Chapter 119: Agarwood Like Crumbs 1
Feng Xi felt the world spin before she arrived in a new world. She blinked, adjusting to the discomfort of this unfamiliar environment, and then opened her eyes. All she saw was a vast expanse of yellow sand. There was no end in sight, only endless desolation and dead silence.
"This place is truly barren!" Feng Xi sighed, using her magic power to discover a presence of spiritual energy. In this world, she could use only three levels of spiritual energy; anything above that would repel her. This body was her original self, but even without spiritual energy, no one in this world could defeat her in her flesh alone. She thought about calling the system to receive the storyline for this world.
Suddenly, she heard a commotion in the distance. She looked in the direction of the sound and saw a group of demons chasing a frail man with snow-white hair. His face was as pale as paper, his body was thin, and he looked truly pitiful. He ran relentlessly, trying to escape the demons, but they were relentless, seemingly determined to keep him.
Feng Xi frowned, thinking that demons were still cruel no matter where they were, but she didn't believe they had to be utterly exterminated! Just as she was about to help save the man, a figure suddenly descended from the sky. It was a woman, dressed in white, like a fairy descending from the earth, breathtakingly beautiful. In her hand, she held a long sword, the blade gleaming with a cold light, a divine weapon at first glance.
The woman lightly swung her sword, and a sharp sword energy slashed towards the demons. The demons were struck by the sword energy and flew backwards, blood spurting from their mouths, obviously seriously injured. They looked at the woman in horror, not daring to take another step forward.
The woman glanced at the demon calmly, a hint of disdain in her eyes. She turned to look at the white-haired man and asked gently, "Are you okay?"
The man looked at the woman gratefully, tears welling in his eyes. He shook his head, indicating that he was fine. The woman nodded, then flew away with him.
Feng Xi watched the scene quietly, sighing inwardly. It was a clichéd plot: a beautiful woman saving a hero and then giving herself to him. She smiled, shook her head, and called the system: "Accept the plot..."
System: "This world is called Chenxiang Ruxue, and it tells the story of the love entanglement between the heroine Yan Dan and Ying Yuanjun. This Yan Dan is the incarnation of the twin lotus flowers, Siye Handan, left behind by the ancient descendants. She also has a sister, Zhixi. This Ying Yuan is the child of the man Xuan Ye you just saw and the female warrior Ran Qing. This world is a bit special. What you need, host, is to change Xuan Ye's ending of soul scattering and prevent this world from collapsing."
Hearing this, I couldn't help but frown. This is such a difficult task! Not only do I have to change Xuan Ye's fate, but I also have to ensure that the small world doesn't collapse.
Feng Xi frowned and said in confusion, "Why does this world feel weird..." She was keenly aware that the atmosphere around her was a little unusual, but she couldn't determine the specific reason.
The system responded gravely, "You are not mistaken. Someone in this world has stolen the luck. Originally, the luck should have belonged to Xuan Ye, but due to the constant use of the Breath-Transforming Wheel, the luck gradually shifted to the child, Ying Yuan. This person is using Ying Yuan as a conductor to drain his luck. If it weren't for Yan Dan and Zhi Xi's sacrifice, this world would have collapsed long ago."
Feng Xi widened her eyes and asked in disbelief, "Who is this person?" She was very curious about the mastermind behind this.
The system slowly replied, "Jitu Xingjun Hengqin was originally in love with Ranqing, but Ranqing's heart was with Xuanye. Jealous, Hengqin decided to use a forbidden technique to steal someone else's luck. Initially, he was unable to steal Xuanye's luck, but as Ranqing committed suicide time and again, Xuanye's luck continued to be consumed to use the Wheel of Breath Transformation, and eventually the luck fell to Yingyuan."
Feng Xi: "I understand your trembling. Isn't it enough to change Xuan Ye's use of the Breath-Turning Wheel? Isn't it enough to make him stop loving Ran Qing..." Feng Xi had a plan in mind. Since she wanted to change Xuan Ye's fate, she would start by making him fall in love with Ran Qing. She decided to get close to Xuan Ye first, understand his past and personality, and then find a way to make him let go of his feelings for Ran Qing.
A few days later, Feng Xi arrived in the Immortal Realm. As the Emperor of Heaven, he sensed Feng Xi's arrival and hurried to her presence. Seeing Feng Xi surrounded by spiritual energy, and her cultivation surpassed his own, he hurriedly asked, "I wonder what brings you here, Lord God?"
Feng Xi: "A few days ago, the Emperor's sister Ran Qing saved my fiancé, so I came to thank her and pick him up..."
The Emperor of Heaven: "Oh, so the man my sister rescued is a man of the Supreme God. I'll take you there right away..." The Emperor of Heaven wiped the sweat from his forehead. He had heard that his sister had recently taken a liking to this newly rescued man, flirting with him all day long. That man was always teasing. He had previously suspected he was a spy sent by the Shura Clan, but now it seems he's not. Otherwise, the Supreme God wouldn't have taken a fancy to him...
Feng Xi and the others arrived at Ran Qing's residence and saw Xuan Ye learning archery with Ran Qing. Feng Xi smiled and said, "It seems that this is the new way you've learned to pick up girls, Ye. Even the dignified Ye has this side of him..." Ran Qing saw the person coming and said, "Brother, who is this..."
Emperor of Heaven: “This deity is here to look for her fiancé…” Ran Qing looked at Xuan Ye in disbelief after hearing this.
Xuan Ye: "Who are you? I don't know you..."
Feng Xi smiled and said, "You really don't want to go with me. You want me to tell you about your..." Xuan Ye felt that if he didn't do what the woman in front of him said, she would definitely reveal her identity as an Asura. So he apologized to Ran Qing, "I'm sorry! I need to go back. She is not my fiancée. I was forced..." Ran Qing saw the man looking at her with grievance, and saw Feng Xi's strength. For a moment, she thought that Feng Xi forced the man to escape and encounter the Asura. So he said, "Your Majesty, a forced melon is not sweet. Ye doesn't want it..."
Feng Xi didn't want to talk to the love-brained man, so she raised her hand and grabbed Xuan Ye. Xuan Ye was about to struggle, but Feng Xi whispered in his ear, "If you don't want Ran Qing to know the truth, don't move. Come with me..." Then she gave the ice lotus that she had prepared in advance to Ran Qing, "This ice lotus is for you, and your cultivation will be improved. You have repaid Ye for saving your life." Then she said something to the Emperor of Heaven and left.
After leaving the fairyland, Xuan Ye broke free from Feng Xi's restraints, a hint of doubt and vigilance flashed in his eyes, and he asked: "Who are you? Why are you taking me away?"
Feng Xi looked at Xuan Ye's expression, her lips curling up slightly, revealing a smile that was three parts devilish charm and seven parts mockery. She couldn't help but sigh in her heart: He is indeed the man who can bewitch Ran Qing so completely! Such a peerless beauty is truly rare in life. The Li Lianhua she met at the Lotus Tower back then wasn't even half as good as him. Seeing him now, she was truly delighted.
Feng Xi chuckled and said, "The dignified Shura King actually likes this kind of style. Why don't I accept you as my wife..." As she said that, she flashed into Xuan Ye's arms and kissed him without hesitation.
Xuan Ye was stunned, having never expected Feng Xi to be so bold. Having spent considerable time in the Celestial Realm, he knew full well that its inhabitants held the Shuras in hatred and fear, either clamoring for their destruction or shunning them. And now, the woman before him actually kissed him, taking him by surprise. Even Ran Qing, if he knew he was from the Shuras, would probably draw his sword immediately.
