Mingxuan hadn't expected Xuanyuan Mingxue to be so direct. He smacked his nose and fiercely glared at Jiang Liu'er. He said in a very gentlemanly manner, ”I see that you guys have something to deal with too, so let's chat next time.” With that, he turned around and left.
Xuanyuan Mingxue held onto Jiang Liu'er's arm and deliberately raised her voice, saying, ”Dearest, we're leaving. Ignore this kind of person who thinks he's someone important.”
Jiang Liu'er stared blankly at Xuanyuan Mingxue, not knowing what to say.
”What are you looking at? Hurry up and leave,” Xuanyuan Mingxue said a little shyly.
Only then did Jiang Liu'er come back to her senses. ”Then we should leave quickly, don't delay any longer.”
Jiang Liu'er brought Xuanyuan Mingxue with her as she walked towards the black line. She had a feeling that something was connected at the end of the black line.
The two walked just like this, feeling as if they had walked a long distance. ”Why haven't they arrived yet?” Xuanyuan Mingxue grumbled.
”They should be here soon, it looks like they're very close,” Jiang Liu'er said as she looked forward.
Just when the two of them were feeling impatient, Jiang Liu'er finally saw the end of the line. It was in the rotten house in front of them.
”It's right there in the house. There shouldn't be any danger.” Jiang Liu'er said worriedly.
”It won't be. With me here, you won't be in any danger.” Xuanyuan Mingxue was extremely heroic and true. She actually did not have any confidence in what would happen, nor did she know what would happen.
”Xuanyuan Mingxue is so amazing, she should be fine.” Jiang Liu'er thought for a while before walking towards that rotten house.
”There's no one around here, and there's no one around to look after it either. It seems like no one's managing this place.” Jiang Liu'er was still a little afraid, so she tried to find something else to talk about.
”Mn, that should be the case. In a while, you must be careful. If there's any danger, you can leave first. I have a way to leave,” Xuanyuan Mingxue said worriedly.
As the two spoke, they walked to the door. Xuanyuan Mingxue had Jiang Liu'er stay behind, so she slowly opened the broken door and felt as if it was about to fall off the door frame. The two of them first walked in, but after checking that there was nothing else in the room, they let Jiang Liu in.
When Jiang Liu'er entered the shabby house, she was really shocked by the scene in front of her.
The black lines were much smoother than the ones he had seen in the museum the day before. When he looked back at the density, it was even darker than the mist, and there was light in the black.
Jiang Liu'er couldn't help but swallow her saliva. To him, these black coloured items were like the delicacies of mountains and seas. He was fully aware of the benefits these black items brought to him.
Unlike Jiang Liu'er, Xuanyuan Mingxue was frowning slightly at the black substance. She had a nagging feeling that something was wrong, but she couldn't pinpoint exactly what was wrong.
When Xuanyuan Mingxue turned her head and saw that Jiang Liu'er was about to inhale the black air, she immediately pulled at him.
Jiang Liu'er was shocked, ”What's wrong?”
”I feel that something is wrong, this black is too bright, it doesn't seem to be a normal color. Or you can stop absorbing it, and we'll see if there are any other ways to find out if this thing is normal.”
Jiang Liu'er was extremely anxious. How could he let go of such a good item so easily?
”Aiya, with you here, you won't die.” He simply ignored Xuanyuan Mingxue's words and took a deep breath. The black line followed the direction of his breath and slowly entered his body.
Compared to the first absorption, Jiang Liu'er was basically able to grasp the progress of this thing's absorption. Although Xuanyuan Mingxue was impressed by Jiang Liu'er's outstanding intelligence, she was still worried that there was something wrong with this overly black color.
”Hiss …”
Jiang Liu'er took in the first black breath and blinked her eyes. Warmth flowed through her body, running to every corner of her body.
This feeling made him unable to say it out loud, but it also made him feel very comfortable.
”Phew …” ”Awesome!”
Jiang Liu'er turned around and saw that Xuanyuan Mingxue was using her fingertip to touch the black lines. The only difference was that every time Xuanyuan Mingxue's finger was about to touch the black lines, the lines seemed to be able to sense it and they easily dodged to the side.
Xuanyuan Mingxue had tried many times and always managed to dodge the attack with ease. After that, she was a little flustered and exasperated. She punched at the air a few times but the black lines were all disrupted.
”Hey hey hey, what kind of excitement did you get?” Jiang Liu'er hurriedly stopped Xuanyuan Mingxue. He did not want this rare black color to be lost to Xuanyuan Mingxue.
”This thing is really strange.” Xuanyuan Mingxue scolded angrily as she looked at these 'playing' with her own scumbags, and threw a supercilious look at Jiang Liu'er.
”What's wrong? Alright, alright, stop being suspicious. Let's talk after I finish absorbing this.”
Xuanyuan Mingxue couldn't find a reason either, so she could only watch as Jiang Liu'er slowly absorbed all the black air in the room.
