Chapter 1352

“I… I don’t know . ” Wan Qing shook her head .

The Pill Fairy now came back, holding a tray of fruit .

She had recovered her calm, but Long Chen knew that she had gone out to get the fruit as an excuse . After all, she could have just retrieved some from a storage or life ring . There was no need to go to another room .

The Pill Fairy placed the tray on a table, and using a handkerchief, she dried an apple-like fruit and handed it to Wan Qing .

This fruit was an eighth tier medicinal ingredient . After eating it, a person would feel completely refreshed . It was something that could be used to nourish the soul .

Wan Qing clearly knew just how precious it was, and it took much cajoling and encouragement from the Pill Fairy for her to take it .

On the other hand, Long Chen didn’t stand on courtesy and instantly took a big bite as if it was his in the first place .

The Pill Fairy smiled at this unruliness . It was like there were no rules that could restrict him . But this unruliness seemed innate and was not something dislikable . Instead, it made him seem sincere and trustworthy instead of pretentious .

“Long San, I’m also very curious about the origin of shooting stars . Can you tell us?” The Pill Fairy picked up a crystalline grape and placed it in her mouth .

She didn’t know why, but when she was with him, it felt like there were no rules or etiquette that she had to follow . She could be carefree and chat naturally .

“In truth, you aren’t aware of it, but the stars above our heads all have people living on them . Some experts control this starfield, and those experts are the G.o.ds and immortals we talk about . According to my memories, shooting stars are instead called flying stars . They’re huge stars in movement and are actually the same as our flying boats . G.o.ds use these flying stars to travel… Pill Fairy, don’t laugh . This is all true . ”

The Pill Fairy was again unable to contain her laughter . But with her previous experience, she managed to stifle it . It was just that holding back was difficult .

On the surface, it seemed possible that shooting stars were objects used to travel through the cosmos . After all, the speed at which they flew through s.p.a.ce made it seem like they were used for travel .

Seeing the Pill Fairy was quiet, Long Chen cleared his throat . “However, Wan Qing, don’t worry . I’m not strong enough right now, but once I become a true Warrior of the Starry Sky, I promise to buy you a shooting star to play with!”

“Shooting stars can be bought?” Wan Qing asked in amazement .

“As long as it has substance, it has value and can be bought . ”

Wan Qing actually believed Long Chen’s nonsense and obediently nodded . But then she suddenly recalled that she hadn’t finished her coursework for today, and she hastily rushed off to study alchemy .

The Pill Fairy was unable to bestow her with a disciple badge of the Divine Pill Hall . However, no one had the qualifications to prevent her from accepting a worker . That was because her status was so high .

“You really know how to talk nonsense . Even I almost believed it . ” When Wan Qing was gone and it was just the Pill Fairy and Long Chen, the Pill Fairy finally laughed .

“Yup . Even I almost believed myself . ” Long Chen sighed . To be able to brag to the point where even you believed your bragging was also a kind of realm .

“Long San, you feel different compared to others . Being with you is interesting . With your humor, wit, and kindness, you should have many girls after you, right?”

Now that it was just the two of them, the atmosphere lightened . The Pill Fairy took out a jug of fruit wine and poured it into cups .

“I suppose . I have many beauties, but even more hot-blooded brothers . ” Long Chen raised the cup and smelled the fruit wine . It wasn’t bad . He actually smelled something familiar about it .

He realized that this familiarity reminded him of the Wine G.o.d Palace . It seemed that Pill Valley had managed to secretly learn a few things from the Wine G.o.d Palace from their cooperation back then . However, the true skills still rested with the Wine G.o.d Palace .

Long Chen directly told the Pill Fairy the truth . After just their few interactions, he had surprisingly felt that he could completely trust the Pill Fairy . He didn’t bother lying to cover his ident.i.ty .

The Pill Fairy stared at him, while Long Chen also surprised himself . The hand with which she was pouring the wine quivered, and her eyes contained shock, as well as grat.i.tude .
