A Little Girl Fell From the Sky

"Ahhh!!"

A scream filled with vital energy came from the sky. A petite figure passed through the ripples in the sky and plummeted quickly.

"The person who fell in this time is really energetic." Cui Heng laughed when he heard the voice.

Immediately after, he raised his hand gently and used his Dharmic powers to push the airflow, holding the figure descending from the sky in the air to prevent her from falling straight down.

This was not a Dharma spell, but a simple technique that he had come up with to use Dharmic powers.

For Foundation Establishment cultivators, Dharmic powers were no longer just "energy" stored in their bodies.

Instead, it had completely become a part of his body.

Therefore, although he did not know how to turn this part of his body into spells like fire, water, wind, and thunder, it was not a problem to develop some special usage methods.

With the support of Cui Heng's Dharmic powers, this new "visitor from outer space" slowly descended.

This was an extremely beautiful little girl who appeared to be around 13 or 14 years old. Her skin was fair and tender, and the lines on her face were gentle. Her facial features were also extremely exquisite, and she was like a doll carved from jade.

The clothes she was wearing were not ordinary either. She was wearing a dress made of moon-white satin with golden patterns embroidered on it. The workmanship was very exquisite. She wore a jade hair accessory inlaid with gold on her head and a warm jade pendant on her slender waist.

She could be said to be donned in silk and satin with gold, silver, and jade.

Just the price of this outfit alone was enough to last Hong Fugui for a lifetime.

This should be a rich young lady.

Oh, that's not right. She was too young to be called a lady. Cui Heng sized her up again.

For now, he could only call her Little Miss.

Cui Heng wanted to go over and greet her, but when he opened his mouth, he didn't know what to say. He thought to himself, "Such a young lady suddenly came to a strange place. Seeing a stranger like me, would she be afraid?"

However, right at this moment, the little girl had already skipped over, and her large eyes flickered as she looked at Cui Heng with extreme curiosity and said happily, "Big Brother, you're so awesome! Are you an Immortal?"

She did not seem to be afraid of strangers at all.

"I'm just…" Cui Heng wanted to explain just like when he met Hong Fugui previously.

"You must be an Immortal, right? Big Brother!" The little girl seemed to have made up her mind about this. She was so excited that her cheeks turned red, and her eyes were filled with admiration. Before Cui Heng could finish explaining, she asked, "Can I call you Big Brother Immortal?"

"Ai, just call me Mr. Cui." Cui Heng tried to correct her.

"Okay, Big Brother Immortal!" The little girl grinned and said, "Calling you mister makes you look older. You look so young, not much older than me. It's better to call you Big Brother Immortal!"

Cui Heng looked like he was only 18 or 19 years old.

"Fine." Cui Heng said helplessly.

As he had not spoken to anyone in the last 90 years, his social skills had deteriorated dramatically in the last 30 years.

The way this young lady acted so familiar with him made him even more confused.

This girl could already be considered to have contracted social bull disease.

"Great! Big Brother Immortal, is this your immortal abode?" The little girl smiled gleefully and looked around as she said.

She looked left and right, like a curious baby, then looked at Cui Heng innocently. "Did you bring me here?"

"No." Cui Heng shook his head lightly while his eyes narrowed slightly, and then he said with a smile, "You came here because of a fortuitous encounter, so you don't have to be afraid. You'll return to your original world in 12 days at most."

This little girl was not as innocent as she looked.

"1-12 days?" There was a flash of unnaturalness in the little girl's eyes. The smile on her face stiffened slightly, but it quickly returned to its natural state. She said somewhat dejectedly, "Why is it only 12 days? Big Brother Immortal, can you let me stay in this immortal abode for a little longer?"

"You'll naturally understand in 12 days," said Cui Heng with a smile. After all, he was a Foundation Establishment cultivator, so he was quick-witted and easily familiarized himself with normal social conversations again.

"I see." The little girl looked enlightened. She tilted her little head slightly, looking very cute.

However, her tone was a little lower than before, as if she didn't know what to say next. But she quickly changed the topic. "My name is Jiang Qiqi. Big Brother Immortal, what's your name?"

"Cui Heng, Heng as in eternal." Cui Heng didn't hide his name, so he said it directly so that the little girl could feel more at ease.

"Even the name of Brother Immortal has the feeling of immortals." Jiang Qiqi said with a smile, "Do Immortals exist forever?"

"This little girl must have come from a praising group." Cui Heng couldn't help but complain in his heart, but he still maintained a smile on his face. "I'm just an ordinary person."

"Big Brother Immortal, someone like you… uu…" Jiang Qiqi was about to continue with her compliments when a sudden noise from her stomach interrupted her words.

"Gruu!"

She was hungry.

Due to her obsession with martial arts, she did not even have time to eat lunch before she fell into this Beginner's Space.

"Haha, let's go and eat something." Cui Heng laughed.

"…" Jiang Qiqi's eyes flashed with hesitation, but she quickly made up her mind. She nodded and said sweetly, "En, thank you, Big Brother Immortal!"

Cui Heng brought the little girl to the door of the Beginner's Hut and pressed his finger lightly on the fingerprint scanner.

With a light mechanical sound, the door opened.

"Wow! That's amazing!" Jiang Qiqi's eyes widened as she exclaimed in admiration, "Is this the house that the Big Brother Immortal lives in? It's really amazing!"

"…" Cui Heng was a little embarrassed. He didn't say anything and just walked in.

However, Jiang Qiqi did not follow him. She stood at the door and seemed a little nervous. She looked at Cui Heng and asked in a soft voice, "I, can I really go in directly? I'm just a mortal."

"Come in and eat something." Cui Heng didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

"Mhm, mhm, okay." Jiang Qiqi clenched her small fists, slightly puffed out her chest, and walked in.

However, at this moment, the artificial intelligence sprite detected someone other than Cui Heng walking into the room. It immediately turned on the voice message to greet her. "Hello! Welcome, esteemed guest!"

"Ah!" Jiang Qiqi cried out in alarm, clearly startled by the sudden appearance of this voice.

She really jumped up.

Her head almost hit the ceiling.

"T-this, what is this?" Jiang Qiqi looked around in bewilderment, but she couldn't see a third person.

"This house is talking, don't worry about it." Cui Heng smiled. He couldn't possibly explain to this young lady what artificial intelligence was and what intelligent home appliances were.

Having not interacted with anyone for decades not only reduced his social skills but also his desire to talk.

"Ah, s-so its like this. Big Brother Immortal's house is really amazing!" Jiang Qiqi was actually even more shocked in her heart.

The house could actually speak!

Could this really be the place where Immortals lived? Was this young man who was only a few years older than her really an Immortal who had lived for a long time?

"Go sit at the dining table over there." Cui Heng pointed in the direction of the dining room and said, "I'll cook two bowls of noodles."

With the previous example of Hong Fugui's shock in mind, Cui Heng did not directly call the Yellow-scarved Strongman over.

While Cui Heng was cooking the noodles, the little girl once again fell into a state of confusion.

How could he boil water without a fire? How did he cook the noodles?

If there was no fire, why was the water boiling?

Why did the smoke surge upwards on its own and not scatter around?

Many things were incomprehensible to her.

Could it be that this person was really an Immortal?

But she did not dare to ask too much.

After eating the noodles, Cui Heng did not continue talking to Jiang Qiqi, nor was he in a hurry to ask her anything.

Instead, he brought her to the second floor and pointed to a bedroom for her to rest in.

Then, he returned to the cultivation room on the third floor.

The best way to reassure a young girl of her age was to do nothing first.

...

In the bedroom on the second floor of the Beginner's Hut.

The door was already firmly blocked by tables and chairs. The windows were locked, and the curtains were drawn. The room was completely dark.

At this time, Jiang Qiqi was curled up at the foot of the bed, hugging her legs. Her long black hair was loose, and she buried her face in it. Her petite body couldn't help but tremble, and from time to time, she would let out whimpering sounds.

She was no longer as lively and cheerful as before.

"Daddy, Mommy, where are you?

"I… I'm so scared…"
