Ding!

[Qi increased by 1,440. Current Qi 186,080/249,000]

"Good morning, Xue," Snowy waved her hand at Feng Xue, who just exited her room.

"M-morning, Snowy! Ah, I'm going to check my father's condition. See you later!" Feng Xue flustered and hastily ran away when she saw Snowy greet her.

Snowy frowned when she saw Feng Xue figure quickly disappeared, entering next corridor. Actually, it had been a week since Feng Xue and Snowy play this game of cat and mouse. Snowy felt so confused about Feng Xue's strange behavior.

Suddenly, a sweet voice came from behind her.

"Do you two have a fight?" Madam Feng appeared wearing a blue loose dress making her motherly figure more enchanting, and quietly sat on the stone bench nearby.

"No." Snowy shook her head readily.

"Then, why does it seems she is avoiding you?" Madam Feng raised her brow, baffled.

"I don't know." Snowy looked down and sounded very dejected.

"Just tell me the whole story. Maybe I can help you." With a gentle smile, she asked Snowy to sit beside her.

"Un."

Snowy began talking about the gist of what happened the night after they returned from Yan Family's Mansion.

***

After Feng Xue, Snowy, and the Heaven Sword sect trio returned to City Lord's Mansion, Elder Yang quickly excused himself and departed from the mansion alongside Lin Ming and Zi Ling.

The situation in the mansion has already improved. As an accomplice of Feng Luo's crime, Chamberlain Xi had been deprived of his position as the head of the servant. However, his life was pardoned due to the dedication and loyalty he had had for the Feng Family in the time he was in service.

Feng Xue didn't complain about her mother's judgment and felt the punishment was enough, considering his action stem from his concern for the family's survival.

When the night fell, Snowy accompany Feng Xue visiting Feng Xuan's room. Feng Xue carefully washed his body and changed his clothes. Even though she smiled while she was taking care of her father, her eyes couldn't hide the sadness inside.

"Don't worry. Your father will be better soon. Everybody is helping you right now, and you're not alone." Snowy noticed her gloominess and gently comforted her.

"I know But, I'm still afraid. What if, with all effort we did, we still failed to find all the ingredients or alchemist to concocted the medicine?" a puddle of tears slowly formed and moisten Feng Xue's eyes.

"We, no, I will find another way then. Just believe in me."

Seeing Feng Xue was about to cry, Snowy caress her cheek and wiped her tears gently using her thumb.

"Thank you, Snowy really."

Feeling the warmth of Snowy's hand on her face, Feng Xue calmed down. Her gaze fell on Snowy's beautiful eyes and felt resolute will and determination within it.

"Do you still remember when I said I would give you another cultivation method that fit your bloodline and constitution? Let's return to your room so I can teach you the technique." Snowy was the first to break the silence and change the topic.

"Okay." Feng Xue nodded obediently; a tinge of redness appear on her ears.

***

When they arrived at Feng Xue's room, Snowy swiftly scourge her memories for the suitable cultivation technique for Feng Xue. In a second, she finished searching and found the < Divine Phoenix Scripture > that perfectly match her bloodlines and could help to enhance her constitution.

< Divine Phoenix Scripture >

< Rank : Divine >

< Description: A cultivation method derived from Divine Phoenix's Grand Dao. There are three stages of comprehension: Partial Transformation, Full Transformation, and Becoming. Increasing in stage give user unique ability. The legend said that whoever can fully comprehend this method would be the supreme ruler over the nine firmaments. This cultivation method provides the user the Pure Fire Qi.>

---

The complete < Divine Phoenix Scripture > was a Divine-ranked technique and far beyond her current limitation. However, if she adjusted the technique to a heaven-ranked technique it will limit Feng Xue's potential. Without any second thought, she decisively chose the former.

'I'll pick the complete method. Even if it is painful, I can still bear it.'

Ding!

[Divine-ranked technique successfully created]

[Due to grade exceeding Host limitation. The host will receive a penalty.]

"Aargh argh"

An intense pain assaulted her body made her fell on the ground in the fetal position. Her face contorted so hard that anyone who saw her could imagine the pain she felt.

"Snowy!! What happen to you?!" Feng Xue panicked when she saw Snowy suddenly thrashing on the floor. She hastily hugged Snowy and carried her to the bed.

"Calm down, Xue. I'm fine. Its just the cultivation method is currently beyond my capability, so I suffer backlash a little bit. It will getting better soon," Snowy said softly to reassure Feng Xue.

"You..!! You, stupid! Why are you so reckless! I don't need it if it hurts you," shouted Feng Xue.

"If you don't want it. My pain will be in vain," replied Snowy with helpless smile.

"Fine! But, next time, ask my opinion first! I don't want anybody sacrifice themselves for me," Feng Xue finally conceded to Snowy's demand albeit reluctantly. She actually appreciated what Snowy's done for her.

After gaining Feng Xue's approval, Snowy took out one slip jade from her ring and transferred the technique into it.

"This is for you."

"Di-divine-ranked technique!!" Despite knowing Snowy's resourcefulness, Feng Xue couldn't help but shocked when she saw the technique.

She remembered Snowy had once told her about the grade above heaven-ranked, but she couldn't believe that Snowy had one in her possession even with her wildest imagination.

"Can I really learn it?"

As far as she knew, this technique was already touching the mystical Gods and Goddesses realm. Does a mortal like her will be worthy to learn this technique? Feng Xue felt very doubtful.

"I'll guide you. It would be best if you didn't look down on yourself. With your talent and high comprehension, you'll definitely be able to learn it." Snowy said confidently.

"Thank you, Snowy"

"Smooch."

In a spur of a moment, Feng Xue's head suddenly leaned toward Snowy's face and kissed her, to be precise it more of a peck than a kiss because Feng Xue's lips had only slightly touch Snowy's skin before she back away a moment later.
