🕑 Added 2024-12-15 17:05:56 +0000 UTC"Hehe~ It's so warm and comfortable~" The little girl closed her eyes, enjoying the gentle head pat. After a moment, as if realizing his question, she tilted her head, thinking deeply. Finally, she looked up at him with a grin and said, "Name? Ughh... I don't know! Does Big Brother know?"
Yun Wuji already knew the character of the girl, so he wasn't surprised by her weird response. Instead, he asked, "You don't remember your name? Then... do you know where your home is? Who your parents are?"
"Wuaaahhhhhh..." The girl stretched with a yawn and shook her head firmly. "Of course, I don't know! I completely don't remember!"
"Sigh, another crazy one," Jasmine covered her forehead and sighed.
Her sigh caught the little girl's attention. The young girl's eyes lit up, sparkling like stars. "Wahhhhh! Big sis, your clothes are so pretty! They're red! Red... I love red!!!"
"..." Jasmine.
Before Jasmine could reply, the little girl's attention shifted to the Coffin of Eternity. She softly said, "Waaah! What a beautiful crystal bed! Was this where I was sleeping? It's so pretty... But it's so hard, it's not really comfortable. Big brother, can you carry me out? The crystal bed is so tall, if I climb out, it'll ruin my image as a beautiful young lady."
"Should I?" Yun Wuji tilted his head, asking playfully. After spending so much time with Hei Xiaolian, he knew exactly how to handle energetic little girls like her.
"Yes! Big brother, carry me out, pleaseee? Pleaseee?" The young girl nodded vigorously, her eyes flashing as she spoke in the most pitiful tone.
"Alright, miss beautiful young lady," Yun Wuji chuckled, extending his hands to lift her out of the crystal coffin and set her down outside.
"Wahh... so comfortable!" The girl stretched out with a big yawn, then looked up at Yun Wuji, her ruby-like eyes sparkling. "Big brother, where are we gonna play? This place looks so fun!"
"We can play later, after we leave this place, okay?" Yun Wuji patted her head with his hand, glowing with white light, as he spoke.
"Master, you're so biased! You never treated me with such care!" Hei Xiaolian pouted, feeling wronged.
"Guuuuu..."
A strange sound came from the girl as she began touching her stomach with her small hand. Her previously excited expression quickly faded. "Umm... I'm suddenly very hungry..." she said, then turned to look at Yun Wuji. "Big brother, I'm suddenly very hungry. Do you have anything nice to eat?"
"Here, take this," Yun Wuji said, pulling out a profound sky-grade sword and handing it to her.
"Yay, thank you, Big Brother!" She took the sword and bit it with her small teeth, easily sinking into it like a soft cake.
Crunch! Crunch! Crunch!
"Delicious... So delicious!!" she exclaimed.
"What the fuck?" Jasmine's eyes widened in astonishment as she looked at the girl, and then glanced at Yun Wuji.
"She's a Celestial Spirit from the Ancient Era who can transform into a sword, that's why she feeds on swords," Yun Wuji explained, still gazing at Hong'er.
"Big brother is so smart!" The little girl quickly finished the sword and took his hand, which was glowing with light. "My sword is very big, do you wanna see it?"
"Wording, mind your wording, please," Jasmine said, black lines appearing on her forehead.
"Yes, I'm quite curious," Yun Wuji nodded.
A crimson-red light suddenly radiated from the little girl's body. Within the light, she slowly floated up in the air, and her entire figure was completely enveloped by red light.
After the dispersal of the red light, the little girl's figure had completely disappeared, her what appeared in their eyes, was a crimson red odd-shaped gigantic sword!!
The sword was a deep crimson, covered in messy red inscriptions with a faint red glow. Over nine feet long. The hilt was straight and bulky, with the base of the blade spanning over two feet in width. As it tapered toward the tip, the blade became narrower and ended in a sharp, cold, crimson point.
At the center of the sword's hilt, a marble about seventeen to eighteen centimeters in diameter was embedded, containing the little girl inside.
On each side of the core pearl, two words were imprinted in deep red, matching the patterns on the blade. One side read "Devil Slayer," and the other, "Heaven Smiting."
The Heaven Smiting Devil Slayer Sword!
"Heaven Smiting?! Could it be?!" Jasmine's expression changed drastically, a mix of shock and confusion crossing her face. She turned to Yun Wuji, but his face remained expressionless.
Yun Wuji walked up to the sword, placed his hand on the hilt, and casually grabbed it.
He lifted the sword with ease, swinging it through the air. The blade left behind a scarlet trajectory, a slash cutting through the space.
"Jasmine, help me—" Yun Wuji began to transmit to her to use the Soul Star Relegation, but before he could finish, Jasmine's voice suddenly echoed in his mind through soul transmission.
"Quick, drop your blood onto the sword... A drop is sufficient!" Her voice surprisingly was more anxious than his.
Yun Wuji was momentarily surprised by her shout, but he didn't hesitate. He quickly condensed a drop of blood from the tip of his finger and let it fall onto the scarlet greatsword.
As soon as the drop of blood touched the scarlet greatsword, Jasmine, standing behind Yun Wuji, quickly clasped her hands together, forming a strange hand seal. A deep, blood-red glow flashed from the center of her palm.
At that instant, the blood dripping down the sword halted, sinking into the core of the blade, where it vanished completely.
"Ehh? Why do I feel so weird?"
The girl sounded slightly confused as the scarlet greatsword flashed with red light and vanished. She reappeared, landing gracefully, and looked up at Yun Wuji, asking, "Big brother, why do I feel so weird?"
"Where do you feel weird?" Yun Wuji asked, his voice gentle.
"I don't know, I just feel... weird." She looked up at him with a serious expression before adding, "Ugh, I seem to like you more! Being liked by a super beauty like me, do you feel happy?"
"...Damn it, I can't even punish her with food," Yun Wuji's face darkened. He looked at her and said, "Little girl, don't talk nonsense. Little beauties who say things like that aren't cute."
"Really?" The little girl tilted her head, murmuring in wonder, then frowned and said, "Don't call me little girl. It doesn't sound nice at all!"
"What should I call you then?"
"Call... Call... Call me little beauty!"
"...You really don't remember your name?"
"Of course not, I already said I don't!"
"Then... How about I give you a name?"
"Name me?" The girl's eyes sparkled with excitement. "Okay, okay! But it has to be a nice and cute name that I like!"
"You have beautiful red hair, red eyes, and red clothes, so I'll call you Hong'er," Yun Wuji smiled at her and said.
"Hong'er... Hong'er... Hong'er... Hong'er..." The girl repeated the name several times, her eyes sparkling even brighter. She replied in high spirits, "Then, call me Hong'er next time... Hehe! I have a name! Hong'er, Hong'er... Next time, don't call me little girl, or little brat, not even little beauty. You can only call me Hong'er!"
"Hong'er, will you be very bored if you stay alone here?" Yun Wuji patted her head and asked.
"Hmm, it's very boring. I won't have anyone to have fun with, and I won't have any food!" Hong'er blinked her red eyes and rubbed her head against his hand like a kitten. She felt incredibly comfortable touching his hand, which was coated in a soft white light.
"Then do you want to go with me? If you let me use your sword, I'll play with you often and give you plenty of food every day," Yun Wuji said with a warm smile.
"Really? I'll have as much food as I want? And I can have fun too?" Hong'er blinked in surprise and asked.
"Right, I'll play with you, and this beautiful big sister will also play with you," Yun Wuji nodded, coaxing her.
"Hmph!" Jasmine blushed when she heard him call her beautiful and snorted.
"I want it, I want to go with you!" Hong'er eagerly held his hand and nodded her head.
"Alright, but you must be obedient to me in the future. If I want you to transform into a sword, you must do it, alright?" Yun Wuji looked at the innocent little girl and said.
"Hmm, Hong'er is the most obedient!" she replied proudly.
"Close your eyes, and for the next twenty seconds, no matter what I do to you, you're not allowed to resist! Simple, right?" Yun Wuji bent slightly, revealing a gentle smile as he spoke with an incomparable softness.
"Hmm, twenty seconds? Alright," Hong'er blinked her eyes. She found his request a bit strange, but the white light felt so warm and gentle. She didn't sense anything bad from him, so she quickly agreed.
As she closed her eyes, Yun Wuji condensed a blood pearl at the tip of his finger and gently tapped it to the center of Hong'er's forehead. In an instant, a small-scaled Contracted Profound Seal appeared at the center of her forehead.
After the Profound Contracted Seal, infused with Yun Wuji's drop of blood, rotated three times at the center of Hong'er's forehead, it entered her forehead with flawless success and completely disappeared.
In that short moment, a spiritual connection with Hong'er appeared in his soul with unparalleled clarity.
