Chapter 377: Yaoguang Space

"Fine, I know it's yours." Cang Li said, "No one else is competing with you."

Yuan Yao put all the gifts back into her storage space, then let out a light hum, "Third senior brother, you still have the nerve to say that? Do you have any idea who tried to snatch my birthday gifts when I was six?"

Cang Li said, "Stealing a bite of yours, how have you remembered it until now? You stingy brat."

"Just stingy." Yuan Yao slightly lifted her chin.

Cang Li: "…Hehe."

At that moment, Qian Jueshan raised his hand, and a floating light starry bracelet materialized on his palm; he handed the bracelet to Yuan Yao.

"Yaoyao, happy birthday." Qian Jueshan smiled gently and said.

Yuan Yao's eyes shone as she looked at her own master; she extended both hands, swiftly taking the cool‑emitting bracelet, and replied, "Thank you, master!"

When her fingertips touched the bracelet's surface, a chill spread from the tips throughout her body, feeling immensely comfortable and pleasant.

Standing aside, Ying Wuji and Cang Li glanced at the bracelet and immediately recognized what treasure it was.

Qian Jueshan gazed quietly at Yuan Yao, his eyes full of indulgent affection.

Then he began to explain to Yuan Yao, "I know you have already formed a contract with other spirit beasts, but considering possible inconveniences later, I specially obtained this sacred instrument for you. It is called the Yaoguang Bracelet, which contains a small sesame‑sized space that can house many beings to reside and cultivate within."

Yuan Yao felt a slight shock.

She lowered her eyes to the starry totem bracelet in her hand, discovering that it actually contained a sesame‑sized space!

"Can a person enter it?" Yuan Yao asked, her face full of anticipation, looking at her master.

Qian Jueshan lightly nodded, "Yes."

He paused, then continued, "If you contract with this Yaoguang Bracelet, then the Yaoguang Bracelet will be at your command. However, only the spirit beasts or spirits you have contracted with can freely enter and exit at your will; any spirit or being without a contract with you will require you to expend your spiritual energy and mental power to send it out."

Xiao Lingwei raised an eyebrow, "So, easy to enter, hard to leave."

Qian Jueshan nodded.

Yuan Yao suddenly understood, and couldn't help touching the Yaoguang Bracelet.

She looked up, overjoyed, and said, "Thank you, master, I really like it. Moreover, this Yaoguang Bracelet matches my name perfectly!"

"Master, may I enter the Yaoguang Bracelet's sesame space?"

Qian Jueshan replied, "Your mortal body cannot enter, but you can manifest a spiritual awareness body to go into the sesame space."

Yuan Yao smiled, "Alright!"

"Let's contract this Yaoguang Bracelet first." Qian Jueshan chuckled, his brows and eyes full of indulgent amusement.

Yuan Yao nodded.

Then she gently sliced her fingertip, a drop of bright red blood flowing down the tip, landing precisely on the mysterious Yaoguang Bracelet.

In an instant, a strange force surged from the Yaoguang Bracelet, swirling like a vortex and tightly coiling around her finger.

At the same time, a dazzling, striking light suddenly flared.

As the light gradually subsided, she clearly felt an invisible thread linking her to the Yaoguang Bracelet, tightly connected.

She projected her spiritual awareness into the Yaoguang Bracelet, wanting to investigate.

When her spiritual awareness entered the interior of the Yaoguang Bracelet, the scene before her left her astonished.

Because the space here is enormous, it should be about half the size of the Carefree Sect!

Looking around, the grass is lush, flowers abundant, distant mountains undulating with mist, and within the hills there are forests and crystal‑clear lakes and streams…

Yuan Yao withdrew her spiritual awareness, then her eyes sparkling as she looked at Qian Jueshan, "It's so big in there!"

"Really? Let me go in and see." Cang Li, upon hearing that, got excited.

"Fine."

Yuan Yao said, then reached out to grab Cang Li's arm, sending him into the Yaoguang Space.

Cang Li hadn't had time to react when his whole body appeared on the grass within the Yaoguang Space; he was stunned for a moment, then immediately began surveying the surroundings.

"Indeed not bad." Cang Li smiled and nodded.

At the same time, Hei Long Mo Yang transmitted his voice to Cang Li, "I want to live in a place like this."

The beast pet space is pitch black, a world apart from this environment.

Mo Yang was envious.

Cang Li pressed his palms together and sighed softly, "I, a poor monk, also desire it."

Mo Yang: "…"

Mo Yang began urging, "You should ask your master to give you a sesame space as well. If your master refuses, it proves you aren't that important to him. Both are disciples; why does she get such good treatment while you don't?"

Seeing him not answer, Mo Yang assumed he thought the same and continued, "You could go cause a ruckus with your master!"

Just as he spoke, Mo Yang was summoned out by Cang Li.

Mo Yang now remains in a shrunken form, like a tiny black snake, and he was instantly bewildered.

Immediately after, Cang Li grabbed its body tightly.

"Ow ow ow, Aaa!" Mo Yang let out a harrowing scream.

Cang Li sneered, "Do you think I'm a fool? You'd better hide your little thoughts, or I'll chop you into several pieces: one for refining alchemy, one for roasting, and one minced into meat paste!"

"What minced meat paste?" Suddenly, Yuan Yao's voice came.

Cang Li turned his head and saw Yuan Yao's illusion appear nearby; she stepped forward, "Third senior brother."

"Did Mo Yang upset you?" Yuan Yao saw Cang Li holding the tiny black dragon, raised an eyebrow slightly, and poked the dragon's tense body.

Mo Yang twisted his body in pain.

Cang Li sighed helplessly, "It wants to sow discord between us."

Mo Yang didn't expect Cang Li to tell Yuan Yao that so directly.

It was startled.

"I see, then it truly deserves to be minced into meat paste!" Yuan Yao said, fuming.

Cang Li gave a light laugh, "If it dares to talk nonsense again, third senior brother will chop it up and make soup for you to drink."

Mo Yang's heart was filled with terror.

"Good." Yuan Yao nodded and smiled.

Cang Li stuffed Mo Yang back into the beast pet space like throwing trash, then said to Yuan Yao, "Take me out."

Upon hearing that, Yuan Yao's expression turned slightly odd; she reached out to grab Cang Li's wrist, intending to take him out of Yaoguang Space.

"Go!"

The two of them flashed for a moment, appearing on a tree inside Yaoguang Space.

Cang Li's foot slipped, he almost fell, but Yuan Yao was quick-eyed and quick-handed, grabbing him.

"Yuan Yao, you wouldn't..." Cang Li's pupils constricted.

"No way! Let's go!"

She guiltily interrupted his words, then pulled him, wanting to leave Yaoguang Space.

But the next instant, they fell into the lake.

Plop!

Cang Li was violently choked by a mouthful of water, and he immediately looked at Yuan Yao.

"Third senior brother, believe me!" Yuan Yao said with a solemn expression, then immediately grabbed Cang Li, intending to flash away.

As a result, they fell into a thicket of flowers.

Cang Li finally managed to catch his breath, hadn't even had time to react, and was grabbed by her like a leaf swept away by a tornado, flashing away.

Every time it failed.

They either fell into the water, or into a valley, or into the woods...

"Stop!"

"Stop!"

"Yuan Yao, do you want to kill me by making me fall?!"
