Swindling and stealing!
Healing class, taking seven days to open the second Soul Seal, being chosen by the Virtual Soul Combat Corporation … These questions revolved around the old man's mind, lingering for a long time. The more he thought about it, the happier he felt.
Very soon, several hours passed. Xia Fei had a good night's sleep, feeling indescribably satisfied.
Slightly startled, Xia Fei realized that Radix was looking at him with an excited expression.
"Radix, what's wrong?" Xia Fei asked curiously.
"I'm happy! I'm so happy! "Radix said excitedly." The Aurora Tribe finally has its own spirit-master! And one of the true spirit-masters! If you can return to the tribe, it'll be a great fortune for the Aurora Tribe. From now on, the family won't have to curry favor with a spirit-master for such trivial matters.
"Furthermore, you've managed to open the second Soul Seal in just a few days. You'll definitely be able to avenge the young master, and those wretched Renegade Ghosts will disappear from the universe forever!"
Radix waved his fist excitedly as he spoke, almost crying out loud.
Xia Fei shrugged and muttered to himself, "To be honest, I don't really want to return to the Aurora Tribe. Though I have the bloodline of the Aurora Tribe in me, I've never even seen this family before. In my mind, I'm still an Earthling.
"Besides, my grandfather was chased out by the Aurora Tribe. If I go back like this, it'll be fine if they acknowledge me, but won't I just be asking for trouble if they don't? I think I should just forget about it. The Law Realm is still safe for now, and I still have enough time to improve myself. Whether it's the Renegade Ghosts or that mysterious woman, I might not lose as long as I have time.
"It's better to rely on yourself than on others. No matter how powerful the Aurora Tribe is, that's their business. It has nothing to do with me."
Xia Fei had always been a maverick, and he was not as naive as Radix. If the Aurora Tribe really had the guts, they would not have sent his grandfather Xiao Gu out back then, so Xia Fei was not very interested in Radix's suggestion.
Who knew that Radix would actually cry, complaining in front of Xia Fei, saying that the Aurora Tribe had no choice but to leave? He even brought up Xia Fei's grandfather, which annoyed him greatly.
At this moment, he suddenly heard Drifting Dust talking outside the door. He was a true Soul Master, so the conversation between Xia Fei and Radiance naturally did not escape his ears.
"Radix is right. I also think that you should pay a visit to the Aurora Tribe, using your true identity. Let's not talk about acknowledging your ancestors for now. If their attitude is good, it's not a bad thing for you to acknowledge them as your relative, and you'll immediately be able to break free from the Law Realm."
Xia Fei was slightly taken aback. Putting aside everything else, just the fact that he could immediately dispel the Renegade Ghosts was very tempting to Xia Fei. Saying that he did not miss Avril, his companions on Earth, or those cute fellows from the Skywing Clan was definitely a lie. In truth, Xia Fei could not wait to see Avril again.
Fuchen did not stand on ceremony, directly pulling open the door and entering Xia Fei's room, taking a seat by the side.
Xia Fei smiled and helplessly said, "Your suggestion is very tempting, but you should also know that there's still a mortal enemy who won't rest until I'm dead. If I show my face, I'll be pushing myself into the fire pit."
Fuchen didn't think much of it and said, "What about you? Avoid this woman for the rest of my life? "
"Of course I can't!" Xia Fei sternly said, "I can't avoid her for the rest of my life. There will be a day when I'll pay her a visit and demand justice."
Xia Fei was serious. Though he did not believe in curses or whatnot, there were many strange people in the universe. Who knew if this enemy had some sort of method that could harm him and Avril?
It would be fine if it was just him, but as long as Avril was involved, Xia Fei would immediately be unable to remain calm. Thus, no matter what, this mysterious woman had to die. It was just that Xia Fei did not have the ability to kill her yet.
Fuchen laughed. "Who knows how many years that'll take? I have a way to ensure that you don't have to worry about anything."
Xia Fei was startled and hurriedly asked, "What way?!"
Fuchen softly said, "It's very simple. You're a true healing-type soul master, so you'll definitely be able to create many soul tools with healing abilities. Right now, the number of soul masters in the universe is dwindling. Even this old man can't create a healing-type soul tool.
"Speaking of which, I've dealt with that enemy of yours before. At most, this old man will help you get rid of him. As for the price … I'll take 30% of the soul tools that you create in the future."
Xia Fei furrowed his eyebrows. 30% meant that Old Fuchen would take three out of every ten soul tools. It was not too much of a price to pay in exchange for breaking free from the Law Realm.
"Deal," Xia Fei straightforwardly said.
Fuchen appeared very pleased with himself. He smiled as he took out an iron book from his spatial ring and handed it over to Xia Fei.
"What's this?" Xia Fei curiously asked.
"Oh, this is a foundational cultivation technique of the soul type. Learn it well. If you're unable to create a high-grade soul tool in the future, this old man will have lost out on this deal. Also, from today onwards, don't participate in any Soul Battle Simulations anymore. Focus on learning this foundational scroll and recover your body. If your hands are itchy, go to the training center.
"The Mammoth is a public place, after all. You've already caused a big enough commotion recently. Just let Xiao Fei's name rest for a few months."
Xia Fei pursed his lips. Indeed, there was no such thing as a free meal in this world. It was fine if he could strike a deal with Old Fuchen, but he still had to be restricted by him.
…
Xiao Fei's name suddenly faded from the public's view, and everyone was not used to it. In the blink of an eye, three months had passed. The Mammoth had already reached the periphery of the Tarot Star River. In another two days, it would be the end of its long voyage.
In these three months, Xia Fei had spent most of his time focused on learning. Though he had not leveled up, he had gained a lot in regards to the techniques of the soul master branch. More importantly, his body had not only fully recovered, but he was even stronger than before he was injured!
As usual, Xia Fei arrived at the training center, opened the door, and walked in. The first thing he did was to check the screen and see a message.
"You're really amazing. In just three months, your movement technique is already close to perfection! Ninety-seven points! Also, your reaction speed is unimaginably fast, but I still can't understand why you're only doing basic training here. Are you afraid that I'll find out that your soul power is very weak? "
The tone was still as innocent and mischievous as before, and there was even a picture of a duckling sticking its tongue out at Xia Fei.
This message was left by Ye Zishui. This girl would come to the training center every day to check the records from yesterday. Xia Fei's body was gradually recovering, and she was amazed by it. She, who had a pure heart, simply left a message for Xia Fei in the system. Occasionally, when Xia Fei did not go to the training center, the girl would ask about his physical condition.
Xia Fei would also reply a sentence or two from time to time, but it was nothing more than, "Not bad," "Not bad," "I had something to do yesterday," and other simple words.
Xia Fei helplessly shrugged, muttering to himself, "What do you mean by weak soul power? I'm a spiritual energy cultivator, alright? "
Smiling, Xia Fei casually left four words on the screen. "Soul power? I don't get it. "
His finger left the screen, and Xia Fei suddenly discovered a pair of shiny earrings on the ground. Ye Zishui had probably left them here.
After some thought, Xia Fei casually put the pair of earrings into his spatial ring.
…
Early in the morning, Xia Fei left on time, and Ye Zishui arrived at the training center on time. The two of them just happened to pass by each other. Who asked them to have their times reversed, having not seen each other even once in the past three months?
Ye Zishui looked at the message on the screen, then looked at the pair of earrings that she had purposely left behind yesterday. She covered her mouth and secretly giggled.
"Seventh young master Xiao, actually stealing someone else's things," Ye Zishui's cheeks were bright red as she muttered to herself.
Little did she know that Seventh young master Xiao had been so depressed that he had not come to the training center for three months, holding his breath to train One-Armed Starry, that the one who had left her a message during this time was actually Xia Fei.
Shivatu, who was waiting outside, helplessly sighed. How could he not know about Ye Zishui's little tricks? It was just that he had never tried to stop them from happening, and he looked at Ye Zishui with sympathy.
At the same time, Xia Fei had already arrived at the dining hall. He ordered a table full of delicious food and started feasting with old man Fuchen. However, the amount of food today seemed to be a lot more than usual, and Fuchen had also ordered a lot of takeaway.
"We'll be leaving in a bit," Fuchen said as he ate.
Xia Fei was slightly taken aback. "We haven't even reached the Tarot Star River. Isn't it a little too early for us to leave?"
Fuchen nonchalantly pointed to a dark belt of planets in the distance and said, "I happen to know of a place nearby that has an abundance of spiritual energy. It's perfect for crafting soul tools. We'll be heading there in a bit. These are all for the journey; there won't be so many delicacies once we leave the Mammoth.
"Besides, we won't be able to stay even if we want to. When we reach the terminal, they'll make us pay the bill. Will you be able to fork out such a large sum of money?"
* Pfft *
Xia Fei nearly choked on his food upon hearing this.
In the end, he was just trying to run away without paying the bill!
…
The term "wily old fox" could not be more fitting for Fuchen. After eating and drinking with Xia Fei for three months, the two of them actually stole a lifeboat and ran away!
There were no obstructions along the way. Not only did Fuchen know the command for the lifeboat to leave the ship, he had even planned out the route beforehand. It was obvious that he had planned this beforehand.
The small boat swayed and landed on a green planet. The scenery from the boat was pretty good.
Xia Fei got off the boat and took a deep breath of fresh air. He immediately felt invigorated.
"What a place with an abundance of spiritual energy! How did you manage to find this place? "
Fuchen still had that nonchalant look as he laughed. "What's so difficult about it? Usually, famous Clerics will specifically search for such planets and seal them for future use. You just need to learn how to steal the records that these fellows carry with them, and you'll be able to find many such places. "
* Uh ~ *
Xia Fei was instantly speechless. The free meal had just ended, and Old Fuchen was already scheming to steal other people's spiritual energy! How was this even possible?
"If we take too long, they might discover us. What are you waiting for? Hurry up and start." Fuchen looked at Xia Fei and said.
Xia Fei shrugged. "This place might be good, but I don't have anything suitable to craft a soul tool. I won't be able to craft anything even if I have so much spiritual energy."
Old Fuchen mysteriously smiled and said, "Don't forget, soul imprints have a very powerful function, and that's to store spiritual energy! Who asked you to craft? First store all the spiritual energy and then we'll head to the next place. "
