XIAO SHUXIANG'S

8 - Feng Ying Weird [Revised]

Jing Mi was amazed when she saw Xiao Shuxiang wearing the same uniform as her, "Waaah... My brother! That uniform really fits you! Now you are officially the eleventh disciple of the Butterfly Sect!"

"Really, right! You look cool Brother Xiao!" praise Hou Yong with sparkling eyes.

Xiao Shuxiang rubbed the tip of his nose with his right index finger while smiling proudly. "Of course, I'm Xiao Shuxiang!"

Xiao Lu was seen puffing his lips as he watched his younger brother continue to receive praise from his fellow students.

"She was adorable and sweet in that outfit, but I was still much sweeter and adorable than her!" Xiao Lu grumbled softly, deeply dislikeful as Xiao Shuxiang received much praise from his friends.

Xiao Lu then shook Yang Shu's hand, "Grandfather? You think Xiao'Er is more adorable than me?"

Yang Shu smiled gently towards her grandson, she then gently rubbed Xiao Lu's head while saying. "You two are both adorable. But Lu'Er is the most beautiful!"

Xiao Lu smiled happily at the compliment, his cheeks even turning red. "of course! I am the most beautiful!!"

Yang Shu restrained her smile upon seeing her granddaughter so very happy to be praised, she then walked over to Xiao Shuxiang as well as her other disciples.

"You all warm up! Grandpa has to fix the hut first. Qi Xuan, it's your turn to train today!" Yang Shu gently rubbed Qi Xuan's shoulder.

"Okay Elders!"

As long as Yang Shu fixed his collapsed hut, Qi Xuan directed his friends to follow him through doing warm-up moves.

The warm-up movement he taught was quite simple, just relaxing the muscles of the legs, hands, head, and wagging the waist.

The next warm-up movement is a push-up with the help of a friend, where a friend sits cross-legged on the back of his friend who does push-ups.

After rolling on the ground 20 times, Qi Xuan finally directed his friends to practice his sect sword techniques.

Jing Mi was so excited, she jumped up and down. "Wuuuh! I'm already so hot! Really hot!!"

Hou Yong pum thus, "Quick do it! Hurry along! I'm ready!"

!?

Xiao Shuxiang blinked a few times as he looked at the behavior of these two children beside him. "Hot from where...? I have not been reminded at all! Haaah... Seriously, what kind of sect am I actually attending?"

"Everything! Get ready in position!" Qi Xuan directed.

There were five of his friends who were at the front, they were Hai Feng, Yi Wen, Ro Wei, Feng Ying, and Zhi Shu. The ones behind them were Xiao Lu, Hou Yong, Jing Mi, Xiao Shuxiang, and Bao Yu.

Qi Xuan demonstrated the sword technique that Xiao Shuxiang had seen before. Right, the sword technique of Qi Xuan was the same as Xiao Lu's sword technique.

"She's more talented than that chatty girl..." Xiao Shuxiang was actually quite happy because he had not held a sword for three days. Merely, the sword he was holding was not as heavy as the sword he was used to.

"One!" Qi Xuan exclaimed.

The position of his right foot was being tethered, while his hind legs were straight, the sole of Qi Xuan's back foot was slanting outwards, his weight was piled on the front leg with a well-built body, a straight look with the sword drawn forward.

Qi Xuan began to demonstrate the other two sword moves, namely the crossed sword movement and the rotating body movement that ended with the left leg knee position in front and touching the ground, while the right leg is bent with the body following the sword to the side.

Qi Xuan was so excited about doing all three of those sword moves. After he finished demonstrating the three movements, he collapsed with his body facing the sky. Not only himself, but his other companions did the same, this incident left Xiao Shuxiang stunned.

Jing Mi and Hou Yong gasped for breath, even so they showed a delighted look on their faces.

Jing Mi smiled in satisfaction, "I-it was so cool! I've never demonstrated such a fast movement before..."

"I just broke my record!" Hou Yong did not want to lose.

Xiao Shuxiang scratched his non-itchy head. Although the movements of Qi Xuan and his companions were fast, yet he was able to follow their movements. It's just that he did not feel tired at all like his fellow students.

"Aiii, they look like they have demonstrated thousands of moves only. Hey, are you okay?" Xiao Shuxiang sat beside Jing Mi, he patted the arm of the boy who was currently lying down with his eyes closed.

Jing Mi opened her eyes slowly, she was already able to catch her breath well now. "I'm fine Brother Xiao,"

He changed his posture to sit cross-legged, "But you don't look as exhausted as we do? Your strength may as well, Brother Xiao!" Jing Mi looked at Xiao Shuxiang as she patted her back slowly.

Xiao Shuxiang smiled faintly in reply. He asked again, "Would any of your exercises feel exhausted like this?"

Hou Yong heard him, "We are already ordinary Brother Xiao, this kind of training is tough but we can do it!"

He fixed his position and then walked squat to where Xiao Shuxiang was. Hou Yong then sat right between the 7-year-old boy and Jing Mi.

He fixed his position to sit cross-legged. While practicing vigorously and exertion just now-Qi Xuan could feel Qi gathering around his body, because that was how much he wanted to absorb it. It could be that his practice level had increased to a third level Forging Qi.

Xiao Shuxiang watched as Qi Xuan concentrated, "Most cultivators would rather improve his practice in an instant way that was to absorb spirit stones or demonic cores, rather than having to put in a lot of effort to manually improve his practice. For a kid who lives in a place with a thin Qi, that kid is talented!"

Meanwhile, Xiao Lu stood up and took a place some distance away from his companions. He still wanted to continue his sword technique.

On the other hand, Yi Wen turned his head towards Hai Feng and Bao Yu, "Come on. We have to find food for dinner tonight."

The two friends nodded, and then walked away from the others.

Zhi Shu and Ro Wei themselves went to meet Yang Shu, the two girls wanted to ask permission to go look for fruits in the forest. Yang Shu allowed it if they didn't go too far. Compared to Yi Wen, Zhi Shu and Ro Wei were submissive children.

Xiao Shuxiang could see, that the person other than Xiao Lu who was going to be included in the young cultivator tournament by Yang Shu was Qi Xuan.

Jing Mi, "Brother, let's find a place to rest. We mustn't bother Brother Xuan!" he invited Xiao Shuxiang and Hou Yong and Feng Ying to find a comfortable place like under a tree.

Xiao Shuxiang nodded, he followed Jing Mi. Yet for some reason but as long as they walked, Feng Ying always docked towards him.

"This kid won't bite my hand again, will he?" Xiao Shuxiang looked anxiously at Feng Ying, but the boy just kept quiet as he continued to close his body.

Although he always took some distance, it was still that Feng Ying was docked towards him. It feels a bit stressful.

Hou Yong laughed, he then gently patted Xiao Shuxiang on the shoulder. "Ha ha ha, just calm down Brother Xiao! This little Feng is still too young to eat people."

"So you mean when this kid's older, he can eat me, right?" xiao Shuxiang's remark made Jing Mi and Hou Yong choke. Both of them thought about what had just happened.

!?

Hou Yong realized that he had mispronounced, "I-I don't mean that. My point is Brother Feng's stomach is too small to hold you,"

Xiao Shuxiang narrowed his eyes, "So if his stomach is big he can eat me?"

"Tsk, Brother Hou!" Jing Mi snatched Hou Yong's head, "You don't talk that way,"

He then gently rubbed Feng Ying's head as he stared smilingly and looked at Xiao Shuxiang, "Brother, don't worry. Until at any time, Feng Ying will not eat you!"

Xiao Shuxiang laughed bitterly, he then looked at Jing Mi deeply. His face looked anxious because the words of these two children seemed ambiguous to him. "That means you want to say that other than me, this kid can eat other people, right?"

!!

Jing Mi and Hou Yong patted hard on their foreheads upon hearing Xiao Shuxiang's words just now. "God...! I mean, that's not so, brother! This little Feng Ying will not eat you! And he won't eat anyone else, really?!"

Hou Yong patted Feng Ying's shoulders softly, smiling with a face that seemed to ask for a definite answer. "He's a good boy, it's impossible to do that. Isn't that right, Brother Feng?

"......"

Feng Ying looked at Xiao Shuxiang, her eyes were so innocent. He tilted his head slightly while continuing to watch the 7-year-old boy.

"......"

Both Jing Mi, Hou Yong, and Xiao Shuxiang subconsciously followed the slanting movements of Feng Ying's head. A slow murmur then came out of his mouth. The mutter that made the three children who were looking at him gasp in shock.

"Hungry..."

"Look, right! He wants to eat me?!" Xiao Shuxiang pointed at Feng Ying. It made Jing Mi and Hou Yong stare deeply at the 5-year-old.

"Brother Feng? You really want to eat Brother Xiao?" hou Yong and Jing Mi asked almost simultaneously.

"Hungry..." Feng Ying only gave a plain look at the eyes.

!

After noticing Feng Ying more thoroughly, Jing Mi began to remember that all along the word that came out of the little boy was the word, 'Hunger'. "Ehm... This child can only say the word 'Hunger', not that he will eat you Brother Xiao..."

Xiao Shuxiang was still in disbelief, "But he looked at me like that.." he also started researching the look on Feng Ying's face.

Hou Yong watched carefully the face of Feng Ying who was so flat with his innocent innocent eyes, "This little Feng has always been staring at us like this as well. You don't worry Brother Xiao. Seeing you worried makes me anxious too."
