C2 I Have to Protect My Mother

"Mom, please teach me some magic. I also want to become as powerful as Mom. When the time comes, I can protect Mom!" Cheng looked at Qu Ruotao and said.

Cheng still clearly remembered that the last time in the Qin Capital, his mother had been humiliated by Bai Qiuyue. Although she had also been taught a lesson and punished by her mother, Cheng did not want this to happen a second time. If there was a second time, she hoped that she would be the one to protect her mother and not her mother.

"Now that Cheng is young, of course I have to protect you first. It's not too late to protect me when Cheng grows up."

Hearing Qu Ruotao's words, it was obvious that his mother did not intend to teach him. Cheng immediately became anxious. He quickly pulled Qu Ruotao's arm and shook it left and right. He said coquettishly, "Mother, please teach me! I beg you!"

After a long time, Qu Ruotao finally couldn't take it any longer and agreed. It wasn't that she didn't want to teach Cheng how to cultivate magic, but Cheng's body had some hidden secrets that Qu Ruotao didn't want to talk about.

If she had let him practice, she would have had a harder time than most people, and most of all she was afraid that his body would not be able to bear it. If she could have protected him for the rest of his life, she would have preferred him not to be a practitioner.

"The next cultivation process may be extremely difficult. Are you sure you want to step onto this path?" Qu Ruotao was not exaggerating to scare her. She just wanted her to know when to retreat so that she would not regret it in the future!

"I have made up my mind. No matter how hard it will be, I will learn it, because I want to protect my mother!"

Qu Ruotao patted Cheng's little head with a gratified expression. "As expected of my, Qu Ruotao's, daughter. She's going to suffer and become a great person!"

Qu Ruotao brought Cheng back to her residence and taught him some simple spells, which could be considered as a protective spell for Cheng.

To Qu Ruotao's surprise, Cheng had already learned it after she had only taught him two or three times. The next step was to keep practicing and make him more skilled!

Cheng was so excited that he danced around. He did not want to disturb Qu Ruotao's cultivation and consciously went to another place to practice.

Qu Ruotao watched Cheng's back disappear into the forest bit by bit before she came back to her senses and began to prepare to refine the pill.

There were so many herbs in this place that it would be a pity not to pick a few and use them to make medicine. In a place where there was so much spiritual energy, it was impossible for the herbs to wither.

Qu Ruotao went out with the tools to dig up medicinal herbs. She followed a narrow path that Wuqing had opened up in the mountains and walked all the way into the depths of the mountain range. The less populated a place was, the more rare and precious medicinal herbs there were!

After walking for an unknown amount of time, Qu Ruotao's expression did not change at all. She did not seem tired at all. It was precisely because of the abundant spiritual energy in this place that Qu Ruotao was able to replenish it as she consumed it. Naturally, she did not feel tired after walking so far.

Seeing that her small bamboo basket was almost full of herbs and that she had only dug less than a third of all of them, Qu Ruotao finally thought of a way.

He had created a new space, and put all the herbs that he had dug up into it, so that he would not have to worry about not having enough space to put all the herbs, and the space was about the same as the real world, so that the herbs would not deteriorate too quickly and lose their value!

Qu Ruotao was still not satisfied with the results. After all, she had never seen any of the truly precious species recorded in the books except in books.

If I don't get a chance to see it in a place like this, I'll probably never see it anywhere else in my life.

"It seems that I haven't gone far enough. If I go further, I might meet some rare species!"

With that thought in mind, Qu Ruotao stood up and continued her search.
