200: Chapter 200: Enthusiastic Offensive 200: Chapter 200: Enthusiastic Offensive But Xiao Zhan hadn’t expected Ye Youlong to respond like that.
Suddenly, Xiao Zhan was perplexed; her thought processes were indeed damn womanly.
However, Xiao Zhan knew that this was also Ye Youlong’s display of jealousy.
“I’m not being guilty and skittish, I just don’t want you to overthink it.
How about this—you decide when we leave, okay?”
It’s best not to provoke a woman in a tantrum, for you’ll always be the one to suffer.
And why is that?
The reason is simple.
Fail to placate her, you lose money.
Placate her successfully, you lose vitality.
It’s a loss either way.
Seeing Xiao Zhan speak with a soft tone, Ye Youlong tactfully climbed down from her stance.
This whole ss wasn’t Xiao Zhan’s fault to begin with, it was all caused by that damn Holy Fire.
“Let’s wait two days, let the injuries heal, and after the Spirit Manipulation Technique is developed, we can leave.”
Previously uninitiated by the Holy Fire, Xiao Zhan would have needed about two months’ ti to develop the Fire Attribute Spirit Manipulation Technique.
But now, after undergoing the Holy Fire’s initiation, Xiao Zhan found his control over Fire Attribute Energy had increased exponentially, and it would take only three or four days to fully grasp it.
This surprise was unexpected for both of them.
It seed that what Huo Lingjun said wasn’t wrong; full recognition by the Holy Fire indeed greatly enhanced their cultivation!
The two then rested.
Ye Youlong was in a bad mood, so Xiao Zhan couldn’t test out his kidney function.
The night passed without a word.
The next day, the two got up, and upon opening the door, there was Huo Liuli waiting outside.
Holding a potion, she said, “With the recognition of the Holy Fire, your wounds should heal faster.
This is the newly concocted Gentle Fla Soup, which after drinking, will further accelerate your recovery.”
Looking at the bowl of soup, Xiao Zhan felt sowhat troubled.
Had it not been for yesterday’s issue, Xiao Zhan would have simply accepted it, but now, her bringing the dicine over felt a bit too purposive.
But during this awkward mont, Ye Youlong took the potion from her hands.
“Thank you.”
Her gratitude lacked much feeling.
The reason she accepted the potion was simple: it was for her, not for Xiao Zhan.
It was dicine, not any other sort of gift.
There was no need to make things difficult for herself.
Moreover, they still had the threat of Huang Jun looming outside.
After delivering the dicine, Huo Liuli didn’t leave but continued, “The Clan Leader said, now that you have the Holy Fire’s recognition, he is inviting you to see the Holy Fire.”
This invitation was naturally to be refused by Xiao Zhan, as it clearly carried a special implication.
“No need, I am not particularly interested in your tribe’s Holy Fire.
There are still people outside threatening us; we’ll just cultivate and heal in our room.”
“Alright, if you need anything, just call for anyti.”
Huo Liuli didn’t linger after being rejected and left directly after retrieving the dicine bowl.
Xiao Zhan closed the door and breathed a sigh of relief.
It seed Huo Lingjun really didn’t know when to give up, even suggesting he should go see the Holy Fire—wasn’t that obviously a lure?
I refuse to go, firmly refuse to go.
Besides, what’s so interesting about the Holy Fire?
Is it as good looking as my own wife?
Afterwards, the two began to cultivate.
By noon, Huo Liuli ca again.
It had never been her job to deliver als, but today she personally did so, and the quality of food was several tis better than before.
Even without saying, Xiao Zhan could see her intentions.
She really is diligent.
He took the al politely, without much conversation, and then closed the door.
Huo Liuli, knowing when to stop, didn’t linger after delivering the al and left after exchanging a few polite words.
For the next two days, Huo Liuli personally delivered als to Ye Youlong and Xiao Zhan.
Even when Xiao Zhan suggested she didn’t need to deliver als, she continued on her own way, which was rather troubleso for Xiao Zhan.
“It’s obvious, Huo Liuli is taking great care of you.”
While eating, Ye Youlong didn’t miss a chance to tease Xiao Zhan.
But Xiao Zhan could only respond with a wry smile, as in the last couple of days, Ye Youlong had been teasing him quite a bit.
“I don’t believe you can’t see it; she’s not here for , but clearly for what she calls my one hundred percent approval.”
Although Xiao Zhan’s Perception Skill could not penetrate people’s hearts, he still had so ability to capture their emotional changes.
Don’t be fooled by Huo Liuli’s passionate deanor; there was no light in her eyes, not an ounce of emotion within them, everything she did was chanical.
Xiao Zhan was well aware of her purpose.
Ye Youlong was just as clear on this point, which is why she didn’t do anything dangerous.
Otherwise, given her temperant, she probably would have cut Huo Liuli in two long ago.
“So what if it’s obvious, she still cos regularly every day, doesn’t she?” said Ye Youlong.
Knowing is one thing, but feeling annoyed is another.
“Then let’s just focus on our training, the sooner we finish, the sooner we can leave this place.” Xiao Zhan said, holding Ye Youlong affectionately.
They had at most two to three more days and then their Spirit Manipulation Technique should be comprehended, after which they could leave.
Ye Youlong had no choice but to agree, knowing that without this special environnt outside, it was uncertain when they would master it.
The next day, Huo Liuli delivered the al again; as soon as she returned to her room, Huo Li approached her.
“Holy Daughter, how could you personally deliver als to Xiao Zhan?” Huo Li asked bluntly, his face anxious and dissatisfied.
“Who I deliver als to is my business.”
But towards Huo Li, Huo Liuli was always cold.
Or to put it another way, her attitude was cold towards everyone, including Xiao Zhan.
As Xiao Zhan had guessed, her goals were not tied to a person, but to a person’s talent.
Her coldness caused a stab of pain in Huo Li’s heart.
In the last two days, he had been watching Huo Liuli closely and seeing her humbly bending her knees, like a fawning dog, trying to please Xiao Zhan.
He truly felt the Holy Daughter was degrading herself!
Xiao Zhan, an outsider, and moreover one who has ford a Life and Death Contract with the Artifact Spirit, what virtues or abilities did he have to be served by the Holy Daughter?
And to top it off, he acted so superior!
Huo Li had several impulses to step in and teach Xiao Zhan a lesson!
He ca to persuade the Holy Daughter.
“Holy Daughter, there is really no need for you to lower yourself like this; you cannot form a Contract with Xiao Zhan.”
“This is not your concern.”
“Holy Daughter, Why are you so stubborn?
You are the Holy Daughter; you should consider the greater situation of the tribe.”
“I have said, my business is not your concern,” Huo Liuli responded with so impatience.
But Huo Li beca increasingly agitated.
“Holy Daughter, Xiao Zhan has already been bound by a Life and Death Contract, according to past norms, he is already a married man.
Choosing him, don’t you feel ashad?”
These words suddenly froze the air.
Huo Li instantly realized he had spoken out of line, but after a montary dodge in his gaze, he returned to looking at Huo Liuli with an accusatory expression.
