Chapter 31 - Manipulative Fiance

Upon hearing what Ye Chen said, Leng Ruoxue was stunned. I-is this something a man should say? Protect this freak from female perverts? If you're so scared, why are you going out and wandering around? Although she couldn't see this freak's strength, his companion was an advanced Spiritual Sovereign!

"I also need protection, so…" Leng Ruoxue actually wanted to say that she couldn't protect him, but before she could finish, he interrupted her.

"That's even better! I'll protect you, and you'll protect me! We'll protect each other!" Ye Chen smiled brightly.

Leng Ruoxue felt helpless. She could tell that the man was planning to rely on her.

"Xue'er, I've prepared breakfast!" Feng Moran said.

"Okay." Leng Ruoxue decided not to intertwine over the matter. If he wants to rely on me, there's nothing much I can do. I'll just enjoy breakfast first!

After breakfast, Leng Ruoxue gave Feng Moran a pill. "Big Brother Feng, go and break through!"

"Is this a… spiritual essence pill?" Feng Moran looked at the pill in Xue'er's hand in astonishment. He knew that she was an alchemist, but he didn't expect her to be able to concoct spiritual essence pills. Doesn't this mean she's already a Master Alchemist? Although Master Alchemists were not top-tier, they were highly sought after by major forces.

"Yes. After you advance, we'll leave here," Leng Ruoxue said. She had stayed here for a while and almost finished picking all the herbs, so it was time for her to move on.

With a grateful look, Feng Moran took the pill from Xue'er and entered his tent.

After seeing him enter his tent, Leng Ruoxue set up a barrier around it to prevent him from being disturbed.

"Xue'er, let's have grilled fish for lunch!" Ye Chen didn't want to be ignored and pestered her.

"We just had breakfast…" Leng Ruoxue said. Another glutton?!

"Let's prepare first!" Ye Chen looked at the stunning beauty pitifully.

"Then go and prepare!" Leng Ruoxue said helplessly.

Hearing her words, he took off to prepare for lunch happily.

Two hours later, Leng Ruoxue sensed more and more spiritual energy flowing toward Feng Moran's tent and knew that he was about to break through. Seems like the spiritual essence pill is effective.

An hour later, as the heaven and earth laws faded away, Feng Moran emerged from his tent, looking refreshed and elated. "Xue'er, thank you!"

Feng Moran's eyes glittered like stars as he looked at Leng Ruoxue with gratitude. Although he was the eldest son of the main branch of the Feng family, he was not qualified to take a spiritual essence pill due to his lacking aptitude in such a top-notch family with abundant talents. He didn't expect to meet Xue'er and change his fate.

"I, Feng Moran, am willing to follow Leng Ruoxue all my life and will never betray her!" Feng Moran suddenly declared solemnly. With that, a contract array descended, covering them in it.

"Follower contract? Big Brother Feng, you…" Leng Ruoxue didn't know what to say. She just looked at Feng Moran slightly reproachfully. She knew that he wanted to thank her, but he didn't have to use this method!

The follower contract was one of the severest contracts between people on the Ling Feng continent. The follower in the contract had to be forever loyal, and betrayal was impermissible regardless of thought or action. Otherwise, the follower would be obliterated by heaven and earth laws.

"Big Brother Feng, go wash up and change your clothes." Seeing that things had already unfolded like this, Leng Ruoxue knew that it was meaningless to say anything else. But she knew that she couldn't only treat Feng Moran as a partner anymore but also as a family member.

Feng Moran looked down and realized that a grayish-black substance giving off a peculiar smell was covering his body. He blushed and hurried to the nearby river to wash up.

It seems that adding jade elixir to spiritual essence pills has the effect of remolding the body. Jade elixir was a spiritual liquid produced by heaven and earth, and it had the effect of remolding your body and changing your physique. Of course, Qing Jue had told her this because there was a jade elixir spring in the Heaven and Earth Bracelet that had been producing it for hundreds of millions of years. It was the milky-white fluid that exuded an exotic fragrance. As for additional effects, even Qing Jue didn't know.

Although she had concocted a lot of spiritual essence pills with jade elixir added, she had left most of them with her grandfather, so she didn't know exactly what had changed with the new spiritual essence pills. However, she knew that the effect was definitely better than the original.

"I-is this me?" After washing, Feng Moran looked in disbelief at his smooth and supple skin.

"Hey, why are you in a daze there?" Darling, who came to look for him, yelled impatiently.

"I…"

"Isn't it just slightly fairer skin and a better complexion? Why are you overreacting? If you follow my beloved master, things like these will happen all the time. Your ability to bear surprises is too bad. You have to work on it!" Darling taught him.

"…"

"Hurry up and go back to pack up. We're leaving in the afternoon," Darling urged.

"Okay," Feng Moran replied. Seems like I really have to work on my ability to bear surprises.

"Wuu… wuu… wuu… Big Sister, Fengfeng doesn't want you to go." The little silver wolf cried in Leng Ruoxue's arms, his beautiful fur wet with tears.

"Fengfeng, you have to be obedient, and don't be naughty, okay?" Leng Ruoxue coxed him. She was also reluctant to part with this little guy, but she could not bring him along. After all, he still had a family and an entire tribe.

Leng Ruoxue passed the little wolf back to the silver wolf king and handed him a bottle of green spirit pills.

"Thank you." The silver wolf king knew that this human was an alchemist, so he did not decline. After accepting the pills, he gave her a white fang.

Leng Ruoxue looked at the fang in puzzlement. It was roughly the size of an adult's palm, translucent and milky white, and slightly warm to the touch like jade.

"This is the token of us wolves. Having it with you, you will be regarded as the most honorable guest of the wolves in any forest," the silver wolf king explained.
