The Otherworldly Adventures of a Super Naive Girl

Chapter 227: How Asura People Are Born

The sun turned them into ash and destroyed their bodies so completely that there would be no chance of recovery. Because of this, the most terrifying thing to them was the daylight.

They were born naturally fearing the dark; they could only live in the dark. [notes] Their skin was strong and impervious to all weapons except for pure silver ones.

All were charmingly beautiful and irresistibly drawn to the fragrant scent of human blood. Blood was like opium to them; they were desperate to drink it. And because of their proficiency in illusion spells, their prey willingly offered their blood.

It was inconceivable the havoc a race like that would wreak on the human world.

Several star generals from Star Marshall hall had already been dispatched to track them down.

Xingguang Holy Academy also recruited senior level students to aid in the capture.

Imperial families of all the major empires built up their defenses and increased patrols.

All the major guilds had active quests with incredible rewards for the capture, dead or alive, of blood folk.

Pure arms in all the major cities were sold out. Supplies were low and prices were high, especially anything with silver.

The news spread to every corner of the mainland: the asura were here. All the countries in the ancient east were affected. The number of victims would continue to rise until every escaped asura was accounted for.

Although all the ancient eastern countries were talking about it, Feng Wus life was still relatively peaceful. She had her own things to occupy her time with, so she was usually in her room practicing or chatting with Jier or the others from the Masters team. Her life was easy and pleasant, except sometimes Yanran would run to her room to see Little Bun. Little Bun was unhappy with this, and refused to let her approach him at all.

Xing seemed to like Feng Wu a great deal. She visited almost as often as Yanran did. She was good to Feng Wu, always speaking gently and kindly, reminding Feng Wu to forget the past and look forward. But Feng Wu had no memories of the original owner, so what was there for her to forget? Feng Wu didnt understand her aunt.

Ming Xi called and asked Feng Wu to meet him in the same place as before.

Feng Wu got Xiao Chun back in the same old courtyard. Xiao Chun was very happy! Ming Xis aura was good, but he liked Feng Wus aura most. Xiao Chun was a strong-willed sword. If it didnt like the way you smelled, it would ditch you.

But it felt good to go out this time. There were a lot of polluted things to purify. This was the most fun it had had since leaving the small town.[notes] After affectionally greeting Feng Wu, Xiao Chun returned to her dantian and proceeded to get warm and be nourished with some good rest. It had eaten a lot, and needed time to digest.

The asura contaminated the area around Blood Moon forest and nearly collapsed the entire barrier. Fortunately, with Xiao Chuns help, we were able to clean up the pollution and rearrange the barrier to minimize damage. Ming Xi pulled out several items. All these are for you. Please accept them. They may come in handy in the future.

Ming Xis face was as beautiful as the moonlight. His shallow smile was filled with gentleness and wasnt as reserved or distant as usual.

OK. Feng Wu took out her space ring and directly threw the items inside without even sparing them a glance.

Was it dangerous? Feng Wu asked Ming Xi seriously. She suddenly understood why he needed Xiao Chun after connecting what he said to the recent news she heard.

Aunt Xing said the asura clans were powerful. If Ming Xi went to find them, then wasnt it very dangerous?

Ming Xi didnt expect Feng Wu to ask something like that. He smiled and said, It was alright. I was mainly there to purify the boundary, not to attack the asuras. There were a few small-scale skirmishes, but the asuras were quickly defeated, so there was no danger.

He lied. The situation in Blood Moon forest was much worse than expected. The troops stationed outside the forest were nearly wiped out. The villagers near the forest were also sucked dry.

It was a tough battle for him and the other masters sent to purify the enchantment. The entire periphery was like purgatory on earth. The asuras were tenacious and resisted strongly. They even sent out two princes to battle. Ming Xis group were able to defeat the two princes, but it cost them many high-powered masters. Both sides lost a tremendous amount.

He didnt want Feng Wu to worry about him so he didnt tell her all that.

Feng Wu nodded and took out a beautifully packaged box of biscuits from her space ring after Ming Xi finished talking. The biscuits were made by the chefs in the Feng residence. Feng Wu recently became obsessed with them and normally ate a large plateful every day. She wanted to share the things she liked with Ming Xi.

She held the biscuits out to him with an expectant look on her face. Ming Xi felt like it would be a crime to not accept.

He reached out to take one. As he did so Feng Wus lips curved into a small smile. Even her eyes crinkled slightly.

Ming Xi smiled. Him accepting her cookie, such a simple thing could make her so happy?

Eat, Feng Wu said seriously.

Now?

Feng Wu nodded. Now.

Ming Xi popped the biscuit in his mouth and a milky flavor spread on his tongue. It tastes good. You should have some too. He held onto the cookie box so Feng Wus hands could be free to have some.

Feng Wu picked one up and quietly ate it. The corners of her mouth were still slightly curved and it was easy to tell she was in a good mood.

Xiao Wu, Im leaving the ancient eastern countries tomorrow. Other than returning your sword, I also wanted to say goodbye. We probably wont meet again until school starts. Take care of yourself. There are many people in the region who are hostile towards you. While youre here, make sure to be careful of the things around you, dont be careless.

Even if Ming Xi hadnt specifically asked about Feng Wu, Princess Ronghua talked about Feng Wu from time to time. Thanks to this, Ming Xi was clear about Feng Wus situation in the ancient eastern countries. He had learned a lot.

Princess Ronghua was clever of course. She never directly spoke ill of anyone, but she was skilled at leading the conversation so the other party couldnt help but think the worse.
