Walking over to the crystal-fruit tree, its clean and refreshing smell filled the air and strands of purple fogs could be seen around it. Each individual crystal fruit was already the size of a calabash. They were clear and glistening like ice and sparkling with all sorts of colors. They looked nothing like fruits that were edible yet their aroma was delectable. One must appreciate how peculiar these fruits were!
“Young Mistress, these crystal fruits are edible now!”
Little Yuteng flew over and casually picked off a couple of them. She handed one over to Cheng Xiao Xiao and bit into the other one herself. As she ate, she nodded and said, “Young Mistress, it tastes pretty good. You should try it!”
With such a big piece of fruit in her hand, Cheng Xiao Xiao had a bit of an odd look on her. But she didn’t hesitate for too long before she, too, took a big bite into it just like Little Yuteng did.
It was crispy and its meat melted away the minute it hit her tongue. A very light hint of herb taste spread in her mouth and, most importantly, when the meat of the fruit entered into her stomach, she could feel a stream of spiritual qi slowly spreading out inside of her.
This was good stuff!
Cheng Xiao Xiao took one bite after another, treating it like just any other fruit.
Even Little Yuteng with her petite body was able to eat an entire fruit. Cheng Xiao Xiao smiled and asked, “This fruit made me felt so good after I have eaten it. Little Yuteng, do you think I can breakthrough?”
“You mean breakthrough to martial king now?” Little Yuteng, sitting on the crystal tree, immediately understood what she meant by that.
“Of course!”
Cheng Xiao Xiao nodded and carried on, “Shi mu and Aunty Gong will be breaking through in the next couple of days. Once they have done that, I will need to give the other old monsters an answer. I think it’s better if I breakthrough first.”
“Don’t worry, Young Mistress. Our dimension is already at level 112. The binding power of the contracts had also strengthened exponentially. Never mind just a few individuals, we will have nothing to worry about even if we bring in over 1,000 of them. Your words will be orders for them and your spiritual power is not something that they could resist. If they even so much as having the slightest evil thought toward us, we can make them disappear just like that!” said Little Yuteng with a proud look.
Cheng Xiao Xiao had more or less sensed that already. She knew that she didn’t have too much to worry about, but she still didn’t like to be too weak so she wanted to level up herself.
“Little Yuteng, cover for me. I want to become martial king today.”
“No problem, Young Mistress. Why don’t you have a few more crystal fruits then.”
Having said that, Little Yuteng handed her another fruit. Cheng Xiao Xiao asked as she was eating it, “Little Yuteng, how many of these do you want me to eat?”
“Hehe, the more the better, of course.”
“Ugh, you want to stuff me to death?”
“That’s not possible. Not even if you eat all the fruits on the entire tree, Young Mistress!”
“Ugh, you will be struck down by lightning for being so wasteful!”
“Don’t worry, Young Mistress. There’s no lightning in the dimension for the time being. Nothing will strike me.”
Cheng Xiao Xiao ate a total of four fruits as she was chatting with Little Yuteng before she finally stopped. If she ate anymore, she worried that the amount of mystical qi would kill her.
She crossed her legs and sat down and started reciting the mantra as Little Yuteng, once again, guided the mystical qi in the dimension to surround her.
Cheng Xiao Xiao had entered into the selfless point of consciousness.
Boundless mystical qi flooded like vast and mighty water that just broken through a dam and rolled nonstop into her body and quickly turned into the qi that was much needed by Cheng Xiao Xiao.
