My Daily Cultivation Life with a Clumsy Female Disciple

Chapter 222

In the evening, Chasing the Wind returned to Dan Peak covered in injuries.

His nose was bruised and his face was swollen. His snow-white fur was slashed open with blood seeping out, looking extremely miserable. His tail was white but he had four little black tigers following behind, unable to retract his shadow clones due to the heavy injuries.

He limped back and found Qin Ran.

"Dad, I fought a dragon today," he said.

His mouth was slapped and had swollen up with four claw marks around his lips, making his speech even more unclear.

Seeing Chasing the Wind in this state, Qin Ran was stunned. He went out to find a poisoner that didn't exist and did this to himself?

"Where did you go?" Qin Ran quickly took out medicines for internal and external injuries and applied them on Chasing the Wind, "How did you get beaten so badly?"

Previously when Chasing the Wind fought to regain control of Dan Peak and become the boss, he would get into fights every day but it was never this serious.

"Dad, I fought a dragon today!" Although his handsome face was battered beyond recognition, you could still vaguely see his pride. He repeated multiple times, "I fought a dragon!"

He was heavily injured and very tired. He laid under the old spiritual oak tree, unable to even move his tail as Qin Ran treated his wounds.

"Dragon?" Qin Ran carefully examined Chasing the Wind's injuries. The claw marks were indeed made by four claws with remnants of dark and gold attributes. But...

"Where did this dragon come from?" He asked doubtfully, "Does the Dao Sword Sect have dragons? Or did you run to the Hengduan Mountains? I haven't heard of dragons in that area either."

"No... he said..." Chasing the Wind laid on the ground, enduring the pain with his eyes closed as he recalled, "Some kind of formation, guardian, protector beast!"

Protector beast? Qin Ran furrowed his brows. The Dao Sword Sect has a treasure like this too? That can't be!

"Dragons are sacred beasts, already above ordinary cultivators. They are existences comparable to immortals. How can the Dao Sword Sect have a sacred beast?!"

The more he thought about it, the more impossible it seemed. If the Dao Sword Sect had a sacred beast, they would have become the number one sect in Northern Chu long ago and be far ahead of the other sects. How could they suffer such grievances like they do now?

Elders being turned against them, important resources and medicines being tampered with, people plotting the future of the Dao Sword Sect...

"Is it really a dragon?" He asked Chasing the Wind for confirmation. He suspected the child had been beaten silly and was remembering things wrongly.

"Hmm?" Chasing the Wind lightly nodded his big head. It took him a while before he remembered and said, "Flood dragon!"

Only then did Qin Ran nod. While a real dragon would be impossible, a flood dragon is possible.

Dragons are sacred beasts while flood dragons are slightly inferior, probably at the ninth level demonic beast stage. If a flood dragon continues to molt and transform, it has a chance to become an actual dragon.

"Flood dragon?" He considered and felt it was still possible, but it was likely the most hidden trump card the Dao Sword Sect had.

A ninth level demonic beast like a flood dragon could rival a Great Vehicle stage cultivator. As the head of Dan Peak, even he didn't know about the existence of this flood dragon. This shows how hidden it was.

"Big brother...dragon...flood dragon..." Chasing the Wind laid on the ground mumbling these words. As he kept repeating them, he fell asleep. The little black tigers running around him also jumped onto his back to sleep.

Qin Ran cared for him like a father would... after all Qin Ran was Chasing the Wind's father. He treated his external injuries then pried open Chasing the Wind's mouth to feed him medicinal pills for internal injuries. After thoroughly checking his body inside and out, and even inspecting his soul with his spirit sense to ensure there were no lasting injuries, Qin Ran looked at the silly child and still worried he had been tricked by someone. But recalling the "big brother" he kept mentioning, he was probably not beaten up and had just acknowledged this big brother. From this perspective, perhaps that "flood dragon" did not have malicious intentions...

The next morning after Qin Ran woke up, he saw Chasing the Wind frolicking by Sword Washing Lake, bouncing around everywhere like an excited Samoyed.

It looked like his external injuries were healed and only some internal injuries remained.

Qin Ran leaned against the corridor watching as Chasing the Wind ran over and stopped on the lawn below, craning his head up excitedly to say, "Dad, I'm going to beat him up again today!"

"Beat up who?"

"The dragon!"

"Are you healed?"

"I'm healed!" Chasing the Wind opened his mouth wide to show Qin Ran his pearly white teeth, indicating he was very fierce now. When a tiger opens its mouth to bare its sharp fangs, it is indeed a terrifying sight.

"You're not healed for shit!" Qin Ran glanced at him and said, "You're not allowed to go today."

Chasing the Wind obediently responded, "Oh!"

But the next day, he eagerly ran over to ask Qin Ran again. Qin Ran still did not allow him to go.

And so it continued for the next few days.

It wasn't until the fifth day when Qin Ran examined his body and confirmed he had recovered to normal before allowing him to go "beat up that dragon."

Chasing the Wind was very excited. He had eaten a large bowl of beast nourishing pills that morning... he needed to eat his fill to have the energy to beat people up properly. After eating, he dashed out and said loudly to Qin Ran that he would beat that dragon until it collapsed today and bring it back for dad to use as a mount.

After seeing Chasing the Wind leave, Qin Ran quickly used the Watery Years stealth technique to secretly follow behind.

... How else could he be called a father if he didn't worry himself to death over his silly child being tricked?

One tiger and one man, walking one after the other, exited Dan Peak's Guardian Mountain Formation. Chasing the Wind raced down the mountain on the wind and arrived at the Dao Sword Sect's Guardian Mountain Formation in the blink of an eye.

He shouted loudly in front of the sect, "Big brother, big brother, I'm here!"

Hearing his voice, a gap opened up in the Dao Sword Sect's Guardian Mountain Formation to let him enter.

Qin Ran hid himself not too far away, watching as Chasing the Wind went inside. He sensed the gaze of the formation's owner sweep over him but the owner didn't care about his presence and took Chasing the Wind away right in front of him.

From the looks of it, that should be the "flood dragon" living inside the formation that Chasing the Wind mentioned. It clearly didn't seem malicious. Firstly, it really was living inside the Dao Sword Sect's Guardian Mountain Formation. Secondly, it wasn't trying to hide itself from Qin Ran either. The dragon was straightforward and probably just bored, wanting to find a playmate on the same level as him.

Realizing this, Qin Ran no longer paid it any attention and went back to Dan Peak... he just needed to remember to help Chasing the Wind treat his injuries.

After this, Chasing the Wind would go "beat up that dragon" every five days and return with injuries each time. However, he was still Chasing the Wind. Qin Ran noticed that his injuries became less and less severe each time and the strength and endurance of his fleshly body was visibly improving at a rapid pace. Additionally, that flood dragon also had the dark attribute so Chasing the Wind's mastery over his innate divine abilities saw immense progress as well.

Playing with that flood dragon benefited Chasing the Wind in many ways and could be considered a great opportunity.
