The next morning, Su Xiaonuan got up a bit late because of a night of passion, and it wasn't until after she'd hurried to work that Shen Qiang rolled out of bed, feeling refreshed and clear-headed.
After quickly freshening up, he ca downstairs to find that Ye Xiaolei had already prepared breakfast.
Shen Qiang sampled the food and found it quite good.
According to Qian Shanxue, her cooking skills, though far inferior to Shen Qiang's, were still much better than that of a typical restaurant chef.
Shen Qiang thought this assessnt was fair.
After a simple breakfast,
he dressed up a bit, and then a late Ali finally showed up in the dining room.
Her tardiness displeased Qian Shanxue, "Ali, you shouldn't make everyone wait for you."
Ali arched an eyebrow, "Can't help it, I didn't want to either, but I had a terrible sleep last night."
Qian Shanxue frowned, "I think the rooms at Shen Qiang's place are very comfortable, much better than ordinary hotels."
Ali snorted coldly, "Well, it is a mansion worth tens of millions. There's certainly no problem with comfort, but so people, they have no sha. They were screaming so loud last night, if one didn't know any better, they might think they were staying at a breeding station."
Qian Shanxue fell silent for a good three seconds, then got up and walked out without a word.
Ye Xiaolei's pretty face instantly turned red as an apple, and after a mont of flustered hesitation, she also left the dining room without uttering a word, following after Qian Shanxue.
Shen Qiang felt a bit embarrassed, but upon reflection, sothing about the situation seed off.
Damn, this is my own house. I like to scream; what's it to her?
"If you don't like it, you can find a hotel to stay in," said Shen Qiang impassively, raising an eyebrow, "Understand? I'm under no obligation to host you."
Ali ignored Shen Qiang, continuing to eat her food and retorted, "Ha, if it weren't for the colonel coming here, I wouldn't even want to co when you begged to."
This remark really annoyed Shen Qiang.
Dammit, eating my food, staying in my house, and still acting ungrateful. If it wasn't for the fact that Ali was just a hurt little girl, Shen Qiang truly wanted to give her a piece of his mind.
But he decided to let it go.
After all, he'd already promised Qian Shanxue that they'd be there for at most a week, after which they could go wherever they were supposed to go.
So taking it hard with Ali would just make Shen Qiang look small.
"Rember to wash the dishes after you're done eating."
Having said that, Shen Qiang left the dining room and headed to the plantation downstairs.
The various Lingzhi mushrooms in the plantation were thriving happily.
But before Shen Qiang could pay them much attention, the voice of the Spirit Corpse Golden Cicada rang out in his mind, "Master, master, I've succeeded."
Shen Qiang was taken aback, then a surge of elation filled his heart.
He knew that the Daluo Heavenly Tribulation Heart Sutra, which had cost him 150 million, was bought to make the Golden Cicada stronger. Since acquiring that Demon Cultivation Secret Manual, however, too many unexpected things had happened.
The biggest surprise was the Plague Source. Through the cultivation of the Daluo Heavenly Tribulation Heart Sutra, Shen Qiang had managed to collect all three strains of influenza virus—Type A, B, and C.
Besides that, he also obtained the Pneumococcus.
Not only that, based on observations over the past few days, it is very likely that after having cultivated the Daluo Heavenly Tribulation Heart Sutra, the Plague Source will grow three new leaves every ti, aning its capacity for bacterial strains has tripled.
Beyond that, the propagation of the Purple Vine has been successful.
Qi Gathering Powder.
Assignnts, newcors, as well as the Dual Cultivation with Qingxuan, all made Shen Qiang, almost forget about the Spirit Corpse Golden Cicada's cultivation.
Moreover, since the Golden Cicada's cultivation had shown no response for several days, Shen Qiang had almost lost hope that it could cultivate the Daluo Heavenly Tribulation Heart Sutra.
But unexpectedly, just as he arrived at the plantation, he heard such good news.
"Aweso!"
Almost simultaneously with Shen Qiang's ecstatic praise,
a flash of golden light appeared before Shen Qiang's eyes, and a girl with tender and polished skin, like that of a young girl, possessing beautiful fluffy long hair and a beautiful face, yet only the size of a finger, appeared before Shen Qiang.
"So beautiful..." Shen Qiang, astonished, stretched out his hand, looking at the exquisite little girl who perched cutely in his palm with wings spread behind her, hesitantly saying, "Are you the Golden Cicada?"
The Golden Cicada in Shen Qiang's palm, seeing him looking her up and down, said cutely, "Replying to master, it is indeed the Golden Cicada."
Shen Qiang was a bit dumbfounded, "Uh, how did you beco like this?"
The Golden Cicada in Shen Qiang's palm, bowing her head and seemingly shy to look at Shen Qiang, spoke softly, "After the Golden Cicada cultivated the Daluo Heavenly Tribulation Heart Sutra, it turned into this."
Shen Qiang couldn't stop smiling, his eyes gleaming even brighter.
"What a treasure! Truly worthy of the 150 million value of the 'Daluo Heavenly Tribulation Heart Sutra,' a top Demon Cultivation Secret Manual, not only did it enable the Plague Source to evolve smoothly, it also made the Golden Cicada undergo an evolution."
"You should know, for Demon Cultivators, they need to possess strength equivalent to that of a Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator or above to possibly transform into human form,"
"And now, the Golden Cicada has already taken human form, doesn't that an her Cultivation level is at least Nascent Soul Stage or above? If so, a Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator probably wouldn't be her match."
Shen Qiang, excited, urged, "Quick, enter your master's Sea of Consciousness, I want the Plague Source to make a few copies of you."
The Golden Cicada imdiately agreed.
The next mont, she appeared in Shen Qiang's Sea of Consciousness with him.
Upon seeing the Golden Cicada, Qingxuan was shocked.
But Shen Qiang had no mood to discuss the Golden Cicada with her; his eyes shone brightly as he looked at the Plague Source, saying, "Good son, quickly make a few new evolved versions for your sister Golden Cicada."
In an instant, the Golden Cicada was swallowed by the Plague Source, but in less than three seconds, the Plague Source spat her out again with a 'pfft'.
Afterward, the Plague Source indicated that it couldn't consu the Golden Cicada, as it couldn't control her evolution, nor make any copies of her.
Shen Qiang was astonished, feeling a slight sense of loss.
But then he was ecstatic.
Because this ant that the Golden Cicada had moved beyond the category of a Spirit Corpse Golden Cicada and was advancing towards becoming a Demon Immortal—a wonderful thing!
This indicated that as the Golden Cicada continued to cultivate the Daluo Heavenly Tribulation Heart Sutra, she would only beco stronger and stronger.
"No worries." Shen Qiang reassured the slightly downhearted Plague Source with a smile, and then, with excited eyes, he turned to the Golden Cicada, "Golden Cicada, you've done well. To celebrate the success of your cultivation of the Daluo Heavenly Tribulation Heart Sutra, tell , what reward you would like? Your master will certainly do his best to fulfill your wish."
The Golden Cicada's eyes imdiately lit up; she looked at Shen Qiang sowhat nervously, hesitated for a mont, and then said, "If possible, the Golden Cicada would like a set of clothes."
