SHOCKING VENOMOUS CONSORT: FRIVOLOUS MISS
16. A Very Beautiful Man

...🥙🥙🥙...

"Deal!" Ling Chuxi's answer was as straightforward as Ling Yichen's. He then quickly attacked the roasted chicken he had just placed in front of him.

Poor Aunt Wang was completely confused. What the hell just happened here? He felt that his brain was unable to calculate this turn of events.

"I'm going to go." Ling Yichen got up from her seat and left when a thought suddenly flashed through her mind. "Do you want me to help you calm those two people down?"

Ling Chuxi immediately knew which two people Ling Yichen meant. He must have seen what happened before. However, this mention only made Aunt Wang even more confused.

“Ah, no need. I will charge back what is my own debt,” Ling Chuxi said with a wave of her hand to emphasize that she did not need Ling Yichen's intervention.

"REALLY. You are able to solve such problems yourself,” Ling Yichen admitted with a nod. "Then I'll go now."

"I won't send you away, but please take your time." Ling Chuxi was engrossed in eating roasted chicken. Just as Ling Yichen was about to step out of the door, Ling Chuxi called out to him, “Other times you visit, bring more of this. Tastes pretty good.”

Right now, Ling Yichen had almost lost her footing. Before he left, he turned his head to look at Ling Chuxi, who was still eating voraciously. Ling Yichen shook her head wordlessly and left.

Returning to the dining room, Aunt Wang looked curiously at the humans and foxes who shared space with her. He had yet to recover his wits from the events that had just happened. Aunt Wang really wanted to ask Miss why the newcomer to the Ling clan had asked for her help and agreed to the unfair and humiliating terms to cover the cost of food for three years just to secure it.

Whatisthis? Although Aunt Wang was eager to understand what had just happened, she could not bear to interrupt Ling Chuxi's joyous dinner. Aunt Wang's eyes drifted to Little White. The fox ate a mouthful after sip of his food elegantly. It was strange to see a fox displaying elegance of any kind, but that was how it was.

...🥙🥙🥙...

It was a cold night. Ling Chuxi sat on his bed cross-legged after one round letting his Thundercloud Battle Qi circulate. She instructed Aunt Wang to prepare hot water for her.

"Little White's. It's time for you to take a shower. Otherwise, you will stink, and I will not let you sleep next to me,” Ling Chuxi muttered firmly while dragging Little White into the tub with her. Little White struggled in Ling Chuxi's evil clutches for a bit before giving up and succumbing to good scrubbing.

After taking a bath, Ling Chuxi dried her hair and helped dry Little White's fur. As soon as he was ready to sleep, Ling Chuxi hugged Little White tightly and fell asleep.

The moon shone brightly outside the window, emitting its rays all over the land. But the moonlight disappeared all of a sudden, letting the pitch-black darkness down. In the depths of this darkness, Ling Chuxi rolled on her bed and fell into a deep sleep.

Many did not notice the unusual darkness that befell the ground as it only lasted for a moment. In fact, the intensity of the darkness would not make many people strange at all, they would have thought it was just a temporary effect of the clouds covering the moon. But it's weird. It's very strange.

In the silence of Ling Chuxi's bedroom, now stood a man watching her in the shadows. The slender figure of the man was silent in front of Ling Chuxi's bed with long silver hair draped loosely on her body. Her face was the kind of beauty that made her heart flutter and shortness of breath. So beautiful was this man that heaven and earth almost paled in comparison. The gentle features of the man were simply amazing. Perfectly curved eyebrows, a smooth bridge of the nose, eyes as clear as the winter moon, and smooth but sensual lips.

Ling Chuxi fell asleep too fast to notice anything. He simply muttered and turned around to hug Little White who was sleeping beside him. Little White was not there.

When Ling Chuxi's arm caught nothing but the night air, she grumbled softly and extended her hand towards where Little White was supposed to be. Now, that's better. He felt Little White's soft and warm fur on his fingers this time. Ling Chuxi curled up to Little White and continued to sleep soundly.

Through its windows, the sight of moonlit land once again dominated the frame. While in his bedroom, the silver-haired and purple-eyed handsome man was long gone. There was no one in sight, other than the girl and the little fox holding each other as they slept until dawn broke.

...🥙🥙🥙...

After breakfast the next morning, Ling Chuxi pondered the sword she had brought back yesterday. His appearance shows there is nothing extraordinary about it. No one could say there was any curse on it. As soon as he thought about the matter, Ling Chuxi decided to take out his old sword and place it on the stone table. He circulated the Thundercloud Battle Qi within him, raising a new sword above his head, lowering it with a slashing motion towards the old sword.

Clangs! The old sword broke in two, but the new sword in Ling Chuxi's hand was as good a condition as before.

"Hm. Not bad." Ling Chuxi smiled slightly and looked at the new sword with expectant eyes. Seeing that it was able to withstand the dominant energy of Thundercloud Battle Qi and cut through the iron as if it was just mud, this sword was quite good.

"I will name this sword something extraordinary!" Ling Chuxi held her sword and thought about what she should call before announcing excitedly, “I will call you the Dominating Blade. How about that?"

Little White sat examining Ling Chuxi's test sword from a short distance away. After hearing Ling Chuxi's proposed name for her sword, Little White turned to look at her in judgment. 'Should You Dominate?! What is dominating about that?! It's just a sword, okay! How is this name so amazing?'

“Ugh, forget it. Sounds too rude. I will only use Luo Chen Sword.” Even Ling Chuxi himself felt the name he proposed did not match and therefore replaced it with another name that was less bombastic. This fine sword was hidden in the dust before he found it. A name like Luo Chen's Sword was a perfect match for him. How strange it was when his new name came out from Ling Chuxi's lips, the sword shook in his hand. Once the vibration is smooth, it will not be detected without careful attention. Ling Chuxi was astonished by this.

As he was about to practice his swordplay, he heard footsteps approaching from across the courtyard. His sense of sight, sound, and smell was honed ever since he entered the beginner stage of Battle Qi Level 7. It was easy for him to recognize the footsteps as belonging to the Second Elder.

Ling Chuxi quickly hid the sword and turned towards the entrance of the courtyard just in time to see the Second Elder walking past. This was the first time the Second Elder had seen it clearly since his skin had recovered. However, instead of smiling at him as usual, he looked worried.

“Chuxi small. What happened to your face?” asked the Second Elder in surprise. His voice is a little shaky.

"My face?" Ling Chuxi had long forgotten the days when she had to walk around with wounds and disgusting spots on her face. Currently, her facial skin was smooth, bright and supple. Complete difference from how it used to be. He did not wear a wide-brimmed hat to hide his face from curious eyes while he was at home. Ling Chuxi decided to test the water. "Oh! My face has fully recovered. I don't know how, but my skin is healed now. I look pretty good, don't I, Second Elder?”

Ling Chuxi had always felt that the Second Elder was not entirely honest. With the medical skills he had, it was impossible for him not to know that he was poisoned.

"Is that so? That, great Little Chuxi. You look so pretty like this. I can barely recognize you.” The Second Elder smiled warmly and beckoned Ling Chuxi closer. “Let's go, Little Chuxi. Come and see what I brought you this time.”

Ling Chuxi beamed as she followed him. If he was honest, he felt Second Elder forced his smile today, although he could not tell the reason. He did not seem too happy with his skin recovering from that terrible poisoning attack. Wh why?
