But Feng Wu wasnt your average girl. No, this girl didnt know the definition of shyness. When she saw Ming Xi staring at her, she stared right back with her pair of large unblinking eyes. Ming Xi was the one to turn away embarrassed.
He spoke a little uneasily. Xiao Wu, in the future, dont use your cultivation thod in front of other people.
It was obvious she didnt understand why he wanted her not to do so but she didnt ask. Instead she nodded her cute head obediently and said, Mm.
This simple, yet lovely, appearance sent a twitch through Ming Xis heart. To be honest, hed t lots of won in his life: there were the sexy and vivacious types, the lovely and tender types, the gentle and kind types and of course the lustful types as well. The last type had poisonous stingers so Ming Xi made sure to keep a respectful distance from them.
So Ming Xi had a lot of experience dealing with girls, but hed never t a girl as simple as Feng Wu before. Sothing had been subtly changing since their first eting at the hot spring.
It wasnt like he loved her or anything, but he did feel inclined towards her. Would he grow to love her in the future? Ti will tell.
Even though she proposed to him multiple tis, he was sure she didnt love him. He couldnt detect any love in those big eyes of hers when she looked at him. Did this simple girl know what love was? He had serious doubts.
Ming Xi sighed and rubbed her head one last ti. He took out a handkerchief, and after biting hard enough to draw blood from his finger, wrote out two sentences. The gist of it was: He and Feng Wu left, so Pei Qing and Drew didnt need to wait for them.
He left the cloth in a conspicuous spot and led Feng Wu farther into the cave where the hole was.
Feng Wu had watched as he wrote the note and obediently followed him to the hole without saying a word. They walked through the hole side by side.
The hole led into another cave. Inside was a strange little tree bearing a brilliant, rainbow fruit. The entire tree only bore this one fruit. How unusual.
There was a pool beside the tree. The water from it was full of so much vitality that it shocked the senses just by proximity.
Those were the only things in the cave. There was no way out, a dead end!
Ming Xi frowned. He looked around thinking there had to be a way out, but he didnt know where. After carefully looking at every nook and cranny the most suspicious thing to him was still the tree and the pool, so he looked closer at it.
The more he studied it the more it resembled the trees depicted in the ancient texts.
The fruit wasnt actually a fruit but an elental fairy that took on the shape of a fruit. A fairy need places with dense magical energy to be born.
If this thing was a fairy, he wouldn't be able to use it, but Feng Wu would. But if they wanted it, theyd have to fight for it, and the battle for it would be terribly fierce. What to do?
Ming Xi grabbed Feng Wus hand to step back together. His thoughts were simple: First get Feng Wu out of danger, then fight it solo. The only way to get the legendary fairy was to defeat it and erase its consciousness.
But Feng Wu refused to be pulled back. Since entering the cave, her attention remained entirely focused on the tree.
The fruit was a strange thing. It was as if it was trying to hide behind the branches and leaves of the tree. In fact it had shied away the mont they entered the cave. Unfortunately, it was too big and the tree didn't give it much coverage.
Because the tree didnt give it much cover, Feng Wu could tell the fruit was secretly looking at them from behind the leaves.
Xiao Wu? Ming Xi turned to her confused.
Feng Wu pulled her hand out of his. She wanted to go to the fruit, but the little guy was so shy.
Xiao Wu! Stop! Its dangerous! Ming Xis heart leapt to his throat and he hurried to pull Feng Wu back. Did she know what it was? That thing was a terrible evil known in ancient tis. The only reason he dared to challenge it before coming to his full powers was because of his unique lineage.
Feng Wu looked at Ming Xi. Not dangerous.
But that thing is.. . While Ming Xi was trying to explain what it was to her sothing strange happened.
An ancient sword erged from Feng Wus dantian. He watched as it flew to the fruit and floated before it. It sparked, radiating an incredibly domineering aura. Then a hole opened in the sword and the fruit obediently went inside its belly.
The sword was bloated, drunk, and fully satiated. It flew back to Feng Wu and went into her dantian.
Ming Xi was dumbstruck. This was the vicious, blood sucking full-elental fairy! It should have been a bloody and hard fight.
Fairies were exceptionally fierce with powerful attacks. They killed anything that entered their territory. Afterwards they absorbed the energy from their kill and used it as nourishnt.
Despite being terrible things, fairies were a boon for humans. Anyone with a matching elental fairy could rely on that fairys power and beco exponentially stronger, even if their own personal abilities were rubbish. So even if they couldnt beco a god, they could be peerless.
Most fairies only had a single elental attribute, but by absorbing the blood of god beasts they could potentially evolve into full-elental fairies. The evolution process was long and slow. If the process was disturbed, or if the fairy was unlucky, the evolution could fail completely.
