Chapter 47

"Um, so it seems that your cultivation technique has made some progress. That's good, but next time if you are going to break through in your cultivation technique, you must have Liu Ping by your side to watch over you. Oh, no, after you return to the main family, Liu Ping may not be able to continue guiding you in your martial arts cultivation. Hmm, it seems I still need to make some arrangements for this matter!"

Zhu Junyan was clearly still a bit worried. Although he didn't see Zhu Lingwu's painful appearance earlier, after hearing the message Liang Cai sent, he was genuinely concerned that his straightforward little fifth son might recklessly practice and suffer some unexpected harm.

"No problem, no problem! Father, don't worry, I'll be careful! It's just that I've entered the initial stage of the Ninefold Thunder Dominating Body Technique, nothing dangerous! Father, go back, I still need to practice martial arts techniques!"

Zhu Lingwu didn't want anyone else to watch him cultivate anymore. Previously, he didn't understand, so he needed Liu Ping's guidance. Now that he had some knowledge of martial arts cultivation, he naturally didn't want others to see the special abilities he displayed during his cultivation.

Seeing Zhu Lingwu say this, Zhu Junyan could only sigh. He warned Zhu Lingwu a few more times before turning to leave. He had been cultivating his qi when the news came, and his internal qi was inevitably a bit unstable, so he needed to return to adjust.

Zhu Lingwu bowed to see Zhu Junyan off, and he let out a sigh of relief. He never expected that breaking through the Ninefold Thunder Dominating Body Technique would cause such a sudden change, forcing him to tear his face and deal with the wandering soul that Meng Yishi had released to monitor him.

But now that everything was settled, Zhu Lingwu was worried about Meng Yishi's reaction. Now that he had dealt with the spy sent by the other side, what would Meng Yishi do?

At that moment, Zhu Lingwu's soul sense stirred. The wandering soul he had captured as a sub-soul seemed to receive a soul message.

"Such a quick reaction! Hmm, it seems to be an order for the wandering soul to return. So, he doesn't know that the wandering soul has already been dealt with by me. Hmm, it's probably because the wandering soul is missing a part of its soul power, so he can sense the problem immediately. Unfortunately, I can't let it go back. It's already my sub-soul, and if I let it go, he would know that I can capture small ghosts!"

Zhu Lingwu couldn't help but hesitate. It was really troublesome now, whether to let it go or not, neither was good.

Perhaps when Zhu Lingwu dealt with that wandering soul, Meng Yishi sensed something, but since Zhu Lingwu didn't destroy the wandering soul, just captured it as his sub-soul, Meng Yishi probably didn't know that the wandering ghost he raised had changed hands.

After thinking for a long time, Zhu Lingwu decided to ignore it. After all, the wandering souls sent out could encounter many accidents. Zhu Junyan had just come to his practice room, so Meng Yishi might mistakenly think that Zhu Junyan had dealt with it.

Zhu Lingwu calmed himself down and simply left the practice room. However, today he didn't have the heart to continue practicing the Thunder Palm and Swift Swallow Step. Sending Zhu Junyan away was just an excuse.

Walking out of the practice room, Zhu Lingwu looked at the wooden stakes and sand training array outside, but he felt lazy and didn't want to move. His fingers rubbed slightly, and a faint current flowed between them.

Although there was no power source to absorb the current, Zhu Lingwu still absorbed a bit of current from the air. Zhu Lingwu wasn't sure if it was the natural elements in the air or the transformation of the earth's spiritual energy into current.

Zhu Lingwu didn't need to worry about this. After all, he could now get some current to cultivate the Ninefold Thunder Dominating Body Technique at any time. Although the absorbed current wasn't much, it could still be a snack to eat at any time.

Liang Cai and the other servants and companions were smart enough not to approach. After the recent mishap, they didn't dare to come and listen to Zhu Lingwu's scolding.

For a moment, Zhu Lingwu was alone. He hesitated for a moment and then walked to the side room where the white fox was kept.

Opening the door, the white fox inside was still lying lazily in place. But soon it seemed to sense something and opened its eyes to look at Zhu Lingwu. As the light flickered, it noticed the change in Zhu Lingwu's body.

The hair that had been standing up due to static electricity was now soft and hanging down behind Zhu Lingwu, draped loosely.

"You're really sensitive, aren't you? Now you're not afraid of me holding you, right? Come over here obediently!"

Zhu Lingwu naturally noticed the change in the white fox's expression. He went to the iron cage, opened the door, and beckoned to the white fox with his finger.

The white fox reluctantly walked over to Zhu Lingwu, its three tails high in the air, swaying left and right as it moved, like a graceful woman walking slowly.

Looking at Zhu Lingwu, the white fox yawned and shook its head, looking a bit bored.

Zhu Lingwu picked it up and stroked its soft fur. Without the static electricity on Zhu Lingwu's body, the white fox seemed to enjoy the petting.

"Hmm, from today on, I won't keep you in the cage anymore. I'll keep you with me! But it might not be safe with me, it could be more dangerous, because I've offended someone who's hard to deal with! Hmm, if you can speak, teach me how to avoid this person!"

Zhu Lingwu held the white fox and muttered to himself. He didn't hide much from the white fox. After all, even if it was a nine-tailed fox demon, it was still in its early stage and, no matter how smart, couldn't expose his identity.

The white fox, hearing Zhu Lingwu's words, was a bit confused about why he was doing this. Suddenly releasing it and saying he would keep it with him, and that it would be more dangerous.

It stared blankly at Zhu Lingwu, its eyes flickering. It couldn't help but scratch Zhu Lingwu with its claws.

Zhu Lingwu's heart stirred, and he suddenly thought of something. Although he felt it was unlikely, he still asked the white fox, "Okay, maybe you can't speak now, but can you write? Are you smart enough to recognize human writing? This way, we can communicate! Ha, look, your master is very smart! Hmm, it's fine if you can't, I'll teach you!"

The writing in this world was traditional cursive script. The original owner of Zhu Lingwu's body, an eight-year-old noble child, of course, had been taught to read and write.

The white fox, hearing Zhu Lingwu's words, its eyes flickered again. This wasn't because of its eyes, but because it was really thinking about what Zhu Lingwu said.

"You can understand human speech. Even if you don't know human writing now, I can teach you. Listen, if you don't cooperate, I won't let you eat, and I'll punish you with electricity! Little Daji, you should know the consequences!"

Zhu Lingwu held the white fox's two paws and waved them in front of him. Thinking of this, he suddenly felt he had something to do.
