I Can Transfer the Side Effects of Evil Skills-Chapter 178 - 148: Showing Off Before an Expert

Yuwen Shuo’s desperation to catch a live Celestial Eye Cloud Pattern Deer made Zou Feng seriously wonder if using its Evil Eye to make wine had been a terrible waste of a precious resource.

After all, a young master from a prominent family like him was worldly and knowledgeable; he most likely had some more fitting, ingenious use for it.

’In the end, this was it!?’

Although he couldn’t see exactly what was happening behind the boulders, the faint sounds drifting over were no longer just the strange cries of the Celestial Eye Cloud Pattern Deer—they were now mixed with Yuwen Shuo’s howls.

Wang Xingjian hadn’t been recruited by Zou Feng for the Hunting Team this time; otherwise, he and Yuwen Shuo would probably have a lot to talk about.

But then Zou Feng wondered, ’Am I being too shallow about this?’

After all, why did it have to be a Celestial Eye Cloud Pattern Deer?

With Yuwen Shuo’s background, he should be able to get his hands on any common Demon Beast. There was no reason for him to have such a special fixation on this Demon Deer.

Besides, the Celestial Eye Cloud Pattern Deer’s Evil Eye was horrifying just to look at. Under normal circumstances, there was no way anyone could get aroused.

Unable to figure it out, Zou Feng decided not to dwell on it. He turned, preparing to find a spot farther away to sit and cultivate.

But just as he was about to take a step, Yuwen Shuo let out a loud roar.

Zou Feng helplessly brought a hand to his forehead.

’Fine. Why am I even trying to understand a pervert’s mind?’

"Hahaha..."

"So satisfying!"

Amidst his loud laughter, Yuwen Shuo emerged from behind the boulders, straightening his clothes.

He looked up, saw Zou Feng, and actually waved him over. "Zou Feng, come here!"

Zou Feng walked over resignedly, the expression on his face inevitably a little strained.

Seeing this, Yuwen Shuo naturally knew what was going on.

"I thoroughly enjoyed that Palm of the Universe you made. I said I would reward you."

Hearing this, Zou Feng had assumed Yuwen Shuo was going to reward him with some Elixirs or the like. Instead, the man waved his hand grandly, pointed behind the boulders, and said, "This Cloud Pattern Deer... it’s pretty good to use. As your reward, you can use it too!"

"..."

Zou Feng barely resisted the urge to detonate the poison inside the man’s body right then and there.

But he quickly calmed himself. The poison needed to spread deeper, and this wasn’t a good time.

"Uh... Young Master Yuwen, no, no, that’s not necessary. As long as you enjoyed the meal, that’s reward enough for a chef," Zou Feng hurriedly declined.

Yuwen Shuo scoffed. "Heh, I knew you were clueless!"

"Do you really think I was doing *that* to the Cloud Pattern Deer?"

Zou Feng was stunned. ’Wasn’t he?’

"You people don’t understand anything. A Celestial Eye Cloud Pattern Deer is actually best used for cultivation!"

’Cultivation?’

Now Zou Feng’s interest was piqued. His expression showed he was eager to hear the details, ready for Yuwen Shuo to continue.

"Once a Celestial Eye Cloud Pattern Deer is stimulated, the strange power produced by its Evil Eye can temporarily place a person’s consciousness within an Illusion Realm."

"Cultivating within that Illusion Realm lets you achieve twice the results with half the effort!"

Zou Feng seized the opportunity and asked, "Then... how does one stimulate the Cloud Pattern Deer to achieve that effect?"

If it was really as miraculous as Yuwen Shuo claimed, he would definitely have to catch a live Celestial Eye Cloud Pattern Deer in the future and try it for himself.

His cultivation speed with ordinary Evil Skills was already absurdly fast. With a Cloud Pattern Deer, his problem of lacking time would be solved, and he could cultivate even more Evil Skills.

He’d never imagined he would get such an unexpected bonus before sending Yuwen Shuo to his grave.

"How to stimulate the Cloud Pattern Deer?" Yuwen Shuo spread his hands. "Simple. You get it so overcome with passion that it can’t control itself... Didn’t you hear the sounds just now?"

"..."

After a brief silence, Zou Feng decisively excused himself and left, unwilling to waste another word on Yuwen Shuo.

He couldn’t be sure if Yuwen Shuo was telling the truth or just toying with him, but even if the method was real, there was no way he could accept it.

Seeing Zou Feng’s firm refusal, Yuwen Shuo surprisingly didn’t order him to do it, just gestured for him to withdraw with a smirk.

Only after Zou Feng was at a distance did he scoff, "He doesn’t even dare to conquer a mere Demon Beast. So that’s the extent of his abilities. With a mindset like that, he expects to achieve greatness on the path of the Martial Dao?"

"In his dreams!"

Zou Feng found a secluded spot and sat down. He hadn’t been meditating for long when Tian Yun, having finished washing up in the stream, walked over.

Bathing was so convenient for ranked Martial Artists; they didn’t even need to worry about drying their clothes after getting out of the water. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞

Tian Yun sat down beside Zou Feng quite naturally and asked curiously, "Was Yuwen Shuo torturing that Celestial Eye Cloud Pattern Deer just now? But what’s the point of that?"

’It seems she doesn’t know about the Celestial Eye Cloud Pattern Deer’s special use.’

"Master Tian, it’s better that you don’t know..."

"Why would you say that, General Leader?"

Seeing that Tian Yun wouldn’t let it go unless he explained, Zou Feng decided to just tell her.

Unexpectedly, Tian Yun’s worldview wasn’t shattered by his explanation. On the contrary, her eyes lit up as she said, "If he wasn’t lying, then I must catch a Cloud Pattern Deer and try it myself!"

Zou Feng stared at her with his mouth slightly agape, speechless for a long moment.

’Wait, am I the abnormal one, or are you people!?’

Only after a moment did Tian Yun notice Zou Feng’s strange look. Blushing slightly, she quickly waved her hands and said, "General Leader, please don’t misunderstand. I just think that to get the Celestial Eye Cloud Pattern Deer ’impassioned,’ you don’t necessarily have to... you know..."

"We could try stimulating it with certain elixirs! That should achieve the same effect!"

Zou Feng froze. ’Of course!’

’How could I have overlooked such a simple solution?’

It was likely because of Yuwen Shuo’s tone and his teasing demeanor that he had subconsciously resisted thinking about the matter any further.

And to test whether Yuwen Shuo was telling the truth, he didn’t have to actually do *that* at all. He could just use his Great Universal Hand...
