“Xiao Xiao, you hadn’t showed up in two days and I was worried sick. I didn’t know what you were doing or if something could have happened to you when you were in the dimension. I couldn’t municate with Little Yuteng; else I’d have to bring me inside!”
Mo Xuanzun carried on nonchalantly, “But, I am glad you are alight. We won’t need to worry about you anymore. We noticed that you didn’t return from your dimension yesterday and worried if something could have happened so we came here and waited for you.”
“Fool, what could happen to me?” Feeling very touched and pampered, Cheng Xiao Xiao said coquettishly.
“Let me be with you the next time you plan on breaking through!”
Looking at how serious he was, Cheng Xiao Xiao nodded. It wasn’t a big deal to her.
“Is everything okay at home?”
“Everything is fine at home. With so many people here, what could possibly happen?” replied Mo Xuanzun tenderly.
“Let’s go take a look outside!”
“Alright!”
The two of them walked out together and ran into Zhu Xiangyu in the hallway. Seeing how skinny he looked, Cheng Xiao Xiao couldn’t help but asked, “Zhu Xiangyu, what is going on with you? Did we not have enough food to feed with?”
“You are joking, Maidan Cheng,” said Zhu Xiangyu with a nonchalant smile. His smile froze on his face when he noticed her current cultivation level. It had been a long while before he was able to say, “Maiden Cheng was so talented, arguably unparallel on this continent!”
“Ugh, should I thank you for your praises?” Cheng Xiao Xiao wasn’t sure what to make of that.
“I meant what I said!” Zhu Xiangyu slowly put on a more serious look and, with the bitterness in his heard, said, “Maiden Cheng, Young Master Mo, I am here to bid you farewell. I am about to take off.”
“Oh? Taking off?” Cheng Xiao Xiao was very surprised at what she heard.
Zhu Xiangyu seemed to have an idea of what she was thinking about and, with a bit of an awkward look, said, “There are matters that I need to take care of back at the mansion. I will go back now and be back to visit you two some other time.”
“Oh, I see. If that’s the case, please take some of our goods with you in exchange for the resources that you have given us,” Cheng Xiao Xiao thought about it for a little. She couldn’t possibly let him take off empty handed.
“In that case, I won’t decline it. Thank you, Maiden Cheng,” smiled Zhu Xiangyu. He then cupped his hands at Mo Xuanzun and said, “So long, Young Master Mo!”
“Take care!” nodded Mo Xuanzun.
“Thank you!”
