"I can tell you, but," Feng Qishi glanced at Mu Anxiao and asked, "you have to tell me first, what exactly happened outside last night?"
However, Feng Qishi asking this was within Mu Anxiao's expectations.
"I can tell you, but you have to tell me first if you cut flesh," she asked.
Feng Qishi said, "You tell me first, then I'll tell you."
"I won't, you go first..."
"Speak." Feng Qishi interrupted, reaching out to grip Mu Anxiao's arm and stopping her.
"..." Mu Anxiao was startled by Feng Qishi's suddenly cold tone and honestly replied, "The vine spirit handed the vine monsters it trained to Gui Xiao, and then..."
"Stop, who is Gui Xiao?"
Mu Anxiao blinked and said, "That male demon soul that attached itself to the woman's body."
"You remembered his name."
"Yes, I remembered."
"Oh, then continue."
Mu Anxiao cleared her throat, "Then... he made those guys deal with me, and I killed them all with a whoosh. In the end, Gui Xiao ran away."
Feng Qishi asked, "Didn't you ask him about those people?"
Mu Anxiao said, "I asked. He said he wanted to use my name to kill all those people, and then watch me go to hell." As she spoke, she sighed.
Some things, the more tense one becomes, the more troublesome they get. After years of being wronged, Mu Anxiao knew that instead of worrying, it was better to find a solution.
Therefore, what she wanted now was to find those mortals and capture all the demon souls. Anything else, she felt, was useless to think about!
Feng Qishi looked at Mu Anxiao's calm demeanor and was surprised, "You're not nervous?"
If it were before, upon hearing about this, Mu Anxiao would have nervously begged Feng Qishi for help. Now, she was so calm, which made him perplexed.
"It's not too late to get nervous when things start happening," Mu Anxiao said, pointing to Feng Qishi's hand. "I've explained everything, now it's your turn."
Hearing this, Feng Qishi glanced at his finger and said, "I healed your injuries with my blood, not by cutting flesh."
"Your blood has that effect?" Mu Anxiao was surprised.
"My blood doesn't. My spiritual energy does. Anyway," Feng Qishi smoothly put his hand on Mu Anxiao's shoulder, "There are many things you still need to learn. Even if I told you now, you wouldn't understand."
"The bloodshed you mentioned, does it refer to this?" Mu Anxiao pointed to Feng Qishi's finger.
Feng Qishi nodded, "Yes."
Every time Mu Anxiao was injured, Feng Qishi would heal her instantly. Yet, this time, he couldn't heal himself, which made Mu Anxiao confused.
"Then why can't you heal yourself?" she asked.
Feng Qishi said, "If you say so, can you heal yourself?"
"My magic is limited."
"My magic is also limited."
"Alright!" Mu Anxiao casually conceded and then began to look around.
Feng Qishi couldn't help but smile at Mu Anxiao's feigned seriousness.
The next second, Mu Anxiao shifted her gaze to Feng Qishi's face, "What are you laughing at?"
Feng Qishi said, "I just think your pretense is particularly funny."
Mu Anxiao rolled her eyes at Feng Qishi and asked, "Hey, do you have a disk?"
"What do you want it for?"
Mu Anxiao impatiently said, "Just tell me if you have it or not."
Feng Qishi said, "Yes, but your master Zhang Yan doesn't seem to let you use it. If you use it, it would be considered a foul."
However, the disk was the most convenient magic tool for Mu Anxiao to find demon souls.
But in Zhang Yan's opinion, the disk was one of the most useless magic tools. He even stubbornly believed that such a tool would only increase Mu Anxiao's laziness, so he taught Mu Anxiao to find them with her own abilities.
Every time Mu Anxiao wanted to use the disk, Zhang Yan would look at her with disdain.
Slowly, she no longer dared to ask for it.
Feng Qishi had seen all of this when he was in seclusion above.
"So, I still advise you to give up!" Feng Qishi added.
Mu Anxiao pouted, "Stingy."
"I have some good news for you. After you hear it, you'll take back what you said."
"If it's not about me, don't tell me."
"It's about you," Feng Qishi pointed at Mu Anxiao.
Mu Anxiao frowned, "Me?" She pointed at herself and sneered, "You're just kidding me!"
"Do you want to listen or not?"
"I'll listen." Mu Anxiao's eyes lit up.
Feng Qishi hooked his lips and extended his hand, "Put your hand in mine."
"Why?"
"No reason, hurry up." Feng Qishi urged.
Mu Anxiao hesitated for a moment, then placed her hand on Feng Qishi's.
Then, Feng Qishi felt her internal spiritual energy from her palm and exclaimed in surprise, "How is this possible!"
Hearing this, Mu Anxiao withdrew her hand and asked, "What's wrong with me?"
"Your spiritual energy."
At this moment, seeing Feng Qishi's rather mysterious expression, and recalling what happened last night, Mu Anxiao began to feel nervous.
"What's wrong with my spiritual energy?" she tentatively asked.
Feng Qishi was silent for a moment and said, "Your spiritual energy... has reached level ten."
Level ten? From level six to level ten overnight, how could that be possible?
At this moment, Mu Anxiao resolutely disbelieved his words.
Considering the reality, she thought Feng Qishi was using this good news to comfort her.
So, she said, "I'll find it myself. Don't try to deceive me with such boring good news."
"I'm not lying to you. If you don't believe me, look." Feng Qishi pointed to Mu Anxiao's palm.
Mu Anxiao glanced at Feng Qishi, and then, the moment she looked at her palm, she was stunned.
"It's true."
Feng Qishi just smiled without speaking, "....."
Mu Anxiao was filled with excitement and joy. She clenched her fists and said with a smile, "Thank you, Shen Fengzi."
Feng Qishi asked, "What are you thanking me for?"
"I'm thanking you, just accept it, stop talking nonsense." Mu Anxiao nudged Feng Qishi's arm.
Mu Anxiao's experience last night was still vivid. She knew how serious her injuries were yesterday. Thinking that without Feng Qishi's help, she wouldn't have reached level ten spiritual energy, she wanted to thank him.
As for this reason, she was too shy to tell Feng Qishi.
"Mu Shazi, I really don't know what you're thinking," Feng Qishi muttered, touching his arm.
Mu Anxiao couldn't stop smiling, "Only now do I realize you're so useful. Not bad, not bad."
"What do you mean by that?"
"It means nothing," Mu Anxiao said with a smile, then turned her head and unintentionally looked at Chen, who descended from the sky.
Chen looked at Mu Anxiao's face with displeasure and said, "Mu Anxiao, did you not understand what I said?"
Hearing this, Feng Qishi followed Mu Anxiao's gaze towards Chen and froze.
