Chapter 43: Chapter 42: Giving You a Treasure

Soul Devouring Peak.

Upon nightfall, the distant stars twinkled with faint light, adorning the pitch-black mountaintop.

Inside the house, the candlelight flickered, and Wen Zhixing’s figure was hidden and indistinct in the shadows.

He opened his panel, ready to take stock of the day’s gains.

By his side was his Life Defying Blood Body, now the size of a hamster.

Since there was no need to collect Fortune Fragments tonight, it silently stood guard next to Wen Zhixing... playing with a sword.

The Sword Pill transformed into a blood-colored longsword, held within its palm.

SWISH SWISH SWISH!

The blood-colored sword wind danced about, bringing waves of whooshing sounds as it wreaked havoc inside the house.

Clearly, the little creature was quite fond of swordplay.

But one could tell at a glance that it was merely swinging wildly.

As expected of my Blood Body, this Talent in swordsmanship really is something else.

Wen Zhixing chuckled.

Feeling a bit proud inside. It’s like when your child is successful; as a parent, you naturally feel honored.

——PFFT!

Suddenly, he felt a pain in his calf, and blood began to flow shortly after.

He looked down.

A very fine strand of blood-colored sword wind had pierced his calf.

Wen Zhixing: "..."

He turned his head to glance at the Life Defying Blood Body again.

But it seemed to have no clue whatsoever, still happily swinging the sword.

Damn it...

You just can’t take a compliment, can you?

The likelihood of being killed by my own Blood Body is low, but not nonexistent...

Wen Zhixing muttered under his breath.

He knew it wasn’t the Life Defying Blood Body’s intention, but it looked quite dangerous nonetheless.

I need to find a sword technique for the Life Defying Blood Body to practice; otherwise, it’s too dangerous.

Wen Zhixing glanced at the Life Defying Blood Body at his feet and intentionally moved away a bit.

The Life Defying Blood Body was taken aback.

Then it scurried back over, instinctively wanting to be closer to Wen Zhixing.

"Don’t come over!"

Wen Zhixing extended his hand to stop it. "Stay away from me."

The Life Defying Blood Body froze on the spot, looking somewhat lost.

Did it do something wrong?

"When you’re playing with the sword, don’t come near me. It’s dangerous, understand?"

Seeing its slightly aggrieved look, Wen Zhixing could only explain patiently.

The Life Defying Blood Body cocked its head, puzzled.

Dangerous? Where’s the danger?

"Your sword, awesome. But if you hit me, it hurts, get it?"

Wen Zhixing once again used gestures and words to convey the message.

This time, the Life Defying Blood Body finally seemed to understand.

But it stopped practicing with the sword, just standing there, silently watching Wen Zhixing.

After sorting out the Life Defying Blood Body, Wen Zhixing finally had time to open his panel.

He remembered there should be two Grey and one White, three fortune rewards.

——

[Gray Fortune Fragment (1/1) collected, no need to merge, you may receive one of the following fortunes:]

[One, acquire Body Fragrance: Fragrance wafting.]

[Two, gain 1 Fortune Point.]

[Three, gain a fortune related to Ning Shan.]

——

What the hell is Body Fragrance?_{free.webn\ove(l)(.)c(o)m}

Wen Zhixing was somewhat speechless.

There truly is all sorts of bizarre stuff out there.

At least there’s the safety net of that one Fortune Point.

Wen Zhixing silently rejoiced.

If there weren’t any Fortune Points as a fallback, consuming so much life-span might have resulted in a loss that cost him dearly.

[Fortune Points +1.]

Then he opened the next Grey Fragment.

Yeah, right. Still nothing of substance.

[Cuju Mastery]? What kind of Talent is that again?

Wen Zhixing felt helpless.

Even in this world, he couldn’t possibly save the national soccer team. Even if he became an expert, it wouldn’t matter; to get on the field, he would have to start by learning how to make a toast.

[Fortune Points +1.]

[Current Fortune Points: 21.]

...

White Fortune should yield some good items by now.

Wen Zhixing harbored a touch of expectation in his heart.

[White Fortune Fragment (2/2) has been assembled. Consuming one month of life-span to synthesize, you will obtain one of the following fortunes:]

[Option 1, Obtain sword technique: Igniting Blood Sword Skill.]

[Option 2, Obtain 5 Fortune Points.]

[Option 3, Obtain the fortune belonging to Ning Shan.]

——

It really did yield a sword technique.

With a thought, Wen Zhixing immediately selected the Igniting Blood Sword Skill.

[Obtained sword technique: Igniting Blood Sword Skill!]

[Igniting Blood Sword Skill:] White Quality. This sword technique consumes the user’s vital blood. With each sword strike, the power will stack on top of the previous one, and the consumption of vital blood will also multiply. It totals seven strikes.

[Disadvantage:] The Seventh Sword will consume all the vital blood in your body, leading to death and the dissipation of one’s path.

The next moment, a jade slip appeared in Wen Zhixing’s hand.

It contained the Igniting Blood Sword Skill.

This sword technique is much fiercer than the Seven Injury Fist...

Wen Zhixing pondered for a moment, then turned his gaze to the Life Defying Blood Body, who sat idly by without brandishing a sword.

"Here, catch. I’m giving you a treasure."

The Life Defying Blood Body, seeing that Wen Zhixing was paying attention to it again, immediately stood up and ran over happily.

Wen Zhixing sighed again at the sight.

With the intelligence of the Life Defying Blood Body, how long would it take to learn the Igniting Blood Sword Skill? Or rather, could it learn it at all?

I wonder how Ning Shan will deal with She Zhihong and the others.

Suddenly, this thought flashed through Wen Zhixing’s mind.

However, he did not dwell on it too much as it seemed unimportant, and he quickly dismissed the thought.

First, let’s study the Igniting Blood Sword Skill.

「Meanwhile」

In the great hall atop Wutong Peak.

SNAP!

A crisp sound rang out.

A bright red palm print appeared on She Zhihong’s face.

In front of him stood Ning Shan, her face a mask of frost.

"Senior Sister Ning..."

Having been slapped, She Zhihong knelt down with a thud. "Senior Sister, I was wrong."

"Now you dare to make decisions on your own, do you?"

Ning Shan lifted her delicate white leg and kicked him to the ground.

She Zhihong winced in pain. Just as he tried to get up, a slender, delicate foot pressed against his head. "Elder Dongfang and our Master are close friends. Even I have to show some respect to her people. Yet you dared to touch them."

Ning Shan’s eyes narrowed slightly, her slender white foot pressing down on his scalp, slowly exerting force.

"Our Master wants this matter to be settled soon, and here you are, trying to stir up more trouble for him?"

"Senior Sister... I was confused... I was wrong..."

She Zhihong was in pain; that delicate, slender white foot felt like a massive stone, making it hard for him to breathe.

"Do you really understand your mistake?"

A playful look appeared on Ning Shan’s face as she suddenly withdrew her foot and crouched down to meet his gaze.

"Senior Sister, I... I truly recognize my mistake."

She Zhihong gasped for air.

"Are you excited?"

Ning Shan suddenly smiled broadly.

"I..."

She Zhihong was startled. Had he been found out?

"Does it hurt?"

Ning Shan’s hand began to gently stroke his face.

"No... it doesn’t hurt..."

She Zhihong showed a hint of enjoyment.

The feeling of that harsh slap on himself was indescribably wonderful.

How could it hurt?

He only felt that Ning Shan’s skin was smooth and tender, her fingertips silky as satin, irresistible to the touch.

More importantly, he felt an electrifying sensation when those slender, boneless hands glided over his skin. It was as if thousands of electric currents surged through his entire body.

His soul seemed to take flight.

A look of disgust flashed in Ning Shan’s eyes as she withdrew her hand.

She Zhihong felt a sudden emptiness inside.

"Good that you realize your mistake. Remember, cultivate diligently and don’t meddle in matters that do not concern you."

Ning Shan stood up and walked away. "If there’s a next time, I won’t be lenient."

"S... Senior Sister..."

Just then, She Zhihong looked up and spoke.

"What is it now?"

Ning Shan paused.

"Senior Sister, do you have time tomorrow? I’ve heard that a secret realm has appeared outside Cloud City. Perhaps we could..."

"No need. I have already made plans with my junior brother Wen..."

Ning Shan promptly refused, striding away without stopping.

She Zhihong lay prostrate on the ground, watching her graceful departing figure, his eyes gradually darkening.
