Chapter 204 - The Ambiguity in the Bamboo Forest
In the depths of the bamboo forest.
Su Xing hummed a little tune as he continued to move forward. After walking for dozens of steps, a little white shadow jumped out.
It landed steadily in Su Xing’s arms.
Su Xing smiled faintly and said, “Little radish, little radish, are you depending on me? You mischievous little thing!”
“Meow! Meow!”
Perhaps it was an illusion, but a faint blush appeared on the snow-white Cat’s face, as if it was embarrassed by Su Xing’s words.
Su Xing narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at the snow-white cat in his arms. He smiled.
“Let’s go. Follow me to see if the other junior sisters are slacking off. Maybe we’ll meet you by chance.”
“Meow! Meow! Meow!”
Hearing this, little radish let out an excited cry. It seemed to be brimming with a smile as it revealed two small silver teeth.
Crash! Crash!
Bang!
Not far away, the sound of bamboo leaves rubbing against each other was heard. Finally, the sound of a heavy object landing on the ground could be heard.
A young girl with a pretty face and a red dress was holding a flaming longsword in her hand. She was trying her best to swing her sword at the bamboo.
As she swung her sword, the bamboo that was as thick as a thigh fell to the ground. When the bamboo fell to the ground, it had already been cut into dozens of sections.
Unknowingly, the sections of bamboo that were scattered in the bamboo forest were all over the ground.
Meanwhile, the girl was still swinging the flaming sword in her hand, repeating the mechanical movement of swinging the sword expressionlessly, over and over again, over and over again.
Because she could not use her spiritual power to support the movement, when Su Xing walked over, a few drops of sweat had already oozed out from the girl’s delicate face.
She remembered what senior brother Su Xing had said. To experience the life of a mortal, she had to be like a mortal.
A mortal would not use any spiritual power, so from the beginning to the end, she only relied on her physical strength to support herself. Although a cultivator’s physical strength was far stronger than that of an ordinary person, it was forbidden to use spiritual power to nourish them until they were exhausted.
However, if one wanted to experience the life of a mortal, one had to first learn to endure hardship. Otherwise, how could one comprehend the Great Dao from it?
The heaven’s favored daughter, the reincarnation of the empress, had a proud and aggressive nature!
At this moment, Su Yan ‘er also understood that in order to do some mortal things with Su Xing every day, her cultivation had reached an astonishing level. In her opinion, this was naturally inseparable from the so-called mortal life.
Therefore, when Su Xing proposed to let everyone experience the life of a mortal, she agreed without even thinking.
If Su Xing could do something that even a mortal body could do, as the Empress of the Fire Phoenix Divine Palace, how could she not be able to do it.
Suddenly, Su Yan ‘er’s expression became a little complicated.
“Su Yan ‘er, Su Yan ‘er, you joined sunset peak with full confidence and even said that you would take Su Xing as a male servant in the future. Now, it seems that it’s a little far off!”
That handsome face appeared in her mind, and as soon as it appeared, it sank into the deepest part of her mind.
Hu!
“I, Su Yan ‘er, am able to live a new life. I should be the favorite of this world. My ultimate goal is to ascend to the throne.”
Emperor’s talent? What a joke!
“There is no Emperor’s talent. If there is, then that person is the true emperor’s talent.”
With this thought in mind, the sword in Su Yan ‘er’s hand also began to become messy, and the long sword that she waved out happened to be stuck in the bamboo section.
HMM? Still can’t do it?
The long sword was pulled out forcefully, and Su Yan ‘er took a few steps back due to inertia.
Under the situation where she did not use her spiritual power, she was unable to react for a moment, and her entire body suddenly fell backward.
The surrounding bamboos had been cut down, and only half of the sharp bamboo roots were left on the ground. If she really fell on it, even though a cultivator’s body wouldn’t be injured, he would still be in a sorry state.
Su Yan ‘er also panicked for a moment and actually forgot to use her spiritual power to adjust her body.
“Junior Sister Yan ‘er, what are you thinking about? You’re so lost in thought!”
However, at this critical moment, a faint voice suddenly sounded from behind her. The owner of that voice, Su Yan ‘er, was extremely familiar.
It was Su Xing who had rushed over.
Following that, Su Yan ‘er felt a warm feeling coming from her waist. Her entire body suddenly stopped falling. With a turn of her gaze, that handsome face that was as gentle as jade suddenly appeared in her line of sight.
The moment it appeared, it overlapped with the figure in her mind.
At this moment, time seemed to have stopped.
In the lush bamboo forest, the mighty wind blew against the lush bamboo leaves, emitting waves of pleasant rustling sounds. The withered yellow bamboo leaves floated down with the wind, looking like a beautiful picture scroll.
The youth who lived in the middle, dressed in a green robe, looked at the young girl in his arms with a smile.
Bang Bang Bang!
Su Yan ‘er felt her heart beating faster and faster, just like a deer running. Once she set off, it was difficult for her to stop.
Damn it! How could she have such a charming smile..
That’s not right. As the empress, how could I have such a feeling? I must have gone mad. No, no, I can’t look into his eyes..,
but… his eyes… damn it, why can’t I look away.
Su Yan ‘er’s previous depression and helplessness had long disappeared into the clouds at this moment. Other than an inexplicable fascination, there was only a strange feeling in her heart.
And this was the first time she felt such a feeling as the empress.
She really wished that time could stop at this moment!
What she didn’t realize was that her eyes couldn’t help but reveal the fiery heat that Shen yaoling often displayed when facing Su Xing.
Eh? What happened to Junior Sister Yan ‘er?
Su Yan ‘er lay in Su Xing’s embrace with her eyes tightly shut. Her eyelashes were slightly trembling, and a hint of redness had unknowingly appeared on her face.
This scene made Su Xing somewhat puzzled.
Naturally, he didn’t know that his unintentional actions had left a deep mark in his junior sister’s heart.
This mark was the same as the mark on a spiritual artifact. Once it was branded, it was difficult to remove.
“Meow? ? ?”
At this moment, the snow-white Cat on Su Xing’s shoulder let out a long cry, as if it couldn’t understand human behavior.
Su Yan ‘er, who was immersed in an unknown feeling, was also awakened by this sudden cry.
Her first reaction was to activate her spiritual power. Then, she flashed away from the comfortable and mesmerizing embrace.
Seeing that Su Yan ‘er had already stood up, Su Xing didn’t know why, but he felt extremely regretful!
What a pity!
This little radish, whenever it couldn’t cry properly, it had to come and cause trouble at this time.
“Meow!”
Little radish cried out aggrievedly and stretched out its head to search Su Xing’s face.
This fawning action made Su Xing suspect that this fellow was about to become a demon!
Cough Cough!
“Junior Sister Yan ‘er, are you alright?”
“Yes!”
After experiencing the scene just now, Su Yan ‘er’s eyes became a little evasive, and her voice became a little weaker than usual.
“Senior brother, just now…”
“Oh, it’s okay. Just be careful next time!”
Su Yan ‘er blushed slightly and replied in a low voice.
