Chapter 12 - Chapter 12 Reading ten thousand books makes one's writing flow like a god's.

  In the northeastern forest of the Demon Beast Mountain Range,

  the Amethyst Winged Lion King carried a bag of fruit to the brewing vat. At his master's request, he gradually learned the brewing process, spending most of his time brewing peach blossom wine for his master, aside from cultivation.

  The little Amethyst Winged Lion King naturally followed behind his father, also carrying a large bag.

  His father had said that as long as he worked hard, he would receive a reward from his master, thus obtaining a Transformation Pill and transforming into human form as soon as possible.

  Therefore, the little Amethyst Winged Lion King worked exceptionally diligently every day.

  Little Fairy Doctor, having deeply inherited her master's teachings, sat upright in the bamboo pavilion, reading and studying. "The saying 'there are golden houses in books' is truly fascinating. It's amazing that my master has collected so many extinct books."

  "Uncle, aren't you going to read?"

  The Amethyst Winged Lion King turned around, pursing his lips. "We don't have your human patience. Cultivation is difficult enough, let alone reading."

  Little Fairy Doctor rested her chin on her right hand, smiled, and continued reading, especially her master's autobiography, from which she benefited greatly.

  In just a few days, she felt an impending breakthrough, much faster than if she had taken poison.

  Space tore open, and Jiang Cheng stepped out.

  The Amethyst Winged Lion King ran over, bowing respectfully: "Master, you're back."

  "Master," Little Fairy Doctor also put down her book and bowed.

  Jiang Cheng nodded, then noticed the autobiography on the table. "This autobiography is just something I wrote casually; it won't be of much help to your cultivation. I'll write one for you myself sometime."

  "Really?"

  Little Fairy Doctor's eyes lit up, and she thanked him repeatedly. "Thank you, Master."

  "Really? Since you're cultivating here, I certainly won't mistreat you."

  Jiang Cheng patted Little Fairy Doctor's head, then stood with his hands behind his back, gazing at the endless green mountains and clear waters. "Reading ten thousand books will eventually make you a sage; this is what all scholars pursue and aspire to."

  "In the future, you must cultivate diligently and strive to break through to the Dou Huang realm. I will also provide you with the required poison pills according to the proportion."

  "Yes, thank you, Master. I, Little Fairy Doctor, will never let you down in this life!"

  Little Fairy Doctor bowed respectfully, her eyes filled with reverence.

  Jiang Cheng's fingers twitched slightly, and a jar of wine slowly flew over.

  Little Fairy Doctor, being sensible, filled her master's cup with wine and stood obediently behind him, awaiting his instructions.

  Jiang Cheng pointed at the little amethyst winged lion king and said, "Hey, don't use your feet! Your master doesn't like peach blossom wine that's been stomped on."

  "Ah..." The little amethyst winged lion king quickly pulled back its paw stuck in the peach, awkwardly licking the water off it. During the time its master was away, it had been stomping on it with its feet...

  Did its master prefer using a young girl's feet?

  The amethyst winged lion king grabbed its stick and swung it at

  Jiang Cheng. As the saying goes, "Spare the rod and spoil the child," and "A beating is a sign of affection, a scolding is a sign of love." Jiang Cheng smiled inwardly. Having lived alone for ten years, with the amethyst winged lion king and his son, and Little Fairy Doctor by his side, those lonely days were finally over.

  A mechanical voice echoed in his mind, and Jiang Cheng staggered. Had he gotten stuck? A whole day had passed since the mission was completed, and he was only now realizing it…

  Jiang Cheng looked at the experience points in the system, feeling helpless and frustrated. Breaking through to the second-star Dou Sheng realm was truly incredibly difficult.

  No wonder Dou Sheng experts were so rare, like rare and precious materials. Countless geniuses were blocked at each realm, which was why there were so few strong individuals on the Dou Qi Continent.

  Especially Dou Sheng level experts, they were extremely rare, like phoenix feathers and unicorn horns. Every faction's Dou Sheng was a precious gem, revered for millennia.

  It was also the realm all strong individuals aspired to, but breaking through to Dou Sheng was no easy feat. Some people never even touched the threshold in their entire lives, ultimately dying at the end of their lives.

  Jiang Cheng fanned himself with his folding fan, turning to the side and saying, "Little Fairy Doctor, do you regret coming to Peach Blossom Mountain?"

  Since this place was nameless, Jiang Cheng named it Peach Blossom Mountain.

  "Sir, you jest. I've never regretted it. Although I've only lived here for a few days, I've never felt cared for. I cherish this life and enjoy being with everyone. Uncle Huo is also very kind to me. I love it here."

  Little Fairy Doctor answered the master's question sincerely. Being able to stay here to cultivate was the happiest thing for her.

  Jiang Cheng nodded in satisfaction, about to say something more, when a fierce look appeared on his face.

  "How dare you cut down my peach tree!"

  Jiang Cheng's angry shout also attracted the attention of the Amethyst Winged Lion King. Seeing the master so angry, he frowned.

  "Sir, what's wrong?"

  "Someone is cutting down my peach tree. Let's go take a look."

  ...…

  Outside Peach Forest Mountain, several Dou Shi dressed in uniform were diligently cutting down the peach tree in front of them.

  At the front was a tall, fat man with a big head and ears. The fat man was so fat that he looked to weigh over 300 pounds, and the ground trembled when he walked.

  The fat man was holding a voluptuous woman in his arms. The woman said in a coquettish voice, "Third Commander, I love peaches. The peaches here are big and soft; they must be delicious."

  Hearing this, the fat man shuddered, almost ejaculating, but still lewdly lifted Madam Lan's chin, saying, "Even the peaches are delicious, nothing compares to you, hahaha."

  "Oh, you're so naughty," Madam Lan said shyly, "You eat them every night, aren't you satisfied?"

  "Hehe, not enough, never enough," Hermon chuckled lewdly, putting down the noodles in his hand and kissing her directly.

  That's right, this man was none other than Hermon, the third commander of the Wolf Head Mercenary Group, an eight-star warrior!

  Hermon and Madam Lan had originally intended to find the Snow Fox, but unexpectedly stumbled upon a peach orchard on the road. The peaches were big and round, so they decided to cut down a few trees to taste them.

  "The Third Regiment Commander is really something. He's out there doing all that, and we're here doing thankless work. Isn't that a bit too much of a bullying?"

  "Shh!" Another man quickly made a gesture, saying timidly, "Are you out of your mind? Saying that like that, aren't you afraid the Third Regiment Commander will hear you and tear your brother off to use as medicine?"

  "So what? He's useless anyway. I'll give him his."

  This mercenary was clearly unhappy and blurted out his angry words. But just as he was about to say something, he felt something warm welling up on his neck. Puzzled, he reached up to wipe it, only to find it was a patch of bright red blood.
