Reborn with a Space: Building a Fortune Amidst Famine

Chapter 909: Chapter 909: Forming the Master-Servant Bond

Isn’t this the news I just mentioned? Is this thinking of breaking away from everyone and having it all to oneself? How can that be allowed?

Luo Yinghui no longer has any affection for Tan Shaoting like a woman would. Her heart is filled with dislike for him.

Tan Shaoting knows that Luo Yinghui is trailing him, and he is truly annoyed with people like her.

But due to the karma between the Shushan Sect and their family, he can’t take action yet, which makes Tan Shaoting feel very frustrated.

But how to get rid of her? Even if I return now, this annoying woman will surely keep an eye on me in the future.

Forget it, let her follow if she wants. If anything unexpected happens, it has nothing to do with me.

Tan Shaoting’s speed is incredibly fast. The Cultivation Technique he obtained last time has already been practiced to the First Layer. This movement technique is indeed very practical.

Luo Yinghui, following behind, thought to herself angrily. Why is Tan Shaoting, who doesn’t have as high cultivation as I do, so fast? So she chased after him determinedly, unwilling to believe she couldn’t catch up.

As they approached the interior, it was already dark. Tan Shaoting had been here several times. The long-armed ape had also told him about the terrain and road conditions here, so he continued onward at night.

He could manage, but Luo Yinghui couldn’t. At night, the danger is considerable, and she had already lost track of Tan Shaoting. What is he doing? She stopped out of anger, set up an array, and went inside to rest.

She didn’t have much Spiritual Power left. If she encountered demon beasts now, it would really be difficult. This was not a time to show off.

Tan Shaoting had already reached the long-armed ape’s territory and released his Divine Sense, quickly discovering the ape’s current condition—it was not good. What happened?

He ran swiftly to the ape’s location and saw it covered in wounds, barely clinging to life.

”What happened?” Tan Shaoting said, taking out a Recovery Pill, which should work for even apes.

He placed it in the ape’s mouth and gave it some Spiritual Spring Water.

The long-armed ape let Tan Shaoting do as he pleased, swallowing the Elixir and drinking the Spiritual Spring Water.

”With your current state, advancing should be a natural thing. Why is this happening?”

Tan Shaoting also took out external injury medicine to treat its wounds.

The long-armed ape recovered somewhat. ”My cultivation didn’t rise but fell. This is unacceptable by the heavens,” it sighed with a very human-like attitude.

”Then take good care of your injuries. By the way, it’s too dangerous here for you. Someone has already noticed you.”

”There’s nothing I can do about it. I have a request: if I’m still alive when the secret realm opens, take me inside.

I should go back. I always think the sky outside is more expansive, but I still don’t have the courage to leave this mountain. I’m still confined to this space.

I should go back. Now, I probably won’t feel lonely like before.”

”Are you sure you won’t be forcibly ejected after the secret realm closes?”

The long-armed ape was stunned. It hadn’t actually considered this possibility.

”Let’s try. If it works, it works; if not, so be it. Also, take the Vermilion Fruit Tree with you. Otherwise, things here will get chaotic.”

”Why don’t you come with me?”

The long-armed ape shook its head and slowly sat up. ”I can’t leave this place. Don’t worry, even if my cultivation matches yours, I’ll be fine. After you take the Vermilion Fruit Tree, I’ll leave here,

Actually, I have a place to hide. Visit me before the secret realm opens again.”

”How will you go in with me?”

”If necessary, I’ll recognize you as my master. That way, I can follow you in. Once inside, you can set me free. There, I know my way around.”

Tan Shaoting thought for a moment. ”Why don’t you recognize me as your master now? I’ll take you back to recover in my place, which is very safe.”

The long-armed ape still shook its head. ”No need. You go ahead and leave quickly. Don’t come over even if you hear any news later. I’ll be fine. If I hide, they won’t find me.”

”You’re oversimplifying things. The Beast Taming Sect has people in the workshop. When the time comes, you’ll be defenseless. Think it over. I’ll take the Vermilion Fruit Tree now,

I’ll give this thing to the Shushan Sect. It counts as me repaying our mutual karma.”

”It’s yours; the decision is yours.”

Tan Shaoting went to the Vermilion Fruit Tree, collected it directly, and placed it into the space. Honestly, it couldn’t fit into the Jade Box anyway.

After checking there was nothing left behind, he went back to find the long-armed ape.

”Can I trust you?”

Tan Shaoting shrugged, ”It’s up to you. Actually, recognizing me as your master during the secret realm opening or now makes no difference.”

”You’re right. Alright, I’ll recognize you as my master now. I hope I don’t cause you trouble.”

”Hmm, you can recover and cultivate in the Spirit Beast Bag; it won’t affect me.

You should return to your normal state before entering the secret realm; otherwise, you might not fare well.”

Tan Shaoting was familiar with the master recognition array; he had used it once for the young woman and the Vajra Rat, and it worked fine.

After the acknowledgment process was complete, Tan Shaoting’s body shivered for a moment. He suddenly felt as if this Wolf Tooth Mountain Secret Realm had acknowledged him as its master. Could the long-armed ape have some connection to the secret realm?

”Here are the injury medicine and the Spiritual Spring Water. Enter the Spirit Beast Bag,

I’m about to leave. Someone came here with me, and it’ll be troublesome when daylight comes.”

Tan Shaoting put away the long-armed ape, then placed the Spirit Beast Bag into the space before turning to leave.

In the early morning, he noticed Luo Yinghui’s array and carefully skirted around it as he hurried home.

By dawn, he had already entered the workshop.

Just as he returned home, he heard a notification from the array.

It turned out to be from the Shushan Sect. Tan Shaoting still went out.

”Senior Brother, please come in. The three children are cultivating right now, sorry for the lack of hospitality.”

”Junior Brother Tan, it’s not necessary. I just wanted to ask if you’ve seen Senior Sister?”

Tan Shaoting frowned. ”Senior Sister came by yesterday morning, but we only exchanged a few words at the door before she left. As for where she went afterwards, I don’t know.”

”Senior Sister didn’t return last night and left no message.”

Tan Shaoting sneered inwardly. This person is just so selfish, surely thinking she went to get some benefit, and followed me for that reason. It’s unclear if she wanted to keep it all to herself or share it with me.

But she didn’t inform the fellow disciples she brought along, people like her Tan Shaoting truly looks down upon. Yes, most cultivators are selfish, guided by the principle that people should look out for themselves, but such extreme examples like her are rare.
