After returning to his cave abode from the peak, Chu Chen didn't immediately lie down to rest.
On the one hand, he was very excited to have refined the sword qi Dao seed.
On the other hand, he had a new plan for the future.
Now that his senses were able to sense the immortal mark of the Golden-winged Great Peng, then comprehending the divine ability contained within the mark would be a matter of course.
He had just condensed the sword qi Dao seed, so he needed time to digest and settle it.
He wasn't in a hurry to touch the immortal mark of the Golden-Winged Great Peng. He didn't want to rush things.
Currently, he still had a lot of spirit jades left from the Gufeng Great Senior Brothers he had extorted. He estimated that he wouldn't need that much to comprehend the immortal mark of the Golden-Winged Great Peng.
Counting the days, the opening of the Small Immortal Realm was about to arrive. If he wanted to rescue his Little Junior Sister from the Small Immortal Realm, where the situation was extremely complicated, he would have to plan carefully and make sufficient preparations.
Therefore, before completely comprehending the immortal mark, Chu Chen planned to take a look at the cultivator market in the Western Wilderness Region. He planned to buy some treasures that could save his life in a critical moment.
After all, the Small Immortal Realm was a completely foreign world to him.
With the spirit jades he currently had, it was enough to buy some things that could be of great help.
After making up his mind, Chu Chen finally returned to his bedroom and fell asleep.
After sleeping for three days and three nights, Chu Chen woke up. He felt refreshed and had an indescribable sense of comfort and happiness.
After packing up his things in the cave abode, Chu Chen sensed that there didn't seem to be Zi Xi's aura in the cave abode. The corners of his mouth twitched, and his figure turned into a gray shadow that rushed out of the cave abode.
At this moment, on a towering ancient pine outside the cave abode, Zi Xi, who was dressed in purple, was silently sitting on a thick branch of the ancient pine. Her beautiful face was expressionless as she stared at the horizon. No emotion could be seen in her eyes.
Under the warm light of the sunrise, the purple-haired girl's clothes fluttered. Her ethereal and tranquil face seemed to be filled with an immortal aura. There was an indescribable sense of beauty.
Chu Chen silently raised his head to admire the beautiful scenery in front of him. His expression changed, and he couldn't help but ask softly.
"I often see you sitting on the tree in a daze. I guess you have nothing to do in this Gufeng city. By the way, do you ever feel bored?"
In fact, Chu Chen was very curious about this girl with an incomplete soul.
"Bored?"
The purple eyes paused for a moment before turning back to look at Chu Chen.
"No, I've always been alone. This is my way of life. I don't know what boredom is."
Zi Xi did not know why she answered Chu Chen's meaningless question, but she still spoke up instinctively.
"Uh …"
Chu Chen smiled. "How about this? Since you have nothing to do, why don't you accompany me down the mountain?"
"Down the mountain?"
The girl's delicate brows furrowed slightly. Almost without thinking, she shook her head decisively.
"No, our agreement doesn't stipulate that I have to accompany you down the mountain."
"I'm not asking you to go down the mountain to accompany me. There are more people down the mountain, and it's more lively. There are all kinds of people, so the news will be more widespread. Maybe someone knows about the young Golden-winged Giant Peng Bird that you've been chasing."
Chu Chen guided her patiently.
"There's no need to go through so much trouble. I can stay on the mountain by myself."
The girl's expression was as indifferent as ever. "I can't tell whether the news is true or false. It's too troublesome for me. As long as I stay here, the young Golden-winged Giant Peng Bird will definitely come. I'll just wait."
The corners of Chu Chen's mouth twitched fiercely. This soulless girl was not easy to fool!
"Alright, I'll tell you the truth. You know that I've already offended a lot of people when I fought against those Earth-Level Gufeng Senior Brothers. This time, if I go down the mountain by myself, I'm afraid that those people won't let me off. I'm afraid that I'll be in danger."
Huh?
The cold purple light in her eyes flickered slightly at this moment, but it quickly calmed down.
The girl's chest rose and fell slightly, but her tone was still emotionless.
"It has nothing to do with me. Our agreement was that I would only help you fight on the Duxu Peak. I didn't say that I would help you fight your enemies down the mountain."
"How callous. How can you say that it has nothing to do with you?"
Chu Chen's eyebrows drooped, looking pitiful.
"After all, we're friends who live under the same roof. If something really happens to me, won't you feel lonely living alone in this cave? Besides, this mountain has always been haunted. It's not good for a girl like you to stay alone in such a gloomy and scary place. "
The girl hesitated for a moment, but in the end, she gently shook her head.
"You're much stronger than me. If your life is in danger, then even if I'm here, I won't be of much help."
"Haven't you heard that two fists are no match for four hands? No matter how strong I am, I'm only one person. Who knows how many enemies are lying in ambush at the foot of the mountain? After all, you know how much those Senior Brothers hate me. It can be said that experts are as common as clouds. "
Chu Chen's expression was exaggerated. "No matter how strong a person is, they won't be able to withstand a swarm of enemies. With you by my side, I'll have more chances of survival."
The air suddenly quieted down.
Chu Chen looked "pitifully" at the expressionless girl who was as perfect as a doll.
After a long while, the young girl's clear and cold gaze swept across Chu Chen before she finally nodded her head gently.
"Okay, I'll go down the mountain with you. But let me say this first. If you're not at a critical moment of life and death, I won't intervene."
"Of course. Why would I trouble you to intervene if I can easily defeat an opponent?"
Chu Chen clasped his hands together and laughed. "Then go back and pack. This trip will take a few days. See if there's anything you want to take with you."
Zi Xi silently thought for a moment, then nodded indifferently. With a leap, her lithe figure floated down like a purple cloud and swept towards the cave residence.
"I say, kid, what are you planning? Why do you insist on making me follow you down the mountain?"
Just as Chu Chen was looking in the direction that Zi Xi disappeared with a smile, the little hamster's little head popped out from his clothes and said with a look of disdain.
"Kid, you're quite thick-skinned. She didn't want to go at first, but you shamelessly dragged her along."
"What do you mean shamelessly? I'm just giving her a way out. You have to know that girls are more shy and reserved. You have to beg a few more times, understand?"
Chu Chen glared at the little hamster.
"Besides, what purpose could I have? I just saw that she was bored here alone, so I invited her to go down the mountain to play. You damned rat, you're thinking too much."
