Chapter 490: What is the surprise?

The meaning implied by these words is already quite obvious.

"Really?"

Xiao Feng smiled slightly, lifted her chin, and asked.

He Er Na's face turned slightly red, she said shyly and angrily: "You know it in your heart, yet you still ask……"

After saying that, she leaned into his embrace again, whispering: "But let's wait a bit, don't rush. I've been feeling heavy lately, I also need to take it easy."

"Fine, I'm easygoing—whatever you say works." Xiao Feng replied, smiling, in a good mood.

The goddess in hand certainly won't run away; you can eat her whenever you want.

For now, we should first set up the environment needed to cultivate the Origin Book, then make a trip back to the lower realm to check on Dai Ni Si and Mi Nie Ya.

He's been in the Divine Realm for two or three days; if he doesn't go back, the Little Wealth God will probably wait until he's depressed.

"By the way, what was the surprise you said you'd give me earlier?" He recalled He Er Na's earlier words and asked.

At first he thought this surprise was her offering herself willingly.

But judging from her later behavior, it seems not.

When he asked that, He Er Na also recalled, saying: "It's like this, Master—actually Wind Spirit Island hides a great secret, and only I know it now. This secret is terrifying; if it got out, even the Supreme God would go crazy!"

The Supreme God would go crazy?

"What is it?"

Xiao Feng's interest was instantly piqued, and he asked curiously.

He Er Na didn't speak it aloud; instead, she responded via mental communication.

"Master, do you still remember when I told you about the many mysterious powerhouses in the Elemental Sea?" she asked first.

Xiao Feng nodded: "Of course I remember—you said those people fight and kill in the Myriad Heavens Battlefield, they are immensely strong, and after growing tired of battle they return to the Elemental Sea to retire. There are plenty of Supreme God-level experts, even those surpassing Supreme Gods."

"Exactly, that's the kind of person!"

He Er Na said: "Wind Spirit Island was once occupied by such a powerhouse, but that was a very long time ago; I only discovered it after staying here for over eight hundred years."

Over eight hundred years before discovering it……

So the traces must be buried deep.

"What good stuff did that powerhouse leave behind?" Xiao Feng asked her.

Since it's called a surprise, it must definitely be beneficial to qualify as a surprise.

If merely knowing

that this land once had a glorious history, what kind of surprise is that? At most it's just a story!

He Er Na nodded and replied: "That ancient powerhouse left a seed here; I've studied it for a long time but couldn't make it sprout. Yet I discovered it can absorb energy—just carrying it on your person reduces injury taken in battle considerably."

"Huh, there's such a thing?" Xiao Feng exclaimed in surprise.

A seed carried on the body can absorb damage, absorb energy.

Does such a seed exist in the world?

How tough must it be!

A God-level expert's battle, even a ripple can instantly obliterate the Holy Realm.

If a seed absorbs too much energy, it will surely turn to ashes on the spot.

He Er Na explained: "I also don't know its origin, but I feel it must be very formidable. In recent decades fighting the Red Horn King, I've relied on that seed, as well as my companions' help, to not fall behind; otherwise I wouldn't be his match."

Xiao Feng's curiosity was fully aroused; he hurriedly said: "Bring it over, let me take a look—maybe we players can directly understand its function!"

Players and NPCs are different; players have many privileges.

Especially regarding item information, basically you can know all its effects at a glance, no need for "identification".

"Master, come with me."

He Er Na said that, rose from his embrace, and led him forward up the mountain.

Previously she had to go to Zhu Shen Da Lu and couldn't carry too much, so she left that seed at home.

The two returned to the mountainside, and He Er Na, as they walked, introduced him to who lived in these houses.

There are about seven or eight houses on the mountainside, staggered up and down, distributed in the same area.

Those around are the residences of several other Wind Spirit Island high-ranking figures, among them two Upper Gods and four Middle Gods.

He Er Na and Dai Ni Si mother and daughter live together, not far from the council hall, in an elegant wooden house with three rooms, a gauze curtain as the door, walls covered in flowering vines, very beautiful.

Among the two Upper Gods, "Bei Ni" is second only to He Er Na in seniority, but she was already killed on Holy Flame Island.

The other is named "Bing Lu"; previously she suffered heavy injuries, her divine essence damaged, still not recovered, she has been recuperating in a secluded forest on Wind Spirit Island, so her house is also empty.

Speaking of residences, He Er Na casually asked Xiao Feng whether he needed her to build him a house as well.

Xiao Feng decisively

shook his head: "No need, I don't have many demands for lodging; sleeping in your room is fine."

This made He Er Na blush so much she stammered: "No, no, if others found out, I wouldn't……"

She hadn't finished speaking when she herself fell into contemplation.

Because she recalled that while soothing the girls' emotions earlier, she had also inadvertently told them she had acknowledged a master.

Everyone reacted somewhat strongly, but under her firm insistence they still accepted this outcome.

Since everyone already knows she has a master, living together like this doesn't seem so outrageous……

So she didn't continue speaking.

Xiao Feng still thought she was worried about something, and explained: "Actually I don't need sleep, I won't really stay in your room. If you don't want me entering your room, we can go elsewhere to be intimate—like in the woods, on the grassland, deep in the mountains, and so on……"

"Master, don't say that……"

He Er Na didn't expect him to be so direct; her mind involuntarily imagined the scene he described, and she instantly blushed all over her face.

"Okay, okay, not saying, not saying." Xiao Feng laughed loudly.

While speaking, the two had already arrived inside the house.

He Er Na led him into the room; inside, a fresh floral fragrance welled up and blew over them.

One couldn't tell what the scent was, but it was extremely fragrant, making people feel refreshed and delighted, even causing a slight urge to drool.

The furnishings in the room were very simple, just some plain tables and chairs. The bed was wooden, a bit crude, making Xiao Feng wonder whether it could withstand his tossing and turning.

He Er Na went straight to a cabinet upon entering the room, saying, "My room usually has no visitors, so I just leave things lying around. Master, look, this is it."

Then she took out an olive-shaped seed from one of the cabinet's drawers.

This seed is dark brown; aside from the color, it is basically indistinguishable from an olive.

Yet when held in hand, it feels remarkably heavy—at least fifteen or sixteen catties!

Xiao Feng glanced at the information and was instantly shocked.
