Xia Feng was a little impressed when the little piglet said it could find the true form of that White Demon Spirit.
This time it was actually useful. As for what use the White Demon Spirit had, that was something only the Holy Realm knew in the past. Let’s find the White Demon Spirit first.
"Then take me to find it," Xia Feng gestured.
"Okay, Master, please follow me." After the little piglet spoke, it flew towards the East City district in the opposite direction.
"Isn't this white mist in the West City district? Why are you going to the East City district?" Xia Feng followed the little piglet, asking with some confusion.
"This is its shrewdness. I can't remember its use right now, but it can definitely be of great use." The little piglet explained as it led Xia Feng towards the East City district.
Xia Feng didn't say much upon hearing this, and simply followed behind the little piglet.
Upon arriving at the East City district, it was quiet and peaceful, with no signs of anything amiss.
The little piglet came here and pointed to a residential area, saying, "Master, I can feel it is inside."
"Mm." Xia Feng responded and directly descended towards the residential area.
This was a very ordinary house, belonging to a very ordinary family.
As soon as Xia Feng arrived at the house, he could hear voices from within:
"You must study hard. We cannot cultivate, so we can only take the scholarly path. Your sister will have to rely on you in the future. You're not young anymore, listen to your parents, understand?"
"Got it, Big Sister." A young boy's voice came out.
"Big Sister, can I ask you a favor? Can I touch that little pet you found? It looks so cute."
The boy then made his request, wanting to touch the pet his big sister had found from somewhere.
It was round and plump, with white fluffy fur, looking so cute.
The little boy was entirely focused on the little pet, with no intention of studying.
"No. Before you finish your studies, don't think about anything else. Big Sister is a woman; otherwise, I would have gone to take the civil service examination long ago." The woman refused sternly.
The scholarly path was different from other places. It only accepted males and was dedicated to academic research. This was the only path for ordinary people to rise in status.
If one made a name for themselves in the scholarly path, perhaps their descendants would have the opportunity to be exposed to cultivation and become true cultivators.
They were just ordinary people living in the Divine Realm. Although they naturally had lifespans of thousands of years, thousands of years in the Divine Realm were but a blink of an eye for cultivators.
Everyone wanted to strive to become the powerful individuals admired by everyone in the Divine Realm.
No one wanted to remain just an ordinary person forever.
Just like countless office workers who dreamed of one day becoming rich like Jack Ma, someone who was indifferent to money.
Those who truly claimed to have no desires are merely slackers making excuses for their laziness.
People strive for higher places, just as water flows downwards.
Every ordinary person harbored a persistent desire to become a strong individual.
"Big Sister, with your talent, even the Sect Master of the scholarly path cannot compare to you." The little boy spoke, his eyes full of admiration.
Xia Feng, listening to the siblings' conversation from outside, revealed a faint smile.
White Demon Spirit...
Great wisdom often appears foolish...
This is not an arrangement 'I' made for myself?
This is truly ridiculous.
Including the White Demon Spirit inside, it must also be of great use to me, and 'I' sent it here.
Then the little piglet just happened to be able to sense the White Demon Spirit's presence.
What a perfectly seamless arrangement.
Laotian Guan's suggestion to enter the Magic Ancient City → the appearance of the White Demon Spirit → the recovery of the little piglet's memory → the appearance of Great Wisdom Appearing Foolish.
This entire process was tightly orchestrated, and Xia Feng felt like a tool, going wherever he was directed.
However, it didn't matter. Fortunately, it was 'myself' arranging for myself.
If it were someone else controlling me, it wouldn't feel this way.
Xia Feng walked to the door and knocked.
As the knock sounded, the room instantly fell silent. The woman inside, with a hurried voice, asked somewhat cautiously, "Who is it?"
At this late hour, the door was inexplicably knocked upon; anyone would feel uneasy.
Moreover, the city had been somewhat unsettled recently, and a curfew was in effect at night.
"Excuse me, I mean no harm. The White Demon Spirit you found is my pet, and I've come to take it away." Xia Feng knew they were ordinary people inside, so he spoke in a very gentle tone.
He couldn't scare the young girl and the child.
Besides, the White Demon Spirit was arranged for himself by 'himself,' so Xia Feng wasn't exactly lying when he said he was coming to take it away.
The woman inside glanced at the small round ball sleeping in her arms and asked doubtfully, "Then tell me, how many lines are on its head?"
Huh?
How many lines on its head?
Who would know that?
Just as Xia Feng was about to use his divine sense to scan, he saw the woman tightly holding the White Demon Spirit in her arms, deliberately blocking it.
If Xia Feng insisted on using his divine sense, it wouldn't be about seeing how many lines there were, but about seeing the little white rabbit.
So... Xia Feng gave up.
See no evil.
"Are you still there? Why aren't you speaking?" Seeing that Xia Feng outside didn't respond, the woman asked again.
Xia Feng thought for a moment and then smiled, "I'll go find your City Lord to speak with you. Please wait."
Xia Feng then leaped towards the City Lord's mansion.
