BXBX NOVEL Chapter 117 - 117. Rest For A While
"Don\'t overdo it, you perverted master."
And then both of them smiled without them knowing.

They then left Kanca City at noon. As usual, Fu Xie Lan was with Gu Yi, and Huang Bao was with Wan Lie. While the remaining two people are together. Luckily Ju Xian was a tier two mage and was able to control his wand to fly.
Xue Ning and Ju Xian had decided to follow Fu Xie Lan wherever she went. They don\'t care about any dangers that they will face later. The two of them did this because they had the same reason, which was that they had no place to return to.
For the first time, Xue Ning flew. The girl was nauseous and vomited all the contents of her stomach in the air. Even Ju Xian had a little trouble taking the girl with him.
Seeing that, Fu Xie Lan asked Gu Yi to equalize their position and fly closer to the four people.
"Teacher, we should rest for a while," shouted Fu Xie Lan in such a high tone of voice. The wind blowing in the opposite direction made her voice a little heavy.
After saying that, she asked Gu Yi to land where he thought was suitable to rest for a while before returning to continue the journey. Even though the City of Phillony was visible from their current position. However, she is feeling a little sorry for Xue Ning, she chose to rest for a while.
They flew low and landed on a rather spacious ground, precisely on the edge of a lake in the middle of the forest.
The area was included in the territory of the wizard race, harmless and sometimes a place for some wizards to hunt or just to train the level of their magic power.
Landing her feet on the ground, Fu Xie Lan immediately approached Xue Ning who was already looking very weak and tried to support her body towards the oak tree that stood firmly on the edge of the lake.
The sun was shining, Fu Xie Lan then went to fetch water for Xue Ning by the lake to prevent her from becoming dehydrated. Xue Ning was not a tier two wizard who could protect her body from the fierceness of nature such as the scorching heat of the sun, or the extreme changes in the weather.
Even though they had never taken the pury test, those who saw Xue Ning could immediately tell the level of the girl\'s magic just by feeling the mana in her.
Fu Xie Lan also didn\'t know what her current level of strength was, she didn\'t feel hungry and thirsty anymore, only her body occasionally felt very tired. Maybe because of her human body.
"How are you feeling now?" asked Fu Xie Lan after Xue Ning drank the water that was given to her.
"Sorry, I troubled you guys," Xue Ning said feeling guilty.
"Rest for a while, and don\'t talk let alone burden your mind with useless things like you said earlier," Fu Xie Lan replied then jumped onto a large and very sturdy-looking tree branch using the mana concentrated under her heels.
Hearing that, Xue Ning let out a rough breath and corrected her sitting position to relax her body a little.
Wan Lie sat leaning on a tree branch next to Fu Xie Lan, Huang Bao, and Ju Xian, the two people chose to stay down there and leaned around the tree near Xue Ning.
As for Gu Yi, the man was already next to Fu Xie Lan, sitting there too.
A gentle breeze blows slowly carrying the distinctive aroma of forest plants, moving agilely blowing everyone\'s hairs, and giving a very calming cool sensation.
With a leaning position, Fu Xie Lan moved her hands to play with the tendrils of the plants around her to reduce boredom.
Maybe this is the last time to relax, because, after this, she will start her journey to collect the eight pieces of ruby star stone.
Suddenly she remembered something, she immediately jumped to the ground right beside Huang Bao and managed to make the old man startle in surprise.
"Sorry Teacher," said Fu Xie Lan and sat down next to the old man. While Gu Yi, the man did not move from his position and only watched the girl from the branch.
"It\'s okay, is something bothering you?" asked Huang Bao.
"I want to ask Teacher something," she said then took out a brown scroll that was the size of her palm and handed it to Huang Bao.
"What is this?" asked Huang Bao feeling confused when he opened the scroll and all he found was empty.
Fu Xie Lan forgot one thing, There has to be a mix of light and dark to be able to read the writing on the scroll. Not in a place that is only bright like now, nor on a night without a light.
"Ah, I-I\'m sorry, Teacher."
The girl then told everything that happened that night when someone bumped into her suddenly and also the writing on the brown scroll.
Everyone who heard Fu Xie Lan\'s explanation was silent. Although Xue Ning and Ju Xian did not understand all of Fu Xie Lan\'s words at all, they did not ask about the meaning of those words either. Perhaps because they felt that they had no right to know everything about Xie Lan, so they chose to remain silent and be good listeners.
"Human race? Really?" said Huang Bao in a slightly raised voice, perhaps from surprise. His eyes immediately fell on Gu Yi who was watching the two behind the hood he was wearing.
Seeing that Lord Gu Yi had no response after hearing Fu Xie Lan\'s words, he returned to normalize his expression and calmed his feelings.
"Are you not wrong? The human race?" asked Huang Bao again to confirm.
Fu Xie Lan nodded. Meanwhile, Wan Lie, who was originally leaning against a tree, now sat up straight, listening to the conversation of the two people who were not far from him.
"So you\'re going to human territory?" asked Huang Bao as if he still had not received the girl\'s words.
"Before I didn\'t believe in that thing. But since I received the message for the second time, it doesn\'t seem like it\'s a joke."
"Teacher, this is also the only chance for me to break the seal" she added.
"But, kid. I can\'t follow you into the territory given my growing responsibilities at the academy due to the pury test incident a few days ago," Huang Bao replied with a sigh.
"I also didn\'t ask the Teacher to follow me into the Human territory. Don\'t worry, I have Ju Xian, Wan Lie, and Xue Ning with me."
"Me too." Gu Yi suddenly jumped up and landed right beside Fu Xie Lan.
"Yes. And that perverted man," added Fu Xie Lan again.
