The woman seemed to be moved by Xiaoqiang's words. She slowly reached out and touched Xiaoqiang's face, as if she wanted to confirm whether everything in front of her was real. When the touch and the temperature gradually warmed her palm, the woman suddenly
He hugged Xiaoqiang into his arms and cried uncontrollably.
Xiaoqiang heard a lot from those cries, a lot. Although he didn't understand what the woman in front of him had experienced, he could feel the real regret and pain for himself at this moment.
After a long time, when the woman's crying gradually stopped, she slowly let go of Xiaoqiang and looked at the child in front of her again. The mission given by the third prince had been forgotten in her mind.
"What did you just see?"
The woman's tone began to gradually recover, and the arrogance and charm in her expression gradually emerged. Looking at this woman whose expression changed again, Xiaoqiang's heart suddenly tightened.
"No, I didn't see anything."
Xiaoqiang immediately rejected it, and his body became tense unconsciously.
"Are you sure you haven't?"
The woman's eyes became sharp, and everything before disappeared without a trace like a passing cloud of smoke.
Xiaoqiang nodded repeatedly, "I'm sure, very sure."
The woman stared at Xiao Qiang's eyes, unable to see anything in them, but suddenly she smiled again, scraped Xiao Qiang's nose, and said angrily.
"You slippery devil."
The sudden change made Xiaoqiang's head almost unable to keep up with the opponent's rhythm. While he was still thinking about how to deal with the next thing, the woman slowly stood up and walked towards the door.
"Are you leaving?"
Looking at the woman's back, Xiaoqiang suddenly asked a verbose question for some reason, and then he felt a burst of annoyance in his heart: Am I crazy for asking this question?
When Xiaoqiang felt regretful, the woman turned her head and showed a shallow smile towards Xiaoqiang.
"If you don't leave, do you want me to kill you?"
After that, the woman left the room without making any unnecessary movements.
After the temperature in the air gradually returned to calm, Xiaoqiang retreated from the previous panic and confusion. He did not follow her out, nor did he confirm whether the woman had left. Instead, he sat on the ground in a daze, lost in some kind of thinking.
among.
Another quarter of an hour passed before Xiaoqiang came out of his daze. The first words he spoke were not annoyance and dissatisfaction, but a complaint.
"Leave without leaving a name!"
As the words fell, Xiaoqiang was about to stand up, but then a strange scene appeared. Wisps of flames suddenly appeared on the floor in front of him, and the flames strangely formed a name - Flame Fairy.
.
The time came on the second day.
What happened last night lingered in Xiaoqiang's mind, especially the last complaint, which made him completely silent. He looked around without saying anything, and his nerves were so tense that he didn't dare to relax at all until early morning.
Only when the sun shone onto the earth did he get out of that tension.
"Well..., you should go."
Slowly spitting out a mouthful, Xiaoqiang's muscles relaxed. At this moment, his eyes had dark circles and his face looked depressed.
"It seems that I am still too weak."
Xiaobai's voice sounded in his head, "The host can recognize this, and you are starting to make progress."
Xiaoqiang was a little angry, "Are you trying to kill me?"
"No, I'm just stating a fact."
"Stop talking about these useless things, do you know that woman's strength?"
Xiaobai said, "That woman is much more powerful than you think. I suggest the host not to think too much about it."
"How powerful is it?" Xiao Qiang was curious.
"Do you really want to hear it?"
"Yes, I do want to know."
"Well, her strength is far above ordinary people. Among all the people you meet, no one is her opponent."
"I'm not here to hear this, make it clear."
"In that case, I won't beat around the bush anymore. Her strength is estimated to be over level 100, and she also possesses some kind of divine beast protection."
"Mythical beast? What do you mean?"
Xiaoqiang had already been mentally prepared for the woman's strength. Now he was not as surprised as he had imagined, but he was just a little curious about the mythical beast.
"I couldn't detect anything inside the other person's body. I just vaguely sensed a magical bird."
"Sacred bird? Is it a phoenix?"
"It's possible."
Xiaoqiang wondered, "Then why does she own a mythical beast? Can everyone in this world own a mythical beast?"
"I can't answer this host."
Not getting the answer he wanted, Xiaoqiang fell into deep thought again, but at this moment, he was thinking more about how to improve his strength rather than the so-called divine beast.
In last night's battle, let's call it a battle, he had no chance of resistance from beginning to end, not even the slightest. He experienced this kind of frustration for the first time, and he was also filled with an extreme thirst for power.
.
"Xiao Bai, is my talent still acceptable?"
Xiaobai wondered, "Why did the host say that?"
Xiaoqiang did not answer, but continued to talk to himself, "When will I have the strength like her."
"According to calculations, if the host never sleeps, it is estimated that it can be reached in ten years."
"It will take another ten years?!"
Xiao Qiang lamented in frustration, but when this sentence fell into Xiao Bai's ears, it was almost astonishing to laugh.
"Is the host doubting himself?"
Xiaoqiang said, "A little bit."
"Then you don't have to, because the host's talent is already at the top level. To be able to reach the other person's height in ten years is already a monster-like talent in this world."
Xiaoqiang lamented, "But it will still take ten years."
"The host is a little too ambitious. There are many strong people in this world. To be precise, there are too many. If you are entangled in this, I am afraid it will have a psychological impact on you and be detrimental to your future growth."
"I understand this, but I just can't get over the psychological hurdle."
Seeing that Xiaoqiang's expression gradually lost the previous confidence, Xiaobai became a little worried.
"There are many ways to improve strength. If the host can afford it, there may be other ways."
When Xiaoqiang heard this, he was surprised and said, "What method? Tell me quickly."
"A bird in a cage can never fly. If the host can spread its wings and fly high, and let go of everything, it may be able to achieve some changes."
"Change?" Xiaoqiang began to think about System Xiaobai's words, and a vague idea came to his mind.
