Chapter 2390: Holy Maiden
“What’s your name?” Ning Shu asked again.
“Why don’t you tell me what’s your name first?” the girl mischievously replied.
“Xiao Hei, how about you?”
“My senior brothers call me Xiao Rou.”
“What’s your surname?”
“I don’t have a surname.”
Xiao Rou… Yi Rou?
Ning Shu looked at Xiao Rou, trying to find any special marks and marks on her body.
There was a small red mole on the corner of Xiao Rou’s eye.
Ning Shu took note of this feature.
“Why haven’t I seen you before?” Ning Shu asked. “I’ve been here at Yinyang Sect for a while.”
Xiao Rou was elated by Ning Shu’s arrival. “My master and senior brothers told me to stay in the room and cultivate.”
In addition to her master and brothers, there was only a maid who served her in close proximity.
This was the first time that Xiao Rou had seen an outsider. Moreover, it was an animal. An animal that could talk, at that.
So she was clearly a little excited.
“Brothers? How many brothers do you have?” Ning Shu felt a strange feeling inwardly.
“Five, I’m Master’s youngest disciple,” Xiao Rou replied truthfully.
Ning Shu’s strange feeling became stronger. She asked again, “Why don’t they let you go out?”
“Master said that the outside world is too dangerous. I can’t go out until I’m strong enough,” Xiao Rou whispered, afraid that the maid outside would hear it.
“What kind of spiritual roots do you have?”
“Me? I have heavenly spiritual roots.”
Ning Shu narrowed her eyes. Heavenly spiritual roots were the kind of spiritual root that was above all five of the elemental spiritual roots. It was even more special than the thunder spiritual roots.
No wonder the Yinyang Sect was reluctant to turn her into a furnace. To make a furnace out of a person with such spiritual roots would be like turning a diamond into a pebble.
If she didn’t end up dying, she’d be a shining powerhouse in the future.
Ning Shu asked again, “Do you have any other family members?”
“Why do you have so many questions? It’s my turn to ask you questions now. What are you?”
“I am a fox.”
“How did you get here?
“How come you can talk?
“How did you get so dirty? Do you want me to wash the dirt clean for you?
“Are you hungry? Do you want something to eat?”
Xiao Rou picked up the dessert on the table and stretched her hand out to Ning Shu. “Here.”
Ning Shu glanced at her and ate the dessert in her hand. Xiao Rou suddenly laughed. Her eyes were curved, and she looked very pure.
“Do you want to go out?” Ning Shu asked Xiao Rou.
Xiao Rou shook her head. “I don’t want to go out. My master and senior brothers told me that I can only go out after I become strong.”
Ning Shu wrinkled her nose, but she did not give up and asked again, “Don’t you yearn for a life outside?”
“Not really. My master and senior brothers always bring me fun and delicious things. They’d also tell me stories.”
Xiao Rou pointed to a cabinet, which was full of toys, including dolls, clay figurines, and all kinds of children’s toys.
Ning Shu: …
Xiao Rou probably didn’t realize that she was imprisoned, with only one master and five senior brothers by her side.
She might not have been made into a cultivation furnace, but just like the others, she was mentally imprisoned.
