Chapter 317: Bird-like Being
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Gu Qingluan looked at the bird-like being in his palm in his palm, and the corner of her mouth twitched involuntarily. “Is this your sister?”
“Yes, she is. Yingying is still very young, but she used to have the ability to transform into a human form. Unfortunately, she accidentally ate so Reversal Grass, which caused her to revert to her juvenile stage. Master, do you know of any way to help her get back to her normal state?” Su ng asked, his eyes filled with hope and anticipation.
Gu Qingluan had a few black lines on her forehead.
“I’m sorry, I’m a human, not a deity.”
Indeed, her dical skills were quite good, but she didn’t have the ability to make a spirit creature revert from its juvenile stage to adulthood.
Su ng looked disappointed. “Oh, it seems I’ll have to enter the Boundary Wall Space to find the Dragon Phoenix Vine.”
He lowered his head and lovingly stroked his sister’s furry head.
“Chirp!” A tiny figure, only three inches tall, sat in his palm.
Her skin was as smooth as cream, her features delicately small, and her long, snow-white hair flowed straight down to her feet, concealing her body.
If that were all, one could say she was a miniature person.
But she had a pair of snow-white wings on her back, making it easy to recognize that she was not human.
“Is this how your spirit race mbers normally look?” Gu Qingluan asked curiously.
Su ng nodded. “Yes.”
“Are you also like this?”
Su ng blushed suddenly. “I… my hair is black.”
Gu Qingluan understood that his black hair was likely due to his mixed heritage, as he only had half of the spirit race bloodline.
“Chirp!”
Su Ying tilted her small head, her shiny black eyes curiously staring at Gu Qingluan.
“What is she saying?” Gu Qingluan was at a loss when she heard her chirping like a young bird.
“Yingying is greeting the Master. She says the Master is very beautiful.”
Gu Qingluan showed a hint of surprise. “She can see my face even though I’m wearing a mask?”
Not only did she wear a mask, but she also wore a human skin mask underneath it.
Su ng smiled. “Yes, the eyes of the spirit race are different from humans; they can see through illusions to the essence.”
“So you knew what I looked like from the beginning?”
Su ng nodded.
“How did you know I needed the Gold Needle earlier?”
Gu Qingluan had been eager to ask this question for a while because she hadn’t co across the answer in his mories.
“Intuition.”
Intuition?
This kind of intuition was almost like foresight!
Gu Qingluan sighed. “Your spirit race is truly unique.”
They had exquisite appearance, prophetic insight, the ability to see through essence, possessing spiritual power from birth… and many other special abilities, it was no wonder their reproductive capability was so weak.
If they could reproduce as prolifically as humans, the spirit race might have ruled the world.
Su ng’s eyes dimd slightly, and his mood beca sowhat lancholic. “In fact, the spirit race also has many flaws, and now our people are becoming fewer and fewer.”
Gu Qingluan patted his shoulder. “Where there are gains, there are losses. We must always think in a positive direction. What you can do is use your own strength to help your people, like finding the Dragon Phoenix Vine for your sister.”
Su ng’s spirits lifted. “Master, you’re right.”
He shouldn’t be disheartened.
“Will her current state harm her body?” Gu Qingluan asked.
Su ng assured her that it wouldn’t. However, Su Ying didn’t want to remain in this juvenile stage forever. According to the normal rate of growth, it would take her several decades to reach the mature stage and assu a human form.
“That’s good then. You can’t go out right now; there are guards outside.”
Su ng replied, “I can use an illusion to deceive their eyes. Master can take the opportunity to leave the black market.”
Gu Qingluan raised an eyebrow. “Are you sure? The ones outside are all Saints.”
“Yes, but I can only deceive them temporarily. They will find out that I am deceiving them after a while.”
“I just need a little while.”
The teleportation portal was not far from there. After passing through it and leaving the black market, there would be no need to worry about them catching up.
Outside the Stellar Space, several cloaked figures were completely focused on searching the surroundings, but they couldn’t detect any trace of the intruders.
Cloaked Figure A grumbled, “Did they just vanish into thin air? We’ve been searching for a long ti and haven’t found anyone.”
Cloaked Figure B asked, “Could they have teleported away?”
Cloaked Figure C affird, “Impossible. My divine sense has been locked onto them the whole ti.”
Cloaked Figure A asked, “Yeah, isn’t your divine sense supposed to be tracking them? How did they disappear without a trace?”
Cloaked Figure C rolled their eyes, “How should 1 know? They suddenly disappeared, as if they entered another space.”
Cloaked Figure B speculated, “Could they have really entered a different dinsion?”
“Maybe! What do we do now? We worked hard to lure them out this ti; we can’t let them escape.”
“Let’s wait a bit longer. We can’t afford to let them slip away again.”
Just as they were discussing, Gu Qingluan erged from the Stellar Space and walked right past them, in plain sight. The group was still engrossed in deliberating on how to find their target, completely unaware that she had passed right under their noses..
