Chapter 53: Chapter 50: A Wave of Fatness, Miao Miao Transforms

In the alley, Xue Jing sat on the ground, watching a cluster of Dark Flame burning in his palm.

“Shadow Flame…”

Curiously, he let the cluster of Dark Flame jump back and forth between his hands.

It was very smooth to control, like an extension of his own limbs, without any hindrance.

After thinking for a while, Xue Jing casually picked up a piece of brick from the ground and controlled the Shadow Flame to attach it to the brick.

“Boom!”

The silicon-based material, which was supposed to be difficult to burn, ignited like wood.

The brick gradually melted in the Dark Flame and turned into ashes after dozens of seconds, dissipating into the air.

“It’s completely different from ordinary flames.”

“Or rather, its essence is not a flame, it just appears in the form of black fire.”

Xue Jing mused.

He used the Shadow Flame to ignite another brick, this time only burning it for a while before dispersing it.

He touched the stone, finding it pit-marked on the surface from the burn but without any signs of carbonization, and it felt ice-cold.

“The temperature does not change, it’s not a high-temperature attack… it’s conceptual damage to the material, without any specific properties?”

Xue Jing experimented with the Shadow Flame in the alley for a while, gaining a preliminary understanding of the Divine Skill “Shadow Flame.”

“The larger the area of surrounding shadows, the more Shadow Flame I can convert, and the smaller the consumption…”

“The damage it causes is unrelated to physical properties… it’s only related to intensity… this person’s skin is very tough, it takes a long time to burn through.”

Watching a cluster of Shadow Flame burn for a long time before finally burning a small hole in the man’s arm, Xue Jing nodded.

On the panel, the golden light of the words “Shadow Flame” was dim, and it could no longer be used, not knowing how the cooldown was calculated.

Xue Jing stood up, stretching lazily.

“Huge gain~”

He looked at the panel and sighed.

[You have experienced a fight where you overcame stronger opponents, fighting experience points +452]

[You have experienced a fight where you overcame stronger opponents, fighting experience points +633]

[You have experienced a fight where you overcame stronger opponents, fitness experience points +422]

[You have experienced a fight where you overcame stronger opponents, fitness experience points +558]

…

Among the string of prompts, his skill experience points skyrocketed.

[Fitness increased to Lv6 (28/3000)]

[Health Cultivation increased to Lv4 (25/1200)]

[Aiming increased to Lv4 (102/1200)]

[Fight increased to Lv4 (805/1200)]

[Channeling Energy increased to Lv5 (127/2000)]

What’s called a hefty gain.

This is what the fuck is called a hefty gain!

Xue Jing’s body crackled, and he clenched his fists, feeling that he was nearly twice as strong as before.

More importantly, he had activated a purely offensive Divine Skill—Shadow Flame!

This greatly enhanced his lethality.

“It’s true that it’s good to fight more often.”

Immersed in the satisfaction of growth for a while, Xue Jing then remembered that there were a lot of things he had not dealt with.

First, he took a photo of the man’s body and sent it to Wu Youqing, detailing what had happened.

After all, having killed a person, Xue Jing felt somewhat out of his depth and needed to find a backer to settle things.

Compared to the Hidden Dragon Dojo, Wu Youqing, the lady boss with a semi-official background, seemed more reliable.

After all, it was the matter of retrieving the Divine Relic that had brought this about; Wu Youqing surely couldn’t ignore it.

Wu Youqing didn’t leave Xue Jing waiting long, quickly making a call, and Xue Jing immediately picked up, saying:

“Hello, BOSS, it’s exactly as I described in the WeChat message.”

From the phone, Wu Youqing’s gentle voice came through, “I understand, don’t worry, you have done nothing wrong, I will handle it.”

Hearing this, Xue Jing breathed a sigh of relief.

“Send me the location, don’t move the body, I will send someone to take care of it, just go home directly as if nothing happened.”

“Come find me at the library tomorrow.”

Xue Jing readily agreed.

After hanging up the phone, he sent Wu Youqing his detailed address, thought for a moment, dragged the man’s body into a pile of trash, and slightly covered it up so as not to be noticed by passersby.

Then he dusted himself off and left the alley.

…

By the time he got home, Miao Miao had already returned.

Opening the door to a cat greeting him was something that could generate a sense of happiness.

Having killed someone, Xue Jing was uneasy, but his heart eased quite a bit after seeing Miao Miao.

“Ha~~ you’re back.” Miao Miao yawned, rubbed its emerald eyes with a paw, and said lazily.

“Hm?”

Miao Miao approached Xue Jing, its cute nose twitching slightly.

“Blood scent… did you get into a fight again?”

Xue Jing picked it up, rubbed his face against its face, and smiled, “Something small happened, but I’ve taken care of it.”

“Come on, Teacher Wan, it’s been a long time since you had a bath…”

Upon hearing this, Ning Feng Wan started struggling in Xue Jing’s arms.

“…Cats don’t need a bath every day, hey, let go, go wash yourself!”

…

“Ah~”

In the bathtub, Xue Jing, holding Miao Miao, submerged into the slightly hot water, and both of them let out a comfortable sigh.

Miao Miao lay on Xue Jing’s chest, its tail swaying back and forth, brushing against his chin.

It turned its head slightly and inadvertently glanced at Xue Jing’s Divine Sword, which was difficult to look away from, then quickly averted its gaze.

In the silence, Miao Miao’s youthful feminine voice echoed in the bathroom.

“Young man, are you feeling down?”

Xue Jing, slightly taken aback, smiled and said,

“I am a bit, but seeing you makes me feel a lot better.”

Ning Feng Wan proudly raised her head and snorted, “Flattery does not work on this Sect Hierarch.”

Xue Jing glanced at the panel.

[Someone has developed favorability towards you, Charm Art Experience Points +21]

He chuckled, didn’t expose it, but simply pinched Miao Miao’s face.

“Hmm? Why are you wearing glasses in the bath? They’re all fogged up.”

Miao Miao glanced at the glasses on Xue Jing’s nose, which were all fogged up, and felt a bit awkward.

So it reached out a paw and flicked.

The glasses dropped.

“Hm?”

Completely off his guard, Xue Jing hadn’t expected this, and by the time he thought to put the glasses back on, it was too late.

[Someone has developed a lot of favorability towards you, Charm Art Experience Points +89]

The presence he had been suppressing all day erupted suddenly with the removal of the glasses; in that moment, Xue Jing was almost the epitome of a Succubus.

Miao Miao stared at him, completely dazed.

Then, the unexpected happened.

The tail ring on Miao Miao’s tail began to emit a platinum radiance, gradually brightening, then bursting into a blinding circle of light.

Xue Jing instinctively shielded his eyes.

Suddenly, he felt a heaviness in his chest.

The fuzzy sensation of Miao Miao was gone, replaced by a soft, slick touch…

Not exactly… within the soft and slick, there was still a bit of fuzziness.

He opened his eyes and looked.

He found himself looking into a pair of narrow, seductive eyes.
