunder Sound Golden Toad should have nearly two days of life left.

"Retreat quickly!" Zhou Qing pulled Lu Yaoyao and retreated quietly.

Lu Yaoyao was puzzled. Since the Thunder Sound Toad was already dead, it should have suddenly rushed out while they were not paying attention. Why did it leave?

But seeing Zhou Qing's solemn expression, she didn't dare to ask any more questions, so she followed Zhou Qing obediently, moving her body bit by bit and slowly retreating.

At this time, the two Jindan realm disciples had gradually approached the huge corpse of Leiyin Golden Toad. One of them gritted his teeth, swung out a sword, and stabbed it hard. Immediately, there was a sound of flesh being pierced.

But the corpse still did not react, as if it were dead.

Seeing this, the other man also stabbed several more times, but when he saw that there was still no movement, his face was full of joy.

Seeing this, Li Hong also breathed a sigh of relief, and then quickly led everyone to approach.

"Be careful with those poison sacs. Don't let me pop them. These are priceless medicinal herbs..."

Li Hong shouted loudly while subconsciously covering his nose with his hand. After tossing and turning for so long, he finally died. Unexpectedly, he got the upper hand in the end.

Suddenly, Li Hong smelled the increasingly strong stench of corpse and came to his senses. His face suddenly changed and he retreated instantly.

The very next moment, the golden lump on the back of the Thunder Sound Golden Toad, which had already died, suddenly emitted a series of dull "puff puff" sounds, followed by streams of dark green poisonous liquid that suddenly and wildly sprayed out in the direction of everyone.

Those Jindan realm disciples who had just approached with excited smiles on their faces did not even have the chance to react before they were instantly enveloped by the highly toxic liquid.

In an instant, shrill screams resounded through the night sky. In just a few breaths, all the Jindan realm disciples were transformed into a pool of foul-smelling pus under the strong corrosion of this highly toxic liquid.

Only some broken clothes and storage bags remained to prove their existence.

Leiyin Golden Toad also suddenly opened his eyes at this moment, with coldness and ruthlessness in his eyes, staring at Li Hong who was fleeing in panic.

The originally lifeless aura suddenly erupted at this moment, and there was no sign of the end of life at all.

"Do you really think that I don't know that you have been monitoring me all this time?" Leiyin Golden Toad spoke in human language, his voice full of sarcasm.

Then he jumped high, and his huge body rushed towards Li Hong at such a fast speed that there was a sound of breaking through the air.

Then it suddenly opened its bloody mouth, and a powerful sonic attack came out of its mouth like a surging wave. Wherever it passed, it seemed that even the air was distorted.

Li Hong, who was fleeing at full speed, was caught off guard and was blown away by the sonic attack.

His face turned pale in an instant, his eyes filled with horror, and he hurriedly tried his best to circulate the spiritual power in his body, trying to resist a little.

A ball of incomparably blazing flames quickly coalesced in front of him, then transformed into a giant, snarling fire snake. It roared and lunged towards the Thunder Sound Golden Toad...
