It was easy to lose control. However, when Wang Xiu arrived, he saw a completely unexpected scene.
Two young won were sitting shoulder-to-shoulder, chatting and laughing happily. The sound of their bell-like laughter drifted over from ti to ti.
"You two?" Wang Xiu asked, looking at them.
It was clearly Luo Qingyi in control of the body at the mont. Her smile was utterly pure, like that of a flawless Fairy from a painting.
"Senior Brother Wang Xiu, you’re back?" Ji Zidian exclaid in delight, rushing over to give him a big hug.
A warm and fragrant maiden was in his arms.
Wang Xiu felt imnse pressure and gently patted the beauty’s back. "I thought you two would have started a fight!"
Ji Zidian playfully stuck out her tongue, a little embarrassed. "I almost misunderstood Sister Hongyi. Luckily, she didn’t hold it against and even explained everything so gently! We’re good sisters now!"
Hongyi?
Wang Xiu glanced at Luo Qingyi, their eyes eting. She gave him a sweet smile and a playful wink.
Wang Xiu understood imdiately. Clearly, Luo Qingyi didn’t share those secrets with just anyone.
Wang Xiu playfully tapped Ji Zidian’s nose. "You’re always so impulsive! Alright, hurry back now. Ling’er and the others are all worried about you!"
Ji Zidian nodded obediently and turned to leave.
Wang Xiu looked at Luo Qingyi with a smile. "My apologies, Senior Sister. My junior sister is quite straightforward. I hope she didn’t scare you just now."
Luo Qingyi giggled, covering her mouth. "I was fine. It’s just that my sister... she’s been itching for a fight with Junior Sister Zidian for a long ti. I barely managed to talk her out of it!"
After all, Ji Zidian possessed the Innate Thunder Saint Body. Having been tempered by the Spiritual Pressure of the Holy Academy world, her strength had improved considerably.
In a battle between those of the sa rank, Wang Xiu still had confidence in her.
But it was better to be safe than sorry. Luo Hongyi was fundantally a wild person; if she lost control and unleashed her full Cultivation Level, it would be a disaster.
Therefore, it was best that they didn’t fight.
Wang Xiu cupped his hands in a salute. "Thank you, Senior Sister!" As he spoke, he gazed into Luo Qingyi’s eyes. "Senior Sister, it seems you’ve been appearing much more frequently lately..."
Luo Qingyi nodded, her eyes as soft as water. "I have you to thank for that. Because you nourished , my soul power has grown much stronger. Before, just speaking a few words would leave exhausted and in need of sleep to recover. Now, I can co out and walk around more, letting my sister rest as well!"
"That’s excellent news!" Wang Xiu nodded. Suddenly recalling sothing, he flipped his palm. Several fresh Spirit Fruits materialized in his hand, and he offered them to her. "Oh, Senior Sister, I picked so fruit on my way back. Please, have so!"
Luo Qingyi stared at the Spirit Fruits, stunned. Her clothes shifted from green to red, and her expression grew cold and haughty. "Fruit? Do you have any idea how precious these things are?"
Luo Hongyi was out again.
Watching her transformation, Wang Xiu said hesitantly, "I have a rough idea, I suppose."
Luo Hongyi snorted. "I’ve eaten so many of these since I was a child that I’m sick of them! Besides, they have no effect on anymore. Just keep them for yourselves!"
DING!
[Detected soone boasting nearby. Congratulations to the Host for gaining Mana 288!]
Wang Xiu smiled slightly. "It’s no trouble. Just eat them like regular fruit. I have plenty, so there’s no need to be polite, Senior Sister!"
Plenty?
Luo Hongyi scoffed, "Stop bragging. Do you think I’ve never picked these Spirit Fruits before? How many could you possibly have?"
Sure, for so unknown reason, Wang Xiu could ignore the Spiritual Pressure of the Holy Realm. But even if he could get out first, two or three days ahead of the other prodigies, how many heavenly materials and earthly treasures could he possibly obtain? Not to ntion the Ancient Forest was vast and boundless; simply finding these treasures required a great deal of luck. Furthermore, heavenly treasures were always guarded by unusual beasts. Doesn’t killing those beasts take ti? With Wang Xiu’s Golden Core Stage Cultivation Level, there were many restricted areas in the Ancient Forest he couldn’t possibly enter, so the treasures he could acquire were truly limited. In fact, many places in the Ancient Forest required Cultivators to travel in groups just to have a chance of exploring them. And any treasures obtained that way would surely have to be split with the team. Therefore, for the prodigies newly entering the Holy Academy, while heavenly treasures might seem to be everywhere, they were by no ans less precious. On the contrary, every opportunity was one that the prodigies had to seize with all their might.
...
Faced with Luo Hongyi’s sneering question, Wang Xiu scratched his head and said, "Oh, just a little."
Luo Hongyi snorted. Just as I thought. "Fine. As I said, I don’t need them. If you really have extras, give them to your fellow disciples. Helping them get back on their feet is what truly matters!"
Wang Xiu thought Luo Hongyi had a point. He imdiately turned and walked away, returning to the Sanqing disciples to start distributing the Spirit Fruits.
"Here, Senior Brother Xiang, these are for you!" Wang Xiu grabbed a handful, tossing a dozen or so Spirit Fruits to Xiang Tiange.
In an instant, dense Spiritual Energy surged in from all directions.
Xiang Tiange had been leaning against a tree practicing his boxing. When the aroma wafted over, he instantly felt his body lighten, and his face broke into a joyous expression. "This is..."
Wang Xiu smiled. "They’re Spirit Fruits from the Holy Realm. I went out for a bit and brought back quite a lot. They should help you all improve your strength quickly and adapt to this environnt!"
Xiang Tiange caught the Spirit Fruits and ate one without hesitation.
Feeling an imnse power erupt within him, he quickly sat down and began circulating his qi and blood to refine the fruit’s dicinal efficacy.
A warm current imdiately coursed throughout his limbs and torso. His qi and blood surged, roaring with the faint sound of thunder. An aura of blood-qi Thunder crackled around his body incessantly, shrouding him in a mystical light, as if he were witnessing the creation of a new world.
