Junior sister, I really need to control you

The ability to tame the true fire of the sun is actually beneficial to the Golden Crow in every way.

Putting everything else aside, the most difficult and dangerous part of the Golden Crow's ascension to immortality is that the True Fire of the Sun is too violent. If it cannot be controlled during the breakthrough, it will immediately burn itself to ashes.

But now the true fire of the sun within her body is much warmer than before, and for her, this most dangerous part is already halfway over.

As a pure-blooded Golden Crow, she has a natural affinity with the True Fire of the Sun, so she doesn't really need to fear this step. However, if it were a mixed-blooded Golden Crow, it would be a matter of life and death for her at this stage.

This advantage alone is an irresistible temptation for those mixed-blood Golden Crows who face extreme danger when breaking through to immortality.

Chi Ling could easily imagine how crazy those mixed-blood Golden Crows in her clan, who had long remained at the peak of the Demon King level, would be about this, and how much they would be willing to pay.

Moreover, besides this, the quality of the true fire of the sun within her body has also improved several levels due to these exchanges of essence.

Although if she were to cultivate into a demon immortal, this benefit wouldn't be much of a deal now.

After getting to know him, neither she nor Su Sheng had any doubts about whether Li Yin could become an immortal after his birthday.

It's unimaginable how much benefit his essence would bring to the Golden Crow once he becomes an immortal.

Therefore, a different thought arose in her mind—

Although the Golden Crow Clan and the Human Clan do not have a good relationship, it is all about competing interests, and there is no blood feud between the two races.

Moreover, there are also demon immortals of other races in the Golden Crow Demon Court, so they are not very resistant to other races.

Therefore, it might not be impossible to bring Li Yinsheng into the Golden Crow clan...

Although she knew that this idea was extremely difficult, she was unwilling to give up easily.

Chapter 211 Mutual Abduction

Inside Fanghua Pavilion.

Li Yinsheng pushed open the door and entered.

As before, Chi Ling had applied her makeup in advance.

The only difference is that this time her makeup seems to have lost some of its aloofness and gained a touch of softness.

She leaned against the chaise lounge, her eyes turning to Li Yinsheng, a touch of deliberately drawn blush at the corner of her eye.

"You've arrived," she said calmly. "You've refined my essence several times already. What's the Golden Crow phantom like now?"

“It’s much more solid than before,” Li Yinsheng said with a smile.

As he spoke, he simply unleashed a golden crow phantom, only slightly taller than himself, which enveloped his entire body.

The illusory figure had solidified to about 60-70% solidity by this point. Li Yinsheng stood within it, his figure somewhat indistinguishable, as if he had truly transformed into a golden crow.

However, Li Yinsheng himself knew very well that he was merely an illusion.

Even if the golden crow phantom were to solidify, it would still be far from being able to truly transform into a golden crow.

Upon seeing the phantom of the golden crow, Chi Ling's eyes widened slightly, a hint of crimson creeping up her ears, which she immediately suppressed.

"Hmm, after two or three more exchanges, you should be able to solidify the illusory image," said Chi Ling.

Hearing her say that, Li Yinsheng was not happy; on the contrary, he felt somewhat dissatisfied.

"Two or three more times, that'll be two or three months. It's not that we can't wait, but it's a bit slow..."

Chi Ling's eyes lit up, and she sat up from the chaise longue: "You want to cultivate together?"

“No, I don’t want to make that decision right now,” Li Yinsheng shook his head.

Chiling was clearly disappointed.

“However, I do have a method that can both accelerate the refining of Miss Chiling’s essence and greatly benefit her cultivation,” Li Yinsheng said with a smile.

Chi Ling's eyes brightened again, and she immediately asked, "What method?"

"Sang Ruo, it's your turn to come out," Li Yinsheng said with a smile.

A streak of red light flew out from his body, landing in front of him and transforming into Sang Ruo, who was dressed in a red dress and stood gracefully.

Although he still didn't have a way to disguise himself as a person, Sang Ruo, as the spiritual plant he had inspired, could still be carried with him.

Upon seeing a tall, voluptuous woman in red suddenly appear beside Li Yinsheng, Chi Ling subconsciously frowned.

She rose from the chaise lounge and unconsciously scrutinized Sang Ruo with a critical gaze.

But within moments, she realized the problem.

"No, this aura of yours... this aura is from the Fusang Branch!" For the first time, Chi Ling's usually calm and beautiful face showed a look of shock.

She suddenly looked at Li Yinsheng, her eyes wide: "You turned the hibiscus branch into a human?!"

"You can transform the hibiscus branch into human form!" Su Sheng appeared out of thin air from the corner and said.

"Fellow Daoist Su has finally shown himself," Li Yinsheng said with a smile.

"So you really did sense my presence all along..." Su Sheng shook her head and said, "But that's not important now. What's important is how you made the Fusang branch transform into a human?"

“My cultivation technique has some unique features, and it can enlighten spiritual plants,” Li Yinsheng said.

"A cultivation technique that can transform spiritual plants?" Su Sheng was taken aback. "Why have I never heard of such a wondrous technique in the Hundred Thousand Mountains?"

Li Yinsheng smiled but remained silent.

This cultivation technique wasn't originally from the Ten Thousand Mountains, so it's normal that Su Sheng hadn't heard of it.

However, judging from her appearance, it seems that the effects of the Six-fold Transformation of the Spirit Plant are even rarer than he had imagined, otherwise she would not have lost her composure like this.

"Sang Ruo, let Miss Chi Ling experience it," Li Yinsheng said with a smile.

"Yes, Master."

Sang Ruo nodded, and in a flash, transformed into a small hibiscus tree slightly shorter than the room.

A warm, red light enveloped the surroundings as if it were a tangible substance. Chi Ling's body trembled slightly, and then she looked at Li Yinsheng with some surprise and doubt.

"Why do I feel like cultivation is becoming... easier?" she asked incredulously.

"This is one of Sang Ruo's innate divine abilities. The Fusang Branch greatly enhances the Golden Crow's cultivation when she actively activates the divine ability," Li Yinsheng said with a smile.

Chi Ling's eyes shone with undisguised excitement.

"Give me your essence, I want to see if it's useful for refining your essence."

……

Nearly half a day later.

After exchanging their essences, Chi Ling's face was pale, but her cheeks were flushed. She sat cross-legged under the small hibiscus tree.

However, after only two or three hours, her complexion had become much rosier.

"The speed of refining essence has increased at least tenfold!" She looked at Li Yinsheng, her pretty face full of excitement. "At this rate, I can refine all the essence in three days!"

Seeing her excited expression, Li Yinsheng was secretly delighted.

Now that she's taken the bait, it shouldn't be too difficult to bring her home to be my junior sister's weapon-refining teacher.

But before he could say anything, Chi Ling's next words made his eyelids twitch.

“We can cultivate together under this little hibiscus tree in the future; the effect will definitely be much better,” Chi Ling said without hesitation.

Li Yinsheng's eyes widened.

Su Sheng, who was drinking tea, paused, then looked thoughtfully at Chi Ling's lower back.

That's strange. There's no fox tail, so how could someone say something that would make even a fox spirit blush?

The little hibiscus tree trembled slightly, transforming back into Sang Ruo, its face also filled with surprise.

"Miss Chiling, the dual cultivation you mentioned, you wouldn't mean with my master..."

She looked at Chiling with disbelief, as if questioning whether the common sense she had been given was correct.

Or is it because you never treated me like a person at all, and only saw me as a tree?

"Ahem, ahem, let's discuss this matter at length, let's discuss it at length," Li Yinsheng said hurriedly.

“Miss Chiling, the problem right now is that I also need Sang Ruo’s assistance in cultivation, so if you want to use Sang Ruo to refine your essence, you can only do so with me.”

Chiling blinked.

Su Sheng turned over the teacup, raised an eyebrow, and felt that something seemed amiss.

"Ahem, so if Miss Chiling doesn't mind, you can stay at my residence for a while," Li Yinsheng said.

Chi Ling nodded almost without hesitation: "Then let's go."

"Wait, wait, wait," Su Sheng quickly grabbed her, "If you live with this young man Li, what about me?"

She wasn't asking where she lived, but rather, "You've run off with someone else, how am I supposed to protect you now?"

“Fellow Daoist Su can naturally stay here with Miss Chiling as well. Although my residence is not large, it has more than enough elegant guest rooms,” Li Yinsheng said with a smile.

Su Sheng put one hand on Liu's waist and looked at Li Yinsheng with a strange expression, her eyes changing repeatedly.

"I see, I see..." A knowing yet meaningful smile appeared on her lips. "I thought Young Master Li was a gentleman who wouldn't easily engage in casual relationships..."

She was already very charming, and her smile at this moment was even more alluring and seductive. Any man who saw her would be irresistibly aroused.

But now Li Yinsheng only felt that the smile on her charming face was particularly irritating.

His fists were itching to punch it.

Taking a light breath and ignoring Su Sheng, Li Yinsheng looked at Chi Ling.

"Furthermore, if we are to live in the same courtyard and spend every day together, there are some things I need to tell Miss Chiling."

He said with a sincere expression, "I have long known that Miss Chiling and Fellow Daoist Su are not from this world, but came from the Hundred Thousand Mountains."

"I suppose you two have also realized that I am also from the Ten Thousand Mountains."

"The reason we didn't make it clear before was mainly because we were in unfamiliar territory and it was inevitable that we would be wary, especially since you two are from the demon race."

"However, after spending several months together, I feel that although Miss Chiling is a Golden Crow, she is a trustworthy woman. Therefore, after careful consideration, I still feel that we should be completely honest with each other..."

As he spoke, Li Yinsheng took Chiling's hand, his expression and tone becoming increasingly sincere.

When Li Yinsheng took her hand, Chi Ling's ear tips felt slightly warm.

Fortunately, her face and ears were flushed, so it wouldn't be noticeable.
