Lovesick Heartbreak Red Chooses Its Master

Tang Sect Hidden Weapons: Silent Sleeve Arrow...

The cold Hidden Weapon grew warm in Wang Dong'er's palm. She hurriedly stuffed it back into Xiao Wu's hand.

"The teachers at the academy take good care of me. I won't be in any danger. Keep this Hidden Weapon to protect yourself."

Xiao Wu shook her head. "Xiao San's been gathering materials for new Hidden Weapons lately. He told me this one is called the Godly Zhuge Crossbow, and it's countless times more powerful than the Silent Sleeve Arrow. I have no use for it. You should keep it."

"By the way, do you have enough money? I've been saving the Soul Master subsidies I've received over the years. Here, take this and use it. Just think of it as a loan. You're in a big city, so you must have plenty of things to spend money on."

She took a bag of Gold Soul Coins from her Soul Tool. They were the savings she'd scraped together by living frugally, and she stuffed the whole lot into Wang Dong'er's arms.

"If you still consider me... then, Sister Xiao Wu, just take it. Don't misunderstand—you're my little brother, so of course I have to look after you. That was what we agreed on the first day we entered the work-study dormitory."

Wang Dong'er was filled with complicated emotions and didn't know what to say. Looking at Xiao Wu's smiling face, she felt her eyes grow hot before she even realized it.

She, Wang Dong'er, was practically a beast...

Even an idiot could tell how Xiao Wu felt about her, but... sigh.

"Come with me."

Wang Dong'er tucked away Xiao Wu's kindness, then reached out and took her hand, leading her to an empty street corner.

With her back against the wall and Wang Dong'er standing in front of her, Xiao Wu couldn't help feeling shy. "What are you going to do?"

"Sister Xiao Wu... You've been so good to me. Naturally, I should be good to you, too." As Wang Dong'er spoke, she reached down to her waist.

Xiao Wu thought Wang Dong'er was about to start undressing her. Her ears turned red, her cheeks burned, and a strange feeling welled up inside her.

She thought about who she was, then about Tang San, still cultivating at the hotel. In the end, she slowly closed her eyes.

Come on, it's fine. Wang Dong'er is human, and I'm a Soul Beast. There's nothing wrong with it.

Wang Dong'er took out the Lovesick Heartbreak Red from the Wishful Hundred Treasure Pouch.

"Hmm? Sister Xiao Wu, why did you close your eyes?"

At that, Xiao Wu awkwardly opened her eyes and lightly patted Wang Dong'er on the chest. "I'll do whatever I want. Why do you care so much?"

"Eek, what's this?"

Before long, the King of Immortal Herbs in Wang Dong'er's hand caught her attention.

"Though this flower looks ordinary, it contains an enormous amount of life energy."

"Good eye," Wang Dong'er said. "This flower is called Lovesick Heartbreak Red. It can bring the dead back to life, restore flesh to bare bones, and conceal one's aura. But I can't make it choose me as its master. Better to give it to you for protection than let it rot in my hands."

"Bring the dead back to life... conceal one's aura."

Xiao Wu's beautiful eyes widened. "This flower looks so plain. It really has such powers?!"

"What do you mean, make it choose its master?"

"It's no ordinary flower. It chooses its master and serves them..."

Just as Wang Dong'er was explaining the King of Immortal Herbs to Xiao Wu, the Sea God's Divine Sense in her spiritual sea suddenly released an invisible wave of energy.

Neither Wang Dong'er nor Xiao Wu noticed it. When Wang Dong'er finished speaking, the Lovesick Heartbreak Red in her hand suddenly erupted with a terrifying red field of energy.

Xiao Wu gave a muffled groan and instantly lost consciousness, lifted into the air by that energy.

The Lovesick Heartbreak Red slowly drifted away from Wang Dong'er's palm. Under Wang Dong'er's bewildered gaze, a drop of blood rose from Xiao Wu's chest and fell onto the flower's stamen. The incredibly hard Black Absolute Stone silently crumbled into dust and vanished.

The Lovesick Heartbreak Red burst into blinding crimson light. The light enveloped Xiao Wu completely, and her life force steadily surged.

The light faded, and Xiao Wu slowly descended. Wang Dong'er stepped forward and caught her in her arms. The Lovesick Heartbreak Red had completely fused with Xiao Wu.

"What happened?"

Wang Dong'er was utterly bewildered.

Why had the Lovesick Heartbreak Red suddenly chosen a master?

Where was the Lovesick Heartbreak Red? Had Xiao Wu absorbed it? But Xiao Wu's Soul Power hadn't changed at all; only her life force had grown vigorous. If Wang Dong'er's spiritual power hadn't improved, she wouldn't even have noticed that.

By the time Xiao Wu woke, dawn was breaking.

The first thing she saw was the ceiling. She jolted awake and sat halfway up.

Once she took in her surroundings, she realized she was in some room. Seeing Wang Dong'er meditating nearby, she finally relaxed.

She also noticed the changes in herself.

She had actually entered the mature stage.

The mature stage was the most crucial period for a Soul Beast transforming into a human. During this stage, as long as she became immersed in human society and her Soul Power advanced enough to withstand a hundred thousand years of cultivation, she could become fully human.

After carefully sensing her own condition, Xiao Wu was even more shocked.

Her physical strength had increased several times over, and so had her vitality. If she could keep improving steadily, she would become truly human as soon as she broke through to Soul Emperor.

With the perfect fusion of the Lovesick Heartbreak Red, her aura had been completely concealed. From now on, there was no risk of her being exposed.

"I never expected the Lovesick Heartbreak Red to have such miraculous effects... Wang Dong'er, you really were willing to give me such a precious herb."

Xiao Wu was deeply moved. Seeing that it was already getting late, she gently woke Wang Dong'er.

After learning about Xiao Wu's current condition, Wang Dong'er was utterly confused. Before she could say anything, a "great menace" smothered her face. Unable to breathe, she flushed red as she struggled to smile. The faint fragrance, softness, and warmth made her heart race.

After leaving the hotel, Wang Dong'er followed Xiao Wu to a room at the Lily Hotel on Heaven Dou Street.

Don't get the wrong idea. They hadn't rented a room to keep resting; Tang San was cultivating at this hotel.

Hearing the knock, Tang San slowly came out of his cultivation state. He opened the door, saw Xiao Wu, and smiled warmly.

"Xiao Wu, you're awake so early?"

"And this is... Wang Dong?"

When he saw Wang Dong'er, Tang San froze and instinctively called her by that familiar name. He couldn't help it: this stranger looked so much like Wang Dong. Her looks, hair color, height, and clothes were nearly identical, except for... her figure.

If that guy Wang Dong grew his hair long and dressed up a bit, he'd look exactly like the young woman in front of him.

"Sorry, I mistook you for someone else. You look so much like my friend."
