31 Just a Friend (2/2)
”Ha, I'm hardly using any spirit energy at all. If we find that iron golem I'll show you something really special”, Gao Chun said.
Though it looked a bit flashy, it was the most energy efficient technique known to most spirit cultivators. The problem was that he was using it improperly to show off.

[ Technique: Spirit Condensation ]
- Prerequisite: Spirit Refinement realm
- Basic spirit attack
- Convert spirit energy into physical energy.
- The higher the cultivation, the stronger the attack
To put it into perspective, this attack is equivalent to a swordsman simply swinging his sword, and it is learned as soon as one breaks into the spirit refinement realm.

”Xiao Fang, you haven't even taken out your sword. Didn't you want to see how much stronger you got?”, Li Lian asked.
”Theres no need to stain my new sword with rat blood. For now, my fists will suffice”, he said casually.
He wasn't thinking about the rats, but of the mysterious path he chose not to take. Eventually, his curiousity got the better of him and he stopped.
”Xiao Fang, what's wrong?”, Xun Wei's question got Li Lian's attention.
”There's something I want to do. Stay with Li Lian till I get back”, he said before leaving.
”Xiao Fang!”, Li Lian yelled at him angrily. Though, she wanted to separate Xun Wei from Xiao Fang, she didn't want to be stuck with Gao Chen.
Gao Chen was fighting off some rats as he saw Xiao Fang leave from the corner of his eye.
”Is he running away? I can't believe he's scared of some rats, what kind of man is he”, he thought.
His eyes locked onto the two ridiculously beautiful girls a few meters behind him, then he smiled mysteriously.
Li Lian cursed inwardly when she saw his lustful gaze on her body once again.
Xun Wei smirked from the thought of what Xiao Fang would do to him if he were to touch her. So she teased him once and his little brother stood.
Xiao Fang went alone because he didn't want to put his two girls in danger, but he also didn't trust Gao Chen. Xiao Fang frowned because he felt he was making a mistake, so he picked up his pace.

Li Lian and Xun Wei talked to each other, while Gao Chun was fighting off the rats.
”Xun Wei, right? What's your relationship with Xiao Fang?”, Li Lian asked.
Xun Wei stopped playing with her new sword when Li Lian started questioning her about Xiao Fang.
”We're just friends”, Xun Wei replied carefully, knowing the relationship between Li Lian and Xiao Fang.
”Just friends? Xiao Fang spoke pretty highly of you, are you sure you are 'just friends'?”, Li Lian's eyes narrowed.
Xun Wei started to feel a bit awkward.
”Why would he talk about me infront of his fiance”, Xun Wei thought before saying:
”He did? I suppose he did share a few secrets with me”.
”Secrets? What kind of secrets?”.
”He told me you were his fiancé”.
”What!”, she exclaimed.
”I can't believe he exposed our secret to a friend”, she said under her breath, but Xun Wei still heard her.
”I guess you can say I'm not just a friend”, Xun wei replied hinting a secret message in her words.
Just from that response Li Lian was able to see Xun Wei's vicious side through her smile.

”Lian'er, how was I?”, he explained his attack and movement technique in detail.
”Gao Chen, how many times do I have to tell you not to call me that. We aren't getting married”
