Chapter 1267 A Weird Symbol


    "Meixiu, it''s me. Are you free?" Yuan asked as he knocked on her door.


    Meixiu opened the door a few momentster and weed him inside.


    Once inside, Yuan continued, "If you have anything on your mind, I''m here to listen."


    Meixiu sat on the bed and sighed, "I have a lot on my mind, but it''s mostly just wondering about the end of the world. Though, I do have one question. Do you n on telling Yu Rou about the situation?"


    Yuan then said, "I thought about telling her, but I decided against it, as I don''t want her to worry needlessly. Do you think I should tell her?"


    Meixiu quickly shook her head, "No, I agree with your decision. Knowing Yu Rou, she''ll definitely freak out for a while."


    Yuan chuckled, "I will tell her after Earth is no longer in danger."


    The room fell silent for a moment before Meixiu asked, "So when will you return to Cultivation Online?"


    "I won''t immediately return, but I''ll probably shorten it a little."


    Meixiu disyed a surprised expression upon learning of his choice to remain despite their challenging circumstances.


    "You''re that confident?" She asked.


    "Well, not really, but there''s no need to rush either. Starting a week or twoter won''t make that much of a difference when we have a hundred years— even if there are only ten years."


    "In the meantime, I am going to be spending my time with you guys. Tonight probably isn''t a good time, so let me know whenever you want to—"


    Before Yuan could even finish his sentence, Meixiu grabbed his hand and pulled him onto the bed with her.


    "Even if the world were to end tomorrow, I would still want to spend the night with you," Meixiu muttered in a low voice before pressing her soft lips onto Yuan''s.


    Momentster, their clothes were scattered across the floor, where they would remain for the remainder of the night. Text ? owned by N?velDrama.Org.


    Meanwhile, in the Third Heaven.


    "So, how did you cross paths with Yuan?" Xi Meili inquired as they strolled through the city.


    "H-How?" Feng Yuxiang stammered, her mind instantly recollecting their initial meeting and causing her to break into a sweat.


    Opting to omit the unpleasant details of their initial meeting, Feng Yuxiang provided a truncated exnation, saying, "I used to own a shop in the Lower Heavens. The Young Master was a customer there. The sword he wields—the Empyrean Overlord—he purchased it from me."


    "Eh? How did you wind up traveling together?" Xi Meili expressed surprise upon learning of Feng Yuxiang''s background as a shop owner, struggling to fathom how she came to serve Yuan.


    "And what brings someone of your status to the Lower Heavens? Isn''t that realm intended for mortals?" Xi Meili inquired further.


    Feng Yuxiang let out a sigh as she exined, "I stirred up some problems in the Upper Heavens and was chased down there. My bloodline was even cursed, condemning me to live as a human."


    "What? Your bloodline was cursed? That''s the worst fate for a Divine Beast! Who would daremit such a heartless act?" Xi Meili reacted with shock.


    Feng Yuxiang shrugged, "It happened a long time ago, I don''t even remember his face— only that he had a weird symbol on his hand."


    "A weird symbol?" Xi Meili inquired further.


    "Yes. Anyways, even though my bloodline is cursed, as long as I am with the Young Master, the curse will be removed soon."


    "Huh? How?"


    "His blood. Every time I consume it, the curse weakens a little. It''ll only be a matter of time before I regain my full strength." Feng Yuxiang smiled.


    "Yuan''s blood…?" Xi Meili suddenly recalled her parents tasting Yuan''s blood and couldn''t help but wonder if there was something special about it.


    "What does his blood taste like?" she inquired, her eyes filled with fascination.


    "It''s hard to describe the taste, but it will taste better than anything you''ve ever tasted in your life."


    "Huh? That doesn''t make any sense."


    "You won''t understand it until you taste it. It''s also super addicting. Once you taste it, you''ll not be able to enjoy other things as much."


    "That… doesn''t sound very good…" Xi Meili raised her eyebrows.


    "It doesn''t— until you taste his blood."


    "Is that so— Hold on. I want to eat that." Xi Meili suddenly halted their conversation to approach a food stall.


    "I''ll take some of this." Xi Meili pointed at the meat skewers being sold.


    "That would be five copper coins."


    "Here." Xi Meili handed a spirit stone to the man behind the stall, who nearly fell back from shock.


    "I-I don''t have enough change…" The man said in a nervous voice.


    "I don''t need it." Xi Meili ced the spirit stone on the counter and grabbed the meat skewer before walking back to Feng Yuxiang, who was shaking her head, "What a waste of money."


    "Mmm… the skewers here taste so different even though they''re cooked from the same meat, and this is the 11th stall today. How wonderful."


    A few momentster, they came to another halt, but not because Xi Meili noticed another skewer stall.


    "What do you want?" Feng Yuxiang asked the tall young man who suddenly stopped in front of them, blocking their path.


    "Just a little of yourdies'' time. How would you like to eat lunch together at the best restaurant in this city? It''ll be my treat, of course." The young man said as he looked at Xi Meili and her half-eaten skewer.


    "Are we being hit on right now?" Xi Meili looked at Feng Yuxiang with raised eyebrows, as she had never encountered such a situation before, having only heard about it.


    Feng Yuxiang nodded, "Yes, we are."


    She then responded to the man, "I am not interested in humans, so you may scram."


    Nevertheless, the young man remained still and grinned, saying, "I had a feeling you weren''t human, hence why I approached you! Don''t worry, I''m not human either!"
