Chapter 109: A Small Wish Every Day, My Name is Qiao Jiaxi
“This is the spirit beast feed that the Sect Leader bought from the branch of the Spirit Beast Sect, which greatly promotes the growth of spirit beasts,” Ye Feng immediately explained.
Upon hearing this, the disciples immediately stopped their cultivation and gathered around the dog bowl to watch.
Brother Flathead stood up, looked around at their expectant eyes, and then glanced at the feed in the dog bowl as if he felt insulted.
He stamped his feet repeatedly, seemingly saying: I, the mighty Brother Flathead who confronts the heavens, the earth, and the air, you dare to feed me with feed in a dog bowl?
Ye Feng blinked and silently replaced the dog bowl with a beautifully crafted ceramic plate and refilled it with spirit beast feed.
Seeing this change in presentation, Brother Flathead’s attitude took a complete turn, and he immediately began to nibble, finding the taste superb. With his front paws, he kept scooping at the feed and in no time ate up ten pounds, still feeling unsatisfied, so he nudged Ye Feng with his snout for more.
“How’s it, tasty? Does it improve your strength?” Ye Feng asked.
Brother Flathead nodded his head repeatedly.
Ye Feng was delighted, immediately filling another ten pounds of feed for Brother Flathead.
The other spiritual beasts also looked on eagerly; Ye Feng brought over large plates from the kitchen and gave each mountain guardian spirit beast a share of ten pounds.
They began to eat, and when thirsty, they drank from the spiritual spring water.
“Sect Master Uncle, is this spirit beast feed effective?” Li Jiaojiao curiously asked, finding the feed fragrant. If it weren’t for Ye Feng stating that it wasn’t for human consumption, she would have wanted to grab a handful for a taste.
Ye Feng nodded: “This is a feed from the Spirit Beast Sect. How could it not be effective?”
Although Xie Jiaren is forthright, the spirit beast feed she prepares is genuinely powerful, as it contains nutrients that spirit beasts lack.
Momentarily, Mo Ying spoke up: “I’ve heard that, like the Hundred Artifacts Sect, the Spirit Beast Sect is a neutral Star-Level Sect. The difference is, the reputation of the Spirit Beast Sect has not been prominent. Only in the past few years did it emerge a prodigious miss who perfected the formula, creating very effective feed and solidifying their fame.”
Pausing, Mo Ying continued: “It’s said that this Miss is adored by many, pure as ice and jade, intelligent and well-read, deeply beloved by everyone in the Spirit Beast Sect and is definitely the prime candidate for the next Sect Master.”
“I also heard that the Sect Master of the Spirit Beast Sect has been seeking a suitor for this Miss, but unfortunately, she has refused them all. The reason is that romance between men and women would only hinder her progress in advancing the Sect,” Mo Ying added.
Hearing this, the disciples’ faces showed admiration.
“I really want to meet this legendary Miss,” Shi Lei exclaimed.
“Truly an extraordinary woman,” even Huo Yunjie expressed his admiration.
Ye Feng’s face fell, and he silently complained: “Xie Jiaren, pure as ice and jade? Spouting nonsense is more like it! Indeed, many things cannot be judged by appearance alone. Hearing is false, seeing is believing.”
Thinking this, Ye Feng shook his head.
However, Ye Feng wouldn’t say such things out loud.
“So tasty, I ate so much!” Pig San Pang said with a full round belly, taking a mouthful of spiritual spring water and lying satisfied on the ground before soon falling asleep.
“So sleepy!” Fox Da Hong yawned.
Apart from Brother Flathead still wanting to eat, all the other spiritual beasts were getting sleepy and lay down to rest.
Ye Feng took out another twenty pounds of feed, and after Brother Flathead finished eating, he finally felt sleepy and soon started to snore loudly.
The next morning.
Ye Feng felt that his power had significantly increased. Surprised at first, he suddenly opened the Spirit Beast Pavilion’s information panel.
Brother Flathead was still at the high-ranking demon soldier peak, and the Iron Claw Dragon Eagle and Fox Da Hong also remained at the middle-rank demon soldier level.
However, the Little White Fox, Dog Er Ha, Pig San Pang, Toad Si Chu, and Pumpkin Wu Gua, these lower-rank demon soldiers, were now almost at the middle-rank demon soldier level, indicating that the Spirit Beast Sect’s feed was quite effective.
“Wow, I’m stronger!” Dog Er Ha had just woken up to find its strength had improved, and it hopped high into the air.
“Me too!” Pig San Pang swung his pigtail.
“Look, the leaves on my head are greener,” Pumpkin Wu Gua pointed to the two green leaves on his head, hopping up and down happily in his place.
Hearing the words of the others, Ye Feng was also pleased, but when he heard what Pumpkin Wu Gua said, his expression turned odd.
So, turning greener for Pumpkin Wu Gua also means getting stronger?
“Ding, congratulations to the Sect Leader, the Misty Sect Prestige Value has broken through the 3,000 mark, and the sect’s fortune has been further improved. ‘Wishful Thinking,’ which fulfills a small wish of the Sect Leader every day, is now unlocked,” the System sent a notification.
Ye Feng was startled, and immediately opened the panel.
[Sect Prestige Value: 3001]
[Remaining Redeemable Points: 2701]
Ye Feng was immediately astonished when he saw this information, wondering how the reputation points had increased so much in such a short time.
“Could it be, the news of our sect’s advancement to a higher rank has completely spread, causing our prestige points to surge into an explosive period?” Ye Feng mused and opened the introduction to the “Wishful Thinking” function.
[New Feature: Wishful Thinking]
[Effect: As the Sect Leader blessed with luck, you can make one small wish daily. As long as it’s within the given conditions, the wish is guaranteed to come true. When the luck is strong enough, small wishes can even turn into big wishes.]
“Is there such a feature?”
Ye Feng widened his eyes and his smile gradually grew twisted, “System, I want to make a wish for a beauty with a bombshell body!”
“Request too high, cannot be fulfilled.” the System declared.
“I want a lower-grade Spiritual Artifact.”
“Request too high, cannot be fulfilled.”
Scratching his head, Ye Feng tried many times but was told each attempt couldn’t be realized. Finally, he looked up at the sky helplessly and said, “I want to make a wish for a cup of Oblivion Water!”
The next moment, Ye Feng turned his head and found his right hand holding a glass cup filled with lemon water.
“What kind of spell is this?”
Li Jiaojiao and Jia Yulan happened to see Ye Feng make a wish and get a cup of Oblivion Water, their eyes full of shock.
“Can it really be done?” Ye Feng was also stunned.
It seemed that the so-called small wishes the Dog System referred to were indeed trivial, as Ye Feng found through his attempts that any wish valued over a hundred copper coins could not be fulfilled.
“Materializing out of thin air?” Mo Ying also saw this scene and marveled.
Sipping on the sour and astringent lemon water, Ye Feng said to the disciples, “Don’t be surprised, as the Chosen One, I am protected by Heroic Spirits and can make one small wish every day. If you need anything in the future, just let me make a wish for you!”
“Really?”
The disciples were excitedly astonished.
“Of course,” Ye Feng nodded, speaking mischievously, “If our Misty Sect ever goes bankrupt, I could make a small wish every day and we could survive by selling salted fish.”
Hearing this, the disciples immediately rolled their eyes.
In the next few days, Ye Feng stayed idle at Misty Peak.
Every day, he made a small wish to help Jia Yulan get a hairpin, help Mo Ying get a Black Face-Covering Veil, and help Li Jiaojiao get a wooden chopping board.
And during these days, many people from Whitefloat City aspired to join the Misty Sect, drawn by its reputation.
However, most of these people were greedy and had impure motives; they were not approved by the system and couldn’t be taken in as sect members.
Finding the daily interviews too bothersome, Ye Feng set up a stone tablet at the base of the mountain path with the inscription:
Anyone who can reach the summit on their own strength is eligible to join the Misty Sect!
After the tablet was erected, Ye Feng controlled the Five Elements Consecutive Array through the system so that whenever someone meeting the conditions arrived, they could naturally pass through the Misty Area of the formation.
If they didn’t meet the system’s requirements, they would naturally be trapped by the formation.
Thus, Ye Feng enjoyed his peace.
For several consecutive days, no one managed to reach the top.
“Sigh, it’s so hard to find a disciple.”
Ye Feng shook his head and lay down on a folding chair at the entrance of the Misty Sect.
“Excuse me, is this Misty Sect?” Before long, a timid voice rang out at the summit.
Ye Feng’s eyes snapped open as he looked at the youth in front of him, dressed in ragged clothes but with clear and determined eyes. He rubbed his eyes in disbelief and asked, “You actually made it all the way up here?”
The youth hesitated, then said, “I saw the stone tablet at the base of the mountain, stating that anyone who could reach the top was qualified to join the Misty Sect, so I gave it a try and made it. May I ask who you are?”
“I am Ye Feng.”
“You’re the Sect Leader of the Misty Sect? That’s great, my name is Qiao Jiaxi, please take me as your disciple!”
The youth knelt on both knees, repeatedly kowtowing to Ye Feng.
