“The Dao of medicine is truly miraculous…” he murmured. With that, he decided that he definitely had to test out all of his strange pills. Therefore, he left the immortal’s cave to go purchase more animals to experiment with.
However, almost as soon as he left, his second test subject, the thoughtful monkey who had done nothing except stare off into space, suddenly looked up thoughtfully. Then it turned its gaze to the door in the side room, and its eyes seemed just as intelligent as a person’s! Suddenly, it burst into motion, running over… to open the door!
Next, the main gate of the immortal’s cave… was flung wide open!
The sun shone outside as the thoughtful monkey leaped out into the open. The other animals stared in shock, but a moment later, all of them… made their escape.
By chance, Zhou Xinqi happened to be walking out of her immortal’s cave at that same moment. She saw a flock of quacking ducks flying gracefully out into the open, and her jaw dropped. She had long since mastered all five volumes of spirit creatures, but she had never seen anything like these flying ducks.
“What are those things?” she murmured. Next, she was shocked to see several elephant-sized chickens racing out. Perched atop one of them was a rabbit.
“Eee? You can talk? Hahaha! This medicinal pill is incredible. I, Bai Xiaochun, am clearly super awesome. This rabbit can actually talk!”
Zhou Xinqi stood there blinking in shock, wondering if she was hallucinating.

Chapter
106: Crazy Rabbit!
Around that time, Xu Baocai and some other Outer Sect disciples were in the middle of their journeyman apothecary promotion test. Elder Xu was off to the side, a somber look on his face as he presided over the occasion. Suddenly, a flock of pigeons appeared, and plopping sounds began to echo out as… endless amounts of bird excrement showered down. It was like rain, covering Xu Baocai, the other test-takers, and the audience. Even Elder Xu’s hair was peppered with excrement….
Everyone looked up in shock as the flock of pigeons flew off into the distance, excrement showering down below them….
“Those pigeons… I’ve never seen them before….”
“Dammit! What’s going on? I can’t believe… I can’t believe they’re crapping non-stop!!” The disciples were in an uproar, and Elder Xu stood there blankly for a moment before his face began to twitch.
Chen Zi’ang and Zhao Yiduo stood on a mountain path, glowering at each other.
The two of them had been at odds since they were servants, and their conflict was only growing more intense. Usually they just glared at each other, but now things were getting more serious. “Today, we’re finally going to resolve our–”
However, before the words could be spoken completely, a group of legged fish ran by, kicking up a cloud of dust as they did.
Before Chen Zi’ang and Zhao Yiduo could react, a group of cats approached at top speed, emitting thunderous burps as they ran after the fish. Chen Zi’ang and Zhao Yiduo gasped in shock, their hostilities completely forgotten.
“Did… did we just see a bunch of legged fish?” Zhao Yiduo blurted, wondering if he was seeing things.
“Those cats’ burps were as loud as thunder….” Chen Zi’ang said, eyes wide.
Further down the mountain, cries of alarm rose up from numerous Outer Sect disciples as a horde of red-eyed rabbits began to nibble at their legs. Although the rabbits were relatively easy to grab, the chattering sounds of their biting teeth were fear-inspiring.
Most shocking of all was one particular rabbit which sat on the back of an elephant-sized chicken.
“Eee? You can talk? Hahaha! This medicinal pill is incredible. I, Bai Xiaochun, am clearly super awesome. This rabbit can actually talk!”
Everyone on Fragrant Cloud Peak was going crazy…. Countless people heard the words spoken by the rabbit, and quickly realized that the instigator of the entire affair was none other than Bai Xiaochun!
In the Inner Sect district, a group of toads hopped along. Any Inner Sect disciple who caught sight of them would gasp in shock. The sight of such eye-covered toads was enough to terrify anyone.
There was even a nine-headed tiger running amok. Fragrant Cloud Peak was thrown into complete chaos.
And there was one particular monkey… which had climbed all the way up to the roof of Li Qinghou’s residence. There it sat, on the highest point of Fragrant Cloud Peak, chin rested in its palm, looking on thoughtfully as Xu Meixiang made her way off into the distance, having just finished chatting with Li Qinghou….
Li Qinghou’s face was ashen as he stood there outside his residence, looking up at the monkey. He was just about to start yelling when, all of a sudden, plopping sounds could be heard, and a rain of bird excrement descended. Li Qinghou’s jaw dropped.
It had been quite some time… since there had been a commotion on Fragrant Cloud Peak. Outer and Inner Sect disciples alike were all in an uproar. For the most part, the animals didn’t really affect them. However, no one could figure out how such tiny pigeons could unleash such a torrent of bird excrement….
Gradually, the rabbit, which originally could only recite three passages, learned to speak some more. Gradually, it also learned how to cry out at the top of its lungs.
“Heavens! What’s that?!
“Did you see that? That rabbit can talk!
“This is definitely the handiwork of Bai Xiaochun!
“Keep this on the down low, but yesterday I saw Elder Zhou go into a room with those phoenixes of his. Afterward, I heard some really strange noises….
“Elder Sister Zhou Xinqi, Elder Sister Du Lingfei, I don’t care if Bai Xiaochun tries to stop me, the two of you will definitely end up with me, Xu Baocai!
“Elder Brother Hou Yunfei, you’re so naughty! What are you doing…? Uh… what’s that? Why are those monkeys twitching like that?!
“Junior Sister Meixiang, I, Li Qinghou, am not fickle in love. After I break through into the Gold Core stage, I’ll definitely take you as my Daoist partner!
“Hahaha! This medicinal pill is incredible. I, Bai Xiaochun, am clearly super awesome. This rabbit can actually talk!”
As the rabbit ran to and fro, its repertoire of passages grew. It had very sensitive ears, and would repeat anything it heard. Many people were affected, much to their chagrin. The sharp-eared rabbit soon began to spread what had been well-kept secrets, even naming names.
Some of the stories the rabbit spread were almost impossible to believe. That was especially true of the one about Li Qinghou…. It was something the likes of which had never been talked about publicly, and many people were left completely shocked, even many elders.
Xu Baocai was stunned, Hou Yunfei’s eyes went wide, and Li Qinghou began to tremble in rage.
Right about then, Bai Xiaochun was returning from the market, numerous small animals in tow, brimming with anticipation regarding his next set of experiments. However, as soon as he stepped onto Fragrant Cloud Peak, bird excrement rained down. Jumping to the side, he looked up with a frown to see a flock of pigeons flying by.
“Eee? Why do they look so familiar…?” Suddenly, a rustling sound could be heard from the nearby bushes, and a school of legged fish burst out. Bai Xiaochun’s jaw dropped as he watched a bunch of burping cats fly out after the fish. Moments later, his eyes went wide as a troupe of twitching monkeys ran by, frothing at the mouth as they sped along.
Bai Xiaochun began to tremble, and all the hair on his body stood on end.
“This… this is… impossible!” He quickly pulled out the Golden Crow Sword and flew up into the air. Wings sprouted out behind him as he shot up the mountain at top speed.
