According to Su Ruoxi, she was not a thief. It was just that she mastered some skills to steal and did not like people coming close to her. Because of that, Su Su never managed to steal anything from Su Ruoxi…
Initially, Su Su got more and more determined as she failed. She thought very hard about how to steal something from Su Ruoxi. Even a strand of hair would be good…
However, as time passed, her enthusiasm was completely destroyed by Su Ruoxi. In the end, Su Su could only comfort herself, saying, "Ruoxi is my Master. I cannot steal my Master's things! That's it. It is not my problem!"
However, every time Su Su and Su Ruoxi met, she would still try to steal something of Su Ruoxi's. What if Su Ruoxi was careless one day and did not discover her?
Unfortunately, reality was harsh. This was one of her numerous tries, but she was still discovered by them…
This came to Su Su as another blow, but it was nothing much as she had already gotten used to it…
"Aunty Su, let's go now!" Baby Su said as her eyes lit up.
"Argh? Now? That's alright too. Aunty Su shall bring you there, and you can choose what you like!" After a short pause, Su Su said generously as if the national vault was her house.
"Mother, can I go with Aunty Su?" Baby Su turned around to ask Su Ruoxi, who had prepared the dishes.
"Okay. You can go after you finish your food!" Su Ruoxi said calmly.
The fact that Baby Su was really interested to take a trip to the national vault made her speechless. There was once when she returned and mentioned that Su Su stole many treasures. Baby Su was only curious for a while. However, after Master Ling Fengchen heard about it, he also mentioned. He was poor when he just got famous, but he needed to buy medicinal herbs. So, he would go frequently to the Kingdom of the Heavenly Phoenix's national vault to take money…
Baby Su's eyes lit up after hearing about it, and to her, the national vault was a place to take money from. She always said that the first thing she wanted to do after getting out was to go to the national vault to get money! If not, she would seem to be too weak…
Su Ruoxi really wanted to tell Baby Su that, "Mother is very rich. We don't have to steal!"
Obviously, Baby Su was not interested in that…
After they ate, Su Su brought Baby Su out of the inn and headed toward the palace…
Su Ruoxi was assured of Su Su's capabilities. Furthermore, even if Su Su got into trouble, Baby Su was not an easy target, either. Even though she was only the peak level of Blue Mystique, Baby Su's poisoning skills were almost invincible…
Possibly because she was an assassin in the previous life, she did not educate Baby Su to be some foolish and kind child…
As long as she was sure that Baby Su could understand, she would make use of examples to analyze the pros and cons for Baby Su. It was to make sure that Baby Su would not be bullied by others. The most she talked about was human nature…
No matter if it was in the previous world or this world, no matter what identity! The most important thing was that not everyone in this world was kind which also meant that not everyone was evil…
And Baby Su's personality was also extremely similar to hers, particularly about cleanliness and not liking having close contact with others. Except for herself and her two Masters, Baby Su had not interacted with other people before. She could tell that Baby Su was unwilling when Su Su was kissing her just now.
If it was someone else, that person would have long been slapped to death by Baby Su…
Su Ruoxi taught both medical skills and poisoning skills to Baby Su. But, Baby Su was more skilled at poisoning skills than medical skills!
Baby Su liked to follow Master Ling and learn about poisoning skills; it caused Master Xia to be jealous several times…
Hence, Su Ruoxi was not worried that Su Su and Baby Su would get into trouble. Hopefully, no one would provoke them…
After Su Ruoxi cleaned up, she entered the realm…
After the realm leveled up, it changed significantly! Whatever she planted in the plot of land would be ready for harvesting in a day. The speed of growth was shocking…
According to Little White, when the Black and White Divine Ring was in its best state, one day outside would be equivalent to a hundred years inside! It was a wonderful cheating device!
Su Ruoxi planted all the medicinal herbs she previously kept in the realm, along with the spices she liked. With Little White's help, she did not even need to take care of it herself…
After eating the dishes she cooked, Little White was more concerned about the spices than her. In a few days, a lot of spices had already been harvested and kept in the small hut inside…
"Master, you are here! Look, I harvested a lot of Cumin today!" Little White jumped into Su Ruox's embrace and said proudly.
"Yes, Little White you are the best! Little White, how is your body now?" Su Ruoxi hugged it, asking worriedly.
If it was not for Little White, she might not have been able to cultivate! To her, Little White was more than an artifact spirit. Little White was an important family member…
"Master, I'm alright! Even though I did not recover to my original state, I believe in Master's capability! Look, all I did was to sleep, and when I woke up, the realm had leveled up! I believe that it will not take long for the realm to become as powerful as in the past! I will also turn back into Hei Yao then!" Little White said excitedly.
Su Ruoxi's lips twitched upon hearing it and could only laugh. She did not want to affect Little White's mood. Even though she did not know how to level up the realm, she knew that it would not be easy to do so…
Initially, she thought that the realm would level up as her capability leveled up. However, there was no reaction from the realm after she leveled up a few times…
Thinking of the two coffins left behind by her two Masters, Su Ruoxi shivered. Could it be that the realm was dependent on refining coffins to level up…
"Master, No! The realm's level is dependent on your capability. However, it will take longer to level up! The realm would not level up every time you level up!" Little White sensed Su Ruoxi's thoughts and explained.
"I see, okay. I will work hard! How is Bai Tian?" Su Ruoxi asked.
"Bai Tian is sleeping. Don't worry Master. Sleeping is also a way to cultivate for beasts. I believe that when it wakes up again, it will be different! However, Master, what beast is Bai Tian exactly? Why can I not tell?" Speaking of Bai Tian, Little White asked curiously.
"I don't know, either. Bai Ling disappeared without getting to say it! Nevermind, no matter what beast it is, it is our new member. I believe that we will know what beast it is when it grows up!" Su Ruoxi said with a smile.
"Yes, that's true! Oh! Master, the doors of the two Bamboo houses cannot be opened!" Little White said.
Su Ruoxi carried Little White to the front of the bamboo house. These houses had appeared after the realm had leveled up. There was one house that was used to store many refined elixirs and weapons. However, they came with many restrictions, and Su Ruoxi was unable to utilize them…
There was another house which had many books. There were books on refining elixirs, refining weapons, and training of beasts. Some were about the history of the mainlands. Naturally, these were about the history of the other mainlands and not the history of the Land of the Dancing Phoenix.
There were people living in the remaining houses. Su Ruoxi had examined them one by one before. Since she did not find anything special, she did not continue looking…
"I was referring to these two houses. I am not sure when, but they seem to have appeared out of the blue? I wanted to enter to take a look, but I was not able to open their doors after trying for a long time. Since you are here, why don't you try to enter?" Little White said as he lay comfortably in Su Ruoxi's arms.
"Can't be opened? Let me try then…" Su Ruoxi walked to one door and pushed it gently.
The door creaked open…
Su Ruoxi lowered her head to look at Little White who was lying in her arms. "Little White, this is the door that can't be opened?"
"It really couldn't be opened before! Master, why were you able to open it?" Little White asked in bewilderment. It couldn't believe its eyes and leaped out from Su Ruoxi's arms. It was going into the bamboo house to take a look and find out why it wasn't able to open the door before…
Little White's tiny body was just about to float through the door when it rebounded with a thump…
Little White was in a daze and seeing stars. Luckily, Su Ruoxi had managed to catch it before its tiny body fell onto the ground…
"What the hell? What just happened? Did it just block me, the artifact spirit?" Little White was enraged.
It was an artifact spirit, and yet, there was something within its territory that was out of its control? What an embarrassment this was to all artifact spirits…
"It's fine. You wait here while I take a look!" Su Ruoxi said as she caressed Little White gently. She placed Little White aside and entered…
She had only just stepped in when the door shut automatically behind her. Su Ruoxi turned her head. She was not bothered as she was in her own realm and there should not be any danger…
The interior furnishing of this bamboo house was no different from the rest. There was a plain wooden bed, a study table, a simple wardrobe, a bookshelf, and a chair…
Su Ruoxi scrutinized the room carefully. There was nothing special or different. She wondered why Little White was not able to enter this bamboo house?
Moreover, she had just witnessed Little White rebounding from the entrance earlier. It was likely that there was an invisible boundary at the door. However, she had not sensed anything when she entered just now…
Exactly what was hidden here? Su Ruoxi could not figure it out in such a short time…
Su Ruoxi circled the house once more but still did not discover anything. Just as she turned to leave, she spied an open book on the study table out of the corner of her eye…
Her curiosity was piqued, and Su Ruoxi walked over to take a look at the book. It was an ordinary medical book that was filled with basic knowledge about medicinal herbs and simple medical skills…
Su Ruoxi flipped through a few pages of the book but found nothing special. She was just about to place the book back when…
"Sss!"
Su Ruoxi was in the midst of putting down the book when suddenly, a brilliant ray of light flashed across it. Su Ruoxi felt a sharp pain in her fingertip and blood started flowing from her finger onto the book…
Then, she found herself being surrounded by a white ray of light. Immediately after that, some messages started to invade her mind. A transparent person, or to be more precise, a soul appeared in front of her…
It seemed that the soul inside the book had forcibly bound a contract with her just now…
Su Ruoxi took a look at the soul in front of her. She squinted her eyes and asked, "Tell me, why were you hiding here?"
Since this person was able to hide in a book within her realm, this person must be somehow related to the Black and White Divine Ring. Furthermore, it was not easy to nullify a contract!
She didn't know the reason why this person had bound her to a contract. For some people, they might be elated to gain another contracted party…
However, this was not the case for Su Ruoxi! She had always felt that she should not trouble others for something she could manage on her own. Perhaps this had something to do with her being a lone assassin in her past life. She was used to keeping things to herself! It felt strange to carry the burdens of others on her shoulders…
She was willing to go all out to protect those she loved! As for those whom she did not care about, she would not bat an eye even if they were to fall dead in front of her. Also, she was annoyed that this person had associated himself with her without telling her the reason or asking for her permission…
She hated the feeling of being coerced. It did not matter whether the intention of the other party was good or bad…
Having heard Su Ruoxi's words, the other party simply stood there in silence, gazing at her. The expression on the other party's face was a look of shock, surprise, excitement, and disbelief…
Su Ruoxi did not interrupt the other party's thoughts. She frowned and took out a bottle of medicine to apply to her fingertip. The wound on her finger healed almost instantly without leaving a scar. It was as though the blood flowing earlier had not come from her finger. One could tell how miraculous this medicine was…
"Master, is that really you? My master, I've finally found you… Master, I've missed you…"
After some time, the white soul finally spoke. He had a nice voice, but he was wailing and howling as he spoke.
Su Ruoxi was astounded by his wailing. "Stop, stop crying! Explain yourself!"
The rascal was obviously a man, and all this howling and crying got on her nerves…
"Sob… Master, why are you so furious with me? You didn't talk to me in this manner before!" He did not seem to understand her words and continued wailing.
"You're asking for it if you continue crying!" Su Ruoxi said crossly.
"Master, have… have you forgotten about me?" he asked as he blinked at Su Ruoxi.
"Should I know you?" Su Ruoxi asked in bewilderment.
"Master, I am so upset that you no longer recognize me!" He whimpered and broke into wild shrieks and howls.
Su Ruoxi could no longer tolerate his demonic howling. She decided to keep him inside the contract realm, but no matter how she tried, she was not successful…
Su Ruoxi frowned and looked at him. She was puzzled by this situation! Every contracted beast or contracted party was supposed to come with their own contract realm. Why was she unsuccessful then? It seemed that she had entered into a contract with him, and yet, he did not have his own contract realm. What in the world was happening?
"Master, I am supposed to stay by your side. I don't have a contract realm. I used to stay in your realm, in this house! Master, you were the one who selected this house for me!" The soul seemed to be able to tell what Su Ruoxi was thinking.
