“Is that all I have to do?” Tang Xiaorou asked.
“Well, I’ll tell them to help you,” Fang Yu replied.
“Okay.” Tang Xiaorou nodded.
Then I’m off.” Fang Yu raised his head, waved to Tang Mingde and Tang Feng, as a greeting.
Then, she turned to leave.
“Wait!” Tang Xiaorou called out to Fang Yu again.
“What’s wrong?” Fang Yu asked.
“Why don’t you just throw that box away? Don’t open it.” Tang Xiaorou said, her face flushed red.
“Throw it away?” Fang Yu raised an eyebrow.
“Maybe it’s okay to not throw it away… or should I just throw it away?” Tang Xiaorou said incoherently.
“Since you’ve given it to me, let me decide what to do with it myself.” Fang Yu said, “I’m leaving.”
After that, Fang Yu turned and left.
Tang Xiaorou watched Fang Yu’s back, dazedly raising her hands to cover her burning cheeks.
Then, she turned her head towards the north.
…She must go there to cultivate! …
……
After leaving the Jiangnan region, Fang Yu returned to the Beidu mansion once again.
After instructing Ye Shengxue about a few things concerning Tang Xiaorou, he then went to find Xiao Fengling.
The master and his servant arrived at the depths of the mansion, before the interrogation cave.
“Little Wind Chime, why don’t you return to the artifact first? Then I can put Yue Xian Wind Chime into my storage space. That way it’s the safest.” Fang Yu said.
“Back to the artifact…?” Xiaofengling tilted her head, looking at Fang Yu with a puzzled expression. “Master, what do I need to do to get back to the artifact?”
“Huh?”
Fang Yu was stunned and said, “You are the spiritual being. How would I know how to get you back? Besides, you just ran out from the Yuexian Fengling. Before, you could do it easily, why can’t you now? Have you forgotten?”
“I…” Xiaofengling lowered her head, looking at her own body, with a look of bewilderment.
Then, she raised her head again, shaking it repeatedly. “Master,” she said, “it seems I can’t return to the Yuexian Fengling.”
Now, Fang Yu was completely stunned.
As a spirit, Xiao Fengling, couldn’t return to her original artifact?
How is this possible? <<<
And what does that mean?
Fang Yu’s eyes flashed with surprise as he looked at the small wind chime in front of him.
Since returning to Beidu, after centuries apart from Xiaofengling, he had noticed subtle changes in her.
Becoming more and more human-like, increasingly possessing human qualities, rather than simply being a spirit.
Looking back, Xiao Fengling was indeed extremely rare, one could even say she never returned to Yuexian Fengling.
And on the surface, Xiao Fengling increasingly resembled an independent being, just a human girl child, with nothing out of the ordinary about her.
“Extreme Cold Tears, I want to ask, has there ever been an instance in history where a spiritual artifact became human?” Fang Yu asked in his heart.
“As far as I know, no,” Jihan Zilei replied, “A spirit is born from a magical artifact and can develop self-awareness, but to become human, it needs to exist independently… This is impossible. No spirit can sever its connection with the artifact.”
“What’s up with that little wind chime?” Fang Yu asked.
“…The Glacial Tear remained silent for a moment, then replied, ‘Perhaps it is not a spirit transforming into a human, but a weapon becoming a person.'”
“The magic weapon turning into a person… Right, Yue Xian Feng Ling!”
At this point, Fang Yu only remembered that he wanted to send Xiaofengling back into the Yuexianfengling, but he had forgotten where Yuexianfengling was.
He seemed to have not seen the physical presence of Yue Xian Feng Ling in a long time.
That is to say… Yue Xian Feng Ling has merged with Xiao Feng Ling, becoming this form now!?
<>
I’ve only ever heard of spirit beasts transforming into humans, never that a magic artifact could become human!
While the Yuexian Windbell was initially rated as a semi-divine artifact and categorized as a formation-type artifact.
It seems that Yue Xian Feng Ling’s origins are far from simple!
Fang Yu stared straight at Xiaofengling, his eyes still flashing with shock.
“Master, what’s wrong? Am I not allowed to go to the upper plane with you?” Xiaofengling took a few steps forward, her big eyes shimmering with tears, and asked.
“Well, at least I can get up there… Forget it, I’ll research it later.” Fang Yu said.
“Great!”
Xiaofengling immediately beamed, hugging Fangyu’s thigh.
“Remember, during your ascension to the higher plane, you must always be aware of my presence,” Fang Yu said. “If some force teleports you away, find a way to use the mark within you to contact me. Since we’re on the same plane, we should be able to connect.”
“Well, I understand, Master,” Xiaofengling nodded.
Okay, then… Bebe!
Fang Yu shouted.
“Woof!”
Baby leaped from Fang Yu’s chest, her eyes gleaming.
“”>
A circular imprint appeared in the air.
While Little Wind Chime’s gaze was fixed on Baby, the white puppy, her brow furrowed, and she asked with some hostility,
“Master, who is this little white dog…?”
But before she could finish her words, Fang Yu grabbed her and rushed into the circular mark together.
Whoosh!
Master and servant vanished together into the mark!
And Bebe jumped in after her.
“Whoosh!”
This time, Fang Yu didn’t know where the target location was set.
But no matter where, as long as I can get back to Daxing.
“Whoosh!”
The moment Fang Yu passed through the ring of markings, the scene before him changed drastically.
The turquoise sea comes into view.
He has appeared above the entrance of the Yuhuamen!
“I…damn it!”
Fang Yu fell from the sky, turned his head to glance at the circular mark behind him, then looked forward again.
He’s already back at Yuhuamen!? <<<
…Back to that moment!?
This is too fast, isn’t it?
Fang Yu widened his eyes, a little taken aback.
This isn’t interdimensional travel, it’s crossing entire planes of existence!
Little Wind Bell still kept her eyes closed, her hands tightly wrapped around Fang Yu’s thigh, afraid of being pulled away by some spatial force.
“Teleportation across dimensions in an instant… how is that even possible?” Fang Yu looked at Beibei, who had just arrived, with astonishment.
“Woof!”
Bebé landed on Fangyu’s shoulder, wagging her tail proudly.
“Master, owner… have we arrived?” Xiaofengling didn’t dare to open her eyes, she asked cautiously.
“We’re here, you can open your eyes now,” Fang Yu replied.
Little Fengling opened her eyes and looked around at the scene. Her face was filled with shock as well.
“This… This is the top surface the master mentioned? How did we get here so quickly…” Xiaofengling looked around, her eyes wide open, and asked.
Fang Yu couldn’t answer that question.
“This time the edge of the plane wasn’t blocking anything, so it was natural for us to get here quickly. That’s perfectly normal, right?” Li HuoYu said.
“It’s not about speed, but about arriving instantly. I can’t really understand…how the distance that must be covered is bypassed in an instant.” Fang Yu asked in bewilderment.
“For this question, you’d have to ask one of the Myriad Beasts on your shoulders…the Sky-Stealer,” Lihuo Jade said faintly.
