Chapter 816: Chapter 816: The Mountain in the Water
Qin Sisi landed at the entrance of the cafeteria, retracted her Wings of Rainbow, took a deep breath, and walked in.
Grandma Mad, having waited for her all night yesterday, should also be there waiting for her tonight.
In the empty cafeteria, sure enough, Grandma Mad sat alone in a dark corner like a ghost in the night.
Qin Sisi automatically placed a Low-grade Spirit Stone in a box at the entrance and then walked over, speaking softly, "Grandma, I’ve co to eat."
Grandma Mad tugged at the corners of her mouth, her wrinkles deepening as she lifted her hand to uncover several large bowls on the table, revealing golden rice cakes, porridge, vegetables, and roasted at, all present.
The aroma of the food and the wafts of steam imdiately whetted Qin Sisi’s appetite.
Grandma Mad’s voice was hoarse as she said, "Eat up! Only when you’re full can you grow stronger."
The words "grow stronger" stirred sothing within Qin Sisi, and she sat down opposite Grandma Mad. Gazing at the ticulously prepared al before her, she asked earnestly, "Grandma, why do you take such good care of ?"
Grandma Mad’s eyelids fluttered slightly, and she replied with a question, "You are the one chosen by Ye You, aren’t you?"
Qin Sisi let out a slight sigh of relief; if it was related to Ye You, there probably wasn’t any ill intent.
"Does Grandma know Ye You?" asked Qin Sisi in a low voice.
Grandma Mad did not answer her question but instead lifted her head gently, her eyes cloudy and filled with the weight of ancient mories.
After a long while, Grandma Mad spoke slowly, "You needn’t worry about . I’m just a cook. If you really enter the Royal Palace with Ye You one day, rember to check for
if the Acacia flower in front of Acacia Palace is still there."
Qin Sisi was stunned for a mont. Could it be that Grandma Mad had co from the Royal Palace?
Before Qin Sisi could ask anything more, Grandma Mad had already stood up, shuffling towards the interior of the cafeteria.
Qin Sisi watched her retreating figure and seed to hear her mutter intermittently, "Without madness, one cannot survive..."
After dinner in the cafeteria alone, Qin Sisi returned to Tianyue Mountain.
Before going to sleep, she took out a bottle of white liquid from her storage ring and drank a small bowl of it.
This white liquid was the ilun Leopard’s milk given to her by ng Yu, a substance of great nourishnt.
ng Yu had brought four items at that ti: milk from the ilun Leopard, blood from the Blue-throated Sunbird, dicinal wine brewed with the Golden Silver Ring Snake, and eggs from the Spotted Crowned Rhino Bird.
Ye You had later asked Qing Xun to carefully analyze these items to see if they were good or bad, which would vary from person to person.
For those at or above Magician level with a healthy body, these were good things that could strengthen the body and enrich the spirit.
However, for those of lower level, or with weakened constitutions, or with serious injuries, these were hardly suitable.
Too much of a good thing can be detrintal; potent nourishing substances might weaken those who are frail and even hinder future enhancent of magic levels.
Qing Xun’s opinion matched exactly with Jing Jing’s, so naturally, Ye You no longer had any doubts.
At that ti, Qin Sisi was only of Magician level and was severely injured with an extrely weak constitution, making it unsuitable for her to consu these nourishing substances—ng Yu’s intentions were clear as day.
However, the current situation was too delicate, and pulling one hair would affect the whole body.
ng Yu might not admit she did it on purpose, and without concrete evidence, Ye You dared not directly take action against the Phantom Spirit family.
He could only feign ignorance for the ti being, playing dumb in front of the Phantom Spirit family and ng Yu, while secretly strengthening Qin Sisi’s protections and helping her quickly enhance her magical powers.
When Ye You left, he gave all four of these great supplents to Qin Sisi. Now that she was a Mage and had recovered her health, she could consu them.
However, Ye You also instructed her to take only a small portion each day, or it would be harmful to her body instead.
Qin Sisi returned too late last night and was extrely exhausted, so she didn’t rember to take it, but today, with ample ti, she decided to try a little.
After drinking a small bowl of ilun Leopard milk, she quickly felt warmth spreading within her, with streams of heat rising from her dantian into her ridians, which was very comforting.
Qin Sisi went to bed and had a sweet dream.
When she woke up the next day, the sky was just beginning to brighten. After washing up and waiting a while, Xiao ng ca to knock on the door.
Today’s schedule was Water Attribute Magic, and after having breakfast together, they set off for Tianshui Mountain, only to find their way blocked by a lake.
As its na implied, Tianshui Mountain was truly a mountain surrounded by water, its verdant slopes encircled by erald-green lake waters, forming a stunning tableau of mountain and lake glory.
Gazing at the distant waters of Dongting Mountain, a blue snail in a silver platter was revealed.
The pleasant scenery in front of her involuntarily brought to Qin Sisi’s mind those two lines of poetry, feeling that Tianshui Mountain shared a certain artistic harmony with the Dongting Mountain in the Human World.
Ripples danced across the lake, with clusters of pink lotuses twirling in the morning breeze and large lotus leaves spread on the water’s surface. The glistening dewdrops rolling around only added to the incomparably beautiful scene.
After admiring for a while, Xiao ng asked, "Sister Sisi, you can fly across with your Wings of Rainbow, can’t you?"
Qin Sisi nodded and replied, "Yes, how do you plan to get across?"
There were only water and lotus leaves on the lake’s surface, without any sign of boats, which puzzled Qin Sisi. Without the Wings of Rainbow, she definitely could not cross, so how would others manage to do so?
Xiao ng, unconcerned, smiled crisply and said, "Don’t worry, just watch ."
With a lift of her palm, a pale green light shot onto a nearby lotus leaf, which flickered a few tis and then slowly floated towards Xiao ng.
With a graceful leap, Xiao ng stood on the seemingly fragile lotus leaf, which stayed afloat on the water’s surface without sinking an inch.
Qin Sisi was astounded and couldn’t help clapping for Xiao ng’s performance.
Just then, a figure rushed to the shore like the wind and yelled to Xiao ng, "Hey, wait for !"
It was Yun Cheng, to whom Xiao ng made a funny face and laughed, "Everyone has to rely on their own skills, no shortcuts. If you have the ability, catch up with !"
Yun Cheng grinned and shouted back loud, "Alright, I’m coming to chase you now."
After looking down at his feet and choosing a spot not covered by weeds, he activated his Earth Attribute Magic Power, cloaking himself in a faint brown light.
He then lightly jumped down and his figure disappeared into the earth, vanishing without a trace, while the earth remained undisturbed.
Yes, the Burrow Escape!
Qin Sisi rembered she had learned the Earth Escape Skill before, but she wasn’t proficient enough to discern the directions underground, making it difficult to escape quickly, so she hadn’t used it since.
In fact, thinking about it now, although not very sanitary, the practicality of the Earth Escape Skill was indeed strong; she should really practice it again when she had ti.
