Chapter 466 - Bai Xianer

Chapter 466: Bai Xianer

A shy red dot appeared on the eastern seas, shining light onto the earth.

Ling Yun didn’t move from his meditation. He concentrated and silently practiced his Stellar Condensation Technique.

It was the best time of the day to cultivate the technique.

Ling Yun had been cultivating the Stellar Condensation Technique at this time of the day every day. However, the high-rise buildings in the city blocked the morning sun. Moreover, the air in the city was seriously polluted. Particles in the air blocked some of the sunlight from entering Ling Yun’s body.

It was different this time. Ling Yun was on an inhabited island. The sky was as blue as sapphire, the sea azure. The air was fresh, and dense water spiritual energy enveloped him. Ling Yun could cultivate more efficiently in such an environment.

After one whole hour, when the sun had completely risen, Ling Yun slowly reduced his speed of practice.

“Feels good! This environment is ideal for cultivation! However, it won’t do in the long run since only water spiritual energy is available here…”

Ling Yun took a deep breath and glanced at the surrounding seas before returning to the cave abode.

Little White cultivated feverishly, but there was still no signs of a breakthrough. Obviously, the time wasn’t ripe.

“Maybe it’s not the time for Little White to transform? Are we too early?” Ling Yun muttered to himself while watching Little White grow a little bigger.

A nine-tailed celestial fox could transform into a human if they successfully passed their tribulation after their third tail sprouted.

This information was from a book of classics in the Cultivation World. Ling Yun had never seen it happen with his own eyes, but he knew it must be true. He just didn’t know the exact time it would happen.

However, she was definitely nearing the time of transformation since she was willing to come along with Ling Yun.

Otherwise, there was no need to come to this deserted island. No one had any control over tribulations.

Ling Yun only called out to the engrossed Little White when it was time for food.

In the following days, Ling Yun made a series of preparations on Turtle Island, including setting up the Myriad Nine Slaughter Formation to prevent any enemies from coming within range.

The current Ling Yun wasn’t the same as when he cast the spell formation with his divine sense for the villa. At that time, he only needed to lift a finger and the stone would fall into place.

He didn’t possess the divine sense now, so he had to do a lot of work himself. Ling Yun manually calculated the distances between the stones and moved the stones himself. The workload was huge. Even with his strength and speed, it would be fortunate if he could finish it within a day.

This spell formation only worked on practitioners who had yet to attain the Xiantian Realm, though it could potentially cause serious injuries to them. An ordinary person would most likely be killed by a blunder.

Ling Yun spent nine days perfecting the spell formation, but even then, Little White had yet to show any signs of transformation. He cultivated in the time being and also cast two other eight trigrams formations to help Little White during her tribulation.

Little White had stopped consuming food, concentrating only on her cultivation. She was near the time of transformation.

The armies and navies from Japan and the United States that Nozaki Yuji spoke of didn’t appear. The seas were calm, as though Turtle Island had been forgotten altogether.

Ling Yun also used his time wisely. In addition to his constant cultivation of the Yin-Yang harmony balance and the Stellar Condensation Technique, he also used the Level Two Spirit Forming Talisman to absorb the rich water spiritual energy from the sea. He used up all of his Spirit Forming Talismans in this manner.

Ling Yun explored the caves when he was bored. He even used the Devil’s Blade to carve stone pots and bowls to cook whatever he caught from the sea. These were absolutely natural and pollution-free. The days passed in primitive joy.

During this period, Ling Yun switched his phone on once in an attempt to contact Tang Meng and the rest. However, while the battery was full, the phone received no signal, so he was forced to switch it off dejectedly.

Another eight days passed. Ling Yun was returning to the cave abode after his morning cultivation.

Ling Yun was elated to see Little White standing upright at the entrance of the cave, waiting quietly for him to return. She had stopped her cultivation.

Little White is becoming more human-like… Ling Yun marveled in his heart.

“Master, your… your mustache is getting long…” A voice that was so sweet it would make one cringe echoed in the cave!

Lightning seemed to have struck Ling Yun! He stood there, dumbfounded for quite some time!

That was Little White’s voice! Little White could speak!

Ling Yun’s knees buckled and almost gave way in his excitement!

In two deft steps, Ling Yun moved to Little White and embraced her! She had nearly doubled in size!

“Little White, you… you can speak now?” Ling Yun reaffirmed agitatedly.

A shy and charming radiance escaped from Little White’s eyes. Spiritual energy was released from her foxy body without restraint, which Ling Yun absorbed entirely.

Little White nodded demurely. “Yes, Master, please grant me a name…”

Ling Yun didn’t give a d*mn about a name. “Little White, do you know when your tribulation will come?” Ling Yun asked eagerly.

“Yes, Master. It should be tonight…” Little White replied obediently.

“Great!” Ling Yun was beside himself with joy!

“Let’s talk inside!” Ling Yun picked Little White up and entered the cave. He sat on the stone bench and indicated for Little White to sit down as well.

Only, Little White didn’t comply. “Little White dare not do something as insolent as sitting down while Master is here.”

Little White’s voice was so sweet that he was about to die of a sugar rush. As much as he didn’t want to, he swallowed and deliberately put on a stern face. “I have a few things to tell you now that you can speak. Listen well!”

Little White was genuinely shocked, thinking she had angered Ling Yun. She quickly obeyed.

Ling Yun took a careful look at Little White and realized she was approximately 170cm in height. He was quite sure that she would look sixteen after her tribulation.

“First, don’t call me Master. We are equal. You can call me by my name. Understand?”

“Master saved Little White’s life and took Little White in. Now Master is helping Little White in her tribulation. Little White is willing to dedicate her whole life to serving Master, why can’t Little White address Master as Master?” Confusion seeped out from Little White’s eyes.

“Ahem Ahem…” Ling Yun coughed, buying time. “Okay, you can call me that as long as we’re alone. This will cause me problems if we are outside…” Ling Yun gave in after some thought.

“I understand. In that case, I will call you by your name when there are other people around and address you as Master only when we are alone.” A twinkle of cunning seemed to appear in her eyes momentarily.

Ling Yun knew Little White wouldn’t give in any further from her persistent eyes. He agreed and continued, saying, “Second, we are not in a master-slave relationship. You can just get along with me like how I get along with Ning Er. Understand?”

“Little White doesn’t dare…” Little White stole a glance at Ling Yun.

Ling Yun was slightly pissed. Both of the issues that Ling Yun brought up were rejected by Little White, how could their conversation continue?

He glared and slammed the stone table. “Sit down, Little White!” Ling Yun bellowed.

Little White dropped her height and sat down immediately. She thought that she had really infuriated Ling Yun.

Ling Yun peered at Little White, slightly worried that he had really shocked her. He snickered when he saw her peeping back at him.

“We will just get along normally. There is no need to have such clear division. Do you understand, Little White?”

“Understood, Master.” Little White agreed readily this time.

“Call me Ling Yun!”

“Yes, Master Big Brother Ling Yun…”

Ling Yun didn’t want to dive any further into this, so he changed the subject. “Little White, you asked me to give you a name. I gave it some thought. How do you feel about the name Xian Er?”

“Xian Er… Xian Er…” Little White muttered twice under her breath, her face filled with jubilation. “Master Big Brother Ling Yun, I like the sound of Xian Er, Xian Er likes the name very much!”

Ling Yun nodded satisfactorily and continued, “As for your surname, I thought of three. You can follow my surname Ling, or you can use the surname Hu 1 since you are a nine-tailed celestial fox. Of course, there is also Bai 1. It’s your choice.”

Little White really gave it some serious thought this time. “Master Big Brother Ling Yun, Little White would very much like to have the same surname as you, but I like Bai as a surname better…” Little White replied with a mysterious charm.

Ling Yun understood what Little White was thinking. She gave up Hu because she didn’t want others to be reminded that she was a fox.

There was a profound reason for not accepting Ling as a surname.

He agreed. “Little White, Bai Xianer. Alright, you are Bai Xianer from now on!”

Bai Xianer’s foxy body disappeared from the stone bench right into Ling Yun’s embrace. “Thank you for granting Little White a name, Master! Little White finally has a name! I’m Bai Xianer!”

Ling Yun held Bai Xianer, allowing her soft body to rub all over him. The dimple on his left cheek deepened and was especially alluring.
