Chapter 392: Chapter 278 Ren Mian Gets Shocked_3
Ren Mian sat opposite him, glanced at Ji Xinghuo after hearing these words, and said, "Haven’t seen you in over a year, not only has your strength increased a lot, but your mouth has become sweeter too. Where did you learn that from?"
Ji Xinghuo’s heart skipped a beat, women’s intuition was too sharp!
However, his face revealed nothing unusual as he calmly replied, "I’ve always been like this."
"Really?" Ren Mian smiled slightly.
Ji Xinghuo couldn’t help feeling a bit guilty. Sister Ren had always been on Bloody Plateau, she probably hadn’t returned to Earth, and shouldn’t know about himself and Man Ying. But it was also uncertain; Sister Ren had a mysterious background, and even in Olympia, she had shown that she had access to information channels—she might have been keeping an eye on things all along.
He picked up a green fruit, crisply bit off a large chunk and chewed, masking his inner turmoil.
Fortunately, Ren Mian didn’t press further.
"When did you come to Bloody Plateau?" she asked. "How are Caiyi and Zhonglin now?"
Ji Xinghuo felt somewhat reassured upon hearing this.
Since Sister Ren was asking, it indicated that she probably didn’t know about what had happened on Earth, he replied, "I’ve been on the plateau for almost half a year now. Caiyi and Zhonglin are doing well, they both advanced to Super Mutants."
"And you?"
Ren Mian’s eyes were bright, intently looking at Ji Xinghuo, "When I left, you were still an Intermediate Mutant, but now you can kill a Legendary with a single arrow."
"The Star Gate has been open for two centuries, and Earth has never had someone like you."
She paused, then added, "Those so-called geniuses from history pale in comparison to you."
"Uh..."
Ji Xinghuo, feeling somewhat embarrassed by Ren Mian’s praise, said, "So Sister Ren appreciates me this much!"
"I’ve always had high hopes for you." Ren Mian chuckled softly, "Have you forgotten? The day we made our promise, I told you so, but your progress still astounds me. I knew you were good, but I didn’t expect you to be this good!"
As she spoke, she shook her head in disbelief.
Looking at Ji Xinghuo as if witnessing a rare treasure, she said, "Tell me about your experiences this past year."
"After you left Olympia, Caiyi and Zhonglin returned to Earth, and I went to Midpoint Fortress to become a Bounty Hunter..."
Ji Xinghuo roughly recounted his experiences.
Of course, he left out many details and didn’t mention his visit to Yunxiao City, keeping the secret of the Wanxiang Star Pupil all to himself.
He naturally didn’t reveal anything about Zhao Manying either.
He spoke up to his return from Earth to the Star Realm, arriving at Bloody Plateau, meeting his blood father Xia Qingyu, and afterward traveling to Eternal Day City.
What needed to be said was said; what shouldn’t be, was omitted.
Even so, Ren Mian was still greatly shocked after listening, exclaiming, "I had no idea you went through so much in just over a year; no wonder your strength has increased so tremendously. But it’s only you, with this courage and talent for adventure, who could do it. Anyone else would not even know how many times they’ve died."
"I’m just a little more talented than others, and put in a little more effort," Ji Xinghuo confidently said.
In his heart, he silently added: And I also have a cheat!
Ren Mian, unaware of Ji Xinghuo’s thoughts, nodded gently, her eyes full of agreement and admiration: "You deserve your current strength."
Ji Xinghuo was about to speak again when he suddenly looked out the window.
Qing Hong had shrunk to a little over half a meter long, resembling a small dog, frolicking in the garden outside the wooden house, snuffling here and there, then suddenly began barking at a bush, staring intently inside as if it had found something.
A slender, agile figure leapt from within, turned into a streak of light, and in the blink of an eye escaped from the garden into the wooden house, landing on Ren Mian’s head.
Then from within Ren Mian’s hair came a timid voice, "Sister, help me, there’s a monster biting me!"
