Realms In The Firmament

Ye Xiao rolled his eyes up and clicked on Xuan Bing’s head with a finger tap, smilingly said, “You can’t. Neither can I… Even I can’t do such thing… Your imagination seems to run riot, but you are right. It is a shame we don’t have the capability.”

Xuan Bing held her head and twisted her lips, “You bullied me, master!”

Ye Xiao laughed.

Xuan Bing didn’t know why… but when she was with Ye Xiao, her aura of a supreme cultivator was completely gone. She was just an ordinary girl… A woman who relied on a man.

That was all!

It seemed her time of a young girl that she had missed in her life was back to her with Ye Xiao’s company.

The most annoying thing was that she didn’t feel wrong about it at all. She was totally willing to be so.

She felt happy, relieved physically and mentally.

What filled in her heart was the most enjoyable pleasure.

“Deconstruct the space. Well, it is easy to say… Space is everything. Space means the world. It was so difficult to tear space apart, not to mention deconstructing it. Tearing space means tearing the world…” Ye Xiao, “That’s tough…”

“We can shuttle through space… No, what we do, that is not shuttling through space.” Ye Xiao sighed and said, “We are… We are merely faster than normal people. It is difficult to shuttle through space, isn’t it?”

Xuan Bing nodded to agree.

She thought, [Shuttling through space… is to tear a fissure in space between the starting point and the destination. As long as the physical body could endure the avulsion, one can go between two places instantly.]

[Tearing space is actually easier than shuttling through space… Master, you are wrong.]

[Deconstructing space will cause an impact on the whole space. It microscopically deconstructs something but causes a macroscopical transformation. That is the extreme form of a spatial attack!]

She knew a lot, but she didn’t dare to say a word about it.

– Pang, pang… –

The cold crystal in Ye Xiao’s hand was making striking sounds. It was going to break.

They had no idea what to do.

Coincidently, at that moment…

“Meow?”

The meow of a cat sounded with confusion.

A little white cat which was only as big as a fist abruptly showed up on the table. Staring at the crystal thing in Ye Xiao’s hand with its big cute eyes, shaking its whiskers, it suddenly got shocked and shouted in high spirit, “Meow!”

Erhuo was excited.

It had been taking a nap in the Boundless Space after being disappointed by not absorbing any energy from the fruit. However, after that, it felt that something delicious was outside the Space.

It surely wouldn’t hesitate to get out and search for it. After searching for a while, it disappointedly didn’t find anything, so it was ready to go back to the Space. That was when it noticed the crystal ball in Ye Xiao’s hand…

[Wait!]

[Isn’t that a treasure?]

Its eyes couldn’t stop staring at it.

Erhuo looked at Ye Xiao like it was begging. Ye Xiao was enlightened. It reminded him of something that had happened in the past. He put the crystal thing on the table and said, “This thing… Can you do something about it?”

Erhuo proudly raised up its head, “Meow? Meow meow! Meow meow meow? Meow…”

‘What do you mean can you do something about it? You actually think I can not! What do you think I can’t do?’

‘Fine. You are giving me this treasured thing so I will go easy with you… Do not say this again…’

It was Xuan Bing’s first time to see Erhuo. Well, Bing-er had seen it, and she thought it was just a normal cat. Now, she was Xuan Bing, so she recognized the special animal at first sight… It was definitely not a normal cat.

Her eyes lit up, and she said, “What an adorable cat!”

When she reached out a hand to touch it, ready to hold it in her arms, Erhuo disdainfully tapped her hand away, groaning deep in its throat.

‘Not now! Wait if you want a hug hug! I am busy here… You little girl, get away. Don’t disturb me… What? You are worse than before now, aren’t you? Keep your eyes up!’

The next moment, the crystal ball finally broke. – Pah! –

A cloud of dark qi rushed out, and Erhuo was thrilled. It shouted, “Meow!”

Then it jumped up and opened the mouth, swallowing the dark qi into its belly entirely.

Erhuo was just as domineering as when it swallowed the Red and White Clouds!

As it swallowed the dark qi, it hurriedly shut the mouth tight, took a few steps like dragon’s walk, and then jumped into Ye Xiao’s arms, proudly closed its eyes.

“Meow.”

What it meant was obvious…’I have eaten something great. It takes time to digest. Hold me for a while. I accept your embrace. It is your honor, not any other’s…’

Then it comfortably closed its eyes.

Ye Xiao knew what would happen, but he was still surprised. He still couldn’t believe what just happened.

He had been troubled for a long time by the problem, yet Erhuo just solved it. Even though it should be able to deal with it, wasn’t it too easy? Opening a mouth, swallowing it, taking a breath… and that was it!

Erhuo had swallowed all those Red and White Clouds indeed, but those clouds had been restrained in that place for years. Compared to the clouds, the dark qi was a living spiritual mind! Wasn’t it unbelievable to just swallow it so casually?

That was…

Xuan Bing’s eyes lit up. As she looked at Erhuo, she liked it more now.

[I was, well, Bing-er was ignorant! This cat is so extraordinary!]

[When it first showed up… It moved so fast. I couldn’t even catch it, or even feel it. That is what makes it so extraordinary!]

[Look what it has done just now! It casually swallowed the dark qi in full! Ye Xiao and I could think of no ways to control that dark thing! The cat just swallowed it!]

[The cat ate it like it was some food of highly nutritious value!]

[How is an ordinary cat able to do such thing?]
