Ayao stared at Xu Mubai for a while, then suddenly realized, "It's you."
Immediately, her expression sharpened, and she adopted a wary look: "What do you want? Do you want to take back that blood shark? I've refined its entire body into pills."
“Fairy, you’ve misunderstood. I didn’t come here to take that blood shark,” Xu Mubai said. “But you attacked me without cause and snatched my prey. Shouldn’t you give me an explanation?”
Ayao snorted: "What if I don't give you an explanation?"
Xu Mubai: "..."
He thought the girl in purple was extremely savage and domineering, but he just couldn't help liking her.
"I only wish to know your name, fairy. If you tell me, all past grievances will be forgiven," Xu Mubai said with a smile. He was confident his attitude was already very polite, but A Yao coldly replied:
"Your name? Looking at your lecherous face, you just want to know my name? You must be thinking of all sorts of crazy things. You're trying to take advantage of me, aren't you?"
Xu Mubai's ears turned red, but thinking of that dream made him feel guilty. He did have improper thoughts about her, and being told so bluntly by A Yao made him very embarrassed. He said with a red face, "I... I didn't. It's not what you think."
Seeing his flushed face, Ayao found it amusing. But she still looked at Xu Mubai with icy indifference and said coldly, "Don't follow me anymore."
After saying that, he transformed into a purple rainbow and shot away into the distance.
Xu Mubai had waited for over twenty years to finally see A Yao, so he wasn't about to give up so easily. He immediately transformed into a streak of azure light and chased after her.
"Fairy, wait—"
————
In the mountains and forests, a purple figure walked ahead, followed by a blue figure.
The purple figure in front was a young girl wearing a purple gauze dress, while the cyan figure following behind her was a young and handsome man.
The mountain scenery was exceptionally serene. The morning sunlight pierced through the mist, casting beautiful golden rays through the forest. Many wildflowers, whose names I did not know, bloomed on the ground, attracting numerous butterflies to flutter about.
"How long are you going to follow me?" Ayao turned around and looked coldly at Xu Mubai behind her.
Xu Mubai stopped and looked at A Yao. A Yao was still veiled. When Xu Mubai met her beautiful sapphire eyes, cold as ice that had never melted for millennia, he felt as if her gaze was a knife piercing his heart, leaving it bleeding. He didn't know why he had become like this; seeing her was like being bewitched. No matter how fiercely she scolded him, he just followed her, completely captivated.
"Fairy, I just want to say a few more words to you." Xu Mubai's ears were red, and his voice was low.
"Do you know that following a girl around like that is called harassment? You shameless scoundrel!" Ayao said.
Xu Mubai looked at her, his ears turning even redder. But then he remembered how A Yao had stolen his prey first, and whispered, "Fairy, wasn't it shameless of you to steal my Blood Shark too?"
He chased that blood shark for two days, and he single-handedly killed it. Then she suddenly appeared and stole his prey. If it were anyone else, wouldn't that create an enemy?
She can take his things so rudely and domineeringly, but he can't be with her? What kind of logic is that? If she hadn't bothered him that day, none of this would have happened.
Thinking about it this way, Xu Mubai straightened his back.
He hardened his stance: "It was the fairy who provoked me first."
Ayao: "..."
Ayao turned her back, a burst of light emanating from her body, and flew forward. Xu Mubai immediately followed her, but Ayao deliberately ignored him and continued flying ahead.
She was just teasing him on purpose.
Xu Mubai followed A Yao in one direction until they arrived at the famous forbidden area of the Ancient Orchid Realm, the Duanshan Mountain.
This mountain range is steep and towering, with countless peaks reaching thousands of feet high. It was an ancient battlefield from the distant past, with dangerous restrictions and spatial rifts that have existed since ancient times. These spatial rifts have a powerful attraction, and even a Nascent Soul cultivator might not be able to escape them.
If they cannot escape, they will likely be swept into the spatial turbulence and perish, their bodies and souls extinguished.
Therefore, this is a place that most people don't come to.
Of course, the more dangerous the place, the more opportunities it holds.
The same applies to the Broken Mountain. Although dangerous, if one is lucky enough to obtain ancient refining materials, magical treasures left behind by ancient cultivators, or cultivation techniques, that would be a great opportunity. In addition, this place also harbors some rare and precious natural treasures. Therefore, despite its dangers, people still venture here periodically in search of such opportunities.
Xu Mubai followed A Yao to this Jin Duan Mountain, gazing at the distant, fog-shrouded area, and said:
"Fairy, have you come to this Broken Mountain in search of some spiritual herbs or materials for refining weapons?"
Ayao gave him a cold look: "What's it to you?"
Xu Mubai shut up, thinking to himself: This fairy has a really bad temper!
She was so mean and cold, yet he didn't take it to heart, wondering if his behavior was a bit pathetic.
But she was just too beautiful. Even if she spoke coldly to him, he was still happy to be by her side. At least she was talking to him.
Seeing A Yao fly towards the thick fog ahead, Xu Mubai followed beside her. Besides the ancient remnants of restrictions and spatial rifts, there were also dangerous demonic beasts here. Xu Mubai volunteered to act as her protector, killing or breaking any demonic beasts or restrictions they encountered. But even so, A Yao still didn't give him a friendly look, which made him very frustrated.
Several days later, A Yao and Xu Mubai arrived at a place that was the entrance to a huge cave.
At the entrance to the cave, there were many withered vines.
The entrance was about ten zhang high, and it was pitch black inside. Xu Mubai used his divine sense to probe it, but found that his divine sense could only penetrate a few dozen zhang before being blocked. He thought to himself: There must be something inside.
"Fairy, this seems to be an ancient cave dwelling of an ancient cultivator. There might be some fortuitous encounters inside. Fairy, is this your destination?"
Seeing that A-Yao was ignoring him again, she started walking forward. Xu Mubai followed, saying:
"Fairy, there are probably many restrictions and traps set up here. It's best to be careful."
"Shut up!" Ayao said coldly.
Doesn't she know what restrictions there are? What restrictions could possibly be difficult for her?
She had been cold to this guy for so many days, yet he still clung to her; he was truly blinded by lust.
Such a lecherous man needs to be taught a lesson.
