“How could I do that? I never go against my own words. Since I’ve already agreed to the bet, I’ll not be a sore loser.”
Zhang Yunxi blushed when Shen Tian said that she could keep the jade pendants. She had been an incredibly independent and strong woman from a young age and had always been unwilling to be subservient to others.
It was her fault this time to have doubted Shen Tian and made a bet with Shopkeeper Song. Thus, she accepted her loss, and the pendants belonged to Shen Tian.
She just wanted to use something to trade for these jade pendants.
She took a deep breath and stared at Shen Tian. “Mr. Shen, please do not disgrace me. According to the bet we had, these jade pendants belong to you now. I just hope that Mr. Shen could be kind enough to trade them with me. I’m willing to offer anything. Just state your price!”
Her request rendered Shen Tian speechless.
Is this little girl crazy? I already said I don’t need any repayment, and you can have the pendants. Why must you take something to exchange for them? What a waste of time!
Shen Tian looked out of the window. The clouds in the sky were gone.
The strange phenomenon in the Myriad Spirit Garden would definitely attract strong people, so he had to get rid of these pendants as soon as possible.
He looked at Zhang Yunxi and thought for a moment.
“Are you sure you are okay with anything?”
Dammit! Seriously now, is he really going to ask me to marry him? But these pendants are really important. There is no other way...
Zhang Yunxi sighed and replied, “Yes!”
Shen Tian smiled and said, “Then, I’ll take... your mask.”
The mask Zhang Yunxi was wearing was very expensive-looking, and it must be a rare item, too.
Shen Tian was running out of time and needed to get out of here fast.
Shen Tian’s offer stunned Zhang Yunxi. She took a deep breath and said, “Are you sure, Mr. Shen?”
Shen Tian nodded.
Zhang Yunxi bushed under her Phoenix Feather Mask.
I’ve wronged Mr. Shen again. He’s not the filthy person I thought. Why does he want my mask? Does he want to know what I look like? Or does he want to keep the mask so that he can think of me any time he wants?
This Phoenix Feather Mask was very meaningful to Zhang Yunxi. It was a supreme-grade Spirit Artifact pa.s.sed down from her mentor, Essence Venerate Crimson Feather.
It could block all forms of detection and could control one’s own presence to others too.
Zhang Yunxi had never revealed her face after receiving the mask. Even in the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground, very few people knew how Zhang Yunxi looked.
Now, Shen Tian was using the Divine Firmament Drager Pendant to exchange for her mask.
Zhang Yunxi did not understand why Shen Tian was willing to make such an unfair trade.
Is it just to look at my face for once? Has he fallen in love with me in just this short duration?
Zhang Yunxi blushed at the thought of it.
She took a deep breath and said, “Sure, no problem!”
Then, her mighty aura erupted and concealed the two of them in tiger-shaped lightning.
Her aura blocked everyone else from watching and listening to them, so Zhang Yunxi slowly took off her mask.
Her skin was like snow, white and fair, and her eyes were like the stars in the sky. Unlike Little Spirit Fairy’s liveliness, Li Lian’er’s cuteness, or Jiu’er’s pithiness, Zhang Yunxi was more toward the cooler end. She had the look of an independent woman.
Although she looked very attractive, n.o.body would ever make dirty thoughts about her. She was a female fighter that was no weaker than any other male.
Shen Tian recalled a few ancient heroines that shared her vibes—Mulan, who had partic.i.p.ated in the war on her father’s behalf, and Mu Guiying, who was the army commander in her era.
Zhang Yunxi interrupted Shen Tian’s thoughts.
“I know what you mean by this. But please excuse me as I really have something important to do now. I cannot stay with you at this moment. To be honest, this Divine Firmament Drager Pendant is my Divine Firmament Sacred Ground’ heritage treasure. Now that everyone witnessed the strange phenomena in the sky, I need to bring the jade pendants back to the sacred ground.
“If I’m able to bring these pendants back and complete my mission, I’ll come back for you. I’ll accept your request then. However, if I’m short-lived and do not make it to the sacred ground, please do Yunxi a favor.”
Shen Tian was confused about what Zhang Yunxi was saying.
What do you mean, you know what I mean? I’m just asking for a mask. What’s all the explanation for?
Shen Tian did not really bother much with Zhang Yunxi’s request. Indeed, if Shen Tian took the pendants, something might really happen to him. But since this fortuitous opportunity belonged to Zhang Yunxi in the first place, there was no way anything wrong was going to happen to her. Thus, Shen Tian was doing her a favor with no cost at all.
Shen Tian said firmly, “Fairy Zhang, go on. I’ll do it!”
Zhang Yunxi smiled and said, “Are you not going to listen to what the thing I need help with is?”
Shen Tian replied without hesitation, “I’m fated with you, Fairy Zhang. I’ll do whatever I can.”
Naturally, Shen Tian’s words touched Zhang Yunxi.
She took a deep breath and pierced her finger. Her blood dripped on the Divine Firmament Drager Pendant and was absorbed. Then, Zhang Yunxi made several hand seals and cast spells into the pendants.
The Divine Firmament Drager Pendant lit up again, and three golden rays of light flew toward Shen Tian’s head and disappeared.
Shen Tian felt that new information was flooding his mind. It was three mysterious heritage arts—Five Heavenly Lightning Cultivation Technique, Lightning Emperor Body Tempering Art, and the long-lost prestigious heritage art, Decalamity!
After Zhang Yunxi finished transmitting them, her complexion looked pale.
She smiled and said, “I’ve copied and transmitted all three heritage arts in this Divine Firmament Drager Pendant to you.
“If something happens to me, and I cannot bring the Divine Firmament Drager Pendant back to the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground, please visit the sacred ground personally and help me pa.s.s down these heritage arts.
“Yunxi will repay your kindness in my next life!”
The lightning tiger aura shattered after saying the last bit, and her Divinity formed an illusionary mask to cover up her face again.
Zhang Yunxi held the Divine Firmament Drager Pendant and flew off. She had to travel thousands of miles and pa.s.s the pendants to the current Divine Firmament Sacred Leader. Her duty would only end when she completed this task.
Shen Tian felt the scenario was very familiar.
I should worry more about myself instead of her!
After obtaining the pendants, Zhang Yunxi’s halo was so bright that it resembled a mini sun.
Who would dare to rob her with her outflowing providence? She could kill them easily!
Shen Tian smiled and stored the Phoenix Feather Mask. He then took out his mirror and looked at his reflection.
Shen Tian was so touched and thrilled that he screamed, “Green! Finally, I’m green!”
