Chapter 1000: Powerful Bloodline

In the time that followed.

Lan Nianbing seemed to see a great opportunity to restore her cultivation and be reborn.

She racked her brains, exhausting every word of praise she had accumulated in her life.

She successfully obtained two more rewards.

They were a batch of Fifth-order Low-level Pills and a batch of Level 5 Mid-Grade Alchemist pills, respectively.

However, after Wang Jianqiang bestowed a batch of Level 5 Mid-Grade Alchemist pills upon her, no matter how much she praised him further, Wang Jianqiang only smiled and nodded, never once bringing out higher-level pills as a reward.

Lan Nianbing could not help but reflect.

After experiencing a moment of brainstorming, a flash of realization crossed her eyes.

Although this Wang Jianqiang was vain and liked to hear others flatter him.

He was not a fool; on the contrary, he was very shrewd.

The reason he gifted her the pills because of her few words of flattery was simply because these pills were not worth mentioning to him.

But when it came to the level of Fifth-order High-grade, perhaps those were pills he valued.

Naturally, he would not give them away casually just because of a few pleasant words.

She could only cater to his preferences.

Thinking of the question Wang Jianqiang had once raised when he last arrived.

She sighed secretly.

It seemed that she would not be able to avoid paying a price.

After making up her mind, she looked at Wang Jianqiang with a sincere expression, "Master is heroic and extraordinary, with infinite charm. From the first moment Bing'er saw Master, I felt an impulse to follow you, but I was too young and reckless back then, which is why I offended Master."

"For this, Bing'er has always felt guilty."

"I beg Master to punish me, otherwise Bing'er will always feel uneasy."

Hearing this, Wang Jianqiang's gaze flickered, "Oh? What kind of punishment do you want?"

Lan Nianbing said with a firm expression, "Bing'er is willing to accept any punishment from Master."

"Any?" Wang Jianqiang looked Lan Nianbing up and down with a smile.

A momentary look of unnaturalness flashed in Lan Nianbing's eyes, and then she nodded heavily.

Wang Jianqiang nodded, "You are right; as a master, I must indeed be clear in rewards and punishments."

"Originally, offending your master should be severely punished, but considering your good attitude of reflection and your initiative to admit your mistake, I will deal with it lightly."

"Master means..."

"To use one's own way to pay them back."

Ten days later.

Lan Nianbing obtained a batch of Fifth-order High-grade Perfect Pill as she wished.

At the same time, Wang Jianqiang also verified a doubt he had long held in his heart.

Afterwards, Wang Jianqiang did not lock Lan Nianbing back into the Soul Prison, but instead let her enter a Magic Treasure Necklace.

This Magic Treasure Necklace was cast entirely from crystal and was very exquisite.

Inside, it opened up an independent small world, like a low-spec version of the Spirit God Ring.

Lan Nianbing could enter it to cultivate and recover normally.

His gifting of the Perfect Pill to Lan Nianbing was not a momentary impulse.

Now that the Eight Continents Outside the Realm were eyeing them covetously, the gap between the Immortal Abandoned Land and the Outside the Realm was too vast.

He had to find a way to improve the strength of the Immortal Abandoned Land.

Only then could they have more power to resist when the experts from Outside the Realm descended.

Lan Nianbing, this former Great Vehicle Stage Cultivator, was undoubtedly a huge potential help.

However, a Great Vehicle Stage Cultivator was too powerful.

Even though he had already practiced the complete Beast Taming Art and had cultivated the complete Beast Taming Art to the highest realm.

He still did not have the confidence to completely control her.

For the sake of safety.

That was why he only gave her the pills below Fifth-order High-grade that she needed.

These pills could only support Lan Nianbing in recovering to Spirit Transformation Stage Perfection at most.

At this level, he still had full confidence in controlling her.

As for Lan Nianbing's further recovery...

He planned to wait until Xiaobai was successfully reborn before proceeding.

By then.

With the reborn Xiaobai by his side, even if Lan Nianbing fully recovered and broke free from his Dharma Seal Restriction, he would not need to worry in the slightest.

He wore the necklace that Lan Nianbing inhabited around his neck.

Just as he was about to cultivate, he suddenly noticed that the Restriction outside his residence had been triggered.

His Spirit Sense spread out, and a rich smile immediately appeared on his face.

With a thought, the Restriction outside the residence opened.

"Squeak, squeak."

A moment later.

A green light suddenly flashed, and in the blink of an eye, a figure had already appeared on Wang Jianqiang's shoulder.

It was a green bird-beast.

Its coat of cyan feathers was soft and smooth, with each feather seemingly radiating a faint luster.

"Long time no see, Little Chick."

Wang Jianqiang looked at the bird-beast on his shoulder with a beaming smile.

"Zhi zhi~"

Little Chick flapped its wings joyfully, responding happily.

Sensing Little Chick's aura, Wang Jianqiang raised an eyebrow.

Tenth-Order Will Stage!

He had thought this little fellow's bloodline might be quite extraordinary, but upon seeing that Little Chick had surpassed the limit of the Ninth-Order Will Stage purely through its own innate talent, he still could not help but feel a wave of surprise.

One must know.

Long Er, who possessed the Divine Dragon Bloodline, was only able to reach such a level of talent after his strenuous guidance.

Doesn't this mean...

Little Chick's Bloodline Power is even stronger than Long Er's!

Thinking of this, Wang Jianqiang's eyes flashed.

A bird-beast bloodline capable of rivaling or even surpassing the Divine Dragon Bloodline?

And it is born with the ability to control flames...

Could this little fellow have the Phoenix bloodline?

Once this speculation appeared, it took deep root in Wang Jianqiang's mind.

Aside from the Phoenix bloodline, he could not think of any other Bloodline Power that better fit Little Chick's current state.

Never did he expect Little Chick to actually have the Phoenix bloodline, and by the looks of it, its bloodline concentration was likely even higher than Long Er's!

If it could be further refined through the Jade Purification Art, what would that even be like?

"Zhi zhi zhi zhi~~"

Just then, Little Chick's chirping came again.

The sound was full of indignation.

Wang Jianqiang was stunned, his expression turning stern, "What do you mean 'forgot about you after seeing a pretty girl'?"

"Who instilled these messy ideas into you?"

"That's called being unable to walk after seeing a pretty girl; did I forget about you? The first person I wanted to see when I returned to the Junzi Sect was you."

"The reason I delayed until now is because... um... Dong Yue and the others were slacking off in their cultivation."

"Your master here has always been eager to help others, of noble character, tall and mighty, heroic and extraordinary..."

"Am I the kind of person who wouldn't take the initiative to help when a companion is in trouble?"

"Hmm?"

Speaking to this point, Wang Jianqiang paused, staring straight at Little Chick.

Little Chick was stunned, then shook its little head, "Zhi zhi."

Seeing this, Wang Jianqiang showed a look of satisfaction, "Isn't that right?"

"Dong Yue and the others encountered difficulties in their cultivation, so I had to spend a great deal of time helping them solve their problems."

"That is why I couldn't come to see you in time."

Upon hearing this, Little Chick nodded.

Seemingly feeling Wang Jianqiang's regard, the resentment in its eyes vanished completely, replaced by joy as it happily rubbed against Wang Jianqiang's neck.
