Shaking his head, Leng Xuan couldn’t figure out the answer to this problem either. It seed he’d have to find an opportunity to ask Uncle Da Zhang later.
After a while, he recalled the unnad spell that still didn’t have a na, which wasn’t much of an issue, but then he began to ponder over giving it a na. After thinking for a while, a flash of inspiration struck him. From the opening Chapter of the spell, which contained the lines "Nine Suns United, Rebirth of the Fire God," he thought of a domineering na—Jiuyang God Refining!
Nine Suns United, Rebirth of the Fire God—Jiuyang Divine Art!
"Hehe," Leng Xuan was obviously very pleased with the na he had chosen, unable to help but smile. Just then, Li ngjie ca into the kitchen. Seeing Leng Xuan smiling foolishly, she paused, and then called out loudly, "Cold Bodyguard, what are you laughing at?" giving Leng Xuan quite a scare.
If it had been any other ti, Leng Xuan would have sensed Li ngjie’s presence much earlier. But when one is lost in thought, even thunder in the skies would go unnoticed.
Rolling his eyes, Leng Xuan said sowhat annoyedly, "Are you trying to scare to death?"
"What were you thinking about so deeply that I managed to scare you?" Li ngjie giggled, asking, "Co on, tell what you were smiling about just now? You looked so silly!"
"Silly? Really?" Leng Xuan nearly fainted.
"Mm-hmm! Yes, but kind of cute!" Li ngjie blinked and said with a smile, "Is there sothing happy going on? Or did you have any pleasant dreams last night?"
Leng Xuan paused, feeling that Li ngjie seed a bit odd this morning. But he didn’t give it much thought and said, "Nothing much. Oh, the noodles are ready. Can you get the chopsticks and take them out?"
"Okay then!" Seeing that Leng Xuan wouldn’t say more, Li ngjie didn’t push and took three pairs of chopsticks to the dining room.
Ling Xuejiu was already sitting in the dining room and couldn’t help but ask when he saw Li ngjie co out, "Xiao Jie, what were you yelling about in the kitchen just now? You were so loud."
Li ngjie pursed her lips and replied, "Nothing much. I just saw the Cold Bodyguard smiling foolishly, looking quite lost in thought, so I got curious and called out to ask what he was laughing about, but he didn’t say. However, I’ve noticed that the Cold Bodyguard has been a bit mysterious these past few days!"
Ling Xuejiu blinked in curiosity and asked, "How so?"
Li ngjie glanced toward the kitchen as if afraid that Leng Xuan would hear them, then lowered her voice and said, "Early this morning, before dawn, I had a stomachache and woke up. I couldn’t fall back asleep, so I went downstairs to watch so TV. But then I noticed that the door to the Cold Bodyguard’s room was open, so out of curiosity, I took a peek and saw that he wasn’t in his room. That’s why I was wondering if he might have been sleepwalking?"
"Sleepwalking?" Ling Xuejiu felt a shiver run through his body. The idea sounded quite frightening, as it was said that somnambulists act without consciousness and sotis do very scary things. There was a story about a sleepwalker in a certain hospital who got up in the middle of the night, went to the morgue, and ate the flesh of corpses. When a nurse saw his blood-covered mouth in the morning and asked what he did the night before, the sleepwalker said, "Uh, I went out for a steak, but it wasn’t cooked well, so I chewed on it all night long, and now my teeth still hurt!" Hearing this, the nurse noticed a human finger beside the sleepwalker’s pillow and imdiately fainted from fright.
