ch 349 – The Event of the Statue; Saving Someone (6)
“Housemaster is right, guye is a jealous man. Housemaster, going forward when you assign tasks you must be more careful. It was no joke when guye’s toes were accidentally stepped on!” Thinking about how fast he was demoted from an elder to an errand boy, Old Man Ying was very distressed. All these just because of something that the housemaster inadvertently said.
“HAHAHAHAHA….” Laughed Zhou Jinjiang.
After leaving her father’s study, Cheng Xiao Xiao felt both funny and helpless at the same time. It was almost like she was starting to get used to this tool.
“Xiao Xiao, wait for me!!”
With the cry, Mo Xuanzun appeared next to her and said, “Xiao Xiao, are you mad at me?”
“Why would I be mad at you for no reason?” Cheng Xiao Xiao casted him a sideway glance and asked, baffled.
“Xiao Xiao, as long as you are not mad at me!” smiled Mo Xuanzun.
“I honestly don’t know what you are thinking!”
“Xiao Xiao, will that little human be coming with us?”
“Little human? You mean little Yuteng?”
Mo Xuanzun had been trying to figure out what little Yuteng was for the last few days. He asked around in a million ways but still wasn’t able to find out much information on her. He tried to find out more from Xiao Xiao again today.
His curiosity was killing him.
Cheng Xiao Xiao casted him another sideway glance. She knew what he was thinking, but she wanted to toy with him. The more eager he was to find out, the more she didn’t want to tell him.
“I can have her come out to play with you. As for what she is, you can go ask her yourself!” said Cheng Xiao Xiao as she walked on.
“Xiao Xiao, can you please tell me? I really want to know. How come I have never read about any little humans in any books that I have read before?”
“How would I know? I am telling you that I don’t know. Unless she’s will to tell you herself!”
“Every time she comes out she just chases after Xiao He, when will I have a chance to ask her?” Mo Xuanzun sounded blue.
“Then there’s nothing I can do!”
“Xiao Xiao!”
The two of them walked outside of the main entrance of the Cheng’s and, looking at the unhappy man, Cheng Xiao Xiao stopped and asked, “Where’s your immortal crane?”
“It’s right here!” mzx waved his sleeve and the little immortal crane appeared in front of them, “C’mon up, Xiao Xiao. Xiao He can carry the both of us!”
“No need! I have my own mystical crane!” Now that the dimension had levelled up to level 60, mystical crane was one of the added mystical beasts. Cheng Xiao Xiao immediately had little Yuteng started training it. It had already been a few days and it would be find as a ride.
“Mystical crane?”
Mo Xuanzun paused for a second. Surprised, he asked, “Did you say you don’t have mystical crane or immortal crane just a few days ago? Where did it come from all of a sudden?”
She was like a magician and that baffled him. The immortal cranes that they have at Temple of Divine Plans all came from their ancestors and it was their unique hallmark. One could also say that these species do not exist on this continent outside of Temple of Divine Plans.
How could he not be surprised and bewildered that Cheng Xiao Xiao sudden possessed a mystical crane?
“Yes, I do have mystical crane!” Cheng Xiao Xiao felt a bit awkward under his intent stare and explained somewhat unnaturally, “I have my secrets and I can’t share that with you just yet. And, if anyone ever asked, just tell them I got it from you. You must remember that. And if…”
“If what?” Mo Xuanzun’s eyes twinkled and he looked straight at her.
“I will tell you later. Let’s go save the people first!”
She couldn’t handle his intent stare any longer so, with a wave of her arm, a white mystical crane appeared out of nowhere. The two cranes looked so similar that if Cheng Xiao Xiao and Mo Xuanzun couldn’t sense their individual cranes, they would not be able to tell them apart.
