Chapter 1207: News about the Flower of Life (2/2)

I have to obtain the Flower of Life at all costs.

In that case, whether to go to the Human-Demon Paradise or not was not the question for Xiao Chen but what to prepare and when to go.

After finis.h.i.+ng the conversation, Xiao Chen instructed Su Tianyun to obtain some information about the Human-Demon Paradise.

The Human-Demon Paradise was filled with danger. Naturally, Xiao Chen had to make preparations.

Even though Xiao Chen was very strong now, he was not so arrogant to think that he was unrivaled under Martial Emperor.

Those half-step Martial Emperors who cultivated Profound Cultivation Techniques or practiced Medial Grade Profound Martial Techniques aside, just the ten outstanding talents of the Human-Demon Sea could fight above their cultivation realm as Consummation quasi-Emperors.

Xiao Chen was at a disadvantage, a disadvantage of age. He was too young, just thirty-one years old now.

Due to the average lifespan of a person being five hundred years old in the Kunlun Realm, at his current age, he was no different from a youth in the Sky Dome Realm.

“Ao Jiao, how much do you know about the Human-Demon Paradise? How should I prepare?” Xiao Chen asked.

Ao Jiao came out of the Immortal Spirit Ring and poured herself a cup of tea. Then, she replied, “I do not know much. That place is an experiential training land used by a sect to test its disciples. Since it was a demonic sect, it should be very dangerous.”

Suddenly, a light flashed in Xiao Chen’s eyes when he discovered that Ao Jiao seemed to have become even more like a real person.

He had not paid her any special attention for some time. Now that he looked carefully, the change was rather obvious.

Now, Ao Jiao was already like a regular person, able to eat and drink, becoming increasingly different from other Item Spirits.

Xiao Chen did not know what awaited her in the future.

“Hey, what are you staring at me for? There are no flowers on my face, you know,” Ao Jiao said with a critical tone as she frowned slightly.

Xiao Chen smiled abashedly and thought of something. “Little Ao Jiao, actually, you no longer need to remain in the Immortal Spirit Ring or the Lunar Shadow Saber, right?”

Right now, Ao Jiao was no longer an energy being. She now had a physical form and did not need to exhaust any energy.

In theory, as long as she was willing to, she could stay outside as long as she wanted to.

Furthermore, with her current special circ.u.mstances, there was no need to worry about anyone recognizing her as an Item Spirit.

Upon hearing Xiao Chen mention this, Ao Jiao evinced some anxiousness on her face. However, it disappeared soon after, nearly unnoticeable.

Ao Jiao blinked. Her exquisite face of a young girl hinted at some antic.i.p.ation. She looked up at Xiao Chen and countered, “Why are you asking that?”

Xiao Chen said, “Nothing much. If that is really so, then you don’t have to keep staying in the Immortal Spirit Ring. You can come out and breathe fresh air.”

“So, you are worried that I’ll get bored. Hehe! However, if I come out and stand with you, how are you going to introduce me to others?” Ao Jiao asked mischievously, batting her eyelashes as she looked at Xiao Chen.

Xiao Chen frowned and rubbed his head, feeling vexed. He had never thought of this question before. Whatever relations.h.i.+p he could think of was not suitable.

“Maybe my younger sister? That’s not right. Although you slept for more than five thousand years, you are indeed more than five thousand years old. You are much older than I am.

“My elder sister? That won’t work, either. Little Ao Jiao looks even younger than me. Her appearance of a young girl has not changed.

“Perhaps my friend? Is that too estranged? Our relations.h.i.+p cannot be properly described with the word friend…

“This is really difficult. What relations.h.i.+p should I use?”

As Xiao Chen thought, he spoke his thoughts aloud all unawares.

Suddenly, he felt the temperature in the room turn somewhat cold. He looked up at the frosty-faced Ao Jiao before being startled to his senses.

Ao Jiao flew over and pressed Xiao Chen to the floor as she snapped with a cold expression, “You! Who are you saying is more than five thousand years old? This lady is eighteen! Eighteen! Eighteen! Forever eighteen!”

Xiao Chen lay on the floor and watched the enraged Ao Jiao straddling him. He smiled helplessly and said, “Very well, I was wrong. Forever eighteen Ao Jiao.”

“That’s better!”

Ao Jiao’s expressions changed at the drop of a hat. She lowered her hand and smiled. “Good. Back to the original question. When I stand next to you, how are you going to introduce me?”

The current posture looked extremely intimate. Although the two were close, Xiao Chen still found it weird.

Furthermore, Ao Jiao was now no different from a real girl.

“Alright, I’ll give you an answer. However, can you get up first? No girl would press down another person in such a manner.”

Puzzlement flashed in Ao Jiao’s eyes as she smiled. “Is that so? Why do I remember that Elder Sister Ruyue pressed you down like this in the Sky Dome Realm?”

Xiao Chen smiled in embarra.s.sment. He wanted to reason with her but did not know what to say.
