How Fragrant

“The person who’s going to kill me?”

Feng Xia was stunned to hear that.

Immediately after that, he felt a huge surge of joy. “There are other people in the Ancient Forsaken Land?!”

Months had passed since he had transmigrated.

In the past few months, Feng Xia had almost explored the entire Ancient Forsaken Land. Therefore, he knew very well that other than him and Patriarch Chenhai, the only other creatures here were the cluster of black jade spiders.

Now a third person had suddenly appeared from nowhere. Despite her claiming to be here to kill him, it was enough to surprise him.

Hi lady, shall we exchange We…

“People?”

Unexpectedly, the petite girl sneered in disdain. “I’m not human.”

Feng Xia was shocked again. “Then what kind of thing are you?”

“I’m not a thing either…”

“Amazing. As if anyone would still fall for this line from those online novels regarding ancient times… Oh wait, did this person just say that she’s not human?”

Even after moving alongside the girl for a few rounds, Feng Xia was still holding on two skewers of roasted spiders. He looked at the black-haired girl in shock.

The girl had very exquisite features. She was short… shapely and petite. A thick black veil covered her face, but it was the girl’s eyes that were the focus of attention.

There were only whites in her eyes and no pupils.They were like a pair of pale vortexes embedded in her face, and they looked like they could suck anyone’s soul.

Oh.

For some reason, the word popped into Feng Xia’s head.

“That’s odd. I seem to have seen that look somewhere before…”

As he looked at her, he felt a sense of familiarity for no reason.

Look at the face, the tone of the voice, and also…

“You’re Patriarch Chenhai’s great-great-great-great-great… great granddaughter?!”

“Bah, who is the great-granddaughter of that old thing!”

The girl placed her hands on her hips and immediately sneered in disdain.

Feng Xia rubbed his chin and looked even more surprised when he heard that. “But the two of you really look quite similar. You’re not the senior’s great-great-great-great-great… great granddaughter. Could it be…”

In that instant, another more incredulous guess came into his mind.

Subconsciously, he raised a hand and pointed at the tip of the black-haired girl’s nose.

“You’re actually senior Chenhai himself?!”

“Of course… Pfft, pfft, pfft, pfft! Who are you trying to insult?!”

“So it’s not the type of setting where ‘the mysterious old senior is actually a beautiful girl’.” Feng Xia stroked his chin regretfully, and the thoughtful look in his eyes became even more intense.

“Stop your horrible delusions now!”

“In any case, he has been suppressed here for 3,000 years. How can an otaku have descendants? And if it’s not you’re not senior himself…”

Speaking of the girl, she was quite talented at being critical.

Feng Xia was unable to work it out for now. As he thought about how she was not the descendant of Patriarch Chenhai, nor was she the Patriarch Chenhai who had been suppressed for 3,000 years, his smile gradually became perverted…

This girl could not be his descendant, right?!

“Who’s your mother?!”

“Bah! How dare you curse people!”

“But you said you weren’t human?”

“Bah, shameless human, you should die!”

Swoosh—

A faint light lit up and condensed into purple petals that scattered in the air in a tragic manner. He could feel the sense of an intent to kill.

The black-haired girl waved her sleeve, and her entire body was like a black bolt of lightning as she attacked Feng Xia again!

She faced Feng Xia and raised her pale neck. At the same time, her black veil suddenly split open, revealing a big bloody mouth that stretched from ear to ear!

“After killing so many of my clones, it’s my turn to kill you!”

“What the hell, you can’t be so unreasonable!”

After these few months, Feng Xia’s strength had improved a lot. He just needed to dodge sideways to escape the girl’s fatal blow.

He was really confused now.

Come on, in the few months since he transmigrated, apart from chatting with Patriarch Chenhai, all he did was to eat, sleep and kill spiders. He would never kill someone for money, nor did he have a chance to do something like that!

“I won’t accept being blamed for random crimes!”

“Rubbish!”

The girl yelled at him, not caring about her image at all. At the same time, she turned around again and raised her slender thigh. Dark light came from her fair and petite bare feet. Then, she suddenly accelerated and slashed at Feng Xia’s head like a sharp blade!

“What’s with all the nonsense? My goal today is just to kill you!”

“You don’t have to think about begging for mercy, because today… you will definitely die!”

The girl suddenly disappeared from Feng Xia’s vision. Only the thickening purple mist, filled with a sad aura, permeated the air in all directions!

So there’s going to be a second acceleration?

Even though he was surprised, Feng Xia still had time to secretly complain—

Although he had never really fought with anyone, and the “Floating Dream Three Lives Technique” was not known for its powerful combat strength in the early stages, Feng Xia had not been resting on his laurels during the past few months.

Not only did he absorb attribute light balls every day, but the “Floating Dream Three Lives Technique” also strengthened his soul, causing his perception to improve by leaps and bounds.

‘Let me see… where are you?’

Swoosh—

A shadow silently came at Feng Xia from behind.

The dark-haired girl was already smiling triumphantly.

Then, she saw the human youth wave his hand as if he had eyes in the back of his head. A long black shadow slashed at her face!

“Found you—”

Feng Xia laughed loudly and turned around. He gathered all his strength and thrust the bamboo stick forward.

“You?!”

The girl clearly did not expect this to happen. In her shock, she subconsciously opened her mouth and let out a scream. Then, Feng Xia stabbed her in the mouth!

She lost her balance and stumbled backward, eventually falling and landing on her backside.

Seeing that the girl still wanted to get up, a faint smile appeared on Feng Xia’s face while he was taking a breather and he spoke casually.

“Young lady, there’s no need for any pointless resistance. You’re no match for me.”

“Bah! Chew, chew.”

“So, tell me who you really are. You can’t be coming here to kill me for no rhyme or reason, there has to be a reason, right?”

“For no reason? Bah! You don’t have to think about trying to get close to me… Chew, chew, chew. Even if you’re the same as before, killing me and opening me up right here…”

The girl wrapped her arms around her shoulders. Even though there were still only whites in her eyes, Feng Xia could clearly feel her disgust and hatred!

“… don’t expect me to give in… chew, chew, chew.”

“…”

Feng Xia watched as she finished the roasted spider in small bites, and even looked a little unsatiated. She subconsciously stuck out her tongue and licked the corners of her mouth clean. Feng Xia could not help but fall silent for a moment.

At that moment, the girl turned her head again, her face troubled. After a few moments of hesitation, she seemed to have made up her mind and spoke.

“Is there anymore? Give me some more.’

“…” Feng Xia remained silent.

Oh, young lady… I can’t believe you’ve gone through so much trouble, shouting about beating and killing people just to freeload off him?

Were freeloaders all so unique these days?

“Speak!”

The girl put one hand on her hip and made a disgruntled noise.

Feng Xia nodded thoughtfully. He grabbed a few more skewers of roasted spiders and handed them over. “There’s plenty more to go around, but… what exactly are you here for?”

The girl looked conflicted again when she saw the roasted spiders in Feng Xia’s hand.

However, after a few seconds, her expression became firm again. “Give them to me first!”

The girl grabbed the roasted spider skewers and bit into them carefully. The fragrance filled the air, causing her to squint involuntarily and snort softly.

“I didn’t expect… it tastes pretty good.”

It was not until she had finished all the skewers of roasted spiders that the girl patted her stomach and lay on her back on the grass. The sides of her skirt were rolled up, and the corners of her top were wrinkled, revealing her stomach which was as smooth as snow.

A complicated expression appeared on that exquisite and flawless face again.

“No wonder you eat it every day.”

“It’s not that I want to eat it. It’s just that this Ancient Forsaken Land is too boring. There’s nothing available at all. Although there are some types of fruits, if I eat them anymore, I will faint.”

As Feng Xia spoke of this, he looked helpless. “It’s just that the black jade spiders taste a little bit like seafood when roasted. In this Ancient Forsaken Land, that can more or less give me some comfort…”

The dark-haired girl’s mouth twitched.

Finally, she stood up with a sigh and did a stretch next to Feng Xia. Then she suddenly jumped, turning into a bolt of black lightning, and disappeared.

Only a voice came from afar.

“I’ll come for you again when I’m free… oh, and I’ll be back to kill you.”

“This girl doesn’t seem very smart…”

Looking at the disappearing figure, Feng Xia shook his head in amusement. After confirming that she was not a threat to him, he did not bother to pursue the matter.

After all, having a girl like an idiot… a silly netizen around would be quite interesting.

Furthermore, he did not know how long he would have to stay in the Ancient Forsaken Land. It was better to have someone accompany him to relieve his boredom and exercise his body and mind than to stay at home for 3,000 years like Patriarch Chenhai…

“Come to think of it, what realm am I in now?”

After eating and drinking his fill, Feng Xia sat cross-legged under the tree. He gradually fell into a strange breathing rhythm. Between each breath, his chest rose and fell in an obvious manner. There were bursts of thunder that seemed to resonate in the surrounding spaces.

According to Patriarch Chenhai, this world categorized divine beings according to their cultivation levels and there were several realms.

The first three realms were: Inception, Divine Power, and Dao Platform.

“The human body has many Mystical Realms. As long as one activates one of them, one will be considered to have stepped into the Inception Realm. However, at this time, one is still only considered a martial artist. Only by mastering a divine power can one be considered to have stepped into the Divine Power Realm. And this realm is also the source of the term ‘divine being’…”

The Dao Platform was the next level above Divine Power.

“After cultivating the Dao Platform, I might be able to leave the Ancient Forsaken Land…” Thinking back to what Patriarch Chenhai had said, Feng Xia felt even more dazed.

“Using the elimination strategy, let’s eliminate one wrong option first.”

“I’ve never opened any Mystical Realm, so I’m definitely not at the Inception Realm.”

“I’ve mastered three soul divine powers, so am I already at the Divine Power Realm? However, this thing that I recently manifested… What is this thing? Dao Platform?”

As he muttered to himself and his thoughts changed, a dark rectangular object appeared behind his head.

He raised his hand and plucked it from behind his head, unwilling to admit it to himself.

“This thing looks like a brick…”
