Chapter 109 – Qin Yang: I Want to Eat Stir-Fried Fox Meat Tonight!

“Senior Brother, it’s getting late. I won’t disturb you any further.”

“Mhm.”

After exchanging brief pleasantries with Qin Yang in the alley, Li Zixuan parted ways with him, each returning to their own daily routines.

Qin Yang continued on to the market.

As evening approached.

The market remained bustling, with constant shouts and calls filling the air, the sound of chopping bones on cutting boards, and the scent of fish lingering.

He bought some ingredients at the market, then headed home with Xiaobai, all while pondering the matter of Li Zixuan from earlier.

First of all.

There were too many things that didn’t add up.

And the most crucial question was…

When had he ever asked that foolish disciple to come find him?

“There must be something I’ve overlooked.”

Qin Yang pinched the bridge of his nose, carried the grocery bag upstairs, inserted the key into the lock, and contemplated the previous events.

Li Zixuan had remained within his sight the entire time. Every interaction had been carefully controlled—there was absolutely no way he could have been exposed.

“That foolish girl started acting strange after returning from the Great Li Mountains…”

“During that period, there was only one time when I wasn’t by her side…”

As his thoughts reached this point.

Qin Yang stepped over the threshold, closed the security door, then glanced back at Xiaobai.

After returning home, Xiaobai had already transformed back into her white-haired loli form, barefoot, wearing one of Qin Yang’s old loose T-shirts that revealed her jade-like calves, busy washing vegetables and chopping meat.

Her expression was calm, just as usual.

“Putting on an act.”

Qin Yang closed his eyes, gently probing Xiaobai’s emotions, and sensed waves of anxiety and unease.

Beast Slaves and their masters share a mental connection.

If necessary, Qin Yang could actively sense Xiaobai’s emotions, physical condition, and location.

And now.

After a simple perception.

Qin Yang discovered that while Xiaobai appeared calm on the surface, looking steady as an old dog…

In reality, she was panicking inside!

Feeling Qin Yang’s gaze upon her, she immediately broke into a sweat, her three fluffy tails drooping behind her, and even her vegetable-washing speed slowed down.

“So there really is something fishy!”

Seeing this, Qin Yang remained unhurried. He went to the refrigerator, took out a bottle of cola, opened it and took a sip, then came to Xiaobai’s side, leaning against the kitchen cabinet as he said calmly:

“Xiaobai, what happens next is up to you—will you confess yourself, or shall I do the talking…”

As his calm words fell.

The sound of water in the sink stopped, and the room fell into silence. The pressure immediately shifted to Xiaobai’s side.

“What are you talking about… Master…”

Xiaobai froze in place, pursed her lips slightly, shook her head, and played dumb: “Xiaobai doesn’t know what you’re talking about…”

As she spoke, she narrowed her eyes, secretly observing Qin Yang’s reaction while thinking about how to handle the situation.

Could Master have found out?

Does he want this Fairy to speak first?

No way!

There’s no evidence or witnesses—what does Li Zixuan looking for you have to do with this Fairy!

“Heh, don’t want to talk, huh.”

Qin Yang took a sip of cola and leisurely voiced his speculation: “Li Zixuan started acting strange after that time in the Great Li Mountains, and you were the only one who had contact with her during that period…”

Remembering something, Qin Yang added: “If you don’t come clean properly today, you’d better watch out for that fox fur of yours. And don’t even think about asking me for any more Mind-Calming Pills in the future.”

His words hung in the air.The threat was undisguised, and the key points of the matter were laid out with piercing clarity.

Hearing this, Xiaobai immediately wilted and surrendered.

“Sorry, Master, I was wrong.”

She hopped off the small stool and moved behind Qin Yang, saying, “I was just joking, that’s all.”

As she spoke, she put on an ingratiating expression and began massaging his shoulders. “Master, are you tired? Let me massage your shoulders and rub your feet for you?”

“Cut the act.”

Qin Yang frowned and went straight to the point:

“What exactly did you leave for her that day? Confess everything truthfully.”

The incident was over and couldn’t be undone.

But the most critical issue now was—how much had Xiaobai actually revealed?

He had to understand the full story.

To avoid slipping up in front of Li Zixuan later.

“Master, I only gave Li Zixuan a stone—just one carved with the character ‘Qin.’ Beyond that, I told her nothing else, Master.”

Xiaobai spoke cautiously, “It was merely to leave her with a memento. I absolutely didn’t reveal any other information about you.”

Hearing this,

Qin Yang checked Xiaobai’s heart rate, confirmed she wasn’t lying, and only then felt relieved. He shot her a cold glare:

“This is the only time. If you dare do it again, be careful—I might just stir-fry some fox meat.”

“Eep!”

Xiaobai shrank back fearfully at his words, pitifully saying, “Master, fox meat doesn’t taste good. How about I make you braised pork ribs instead?”

“Xiaobai, I’m not joking with you. This matter is very serious.”

“I’ve smoothed things over for now, making a big issue vanish. But if you mess up again in the future, it won’t be as simple as this time.”

Qin Yang looked at Xiaobai, his authority radiating without anger. A chill pierced through her entire body, making her shiver instantly. She quickly lowered her head, not daring to meet his eyes again.

“Yes, Master. I won’t do it again.”

……

After reprimanding Xiaobai,

Qin Yang went to the balcony and sank into the Enlightenment Space, contemplating the Thunder Law Shard.

Within the Enlightenment Space,

the Thunder Law Fragment danced swiftly, leaping and darting joyfully through the void, a streak of silver light vanishing in its wake.

Qin Yang immersed himself in sensing the Law, his consciousness converging on the Thunder Law Fragment. He followed closely behind, tracing the path of the lightning, absorbing the essence of the Law Power.

A moment later.

Boom!

A sudden thunderclap tore through the night sky.

Lightning flashed and thunder roared as a thunderstorm descended violently.

Savage thunder rumbled across the dark heavens, as if tearing the firmament apart. Silvery dragon-like plasma weaved through the clouds, twisting and winding in the gloom.

“!!!”

In the kitchen, the dejected Xiaobai trembled at the sound, shuddering as she looked toward the balcony.

Amid the thunderous roars, Qin Yang leaned against the balcony, gazing up at the sky. With every gesture, he seemed to directly stir celestial phenomena.

Witnessing this, Xiaobai trembled in fear, finally understanding just how angry Qin Yang was this time.

When a sovereign rages, corpses pile high and blood flows like rivers.

But Qin Yang’s wrath had transformed into rolling thunder, creating the terrifying spectacle of heaven and man uniting!

“Sorry… Master…”

Xiaobai muttered remorsefully, staring at the thunderous scene in the night sky in terror. “Is Master going to strike me down with lightning?”

Meanwhile,

within the residential complex, the thunder stirred the winds and clouds, unleashing a thunderstorm that shook the heavens and brought down a torrential downpour.

Beep! Beep!

Among the buildings, car alarms blared incessantly.Every household was in an uproar, and the owners’ group chat instantly exploded.

“What the hell is with this weather? Again today!?”

“Thunder in the middle of the night, thunder in the evening—goddamn thunderstorms every single day, is that it?”

“Fellow cultivator! Go transcend your tribulation somewhere else! Are you even going to let us sleep?!!”
