Chapter 1266 – Holding Her Small Hand (4)
Shen Yanxiao finally calmed her mind and began to seriously cultivate her source of life.
She closed her eyes and soothed her soul, but there was a thing she failed to notice.
Someone across from her had been fixedly staring at her from the beginning to the end.
If Shen Yanxiao opened her eyes at this moment, she would see that the ice within those golden eyes had been
gradually disappearing; like the end of a cold winter, as the warm spring slowly returned to Earth.
Xiu quietly watched Shen Yanxiao, who was sitting before his eyes. Her face was beautiful and pure; such a
stunning appearance among human beings. However, among the elves and the gods, it was still not the most
beautiful.
But, perhaps because he had seen it for a long time now, Xiu felt that there should be nothing in the world that could
make him feel more comfortable than this face.
He was the War God, with the power to devour the force of the devils.
Whether it was a god or a devil, they were full of fear for him.
He was a temperamental individual. He would not even spare a glance or a word to anyone.
Shen Yanxiao did not know that the words Xiu had said to her over the years were more than everything he had said
in tens of thousands of years when he was still in the God Race…
Xiu had never even succumbed to the Lord God.
He had no idea when it started. He felt that talking to Shen Yanxiao was not a thing that made people feel
uncomfortable.
His pair of golden eyes wandered around her, trailing her long hair, skipping her closed eyes, crossing her sharp
nose, until they fell on her rosy lips.
……
Shen Yanxiao did not feel the passage of time as she cultivated; she only heard Xiu’s voice reminding her. She took
her spirit away from her source of life and opened her eyes in a daze.
The moment she opened her eyes, Xiu’ W s peerless, handsome face was instantly reflected in them
Shen Yanxiao’s heart lake that she had finally calmed down with great difficulty, once again set off a burst of waves
in a flash.
“It’s night.” Xiu looked at Shen Yanxiao, his eyes calm and without ripples.
“Oh…” Shen Yanxiao blinked her eyes. She remembered that she asked Xiu to wake her up.
“I am going to contact Vermillion Bird.” Shen Yanxiao somewhat awkwardly shifted her gaze away and dared not to
look at Xiu’s golden eyes that could suck in people’s soul. And so, her wandering eyes subconsciously fell on the
linked hands of the two of them. As a result, Shen Yanxiao’s face……
Turned red once again…
She immediately opened the spiritual link between her and Vermillion Bird and talked with him for a while. After
the last incident, even if Shen Yanxiao really had nothing important to say, she still decided to keep in touch with
Vermillion Bird.
Vermillion Bird settled in Jadeite City, and according to Shen Yanxiao’s instructions, the crystal coins he had
obtained from the Moonshine Trading House were spent for many grandmaster potions and bows.
All the grandmaster potions in the Jadeite City had been swept away by Vermillion Bird. It would take some time
for the shops to be filled up with new potions. Vermillion Bird planned to go to other white-level cities and even
black-level cities tomorrow to sweep their goods.
This time, Shen Yanxiao also asked Vermillion Bird to buy some formulas of grandmaster potions. Aside from
grandmaster potion formula, she also let Vermillion Bird look at the formulas of master and high-level potions and
buy some back.
After saying everything she needed to say, Shen Yanxiao cut off the spiritual link.
Without the proud little Vermillion Bird to talk to, Shen Yanxiao had to face Xiu by herself again.
“How do you feel? Is this speed better than the previous absorption?” Shen Yanxiao tried to find some “light”
subject to talk about.
“My corporeal body can absorb the dark elements slightly faster than before.” Xiu answered.
