26: Are you really not...hungry?

Wang Feng, who was making fire by drilling wood, missed Erha; to be precise, he missed Erha’s steel claws.

Jiang Hanxi didn’t understand what the silly boy in front of her was doing, holding a sharpened stick and constantly drilling into a piece of rotten wood.

Wang Feng drilled for at least an hour without stopping for a moment.

After drilling for exactly forty-nine minutes, he finally got it to ignite.

Seeing the smoke rise, Wang Feng quickly poured the small spark into the dry grass and gently blew on it.

“Fairy Sister, look!”

Wang Feng held up the burning clump of dry grass and happily waved it in front of Jiang Hanxi.

There was some surprise in Jiang Hanxi’s eyes.

She hadn’t expected this silly boy to create a fire with just a small stick and a piece of rotten wood.

It just seemed to take a bit of time.

After the bonfire was lit, Wang Feng ran behind a tree and changed into a pair of big floral pants.

The wet big floral pants he had worn into the water felt uncomfortable on him.

“Fairy Sister, why are you looking at me?”

When Wang Feng walked out from behind the tree, he found Jiang Hanxi looking at him with a strange gaze.

This left Wang Feng utterly bewildered.

When Wang Feng walked over to his package, he finally understood why Jiang Hanxi was looking at him with such a strange gaze.

The package, which had been wrapped, had opened. As for how it opened...

Who knew!

Anyway, all the aphrodisiacs inside were seen by Jiang Hanxi.

“Uh... haha, I said I picked these up, do you believe me?”

Wang Feng quickly walked over and re-wrapped the package.

He thought, “It’s over, it’s over, it’s over. Her favorability towards me must have plummeted.”

He should have thrown away this troublesome stuff back then; carrying it around was uncomfortable.

But then again, it was drawn from source points, and Wang Feng was truly a bit reluctant to part with it, especially since he could use it to harm others later.

Moreover, it could be recycled after the storage space was opened.

“Mm.”

To Wang Feng’s surprise, Jiang Hanxi only hummed in response.

As for what she was thinking, Wang Feng had no way of knowing.

The two of them seemed to act as if nothing had happened; Jiang Hanxi remained silent.

Wang Feng roasted fish by the fire, and in the warm glow, the atmosphere between the talented man and beautiful woman seemed a little strange.

“Eat.”

“No.”

Wang Feng offered the roasted fish to Jiang Hanxi’s mouth, but Jiang Hanxi clearly didn’t trust him this time.

“Fairy Sister, my things aren’t for you to use.”

The more Wang Feng spoke, the colder Jiang Hanxi’s expression became.

Who knew if he had secretly put something in this fish?

“Why do you carry these aphrodisiacs with you? Do you intend to poison someone?”

Jiang Hanxi’s face held a hint of chill. No matter how much he poisoned with these aphrodisiacs, he couldn’t possibly poison a man, could he?

“There’s a Fairy Sister right in front of me, why would I need to poison anoth—...”

Wang Feng realized he had said the wrong thing and quickly shut his mouth.

Isn’t this just pure foolishness? First, showing her aphrodisiacs, then revealing in front of her that he seemed to intend to poison her.

“You eat it; I’m not hungry.”

Jiang Hanxi thought of their current predicament, and her tone finally softened.

She was truly afraid that this silly boy in front of her would suddenly get lecherous ideas.

“You really won’t eat?”

Wang Feng’s expression seemed to ask, “Are you really not hungry?”

Grrrrumble~

As soon as Wang Feng finished speaking, Jiang Hanxi’s stomach uncooperatively rumbled, and the atmosphere instantly became incredibly awkward.

Jiang Hanxi silently closed her eyes, not wanting to face this stomach. She only wished she didn’t have this stomach right now.

Wang Feng leaned in a little closer, almost to her ear.

Smelling her faint body fragrance, he slowly spoke with a grin: “Are you, really, not... hungry?”

Jiang Hanxi felt waves of warm breath against her ear and frantically turned her head away.

“Don’t come near me!”

Jiang Hanxi’s tone was normal, but a hint of panic flashed in her eyes. This silly boy wouldn’t try to do something to her, would he?

“If you, don’t, eat, then I’m going to hehehe.”

Wang Feng remained unmoved and continued, ending with a laugh that seemed to replace some words, his face looking utterly debauched.

“Fairy Sister, look at you now. Do I still need to use aphrodisiacs? Wouldn’t it be even more stimulating if I just went for it directly?”

Wang Feng suddenly changed his expression, slowly stood up with the roasted fish, and spoke seriously.

It was as if Jiang Hanxi’s mind finally connected the dots. In her current state, did he still need to use aphrodisiacs?

Jiang Hanxi couldn’t help but recall the scene where Wang Feng had personally torn off her clothes in front of her.

And she had struggled wildly, but ultimately, because her body couldn’t move, her struggles were useless.

“Alright... well, since you don’t believe me, I can’t force you. Once your injuries heal, I’ll leave...”

Wang Feng turned around, holding the roasted fish, looking utterly dejected, almost on the verge of tears of grievance.

He looked just like a child who wasn’t trusted by an adult.

“I’ll eat...”

Jiang Hanxi’s melodious voice came from behind him, this time a little weak.

It was no longer the icy, cold tone of before.

Wang Feng’s heart trembled a few times, beating wildly. The tone of this great ice queen was very wrong, but the sound was so enjoyable.

“Fairy Sister, you believe me now?”

Wang Feng asked with a surprised expression, as if the child from before had been acknowledged by the adult.

“Mm...”

Jiang Hanxi’s tone was still soft and weak, like a helpless beauty being forced.

However, she was indeed quite helpless right now.

Wow~, this voice! What on earth was she thinking just now? How did her voice change!?

Wang Feng felt that if he listened to a few more sounds like that, his heart would jump out of his chest.

Jiang Hanxi had completely changed her usual demeanor; she truly seemed like a delicate fairy who had fallen into the mortal realm.

“Here...”

Wang Feng squatted down and offered the still warm roasted fish to Jiang Hanxi’s mouth.

Jiang Hanxi pursed her lips and took small bites.

Seeing Jiang Hanxi finally eat, a sense of accomplishment arose in Wang Feng’s heart.

That kind of conquering accomplishment.

Wang Feng felt a bit twisted psychologically; he actually felt a sense of accomplishment in such a matter.

“It’s a pity, though, there’s no salt or chili powder or anything.”

Wang Feng muttered as he fed Jiang Hanxi, saying that otherwise, the fish would definitely be more fragrant and delicious.

“I’m full.”

“Why didn’t you eat it all?”

Hearing Jiang Hanxi’s words, Wang Feng raised the fish, which had been eaten on one side, and asked curiously.

Is her stomach that small? She only ate exactly one side of the fish meat; the other side was still perfectly fine.

“I’m full.”

Jiang Hanxi closed her eyes and softly replied.

“Oh, well, alright then.”

Wang Feng picked up the other side and started eating. Wang Feng had expected Jiang Hanxi to scold him a few times.

But he didn’t hear any scolding from Jiang Hanxi even after he finished eating.

“Is she asleep?”

Wang Feng turned his head and saw that Jiang Hanxi’s eyes had closed at some point.

He adjusted Jiang Hanxi’s crooked posture slightly, then turned back to continue tending the bonfire.

Wang Feng flicked the fishbone off the long, straight knife, then rubbed the blade against a nearby tree.

With that, he sat cross-legged and began to cultivate.

After reaching the Gathering Spirit Realm, everything would improve significantly.

Hunger was no exception, which was why Wang Feng didn’t plan to go fishing again.

Eating the remaining fish meat would have to suffice.

“Ding, wake Jiang Hanxi up and put her back to sleep. Reward: 50 source points.”

Wang Feng: ???

What Wang Feng didn’t know was that at this moment, Jiang Hanxi and Cold Sword were struggling to resist the blood-colored jade seal within the Divine Sea Space.

Forcibly using the Holy Artifact caused her to be pulled from her sleep into her own Divine Sea Space by the Holy Artifact.

This was not her life-bound weapon, as she had obtained this Nirvana Holy Seal by chance.

At most, it was a tool she utilized. Now that she had forcibly used this Nirvana Holy Seal with her low cultivation, she naturally suffered a backlash.

And Cold Sword, as a sealed Emperor Weapon, was already remarkable for being able to contend with an unsealed Holy Artifact.

If Cold Sword hadn’t been sealed, it could have shattered it instantly.

However, if Cold Sword were unsealed, just taking it out would probably crush countless people with its might.

These were two extremes: anything not ascending to an Emperor Weapon was trash.

And the struggling Wang Feng, from his first life to his ninth, had no weapon to use at all, always relying on his fists.

“Hey! Hey! Wake up!”

Wang Feng still couldn’t resist the temptation of the source points and patted Jiang Hanxi’s face, calling out a few times.

Anyway, Jiang Hanxi was at his mercy now. Waking her up to put her back to sleep, Jiang Hanxi couldn’t do anything to him.

“Heh heh! She’s quite a sound sleeper!”

Wang Feng patted her a few more times and tapped her forehead, but she still didn’t wake up.

Wang Feng then realized that this mission definitely wasn’t that simple.

It seemed he had to stimulate her a bit.

Wang Feng pinched Jiang Hanxi’s nose and patted her face again.

He tapped her forehead a few times, as if fiddling with a static-filled television.

“This silly boy!”

The small figure formed by Jiang Hanxi’s divine consciousness cursed in the Divine Sea Space.

She could feel Wang Feng’s actions in the outside world even from within the Divine Sea Space.

Bang!

Looking at the Nirvana Holy Seal pressing down again, Jiang Hanxi ignored the discomfort on her face.

The small Jiang Hanxi of divine consciousness raised her sword and pushed against it.

She couldn’t have condensed her divine consciousness and entered this Divine Sea Space normally, but she had been forcibly pulled in by the Nirvana Holy Seal.

The Nirvana Holy Seal had also helped Jiang Hanxi a bit; after this, she would be able to retrieve Cold Sword from the Divine Sea Space again.

The prerequisite was that she could withstand this backlash from the Nirvana Holy Seal.

Jiang Hanxi watched the Nirvana Holy Seal collide with the sword in her hand, a blood-red light and a cold light clashing.

Jiang Hanxi suddenly felt an itch on the soles of her feet.

She cursed that silly boy outside a few more times in her heart, only able to increase her efforts to resist the blood-colored jade seal in front of her.

Damn it!

Jiang Hanxi waved her hand, and a corpse with closed eyes flew out from the deepest part of her Divine Sea Space.

The corpse raised its right hand and slapped down at the jade seal.

Boom!

This strike made Jiang Hanxi’s Divine Sea Space shake several times.

And Jiang Hanxi’s divine consciousness avatar also became much dimmer from controlling the corpse.

However, the jade seal was also quieted by this strike, and its vibrant blood-red light was directly dispersed.

It seemed like a small, pitiful thing, slowly flying to a small corner of the Divine Sea Space, not daring to move again.

Wang Feng outside noticed that Jiang Hanxi’s body had moved a little.

He quickly put her shoes back on; the good stuff on her legs couldn’t be discovered by her.

“Awake? I thought you had fainted.”

Wang Feng’s expression was serious. If Jiang Hanxi had been unconscious in the Divine Sea Space just now, she would truly have believed he was simply waking her up.

“You!...”

Jiang Hanxi roared in anger, but the words she wanted to curse stopped in her throat.

She still had to rely on him these days. When a person is under someone else's roof, they have to bow their head.

“Fairy Sister, what’s wrong with me?...”

Wang Feng looked at Jiang Hanxi innocently, as if her roar had made him feel a little wronged.

“Nothing!”

Jiang Hanxi seemed to deflate, closing her eyes and no longer paying attention to Wang Feng.

“Ding, the mission to wake Jiang Hanxi up and put her back to sleep has been completed. Reward: 50 source points.”
