Chapter 551 Lan Youyou floated up into the sky after taking the calming bell!
"Thank you, Uncle Ling!"
Lan Youyou sweetly thanked her.
Then she opened her little mouth and took a bite.
Click!
The crisp sound was especially loud in the quiet, secluded place.
The next moment...
Lan Youyou's eyes widened in surprise.
Suddenly, she floated off the ground, like a small balloon being blown up by the wind, swaying and rising slowly.
"what?"
Lan Youyou looked down at the grass receding into the distance, her little face full of confusion.
She kicked her legs and realized she was really flying.
It wasn't the kind of flight where you could control the direction; instead, it drifted along, following the wind.
Lan Youyou wasn't afraid at all; on the contrary, she waved her little hands excitedly, chewing on the fruit, her cheeks puffed out.
"Wow! This fruit is amazing! Eating it will make you fly!"
She chewed it again, swallowed it, and then...
"Hiccup~"
A small burp came out.
She suddenly leaped upwards, rising several feet higher.
"Wow wow wow!"
Lan Youyou tried her best to kick, but she couldn't control her direction.
It drifted left and right, like a kite with a broken string.
Xu Wan's expression changed slightly, and she was about to make a move.
At this moment, Ling Shuo stood still, maintaining the posture of handing out fruit.
His hand was still outstretched, his palm empty, as if he had been paralyzed by acupuncture.
He stared at the blue figure floating in mid-air, his eyes almost popping out of their sockets.
Ling Shuo opened and closed his mouth repeatedly, but he couldn't make a sound.
He lived for 637 years.
Having weathered storms and ventured into dangerous places, I have personally tamed hundreds of violent spiritual plants!
But he swore he had never seen anything like it in his life.
What was that fruit he just handed over?
It's a calming bell.
The name sounds sweet and gentle, and when mature, it can exude a calming aura, which is very beneficial to cultivation.
It's not a flying fruit.
It's not a balloon fruit.
It's not the kind of fruit that will make you fly to the heavens!
But this little person in front of me has indeed gone to heaven.
Ling Shuo watched as Lan Youyou did a somersault in mid-air.
Her little skirt fluttered, revealing a section of her slender, lotus-root-like legs, which twitched and kicked like a little turtle unable to turn over.
His lips began to twitch.
From left cheek to right cheek, from corner of mouth to corner of eye, the entire face is undergoing a subtle, uncontrolled movement.
"This...this isn't right..."
Ling Shuo finally regained her voice, only to find that she could no longer speak fluently.
"How could a calming bell be... I've never heard of it before..."
He seemed to remember something, and his expression suddenly turned strange.
Could it be the spiritual energy that Youyou absorbed earlier?
This little ancestor absorbed a lot of spiritual energy before.
The calming bell was just the trigger; what truly made her float was the spiritual energy.
Ling Shuo has figured this out, and should theoretically be able to breathe a sigh of relief.
But as he watched the little ball of fluff floating higher and higher, more and more joyfully in the sky, he couldn't relax.
Because he suddenly thought of another problem
"Could she just drift away... and float out of the secret realm?"
The voice just fell.
The golden fruit in Lan Youyou's arms suddenly trembled slightly.
The golden fruit that she had been holding tightly slipped from her arms and fell straight to the ground.
"Oh my! Youyou's Guoguo!"
Lan Youyou panicked and reached out to grab it, but because of this movement, she floated up even higher, getting further and further away from the golden fruit.
The golden fruit traced an arc in the air.
Snapped!
It landed gently on the soft grass, rolled around twice, and lay there quietly.
Lan Youyou was so anxious she was almost in tears:
"Guoguo! Guoguo, don't run away! Youyou is coming to save you!"
She kicked her legs desperately, trying to fly down, but the more she kicked, the higher she went, until she was floating in mid-air, a good three or four zhang (approximately 10-12 meters) above the ground.
Ling Shuo looked up at this scene, his expression completely out of control.
He had seen anxious people before, but he had never seen anyone this anxious.
He had seen things fly upwards, but he had never seen anything that flew upwards the more anxious it was.
Those short legs were kicking like they were on fire.
The results of it?
She was getting further and further away from her fruit.
Ling Shuo wanted to laugh.
Seriously, I really want to laugh.
But the current situation is really not suitable for laughing.
He just kept holding it in, his shoulders trembling as if he were having a seizure.
He glanced at Xu Wan furtively.
Xu Wan's expression had changed.
next interest.
Xu Wan lightly touched the ground with her feet and shot straight up.
Her clothes fluttered in the wind, and her black hair flowed freely.
She caught Lan Youyou's small body precisely in mid-air.
With one hand supporting the back of her head and the other tightening around her waist, he held her firmly in his arms.
Ling Shuo stood there, watching this scene, and finally couldn't help but click his tongue softly.
That skill, that reaction, that protective stance.
He's much better than his uncle.
Lan Youyou was gently lowered to the ground in Xu Wan's arms.
The little girl buried her face in Xu Wan's neck and said in a pitiful voice that the fruit had fallen.
Xu Wan didn't respond, but lowered her head to carefully examine the little one in her arms.
After checking from head to toe, from hands to feet, to make sure there was no injury whatsoever, the tension in my eyes slowly faded.
Lan Youyou noticed Xu Wan's worry, and quickly looked up at her with her little face, saying obediently:
"Youyou're fine! She just floated up, but it doesn't hurt at all!"
She thought for a moment, then added:
"It's so much fun!"
Xu Wan sighed softly and rubbed her little head.
Lan Youyou turned to look for her golden fruit, her little face full of anxiety:
"Guoguo! Youyou's Guoguo!"
On the grass not far away, the golden fruit lay quietly, motionless.
Lan Youyou's eyes instantly reddened, and she struggled to get down from Xu Wan's arms:
"Did Guoguo hurt herself? Is she in pain? It's all Youyou's fault, Youyou shouldn't have flown..."
Xu Wan tightened her arms and said gently:
"Don't rush."
She looked up at Ling Shuo beside her, her expression turning serious:
"Ling Shuo, quickly put away the golden fruit, let's leave this place immediately."
Ling Shuo finally snapped out of his mixed feelings.
He strode forward, squatted down, and examined the golden fruit.
The golden fruit lay quietly in the grass, its shell intact.
It trembled slightly, as if it were somewhat bewildered, or perhaps a little aggrieved.
Ling Shuo reached out and gently touched it, muttering softly:
"Little one, you're alright, but you sent our little darling up there..."
"Do you know how panicked I was when I saw her floating in the sky just now?"
The golden fruit trembled, as if in response to him.
Ling Shuo sighed and took out a palm-sized jade bottle from his sleeve.
He gently opened the bottle cap, looked at the golden fruit on the ground, and said softly:
"Would you like to come in and rest for a bit?"
The golden fruit trembled slightly.
It transformed into a golden ray of light and obediently flew into the jade bottle.
Ling Shuo looked around again, his gaze landing on the golden fruits on the ground not far away.
He raised his hand and gestured.
The golden fruits transformed into streaks of golden light and flew into the jade bottle in a line.
All fifteen golden fruits were neatly stored in the jade bottle.
Ling Shuo put the cap back on the bottle and shook it gently. Through the translucent bottle wall, she could see the golden fruits inside huddled together, glowing faintly, as if they were comforting each other.
He tucked the jade bottle into his sleeve and nodded to Xu Wan, saying:
"All right."
Xu Wan said no more, picked up Lan Youyou and turned to leave.
Lan Youyou nestled on Xu Wan's shoulder, her little hands clinging to her arm, watching intently as Ling Shuo put the jade bottle away, and whispered:
"Sister Master, are Guoguo and the others alright?"
Xu Wan responded softly:
"It's nothing, just a change of scenery to rest."
Lan Youyou felt relieved and obediently lay down, rubbing her little face against Xu Wan's neck:
"Then Youyou behaved and stopped making a fuss."
Xu Wan gently patted her back, her steps never faltering.
The three of them walked quickly toward the exit of the secret realm.
Ling Shuo walked at the back, looking back as he went, feeling that something was wrong.
It's too quiet.
With such a huge commotion as the mother species awakening, how come nothing happened?
As he was thinking, he suddenly stopped in his tracks.
A very slight tremor came from the ground.
It's so light that you can barely feel it.
But Ling Shuo's senses were incredibly sharp; he immediately stopped and looked solemnly at the ground beneath his feet.
