800: Overexcited

Overexcited

Lu Chengfeng was thinking about how to teach Ling Chuxi a lesson, but he did not consider the possibility that he might be the one who was taught a lesson instead.2

"Chuxi, the Ink Jade Crystals have arrived. You can treat Xiaomo now, right?" In the yard, Duan Feiyu asked Ling Chuxi, relieved that she was not angry with Lu Chengfeng.

"Of course, it's no problem, but where is Xiaomo?" Ling Chuxi asked with a teasing smile.

"Xiaomo! How could I forget him?" Duan Feiyu smacked his forehead and groaned. "I'll bring him over right away!" He called over his shoulder as he rushed out. When the Ink Jade Crystals arrived, he had been so excited that he had actually forgotten to bring Xiaomo!

Soon, Duan Feiyu returned to the courtyard with Duan Xiaomo.

"You wait here, I'll take Xiaomo in," Ling Chuxi said to Duan Feiyu, holding the box in one hand and Duan Xiaomo's hand in the other.

"Don't worry, I will stand guard for you. No one will break into this yard under my watch." Duan Feiyu solemnly drew out his sword, looking like he was about to face a great enemy.

Ling Chuxi secretly found it funny, but she also knew that he was actually very concerned about Duan Xiaomo.

Back in the room, Ling Chuxi asked Duan Xiaomo to sit down, then opened the box. A whole box full of Ink Jade Crystals! Their dazzling glow under the light of the lamp left her feeling dizzy.

Ling Chuxi's eyes glittered greedily as usual. Although she had no bad intentions when it came to the crystals, her heart was still beating like a drum. If these Ink Jade Crystals were replaced with gold and silver, she would probably have several mountains of them!

Ling Chuxi had to admit that she was quite materialistic—even though she knew the value of crystals was many times higher than gold and silver, she still favored the shiny gold and silver. She could not help but measure the value of things in gold and silver.

After a while, Ling Chuxi calmed down, and just like before, she held the Ink Jade Crystal in her palm and rubbed it gently. There was a soft buzzing from the Luo Chen Sword, and then the spiritual force of the crystals condensed into a line and was absorbed by the sword.

"You actually found so many Ink Jade Crystals!" In her mind, she heard the surprised voice of Cang Yuan. Even millions of years ago, Ink Jade Crystals were a rare treasure in the Sacred Realm of Sects. He didn't expect Ling Chuxi to find a whole box of them in just a few days!

"Didn't I tell you before? As long as you can cure him, you can have as many Ink Jade Crystals as you want. Do you believe me now? This many Ink Jade Crystals should be enough for your sword spirit to condense into a form, right?" Ling Chuxi said triumphantly. It was very satisfying to be able to surprise this ancient sword spirit. 

"Yes, it's most definitely enough." Cang Yuan trembled in excitement. For tens of thousands of years, he had been half asleep. He had never been able to merge with the other Cang Yuan Sword Shards, let alone take form with the condensation of his sword spirit.

As soon as the words were spoken, the entire box gave off a dazzling light, and all the Ink Jade Crystals turned into pure spiritual power, pouring towards the Luo Chen Sword like a flood.

In Ling Chuxi's mind, the connection with the Cang Yuan sword spirit became more intimate and clear. Ling Chuxi felt the sword spirit's excitement, and even heard the sound of him swallowing. 'This foodie hasn't eaten anything for tens of thousands of years, so he's definitely really hungry.' Ling Chuxi snorted, but there was a hint of affection in her gaze.
