My Synthesizer Has Talent

Chapter 301: Chapter 299: 9 Yin Extinct Vein, Recruiting a Subordinate

Li Qingsha’s hesitation.

This prompted Lin Baishu, who was on her back, to ask in a soft, puzzled voice, "Qingsha, are you tired? Maybe we should rest for a bit."

"If they catch me and take me back, then so be it."

Lin Baishu was in a terrible state, her spirits at rock bottom, yet she was still concerned for Li Qingsha.

"Don’t worry about me. If I’m taken away, maybe they’ll release my father."

Lin Baishu’s spirits sank, the light fading from her eyes. If not for Li Qingsha’s help, she figured she was destined for a bleak and desolate life.

But Lin Baishu didn’t want to drag Li Qingsha down with her...

She was beginning to understand. From the moment she was born, she had been the root of her family’s misfortune.

Her mother had died giving birth to her.

And now, her father had been thrown in jail, also because of her.

Her family’s decline was all because her father had constantly taken her to see doctors and spent a fortune on expensive medicine for her.

Now, Lin Baishu truly wanted to die, but she had to save her father.

Even if it meant becoming a tool.

This was her only chance to make it up to him.

"Bai Su! You’ve seen it for yourself. The Immortal Cultivation Realm is a cruel place."

"And now... I don’t know if I should ask Elder Bai for help. He’s a Cultivator, too."

"What do we do, Bai Su? There’s no way to get out of the city now."

Li Qingsha despaired. She never expected this.

The power gap between the Ninth-Layer and Second-Layer of Qi Cultivation was enormous; their influence was on completely different levels.

In the Capital City, their influence was practically limitless.

And it seemed that the powerful lord above them also coveted Lin Baishu’s unique constitution.

"Qingsha, you’ve already done more than enough."

"Just go..." Lin Baishu was completely hopeless. There was no escaping the Capital City.

She murmured softly, as if gazing into a bleak future. A trace of deadened, otherworldly numbness crept into her eyes.

Tears welled in Lin Baishu’s eyes, but she refused to let them fall.

"Go..."

"Don’t worry about me!"

Li Qingsha fell silent for a moment.

Then, she broke into an even faster sprint toward Su Qing’s home.

There was no other choice.

Her last resort was to find Elder Bai.

In her eyes, Elder Bai was certainly a better option than that powerful lord.

KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK—

A knock sounded at Su Qing’s door.

He was holding a Spirit Fruit, just about to refine it.

It was Li Qingsha again.

’Just as I thought!’

’If the workings of fate weren’t obscured, Su Qing was certain he would have foreseen much of this.’

’Unfortunately, his Yi Inference Technique was a little lackluster.’

She was here to bother him again.

And she was carrying a young girl on her back.

The girl’s body was so thick with Yin Qi that Su Qing almost mistook her for a sapient First Realm Demon Fiend.

KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK—

The knocking continued.

Su Qing thought for a moment.

’I might as well go see what’s going on.’

Su Qing opened the door, his expression stern. "What is it?"

But he was met with the sight of Li Qingsha kneeling on the ground.

The frail girl beside her followed suit, dropping to her knees as well.

"I beg you, Elder, please help Bai Su."

Li Qingsha kowtowed repeatedly, her forehead striking the stone floor with heavy thuds.

Even the frail girl remained kneeling.

"I’m willing to trade myself for my father’s freedom. I hope you can help me, Elder."

Su Qing gave them a strange look, his eyes lingering on Li Qingsha.

The girl wasn’t in as sorry a state as she had been last time, but this act of kneeling and kowtowing projected a sense of utter powerlessness, of casting aside all dignity.

Only then did Su Qing slowly begin to perform an Inference on the young girl beside her.

The two of them kowtowed several more times.

By the time Su Qing finished his Inference, Lin Baishu was already growing faint from kowtowing.

"Please, Elder, help me..."

Lin Baishu fainted. Her forehead was red and swollen, and already starting to bleed.

Su Qing shot a helpless glance at Li Qingsha and brought a hand to his own forehead.

"Bring her inside," Su Qing said, turning and walking into his courtyard.

Li Qingsha’s heart was a maelstrom of emotions, but she still carried Lin Baishu into Su Qing’s courtyard.

The courtyard was clean and tidy.

Li Qingsha, however, felt a bit dazed.

"Take her to a bed to rest. I need to speak with you," Su Qing said.

The gate to the courtyard swung shut behind them.

He still had his Array Plate active, after all.

No one would be able to detect any abnormalities here.

Li Qingsha looked at Su Qing’s incredibly calm eyes, and a thought seemed to strike her.

’Could he be... a truly powerful elder from the Immortal Cultivation Realm?’

’Otherwise, why would he see someone with a Furnace Cauldron constitution and not show the slightest interest?’

Even now, Li Qingsha couldn’t see through Su Qing’s true power.

Even when he used his Magical Power, it seemed to manifest from nothing.

To Li Qingsha, such an ability was akin to a Divine Technique.

"You’re bothering me again," Su Qing’s first words were a reprimand.

"My apologies, Elder Bai. I can no longer get out of the city."

"Bai Su is too special. All the Demon Exterminators in the Capital City, including that powerful lord, want to capture her."

"A Nine Yin Extinct Vein Body is rare indeed. She would make an excellent Furnace Cauldron."

Su Qing said with a faint smile.

"I should thank you for delivering her right to my doorstep." Su Qing was just trying to scare her, and his eyes glinted with what looked like greed.

Li Qingsha wasn’t surprised, but she didn’t believe Elder Bai was truly that kind of person.

"This was Bai Su’s choice. She is willing to trade herself for her father’s freedom."

"Heh." Su Qing gave a dry chuckle. It wasn’t as if he was lacking for women.

If he returned to Qingsu Island and announced he was taking a concubine, Su Qing was confident that the major powers of the Abyss Sea would all jump at the opportunity.

They would all be eager to form a connection with him.

’A mere Nine Yin Extinct Vein Body... so what?’

It just meant she was born with an innate yin coldness, and on a yin year, yin month, and yin hour.

Because of this yin coldness, the meridians in her body were incredibly weak and atrophied—hence the name, Extinct Vein.

Her meridians were fine and fragile. She was bound to be frail and constantly ill.

However, it also made her a genius for cultivating Yin Attribute Techniques.

She was a prime vessel—an excellent Furnace Cauldron, Puppet, Human Pill, or Sacrificial Artifact.

But Su Qing had no interest in such external aids.

Su Qing knew perfectly well how advanced his own Cultivation Technique was.

Even dual cultivation would be of little use to him; it wouldn’t offer much of a boost to his progress.

In fact, he would probably have to channel his own power back to his Dao Companion.

But what could he do? He was just that powerful.

Su Qing, on the other hand, quite liked Li Qingsha. She was loyal and honorable.

As for Lin Baishu, he didn’t know her well enough.

A person like Li Qingsha was exactly what Su Qing needed.

"I can intervene on your behalf."

"But afterward, you belong to me!" As soon as Su Qing spoke, Li Qingsha’s face flushed beet red.

’Does Elder Bai... like my type?’

Li Qingsha hesitated for only a moment before her expression turned resolute. "Alright, Elder Bai. I will trade myself for your help."

"Good. A simple matter," Su Qing said nonchalantly.

Whether it concerned the Nine Yin Extinct Vein or the affairs of Chunshui Country, Su Qing could resolve it all with ease.

"In that case, I will treat the girl’s condition."

"How do you want me to treat her? I can either remove the condition entirely, or I can preserve it and teach her how to control the Yin Qi within her body."

Su Qing asked.

A simple treatment in exchange for a loyal subordinate—Su Qing was more than willing to make that trade.

"Teach her to control the Yin Qi, please, Elder." Li Qingsha was no fool.

She now understood that the Nine Yin Extinct Vein Body was the mark of a cultivation genius.

If he really removed it, she knew she would regret it herself.

"Very well," Su Qing nodded.

随后.

Su Qing’s soul spread out, blanketing the entirety of Chunshui Country. His spiritual pressure bore down on every Cultivator within its borders.

He then sent a telepathic message: "The one with the Nine Yin Extinct Vein is now under my tutelage. See to it that her family is well taken care of. Otherwise, you will all die!"

Faced with Su Qing’s immense pressure and his blatant threat, who would dare to resist?
