The Journey of Immortal Cultivation-Chapter 853 - 470: Fire

"I said, she only seeks one night to soothe her lifelong loneliness." Watching the man’s eyes turn red like a wolf was still quite shocking. To prevent him from suddenly going mad, she quickly reminded, "If you don’t chase her now, you really won’t catch up."

Tantai Yi’s throat moved, and suddenly he dashed out. The car curtain, flung open abruptly, rebounded and almost smashed the thick snowflakes onto her.

This man was both pretentious and rude, what on earth does Sister Huo’er see in him? Ning Xiaoxian rolled her eyes, opened the window pane, and instructed outside, "Qi Zai, escort Tantai Yi for a bit, so he doesn’t miss the beauty."

A white shadow instantly flashed past outside.

She leisurely picked up a book. Changtian couldn’t help but say, "Aren’t you worried?"

"What’s there to worry about?" Ning Xiaoxian said leisurely, "Sister Huo’er has given him her body and soul, as long as he catches up and says a few soft and pleasing words, she’ll definitely forgive him immediately. A woman’s heart is originally softer than tofu."

"You’re really not worried?"

"Relax, my plan is very well thought out, there won’t be any surprises."

He coughed lightly, "You’ve got the book the wrong way around."

"..." Her face flushed like fire, she had to change the subject, "How’s Tu Jin? Xu Liangyu isn’t dead, right?"

"Not dead, just injured a bit." It was Tu Jin who answered. He lifted the curtain and walked in from outside, light snow still hanging on his eyebrows. Seeing no one was paying attention, Ning Xiaoxian brought him into the God Demon Prison.

"Sir, mission accomplished." Tu Jin respectfully bowed to Chang Tianxing.

Changtian rarely shook his head smiling, "These past ten-plus days, thanks to you accompanying this girl’s antics, otherwise her plan would definitely fail."

Tu Jin pressed his lips and suddenly said, "I want to ask Sir for a reward."

"Oh? Speak." Not only Ning Xiaoxian, but even Changtian became interested. Although Tu Jin was cold by nature, he never failed in executing tasks, nor did he seek any reward. This time, he actually wanted a prize?

"I would like to borrow that Poison Phoenix Core from Sir."

Ning Xiaoxian widened her eyes in surprise, yet Changtian wasn’t surprised at all, raising his hand to roll the round inner core towards him. "Take it."

Tu Jin’s poker face showed no expression, revealing no clue, he simply extended his hand to take the core, bowing once more before retreating.

"Which play is this acting out, why do I not understand?" She felt slightly confused, "What’s he going to do with the Poison Phoenix Core?"

Changtian shrugged, "Who knows?"

She gave him a dubious look. Why did she feel that he surely knew?

===

Three hours later.

"What exactly did Xu Liangyu say to you sixteen days ago?" This question was like a thorn in Tantai Yi’s heart, he couldn’t help but ask.

Now he and Hu Huo’er were in a cave two hundred miles away from the convoy, the place was dry and warm.

With Qi Zai’s speed, carrying him so far to finally catch up with Hu Huo’er, it showed just how deeply upset she was. Hu Huo’er was cold as ice, completely ignoring him, forcing Tantai Yi to resort to seizing her. His cultivation was far higher than hers, it wasn’t much effort to subdue her.

He knew he had gone too far today, moreover he truly liked her, thus he spent a good while gently coaxing and persuading. Poor him, never having coaxed a woman in these decades, his mouth nearly dried up, but finally he made the beauty smile through tears.

It started snowing again.

He wrapped them both in a blanket, lying by the fire, watching the snowflakes fall outside the cave. Tonight, Hu Huo’er experienced the clouds and rain for the first time, first entwining with her beloved for ages, then heartbroken she flew over two hundred miles with her sword, even with cultivation she was truly exhausted, snuggling into his arms and muttering, "I forgot." Soon she was asleep on his arm.

Tantai Yi sighed softly, kissed her lightly on the lips, shifted his position to let her lean more comfortably, not noticing the slight smile she secretly showed.

Sixteen days ago, the first thing Xu Liangyu said to her was: "Miss Ning has already had a deep conversation with me. I will give up pursuing you, and help you win over Tantai Yi."

Sister Xian really persuaded him! Hu Huo’er was incredulous, "What method did she use?" Xu Liangyu had been following all the way, determined in his pursuit, what method did Ning Xiaoxian use to cause such a sudden major change?

By then Xu Liangyu had already been controlled by Tu Jin with a soul avatar, naturally, he had to say whatever Ning Xiaoxian wanted, but of course, he still had to give a reason, otherwise how to gain Hu Huo’er’s trust? Thus he chuckled bitterly: "Miss Ning has made me understand, you will never fall for me. Besides, if I lend you assistance, the Hidden Stream’s business in the Central Southern of the Southern Continent will be entrusted entirely to the Washing Sword Pavilion." He sincerely said, "Rest assured, I will definitely help you through to the end. This is an exclusive deal, I have no way to refuse."
