CH 32

Even after walking for so long, Lu Shiqian still felt energetic. Her magic sea continuously circulated, refining her body and becoming more solid. The more she breaks through her limits the more quickly she’ll advance.

“Yeah, Master said that things outside can be bought with gold coins so…” he never brought food with him. Aiyah, buying things costs a lot of money, you know?

Lu Shiqian almost choked. How in the world did this kid become a Rank 7 High Mage? By drinking water?! The Master must also be very talented if he raised his disciple to be this oblivious when it comes to society. And then there are his innocent eyes which clearly give away his naïveté. He must also be quite a stubborn person to become a High Mage at such a young age. “Take off your shoes and let me see.”

“Eh? Take off my shoes?” Wei Mo’s blush spread all the way to his neck, his head shaking like a drum. If she sees his feet in this kind of condition… I’d rather kill myself! 

Naturally, Lu Shiqian didn’t know what Wei Mo was thinking about, she thought that he was afraid of pain (from getting it tended to). This kind of person was too simple and probably rarely met people. She threw a bottle with golden pills in it to him and turned around, “Tend to it yourself or else we won’t be able to move on.”

“En.” Blushing, Wei Mo looked at Lu Shiqian. She actually has her back to me! He took off his shoes and a weird odor rose up. The bubbles had all burst but fortunately, she didn’t see him in this state. He gratefully looked in her direction and his eyes suddenly widened. There was a terrifying blood-red snake about to attack her!

He didn’t hesitate at all and threw himself in front of Lu Shiqian, blocking the snake. The blood-red snake also lunged and sunk its teeth deep into Wei Mo’s shoulders.

This was a Forest Python and extremely poisonous!

The poison quickly paralyzed the nerves and caused painful pangs throughout Wei Mo’s body. He weakly fell to the floor.

He gritted his teeth to block the escaping sound. His body was slightly red, intoxicatingly so!

Of course, Lu Shiqian didn’t know the effect her actions had on Wei Mo. She finished sucking out the poison and said, “Alright! You should be fine after applying some medicine.”

Wei Mo was suddenly at a loss, he was even of half a mind to get bitten again so that… it would perhaps last longer? What is this strange new feeling in his heart? He had never felt this way about anything except for his beloved spells!

Lu Shiqian looked at the sky, looked at Wei Mo, and thought: Wei Mo won’t be able to walk anymore today. She decided to make camp and take a good night rest. They can start on their way tomorrow.

“Did your master tell you it was this way?” Lu Shiqian asked as she set up a tent. Why is this kid still staring into space?
