When a Blade of Grass Wants to Become Immortal

Chapter 203: Chapter 199: Interstellar Deserted Star Farm Woman 10

Dai Lixing instinctively grabbed Ji Xiaosong’s wrist, only to see her holding back a laugh. ”I’m trying to see if I can feel your spiritual power.”

”Learn the basics first.”

The tips of his ears burned. He pressed her hand against his temple.

”Close your eyes and feel the frequency of my brainwaves.”

Ji Xiaosong’s eyelashes cast a trembling shadow beneath her eyes.

She suddenly moved closer to his neck, her warm breath brushing over his collarbone.

”Your heart is beating so fast. Are you nervous?”

Dai Lixing shot to his feet, and the hoverchair toppled over with a CLANG.

He turned his back to steady his breathing, but he heard Ji Xiaosong burst out laughing. ”The great interstellar War God is blushing while teaching a student?”

”You know?”

Dai Lixing spun around, his pupils constricting slightly in the darkness.

The fireflies at the edge of the field suddenly went out all at once, as if scattered by the abrupt tension in his spiritual power.

”How did you suddenly find out?”

His voice was hoarse. As his Adam’s apple bobbed, he could hear his own heart thundering in his chest.

”Come on, I use the internet. Your picture is online.”

Ji Xiaosong laughed. ”I didn’t know anything about you before because I’d never connected to the Star Network. Now that I have, how could I not know of your great reputation?”

The tips of Dai Lixing’s ears were so red they looked like they might bleed. ”Actually... I’m not that amazing. The whole ’number one War God’ thing is just an empty title the netizens gave me. Just an empty title.”

He took a deep breath, suppressing the turmoil inside him.

”Let’s continue the lesson.”

He swiped his fingertip to project a stream of data, only to find his spiritual power frequency was a complete mess.

”The core of First-Rank Cultivation is establishing a spiritual power circuit.”

His voice was an octave lower than usual, sounding extremely magnetic.

Dai Lixing’s voice was like a cello dipped in honey, the rich timbre sending an electric current up her spine.

Ji Xiaosong’s heart skipped a beat. She suddenly realized her spiritual power circuit was forming automatically just from the sound of his voice.

”You...”

She swallowed hard, discovering that her own voice was trembling.

”Is your voice always so...”

”So what?”

As Dai Lixing looked up, the tips of his hair brushed her nose. The scent of cedar mixed with gunpowder, wrapped in a low-frequency vibration, drilled into her ears.

Ji Xiaosong suddenly reached out and covered his lips, her fingertips feeling the vibration of his vocal cords. In that instant, her spiritual power circuit exploded like fireworks.

”Don’t talk!”

Her face was redder than a ripe strawberry. ”Your voice right now... it could get someone pregnant!”

Dai Lixing’s pupils contracted sharply, and his spiritual power barrier shattered with a boom.

”So, Xiaosong has a thing for voices.”

He suddenly started to laugh. ”Since you like this kind of voice, how about I talk to you like this from now on?”

”Yes! Absolutely!”

Dai Lixing slowly continued his explanation, and Ji Xiaosong quickly became engrossed.

”You learned it after just one explanation. Your spiritual power level must be very high. Tomorrow, I’ll teach you the Second-Order and Third-Rank methods for spiritual power Cultivation. For tonight, just focus on consolidating what you’ve learned.”

Leaving Ji Xiaosong to her own devices, Dai Lixing went back to repairing his spaceship.

Most of the spaceship was repaired by now, with only the final cockpit section remaining.

He’d already come up with a plan during the day and just needed to organize his thoughts tonight.

Ji Xiaosong returned to her room and continuously refined the Cultivation method Dai Lixing had taught her. She discovered that her Divine Sense had improved dramatically.

”Rongrong, this spiritual power really is similar to Divine Sense. Cultivating spiritual power can also enhance my Divine Sense.”

”That’s a good thing. You should know that even in the Cultivation World, Divine Sense is extremely difficult to cultivate.”

Rongrong lay on Ji Xiaosong’s bed, looking utterly content.

”When do you think you’ll be able to take human form?”

”I have to wait until all our missions are complete. Then I’ll be able to cultivate a human form.”

”Oh well. Your current state isn’t bad either. Being a cloud is very freeing.”

”Right, I think so too. Song, Dai Lixing will be here for two more days at most. Why don’t you two just go ahead and make a baby? That way, you can complete the mission at the same time.”

”Seriously? We’ve only known each other for a day and a night. How did we get to the ’making a baby’ stage already?”

”Because of the poison in Dai Lixing’s body. It’s not that easy to neutralize. He ate the fruits and vegetables from your garden today, which helped a lot, but it’s very difficult to eradicate completely. When the poison flares up, he’ll have to copulate with someone. You know what ’copulate’ means, right?”

”Huh? Hasn’t the poison ever flared up before?”

”That’s right. According to the records of the Star Lord of Destiny, it’s never flared up before. Wasn’t it all to wait for you? It’s flaring up now that you’ve arrived, so he can be cured and you can complete your mission.”

”That Star Lord of Destiny is really something; he’s calculated everything so clearly. Did he record when Dai Lixing’s poison will flare up?”

”Tomorrow night or tonight? It can be whenever you want. After all, it just depends on you saying the word.”

”Let’s make it tomorrow night. I’m a little tired tonight. I need to sleep.”

Ji Xiaosong changed into her pajamas, lay down on the bed, and pulled the covers over herself.

”By the way, after the poison flares up and he... does that, will he be cured?”

”That’s right.”

”Then I can rest easy. That way, he can leave and complete his own mission. We should probably erase his memories afterward. Otherwise, with his status, we’ll never have a moment’s peace.”

Ever since Ji Xiaosong found out her mission was to have a child who would farm, she had never once considered having any future ties to Dai Lixing.

’I’m perfectly capable of earning my own money,’ she thought. ’It doesn’t matter whether the child’s father is in the picture or not.’

Rongrong wanted to say something but held her tongue.

’Forget it,’ she thought. ’I’d better not tell Ji Xiaosong that the two of them are already connected on the Star Network.’

’After all, Dai Lixing had bought her a planet and transferred money to her. How could he possibly not be able to find her later?’

’Unless he just forgot for a while and didn’t think of it. If he remembers in the future, he’ll definitely be able to track her down.’

’But there’s no need to crush her enthusiasm right now. It’s good to let her be happy for a little while.’

The next morning, everything was as usual.

Ji Xiaosong made two large pots of hand-pulled noodles. They weren’t purely vegetarian this time; she also added plenty of sliced beef rolls and fried eggs.

”This morning, I plan to check out a place a little farther away. I’ll be back before lunch. If you get hungry, just go pick some fruit to eat.”

Dai Lixing frowned. ”Will it be dangerous?”

”I’m just inspecting my own territory. What risk could there be? Don’t worry, on all of Wa Star, there’s nothing that can hurt me.”

Thinking about how Ji Xiaosong had managed to survive all alone on this planet, Dai Lixing didn’t say anything more.

After eating, Ji Xiaosong did the same as yesterday: once she was out of Dai Lixing’s sight, she sat on Rongrong and departed.

This time, she planned to go check out the seaside.
