Chapter 861: Let Her See

Mang Mei closed her eyes, not daring to look at him.

Their lips lightly touched, feeling each other's body heat.

But it was just a touch, and they immediately separated again, the whole process lasting less than one second.

That instant contact made Mang Mei tremble all over, as if she had been electrocuted, her body tensing up.

After Xiao Feng left, she unexpectedly opened her eyes, not expecting it to happen so quickly.

Her emerald-green elven eyes gazed at Xiao Feng, as if asking him something.

Xiao Feng smiled and said, "With Da Bai this lightbulb around, we'd better restrain ourselves a bit."

"Mm..."

Mang Mei replied with a sound, feeling a faint sense of loss, yet also as if she had let out a sigh of relief.

Her body relaxed considerably, a faint smile appearing at the corner of her mouth as she said to Xiao Feng, "There are still nine left… not ninety-nine thousand nine hundred ninety-nine."

"Is that so? Then alright." Xiao Feng chuckled, not bothering to argue with her about it.

"Such things are either zero times or countless times."

"I don't believe she can restrain herself to just ten kisses!"

"Where should we go now?" she asked, her shoulder lightly leaning against Xiao Feng's.

"Just wander around. You barely managed a breakthrough, you can rest for a day—consider it a vacation for yourself." Xiao Feng replied.

"Alright, then let's go see the scenery together." Mang Mei nodded slightly, a smile lifting the corners of her mouth.

Being able to be alone with Xiao Feng was also something that made her happy.

The mountains and rivers of Shen Jie are beautiful in scenery, the land vast and boundless.

However, they hardly ever had time to appreciate it, most of the time spent on tasks, tempering their will, or doing other important matters.

Now that they finally have a chance to relax, they can also ride their mount and jointly take in the landscape.

Da Bai flew at a moderate speed through the sky, not rushing anxiously, simply heading toward scenic directions.

Below, mountains and waters drifted by—one green hill after another, patches of green land, winding rivers flowing slowly past.

Some places were raining, some were sunny, and still others had many people fighting.

They flew far overhead, like travelers, not getting involved.

Mang Mei fell silent, saying nothing.

Or perhaps she didn't know what to say, just wanting to lean quietly against her older brother Xiao Feng, enjoying this rare chance to be alone together.

Xiao Feng sat beside her for a while, also enjoying this tranquility to some extent.

But he also felt that they were a little too distant from each other.

Thus he felt a sudden urge and said to Mang Mei, "Let's change where we sit."

"Huh? Where else can we sit?" Mang Mei looked puzzled.

Da Bai's back is broad, with plenty of places to sit, but switching around doesn't really make much difference.

In her doubtful gaze, Xiao Feng pointed to the base of the white crane's neck ahead and said, "Go sit there."

The immortal crane's neck is long and thick, about the same as an ordinary fine horse's back, suitable for straddling and riding.

Mang Mei didn't understand what he intended, but she obediently shuffled forward, sliding along the feathers onto Da Bai's neck.

Just as she had settled into her new position, Xiao Feng slid over as well, directly embracing her from behind, like two people riding a horse, pressed close together.

"This will do." Xiao Feng said with a smile.

"Er, this..."

Being embraced firmly from behind by him, Mang Mei's body tensed up again, feeling a bit flustered.

"Relax, we're just looking at the scenery." Xiao Feng's hands slipped past her sides and came to rest on her waist.

Breath after breath exhaled, blowing onto the back of Mang Mei's neck, she simply couldn't relax.

After nearly half an hour, during the scenery-viewing journey, she gradually came under the influence of the quiet atmosphere, no longer tense, and lightly leaned back against his chest.

The two rode the immortal crane together, crossing mountains and rivers, moving through the clouds.

Xiao Feng was quite honest, having done nothing wrong; he simply quietly held Mang Mei's slender waist, together they admired the world's beautiful scenery, enjoying this tranquil and comfortable journey.

Mang Mei also quickly grew fond of this warm feeling, so much so that she didn't even want to look at the scenery, closing her eyes and leaning entirely on him, just like in the real world—not using sight to perceive, but relying on hearing and touch to experience the alone time she had long awaited.

Da Bai also behaved sensibly this time, not nagging anymore, quietly playing the role of a mount, flying about aimlessly to gain some experience for itself.

Half an hour, one hour, two hours…

The two people and the crane said nothing.

Gradually, Xiao Feng discovered that Mang Mei had actually already fallen asleep in his arms, emitting even breaths, the corners of her mouth bearing a faint smile, not knowing whether she was having a pleasant dream.

"What a pitiful girl..."

Looking at Mang Mei's pure smile, a soft spot in Xiao Feng's heart was touched.

He secretly thought, "If only I could cure her eyes. I don't even know what caused her blindness, but if medicine can treat it, I'd spend any amount of money..."

Now he basically lacks no money; if there were a way to restore Mang Mei's sight, even several million, tens of millions, or even billions would not be a problem!

But… Mang Mei's eyes have been blind since birth, which probably isn't so simple. Even with today's advanced medical technology, there might still be nothing that can be done.

"Someday I'll take her to the hospital for a check-up; if that really doesn't work, I'll just cultivate diligently and see if the Book of Origins can help her!" Xiao Feng thought to himself.

The Book of Origins is a great field of study; not only can it be used to strengthen one's physique and power, but it can also create all things.

When the body absorbs sufficient energy and transforms to a certain extent, it can then gradually accumulate the surplus energy, storing it in the cells as "Myriad Origin Qi," to be released when needed.

Myriad Origin Qi is absorbed and transformed from the myriad things of the universe; as long as one's strength is sufficient and understanding deep enough, this process can also be reversed, turning Myriad Origin Qi back into the myriad things of the universe.

Naturally, this also includes creating flesh and blood, reshaping damaged bodily organs.

The principle is just that, and Xiao Feng understands it clearly.

But if one wants to achieve that, the demands on one's strength are also very high.

Perhaps…… one needs to reach the "Controller" realm said to be achieved after four million years of accompanying play, before being able to do that!

"Ah, keep training, I am still far from being a true expert." Xiao Feng sighed in his heart.

Luck begins to turn his self-created mental will tempering method; he accompanies Mang Mei on her travels while training his will.

In the game, he trains his mental will; offline, his body also cultivates the "Book of Origins", advancing both in tandem, allowing his strength to grow steadily.

Da Bai flew silently, its aura isolating them so that the strong winds at high altitude would not affect the two people on its back.

Mang Mei slept for a long time.

She was too tired.

Since she could remember, there had not been a single day when she could completely relax.

As a blind person who lost both eyes, she had suffered bullying from peers since childhood and endured much hardship.

Even when she grew a bit older, although the village children had gone off to study, there would still be some younger kids who specifically ran to her house to bully her; even with her grandmother's protection at home, this could not be completely eliminated.

After moving into Xiao Feng's home, the situation improved greatly.

But the feeling of always looking up to Xiao Feng also prevented her from relaxing, constantly driving her to seek greater strength.

Now, having broken through to become a god and achieved a major goal, together with Xiao Feng's attitude today, she finally could set her mind at ease and completely relax.

This deep sleep lasted eight hours before ending.

When she woke up, the two had already flown to the border of the Dragon Blood God Kingdom, about to fly out from the interlocking continental border.

Mang Mei opened her eyes; before her was nothing but void, and she couldn't help feeling a little panicked.

But the solid feeling transmitted from her back instantly reassured her.

"Brother Xiao Feng, let's go back." she said.

This journey has already left her feeling satisfied.

Xiao Feng nodded and said: "Good, then we won't use the teleport; we'll return the same way, flying back slowly."

"Good……"

Mang Mei felt delighted in her heart, secretly thinking she could again spend some time alone with him.

Da Bai, upon hearing this, snapped: "If you want to hug for another eight hours, just say so; stop pretending to be romantic!"

The two people on the bird's back instantly became awkward.

After a moment, Xiao Feng angrily said: "Shut your bird mouth! I'm picking up chicks, you damn well stop interrupting!"
