180 Water Spirit
"What is that?" Qiao Mu's eyes were instantly attracted by the stream of water coiling around Murong Xun's hand.
"This is a water spirit." Murong Xun lifted her hand and the giant wave behind her surged again.
Duan Yue's head just happened to surface from the water at that moment.
To his misfortune, the giant wave came cascading down, sending him plunging into the water again.
Qiao Mu: …
How miserable.
"There are five spirits in the world, and this is one of them." Murong Xun had a grin on her face as she stepped toward them on the water. "When your cultivation reaches a certain level, you'll gradually feel the origin elemental power from heaven and earth."
"You can try to sense this elemental power at that time."
"Of course, it's a bit difficult for people to sense the five spirits in our Sikong Planet." And you would also feel a suppression. You could even say you basically could not sense the five elemental spirits in a god-forsaken like Sikong Planet.
However, the little fellow did not have to fully understand this yet.
Qiao Mu sunk into contemplation and stared off into the distance, her thoughts drifting off as well.
She remembered that that person could control lightning.
His jade-like dark green eyes glittered with a demonic glint under the reflection of his lightning.
It turned out that this was the five spirits, the origin elemental power of heaven and earth.
It could utterly suppress mystic energy.
The difference between him and her… was that of heaven and earth. What if they met again? Would she become his little pet again? Would she be corralled and penned again?
What a terrifying fate!
Qiao Mu shuddered and felt an icy feeling creeping over her heart.
A warm and cozy blanket draped over her tiny figure. Murong Xun reached out to pick her up. "Let's go home. Don't catch a cold."
Qiao Mu's cool hands pasted onto Murong Xun's cheeks, and she seriously looked at her. "Master, will I be as strong as you in the future?"
This child's eyes were dark like flawless jewels, beautiful beyond words.
Murong Xun was startled briefly. She felt her heart melt at this quiet call.
She broke into loud laughter and walked away with Qiao Mu in her arms, leaving behind only her calm voice, "Good disciple, with your talent, you'll surpass Master in a few years! Remember to take Master under your protection at that time, alright?"
After Duan Yue climbed onto the shore with a lot of trials and tribulations, he felt a thousand thoughts racing through his mind as he gaped at the empty waters.
"…"
'Have you two completely forgotten about me?'
'Is that really fine?'
…
One day later:
All the carriages heading toward Qinghe Town were gathered in the central plaza of the city.
The disciples from the three sects each stood in their spot, each group containing seven disciples.
Meanwhile, the mystic cultivators, body cultivators, and superhumans assembled by the City Lord's Estate stood elsewhere.
Holy Water Sect was the liveliest group in the entire plaza.
The seven celestial women surrounded a little stoic, chattering and scrambling to hug her.
"Little Junior Sister, I'm your Senior Sister Yu Gui from Second Peak."
"I'm Li Ling from Third Peak."
"Little Junior Sister, ignore them."
"The two of us are your true direct senior sisters! You don't have to pay attention to the other people."
"Qiaoqiao, let's form a team together later…" Before Duan Yue could get close to the seven-fairy encirclement, he was suddenly forced back by two abrupt swords.
"Senior Sisters of the Holy Water Sect, I'm Duan Yue from the Daybreak Sect. I'm friends with your little junior sister! We're together, we're together!" Duan Yue explained with a grin as he pointed at Qiao Mu and himself.
"Little Junior Sister, this is your friend?"
"That's right, that's right. We're together! Together!" Duan Yue forcibly squeezed out an opening in the crowd and excitedly walked to Qiao Mu's side.
