This crazy body tempering did not last long before Ling Yun stopped.
Although the effect was significant, but there had to be a limit. If he overdid it, then it was possible that he would suffer irreparable damage, and the gains wouldn't make up for the losses.
However, he did not stop cultivating. Strands of Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth flowed endlessly into his body and into the Supreme Pagoda. After the transformation, it became a gentle purple grandmist energy. He controlled the blood and bones to enter his body, nurturing them to a state where they were slightly split open.
He could feel a numbness in his flesh and bones. It was as if he was a person that had starved for several months and was absorbing spirit energy at a crazy rate. The cracks on his bones slowly disappeared and a thin membrane gradually appeared.
Ling Yun slowly opened his eyes, and spat out a mouthful of impure Qi. Seeing a pair of beautiful eyes staring at him in a daze, he could not help but chuckle softly.
"Prince, you've finished cultivating!" Cai'Er's face turned red, her heart pounded as she quickly turned her head, and said gently.
"En!" Ling Yun gently nodded, wiped off the blood at the corner of his mouth, and stood up. Angele stretched his body, and the sound of beans being fried started coming out from his body.
Feeling the strength in his body, he said with satisfaction, "I will soon break through to the great circle of the first transition."
Hearing this, Cai'Er's eyes revealed joy. She was happy for Ling Yun, and said with a smile: "Then Cai'Er will congratulate Your Highness first!"
A hint of loneliness flashed past her eyes. She wanted to cultivate as well, to have powerful strength. It was for no other reason but to protect Lingyun and prevent him from getting hurt.
However, the heavens had played a big joke on her. She did not have any meridians in her body, so she could not absorb the surrounding spiritual energy.
The loneliness in Cai'Er's eyes did not escape Ling Yun's observation, and he sighed lightly in his heart.
He was very clear about Cai'Er's situation.
But even if he was once the top arcane master on the continent, he was still quite helpless, unable to do anything about it. His heart felt even more puzzled. How could a person not have meridians in their body? Without meridians, how could he survive? This was the first time he had seen this kind of situation, and also the first time he had heard of it.
Lightly holding Cai'Er's soft hand, he gave her comfort. After the events of the night before, as well as their conversation last night with Qin Yinyue. In his heart, he no longer resisted Cai'Er. Moreover, he already had Cai'Er in his heart.
Cai'Er's face turned red as she was suddenly grabbed by Ling Yun. She wanted to pull back her hand, but was held tightly by Ling Yun.
"Cai'Er, it's fine if you can't cultivate. The prince will always be with you." Ling Yun hugged Cai'Er and said gently.
"En!" Cai'Er lowered her head, her ears and neck turning pink as she spoke softly.
"Humph!" This scene happened to fall into the eyes of the mysterious young girl. She grit her teeth and coldly snorted. She felt slightly uncomfortable in her heart.
"What happened to me? He's him, I'm me, what does he do, what does it have to do with me! As long as I protect him for a year, I will be within the clan.
If he is unable to cultivate, then we will be people from two different worlds in the future and won't even have the chance to meet again! " The young girl slightly frowned as she forcefully suppressed the discomfort in her heart and softly said.
She also did not know why he was doing this. When she saw Ling Yun being embraced by others, she felt uncomfortable and wanted to force the two of them apart.
"Eh, where's Mengmeng?" Ling Yun felt that something was missing, and after a long while, he remembered that Xiao Long had disappeared. His brows slightly raised, and he said with some worry.
"Mengmeng?" Cai'Er looked at Ling Yun, puzzled.
"En!" Lingyun nodded and said, "It's just a snow-white kitten. Cai'Er, did you see it?"
He prayed that the little guy wouldn't run away from the War King's Mansion. Otherwise, with its appearance, it would be weird if it didn't get caught as a pet.
Cai'Er's face reddened, and he shook his head, "I didn't see it!"
As soon as she woke up, she focused all her attention on Ling Yun, not caring about a little kitten.
Hearing this, Lingyun's expression changed. He was about to use the Spirit Tattoos from the Pet Dimension to contact the little dragon cat, but the next scene made him want to vomit blood.
He heard the sound of shouts and footsteps.
"Quick, catch that damn cat! She actually dares to steal fish and eat in the kitchen!"
"There it is. Quickly go and catch it. Aiya, it escaped again."
"Damned cat, you've overturned the prince's wine jar, hurry and catch it, otherwise how are we going to explain this to the prince?"
"Quick, quick, quick! It's about to enter His Highness's courtyard! Stop it immediately! Otherwise, His Highness will be angry!"
"…"
For a time, the quiet Battle King Manor was in chaos. Servants, cooks, and guards all moved out.
The people who passed by were astonished. They even thought that they were hallucinating. The usually quiet War King's manor was actually so noisy. After knowing the whole story, their faces instantly became wonderful.
Such a big battle formation was just for the sake of capturing a harmless looking kitten.
Because the sky had already darkened last night and did not disturb the people in the manor, and because the little kitten had always been in his arms, it did not know that the little kitten that had messed up the War King's manor was brought back by its crown prince.
Ling Yun's face was as black as the bottom of a pot. Hearing the clamor outside, he already roughly knew what had happened. If he wasn't mistaken, this little guy should have already flipped the entire Battle King's Mansion upside down.
Thinking about Ling Zhan's return and the chaotic scene at the Battle King's Mansion, Ling Yun could not help but shiver.
With a dark expression, he opened the door to the courtyard and a white figure jumped into his arms. It was the little dragon cat. It stuck out its little tongue, and was gasping for breath. It looked at Lingyun innocently, and a hint of grievance appeared in its eyes.
It was just hungry. Seeing that Lingyun was still cultivating, it did not disturb him and went out to find something to eat.
In the end, the group of people outside madly chased after it. If it wasn't for its agility, it would have long been caught by the bad guys outside.
In its little claws, it was holding onto a fish that was spitting white foam. As it held onto the fish, it continuously rolled its eyes.
The corner of Ling Yun's mouth twitched. Looking at its pitiful appearance, the anger just now was released like floodwaters.
At this time, the maids and servants who were out trying to catch the little dragon cat also discovered Lingyun's presence. They were so scared that their faces turned pale and they kneeled on the ground.
Their faces were filled with shame. Their large group of people had actually been turned into a mess by a little kitten.
"Your Highness, you saw a snow-white kitten enter your yard just now!" A new maidservant emboldened herself by lowering her head and asking.
"Get up! It's here! " Ling Yun said softly. He wasn't angry, because it wasn't the fault of the maidservants. It could only mean that the destructive power of the little dragon cat was too strong.
"Huh?" Each of the servants carefully raised their heads, and looked at Ling Yun with astonishment. In their minds, Ling Yun and Ling Zhan did not like to cause a scene, and so the mansion could not allow even the slightest bit of chaos.
Today, that darn cat flipped the whole palace upside down, how could Ling Yun not be angry, he should be furious!
"Meow meow."
However, when they heard the aggrieved cries of the kitten and wanted to catch it, they looked towards the direction of the sound. They saw the aggrieved little kitten staring at Lingyun, its little claws pointing at them, gesticulating nonstop. As though he was complaining, the corners of his mouth twitched uncontrollably. No wonder His Highness wasn't angry. So it was because he had brought the kitten into the palace!
"Your Highness!" An old man with a head full of white hair and a pair of muddy eyes, who looked like he was suffering from an illness, walked unsteadily towards Ling Yun from behind the crowd, as if a gust of wind could knock him down.
He was the Chief Steward of the Battle King's Mansion, so he was in charge of everything in the Battle King's Mansion.
Ling Yun did not know the name of the butler, and only knew that the butler had a very high status. Ling Zhan trusted him a lot, and asked him to call him Uncle Fu. From the moment he could remember, Uncle Fu had always been in the War King's Mansion, and looked as if he could raise his legs at any time.
"Uncle Fu, what's wrong?" Ling Yun asked with a smile.
Uncle Fu's face was filled with a bitter smile as he looked at the little dragon cat in Lingyun's arms. His face revealed a helpless expression. He looked at Ling Yun with hidden bitterness, "Your highness, your pet is too good at messing around. Right now, the palace …"
At this point, Uncle Fu did not continue.
Lingyun's heart skipped a beat. Was Mengmeng more destructive than he thought? His gaze couldn't help but turn to the little dragon cat in his arms. However, the little dragon cat's eyes were as clear as a clear spring, and it even revealed a trace of grievance.
Uncle Fu called it a kitten so he didn't retort and curled up in his arms.
Seeing its appearance, Ling Yun was even more sure of his guess.
"Your Highness, can I hug the kitten?" A weak voice sounded out. Lingyun turned his head and saw Cai'Er sitting in a wheelchair beside him. Her eyes sparkled as she looked at the cute girl in Lingyun's arms, filled with love.
Lingyun looked at the little dragon cat in his arms, only to see it shaking its head. It tightly grabbed onto Lingyun's belt, afraid that Lingyun would throw it to Cai'Er and destroy it again.
Seeing this, Ling Yun could only bitterly smile at Cai'Er, causing his to lower his head in disappointment.
"I'll go take a look!" Lingyun gave Meng Meng a look and comforted Cai'Er. He walked out of the courtyard. He wanted to see how well the night's work had worked out for the little dragon cat.
Behind him, Uncle Fu opened his mouth but didn't say anything.
He quickly followed behind Lingyun with his head lowered and a bitter smile. He did not say a word, and even though he was panting heavily, he was only one step behind Lingyun.
"Hey, Xiaoqing, what did that kitten do?" Cai'Er called out to a servant girl that she was on good terms with. Her eyes were filled with curiosity as she asked in a low voice.
Hearing Cai'Er calling him, that servant girl called Xiao Qing had a strange look in her eyes, and a trace of coldness flashed in the depths of her eyes. Lingyun cared so much about her, if he killed her or kidnapped her, Lingyun would definitely go crazy! Perhaps the young duke will look at me differently and favor me!
Standing beside Cai'Er, his mouth slightly twitched as he revealed a bitter smile. "Sister Cai'Er, that kitten has caused a huge mess this time. Not only did it cause chaos in the kitchen, it even broke into the prince's wine storehouse, breaking into dozens of pots of royal wine, then it broke into the mourning hall and knocked over the queen's spirit tablet. And …"
