บท 16: Characteristic!
บรรณาธิการ: Henyee Translations
After the meal, Ye Yuntian left.
Chen Qing sat at the table, resting his chin on his hands as he quietly waited for the grass darling to turn into a butterfly.
He did not know what would happen after it turning into a butterfly. It would be best to expand the range.
Maybe 20 mu!
It was not easy for him to guess its characteristics. This thing would change too much.
Originally, he could make a judgment based on the materials used to advance. However, there were too few Grass Spirit Gu in this realm that could transform into butterflies. There was not much reference value, and he could not guess.
Chen Qing was not worried. After all, he could still nurture other production-type Gu insects.
In the afternoon, the spirit plant elder returned, and gave Chen Qing a piece of paper, asking him to list his friends' names.
The banquet was about to begin!
Transforming a Gu insect into a butterfly was a huge matter, so he had to invite his good friends over to celebrate together.
Chen Qing thought for a long time, and finally thought of Li He, Wang Ye, and Zhou Ke.
He was only slightly more familiar with these three people.
The elders were naturally invited. There was no doubt about this.
Elder Chen and the elder guarding the altar were among them.
Ye Yuntian ws also invited. After all, Cheng Qing's status was different now. It was not wrong to have a better relationship with Ye Yuntian.
Moreover, Ye Yuntian was a forthright and chivalrous person. He was someone who could be befriended.
Looking at Chen Qing's name list, the spirit plant elder said, "Your place is too small, it's not spacious enough. You can do it here."
Chen Qing naturally understood what the spirit plant elder meant. This was to label him as a member of the spirit plant elder's lineage in the future.
However, he did not mind. After all, he was alone previously.
"Leave the arrangements to me. You just need to write the invitations of your friends. When your Gu insect turns into a butterfly, get the boy to send it out."
Although Chen Qing wanted to reject the spirit plant elder's good intentions, he was no match for Senior Sister Yu Qingshuang's good looks!
"Then I'll leave everything to you, Elder."
At night, under the gaze of the spirit plant elder and Chen Qing, the cocoon absorbed the spirit qi of dozens of spirit stones again, and suddenly loosened a little.
The inside was bulging, and the cocoon's surface began to protrude.
With a pop, the cocoon cracked open, and a chubby green butterfly crawled out.
It spread its four wings forcefully, and stretched its entire body.
Sensing the changes here, Yu Qingshuang jumped down from the wall, and looked at this soul-stirring and magical scene.
This meant that the Gu had successfully transformed into a butterfly!
Chen Qing looked at the Grass Spirit Butterfly that was gradually becoming more beautiful and delicate. There were specks of fluorescent light on its wings, and the green light spots and patterns outlined the divine workmanship of nature.
It was exceptionally cute.

The spirit plant elder immediately stood up, and said, "Chen Qing, I'll go arrange the banquet. Stay here and feel the changes in the Grass Spirit Butterfly."
This was to let him sense the characteristics of the Grass Spirit Butterfly.
The spirit plant elder left with Yu Qingshuang, leaving Chen Qing alone to understand it carefully.
Chen Qing thought to himself that he already knew without needing to sense it, but he still let the Grass Spirit Butterfly fuse into his body and carefully sensed it.
In the Grass Spirit Butterfly's consciousness, it flew around various grass-type spirit plants, causing them to undergo some changes.
Chen Qing saw spirit ginseng inside!
This was a crucial point!
The spirit ginseng was a crucial ingredient for the ginseng wine, which was very much in demand among cultivators!
The next morning, not long after Chen Qing woke up, the spirit plant elder rushed over. "Chen Qing, did you sense any changes in your Grass Spirit Butterfly?"
Chen Qing said, "Its range seems to have increased. I can also sense it dancing on various spiritual herbs.
"There seems to be spirit ginseng among these spirit herbs."
The spirit plant elder said excitedly, "Are you talking about spirit ginseng?"
Chen Qing nodded.
The spirit plant elder pulled Chen Qing up excitedly. "Let's go and give it a try."
After experimenting in the spirit field, the butterfly could indeed manage all kinds of grass-type spirit plants, and it even made the spirit ginseng in the sect's spirit field look brand-new.
The spirit plant elder laughed excitedly. "Good, good, don't worry, Chen Qing, I will definitely get the mountain lord to give you a satisfactory offering!"
"It's about 15 mu.
"Looks like I have to gather a group of disciples to plant the spirit ginseng. These are not enough now.
"We also need more sword heart grass. Sword Gu sometimes needs it. Our Carefree Mountain has many disciples who cultivate the sword.
"I'll report to the mountain lord now. You'll stay at my place for the time being. When Ye Yuntian arranges a place for you to stay on the mountainside, you can go to the new cave abode."
At night, the spirit plant elder returned drunk. Under Yu Qingshuang's service, he drank two bowls of hangover soup, and called Chen Qing over.
"I've already discussed it with the mountain lord and Old Chen.
"From now on, you will be the vice hall master of the spirit plant hall.
"The sect will open up another 120 mu of spirit fields. Among them, 100 mu of spirit ginseng and 20 mu of sword heart grass will be handed over to you to manage.
"I've already made a deal with the mountain lord. Your yearly provision must not be less than 8,000 spirit stones!
"If he doesn't agree, Old Chen and I will fall out with him!
"By the way, because the area of the spirit field has increased, the Spirit Plant Hall has to recruit three more people to listen to your orders and be in charge of managing the ordinary spirit field. It's 800 spirit stones a year.
"Go and find three trustworthy ones…"
Yu Qingshuang said unhappily, "You're already so old, yet you still drink so much."
The spirit plant elder waved his hand casually. "It's alright, I'm happy today!"
Chen Qing's emotions fluctuated because of this appointment. He did not expect to be promoted to a vice hall master directly.
The current spirit plant hall had always been managed by the spirit plant elders, but there was no hall master!
Wasn't he, the vice hall master, the hall master?
Chen Qing knew that the sect was giving him a chance to advance in the future.
To put it bluntly, in the entire Carefree Mountain, only three people had the butterfly Grass Spirit Gu. Xiao Zhong did not listen to orders, so Chen Qing was the only one
Coupled with his clean background, it could be said that Chen Qing was almost a direct disciple of the sect. The only power behind him was Carefree Mountain, which was why he was appointed.
As a vice hall master, he had entered the core of Carefree Mountain.
Even when it came to important matters, he had a certain amount of authority.
As for Chen Qing, he was firmly tied to Carefree Mountain by this appointment.
However, Chen Qing did not mind. The higher the status, the safer it was. Carefree Mountain would value him more.
He was a homebody, and did not like to go out and seek death. It was quite good.
This time, it was really like he ascended to the heavens while holding the Gu's
Chen Qing took three steps back and bowed. "Thank you for your nurturing, Elder!"
The spirit plant elder waved his hand. "Go, go. Your Gu insect has just turned into a butterfly, you have to take good care of it."
Chen Qing returned to the guest room, and the spirit plant elder waited for Yu Qingshuang to also leave. Suddenly, he looked extremely energetic and not drunk at all. "Oh, Shuang'er, I, this old man, have been worried sick about you."
