Chapter 504: Herein (18)
"I guess our suspicions about him from before have stuck with him subconsciously." Jiuzhou sighed as he looked at him. "Our shared origins made him rely on me, but in fact, he was also wary of me at first."
Xing Wu pursed his lips, feeling somewhat guilty. Although he had waited for His arrival with great anticipation for the next million years, he was also afraid that He would do harm to Jiuzhou at the beginning.
Spirits born between heaven and earth should be fearless and free.
Jiuzhou patted his shoulder and said, "Sincerity is rewarded with sincerity. Don't feel too guilty. Trying to make amends out of guilt is not pure."
"Yes." Xing Wu hugged Him and turned away. "Are you tired of seeing Him? This is the first time I've seen Him. I'll take Him away."
Jiuzhou hooked her fingers around the back of his collar, "That won't do. If he can't see me, he'll hide away soon. It took me over a year to get him to stop being wary of me. You can't even coax him after just meeting him."
"Then come with me. Don't tell them yet. I haven't even warmed up to them yet."
"Then I can't be partial to one and ignore the other, right?" As soon as He left the starry space, the elements between heaven and earth were everywhere, and Qi Shuo and the others would soon notice the difference.
Xing Wu found a good feng shui spot to set up his Demon God Temple, walked in, and sat on the throne holding the little spirit ball. "Have you given it a name?"
"No."
"Just now I heard you call him Little Dumpling, it seems quite fitting. Let's call him that for now, and we can pick a full name later." Xing Wu poked him and used his divine power to help him absorb the power from the immortal grass. "Such a rich power of the laws of Taoism."
"Strange, it took millions of years to form. Is it because the innate energy has decreased?"
Jiuzhou sat across from him. "That's partly the reason, but it wouldn't take millions of years. His existence was a pleasant surprise. Perhaps he brought some kind of opportunity with him."
Half a day later, Xiao Lingtuan woke up and went to find Jiuzhou first. When he found that he was not being held by Jiuzhou, he became uneasy.
Xing Wu held him down and poked him. "You ate the immortal grass and fell asleep. You're even younger than I thought. Do you still remember who I am?"
Seeing Jiuzhou sitting opposite him, Xiao Lingtuan felt relieved, "Brother Xingwu."
"Hmm." Xing Wu tickled Him with her fingertips and said with a smile, "You've been with Jiuzhou for so long. How many days can you stay here with me? When you've had enough fun, I'll send you back to Jiuzhou."
As he spoke, he poured a cup of spiritual tea and fed it to Him, "Want to drink? This is the tea of vitality. You should like it."
The little spirit ball took a sip hesitantly, then quickly finished the tea, floating back into Jiuzhou's arms and nuzzling, "Brother Jiuzhou."
"Yeah." Jiuzhou nodded at Him with a smile.
Xing Wu propped up her head and looked at Him, saying resentfully, "You drank my tea and then ran back to Jiuzhou. You have no conscience."
Xiao Lingtuan ignored him and rolled into Jiuzhou's sleeve, hiding himself tightly.
Xing Wu quickly moved and sat next to Jiuzhou, poking him. He moved a little and nestled in another place.
Xing Wu poked him again, and he moved away again.
Finally, He rolled out of Jiuzhou's sleeve angrily and scolded him: "You annoying dumpling!"
Xing Wu lifted Him into her arms, "Why are you hiding? I'm not going to eat you."
He hummed twice, stepped on the palm of his hand, and then quietly observed his expression. Seeing that he was smiling, he stepped on it twice more before floating back to Jiuzhou's shoulder with satisfaction.
Xing Wu hooked her finger, picked him up and poked him.
The little spirit rolled into his sleeve and wrapped himself up completely with his sleeve, "Don't bother me."
Xing Wu took out a plate of small pastries and said, "Want to eat? They're delicious."
After a while, He stretched out a small part and carefully picked it out piece by piece.
Xing Wu took Him out of his sleeve and rubbed Him. "Why are you doing this secretly? All of this is yours."
He nibbled on it piece by piece, and only rubbed his wrist when he was happy.
"The little guy is quite hard to please." Xing Wu chuckled.
Jiuzhou played chess with him on the side, occasionally glancing at him.
"Little Dumpling, why don't you stay here tonight? The Star Space is not far away. If you don't like it, you can go back anytime."
Xiao Lingtuan paused while chewing the cake, then continued chewing after a while and asked, "Will there always be something this delicious?"
"Yes, you can eat anything you want."
"Okay then. I'll stay for one night and go back to Brother Jiuzhou tomorrow." He moved to Jiuzhou's side. "Brother Jiuzhou, if you have to come pick me up, don't forget me."
"Okay, I won't forget." Jiuzhou stroked Him comfortingly.
Before Jiuzhou left in the evening, Xiao Lingtuan was reluctant to leave for a long time, and was then carried by Xingwu to the throne.
The gentle divine power was transmitted into the body from the throne, and the little spirit was stunned.
Xing Wu sat cross-legged in front of the throne and nodded at Him, "Are you comfortable?"
He nodded honestly.
"When you come here in the future, you can sit here. This is the most comfortable place here." He found many treasures and refined them into this throne.
The little spirit curled up for a while, then rolled to his side, "Brother Xingwu, do you like me?"
"Of course I do."
"But I remember that you didn't like me before." The little spirit said in a low voice.
He will not harm Brother Jiuzhou, nor will he harm Jiuzhou.
Suddenly, something stuck in my heart, a sour and bitter feeling that wouldn't go away. Xing Wu gently stroked Him, "I'm sorry, little dumpling."
"Two rules appearing on the same interface is unprecedented. Jiuzhou is very important to us. Just as he watched you grow, he also watched us grow. It's inevitable that we will be more concerned about him."
"Brother Xingwu doesn't dislike you. Please forgive Brother Xingwu, okay?" Xingwu lowered her head and kissed Him. "We've been waiting for you with endless anticipation. How could we not like you?"
"Just be happy, okay? This world is vast, and anywhere is your home. Don't be afraid, don't worry that we won't like you."
"You are the variable, and that is the variable we expect."
The little spirit floated into his arms and nuzzled into his arms, "Okay."
Xing Wu hugged him and caressed him, then looked at the shadow beside him and met his gaze silently.
How can you open your heart if you have grudges in your heart?
"So, little Dumpling, did it take you so long to show up because you were worried that we wouldn't like you?"
"Some of it was, but a voice told me not to take shape so quickly and to eat more delicious food so that I could become stronger in the future. So I kept waiting and eating, and not long ago, the voice told me it was okay, and I took shape."
"Delicious?" Xing Wu rubbed him. "Is it the energy of heaven and earth?"
"I think so. It feels so good after eating it."
"Do you know what that sound is?"
"I don't know. His voice makes me feel warm and at ease. It seems to come from the past, but also from the future. It feels so far away from me."
Xing Wu placed Him back on the throne and nodded at Him, "Our little Dumpling really has a great background."
"I like it!" The little spirit rolled on the throne.
"What do you like?"
"us."
Xing Wu smiled, "Well, our little dumpling. So, will our little dumpling still stay at Brother Xing Wu's place tomorrow?"
