Chapter 198: Girl In The Woods (1/2)

In the middle of the night, Xiao Fang was carrying Xiao Hei on his back as they exited the caves. The first thing they felt was the nice, cool midnight breeze on their warm skins.

”I missed looking up at the sky. It's nice to be back,” Xiao Hei said as her eyes sparkled from the reflection of the stars.

Xiao Fang had his blindfold on, so he couldn't see what she was looking at, but judging from her tone, he could tell it was beautiful.

”Maybe someday I'll take you up a really high mountain to get a better view,” he replied.

”That would be nice, but what I really want is to fly. I always wondered what it would be like to be up there dancing with the stars.”

”That would be something.”

”Fang, you need to master the Ascending Immortal technique. Once you do, you'll be able to fly like my previous master did.”

”Wait, are you serious?”

”It's true, I've even seen it with my own eyes.”

Xiao Fang suddenly recalled the story of how the City of Mannan was destroyed. It was rumored that there were 2 Heavenly realm experts fighting above the volcano before it erupted. If that story was true, then it was likely that the corpse Xiao Fang found next to Xiao Hei was one of the experts.

”Fang, you have already mastered the 1st level of the Ascending Immortal technique, [ Floating Leaf Rushing Tide ]. You should start practicing the 2nd level soon.”

”Hmm, maybe I should. We can start tomorrow after we get some rest.”

After entering the woods where his guild house was located, Xiao Fang stopped when he sensed a familiar person practicing in the woods again.

”Why did we stop?” Xiao Hei asked as she was still being carried on his back.

Xiao Fang put her down then said,

”You go on ahead. There's something I would like to do here first.”

Xiao Hei was feeling too tired to be curious, so she did as he said. Once she was gone, Xiao Fang went towards the mystery girl in the woods.

[ Stealth ]

The closer he got to her the more mist he encountered. When Xiao Fang was only 50 meters away he took his blindfold off and his eyes widened from what he was seeing.

She was beautiful, even more stunning than most of the girls in the inner court. Perhaps it was because she was a body cultivator, but she didn't seem too strong nor too soft, it was clear that she was cultivating her body and spirit cultivation and that she reached a fairly high realm with both. However, she was also young.
