Chapter 5: First Blood - Slapping Arrogant Young Master (1/2)
”Where are you before? And, why can't I perceive your cultivation? As I remember your cultivation only at Third Level of Qi Refining stage yesterday, are you actually an expert in hiding?” Feng Xue asked bluntly without hiding her curiosity.
”I was here since the beginning. You cannot see my cultivation and my presence because of the technique I learned. And I'm only at the Fourth Level of Qi Refining stage. I have a breakthrough as soon as you leave the room.” Snowy answered each question patiently.
Feng Xue was surprised that Snowy answered all of her questions honestly; she even told her about her technique and unbelievable cultivation progress. She was progressing one minor level only in a few hours.
Since when cultivation became so easy?
If this secret was exposed, It can be guaranteed many people would spare no effort to capture Snowy and extract all of her knowledge. Moreover, Snowy was a transcendent beauty. Merely this fact can danger her life. So, why did she tell her her secret easily? Did Snowy thought she won't expose her?
”Why you tell me all of this? I can easily bring you to harm if I tell other people about this, my family for example.”
”It's okay if it's you. I can trust you.” Snowy answered with confidence.
”Uuh you…Why are you so foolish.” Feng Xue muttered softly with an exasperated look. However, she can't hide her happiness knowing that Snowy trusted her.
”Can you teach me this technique? It sounds handy,” she asked to gauge Snowy's bottom line.
”I can teach you. But, I don't know if you can learn it or not.”
”Hmmph, if you, who are only at Qi Refining Stage, can learn it. There's no way I can't! Just teach me!”
”Okay. Can you bring me a brush and paper? I'll make a copy of the technique.”
”Wait a minute, I'll bring a brush and paper.”
A moment later, Feng Xue came back with a brush and stack of papers. Then, Snowy wrote the technique manual and handed the copy to Feng Xue.
Feng Xue was very excited. Thus, she quickly skimmed the manual. Her face turned more and more unbecoming as she read page after page.
”What!!! This technique is so profound! What grade is this technique?” asked Feng Xue.
”This one is Earth-ranked technique and this one is Heaven-ranked technique.” She point at Aura Concealment manual and Yin Yang Shadow Step manual consecutively.
'H-Heaven-ranked technique!! How can she have these technique?'
'Snowy, just who are you, really?'
Feng Xue's view of the worlds once again turned upside down by Snowy.
A Mere Earth-rank technique was enough to make all big sects turn rowdy. As for a Heaven-rank technique, just a rumor of its appearance can make them massacre an entire city without batting an eye.
Even her own sect rumored to only have three Heaven-ranked techniques. One can only learn it after they became a core disciple and amassing an enormous amount of contribution points. And here, it was thrown like a cabbage makes her head feel dizzy.
Feng Xue always dreaming to learn these techniques one day. But she didn't expect that that time comes so soon. Feng Xue looks at Snowy with moist eyes feel with gratitude.
”T-thanks. You have no idea how much it means to me.”
”I can give you more.”
Her body freeze and her gaze turn sterner.
”Why…?”
”Hm?”
”Why are you so nice to me?”
'Are you deliberately make me fall for you?' Such a thought came to her mind for a brief make her feel giddy.
”When I see you happy, it makes me feel…happy?” Snowy said in an unsure manner.
”I-is that so?”
Feng Xue covered her face with her hand to hide her embarrassment. Her body turned fidgety and her breath turned a bit rough.
”Un.” Snowy replied as she silently wondered if this reaction was what people called 'cute'.
”Thanks, hehe.”
Feng Xue laughed softly while still hiding her face. She felt today was so unreal because happiness came one after another in such a short time.
She wondered if she can keep Snowy in her side forever, how much joy can she get?
Apparently forget about her earlier statement about how impossible for her to bend, she let her imagination ran wild.
