Chapter 210: Butterfly Pears (2/2)
The Qi traveled across his entire body until it came down to his naval area and suddenly grew dormant. It was so still that Alex had a hard time knowing whether it was even there or not.
Any other time he ate a Core or pills, or the new Qi he acquired would vanish into his body, never to be used towards his cultivation. They would only show up on the status page and nowhere else.
Alex had started to believe that the Qi that did not belong to his cultivation base were just random numbers that would produce extra Qi for him when he broke through.
But finally, he needed to be a mortal to figure out that the new Qi was actually going to his naval area and hiding.
”But why there?” he wondered. However, there was no answer.
Alex continued throwing a bunch of more rocks and got 3 more fruits. By now, the nearby disciples had already come to ask him for some of the fruits. However, Alex wasn't so naive as to hand over them his own food. Especially to these disciples who were being punished for some crimes they did in the sect.
He told them to get their own and left the place with his fruits. Some tried to follow him, seeing his 3 fruits, but after realized that they would be far away from the cliff, they returned back.
Alex ate the three remaining fruits and searched for the yang jades a little more. In the end, he never found any. So, reluctantly, he logged out.
It was time for lunch, so he went to get some food. Hannah was already there, so they ate together. After washing the dishes, they both went back to their rooms to get ready for their classes and left.
Once again, Sarah and Emily were waiting for them. The 4 of them got in Sarah's car and went to their classes.
”God, I need to learn how to drive a car too. It looks so handy,” Hannah said.
”Why don't you? You should have enough money, right?” Sarah asked.
”Yeah, but I don't have the time. I will try to make some soon,” Hannah said. ”I will need to talk to him about it,” she said in a small voice.
”What?” Sarah asked, unable to hear what she was saying.
”Nothing,” Hannah changed the subject.
Soon they reached the university and went to their own classes.
After the classes ended, Emily and Alex were once more left together, forced to go home. They didn't complain. They walked back home together, talking the entire way.
After getting back, Alex once more wanted to invite her in, but couldn't. He went back to his apartment, ate some snacks, and jumped back into the game. It was time to seriously hunt for some more Yang Jades.
