Peak Cultivator's Slice of Life-Chapter 45: A Gift

Lin Diao’s expression froze somewhat seeing Yi Mingxue leave him like that.

He had to scratch his head, realizing that he was being ignored.

"Tsk tsk, Lin Diao, you’re getting your hopes up. That woman must be stronger than you, so why would she care about you? Besides, her background is probably scary too." There was a sudden chuckle from a woman who seemed to be mocking Lin Diao.

The man instantly frowned at her words.

He looked to the side where a woman with long red hair appeared.

She looked about the same age as Lin Diao, extremely beautiful and charming with an indescribable figure under her black dress.

Her eyes seemed to hide a sea of fire. If one looked at her eyes too seriously, they could be burned directly.

Unlike Lin Diao, her aura was more restrained, yet she gave the impression of being a boundless source of fire.

Without a doubt, she was also a peak expert and extremely powerful, no less than the Heaven Valley City Lord.

"What are you doing here, Yan Fei?" asked Lin Diao.

Yan Fei had not reached his level of strength yet her background was just as strong as his, so he treated her without any coldness.

"Just giving her a gift that I’m sure she’ll like," Yan Fei replied.

"A Gift? What are you going to give?" Lin Diao gave her an unconvinced look.

At their level, let alone for Dao Cultivators, very little was useful to them.

If they get it in this world, they will not give it to others even to those with high backgrounds because even with their backgrounds, they are required to rely on themselves.

And this world is where the best resources can appear.

It will be left to the False Void Masters to fight over it.

Of course, it was very difficult to obtain them.

"You don’t need to know," Yan Fei replied.

After which, she walked over to Yi Mingxue’s house then knocked on her door quite gently.

Knock! Knock! Knock!

The sound of her knock resounded in a gentle rhythm.

Yi Mingxue had not gone far from the door, so she opened it.

This was also because she knew that the one knocking on her door was not Lin Diao.

Seeing that it was a red-haired woman, she observed her for a while.

"What’s up?" she asked afterwards.

"Lady Yi, I have a gift that I’m sure you’ll like. How about you let me in so that no one sees," Yan Fei replied in a gentle tone.

She was probably very skilled at communicating. At least, just from her tone of voice one could think that she was a good partner.

Yi Mingxue knitted her brows hearing about a gift.

So far she had gotten many things from the cultivators who tried to befriend her. However, almost all of them were food or weapons.

Normally, she wasn’t the type to accept other people’s gifts. However, here she was being more calm and lenient as her strength had not returned to its peak.

"Alright!" After a moment of thought, she allowed him to enter.

Yan Fei then walked into the house while Yi Mingxue closed the door but he remained standing in front of the door.

"What are you going to give me?" she asked.

"Hehe, introduce me first. My name is Yan Fei..." The woman replied by introducing herself.

"Speaking of me, I think there’s nothing worth saying. I’m just a gregarious person and I can spend a lot just to make new friends." She continued.

"This is a gift from me!" She then handed a ring to Yi Mingxue.

The latter quickly examined it.

Inside the ring, there was the corpse of a monster. Although it was just a corpse, its aura still radiated ferociously.

Even Yi Mingxue was aware that the monster was so powerful that she didn’t have the confidence to fight it.

It was a False Void Monster yet cultivation-wise, it was equivalent to a peak expert.

This meant it had at least one extremely terrifying talent in one area.

What amazed Yi Mingxue was that the corpse was actually emitting a space aura and a time aura.

The surrounding space seemed to be endlessly distorted while time seemed to be chaotic due to the existence of the monster corpse.

"Space-Time Monster, this is one of the extremely rare Void Monsters. Killing one of them is really difficult because they are very good at escaping. To kill it, it took ten peak experts and many 3rd Stage False Void Masters working together. I paid them handsomely for them to help me kill it. In fact, I killed him because of the request of a senior in void, my father’s disciple. He was a True Void Master. Relying on the heart and blood of that monster, he managed to advance one level in his cultivation. I realize that you have also mastered the Dao of Space and the Dao of Time although they have not reached the peak. I believe this corpse will greatly help your practice. Even if you don’t break through, you can at least create an impressive technique. It would be even more impressive if you could create a technique that allows you to teleport in this world. Here, even Space Dao experts must reach the peak to truly be able to teleport."

Yi Mingxue certainly did not need to hear Yan Fei’s explanation to know how valuable the corpse was.

Anyone who practiced the Dao of Space and Dao of Time could go crazy to obtain that corpse.

Even Yi Mingxue couldn’t stop staring at it because it gave her so much inspiration.

Only, she realized this was too great a prize.

The value of this corpse really couldn’t be calculated with numbers.

Searching for a Time Space Monster was extremely difficult and killing it was even more difficult.

Yi Mingxue thought it would not be killed just by relying on ten peak experts and many 3rd Stage False Void Masters.

Yan Fei might as well have used an invaluable ace.

"What do you want from me by giving me this corpse?" Yi Mingxue could not help but ask.

She could not believe that she had no other intentions other than befriending her.

If she just simply wanted to be friends, there was no need to give something of great value like this.

"Uhmm..." Yan Fei could not help but clear her throat at her question.

She rolled her eyes a few times and cleared her throat again.

She thought Yi Mingxue was too blatant. Wouldn’t it be better if she just accepted it then pretend that it was just a token of friendship?

Whether or not she had other intentions could be discussed at another time.

"I’m not one to take advantage. I will accept this gift and since the value is too high, if you need help in the future, and I think it’s worth what you give, I won’t refuse your request," Yi Mingxue added before the woman could say anything.

She didn’t force her to say it now but also made it clear that she could give her a favor in return.

What about their friendship?

Then it would depend on how Yi Mingxue viewed it.

Yan Fei also knew that she did not need to speak too much.

She nodded and said, "I’ll leave first then. I can’t wait for you to show your impressive strength in this Battle World. The Void Monsters are always arrogant, an expert like you can definitely suppress their arrogance!"

After saying that, she finally opened the door and went out then closed it quietly.

Asher who had been hiding inside Yi Mingxue’s Dimensional Artifact finally stepped out.

His strength was also suppressed in this world, but it was not as much as in other Great Universes. He was not suppressed to the point of becoming a Paragon, but a 3rd Stage False Void Master.

With his Dao having reached the highest level in the void, his combat power was naturally far above that of a peak expert.

"Master!" Yi Mingxue greeted him respectfully.

"You can start training now, but yeah, it’s not as comfortable here as elsewhere. You’ll be like an ordinary human. Every few hours, you’ll get hungry and have to eat. Fortunately, you already have a lot of cooked meat, maybe later you need to learn the meat cooking skills of the Void Monster. I’m sure it won’t be too difficult for you considering you are a good cook," Asher said with a faint smile.

"Well, I also want to practice, but I won’t starve, so you don’t have to bother me," he added. 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦

He scanned the house which had several rooms.

He then entered one of those rooms.

Ever since obtaining that Soul Artifact, he had been practicing with it, trying to improve his Dao of Illusion.

Although he had barely made any progress due to how low his talent in the Dao was, it was not without progress at all.

This was naturally a good thing for him.
