Chapter 91: Chapter 91: Farewell Moment
Outside the wooden house, a young girl in a plain white dress was sitting on a chair, her two delicate feet swaying back and forth, as she held the Rainbow Scroll in her hands, completely absorbed in reading it.
Suddenly, a Magic Beast fell from the sky, creating a five-meter deep crater in front of the wooden house. The splashing debris, mixed with blood and flesh, flew several meters away, showing how powerful the impact was!
Xiao Yi Xian quickly waved her hand to create a Qi barrier in front of her, avoiding getting splattered with debris on her face.
"Ugh! It's always like this. Can't you throw it further away?" Xiao Yi Xian lifted her head with a speechless expression. Above the sky, a black-winged figure swiftly flew by. The next moment, a hand landed on her shoulder from behind, startling her delicate body.
"Oh~ Xiao Yi Xian, I'm hungry. Go make me something to eat," Yun Tianming said. Early in the morning, he had been practicing Dou Techniques and hunting Magic Beasts, exhausting his energy greatly, so his stomach was rumbling.
"Eat your big head!" Xiao Yi Xian, with a frustrated face, turned around and kicked at his foot.
"Hmm? Trying to sneak attack me? You're far from it," Yun Tianming remained calm, casually grabbing her ankle.
"You!" Xiao Yi Xian blushed with embarrassment. "Let go, Yun Tianming, you stinky rascal!"
Caught off guard, Xiao Yi Xian's face flushed with embarrassment.
"Who told you not to wear shoes?" Yun Tianming retorted confidently, not letting go of her foot.
"Mind your own business!" This morning, while tending to the medicinal field, Xiao Yi Xian's shoes got quite muddy. This was unacceptable for her, as she loved cleanliness, so she washed them clean and set them aside to dry.
Yun Tianming guessed the situation and teased, "The medicinal field is fertilized with Magic Beast dung! It stinks!" With a disgusted expression, he released her foot.
"What? It's your feet that stink! I soaked them in Nectar Grass juice," Xiao Yi Xian insisted firmly.
"No way! Absolutely not!" Yun Tianming argued back.
Seemingly to defend her girl's dignity, Xiao Yi Xian emphatically stressed, "It's entirely possible!"
Yun Tianming deliberately made a suspicious expression. "You're just making that up!"
"Don't believe me? Take another sniff!"
Xiao Yi Xian became anxious and lifted her clean barefoot, offering it to him.
Yun Tianming was first surprised, then a strange expression appeared on his face.
Xiao Yi Xian also froze, realizing belatedly that her behavior was inappropriate. Her cheeks turned into a cute red balloon rapidly.
"Ahem~ Alright, I know your feet don't stink."
"Xiao Yi Xian, could you please go make some food first? I'm really hungry," Yun Tianming broke the awkward silence, waving his hand nonchalantly.
He remained composed; after all, he wasn't an inexperienced youngster. This level of physical contact meant nothing to him.
'It's nothing to be concerned about after what happened with Sister Yun'er!'
"Hmph! I'll poison you, you stinky rascal!" Xiao Yi Xian pouted at him, trying to look fierce, then rolled up her sleeves and picked up the Magic Beast that had been killed on the ground. Skilled in cooking, it didn't take long before a rich meat fragrance filled the air, tempting everyone's appetite.
"Xiao Yi Xian, you really have a talent for cooking. Any man who marries you will be lucky," Yun Tianming said, holding a piece of roasted leg meat and devouring it greedily.
Watching the young man eat voraciously in front of her, Xiao Yi Xian couldn't help but feel better. The Woeful Poison Body is a terrifying existence in the Dou Qi Continent, and yet this man, either oblivious or fearless, ate her food without any hesitation.
"Marry me?"
"Don't tease me. With my poisonous body, who would dare to marry me?" Xiao Yi Xian chuckled bitterly.
"I would," Yun Tianming replied casually after finishing a leg of roasted meat, then picked up a bowl of meat soup and started drinking it.
"Tianming, what did you just say?" Xiao Yi Xian suddenly looked up, her face filled with hope as she stared at him.
"Let's not get ahead of ourselves. I only said I dare to marry you, not that I will marry you," Yun Tianming said earnestly.
"Speaking of which, with your petite frame right now, it's still ten years too early to talk about marriage!" he added with a serious tone.
"You..." Xiao Yi Xian widened her eyes at his words, her mouth opening but finding herself unable to retort. It was frustrating!
After satisfying their hunger and thirst—
The two inadvertently locked eyes and unexpectedly sensed an unusual feeling from each other's gaze.
"I see."
"It seems we have quite an understanding," Yun Tianming chuckled lightly.
"Yes."
"It's also time for us to part ways," Xiao Yi Xian smiled in return.
Deep in the Magic Beast Mountains, resembling a paradise, the two had lived together for half a year. However, they both knew they couldn't stay there forever.
"After leaving here, where do you plan to go?" Yun Tianming asked.
"I plan to leave the Jia Ma Empire, maybe go to the Chu Yun Empire to take a look, and then travel around the continent," Xiao Yi Xian replied, a hint of confusion flickering in her eyes. She didn't have a specific plan for her future, so she could only take it step by step.
"The Chu Yun Empire, huh?" Yun Tianming wasn't surprised by her answer.
According to the original text, the Chu Yun Empire is known for producing poison masters, and the land is filled with poisonous substances. For Xiao Yi Xian, who possesses the Woeful Poison Body, it's undoubtedly the best destination.
"I'll probably make a trip to the Tager Desert for training, seeking an opportunity to break through to the Dou Grandmaster level. Also, to find some things," Yun Tianming's eyes shimmered slightly. The Tager Desert is a very important plot point, involving the Heavenly Flame, Snake People Tribe, and Qing Lin.
'My fellow Xiao Yan, your luck is so good, can you spare me a tiny bit of your fortune?' Yun Tianming thought, making the decision happily!
"Tager Desert? If I remember correctly, that should be on the eastern border of the Jia Ma Empire, while the Chu Yun Empire is in the western part of the Jia Ma Empire," Xiao Yi Xian sighed regretfully. "If our paths diverge, we'll be separated from the beginning."
"No worries, the Dou Qi Continent is vast," Yun Tianming reassured her. "If it's meant to be, we'll meet again in the future."
Yun Tianming placed his hands on Xiao Yi Xian's soft shoulders. "Xiao Yi Xian, I..."
Xiao Yi Xian pursed her lips, her gaze wandering as if she had made a significant decision. She then plunged into his embrace, tightly wrapping her arms around his waist.
"Xiao Yi Xian?"
"Wait, don't misunderstand! It's just a hug between friends," Xiao Yi Xian's shy voice was as soft as a whisper, burying her face deeply in his chest.
"Alright then," Yun Tianming shrugged, openly embracing the girl in his arms. He could feel the slender waist in his hands, barely enough to fill his grip. Surprisingly, ripples of emotion stirred in his calm heart.
"Don't let your thoughts run wild, idiot!"
