Primordial Cultivator-Chapter 300 - Heaven Devouring Abyss
"Thanks," Yang Wei said to Zhu Wenqian when she dragged him back after his blunder.
He was blind-sighted for a brief moment when he saw the giant egg in the middle and forgot that his surroundings were still in a sub-zero degree.
Meanwhile, Zhu Wenqian curled her lips upward.
"You've finally said something that this queen wants to hear." Zhu Wenqian teased.
Yang Wei smiled bitterly. 'Is my impression really that bad for her?' He wondered silently.
Sometime later, Zhu Wenqian used her spiritual perception and sensed the temperature was unbearable near the giant egg.
She then retracted her spiritual perception and glanced at Yang Wei..
"If we take a step forward like what you did then there are high chances that we could turn into an ice statue." Zhu Wenqian said.
Yang Wei nodded his head.
Just the cold air that is oozing out from the giant egg was enough to give subtle information about the temperature in this particular room.
"What do you suggest we do to bypass the cold temperature, Zhu Wenqian?" Yang Wei asked.
Despite her behavior and attitude, Yang Wei was sure that Zhu Wenqian's knowledge was more profound than his.
After all, her display of toying with human life and her devilish look was enough to convince him that she was not as simple as she looks on the surface.
Zhu Wenqian rubbed her chin slightly, almost like she was pondering over a solution.
"Hmm. I don't know Yang Wei…Lately, my stomach has been rumbling so much that my brain cells seem to be lacking a lot." Zhu Wenqian said and patted her stomach.
Yang Wei twitched his mouth. "You are unbelievable…"
"Thank you very much." Zhu Wenqian gladly took his words as a compliment for herself.
As a queen, being unbelievable and unpredictable is the best trait ever since no one should understand the mindset of a queen.
"Fine, I will cook those Jagged Tigers for you." Yang Wei said as he gave in to her demand.
It wasn't like he wasn't going to cook food anyway so it was a win-win situation for the both of them.
However, in Zhu Wenqian's eyes, this was her victory against Yang Wei for once.
"Hehe, now aren't you being a good boy. This queen likes it very much." Zhu Wenqian said with a smug expression on her face.
Yang Wei ignored her smug look as he rushed her to quickly solve the situation. Otherwise, he would make sure to lower her portion of the food.
"The more you delay, the more meat I will take for myself and leave you with very little meat." Yang Wei threatened.
Zhu Wenqian's face turned ashen white as she quickly nodded her head.
"Take three steps back." Zhu Wenqian warned as she took out some sort of oval-shaped item in her storage ring.
Yang Wei nodded his head.
He then took three steps back away from Zhu Wenqian as he waited for her next action.
"Watch carefully but don't admire me too much." Zhu Wenqian laughed heartily.
Although she was still teasing for a moment, her expression quickly turned solemn as she injected her Saint Qi at the oval-shaped item.
The oval-shaped item began blinking a dim but subtle light.
However, despite the dim light, Yang Wei could feel the atmosphere around them slowly changing.
The cold temperature began to subside, almost like it was being absorbed by the oval-shaped item at a rapid pace. 𝗳𝐫𝘦e𝘸𝗲𝚋𝓃𝚘v𝘦𝘭.𝑐𝒐m
"Yang Wei, when I say go, you will walk ahead 5 steps then turn to the left and take 10 steps." Zhu Wenqian instructed.
Yang Wei nodded his head.
"Understood, just tell me when to move," he replied.
Sometime later, Zhu Wenqian shouted loudly and threw the oval-shaped item up.
"Now, Yang Wei." Zhu Wenqian said.
Hearing her command, Yang Wei quickly took 5 steps ahead and turned toward his left side.
After stopping at the 10th step, Yang Wei felt like he had pressed on a pressure plate as the cold temperature and cold air vanished completely.
"Phew, that was exhausting." Zhu Wenqian said as she grabbed the oval-shaped item and stored it in her storage ring.
The room temperature had turned warm so Zhu Wenqian stopped the barrier around her as she walked toward Yang Wei.
"Am I amazing?" Zhu Wenqian asked him.
Yang Wei nodded his head. "Indeed, how did you cause the cold temperature to vanish?"
Since Zhu Wenqian's display of skills was truly fascinating. Yang Wei wasn't going to deny her and instead, admitted her capability is indeed peerless.
Zhu Wenqian was also surprised by Yang Wei's response as she expected him to deny her.
Nevertheless, she was glad that Yang Wei wasn't some hypocrite and would admit that others can be stronger than him.
"The oval-shaped item you saw is Heaven Devouring Abyss." Zhu Wenqian said.
"It's a Celestial Rank item- one that everyone is eager to have in their hand." She added.
'How are you going to react, Yang Wei?' Zhu Wenqian wondered silently as she waited for him to reply.
To her dismay, Yang Wei simply nodded his head.
"I see… no wonder it was able to make the cold temperature vanish." Yang Wei mumbled as he walked toward the giant egg.
Zhu Wenqian became dumbfounded and raised her eyebrow in confusion.
"T-That's it? That's your response when I said the Heaven Devouring Abyss is a Celestial Rank item?" Zhu Wenqian stuttered.
Whenever she mentioned this item to someone, they would always show greed in their eyes as they would do anything to steal the item from her.
However, she was in disbelief when Yang Wei showed a nonchalant expression at her revelation.
Meanwhile, Yang Wei halted his movement and looked at her in a funny way.
"What did you want me to say?" Yang Wei asked. "That you have an awesome item in your hand and that I should be jealous of you?"
"Aren't you going to try to steal it for yourself?"
"Why would I do that? The item isn't mine, to begin with." Yang Wei smirked as he continued walking toward the giant egg.
