Huh? Isn't this an adventure kingdom building game?! Chapter 729 708: Yun Ying and Yun Que
After Huang Hanying suddenly glimpsed the secret of immortality in a puppet's body, she made extensive preparations, including but not limited to collecting various precious and rare materials to craft high-end puppets.
This was why she diligently ran her shop, earning money to support Huang Niu'Er, yet couldn't accumulate much wealth, so she had to budget her earnings from Spirit Stones carefully.
Her plan was ticulous. Considering that a fusion of soul and puppet might lead to mory blanks, she deliberately revealed so information about immortality to Huang Niu'Er, trying to encourage him to focus and run the small shop's business early.
This way, when her ti was up, and she voluntarily abandoned her flesh to rge with a puppet body, he could manage it on his own while taking care of the puppet body that was as blank as a sheet of paper, like herself.
In a re three to five years, Huang Hanying was confident she could regain the standard of a Puppet Master. By then, she planned to tailor a puppet for Huang Niu'Er, so when he needed it, he could abandon his body to beco an ignorant puppet, and she could train him from scratch once more.
Whether or not Huang Niu'Er's cultivation was high was irrelevant, as long as he stayed within the Market he would be relatively safe;
The business in the small shop mostly involved creating simple custom puppets that could sustain daily needs within three to five years, and she could soon recover her strength to prop up the store again.
Even if his Realm was low and his lifespan limited, there was no need to worry. With successful precedents and her comprehensive help and personal experience, he was guaranteed to succeed.
Thus, although there was no blood relationship, both individuals bound by the deepest familial bond would achieve immortality. From then on, there would be no concern about the limitation of lifespan and physical aging, guarding the small shop, with both paths safeguarded. What could be better than this in the world?
No matter how ticulous the plans were, they couldn't keep up with changes. Huang Hanying couldn't have dread that the Huang Niu'Er she raised and taught would actually...
"Mr. Jiang and everyone else, I have another request that might be presumptuous," Huang Hanying took a deep breath to calm herself and said solemnly, "After the fusion, if I retain my mory, I have nothing to say;
If I do end up with a mory blank like Miss Yun Shu, not knowing who I am, I wish to forget all past matters, especially the experience of raising Huang Niu'Er yet facing betrayal, to die alongside my body.
I wish for rebirth—not only my body, but also my mory and identity—a complete rebirth in the truest sense.
I will not even retain this na and trouble you, sir, to give a new na. I must trouble everyone to patiently guide for a while. Once I recover my strength, I will surely repay your kindness with all my effort!"
Another na to pick?!
Jiang Yuan was startled, wondering why it always had to be him, a naming novice, to give you all nas?
"Since mory may be a blank after fusion, why not discuss a new na together right now, to make sure you like it, granny," Hu Zhile, skilled at reading expressions, noticed the subtle changes in the Venerable Family's deanor, realizing it might not be right to make decisions for others, and suggested.
Both Qing Niao and Yun Mo nodded in agreent, "Right, decide on a na you like first, and it will save trouble for everyone."
Others joined in the topic, except for Leng Yutang, who cald down and stood silently by the side, filled with envy—Granny Huang would beco a puppet body with a blank mory, wouldn't it be natural for her to stay in the small courtyard?
I wish I could stay too!
The als cooked by the sir were delicious, the scenery in the small courtyard was beautiful, the Spiritual Energy was abundant, even the atmosphere among the mbers was enviably good.
How could I manage not to leave?
Finally, with the puppet successfully transford, at the peak of joy, it suddenly dawned on Leng Yutang that once the job was done, he would need to leave, and his heart suddenly fell to the bottom.
While others were filled with hope discussing joyfully, he alone bore an unshakable worry between his brows.
"Why not just do it like this!" Seeing them coming up with odd nas, Hu Zhile clapped and suggested, "Since granny wishes for a complete rebirth and also at least needs to stay in the small courtyard until she recovers her strength, she might as well follow Yun Shu and adopt a Yun surna. Keep the 'Ying' in your na and call you Yun Ying, how about that?"
Upon hearing this, Leng Yutang hurriedly interjected, "I think the na Yun Ying is great. I rember my master once told , there was an immortal nad Yun Ying, who, according to legend, t Pei Hang at Blue Bridge, used a jade pestle set as a betrothal gift, and both beca immortals at Yufeng. Borrow the aning of Immortal Energy, isn't that good luck!"
People nodded in agreent upon hearing this, the na was simple, dignified, and kept a character from the original na as a tribute, much better than Yun Mo shouting "Yellow Oriole."
Huang Hanying thought about it and agreed.
There was still so ti before lunch, and Jiang Yuan, considering he had been busy all night and all morning, rembered the little bird was still in the Star Conch Cave Mansion, so he hurried to pick it up.
The cave mansion can only be placed in water, so he walked directly to the Furong Spirit Pool, where Spiritual Energy billowed and flowed magnificently, found a suitable spot, and clicked release.
Then he jumped into the Spirit Pool and entered the cave mansion, seeing the little bird standing on a tree—sleeping?!
"Such a carefree kid, sleeping so soundly." He went closer for a look, couldn't help but smile, and didn't disturb the little bird, letting it continue to sleep.
After collecting the cave mansion, he received an exclusive renovation card, so Jiang Yuan took a stroll around the cave mansion, planning how to redecorate it.
In the five hundred square ter cave dwelling, Zeyang set up a small conch house, which was equipped with basic space technique. It was spacious, although perhaps due to his gambling addiction and financial embarrassnt, it had no decent furnishings;
Outside the conch house, there were corals and seaweeds, gently swaying in a colorful arrangent that was quite pleasing to the eye.
The little bird slept on the largest tree in the entire cave dwelling, which the system identified as a type of underwater coral from the wilderness, called the Sea Willow Tree. The branches were ticulously pruned, and beneath the tree were tables and chairs made from large shells and strange stones.
The place was filled with aquatic elents, offering a unique charm.
"Chirp chirp!" The little bird with its spiritual communication peeked its small head from under its wings, blinking as it surveyed its surroundings.
Upon seeing Jiang Yuan's figure, it excitedly jumped up flapping its wings, "Sir! Sir! We et again and again! Did you kill that nasty Fish Demon? That's wonderful, just wonderful! Oh, by the way, how are the people of East Lake Port? That night was so urgent, I was preoccupied with using my water shield to protect them from flooding and forgot to bring them food! Chirp chirp! Who would've thought the Fish Demon would be so ruthless, creating so much water..."
Its voice was clear and lodious, chattering quickly and fluently, which amused Jiang Yuan. "Speak slower, your tongue isn't on loan to be hurried back. Thanks to you, you saved all the people of East Lake Port, warning them and protecting. You did very well."
Delighted by the praise, the little bird beca even happier, "Just now you told to wait, and then..."
It smoothed the feathers on its head with its wing, blinking with a bit of confusion, "Then I seed to have fallen asleep. Weird, how did I suddenly fall asleep? I just rember the cave dwelling suddenly went dark, it's never gone dark before, always bright. Once it got dark, I was so sleepy and just slept!"
Dark? That should be the effect after putting away the cave dwelling. Apparently, creatures inside would enter a hibernation state.
"Zeyang is already dead, and we found the Mirror of Water, I also used it to collect the spilled water. Incidentally, I've settled the people of East Lake Port, maybe you can co back to see them soday." Jiang Yuan signaled for it to rest on his shoulder, casually pressing the renovation card issued from his storage bag.
[Choose a decoration set]
[Coral Sea: Underwater scenery, decorated mainly with various corals, shells, and conches, full of sea aura]
[Ghost Pirate Ship: Dark style, sleeping in the pirate ship at night with ghosts passing by, the experience is breathtaking]
...
In total, there were ten decoration sets, very much in line with the style and aesthetic of a farming ga. Most sought only to look beautiful and fun, with less regard for practicality.
He clicked each to view the previews, finally deciding on the Coral Sea set with the best value.
The layout was more reasonable than what Zeyang had done, and the configuration was more luxurious. The conch house inside was larger, the two-story building was very suitable for gradually setting up furniture to create a cozy little nest.
After all, he was counting on this movable underwater cave dwelling to serve as a landmark, helping in the search for the Sea Moon Tomb. Jiang Yuan had to ensure the renovation was both splendid and practical.
A small boat with haunting ghosts as a room was novel yet impractical, at least for the current stage, they didn't need such flashy trinkets.
He clicked on the renovation, and in just over ten seconds, the progress bar completed, and the interior of the cave dwelling was completely transford!
"Chirp chirp?" The little bird widened its eyes, tilting its head to look around, unable to understand what had happened. How did everything inside the cave suddenly change?
The conch house, coral clusters, everything sparkled, even in the corners there were small strings of bubbles rising, occasionally a beautiful little fish would swim past and disappear into the swaying seaweed.
"Let's go, I'll introduce you to everyone." Jiang Yuan was very satisfied with the new decor, leading the little spiritual bird out of the dwelling. With a click, the huge starlight shell instantly vanished.
It was stunned again, scratching its head with its wing, unable to comprehend how it was achieved.
"Qing Niao, I have a task for you." Once ashore, Jiang Yuan said to Qing Niao, who was gathered around the puppet: "There's a little birdie sister here, I'll have it continue studying to comprehend the 'Heaven-Burning Scripture' later, you can take it along to Mizhang Ridge, let it broaden its horizon and give you a little help."
Little sister?!
Upon hearing those words, Qing Niao's heart imdiately beca alert—had brother recognized another little sister? Oh no, does that an my position is at risk!
She ran over barefoot in a few quick steps, and sighed in relief seeing it was just a baby bird, unlikely to pose any threat.
"Bro, what's its na? Its aura is so weak, it's just a little Demon Beast that hasn't established its foundation yet. Bringing it might be a bit of a hassle, I have to fight monsters, chop trees, and use Ice Fla to protect it from miasma poisoning."
Na? The little bird directly ignored the second half, tilting its head and crisply saying, "Sir, I don't have a na yet, what should I do?"
Hu Zhile laughed, "What a coincidence? I just gave Granny a new na, if you want one too, how about Yun Que (Skylark)."
She joked, and Jiang Yuan imdiately decided, "Zhile's na is perfect, from now on you'll be called Yun Que. Co, let introduce you to everyone."
