BXBX NOVEL Chapter 58 - 58. Ruby Star Stone
Since earlier Fu Xie Lan\'s focus had been divided, everything that happened to her had become even more confusing. Who was the person in the memory that didn\'t belong to her earlier? And why did Huang Bao bring her to a place like this?
Looking at the various kinds of trees, Fu Xie Lan\'s memory returned to the mysterious message addressed to her yesterday afternoon. Ruby star stone, is that true, or is it just a trap? She didn\'t know.
"Emm, may I ask first, Teacher?" said Fu Xie Lan.
"Yes, you can. Let\'s ask anything. I haven\'t spoken to anyone for a very long time," Xiao Ying said immediately answering a question that was not addressed to him.
"Do you know anything about the ruby star stone?"
Suddenly Wan Lie saw his mother, while the two old men at the same time also looked at each other.
"Ruby star stone?" asked Huang Bao to make his ears clear.
While Xiao Ying stared fixedly at Fu Xie Lan, no one knew what he was thinking.
"Yes, Teacher do you know something about that? "Asked Fu Xie Lan again repeated.
"Hmm, how do you know about that stone?" now it was Xiao Ying\'s turn to ask.
"We heard it from someone, is there a problem?" said Wan Lie previous of Fue Xie Lan, who had already opened her mouth to speak.
"The stone is not a ..." Huang Bao replied then cleared his throat softly.
"It\'s not non-existent, it\'s just that no one has seen it before," Xiao Ying added cutting Huang Bao\'s words.
"I have heard the ancient ancestors tell about the stone, I do not know whether this is true or not, but it is said that the stone is the inheritance of the Elf. If my memory is still correct, if I\'m not mistaken something happened to the stone until it split into eight pieces, and not long after the stone was split, the Elfs and their entire territory could no longer be found. The story was only known to the ancestors and was not widely spread, so people only know that the race became extinct because it was unable to protect itself, "explained Huang Bao
"Little Xie Lan, why do you want to know about that stone? Isn\'t perfects your soul more important than just searching for unknown stones," said Xiao Ying.
Since the first time he saw the girl who was his friend\'s student, he had known that something was wrong with him. And he made it clearer when the girl touched his wand. The mana flow he felt was so passionate but still so weak as if something was holding him back.
While Huang Bao who heard that immediately cursed himself, why he could have forgotten that he had friends with such abilities. Yes, Xiao Ying can detect a person\'s mental state through just his staff.
Hearing Xiao Ying\'s words, Fu Xie Lan became excited.
"Grandpa, do you know anything about the seal on my body?" she asked with a happy face remembering that Wan Lie and Elder Bao had never mentioned the seal.
Suddenly Xiao Ying looked at Huang Bao with furrowed brows and then looked back at Fu Xie Lan.
"We\'d better go in first, it\'s rude if my first guest in hundreds of years is just standing here," said Xiao Ying then turned around and started walking towards the path that led to her castle.
The three of them nodded and followed behind.
At this time Wan Lie could only surrender. Although he hid everything. Sooner or later his mother would find out, while on the other hand Huang Bao again felt pity and seemed unwilling if the life span of the girl whom he had considered as a student was only limited to the event of the Silver Blood Moon.
The reason Wan Lie and Huang Bao didn\'t tell Fu Xie Lan about the soul cover rune seal on her body was that they didn\'t want the girl to feel hopeless with her life.
"Did Huang Bao not tell you at all?" Whispered Xiao Ying who suddenly matched his steps with that of Fu Xie Lan, his head slightly raised given his extremely short body and only reached half the girl\'s body. Wan Lie and Huang Bao just stayed behind and followed the two of them.
"Huh? What do you mean grandfather? Tell me what is it?" Fu Xie Lan replied with a question.
"Hmm," Xiao Ying exhaled roughly. The guess is correct. The old man did not tell Fu Xie Lan\'s true state.
"Are you sure? Maybe you will regret it after finding out."
"Tell me, everything grandfather," replied Fu Xie Lan as quickly as possible.
"Then stop calling me grandpa, I\'m not that old yet," said Xiao Ying
Huang Bao was embarrassed by the words of his friend, who always felt young. Even though the white hair already filled his chin and head, and it was enough to make it clear that the old man smelled of dirt.
"Call me uncle or a teacher is okay. Hehehe I would be happy if I have someone..."
"Alright Uncle," interrupted Fu Xie Lan. Huang Bao who walked behind the two only chuckled but was ignored by Xiao Ying at all.
Now that they had entered the castle, the mild air made Fu Xie Lan feel very comfortable. Being in a small space, Xiao Ying created several chairs and tables using magic and then invited the three of them to sit down.
"So, can you tell us a little about how your body got that seal?" Xiao Ying asked starting after a few seconds of silence.
This time Huang Bao chose to speak and told everything to Xiao Ying. How did he initially meet Fu Xie Lan until making him a student. Of course, he did not say anything about making the girl a student because a pity, he did not want to hurt the little girl\'s heart.
"Hmm, fairy half-human did you say?" asked Xiao Ying. His hand stroked his long beard.
"Looks like you\'re wrong this time," chuckled Xiao Ying after hearing Huang Bao\'s story.
"I can\'t felt mana half-human from her body," he added.
"If I may describe it, if her body didn\'t have that seal then the combined power of all third-tier wizards wouldn\'t be enough just to injure her."
Hearing this, Huang Bao was stunned to feel a little disbelief at Xiao Ying\'s words. But indeed from the start, he felt unusual with Fu Xie Lan.
"So, what should I do to remove the seal on my body Uncle?" asked Fu Xie Lan.
"You have less than six months to break free from that seal. If you fail, then by the time the Silver Blood Moon occurs you will likely disappear and not be able to reincarnate again," explained Xiao Ying with a single breath.
Hearing the silver blood moon, Fu Xie Lan suddenly thought of something. The mysterious message she received yesterday afternoon also mentioned the silver blood moon, is that message true? So she considered telling the two old men about the contents of the message she had received.
The three of them looked at Fu Xie Lan closely, no expression on her face showed any despair at all. And it made Wan Lie and Huang Bao feel a little relieved.
"Uncle, do you trust me?" asked Fu Xie Lan wanted to confirm first, the question she asked was not without reason because previously the two men seemed to not believe in the existence of the ruby star stone.
Since earlier, Wan Lie had been silent, while Huang Bao only spoke occasionally when needed.
"Why do you ask like that?" asked Xiao Ying.
