Chapter 377: Golden Cocoon (1/2)

The golden glow was growing in size and making a cocoon around her body. It materialized as if it was silk threads, and no one could see what was going on inside.

Everyone had come to see what was happening; even the Vermilion Birds were curious as to what was going on, no one seemed to understand it.

Xue Wei was observing it in silence, he reached out his hand, but the gentle golden light pushed him back again, not allowing him to close in on the cocoon.

”Let's wait and see what happens,” he finally decided.

He could feel no maliciousness from the energy, and thus all he felt was the need to observe. Hopefully, this was a lucky encounter for Luoluo.

After being drained of so much energy previously back at Yan Dalu, her foundations had been unstable, but due to her being a spirit, it was very different from a human cultivator.

When a spirit had an unstable foundation, it was like a broken marble. There would have a crack within the marble itself, but it could slowly mend itself, the crack getting smaller and smaller until it vanished.

This caused her cultivation speed to slow down, she was slower at advancing, but she was able to advance still.

Her injured core was slowly being mended as she grew, but Xue Wei had the impression that this encounter with the pond would heal her completely. He even had the impression that she might advance from it.

It was not only him who thought so, everyone present could feel the undulations of advancement, and they all felt envious, some even jealous.

But they knew that this lucky encounter was only for Luoluo. All of them had been next to the pond for so long, but it was only her who had reacted to it. Hence it was natural that the energy within the lake had preferred her to any of the other people.

Once again, the Vermilion Bird Clan looked down upon Xue Wei. He was their leader, but he could not even attract the attention of a lucky encounter. What basis did he have to lead them, even a child by his side was more fortunate than him!

Xue Wei did not pay any mind to the Vermilion Bird Clan members, even if they had said out loud what they were thinking, he would merely snort at them in disdain. Not everything was about strength or luck.

Also, he was not embarrassed by his current strength; he was delighted with his power after sealing his foundation.

His goal was not to be revered by people. He was not cultivating for fame and recognition. What he needed was the strength and ability to go further than anyone else had ever gone.
