Why do you always want to be my Taoist partner?

"Go to sleep."

Chapter 28: Chapter Jealousy

When Yue Ji woke up, there seemed to be a faint taste of blood in her mouth.

Jiang Li was wearing a white shirt before, and the blood that had seeped out had dyed the shirt red. He was staring at Yue Ji's face in a daze at the moment. When he saw Yue Ji open her eyes, he laughed again.

"Why are you suddenly angry?" Jiang Li asked softly.

"I should have stayed away from you, a bastard. Maybe I could have lived two more years instead of being irritated by you all the time!"

"It's not the first day you've known me..." Jiang Li loosened his arm around Yue Ji's shoulders, "I did make a serious plan before. One day when I get bored of staying in Xuantian Dao Ji Sect, I will go down the mountain to become a casual cultivator and see the world, but I'm not bored yet."

"That's just a matter of time." Yue Ji said gritting her teeth.

"But that's still a long time away. After all, there are still people I can't bear to leave, such as Jiang Jinbie and you. Maybe by then... you will also be bored of staying in Xuantian Dao Ji Sect, so why don't we go sightseeing together?" Jiang Li said this very seriously. Yue Ji's previously fierce eyes gradually softened. After a long while, she reached out and patted Jiang Li on the shoulder.

"Why are other names listed before mine, Jin?"

"..." Jiang Li was speechless.

Yue Ji slowly sat up from the bed, her hair fell to her shoulders, Jiang Li also stood up and began to braid her hair again. He was the one who braided the hair of the two little girls before. After all, when traveling in the world, it is always good to have many skills.

"In fact, it's lonely everywhere, so it's the same everywhere. Maybe I'll be even lonelier after going down the mountain." Jiang Li sighed softly and was about to say something else when Yue Ji grabbed his head and buried his face in her chest.

Jiang Li was stunned for a moment. Yue Ji held him tightly with her hand and sneered, "Are you still lonely now?"

His cheek was suddenly buried in this warm and soft jade, making it difficult for him to breathe.

"Sister Yueji is very open-minded. I feel less lonely all of a sudden."

Yue Ji then let go of her hand. Jiang Li looked up at her eyes in confusion, but Yue Ji looked at him without any concealment, without blushing at all. Gradually, it was Jiang Li who avoided her gaze. "When you said I might leave just now, my hands trembled. It's not that I was planning to leave, but I subconsciously thought of this possibility in my head, so I was a little dazed."

"Promise." Yue Ji said lightly.

"No, that won't work. I never swear." Jiang Li answered without hesitation. In his previous life, he swore that he would never cheat again, and then he was stabbed to death.

Post-traumatic stress has begun.

"Asshole." Yue Ji's white and tender calf kicked his waist, but he caught it firmly in his palm.

Today Yue Ji also changed a foot chain and tied it around her slender ankle. Jiang Li's fingertips pinched her soft and boneless small beautiful feet again. Yue Ji's cheeks flushed slightly. "Do you like to bully me like this?"

"It's mainly because Sister Yueji's slender feet are so beautiful that people can't let go of them."

"shameless."

Even though she said this, when Jiang Li's fingertips gently stroked her snow-white and tender instep and gently fiddled with her pearly pink and round toes, Yue Ji did not resist at all. She just gently grasped the bed sheet with her fingers, that was all.

"Then you must have seen a lot of girls. Am I the prettiest among all the girls you have seen?"

"How should I know? I only like to bully you like this. I have no interest in changing to others." Jiang Li looked up at Yue Ji's eyes and answered softly.

Yue Ji's cheeks finally flushed slightly. She wanted to lift her calves and pull her feet back, but Jiang Li grabbed her ankles and refused to let go.

"Haven't you bullied me enough yet?"

"Touch it for a little while longer."

"Since you like it so much...why not put it in your mouth so you can lick it properly?"

"Then there's no need to reward me like this." Jiang Li answered dimly. Yue Ji's fingers gripping the bed sheet tightened a little. Her body became a little numb, and she felt an itch as if she was bitten by ants flowing from her skin to her blood vessels.

"If I stepped on you... would you like it even more?" Yue Ji's voice was already slightly panting, but Jiang Li gently pinched her feet at the last moment, then withdrew his hand and replied with a smile, "Okay, I'm satisfied."

"Go to hell!" Yue Ji raised her little foot and kicked him in the chest. Jiang Li did not dodge. After being kicked, he lay down on the bed and started rolling around. "I'm going to die, I'm going to die."

...This guy always has this sudden childishness.

..........................................

"I came to you today for another matter." Yue Ji leaned lazily on the bed and kicked Jiang Li again. Jiang Li stopped rolling around, sat up and looked at her, "What's wrong?"

"The elders of the sect sent a bunch of medicinal herbs to Qiyue Pavilion, hoping to ask Qiyue Pavilion to refine a Qianlong Pill. However, among the alchemists employed by Qiyue Pavilion, Elder Qin has been concentrating on retreat recently and has no time. The other alchemists dare not refine this pill for fear of ruining it, so I came to ask you."

Qianlong Pill is a low-grade elixir, which is given to cultivators in the Nascent Soul stage. After taking it, it can increase the strength of the soul and spirit, and also increase the probability of the Nascent Soul stage to pass the minor tribulation in the future.

Alchemists themselves are divided into four grades: heaven, earth, black and yellow. Below the yellow grade is one to nine grades. In fact, one to nine grades are not even considered to be mainstream and can only refine pills such as nourishing pills and rejuvenation pills.

In order to have the confidence to refine earth-grade elixirs, one must be an earth-grade alchemist or above to have a chance.

"It works."

He said it was possible, so Yue Ji took out all the materials. Soon the room was filled with the aroma of herbs. Jiang Li sighed, "What a generous move. They even used a thousand-year-old dragon pill."

"How sure are you?"

“Once I choose to do something, I am 100% sure of it.”

Jiang Li picked up all the materials, and then began to draw the formation with spiritual energy. He also took out two spirit stones and borrowed some of the spiritual energy from the spirit stones. After drawing the formation for alchemy, he threw all the materials in.

"Just wait for an hour and give me ten spirit stones."

Yue Ji obediently took out ten spirit stones, and Jiang Li placed all those spirit stones at the center of the formation on the table. The spirit stones would provide spiritual energy for alchemy, but Yue Ji's eyes widened at this moment.

Although she always saw all kinds of strange and jaw-dropping things on Jiang Li, this time's alchemy formation was indeed the first time she had seen it.

"you……"

"This is what my junior sister from the Medicine Mountain has been studying for a few months. As long as you know in advance how to use the spiritual energy and how to control the temperature, and set all the steps of alchemy, it will be easy to make the pill."

"This formation..."

"You want it?" Jiang Li glanced at her. "Ordinary people can't draw it. To draw this formation diagram, the attainment of formation must be above the top level. The attainment of alchemy only requires a heavenly alchemist. But this formation diagram is a one-time item. It cannot be used after this time."

Yueji inexplicably felt a sense of luck in her heart.

Obviously, she had worked very hard to run the Qiyue Pavilion over the years and had turned it into the number one chamber of commerce in Xuantian Dao Ji Zong. Even other sects had business dealings with the Qiyue Pavilion. Her status in Xuantian Dao Ji Zong was already very high, and she could even be on par with some mountain sect masters. However, every time she was with Jiang Li, she always felt like she had to look up to him.

She hated this feeling. Even though she knew Jiang Li had also noticed this and rarely showed his true colors in front of her, she still couldn't help feeling a little disappointed at this moment.

"It would be nice if you were a practicing idiot."

"Then am I still so important in your heart?"

"Do you think it's unimportant?" Yue Ji stared into his eyes seriously, "Isn't it because you deceived me from childhood to adulthood that...it turned out like this?"

Tsukhime gritted her teeth a little.

She was often bullied by Jiang Li when she was a child. Jiang Li's favorite thing to do was to make fun of her. It seemed that he was particularly happy when he could make her cry. This made Yue Ji's personality become particularly strong. However, Jiang Li treated Jiang Jinbie differently. Jiang Jinbie would just cry when she was bullied and never fought against Jiang Li, so Jiang Li seldom bullied her.

Yue Ji suddenly looked unhappy, "Do you think I stayed with you because I coveted you and you were awesome?"

"I never thought of it that way."

"You do!" Yue Ji pointed her finger at Jiang Li's face. "When you were humiliated and rejected by Mu Bingning, everyone thought you were devastated and had given up on cultivation. Have I neglected you in the past four years?"

"You asked me for things, took advantage of me, and shamelessly asked me to help you pursue your junior sister. Which request did I really refuse you?"

Jiang Li knew that he couldn't explain it now. In fact, he really didn't mean it that way, but for some reason, Yue Ji seemed to be unexpectedly sensitive today. In many cases, actions are worse than words, so he moved closer and hugged Yue Ji in his arms, "I know you treat me well, how could I have such thoughts?"

"You just have it... You just have it..." Yue Ji began to repeat it over and over again. Jiang Li bit her ear gently, "Really not. If you have such thoughts, I will be struck by lightning next time I fly my sword."

"You just said you wouldn't swear..."

Being held like this by him, Yue Ji's emotions gradually stabilized. She turned her face away so that Jiang Li would not see her suddenly red eyes, and then finally asked the most important question.

"Why are you so...chasing Bai Sheng?"

"uh-huh?"

"You obviously never put so much effort into pursuing each girl before!"

"Really?" Jiang Li looked at Yue Ji innocently.

"You think I don't know, right?" Yue Ji said with increasing grievance. "You never pursued a girl for more than seven days before, not to mention running to the peach blossom forest to paint for a whole day. With your lazy personality... Is it because you think she's innocent that you should give up? It seems like it wouldn't be bad to be with her for the rest of your life? That's why you went to all this trouble."

"I was wondering why you're acting so weird today..."

Jiang Li grumbled, then reached out and poked her face, "It turns out you are just jealous."

"I'm not jealous! Who would be jealous of you? Even dogs wouldn't be jealous!"

"Okay, okay." Jiang Li continued to hold Yue Ji in his arms, "Then do you want to listen to my explanation?"

After a second or two, Yue Ji pursed her lips slightly, "Who knows if you will lie to me again?"

"If you don't believe me, I won't explain it."

Yue Ji turned her head back with resentment, looking at him aggrievedly, "I didn't say I didn't believe it..."

Jiang Li was amused by her and reached out his hand to scratch her nose.

It turns out that when a bad woman is jealous, her IQ will be taken over by illness one day.

Chapter 29: Chapter Asking the Sword

"Bai Sheng's personality is too gentle, so it takes more effort to pursue her."

Jiang Li explained patiently, but Yue Ji didn't buy it. "It's as if you've never chased after a girl like her before."

"Every girl is different. Her gentle personality hides a lot of stubbornness. It's easy to deceive her, but if you use a combination of tricks, it won't be easy to withdraw. I have to maintain my gentle and amiable personality and not let her shed too many tears, so it's better to spend more time."

"Why can you be so righteous when you say these words?"

"Didn't you ask me to explain?" Jiang Li looked so innocent.

Yue Ji murmured softly, "How long will it take?"

"Seven days."

"and then?"

“Then start chasing the next one!”

"You'd better die."

Yue Ji hummed coldly, raised her slender legs, and touched Jiang Li's chest with her white toes, "I'm hungry, go cook for me."

"Good good."

"I want to eat rabbit."

"The rabbit was given away."

"Who?"

Jiang Li smiled but didn't answer. Yue Ji moved her raised calf a little higher, with her toes resting on Jiang Li's chin. She glared at Jiang Li dimly, "Asshole."

Yueji never ate rabbit meat before.

Jiang Li first brought up a plate of meat he said was spicy fried chicken, and Yue Ji happily finished the whole plate with him. Then Jiang Li brought up two spicy rabbit heads.

Yue Ji said she would not eat anything until the bastard Jiang Li told her that what she had just eaten was the body of the rabbit, so she might as well eat the head now, and it could still be reunited in her stomach.

Then, the little Yue Ji was coaxed by him to eat the spicy rabbit head while crying. The more she ate, the more delicious it became. Whenever she saw it, she would drool instead of crying.

Jiang Li stood up and went to prepare some ingredients for the hot pot.

When he went out, Yue Ji opened his cabinet and boredly flipped through Jiang Li's precious little notebook. That little notebook recorded every one of his strategy targets. Yue Ji had sneaked into his room a long time ago to read it.

At present, more than ninety pages have been torn off the small notebook, but there are still more than thirty pages left. Yue Ji flipped through it for a long time out of boredom. When Jiang Li came back, he was holding a big pot. The water in the pot was still bubbling, and peppers and various spices were boiling in it. Jiang Li put the pot on the table, and then he took out various ingredients, cabbage, potatoes, sweet potato noodles, winter melon, mushrooms, beef, mutton, tripe, shrimp balls, and hand-made beef balls.

Because it is rather troublesome to prepare, Jiang Li usually does not invite other girls to this dinner. This is a dinner that only he, Yue Ji, or Jiang Jinbie will have together.

He and Tsukishime were best friends, at least on the surface.

Yue Ji likes spicy food, so she picked up her chopsticks and started to eat the beef. After she finished the meat on the plate, she patted the table and asked Jiang Li to bring another plate. Jiang Li helplessly slurped sweet potato noodles on the side and continued to serve her meat with resentment.

After finishing the hotpot, the pill that Yue Ji wanted was also refined.

The fragrance of the elixir filled the entire room. Yue Ji carefully put the elixir away, but she hummed, "Do you want more reward?"

"No need." Jiang Li shook his head.

"I gave you that sword last time. If you give it away again, I will bite you to death."
