Harness Cultivator

After informing Zou Xiaoli to meet up with Lee Tao, Tang Lingling went back to Lee Tao's room.

"Young Master, I have informed Zou Xiaoli about you wanting to meet her." Tang Lingling said from outside the room.

"Hmm, I see… you can head back to the academy if you want." 

"I cannot do that, Young Master. My duty is to stay by your side and make sure you are safe from danger."

Lee Tao didn't bother to argue with her. "Since that's the case, then give me a shoulder massage. I've been too exhausted lately when I cured so many people."

Within a few seconds, Tang Lingling entered the room as she walked behind Lee Tao.

With her gentle care and the correct amount of strength, she began massaging his soreness away.

"When will Zou Xiaoli arrive?" Lee Tao asked.

"When I informed her about the summon, she said she was busy capturing another person on the list. Therefore, she might take around another hour or so before she can come here." Tang Lingling replied calmly.

"Is that so… then kindly place me in my bed when I fall asleep." Lee Tao mumbled as he slowly closed his eyelid.

Despite just waking up, Lee Tao still felt drowsy. 

Meanwhile, Tang Lingling held a worried expression as she realized he had fallen asleep already.

"Young Master?" Tang Lingling called out, hoping that he only closed his eyelid, but was still awake.

Alas, Lee Tao showed no response as he almost banged his head on the table if it weren't for Tang Lingling's swift action in cushioning him with her hand.

'Young Master has been getting too exhausted as of lately…' Tang Lingling thought as she decided to tell this incident to Liu Ying once she placed him back on the bed.

At first, she had just thought Lee Tao was a lazy person, but as she interacted with him more, she realized it wasn't just laziness.

With Lee Tao laying on the bed, Tang Lingling quickly took out a talisman as she dialed for Liu Ying.

"Why did you suddenly call me by a talisman, Tang Lingling?" Liu Ying's voice resounded from the talisman.

Tang Lingling recounted her experience with Lee Tao and his current condition.

When Tang Lingling finished her recounting, Liu Ying held a solemn expression as she ordered, "Keep this a secret between us, Tang Lingling. And make sure no one learns of this incident besides us." 

"O-Of course, Madam Liu. I'll make sure that no one else will learn of the Young Master's condition."

"Good, I will look into this matter. Until then, don't disturb Xiao Tao's rest. He is clever than most people and he will not want it if others meddle into his affair." 

Afterward, Liu Ying shut off their communication as she began to investigate the matter of Lee Tao being exhausted constantly.

Meanwhile, Tang Lingling held a bitter gaze as she placed her hand on Lee Tao's hand.

'Young Master… nothing can happen to you.' She prayed inwardly.

Sometime later, Lee Tao finally woke up when he noticed a warm sensation in his hand.

Tilting his head slightly, Lee Tao noticed Tang Lingling had fallen asleep with her head leaning down on his chest.

"This Tang Lingling… just how is she a servant when she used her Young Master as a bed?" Lee Tao laughed bitterly.

He then noticed her hand was clutching tightly on his, and he began to wonder if she was taking advantage of him.

"Xiao Chu, how long have I been asleep?" Lee Tao asked her through a mental transmission.

Since Tang Lingling is present in the room, Lee Tao did not want to risk revealing Xiao Chu to her.

A trump card must always stay hidden and never be shown unless necessary. 

"You have been asleep for an hour more and your health is still deteriorating." Xiao Chu replied.

Lee Tao showed no reaction when he heard Xiao Chu saying his health is deteriorating.

"I'll just need to find some good supplement to suppress my condition until I can find a solution." Lee Tao said calmly.

Panicking right now wouldn't do him any good and it's not like he hasn't seen something worse than his current situation.

Deteriorating does not mean the end, it simply means one must continue to strive forward and look for opportunity.

Xiao Chu smiled slightly when she realized he hadn't given up hopes yet.

"Then what are you going to do now, Lee Tao?" Xiao Chu asked. 

"Well, first I'm going to harness all those criminals' profound qi, then I'll probably leave the Tianyun Kingdom to find a cure." Lee Tao said as he gazed at the window.

He has been staying in the same place for fifteen years already and it was time for him to go outside to explore.

"Where will you go to find a cure?"

"I'm not sure, but I think I will most likely explore into the Sierra Desert."

"Sierra Desert huh… why do you choose the Sierra Desert out of everywhere else?"

Lee Tao held a profound gaze as he made a grasping motion.

"You were present when I was fucking my mother, right?" Lee Tao asked.

Xiao Chu kept a calm expression as she nodded her head.

"I hate to say it, but it was really annoying when your mother kept screaming in ecstasy and I can't even block the sound since you kept the necklace around your neck." Xiao Chu complained.

Lee Tao laughed heartily when he heard her complaining.

Being able to piss off Xiao Chu was a delightful event since Lee Tao knew she had been keeping a lot of secrets from him.

Alas, now was not the time to tease her as Lee Tao quickly turned serious.

"The Nirvanic Pill Recipe… my mother's ancestor was able to find that in the Sierra Desert out of all places in the vast universe." Lee Tao mumbled as he gently moved Tang Lingling aside.

He then stood up and clenched his fist. 

"Something that everyone in the Ninth Heaven wants to search for was magically in the First Heaven and in a desert no less.. Thus, I must venture there and seek out whatever treasures are hiding there."
