Jin Bao'er hadn't even had time to be dumbfounded before the dwarf girl turned her gaze back to Long Lixing, her attitude extremely firm!
"Don't be shy, our dwarf tribe is very loyal to our partners!"
With that, she quickly explained further, her gaze full of sincerity!
"Although you're only average-looking, too tall, your physique is just passable, and your eye color is very strange... I don't mind. As long as you are with me, I can guarantee that I will only love you exclusively in the future!"
Upon hearing this, Jin Huang burst into laughter. Tianshu, who had been lying around bored, immediately perked up his ears and looked up! His gossipy heart burned fiercely, his eyes excited and eager...
That's right, this black dragon was indeed ugly! So dark and unappealing, how could he compare? Only Jin Bao'er could possibly take a liking to him!!
Jin Bao'er swallowed the words that had risen to her throat, her eyes looking at the dark-faced Long Lixing in astonishment...
Was this appearance considered average? Was this physique passable? Were these eye colors strange??
Subconsciously, she suddenly turned her head to look at the assembled dwarves. Seeing a group of displeased gazes and eyes chiding the girl, she finally let out a sigh of relief!
Oh... thankfully, only this one had questionable taste!
Long Lixing pursed his lips, his face darkening! Especially when he heard the words "only love you exclusively," his eyes instantly shot out boundless, chilling killing intent...
"I'll say it one more time... Scram!"
The dwarf girl was startled by this roar and trembled, but she tightly held her lips, unwilling to back down, her eyes stubbornly fixed on him.
Perhaps sensing the increasingly bizarre atmosphere, the dwarf chief finally stepped forward to mediate... his expression sharp as he reprimanded!
"Stop messing around!"
Jin Bao'er nodded faintly, agreeing. That's right! This was her man, already taken! Not just anyone could covet him!
However, in the next second!
"Concentration is essence! Who else could you have fancied but such a tall person? It's not that Father dislikes him, but rather... the men of the dwarf tribe are all handsome and strong, and he doesn't even measure up... cough cough! Come back!"
"Pfft!!"
The tone revealed naked disdain and pity! It was clearly an expression of sympathy for a disabled youth!
Long Lixing's face turned completely black upon hearing this. A cold aura with powerful pressure surged towards them, but it was halted by a slender finger suddenly extended.
His purple eyes flickered, meeting the woman's black eyes that were suppressing a smile. He frowned displeasedly, his voice laced with danger...
"I'm ugly? I'm not strong enough?"
The gnashing, mortified anger made Jin Bao'er suppress her smile. She quickly explained.
"No, I didn't think that! Different races have different aesthetics! Don't be angry."
He reluctantly accepted this explanation, but the unhappiness and coldness on his face lingered for a long time...
"Let's go, I don't like it here!"
Jin Bao'er nodded. Since the matter couldn't be resolved, they should indeed leave soon.
Then, she looked at the cultivator on the ground who had just woken up, eyes closed, pretending to be dead and eavesdropping. Her expression was indifferent as she said,
"Roll yourself away... or shall I send you on your way?"
Upon hearing this, the man's body stiffened completely. A chill washed over him, and he suddenly woke up, hurriedly opened his eyes, and fled with all his might!
Jin Bao'er showed no reaction as she watched him go. It wasn't until he was far away that she turned to leave!
"Wait, wait... wait a moment!"
An urgent cry rang out. A young dwarf squeezed out from the crowd, looking at her anxiously, seemingly conflicted and unsure. But thinking of everything Jin Bao'er had done for them, he suppressed the astonished gazes of the others and looked up with determination...
"There is another person, his artifact refining skills are extremely outstanding! I think... perhaps you can get help from him!"
Upon hearing this, the dwarves were instinctively surprised. Murmurs immediately arose from the crowd! Only a few people's faces sank, as if they had thought of someone...
The dwarf chief was even more angered, sternly saying.
"Don't talk nonsense!"
The young dwarf, however, seemed to be provoked. He suddenly turned to face the many tribesmen, his pale face high as he refuted!
"I'm not talking nonsense! Feixi'er is the most outstanding artifact refiner! His talent is evident to all, he is the most powerful genius in the dwarf tribe!!"
The dwarf chief's expression sank! He immediately retorted.
"He is not a member of the dwarf tribe! That bastard, I will never acknowledge him!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the whispering voices instantly disappeared! The young dwarf who had spoken was forced to close his mouth, looking helpless...
Clearly, the person named Feixi'er was a taboo within the dwarf tribe.
But Jin Bao'er was not a member of the dwarf tribe. She only cared about the abilities of an artifact refiner. Recalling the certainty and fervor in the young dwarf's eyes... she nodded slightly and looked at him. m..oΓg
"Where is Feixi'er?"
It was better to see for herself than to hear from others!
Upon hearing this, the dwarf chief's expression became even more unpleasant. He flicked his hand, turned away, and snorted coldly.
"Whatever you wish, but that anomaly could never possess such skill!"
The young dwarf's face turned pale, but meeting Jin Bao'er's gaze, he gritted his teeth and decided to lead the way! Although the dwarves were selfish and hot-tempered, some debts of gratitude had to be repaid.
"I'll take you!"
He stepped forward, leading the way with a firm tone! No one from the dwarf tribe spoke, and some even showed clear disdain in their eyes.
Jin Bao'er and Long Lixing exchanged a glance. Hearing the certainty in the young dwarf's tone, they became more curious and followed. Jin Huang and Tianshu followed closely behind...
After walking for a long time through a forest ravine, Jin Bao'er still hadn't sensed any dwarf aura. Just as she entered a barrier and almost thought the young dwarf was playing a trick on her, Long Lixing suddenly stopped and held her back, his gaze fixed ahead...
"Someone's here!"
She followed his gaze, magnifying her divine sense to observe carefully. Only then did she detect a unique aura, one that felt even familiar!
That annoying yet familiar fluctuation of power gradually became clearer.
Following that, the two quickened their pace. Long Lixing even lifted the young dwarf with one hand, and the three figures instantly flashed forward! In just a blink of an eye, they appeared on a hillside!
All the faint power fluctuations emanated from within the nearby rock wall...
It was an illusion!
Unlike a true illusion, an illusion only required certain techniques and visual contrasts to disguise the real content! It didn't require much energy.
The young dwarf was startled by the extremely rapid progress. When he opened his eyes and saw their destination, he was shocked that the two knew the location...
Jin Bao'er directly had Long Lixing release him. Her gaze fell upon the rock wall, her brows furrowed.
"There's someone inside, but this aura... it feels a bit like something!"
Especially this pure, innate energy fluctuation, it was very similar to what she had seen on Blue Star! The kind of aura that resembled a certain academy head...
To be honest, she quite disliked that academy head! It was perhaps because of the Mother God, but she just didn't like that kind of obsessive, secret crush.
