Chapter 41: Snowflakes Stirring the Fragrant Heart

  Luosi heard what Batu said and subconsciously looked at Chen Xing. In fact, she didn't expect Chen Xing to agree to Batu's request either. She just felt that even if it was only for a month, it was impossible. Chen Xing was the great high priest of the Moon God Sect after all! It was already difficult for him to come and accompany her to such a place, how could he possibly stay here with this blood-sucking demoness for a whole month?

  However, Chen Xing seemed to have misinterpreted her intention. He saw Luosi's subconscious glance and thought it was anticipation. He said to Bodhi, "If I really stay here for a month, can you let her take away the Lingxian grass?" As he spoke, he pointed at Luosi.

  The Bodhisattva was overjoyed and hastily agreed, saying: "Of course! Of course! If you are willing to stay with me for just one month, I will definitely let her take the Lingxian grass!"

  Luosi opened her mouth to stop Chen Xing from agreeing, but thinking of Tang Xiaoxia still lying in the Snow Cloud Valley, this might be the only chance to save him, she swallowed her breath and hesitated without saying a word. Just as she was hesitating, Chen Xing stood up, looking at Bapo Shen: "Good! I agree with you!" Please help her!

  The expression of Bodha suddenly became serious, she looked into Chen Xing's eyes and spoke extremely slowly: "You, don't regret?"

  When asked if he would regret it, Chen Xing's expression turned majestic, and with a flick of his wide sleeve, he said loudly: "Ridiculous! As the Grand Priest of the Moon God Cult, my words are like the light shed by the moon god, how can I take them back!"

  Luo Siqi's heart was uneasy, this method of sacrificing others to help herself save another person made her very uncomfortable. Chen Xing also seemed to have noticed her unease and walked over to pat her on the back, comforting her: "Don't worry, it's just for a month, she won't suck my blood, since the Ling Xian Cao is so important, you take it back first!"

  The goddess Bada heard Chen Xing's words and thought that the high priest of the Moon God Sect was arrogant. She asked him curiously, with a hint of disdain: "What is the Moon God Sect? I've only heard of the Night God Sect in Black Witch Mountain. The Night God Sect has an unpredictable leader like a bottomless black abyss, and the eight great protectors have abilities that ordinary people can't fathom. Since you became the high priest of the Moon God Sect, you should have some skills too! Why were you just trapped by my subordinates?"

  Chen Xing heard Bada Shen say this, although she had always been disdainful of showing off her abilities, but this sarcastic remark was still hiding her true intentions. She stretched out both hands, took a deep breath and operated her magic. Not only Bada Shen, but everyone around them widened their eyes in curiosity. Many small stars flashed in Chen Xing's palm, shining with silver light, slowly growing bigger and gathering together, finally condensing into a large and beautiful snowflake. Bada Shen had lived in the south for a long time and had never seen snow before. Seeing this scene, she was stunned, even though it was just a clever magic trick without any real combat power. But for her, it was enough. Her smile was different from the mocking one earlier, and also different from the charming smile she had been maintaining all along. She seemed to have become ten years younger in an instant. She walked excitedly to Chen Xing's side, looking at the snowflake in his palm, and asked like a child, full of expectation: "Chen Xing, can I hold it?"

  Morning Star was taken aback by her sudden change, but still nodded and gently placed the snowflake in Baturu's hand. Then, with a light wave of his right hand on the snowflake in Baturu's palm, many small stars like before fell onto Baturu's palm again. A very thin layer of white appeared on her hand, and the snowflakes shone brightly on the white, without any signs of melting.

  Losie had last seen Chen Xing use a similar technique at the dawn ceremony on Lin Yue Peak. At that time, Chen Xing had lightly dipped his right hand into a small blue-green water bottle and with a flick of his wrist, countless water droplets had splashed towards Losie, shattering into countless ice crystals. The dreamlike scene had left Losie enchanted for a long time. Now, seeing Batur's appearance not much stronger than her own at that time, she couldn't help but feel puzzled. She wondered in her heart: "Could it be that the blood-sucking Batur, who has lived for so many years, can still look young and even regain his childish mindset?"

  Chen Xing saw Ba Da Shen holding the snowflake and being infatuated for a long time, then couldn't help but interrupt her: "Is it fun?" Ba Da Shen nodded like a child, and he continued: "I can turn into one for you anytime when I'm here, now can you tell us how to get the Ling Xian Cao?"

  Bada Shen didn't dangle the bait in front of two people this time, and with Snowflake by her side, she seemed more approachable. She said to one of her subordinates beside her: "Si Qing, go call Ying Yu and have him take her back to the inn to rest!" The girl called Si Qing responded and opened a door to call out for Ying Yu.

  Luosi didn't know who Yin Yu was until she saw him following Si Qing in, and only then did she realize he was the owner of the inn where she had been taken to by mistake for the first time. After entering, he still looked as expressionless as during the day, seeming like a machine whose sole responsibility was bringing Luosi back to the inn. Luosi turned her gaze towards Chen Xing again, her meaning clear: if she and Yin Yu were going back to the inn, what would Chen Xing do? Was she just going to stay here?

  The Bodhisattva seemed to think it was no big deal, and in her mind, Chen Xing had already begun fulfilling his promise to accompany her for a month. She simply told Luosiqi, "Don't worry, little sister! You go back and sleep for now, I'll have someone send the Lingxian grass to you tomorrow!" Her tone was casual, and although Luosiqi wasn't too sure if she should believe it, this kind of tone was clearly trustworthy. It was like when she ordered takeout fried rice over the phone in modern times, and the owner told her, "Just wait at home for 10 minutes, I'll have someone deliver it to you!"

  For the fact that she could get the Ling Xian Grass tomorrow, Luosiqi should have been very happy, but it was suddenly said by Badao God in such a light tone that it seemed too easy. Although she knew that what was easy for Badao God would be difficult for her to do, she still had some complaints and said to Badao God: "Sister, you're deceiving me, originally the Ling Xian Grass wasn't hard to get at all, yet you even detained Chenxing for a month!"

  Now the very happy Batuo God didn't mind Luosiqi's gain, she thought it was funny and smiled at Luosiqi: "I'm saying, sister! That's because I have a relationship with the Night God Sect in Heiwu Mountain, not that I'm mocking you. If you go to Heiwu Mountain by yourself, even if you rely on your strong skills to come back alive, maybe you won't even see what the Lingxian grass looks like!"

  Luosiqi knew that Batu was telling the truth, but she felt uncomfortable leaving Chenxing here like this. Instead, Chenxing came over to comfort her and said to Batu, "I'll send her to the door and ask her a question."

  Bhadra nodded slightly, and the two followed Ying Yu to the door where he had come out. Ying Yu deliberately walked ahead, leaving space for the two to whisper to each other. Luosi Qi looked at Chen Xing's expressionless face and felt a surge of emotion, almost wanting to cry. He didn't even know what the Lingxian grass was used for, but simply because he needed it, he had agreed to stay here.

  So when Chen Xing asked her in a low voice, "Goddess, now that it's come to this, can you tell me why we've gone through so much trouble to find the Lingxian grass?" She also replied in a low voice, filled with apology: "Tang Xiaoxia was seriously injured and urgently needs the Lingxian grass to cure her illness."

  She saw Chen Xing's serious expression nodding at her, patted her shoulder and said: "When you go back, don't tell her that I was left here because of this. Just tell her that I'm very curious about the Night God Sect and everything here, it's okay to come back later!"

  Lucy nodded vigorously, watching Morningstar walk towards Batou, and took big strides to follow Yingyu. She didn't want to cry here, but thought in her heart: "Morningstar, the great priest, is indeed a very good person!"
