Leng Ningyue realized she was really in trouble, and had no choice but to obediently walk over.
The four female disciples, as onlookers, were no exception, but they didn't get too close, chattering away from a distance.
“Come on, to prove I’m not lying to you, I’ll count to three and say the name of our hometown with her.”
Wang Feng looked at Jiang Hanxi solemnly and spoke, which made Jiang Hanxi believe him a little bit.
"three."
"two."
"one!"
"Blue Star!" "Blue Star!"
Two voices spoke simultaneously, almost as soon as they finished counting the words.
"And I swear! I didn't know her at all when I was back on Earth!"
Wang Feng moved closer to Jiang Hanxi, raised his arm with the corroded wound, held up three fingers, and quickly recited his oath.
"Now you believe me, right?"
Wang Feng raised his hand with a helpless expression and spoke softly to Jiang Hanxi.
"Then why did you keep saying you wanted to give her something?"
Jiang Hanxi felt very strange when she thought about this. Since the two of them were completely unrelated, why did they have to do this?
"Hmm? Sending something? What kind of thing?"
Leng Ningyue was stunned when she heard this, and asked twice in a row, "Has Wang Feng, this fellow villager, ever given her anything?"
"Gong... Sister, I only remember that my junior brother Wang Feng took a bunch of resources from me several years ago, but I don't remember him ever returning them to me, let alone giving me anything."
Leng Ningyue looked at Wang Feng. She had remembered this incident for a long time, and thinking about it now still made her feel a little heartbroken.
"I... I just wanted you to accept the gift I gave you..."
Wang Feng's voice sounded a little guilty, and he spoke softer and softer as he spoke.
Even if Jiang Hanxi was foolish, she couldn't be so foolish as to be an idiot; she understood immediately.
The bad mood vanished instantly, even the cold gaze softened, and I felt a surge of joy.
"hand."
"ah?"
Wang Feng was stunned for a moment until Jiang Hanxi took her hand for the first time.
Jiang Hanxi's palms were soft and smooth, with a warm yet slightly cool sensation that felt very comfortable.
Amidst the stunned gazes of Leng Ningyue and Wang Feng, Jiang Hanxi took out a silk cloth and poured in top-grade spiritual energy.
Finally, it carefully tied a bow in Wang Feng's hand. Although it was a little rough, it was enough to make Wang Feng's face light up with joy.
Am I also... part of the process of enhancing the relationship between you two [ ]?
Leng Ningyue stood there, stunned. In that instant, she suddenly longed for a male companion too!
Looking at Wang Feng's handsome face, I thought, "No, no, I can't handle this. I might lose my life."
Forget it, I'm not worthy.
Leng Ningyue was on the verge of tears. All the palace rules, her status as a saintess, the time allotted for cultivation, her master, and so on, were restricting her from finding a male companion.
"So, can we go now?"
Seeing Wang Feng still grinning foolishly, Leng Ningyue experienced for the first time how Wang Feng felt when he looked at her, and asked.
"Wait a minute, pick up the etched crystal ore on the ground. I know where the exit is, so it's not urgent to leave later."
Wang Feng called out, and Leng Ningyue's eyes lit up when she heard the words "corrosion crystal mine".
Not only Leng Ningyue, but also the four female disciples standing beside her.
They had only seen these etched crystals in books and hadn't recognized them at first.
This type of ore is extremely rare, and it must be obtained by stealing it from evil spirits at the Breaking Yuan Realm, making it incredibly difficult to acquire.
However, if sold to members of those poisonous sects, it would definitely fetch a considerable amount of spirit stones.
It can also be used to add corrosive and toxic effects to one's own weapons.
The corrosiveness of this etched crystal ore is so strong that even a Heavenly Origin Realm expert could be injured by it.
"Um, Junior Brother Wang Feng, could we pick a few too? Just seven or eight will do."
Leng Ningyue wanted to gently nudge Wang Feng's arm to remind him, but then seemed to remember something and stopped herself.
"Go ahead and pick them up, I'll give you ten each."
Looking at the ground where he had just looted, there were still many corroded crystal ores left. Without being stingy, Wang Feng readily agreed.
Wang Feng then removed the Other Shore Soul-Destroying Array from the passage.
They didn't stand on ceremony then, thanked them, and went over to pick it up.
"Hey, honey, do you want some?"
Wang Feng moved closer to Jiang Hanxi, extremely close, and asked with a cheerful smile.
"Wife?"
Jiang Hanxi looked puzzled, her delicate brows furrowing slightly as she stared at Wang Feng and asked him a couple of questions.
"It means... what my wife means."
Jiang Hanxi was stunned for a moment, and when she came to her senses, her cheeks flushed red.
"Don't you like it? Do you feel like I'm making you look old?"
Wang Feng seemed genuinely concerned for Jiang Hanxi, but his next words immediately left Jiang Hanxi even more bewildered.
"So... I'll call you 'wife' next time."
After Wang Feng finished speaking, he stared intently at Jiang Hanxi, staring intently without looking away for a moment.
It wasn't until Jiang Hanxi turned to look at the wall that she realized how shy she would look at it.
He quickly turned around and looked at Leng Ningyue, who was hunched over with her big butt facing them, and was reaching out to pick up the corroded crystal ore from the ground.
Taking advantage of her inattention, Wang Feng gently pinched her soft little face, preparing to take her over to collect the corrosive crystal ore.
