However, when she saw Xiao Chong standing in front of her, she did not feel anything at all. In other words, the oath had been broken, and the two of them were now separate.
Su Nan felt that Xiao Chong was different now that he had a physical body. Before, he could only take the form of a bug. Although he could transform into any form, he was still a mutated bug.
Now, things were different. Looking at him, he seemed to have gotten rid of his previous problems. She even thought that he was a human who had cultivated demonic arts. The disappearance of the oath this time must have something to do with this transformation.
"I don't know either. Ever since I woke up and ate the pill Gu Zheng prepared for me, I've been like this. But I can change back." Xiao Chong's face was full of confusion. "I've tried. I can stay like this forever. At this time, I can even transform into other forms."
Saying so, Xiao Chong smiled mischievously. With a twist of his body, a figure identical to Xiao Nan appeared. He coughed pretentiously and cupped his fists at Gu Zheng. "Hello, Young Master Gu."
Xiao Nan looked at the figure identical to her. Even the aura on it was 90% similar. It was unbelievable, enough to pass off as the real thing.
Xiaochong's figure then turned and turned into Gu Zheng's appearance. Although the appearance was the same, he could only imitate 40% of Gu Zheng's aura. Those who had seen Gu Zheng before would be able to tell at a glance.
However, if it was used to deceive those who had not seen Gu Zheng before, the effect would still be pretty good. There was a high chance of paralyzing the other party.
Xiao Chong smiled proudly and patted Su Nan's shoulder, winking at her.
Although Su Nan knew that Xiao Chong had transformed, she was still not used to seeing Gu Zheng, who had been fighting for his life just a moment ago, making such an expression in front of her.
"Alright, alright, I got it. Hurry up and transform back." Su Nan quickly interrupted Xiao Chong's show off. Who knew who he would transform into again?
Xiao Chong stuck out his tongue playfully and transformed back to his previous appearance. Compared to the previous illusion, he was slightly taller and more mature.
Gu Zheng looked at the "him" opposite him sticking out his tongue cutely and felt that his worldview had been ruined. He would never do that again.
"I tried it in the valley when I came out. I can still change back to my previous form, but it will take me nearly a day to switch back and forth."
Little Worm continued to speak in high spirits. However, as if he had thought of something, his expression quickly darkened. "In my current state, my defense has also been greatly reduced. Right now, apart from some illusory abilities and simple spatial spells, I can't help Little Nan block any more damage."
"More importantly, I can't spit silk in this form. I don't know why, but I haven't spit silk in a long time. I miss it."
Su Nan didn't know whether to laugh or cry as she looked at the little worm. However, when she heard that it was Gu Zheng who had refined it, she cast a puzzled look at him.
Gu Zheng saw that even Xiao Chong didn't fully understand what was going on, and seeing Su Nan's questioning gaze, he decided to explain it to Su Nan himself.
"That was the Form Restoration Pill I refined for Xiao Chong. The main ingredient in it was a Pill of Abandonment that I obtained by chance. I merely strengthened its effects a little to restore it to its previous state. When Xiao Chong took it, the pill directly transformed her from inside out, strengthening her completely."
Gu Zheng gave a simple explanation of the effects of the Pill of Abandonment. Xiao Chong nodded, half-understanding. To be honest, at that time, he had been thinking about Little Nan, expending a great deal of mental and physical energy to call out to Little Nan. During that time, he had been mostly drowsy.
"In short, Xiao Chong can now change into two forms. The first is Xiao Chong's original form, including her cultivation. Her special abilities will not be weakened at all. If Xiao Chong returns to her original form, then there will still be a bloodline connection between the two of you."
"The other is her current human form. In reality, she can be said to be a human demon cultivator. Her original form is now human, and her cultivation is unchanged. However, her previous abilities have also been greatly weakened. She still has most of her illusory abilities and a small portion of her spatial perception, but nothing else."
"In that case, when I'm in human form, Little Nan can't force me to do anything? I can do whatever I want and eat whatever I want? "Xiao Chong suddenly interrupted. Her eyes were shining brightly, as if she could do some things freely now.
"Yes. At this time, you're actually a completely new human," Gu Zheng said with certainty.
"Oh, that's great! This way, when we fight, Little Nan can't order me to hide anymore. I can also help my Little Nan fight together. And I can also eat whatever I want!"
Xiao Chong jumped up happily and shouted at Little Nan. Thinking of food, he felt a little hungry. He quickly took out a low-grade Flame Dragon Stone from his portable space and threw it into his mouth.
"Pei, pei, this Flame Dragon Stone is so disgusting. Strange, why can't I bite through it?" Xiao Chong quickly spat out the Flame Dragon Stone. There was still some residue in his mouth, and he kept spitting out saliva.
Seeing this, Su Nan was both amused and angry. She quickly took the Flame Dragon Stone from Xiao Chong's hand and handed him a fruit. "You're in human form now, so of course you can't bite through this. Eat this."
Xiao Chong had eaten something like this before. At that time, he had seen Little Nan eating it with great relish. Only when he snatched it over did he realize that he didn't like it. Because he didn't eat it at all, Little Nan even lied to him and said it was delicious.
Little Nan also didn't eat the ores he gave her. That was his favorite snack, and even he couldn't bear to eat it. Now, looking at the fruit in his hand, Xiao Chong hesitated.
Thinking that things were different now, he couldn't bite through the Flame Dragon Stone that he liked before, and it tasted disgusting, so he decided to try it himself. Looking at Su Nan's encouraging gaze, Xiao Chong carefully took a big bite.
The sweet and sour taste filled his mouth. Compared to the past, this was a completely different taste. Xiao Chong's expression changed, and he finished it in a few bites.
Unsatisfied, Little Nan smacked her lips, savoring a taste that she had never tasted before. He hadn't had enough yet, so he quickly leaned on Little Nan and continued to ask for more.
He didn't expect human food to be so delicious. Thinking of the different tastes that Little Nan used to tell him about, Xiao Chong felt a little giddy. He would be so blessed to have so many delicious foods in the future.
Gu Zheng took a deep breath and ignored these two buffoons. He was prepared to tell them everything he knew and guessed. Just based on Xiao Chong's willingness to block Hua Long's attack for him, it was worth it. Even if it cost him most of his medicinal herbs, causing him to be injured, he still had to accept Pan Xuan's gift.
At that time, Xiao Chong might have also known that with his lowly Heavenly Immortal cultivation base, there was a high chance that he wouldn't be able to block the opponent's ferocious attack, and would probably die there.
But in order to prevent himself from being injured, Xiao Chong still came to him without hesitation, wanting to help him. He was so silly that he couldn't bear it.
"It can be said that Xiao Chong can continue to cultivate by learning some human cultivation methods. Before entering Daluo, the cultivation base of both forms can be interchanged. Once you reach Daluo, you can calculate the cultivation base of each form."
Gu Zheng gestured for them to listen carefully. Only then did they stop fooling around and stand there obediently.
Xiao Chong and Su Nan looked at each other. Xiao Chong's heart ached for the huge amount of medicinal herbs. Only then did he remember how much stuff Gu Zheng had spent. He had to spit out a lot of silk threads to eat, so he might as well give them all to himself. What a waste.
Su Nan had many cultivation methods that were suitable for Xiao Chong. She could pick out a suitable one for Xiao Chong. This way, Xiao Chong's cultivation base could increase rapidly.
He wouldn't have to worry about her safety anymore, and Xiao Chong could stay by his side even more safely.
"Thank you." This time, Su Nan thanked him from the bottom of her heart. She didn't know how valuable that elixir was, but as far as she knew, no one could refine such a powerful elixir. She had never heard of it either. Perhaps it had been passed down from ancient times, and was a priceless treasure to those who could use it.
"It's alright, that's what I should do." Gu Zheng saw that Su Nan had actually lowered her head for Xiao Chong. It seemed that his feelings for Xiao Chong were not ordinary.
Gu Zheng suddenly thought of Xue 'er. Zhao Man didn't know that the Xue' er he liked was actually a kind fox spirit. But even if he knew, he would still continue to pursue her. He didn't know how they were doing now. If they didn't wait for him, they would probably have left long ago.
Just like Su Nan and Xiao Chong, their relationship had already surpassed that of master and servant. It was just that Xiao Chong was a little silly and couldn't feel it. Su Nan was already used to it and didn't notice. Especially after seeing Xiao Chong as her only family, she wouldn't think of it that way.
Su Nan and Gu Zheng's relationship eased a little, and they weren't as tense as before. Although the misunderstanding had been resolved, the battle just now was real. Both of them were injured, and Xiao Chong was still between them.
Meanwhile, Xiao Chong didn't have any awareness at all. He thought that everything would be fine after the two of them apologized to each other, and was even moving around mischievously.
"Let's go back. Don't stay here any longer." Gu Zheng suggested. If he was a few days late, it would be more than a month. It would take a lot of time to consider going back.
"En, let's go." Su Nan also wanted to go back and treat her injuries. Although her injuries had stabilized, she still needed the help of that pagoda to recover faster.
The three of them left directly. The group continued to advance from the side of the forest.
"Right, Xiao Chong, how did you know we were here?" On the way, Gu Zheng suddenly realized that Xiao Chong shouldn't have been able to detect him because he had already changed his aura.
"I left a type of medicinal powder on my body. That way, I can follow your path and find you." Xiao Chong blinked his eyes.
"You're really bold. How did you get into Puppet Town? Won't you get caught if you go in like this?"
Gu Zheng's face was full of worry. He didn't know how Xiao Chong had managed to follow him. After all, he had been walking in circles these days. Even Brother Snake was getting a little annoyed by him.
"I didn't go. When I was following the traces on the road, I happened to find that there was a battle here some time ago. I sensed Xiao Nan's scent from it, so I came here."
Su Nan and Gu Zheng looked at each other. So she was attracted by their battle. Fortunately, she came in time. Otherwise, it would have been terrible. But she was really bold, daring to come out alone. What if she got caught?
Thinking of this, Gu Zheng and Su Nan felt a lingering fear. Su Nan especially felt that she had suffered a lot by leaving Xiao Chong here, even though she had no choice.
"Right, Gu Zheng, you dropped this, right?" Xiao Chong suddenly said, taking out an inconspicuous gourd.
"How did you pick it up?" Gu Zheng looked at the gourd in Xiao Chong's hand. He didn't expect Xiao Chong to give him such a surprise. No wonder he couldn't sense the aura of the gourd. He thought someone else had picked it up. He didn't expect Xiao Chong to pick it up.
"I was following you when I suddenly found it. I thought you must have accidentally dropped it, so I kept it for you." Xiao Chong's eyes narrowed again. He was happy to be able to help Gu Zheng.
"Here." Xiao Chong threw it over. Gu Zheng quickly caught it.
As soon as the gourd landed in Gu Zheng's hand, it immediately shone brightly. It spun twice above Gu Zheng's head before slowly falling into Gu Zheng's hand.
Gu Zheng carefully touched the gourd before putting it away.
Su Nan looked at the magic weapon in Gu Zheng's hand and a trace of fear flashed through her heart. Just by looking at it, she felt that this magic weapon could cause great harm to her. It seemed that this magic weapon was quite powerful. But since Xiao Chong had already given it to him, she didn't need to think about it anymore.
"Thanks, Xiao Chong." Gu Zheng's last worry was gone. He could finally relax a little. Thinking of this, he took out a bracelet and handed it to Xiao Chong. Inside were things he had prepared in the outside world. He needed them too.
"Wow, what's in here? Let me see." Xiao Chong took the bracelet and put it on his wrist without anyone teaching him. "That's great, Gu Zheng."
Xiao Chong happily took out a fruit and put it in his mouth. It tasted different from before. Xiao Chong loved these things to death.
Su Nan looked at Xiao Chong's wrist enviously. She hadn't prepared anything for a woman, so she didn't expect Xiao Chong to become like this.
"Hey, this is for you." Su Nan took out Gu Zheng's magistrate pen. Although she wanted to keep this thing, she knew that the Cold Silk Water was definitely in Gu Zheng's hands. In comparison, Su Nan still preferred her own. After all, it was more useful to her.
"Thanks, I'll return this to you." Gu Zheng also threw Su Nan's treasure over. The two of them exchanged it.
Su Nan looked at the Cold Silk Water in her hand with heartache. It was already a little damaged. Luckily, it wasn't too big. She just needed to warm it up when she got back.
"Oh right, Xiao Chong, you've already turned into such a beautiful lady. Why don't you change your name? Xiao Chong doesn't sound nice." Gu Zheng asked Xiao Chong. Just now, he had called this beautiful lady Xiao Chong. How inappropriate would that be?
"Wu wu." Xiao Chong's head was like a rattle-drum, shaking back and forth. His mouth was stuffed with food, so he could only muffled a protest.
"How about Xiao Xin, Xiao Die, Xiao Mei? They're all not bad." Gu Zheng purposely said a few names.
"No, I want to be called Xiao Chong. This is the name Xiao Nan gave me. I don't want to change it." After swallowing the food in his mouth with great difficulty, Xiao Chong immediately protested unhappily.
Xiao Nan felt that she was already used to it. Although she also felt that it was inappropriate, she couldn't just do whatever Gu Zheng said. Even if she wanted to change it, that was her own matter. Gu Zheng had interfered too much.
Gu Zheng saw that Su Nan was glaring at him with anger, but he didn't say anything.
After a few days, the three of them were about to enter Puppet Town. At the side of the forest, the three of them stood side by side.
"Are you following me or following him?" Gu Zheng teased Xiao Chong. "Old Xiong asked you to protect me."
"No, I want to follow my Xiao Nan. You're already very strong. But if you need my help, you can call me. I've left a message on Chan Yi. No matter how far it is, I'll be able to receive it."
Xiao Chong shook his head vigorously. He even leaned his body closer to Su Nan. Since he had found Xiao Nan, he would follow her. As for Old Xiong's arrangements, he would just go when he needed it.
The Chan Yi that had been damaged previously had already been restored to normal under Xiao Chong's efforts. However, Gu Zheng did not bring it with him for the time being. This thing was too conspicuous here. If it was discovered, it would be difficult to explain.
Su Nan reached out and patted Xiao Chong's head. Xiao Chong even rubbed his head comfortably.
"Then, goodbye." Gu Zheng looked at this scene and could not bear to look. It was better to just leave. A doting demon and an overly pampered pet. What a strange combination.
"Goodbye. Remember to prepare some good food for me." Xiao Chong waved his hand at Gu Zheng. He did not forget about the good food. The huge pile from before had all been eaten by Xiao Chong.
"Oh right, Xiao Chong. Change back to your old appearance." Su Nan said to Xiao Chong. She did not know if Young Master Feng had sent people here to look for Xiao Chong. Given Young Master Feng's intelligence, he would definitely have thought of this.
For safety's sake, it was better to let Xiao Chong change back to his old appearance. This way, with Xiao Chong's concealment, no one would discover them.
"Don't!" Xiao Chong tugged at Su Nan's sleeve and swayed back and forth. He really liked his current appearance and did not want to change back to that ugly appearance. Although Xiao Chong looked pretty good in his azure clothes, in comparison, Xiao Chong preferred his current appearance.
"No, listen to me. This way, you can eat other snacks." Su Nan almost agreed directly. However, thinking that the danger was too great, she still hardened her heart and refused.
Su Nan even took out a purer Fire Dragon Rock and waved it at Xiao Chong.
"Fire Dragon Rock. I like it very much." Xiao Chong snatched the Fire Dragon Rock over. However, his mouth was too small and could not fit in. Xiao Chong's face was bitter. In the end, he changed into Xiao Chong's appearance and swallowed it, flying into Su Nan's ear.
Fire Dragon Rock was the original name. In the Shura Realm, most people preferred to call it Fire Dragon Rock. It sounded more imposing, but it did not matter. After all, it was the same thing.
Su Nan heaved a sigh of relief and walked towards the tower. She needed to go in. As for those ring guards, humph, they'd better pay up and go in this time.
