C69 (1/2)

Looking at this beautiful and charming face, I couldn't find a single trace of anger left. I only hoped for this moment to stay for a while longer. My heart, which had never been touched by spring water before, also burst into life at this instant.

It was only then that I finally knew where my weak point was.

Isn't that it?

I looked at Qiyou in a daze, not caring about whether she had changed into a weasel. If it wasn't for the fact that I didn't have that kind of guts, I really wanted to hug her in my arms and give her a good hug.

Feeling the warmth coming from my fingertips, I was completely immersed in it, allowing Qiyou's soft tongue to touch my fingers.

And at the same time, Qiyou's face seemed to have undergone some minute changes, I don't know if it was my misconception or not.

Putting aside the fact that she looked even more charming and charming at this moment, there seemed to be a strange mark on her forehead. Although I had never seen her before, I still felt a sense of familiarity from her.

In addition, I also seemed to have established some sort of special connection with her. To put it harshly, it was as if … The feeling of blood being thicker than water.

I forcefully swallowed my saliva and awkwardly smiled, thinking that I might have overthought it.

And it was also only at this time that Qiyou finally opened her mouth and released my hand under my reluctant gaze. I looked at my fingertips that were moist, as if I could vaguely smell a sweet fragrance.

”Now, I'm your spirit protector.” Qiyou covered her face with her hands, and gently wiped her mouth, before speaking in a soft voice.

”Ah, Guardian, good, very good.” My heart felt like it was being struck by a deer, how could I still control what she said? With a chuckle, I unwillingly retracted my hand, and looked up to see Qiyou looking at me with a hidden bitterness on her face.

A look of anger crossed my face, and with a hint of teasing, I felt my blood rushing to my head. If I hadn't thought that I was a scholar and had received a good moral education, I might have done something naughty.

Thus, I took a deep breath and chuckled. I changed the topic and asked, ”Why is it only now?”

”Don't worry about it. In any case, I've already sucked your blood, and that's what you call a guardian,” Qiyou said as an embarrassed smile appeared on her face. She quietly lowered his head, and after a while, he raised his head and said faintly, ”Let's go find the three elders!”

”Okay.” How could I have any other ideas? Whatever she said would be what she wanted to say. I replied softly and followed her towards a certain direction.

The night wind blew gently, and the plants were desolate. Unfortunately, there was no moon, otherwise, this journey accompanied by beauty would have been worth it.

I secretly sighed, and only now did I feel a little more clear-headed. Those primal urges also slowly retreated, and when I thought about the strange person's scene, I asked Qiyou: ”What was that strange person just now, why is she here?”

After hearing what I said, Qiyou sighed lightly, and thoughtfully lowered her head: ”For a clan like ours, cultivating to become a spirit is extremely difficult, and after becoming a spirit, we have to find a suitable person to attach to the spirit body, if not we would be captured by someone, it is most likely even more terrifying than death.”

Although I don't really understand the meaning behind attaching a spirit body, I believe that it is to become someone's guardian spirit.

However, looking at Qiyou's miserable appearance, I couldn't help but feel pity in my heart, and gently replied: ”Didn't you just follow me, there shouldn't be anything wrong.”

After Qiyou heard what I said, she laughed: ”You still can't, although you have potential, but right now, you are also in danger.”

”Why?” When I heard this, I was alarmed. Everything was fine, how did I become in danger?

Qiyou raised her head and glanced at me, a pair of bright eyes twinkling in the night as she softly said, ”To become a Soul Painter, one must have the support of an Ancestral Spirit. Similarly, with the support of an Ancestral Spirit, it is easier for you to be targeted by the evil spirits, so there will naturally be plenty of troubles.

To be honest, I didn't know what the Ancestral Spirit was saying, nor did I know what troubles she was talking about, and I didn't have much understanding towards the dangers she was talking about. However, looking at her bright eyes, I chose to believe in her for no reason.

So I asked her, ”Do you mean to say that the freak was attracted to me?”

”You can understand it this way.” Qiyou nodded her head lightly, she turned and looked at the place where she just stood and said: ”Initially, I did not want to, but seeing the sudden appearance of that Bone Spirit, I had the thought to test your strength, I hope you do not take offense to it.”

”No, how could that be?” As soon as she said that, I shook my head and smiled in response. But halfway through her words, I remembered the key point and asked, ”Bone spirit, what is that thing?”

However, before she could even answer, I already understood that what bone spirits? To put it bluntly, bones became spirits, and from what the taxi driver said, this was originally a mass grave. Furthermore, I had just gotten to know this industry, if a weasel could become a great beauty, then what was so strange about bones becoming spirits?

Seeing that I understood, Qiyou smiled sweetly and did not say anymore.

But at the same time, I also thought of the destroyed portrait of her spiritual body. I couldn't help but be a little anxious as I thought to myself, 'Now that I have lost my spiritual body, what can I do with the old lady?'

Thus, I told my thoughts to Qiyou. Originally, I wanted to get her to cooperate with me and get me another portrait of a Dharma Body, but I didn't expect that after Qiyou heard my words, she just chuckled lightly and leisurely walked around me with both hands, then raised her head and asked me: ”Now that I'm here, what other Dharma Body do I still need?”

Only after she reminded me, did I realize that Qiyou was the ancestor of the old lady. With her there, there probably wouldn't be any problems with the old lady!

Thinking of this, I heaved a sigh of relief. The stone in my heart had finally fallen to the ground.
