Bai Xiaochun sat in his courtyard on Fragrant Cloud Peak, looking at the jade pendant he had in his hand. After activating it with some spiritual energy, the pendant began to glow with a gentle green light that surrounded his body.
Next, he performed a spell move with his left hand, causing his wooden sword to appear. It circled in the air and then shot back towards Bai Xiaochun. However, once it hit the green light, it was as if it suddenly flowed into a patch of water, causing it to slow down significantly.
“Really treasure!” he muttered, putting down the wooden sword and grasping the jade pendant in his hand, feeling a little embarrassed.
“Ah alright, no problem. Li Qinghou is Teacher Zhou Xinqi, but he is also my mentor. In fact, given our relationship, I should probably call him Uncle. ” Clearing his throat, Bai Xiaochun put away the jade pendant, then stood up and stretched his body lazily.
After eating more than half of Li Qinghou's chicken, his Eternal Life Technique progressed by leaps and bounds. Now it's over seventy percent complete. Of course, the Spirit Tail Chicken replenished his vital energy, not his spiritual energy. However, even though his cultivation base was still at the fourth level of Qi Condensation, it had made some progress, and was smoother than before.
He buried all the chicken bones in the spirit land, which was now filled with so much spiritual energy that it was almost absurd. As for his Winter Bamboo, it was now over two meters tall, and was no longer pure emerald green; dark dots began to appear inside the green.
The most important of all was the Spirit Tail, which could produce three-colored flames. Bai Xiaochun had gathered them, and now had several hundred. Every time he thought about the three-colored flame that the Spirit Tail could produce, his heart was filled with anticipation.
“I am in no hurry with my cultivation base. As long as I can obtain enough medicinal pills, I can do a threefold increase in spirit on them and advance at flying speed. The most important thing to do is to make progress with my Everlasting Skin! ” Almost as soon as the thought entered his mind, Bai Xiaochun's stomach began to grumble. At first he looked towards Fragrant Cloud Peak's chicken farm, but then he turned to Violet Cauldron Peak.
“The Oldest Brother is on Violet Cauldron Peak, I wonder how he has been lately.” Thinking of all the things that had happened in the Oven, he dashed out of his courtyard, down the mountain, and towards Violet Cauldron Peak.
Of the three mountains on the southern edge of the Spirit Stream Sect, Green Crest Peak focused on the sword, Fragrant Cloud Peak concentrated on spirit medicine, and, and the Violet Cauldron Peak excelled in magical techniques and spirit enhancement. Furthermore, the most fundamental technique of the southern edge, the Violet Qi Cauldron Control Art, actually came from the Violet Cauldron Peak.
Bai Xiaochun walked along the road towards Violet Cauldron Peak, and by the time he got there, the night had already arrived. He looked towards the mountain, which was surrounded by clouds and mist. Deep in the air, he could barely see the tiny shadows hovering in the prismatic beam of light. He's sighing.
“I wonder when I can get some sort of flying treasure, and then do something like that. Then my world will be completely open, and I will truly be on the road to live forever. ” Blazing eyes full of anticipation, he began to climb Violet Cauldron Peak.
Although he was not a Violet Cauldron Peak disciple, as an Outer Sect disciple, he was qualified to go to one of the various mountains. As he walked, he asked some people about where Zhang Dahai lived. Thanks to her charming demeanor, she almost immediately got an answer, and quickly rushed in the direction indicated.
Big Fatty Zhang's residence was located in a different part of the mountain compared to Bai Xiaochun's location on Fragrant Cloud Peak. It was on the sunny side of the mountain, where there was an even stronger spiritual energy. There were not many residences here; they were scattered like stars in the night sky, seemingly in a certain pattern.
Although it was night time, and the light was not very clear, it was still possible to see the swirling mist and abundant spirit herbs, all of which gave the place a heavenly feeling.
Taking a deep breath, Bai Xiaochun looked around enviously. “The Eldest Brother really has a connection in the sect. I can't believe he got a place like this. It's much better than me. ”
It only took a bit of searching to find Big Fatty Zhang's residence. The courtyard was filled with weeds, as if no one had cared for it for centuries. Bai Xiaochun gaped in shock, then knocked on the main gate. However, there is no response.
“Am I in the wrong place?” he thinks. Even as he stood there, startled, the front door of the building inside the courtyard slowly opened, and a skinny figure appeared, holding a flying sword in his right hand. A dim silver light flickered around his left hand as he trudged along. Look tired, then lethargicly say, “Who is this ?!”
Even when those words came out of the man's mouth, he suddenly saw Bai Xiaochun standing there across the courtyard, and a tremor ran its course. An expression of excitement appeared on his face, almost as if he had just seen a blood relative. Suddenly, he flew forward, pushed the main gate open, and then stood there looking at Bai Xiaochun. Then he laughed out loud and said, “Ninth Adik!”
“Who are you?!” Bai Xiaochun replied, retreating, his eyes widened. Although this person seemed familiar for some reason, Bai Xiaochun was unable to identify him at all.
He has average features, and is very thin. Although he could not be described as just skin and bone, he had almost reached that point. His eyes shone with strength, yet sunk inward. From the ripples of his cultivation base, he seemed to be in the great circle of the fourth level of Qi Condensation.
When the skinny young man saw Bai Xiaochun's expression, he looked like he was about to start crying.
“Ninth Fatty, it's me, Big Fatty!” she said. With a face full of deep sadness, he continued by saying, “Ninth Fatty, you have no idea how much I have suffered over the past year. My master is very demanding! Once I got here, he told me that he didn't like being fat, and that I had to starve for half a year!
“Half year, Ninth Fatty! Do you know what I look like after half a year? It took me a long time just to regain this much weight. ” This skinny youth is none other than Big Fat Zhang, who is now standing there crying.
Bai Xiaochun watched him closely. After hearing his story, and making sure that he was really his Eldest Brother, Bai Xiaochun's jaw dropped. The Eldest Brother that he remembered, and this person standing in front of him, looked like two very different people.
“Is there a grudge between you and your Master?” Bai Xiaochun asked sympathetically.
As Bai Xiaochun listened to the bitter story, he suddenly realized that his decision to start stealing chickens was definitely the right thing to do. He looked at Big Fatty Zhang's thin body, then sighed and patted his thin shoulder.
“Since you are in trouble, Big Brother, then Big Brother will naturally help. Just wait here until the time it takes for the incense to burn. I'll be right back.” Big Fatty Zhang gaped in shock as Bai Xiaochun turned around and left the courtyard.
On his way up the mountain, Bai Xiaochun had recorded where the Violet Cauldron Peak Spirit Tail Chicken farm was located. Taking advantage of the darkness of the night, he suddenly disappeared.
Big Fatty Zhang had no idea what was going on, nor any clues as to what Bai Xiaochun might have done. He waited there at the front gate for the time it took for the incense to burn, after which Bai Xiaochun returned, carrying the Spirit Tail Chicken in each hand.
When Big Fatty Zhang saw the Spirit Tail Chicken, his eyes widened. Before he could say anything, Bai Xiaochun urged him into the courtyard. Ignoring the Big Fat Zhang, Bai Xiaochun expertly took out a frying pan, boiled water, plucked the chicken and threw it inside. With that, he cleared his sleeves, raised his chin and looked at Big Fat Zhang.
Big Fatty Zhang was panting heavily, and his eyes widened. He pointed at the chicken in the pan, and then returned to Bai Xiaochun, and an expression of disbelief crept on his face.
“K-you.. don't tell me that you are Devil Chicken Thief from Fragrant Cloud Peak!?!?”
Bai Xiaochun chuckled. Then, as if he was well versed with the process, put his hands on the frying pan and sent out spiritual energy to ensure that the chicken meat was perfectly tender. Soon, a fragrant aroma wafted. Bai Xiaochun reached out, pulled the chicken leg, and then handed it to Big Fat Zhang.
“Eat!” he said, mimicking the way Zhang Fat handed back the magic mushroom when he first joined the Oven.
Big Fatty Zhang swallowed a few times as he stared at the chicken leg. Finally, he grabbed it and ate it. From then on, Bai Xiaochun did not need to say anything. Big Fatty Zhang flew towards the pan and almost buried his face inside. The two chickens were quickly eaten all the way to the bone, except he could not stop there; crackling sounds could be heard as he chewed on them as well.
Finally, he punched her in the stomach, and lay down, looking almost drunk with satisfaction. Then he and Bai Xiaochun exchanged glances and started laughing.
“Ninth Fatty, you are amazing,” he said, looking very proud. “You really noticed in the Oven. I would have never imagined that the famous demon chicken thief Fragrant Cloud Peak would be my brother. ”
“Cultivation is basically a Heaven-defying thing. As a cultivator, it was natural to compete with Heaven, and fight with men. You have to rely on yourself! What are some Spirit Tail Chickens taken into account for? ” Bai Xiaochun waved his hand, but could not hide how happy he was with himself. He had kept his identity secret for too long; being able to share it, and then seeing the look on Big Fatty Zhang's face, made him feel extraordinary.
“What is really unfortunate is that I have eaten so many Spirit Tail Chickens at the Peak of Fragrant Clouds that only chickens are left. It doesn't feel good, otherwise I'll invite you to stay with me there, and we can eat as much every day. You will definitely get all your weight back. ” Bai Xiaochun sighed.
When Big Fatty Zhang heard that, his eyes shone, and he immediately crawled to his feet.
“Violet Cauldron Peak also has it. The western, southern, and northern sides of the mountain range were all functioning. They were guarded by two shifts a day, each shift manned by seven disciples! ” Big Fatty Zhang went on to explain in more detail. When he finished, he found Bai Xiaochun staring at him with a strange expression. Big Fatty Zhang cleared his throat and said, “After I heard about the Devil Thieving Chicken, I decided to try doing the same with him. Unfortunately, the chicken was too hard to steal. As soon as you get close, they start making a fuss. Not only did I not even nearly steal a chicken, I was almost caught. ” Big Fatty Zhang looks a bit embarrassed by everything.
Bai Xiaochun laughed, then approached Big Fat Zhang and started whispering something. Gradually, Big Fatty Zhang's eyes began to shine brighter and brighter, and he was even panting. Then Bai Xiaochun took out his bamboo crickets, and after a while a wide smile covered their faces and they started laughing.
Immediately, laughter sounded from within the courtyard, and it sounded terrifying.
From that day on, Bai Xiaochun started visiting Big Fatty Zhang more often, and gradually, the Chicken Tail Spirit from the Violet Cauldron Peak started to disappear….
Every night, two great cock bandits attacked. One steals, the other stands guard. Immediately, the Violet Cauldron Peak disciples became in an uproar, and everyone discussed the matter.
“Do you hear? The Chicken-Thieving Fiend from Fragrant Cloud Peak had set its sights on Violet Cauldron Peak! ”
“I really saw it happen! The Chicken-Thieving Fiend was not a human, it was a team of two people! ”
When the news returned to Fragrant Cloud Peak, the Outer Sect disciples there all took a deep breath and looked sympathetically towards the Violet Cauldron Peak.
“So Devil Chicken Thieves have learned to be balanced. He ended up not stealing the chicken from our Fragrant Cloud Peak…. ”
