Chapter 52 - Refinement Mode?
The detached observer, Duan Yue, sneered. “He dared to bet his 12 years of life on the fact that the little girl definitely did not attack in order to save an insignificant and dumb squirrel!”
In reality, the little white squirrel just happened to flee toward Qiao Mu and the mystic energy behind Yao Ji’s charge did not allow Qiao Mu to consider too much, so she had no choice but to meet her head first to prevent herself from being harmed.
The little white squirrel was nothing but a coincidental rescue…
Currently, Qiao Mu kept her face stoic as she distastefully reached behind her and grabbed the little white squirrel to dangle in front of her eyes before carelessly tossing it.
With a whoosh, the pitiful little squirrel was sent propelling into the air…
The corner of Duan Yue’s mouth twitched. He really did not want to roast this vicious child.
Typically, shouldn’t little girls really like it when they see such cute, furry things? It was evident that this black-hearted thing wearing the skin of a little girl was not an actual little girl.
“Chirp— squeak squeak.” The little white squirrel bounced back lightning quick, its large eyes brimming with pitiful tears. It followed the lower hem of Qiao Mu’s clothes and used its short front claws to tug on a corner.
Qiao Mu looked down and found the clever little squirrel humanely looking at her with its jet black eyes and swinging from the folds of her clothes before jumping to her waist. It then slipped to the back of her shoulders again with a swish.
Qiao Mu was confounded. Just where did this lively little white squirrel pop up from?
Based on her knowledge in her previous life, there were usually two types of mystic realms. One of them was mystic realms established and left behind by unworldly masters—the grotto-heaven immortal abodes. This type usually had ferocious beasts placed by the seniors and masters to protect the mystic realms and test those who enter.
The other kind was the one they were in, naturally birthed and nurtured from nature and forming on its own accord after being enveloped in spiritual energy for hundreds of years. Before outsiders open the mystic realm, it is its own sealed world completely isolated from the outside world. It contained various mines and spiritual plants, but living animals were rare.
Unless it was those mystic realms that formed after thousands and millions of years where it had developed its own rules in nature and all sorts of living beings were generated, then it can form its own complete biosphere.
She had never heard someone mention that poisonous squirrels appeared in the secret paradise in her past life.
“Squeak squeak, squeak, chirp.” The little white squirrel excitedly jumped on her shoulder and kept blinking its dark round eyes, a fawning look appearing on its furry face.
Qiao Mu grabbed the little squirrel again and was about to fling it a worlds away so that it could not come near her again, but an unexpected gathering of mystic energy from their surroundings cemented her to her spot.
The dense mystic energy condensed into puffs of tangible clouds that all pressed down on her. Moreover, the mystic energy from every corner of the mystic realm all rolled towards her endlessly, converging around her.
This odd occurrence was quickly detected by Yao Ji and her cohorts. Their eyes were wide open in fear as they watched the flowing mystic energy rushing past them and sailing toward the little girl without any resistance.
“This…” Why is it like this? Yao Ji’s eyes nearly fell out of their sockets from how hard she was staring.
Everything was dandy… what did this d*mn girl do?
Suddenly, a disciple of the Coitus Sect shakily spoke up. “The little girl is refining all the mystic energy inside the secret realm?”
“How could that be possible!” Yao Ji immediately shrieked like a turkey, her eyes unwaveringly glaring at Qiao Mu. “What a joke! She is still so young. Forcefully refining all the mystic energy inside the mystic realm won’t benefit her at all, it would just fill her until she explodes!”
