Chapter 885: Delicate Night (9)

“Ahem… have you recovered?” Shen Yanxiao patted her stifling chest.
Did he have to be so scary? He left and came so suddenly. Fortunately, she had a brave enough heart. Otherwise, she would have a heart attack.
Xiu’s handsome face was still as cold as before. When he heard Shen Yanxiao’s words, a trace of doubt flashed past his eyes.
“Recovered?”
Shen Yanxiao forced herself to swallow the apple, her face still flushed. She pointed at Xiu and then at herself.
“Didn’t you say that forming a corporal body was exhausting? That night, you suddenly disappeared. I tried calling for you, but you were not responding. So, I went to the Heart Lake to look for you, but I saw you recuperating there.” She did not go there to cause any trouble, she was a good girl, okay?
Xiu frowned. But as he looked at the black crystal in Shen Yanxiao’s arms, he seemed to have understood something.
Shen Yanxiao smiled when he locked his gaze onto the black crystal.
“I thought that since you need to absorb the dark elements inside it to recuperate, I should hold it everytime I cultivate. Aren’t I smart?” Shen Yanxiao looked at Xiu with a smile. She was so close to swinging her fluffy tail back and forth.
Xiu narrowed his eyes.
Was that the reason she had been hugging the black crystal?
“Yes, you are very smart.” Xiu’s voice did not fluctuate much, but it could not deny that he was praising Shen Yanxiao.
Shen Yanxiao, who had been beaten by Xiu for days, finally received his affirmation, and the smile on her face deepened.
“By the way, have you recovered?” Shen Yanxiao blinked as she looked at Xiu. He should have recovered by now, right?
Xiu was silent for a moment before he nodded.
Shen Yanxiao smiled.
“Then, can you continue guiding me tonight?” After that night of guidance, Shen Yanxiao had completely let go of the grudge of Xiu accidentally killing her. She waited eagerly for a certain Great Master to give her some pointers.
“No.” Xiu immediately rejected that thought.
“What?”
As he looked at Shen Yanxiao’s doubtful expression, Xiu slowly said, “It is just too slow. You should look for other opponents yourself and I will tell you what you need to pay attention to after the battle. Your unilateral attacks will not reveal your full strength.”
“You’re right.” Shen Yanxiao nodded obediently. She did not doubt Xiu’s words at all.
In any case, Xiu was doing all this for her sake. There was no need to resist.
“Then, should I find some advanced-ranked demons to fight in the mountains?” Shen Yanxiao’s large eyes darted around excitedly. She had been here for half a month but she had not seen a single demon. She wondered if the demons had huddled themselves in a hole somewhere.
“Sure.” Xiu had no objection.
He seemed to have thought of something as he looked at the black crystal on Shen Yanxiao’s lap and frowned.
“In the future, when you sleep at night, don’t hug this thing anymore.” The black crystal contained dark elements that were extremely cold. When she trained and was awake, she could activate her battle aura and magic to resist the cold. However, when Shen Yanxiao fell asleep, the coldness of the black crystal would make her uncomfortable.
“Eh?” How did Xiu know that she would hug the black crystal when she slept?
Did he discover it when he absorbed the dark elements?
“It’s not like I want to hug this crystal. I just want you to recuperate as soon as possible,” Shen Yanxiao muttered as she obediently stuffed the black crystal back into her interspatial ring.
