2023 Surrounded 2 (1/2)

But even though that was the case, none of them among Qiao Chu and the others dared to go into the Serene Spirit Tower even once.

There was something that was harmful to spirits who were non human and none of them dared to risk their Ring Spirits by going there.

”Whoa! These old arms and legs of mine are about to break off…..” Qiao Chu had cultivated for one whole day and he had fallen back onto the grass completely exhausted. Although cultivating one's power of the spirit was not tiring, but it was so utterly dull where they would sit there for an entire day, not moving even an inch. Though it could be said that just sitting there for such a long period was not tiring on the body, but it was still dry and exhausting on the mind.

Qiao Chu's mournful wail shocked his other companions awake from their cultivation.

Jun Wu Xie opened her eyes and looked at Qiao Chu who was rolling around on the grass. She could not help but smile as she shook her head.

”Don't cry so piteously. It's not all that tiring but you're being too noisy. I'll say Dumb Qiao, how old are you only? And you're complaining about your old arms and legs. Could you be already falling frail before getting old?” Fei Yan asked as he glanced meaningfully all over Qiao Chu's body with an eyebrow arched up.

Qiao Chu sat up with an indignant howl, his hands held protectively over his chest, looking like a aggrieved little lady who had been bullied.

”Who said I'm getting old before I turn frail. This little lord here is just brimming with vitality!”

”I really can't see it.” Fei Yan continued to poke at Qiao Chu with a smile.

”It's better than being a pervert who is always dressing himself up as a girl!” Qiao Chu retorted.

Fei Yan's eyes narrowed and his fists crackled loudly.

”I am thinking that you have not gotten a thrashing for too long and your skin it itching.”

Qiao Chu was not bothered as he retorted in challenge: ”Do you think I'm scared of you? Don't blame me for not reminding you that you are now in spirit form and you don't have your monstrous strength any longer. If it comes to a fight, nobody knows who will end up being the one thrashed!”

A corner of Fei Yan's mouth was twitching from Qiao Chu's taunts and he jumped to his feet to pounce on Qiao Chu. The two youths then immediately rolled into a ball of scuffling upon the grass.

Hua Yao, Fan Zhuo and Rong Ruo were not able to calm their hearts enough to continue to cultivate with the racket and they just sat there upon the grass to watch Qiao Chu and Fei Yan going at each other.
