A Face Full of Cuteness

The Great Taixu Realm is vast, and after undergoing a transformation, it becomes even more expansive and diverse.

The vast territory stretches as far as the eye can see, and the horizon seems to extend even further. But that is only the horizon you can see. When you stand on that horizon and look into the distance again, you will see another horizon.

Such a vast territory tempts one to explore it thoroughly, but unfortunately, Jingwei has no such leisure at the moment. If it were before, she might have traveled everywhere and seen the entire Taixu Realm, but now...

"Crimson Kite is still waiting for me; I can't let other things distract me."

Shaking her head to banish the idyllic imagery from her mind, Jingwei's crimson eyes once again gazed upon the vast sea of trees, which exuded an endless, majestic aura and was brimming with vitality.

That was the aura emanating from countless spiritual plants, which had a fatal attraction for them, the spirit beasts. Unfortunately, it was no longer of any use to Jingwei, as her current cultivation level meant she no longer needed it.

But even a small amount of energy can accumulate over time. If there is enough, even Jingwei would change color. So wouldn't it be better to use it to replenish Fu Hua's energy?

Without hesitation, Jingwei transformed into a streak of crimson light and disappeared into the endless sea of trees.

Behind where she had been standing, a soft hissing sound rang out, and a figure in moon-white emerged. Her long silver hair was stained with some grass, making her look slightly disheveled. There were a few scratches on her delicate face, which were made when she was quickly traversing the jungle, but they disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Her bright, dark eyes scanned her surroundings, while her delicate nose twitched as she discerned the scents in the air.

"Hmm! It should be this direction. That crimson light came from within Taixu Mountain. She must know how to get in." Little Yue'er frowned, gazing into the distance towards Taixu Mountain.

There was a smooth wall with the words "Taixu Mountain" written on it. The three words were unremarkable, but when you looked closely, they seemed to have countless sharp edges that were dazzling and made it impossible to look directly at them.

Those were three characters carved with a sword; their sheer power was enough to stop countless spirit beasts in their tracks.

Lang Ya was right, but since no one had ever actually seen an immortal, the credibility was lacking. As a result, over the years, many spirit beasts had transformed into human form and entered the mountains relying on their own strength, only to perish in the end.

As a result, Taixu Mountain became a taboo for all spirit beast clans. But today, a mischievous girl appeared, wanting to find a way to enter the mountain, so she set her sights on Jingwei.

Indeed, Jingwei's attention is currently focused on finding spiritual plants and herbs rich in energy for Fu Hua, so she has overlooked a certain little troublemaker who has been following her around all along.

The little rascal is quite capable; otherwise, even a distracted Jingwei wouldn't have been completely unaware.

Little Yue'er followed closely behind Jingwei, like a ghostly figure, Youyou and eerie, which added to the sense of unsettling eeriness.

Light footsteps, landing silently

A white shadow followed closely behind Jingwei, traversing the mountains and rivers.

"My goodness! What is this thing doing? Why is it just circling around this continent?" Little Yue'er stopped and looked at Jingwei, who was bending over to pick something.

After leaving Taixu Mountain, we traveled fifty miles north, stopping and starting along the way. Sometimes we would jump up a tree to pick spiritual fruits, and sometimes we would bend down to pick spiritual plants. When we had picked most of the spiritual fruits and plants in a patch, we would immediately head to the next place without stopping at all.

Sometimes Little Yue'er would wonder if the other person had already discovered her, but seeing how busy the other person was, it didn't seem like it, and she was also very confident in her ability to hide herself.

You must know that she is a spirit born from the heavens and earth, feeding on the essence of the Sun Moon. You could say that she is the darling of this Taixu Realm, but she doesn't know where she came from.

Just as Sun Wukong sprang from a stone, she seemed to have appeared from somewhere as well. When she opened her eyes, what she saw was the Lang Ya tribe.

They seemed to be kneeling before her, their eyes filled with awe, as if her birth were something extraordinary.

However, like a newborn child, Little Yue'er's mind was still in its infancy, and she didn't care at all about the awe these people showed her.

The name Little Yue'er was chosen because she felt closer to Yuehua.

Seeing Jingwei get up again, Little Yue'er suppressed her fatigue and focused her attention.

However, this time Jingwei headed towards Taixu Mountain, which made her breathe a sigh of relief. If they had continued their sweeping, she would have definitely gone back first and waited for them at the foot of Taixu Mountain.

Watching Jingwei's figure vanish into a crimson light, Little Yue'er's figure disappeared into the forest once more, transforming into a beam of moonlight and chasing after her.

In the air, Jingwei frowned slightly, as if sensing something. She looked behind her with her crimson eyes, but all she saw was darkness and the bright moon hanging high in the sky.

A day has passed.

"How quickly time flies!" Jingwei exclaimed.

Speaking of which, since Jingwei and the others returned to the Taixu Realm, she had been so busy with Fu Hua's affairs that she hadn't noticed anything. Only now that she had stopped did she realize the passage of time within the Taixu Realm.

"It seems... to have a faster time flow than in the Douluo Continent."

Whether it was a misperception or not, Jingwei had this feeling, and just now, it seemed as if a faint figure was following closely behind her. However, the bright moon in the sky was as clear as day, illuminating all the shadows below.

Jingwei also tried to search with her mind, but found nothing, and shook her head in frustration.

"It seems I was being too nervous."

A flash of crimson light, and it shot straight towards Taixu Mountain.

Behind her, Little Yue'er, who had been desperately concealing her aura, breathed a sigh of relief. If it weren't for the fact that it was nighttime and she was in harmony with the moonlight, using it to blend into nature and deceive Jingwei's detection, she would have been able to escape.

Otherwise, it will definitely be terrible.

Little Yue'er is very mischievous, but she knows what's important and won't swagger behind the other person.

"Phew! How terrifying. It seems what Lang Ya said might not be false; just one look from him is enough to terrify."

He patted his chest, still shaken, as waves rippled around him.

The white light flashed again, catching up with the crimson light that Jingwei had transformed into. However, this time it learned its lesson and simply hung at a distance, not getting close.

Both were very strong, and they covered a distance of less than a hundred miles in an instant. Before them was Taixu Mountain. The crimson light did not stop at all and rushed directly into Taixu Mountain, while the white light paused slightly before entering again.

Two beams of light entered one after the other without causing any disturbance. The former was due to the strength of the beams, while the latter was due to its extraordinary concealment.

Before the Bitter Bamboo Forest, Jingwei stopped, her crimson eyes fixed on it. After a short while, she walked into the forest without stopping. Ten seconds later, Little Yue'er appeared.

Looking at the Bitter Bamboo Forest blocking his way, he rested his chin on his hand in deep thought.

"This bamboo forest is that strange place. Every time you enter, you find yourself wandering out without realizing it. It's like a maze. Those reckless fools must have met their end here! There seems to be something even more terrifying inside."

Little Yue'er's dark eyes were bright, and her delicate nose was still twitching. The air was filled with the scent of bitter bamboo and the fragrance of Jingwei.

This is why she was able to keep up with Jingwei even from a great distance.

Dog nose

"Hmph! I'd like to see what's inside Taixu Mountain!"

Without stopping, they followed in Jingwei's footsteps once more, this time without any hindrance.

Taixu Mountain, Zhishui Lake

Jingwei had already put the collected medicinal plants full of spiritual energy into the lake. At first, the lake was calm, but soon the calm lake surface suddenly shone with a three-colored divine light, just like when Fu Hua first entered.

But it was just a fleeting glimpse, disappearing in just three seconds, leaving the Zhishui Lake as lifeless as ever.

Jingwei frowned

"What happened? Why is this happening?"

After a flash, silence returned. Could it be...?

"It's because the energy is insufficient. That's right, the spiritual energy in these spiritual plants is still not enough. It seems I need to find more spiritual plants, especially those with abundant spiritual energy."

As she muttered to herself, Jingwei had already decided to wreak havoc on the Taixu Realm in the future, causing unrest among the entire group of spirit beasts.

The night was bright with stars and the moonlight was dazzling.

Jingwei still waits by the Zhishui Lake, where the tranquil surface reflects the crescent moon high in the sky, like a moon reflected in water, making people want to explore it.

Beside this full Full Moon, there was a sleeping maiden, her expression serene, like a celestial being in the moon. Her rosy face seemed to radiate a beautiful essence, rising into the air in the direction from which the moonlight came.

There seemed to be a phantom there, overlooking the entire Taixu Realm, yet it also appeared to be merely an illusion created by the moonlight.

Cannot see clearly, cannot understand, fleeting.

Jingwei's gaze was already drawn to Fu Hua, who resembled a fairy in the lake, so she didn't notice her. However, Little Yue'er, who was walking up behind her, saw her clearly.

Under the moonlight, a figure rises and rushes towards the crescent moon, like Chang'e flying to the moon, but unfortunately, she has no rabbit in her arms.

Little Yue'er was so engrossed in watching that she unknowingly came behind Jingwei. A pine tree happened to be there to shield her petite body, and the moonlight shone down, slowly merging into her body.

The rising figure became increasingly ethereal, to the point that Little Yue'er could no longer see it clearly. It wasn't until the figure was completely swallowed by the crescent moon that Little Yue'er came back to her senses.

Turning around, my body suddenly stiffened.

Suddenly, a face magnified countless times appeared before her eyes, startling Little Yue'er into a scream. Her chest heaved violently, and she involuntarily took a step back, only to be stopped by the rough pine branches behind her.

Her back was already pressed against the tree trunk. She looked up and saw a large face close to hers. In the darkness, the eerie crimson eyes looked more like the pupils of a demon, as if it wanted to devour her completely.

With her head slightly lowered, strands of hair fell from her temples, brushing against Little Yue'er's cheeks, causing a slight tickle.

A warm breath wafted from ahead, gently brushing against her face, making her feel slightly flushed.

Then, the person in front of him spoke.

Who are you? Why are you here?

Her voice was clear and crisp, but it was full of wariness. Her crimson eyes were fixed on the bewildered Little Yue'er in front of her.

Little Yue'er was indeed at a loss, but more than that, she was embarrassed because it was the first time someone had been so close to her. Little Yue'er didn't know how to react, and her face must have been very red under the moonlight.

Jingwei's expression was solemn, and she spoke again.

"Who are you? Why are you here? What are your intentions?"

This time, the tone was harsher, and the breath was colder.

Little Yue'er snapped out of her daze and looked at Jingwei, who was completely wrapped around her in her arms. Her face flushed, but she tried her best to calm herself down before speaking.

"Could you move a little further away?"

The sound was soft and gentle, like the finest milk cake, sweet and delicious, beckoning one to taste it.

Jingwei remained unmoved, still bracing herself against the tree trunk, holding Little Yue'er's petite body in her arms, but her heart was heavy, devoid of any romantic feelings.

They had just returned here when this unidentified person suddenly appeared in Taixu Mountain, making her believe that it was absolutely impossible for him not to have some ulterior motive.

These are extraordinary times; we cannot afford to let even the slightest accident happen.

"Um, you're making it hard for me to talk!"

"What does this have to do with anything? Are you perhaps planning to ambush Crimson Kite while I'm off guard?" Jingwei retorted righteously and assertively.

There was not a single question, but rather an affirmation.

"Lord Crimson Kite?"

"As expected, you came here to harm Crimson Kite."

"I don't even know who she is."

"What does the Spirit Hall want with you?"

"The Spirit Hall?"

"I was really stupid. What else could the Spirit Hall possibly do?"

"So, what is that?!"

"You don't need to deny it anymore, I know everything."

Little Yue'er looked adorably delighted, but the problem was...

I don't know!

PS: Mist City's ultimate move is really cool. It turns out you really have to land first before you can use it. I was wondering why I couldn't press the button to use it!

PS1: Just a few more chapters and the side story will be released.
