Xiao Shen looked up at the sky and asked. "Fairy Silver Star Sage, how long does it take to refine that ginseng?"

If it would not take too long, then it would be best to directly head over and refine the ginseng so that she would get back her strength.

He was not really keen on visiting the police uncles and aunties, so he hoped that she could quickly recover and explain everything to Mr. and Mrs. Jiang.

With zings the livestream bullet chat screen flashed as comments passed by.

[Generally, refining a ginseng takes some three to four years...]

[Anchor, you need spiritual energy to refine a ginseng]

[If you use a proper qi cauldron, you’d be done in a few hours, if you’re only talking about the pill brewing stage]

[Anchor, do you even know how to refine things?]

[Fairy Silver Star Sage: We can finish it tonight! Take me to the three thousand year old ginseng!]

[Ah~ I remember the day I planted it as though it were yesterday... Then a certain person popped up and took it after beating me up]

[Fairy Wuthering Heavens Heart Master: Ahaha...]

[Fairy Silver Star Sage: Oh, so that was how you got that ginseng back then, Wuthering?]

[Fairy Wuthering Heavens Heart Master: Bah!]

Xiao Shen sighed and shook his head. He could only wonder what the relationship between Fairy Silver Star Sage and Fairy Wuthering Heavens Heart Master was.

But that was beside the point!

His eyes lit up and he asked. "So it can be finished today?"

[Indeed.]

[Yes]

[Depending on the... Ah, I don’t have the energy to explain, so, yes]

[Fairy Silver Star Sage: Yes! Yes!]

Being in a body without any cultivation was like having both her hands tied behind her back. She could not wait to stimulate the energy in her body and gain back, even if it were merely a tiny little fraction, of her power!

"Great." Xiao Shen had the corners of his lips curl up into a smile. He doubled his steps and headed straight for his dorms.

***

Liang Yang, Dong Wang, and Xue Waoming were all at the Jiang family mansion attending to the cocktail party, making it so that the room was empty. He was lucky to have not run into anyone during the process of entering into his room, especially as he was carrying a sickly beauty in his arms who looked unconscious at nighttime. It really did look like a kidnap, or, at least, an assault, both of which would lead to him having to make a visit to the police uncles.

"Alright, we’re here." Xiao Shen sighed and gently put down Fairy Silver Star Sage’s body on his bed. He initially wanted to put her on the table, but, with the way she looked, doing so would make him recall a time he visited the medical student’s classroom and saw a corpse slung out on the table. It was darn creepy, even though he had to fight the urge to poke it.

[Home sweet home]

[Back to base]

[Fairy Silver Star Sage: Eh? This is your Immortal Cave?]

[Fairy Wuthering Heavens Heart Master: No, this is something called a ’Dormitory’. You must have been inactive for at least two thousand years to not know this!]

[Two thousand years ago, the university of Alexandria was already there. The Arcane Scribe practicioners there already ran a school system]

[Senior Silver Star Sage, you haven’t seen anything yet! Just wait until Anchor goes to take a bath!]

[Fairy Silver Star Sage: ....]

Xiao Shen twitched the corners of his lips and pulled out the ginseng from where he had hid it beneath his bed and placed it on the table. He looked up at the ceiling and said. "Alright, so what do I do?"

[Slice it!]

[Dice it!]

[Chew it raw]

[Anchor, it would be best to boil it whole!]

[Refine it first by wiping out it’s will]

[Fairy Silver Star Sage: indeed you must refine it first... F*CK! Anchor has no spiritual energy!]

[Fairy Wuthering Heavens Heart Master: Eh? You can say f*ck? How do you know that word if you don’t even know what dorms are?]

[Fairy Silver Star Sage: Anchor had said it and it seemed like the perfect word to express all emotions]

Xiao Shen sighed and rubbed his forehead. "Guys, be serious!"

He was constantly on alert lest police officer uncles suddenly came along and burst his door open. He looked around and involuntarily twitched the corners of his lips.

If the police were to come, he would most likely get a life sentence with no trial, if such a thing was possible!

On his bed, the young miss of the influential Jiang family laid half unconscious from drinking too much. Her dress had been slightly hiked up, revealing a bit of fair white thighs. Also, she was missing from her home and was probably being searched for.

Meanwhile, his bank account was suddenly swimming in millions.

If one put two and two together, would they not assume that he had been kidnapping people and collecting ransom money??

[Yeah, yeah, you must refine the ginseng first]

[Trolling_makes_me_happy.jpg]

Happy your sister!

Xiao Shen cursed in his heart as that message went past his eyes.

[Every living creature has a soul inside of it. Some souls are dormant, like in plants, and active like in animals and humans]

[Theoretically, aren’t humans also animals?]

[Bah, the Will is the way a plant’s soul can manifest. It contains their desire for life and the will to live]

[Fairy Wuthering Heavens Heart Master: The Will of the ginseng must be destroyed before you can use it]

Xiao Shen pursed his lips slightly.

Why does this feel so much like a lecture??

[Fairy Silver Star Sage: Use blood! Blood can replace spiritual energy when used with the methods of conquering Wills!]

Hmm...

Xiao Shen frowned slightly and lowered his head to look at the ginseng. "I just pour my blood on it??"

He took the kitchen knife and made a small cut on tip of his finger before letting the blood drip on to the ginseng.

He shrugged his shoulders and looked up. "What next?"

[Fairy Silver Star Sage: Anchor, why did you not use the Will Devouring method? All that blood is now wasted! ]

Xiao Shen was dumbstruck.

Eh? I was only a normal university student, how am I supposed to know about some Will Devouring Method!

He spread out his hands and sighed. "Meh, stuff happens. Is there any other method??]

[... Well, the demonic faction also had created a substitute method for the process]

[Is it the beating?]

[It should be the Demonic Faction’s Ten Palms technique!]

"Oh, there’s a second method?" Xiao Shen’s eyes lit up.

[Ahem... Anchor, there is indeed]

[Fairy Silver Star Sage: The Attacking Souls method?]

[It is indeed that method]

"Attacking souls method?" Xiao Shen said as he raised a brow and tilted his head slightly.

[You would have to infiltrate it’s soul and have a battle of souls against it]

Xiao Shen blinked and looked at the ginseng on the table. "It’s a ginseng."

He was supposed to have a soul battle with a plant root, WTF?!

How was that even possible!

[Right. If you lose, it would be troublesome to have a ginseng take over your body]

[True]

Xiao Shen... did not even know what expression to have on his face.

They wanted him to have a soul duel with a ginseng. And they believed that there was a probability that he would lose...

What kind of development was that?!

[But, to do so, Anchor would also need to have the corresponding technique, if not, it would be impossible to infiltrate the ginseng’s soul]

[Bah, Anchor, just beat it up until you feel like it can no longer resist!]

[And put your blood on it first!]

[Fairy Wuthering Heavens Heart Master: Hmm. That just might work... But, seriously, no one knows the corresponding techniques so that we can gift it to Anchor??]

[Fairy Silver Star Sage: I do, but it’s an innate skill of mine]

Xiao Shen frowned in thought for a moment and asked. "If its an innate skill, then that means it follows your consciousness and not your body, right? What if I use your blood??"

[Fairy Silver Star Sage: Right! Why didn’t I think of it. Try it! Try it!]

Xiao Shen nodded and walked over to Fairy Silver Star Sage’s body lying pliant on his bed. He raised the knife and pondered on where exactly he would cut.

[Aiyah~]

[This scene is quite spicy to the eye~]

[Anchor, take caution and don’t get distracted!]

Xiao Shen was not a medical student and neither was he a chef. He was simply a guy who had no experience with knives at all.

If he cut too light, too little blood would be drawn.

If he cut too deep, too much blood would be drawn.

Hmm...

Xiao Shen frowned as he raised her arm. Then, he used the knife to deeply prick her flesh.

However, instead of crimson red blood, a black liquid began flowing out of the wound. This liquid was very dark, but had specks of light like a galaxy or universe. It seemed to contain several laws of...

BANG!

Xiao Shen suddenly head a loud bursting sound!

He was feeling very tired right now. "What a f*cking day!"
