Chapter 74: Banter

Suddenly, the sapling twisted and twisted as it grew after devouring the remaining negative energy. Although looking like a sapling, Jia Hao felt like it was a more humanoid shape.

However, without paying attention, Jia Hao chanted the mantra of the second chapter, drawing out the power of the sapling to slowly circulate.

' A person's consciousness and the consciousness of the world is connected. When one consciousness becomes strong enough, it can easily affect the other one.'

' Although upon reaching the second stage, you can barely tap on the power, you can certainly create the illusion so.'

The power of the second chapter is hallucination, hypnotism, and affecting other's psych. It's a much more extensive version of the first chapter, making Jia Hao control someone truly.

However, it will consume the spiritual energy along with the energy of emotions stored in the sapling. So, Jia Hao still had to collect the emotions of others all the time.

" Although it's still simple, reaching the third chapter would cost another abundance of emotions, more likely ten times what I needed for the seed of desire." Jia Hao mumbled.

Along with that, his sense of understanding emotions also increased. And with a bit of effort, he might predict what the other person is thinking, or telling the truth or lie.

Suddenly, his meditative stance was broken as he heard the door opening with a loud creak.

" Young Lord, Please get up. It's already night." Minmin's voice echoed. She was surprised when she saw Jia Hao sitting in a meditative position in the darkness, with the lamp illuminating his handsome face lightly.

The moment he opened his eyes, Minming suddenly felt his vision blurring. It was as is suddenly standing in a meadow full of flowers, with the sun shining brightly on her head.

" What happened, Minmin?"

Minmin heard the ethereal voice as she raised her head and saw Jia Hao standing not far from her. He looked so handsome and charming, Minmin simply couldn't resist herself from throwing herself into his arms.

" Minmin!"

" Ahh!"

Minmin snapped back as she looked around hurriedly, seeing the familiar cell of reflection and Jia Hao standing before her. " Wh-What just happened? I thought I was in..."

" Minmin, I guess you've already been charmed by this young master, huh?" Jia Hao grinned as he walked out. " Already daydreaming?"

" N-No, It's not that!" Minmin hurriedly turned around. " Please come with me, Young Miss wishes to dine with you."

' Hehe, I guess my technique is effective.' Jia Hao chuckled inwardly.

" It's already night?" Jia Hao was surprised. He didn't expect to meditate the entire day.

With a nod, he followed Minmin. When he entered the courtyard, he could see Cai Yixue's figure in the lamplight, who was setting up the dining table meticulously.

" A lovely woman, a curtain rolled up

" Don't worry, Wife. He will get what he deserves." Jia Hao smiled. Using this chance, he wanted to hold the soft hands of his wife...But Cai Yixue sensed it and pulled away her palm.

" From women, I heard the rumor that Young Master Jia became very famous in Phoenix Cloud Pavilion."

" .... "

Jia Hao's face twitched as he silently gazed at Cai Yixue. " Just how many times you are going to poke me with that?"

" Till I wish."

Cai Yixue replied curtly. Jia Hao grumbled when he heard that. " I guess the gift I prepared for you is no longer of use. It's my fault..."

When Cai Yixue heard Jia Hao's mumble, her ears couldn't help but get perked.

" What...Are you talking about?" She asked in a fake curiosity. " Gift?"

" Gift? What gift? I don't have anything." Jia Hao chuckled as he looked at her.

" Hmph! Annoying!"

Cai Yixue puffed her cheeks as she hurriedly finished eating. " I am going back to sleep."

" I won't be coming with you." Jia Hao spoke. " I am thinking of practicing my martial arts."

Cai Yixue paused as she turned around, her face softening for a moment before regaining the usual coldness.

" Minmin, Give him the bottle I prepared earlier."

" Yes, Young Miss." Minmin nodded as she walked out. After a while, she returned and gave Jia Hao a jade bottle.

" This..."

" This is the Body Tempering Pill Zhu Wuya bought for his son. Young Miss saved it for Young Lord." Minmin smiled.

Suddenly, Jia Hao's heart turned warm when he heard that. " En, Tell her that I am thankful for this."

" Why don't you go and tell that by yourself?" Minmin asked.

" Because, I am going to practice now."

Jia Hao laughed as he turned around, walking into the training yard.

There were two pills inside, each giving a gentle medicinal fragrance. Without delaying, He popped both of them into his mouth.

' I hope I reach the Complete Transformation Stage tomorrow.'
