6 Chapter 6 - Xing the Fool

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

"To be exact, 1,001 years! Xing really did what he said he would do! Master, you've really returned! When you were in the middle of the tribulation, your soul was shattered and dispersed. I did all I could and tried my best, but I only managed to keep a trace of your soul. Fortunately, I ran into Xing afterwards, and he took me with him to travel to various realms to search for your soul fragments."

Qi Bao burped after crying and stared at Lin Rui. 

"Huh? Master, why are you sitting on the ground?"

'All because of you!' 

Lin Rui stood up quietly, holding onto Qi Bao's round little hands with ripples in her heart. 

"But when my soul was shattered and dispersed, Xing's cultivation level was still very low. How was he able to shuttle to various realms and spaces?" 

"Master, after you failed to transcend the tribulation, your soul had been asleep, and we don't know what happened afterwards. During those years, Xing searched for the fragments of your soul while putting in the effort to cultivate. Later, he also became the Xingyun Immortal of the Canglan Immortal Sect. He cultivated especially hard. I've never seen a person cultivating so hard before. It's like he had gone mad."

Recalling the days where he used to follow Xing around, Qi Bao felt his heart palpitate in fear, and he got very emotional. 

If it were not for the thought of reviving Lin Rui, Xing would have gone berserk a long time ago. 

Lin Rui felt a pain in her heart.

When her soul was scattered, she wondered if someone would save her.

However, she never thought that Xing would be the one to save her! 

Xing was the poor beggar whom she picked up back then! 

'I was gone for more than a thousand years...'

'How did Xing pull through it all?'

Lin Rui's heart was in turmoil, and she frantically looked around. "Qi Bao, where is Xing now?"

Qi Bao fell silent. 

He was tiny and looked rather delicate and adorable. 

However, Qi Bao's eyes were filled with sorrow after hearing Lin Rui's words.

He whispered, "I don't know where Xing is now... When Xing found the last piece of your soul fragment, it was split in two. However, at that time, Xing had lost all his powers, and in the end, he had no choice but to first place one half of the soul fragment into my space. He then instructed me to wait for that half of the soul fragment to reincarnate. Afterwards, I fell asleep, and I didn't know where he went..."

Lin Rui stood still with reddened eyes, clenching her fists tightly. 

'Xing that fool...' 

Ever since he signed the servant contract with Lin Rui, he had never seen her shed a tear before. 

Lin Rui now had a hairstyle that seemed weird to him and was extremely feeble, as if she would be blown away by a gust of wind. Her eyes were red too. 

If she weren't biting her lips tightly, her tears would have probably rolled down her cheeks. 

Qi Bao felt terrible too. 

He did not want to see Lin Rui like this.

Qi Bao tugged at Lin Rui's striped patient's gown and said softly in a tender, childlike voice, "Master, cheer up. Fortunately, you've awakened now. Let's go find Xing together then."

"Yes, I will definitely find him!"

Lin Rui took a deep breath and suppressed the immense sorrow in her heart.

The most important thing for her now was to see the cultivation talent of the body she was currently in.

She had to cultivate all over again before she could travel through the dimensions and realms to find Xing! 

However, Lin Rui's delicate face instantly turned sullen after checking her physical condition with Qi Bao's help. 

Her body was actually... a useless body with five types of Spiritual Roots. 

She was initially a cultivation prodigy, but after a thousand years of being comatose, she became a useless cultivator?
