The Art of Subduing Dragons

Chapter 33

After leaving the Cold Dew Courtyard, Ruan Li immediately sneaked over to the Western Peak.

When Luo Qingci arrived at the Western Peak, dragging her exhausted body, she indeed heard Ruan Li's anxious shouts.

Ruan Li had come to Tianyan Sect alone and was always on guard. Even though Su Yu was nice, he was still a human. Moreover, even without hatred, it's hard for people to let down all their defenses. However, this Earth Spirit was different; Luo Qingci was well aware of the importance of this role to Ruan Li.

A-Ling was Ruan Li's support, a safe haven amidst layers of constraints where she could breathe and confide.

Luo Qingci remembered that her mission also included preventing the protagonist from turning dark and destroying the world. Mental health was very important.

"Why are you so clingy? We just parted, and you're already shouting for me."

A familiar and teasing voice rang out, finally calming Ruan Li's anxious and helpless heart.

"I'm not! You scared me to death. Why did it take so long for you to come out? I thought you were discovered by my master. Are you okay?"

See, only in front of this identity does she act like a child.

"You know how scary your master is. I felt like she was about to discover me, so I had to hide quickly."

"I know, but you didn't show up even after she left, so I was worried that something might have happened to you, so I came to find you."

"I didn't want to disturb you since you leveled up. Seeing you're okay, I wasn't in a hurry to see you. I was ready to rest, but you woke me up." She yawned as she spoke.

"I'm sorry for waking you up. However, I brought you something good." Saying this, Luo Qingci took out a handkerchief from her bosom, revealing two plum blossom cakes inside.

"You said you haven't tasted the hundred flavors of the mortal world and can only enjoy the wind and moon. Since you could drink spiritual tea before, these cakes should be fine for you to try."

Looking at the exquisitely crafted plum blossom cakes that seemed even more refined than those in her own room, Luo Qingci didn't know whether to feel happy or sour. She had previously lamented that she ate the plum blossom cakes first, but these were clearly even better than those given to her.

Luo Qingci had always used the excuse of not cultivating a spiritual body to remain unseen, only allowing Ruan Li to sense her spiritual fluctuations.

So, Ruan Li laid the handkerchief on the grass and looked at it with anticipation.

Luo Qingci used a bit of magic, and a piece of the plum blossom cake appeared in her hand.

After taking a bite, Luo Qingci couldn't help but praise the little dragon cub's innate skill. The plum blossom cake was even more delicate and soft than the one she had just eaten, with a gentler sweetness, and the red and white parts had more distinct textures.

"This is the best dish I've made; I kept the most beautiful ones for you."

"And the bad ones? The ugly ones? You didn't give them to your master, did you?"

After saying this, Ruan Li was stunned, then she smiled and touched her pinky finger. Just like back in the day, when caught doing something bad, she would grasp her finger.

"No, I ate them myself. The ones given to the master are also quite good."

"Your master is truly lucky to have such a good disciple."
