Chapter 427: Too Prodigal
Chapter 427: Too Prodigal
Yu Qing Qian noticed that the others had understood, so she said no more. These were all smart people, but they were just misled by the previous tests.
“Senior Brothers can cooperate slowly, I’ll leave first.”
Third Sword and the others didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. So it turned out that she only just provided the idea, and had no intention of joining them—but there was nothing they could do either. What could they do when she had that strength.
“Thank you Junior Sister for the reminder, you can pass first.”
Yu Qing Qian nodded, then stirred the several demonic plants with her words again. The wasp honey was the best bait. The several demonic plants looked as if they were about to go crazy, and their branches and leaves kept spreading forward, entangling the mud monsters one after another tightly.
Soon, Yu Qing Qian arrived at the wooden house on the other side of the wetland without even acting herself and became the first person to pass the fourth level.
Of course, she wasn’t just playing around with the demonic plants. When she needed to be strict, she’d give strict lessons, but when she needed to pamper, she wouldn’t feel heartache.
Taking out the wasp hive from the spatial storage accessory, she tossed a third of it directly to the demonic plants. The wooden stake demonic plant performed the best earlier, so it also got the most honey.
“ZHI ZHI!!” The several demonic plants screamed excitedly, scrambling to swallow and absorb the honey they were given, as if they hadn’t eaten for centuries.
The Nine-Coloured Magic Lotus in Yu Qing Qian’s body also expressed a desire for it. Yu Qing Qian always doted on it more, and divided half of the remaining honey into the spiritual plant space.
The Nine-Coloured Magic Lotus in the spiritual plant space expressed its joy, then collected all the honey and placed it at the roots for continuous absorption.
Yu Qing Qian’s actions weren’t concealed in any way, leaving the pupils outside the Holy Land and the superiors inside the Holy Land extremely speechless, shouting ‘prodigal’ relentlessly.
Outside the Holy Land, the pupils of the Seven Peaks felt a sense of helplessness when they saw Yu Qing Qian arriving at the end of the wooden house so leisurely—why was she this relaxed?
Then they saw Yu Qing Qian taking out the hives collected in the flowerbed and feeding them to the demonic plants. They all couldn’t resist widening their eyes, wishing they were one of those demonic plants, begging to be fed.
“What’s the Great Demon King doing! She’s actually feeding such a valuable spiritual item like the wasp honey to the demonic plants, does she know how wasteful this behaviour is.” A pupil said with heartache.
“Yeah! Drinking honey regularly can improve one’s cultivation base and prolong life, the Great Demon King is simply wasting heavenly resources.”
“Didn’t the Great Demon King really like spiritual jade before? If she sold this honey, she’d definitely make a lot of spiritual jade.”
“Does she not know the value of wasp honey? Otherwise, she wouldn’t waste it like this right.”
“I was even thinking about buying some honey after the Red Peak’s challenge is over, but who knew that she’d pretty much waste all that honey away.”
All the pupils present had seen how many hives Yu Qing Qian had collected, yet now, in only moments, she had prodigally given out two thirds. She might not feel heartache, but they all felt heartache.
“The Great Demon King is just a prodigal, no amount of money is enough for her to spend!”
“Yeah! So prodigal that I can’t even keep watching…”
Did Yu Qing Qian really not know the value of these wasp honey?
Of course she knew, but she really didn’t feel heartache.
Before, collecting spiritual jade was to nourish the small pagoda, so that the demonic plants could grow better in the small pagoda, and also to gradually restore the spirituality of the small pagoda.
Since it was all for the good of the demonic plants, why bother exchanging honey for spiritual jade. Moreover, after absorbing the honey, she clearly felt that the aura fluctuations of the demonic plants were stronger.
These demonic plants were the first real batch of demonic plant partners that Yu Qing Qian had formed a contract with, so she naturally wouldn’t treat them badly, and even had some special emotional investment in them.
Random Note: Omg, I was messaging my Chinese friends on a group chat just yesterday in Chinese. Convo began with someone asking what we’re gonna do tomorrow (as in, today) for the holiday and I asked ‘what holiday’? They said it’s the seventh day of the seventh month and I immediately knew it was the Qixi Festival they were talking about (coincidentally I mentioned this in the PMIW update 2 weeks ago hahaha. New updates tomorrow, promise! Anyways, happy Qixi Festival! Obviously the 7th day and 7th month refers to the Lunar calendar. FYI, the Qixi Festival celebrates the one day of the year the separated lovers, Niu Lang and Zhi Nu can meet, so it’s like a Valentine’s Day, almost). Then the convo continued about what plans we can make tomorrow and I jokingly said, in Chinese, ‘help me find a niulang tomorrow’ (明天帮我找个牛郎).
GUYS, DO NOT SAY THAT!!! HAHAHAHAHA. One of my friends on the group chat said ‘which kind of Niu Lang’ to my comment, and then another one said ‘you can’t say that casually’ and I immediately knew this word must have another meaning, so I said, ‘oh. Ok. I don’t know what other meaning it has 😂’. I said it with the intent of it meaning ‘find me a boyfriend’, and I’m sure they understood that part. BUT I DID NOT KNOW IT WAS A DOUBLE ENTENDRE 哈哈哈哈哈哈哈. 🤣 Its other meaning is actually… ahem, a male prostituteahem… 😂😂😂 Luckily I said it in this group chat HAHAHA. Honestly if I had known I’d probably still say the same thing to them, but with 😉😉 hahahahahaha I said it without knowing 哈哈哈哈哈哈哈 These are the times where it’s obvious I’m an ABC hahahaha
