Yan Hua thought hard for a while, but her little head still couldn’t come up with any other solutions.
“Junior Sister, I can’t think of any other way.”
“Junior Sister, you’d better endure the pain. Just now you said you weren’t afraid, so you can’t go back on your word. Hold on, it’ll be over soon, Master’s mission is important.”
“No, I can’t hold on.”
Mu Chenxi hurriedly shook her head in refusal.
“If that’s no good, how about coming into my body? That way, with my power, wouldn’t you become stronger? This one’s even simpler, you just need to stay still.”
Yan Hua circled back to her original idea.
“That’s not okay either…”
Mu Chenxi quickly waved her hands.
She was afraid that if she answered too slowly, Yan Hua would act without warning and arrange for her to ‘reunite’ with Master in the temple of the five viscera.
“This won’t do, that won’t do, then Junior Sister will have to think of a way herself. Look again, is there anything else I can do to help you?”
Yan Hua spoke as she stuck out her tongue and licked the sugar stains on the oil paper bag.
“I’ll think of a way myself then… By the way, Yan Hua, how did you become so strong?”
Mu Chenxi suppressed her anxiety and decided to guide her patiently.
“Actually, I can’t remember too clearly either. I just went to sleep, and when I woke up, I suddenly became stronger. Also, I can sense Master’s position. When I use this power, I can quickly get to her side.”
As she finished, Yan Hua had already licked the oil paper bag clean.
She handed it to Mu Chenxi.
Mu Chenxi had no choice but to take it, feeling a bit helpless as she looked at the oil paper bag covered in saliva.
Not wanting to upset Yan Hua, she silently put the oil paper bag into her Storage Pouch and continued to ask, “Yan Hua, do you know how you fainted back then?”
“I actually remember that a little. That night, I secretly kissed Master while she was sleeping.”
“Master’s lips were soft, fragrant, and had a lot of elasticity.”
Yan Hua smacked her lips as she spoke, as if still savoring the sensation.
Mu Chenxi felt a strange wave of jealousy rise in her heart.
So Master’s first kiss had already been taken by Yan Hua?
She couldn’t suppress her jealousy and said, “How could you kiss her without Master’s permission?”
As soon as she finished, Mu Chenxi regretted it.
Was this the time to get caught up in such things?
The most important thing was to become stronger.
How could she not resist asking such questions?
Besides, she wasn’t any better herself—she had also forcibly kissed Master while not in her right mind…
As she thought about it, Mu Chenxi was filled with complex emotions.
“Well… I guess that wasn’t right. But Master won’t blame me. She loves me the most.”
Yan Hua had the look of “I know it’s wrong, but I’d still do it next time.”
“Let’s not talk about that. After you kissed Master, what happened?”
Mu Chenxi quickly brought the topic back.
“After kissing Master, I fainted! At that moment, my heart was beating really fast, then everything went black. When I woke up again, I had this different kind of power.”
Mu Chenxi was completely confused.
She had also kissed Master and was indeed greatly affected, but her power had actually decreased.
Why was Yan Hua’s reaction after kissing Master so different?
Maybe it was because Yan Hua’s body constitution was special…
Mu Chenxi decided to be direct.
“Yan Hua, do you know any powerful techniques or secret arts?”
“Nope. Master said I don’t need to learn those things. She told me she’d always protect me.”
“But now, I can also protect Master.”
As Yan Hua spoke, she touched her stomach, as if communicating with Bai Yue in that way.
Mu Chenxi sighed.
It seemed unlikely she’d find a way to increase her power from Yan Hua.
After all, everyone’s opportunities were different—there’s no use forcing it.
But soon, she thought of a new method.
If she couldn’t directly become stronger herself, then she could borrow Yan Hua’s power and let her help find opportunities elsewhere.
The first places she thought of were the Violet Blossom Secret Realm and the mysterious hill she had sensed before.
Both places were extremely dangerous, but they also likely hid great fortunes.
With a plan formed, Mu Chenxi turned to Yan Hua.
“Yan Hua, can you take me somewhere?”
“Sure! I also want to take Master out for a stroll. Where do you want to go?”
Yan Hua was a little impatient, reaching out to touch her flat stomach again.
Mu Chenxi raised her hand and pointed into the distance.
“In the direction of the Ancient Battlefield.”
“No problem. Should we go now?”
Yan Hua asked.
“Yes, let’s go now.”
Mu Chenxi nodded.
Seeing her nod, Yan Hua grabbed Mu Chenxi’s remaining arm without hesitation and activated her unique Escape Technique.
A blood-red glow flowed over her entire body, as if burning flesh and blood to drive the Escape Technique.
The flesh burned and then squirmed and regrew with astonishing recovery.
Mu Chenxi sucked in a breath of cold air.
Yan Hua couldn’t possibly be just an ordinary little girl…
Yan Hua tightly held Mu Chenxi’s hand and flew towards the Ancient Battlefield.
Mu Chenxi was carried by Yan Hua, the scenery around her retreating rapidly—much faster than her own sword-riding speed.
Fortunately, she possessed the Cold Ice Profound Body, and her body was tough enough—otherwise, the force alone would have injured her.
However, carrying someone still slowed Yan Hua’s speed.
After flying for less than half a day, a sinister voice suddenly echoed.
“So you even found reinforcements?”
The Fire Demon’s figure appeared out of nowhere, blocking their path, its eyes fixed on Mu Chenxi.
“Is the secret of the Mysterious Woman Beyond the Heavens on you?”
Its tone was vicious.
“Tell me your secrets, or I’ll burn you into ashes like your Master!”
“Master? What did you just say?”
Yan Hua suddenly looked up, the Fire Demon’s words stabbing into her heart like a needle.
“I said I’ll send you and your dead Master to reunite!”
The Fire Demon answered arrogantly.
Hearing this, Yan Hua was indeed provoked again.
The light in her eyes vanished, replaced by a cold killing intent.
Her crimson hair turned black at a visible speed.
The aura of spiritual power around her soared, making the air itself seem to freeze.
Mu Chenxi stood to the side, feeling an invisible pressure pressing down, making even breathing difficult.
The Fire Demon sensed the danger too, but kept up its bravado.
“Just a snot-nosed brat—do you think you can cause trouble?”
Even as it spoke, the Fire Demon wasn’t foolish.
Before its words finished, it launched a sudden, underhanded attack.
A scorching ball of fire blasted toward Yan Hua!
The flame struck her, instantly turning Yan Hua into a figure of fire.
The Fire Demon thought its sneak attack would finish Yan Hua, a cruel smile forming.
But in the next second, the smile froze.
Yan Hua, engulfed in flames, was completely unharmed—the fire on her body extinguished on its own.
She instantly appeared before the Fire Demon and punched.
The Fire Demon didn’t even have time to scream before it exploded into a cloud of blood mist.
After dealing with the Fire Demon, Yan Hua’s pupils remained pitch black—her mind blank, unable to distinguish friend from foe.
Her deep gaze turned to Mu Chenxi.
