Chapter 243 - Xu Wei

Sounds of trickling water could be heard coming from the distance. Ah Chun slowly opened her eyes as the dim light of the room entered her vision. Ah Chun went to go get up but stopped as she heard a cold voice enter her ears. "Don't get up. Your wounds have yet to heal. You are lucky you are contracted to one of the noble Phoenix Clan members. Their princess at that." 

"Are you the one who saved me?" Ah Chun asked.

"You can say that. I would normally not pay much attention to a human but you were with the princess and contracted to her at that. If you died the princess would die. So I saved you for the sake of the princess. Otherwise, I could care less if you lived or died." The young man that looked to be in his twenties was sitting at Ah Chun's bedside. 

Ah Chun saw the young man and was stunned, he looked like a work of art crafted by the gods. Saying he was handsome was an understatement. Even though he held a cold expression he was still very handsome. "I thank you then. How is Xiao Feng was she hurt?" 

"Xiao Feng? The princess? She is doing fine. She's still sleeping over there." The young man pointed over at the basket to the side. It was filled with straw and leaves and in the center of it was Xiao Feng sleeping soundly. 

"That's good as long as she's fine. My name is Ah Chun. May I ask who you are?" Ah Chun asked.

"Mmm… Xu Wei…" Xu Wei weakly replied. "You will need to rest for two days. The princess should be waking up soon."

Ah Chun was not surprised at the fact that Xiao Feng was a princess she did give off that kind of air sometimes. Ah Chun was just happy she and Xiao Feng were alive. When she felt like she was going to pass out she had thought that that was going to be the end of her. Passing out that deep into the Mystic Forest was nothing more than asking for death. "Then big brother Xu, I thank you." 

Ah Chun did not see when Xu Wei turned around his cold indifferent face had a bit of a smile forming. It seemed he liked being called big brother Xu. Ah Chun laid her head back and closed her eyes. She had no idea how many days had passed nor did she care. All she knew was that she was alive and that was all that mattered. She had a long journey ahead of her and it was too early for it to end here. She had to get back to her old world as fast as she could. Thinking of that Ah Chun started to circulate her qi and started to cultivate. 

Two days passed and Ah Chun spent the entire time cultivating. Xiao Feng who had long been awake did not want to disturb Ah Chun during her cultivation so she quietly sat next to Ah Chun and waited for her to finish. When Ah Chun opened her eyes, she found that she felt a lot better and did not feel any pain anymore. On top of that, she had broken through to the rank two qi gathering. With this breakthrough, Ah Chun could feel the spiritual qi flowing through her meridians a lot smoother and that her meridians had opened up more. 

"Chun'er your done cultivating?" Xiao Feng asked.

"Yeah, I also broke through to rank two qi gathering." Ah Chun said with a smile.

"Your cultivation speed is pretty quick  you had just recently broken through to qi gathering a week ago." Xiao Fang said in amazement. Normally it would take a few weeks to reach the next rank and for those who were slower a few months could pass by but Ah Chun who had just broken through not too long and had not cultivated at all since then except for the past two days to break through so easily was truly amazing.

"It's good to have a fast cultivation speed but not too quick. I don't want a shaky foundation. Now that I broke through I will need to solidify my foundation before I even think of reaching rank three qi gathering." Ah Chun explained.

"As expected of someone who had lived for tens of thousands of years." Xiao Feng teased.

Ah Chun smiled as she said: "This world is different from my old one. I do not have the benefits my old body had. I even lost my primordial god clan bloodline."

"There seems to be many differences in the cultivation systems between the two worlds. But from what you said our cultivation system is stronger than your old worlds. So if you want to reach your goals to get back there then it was probably best that you came to this world." Xiao Feng knew that Ah Chun wanted to get back to her old world where her family and friends were. 

"Ahem… It seems your awake. Since you are fine now the two of you can leave." A cold voice interrupted Ah Chun's and Xiao Feng's talk. 

"Ah yes, Chun'er this is the old coot I was talking about! Quickly have him sign a contract with you!" Xiao Feng stated bluntly. Acting as if Xu Wei had no say in the matter. Ah Chun could not help but chuckle at Xiao Feng's bluntness.

"Xiao Feng if you say it like that wouldn't that just bother big brother Xu?" Ah Chun asked.

Before Xiao Feng could answer Ah Chun's question a cold voice sounded out first saying: "I'll form a contract with you."
