Chapter 19: Going out to hunt
The afternoon passed in a flash.

After finishing Teacher Zhao’s practical class, the students went home one after another, and Fanxing was no exception.

As usual, Fanxing stopped by the supermarket to buy vegetables on her way home.

However, when she was buying groceries, she was surprised to find that the skull-splitting butcher Lin Zaize seemed to have become a hot topic, and everyone was whispering about him while buying things.

When mentioning this murderer, fear flashed across everyone's face, fearing that they would be the next person to be targeted.

At this moment, the supermarket’s TV was broadcasting news about Lin Zaize again.

"According to police investigations, the victims killed by the skull-splitting butcher Lin Zaize all seem to have one thing in common: a history of torturing and killing small animals..."

While buying groceries, Fanxing was thinking about Lin Zaize.

The person who committed murder in the news was definitely not Lin Zaize.

Lin Zaize doesn't look like someone who would care for small animals, otherwise he wouldn't have chased the flower demon.

Although the flower fairy is not a small animal, Lin Zai Ze can still kill the flower fairy because she is so cute. Fanxing doesn't think he will feel sorry for the small animals.

Did the police make a mistake, or was someone killing people in the name of Lin Zaize?
After buying the vegetables, Fanxing went home directly without delay.

Just halfway through the journey, Fanxing suddenly heard someone calling her.

"Sister Xing!"

Fanxing looked back and saw a girl in cheongsam looking at her with joy.

The girl is tall and plump, with big wavy hair and a gorgeous appearance, as if she is a charming beauty from the last century.

Unlike Fanxing's unkempt image, this girl dressed very conspicuously and attracted the attention of many people on the street as soon as she appeared.

"Ruo Ling?" Fanxing looked surprised. "Why are you here?"

The person who came was named Yang Ruoling. She was Fanxing's junior in Jinxiu Studio, and could be considered half her apprentice. She was almost a generation younger than Fanxing.

The starry embroidery skill comes from my grandma and mom.

My grandmother and mother both know how to embroider, and my grandmother’s embroidery skills are inherited from our family.

Although my grandmother did not consider embroidery as a lifelong career, her skills are absolutely impeccable.

According to my grandmother, her mother was an embroidery expert and she was taught by her mother step by step.

It was also because of embroidery that my grandmother was able to meet my mother, and introduced my mother to my father as his girlfriend, and they eventually got married.

Like Fanxing, her mother is an embroidery craftsman who makes a living by embroidery.

Fanxing's initial understanding of embroidery came from her mother's words and deeds.

However, when her mother passed away, Fanxing was too young and did not learn much of her mother's skills. Her skills were mainly inherited from her grandmother.

It can be said that all of grandma's skills were taught to Fanxing.

However, among her mother's belongings there was her embroidery notebook. After Fanxing learned the skill from her grandmother, she also studied her mother's notebook, which is how she acquired her current skills.

Speaking of which, Fanxing's current boss and mother are actually old acquaintances.

Fanxing had no intention of making embroidery her career at first, so she went to work in a large company after graduation.

Later, it was her current boss who found her and spent a lot of money to recruit her to his studio, so she quit her original job.

Yang Ruoling's embroidery skills are actually inherited from her family, but her family's embroidery tradition was broken long ago, so Yang Ruoling only learned half of it.

Later, at an embroidery exhibition, she accidentally saw Fanxing's works and was instantly stunned by them. She then became a complete fan girl of Fanxing.

Later, after some twists and turns, she joined Jinxiu Studio and became an apprentice under Fanxing.

Yang Ruoling walked over to Fanxing in two or three steps. "I came to see you. I heard from Brother He that you took a month off. I was a little worried, so I came to see you. I'm glad you're okay!"

Fanxing said helplessly: "What can happen to me? I just have some things to deal with at home."

Yang Ruoling held Fanxing affectionately and said, "I'm worried about you."

Fanxing asked, "Would you like to come to my house and have a visit?"

"Great!" Yang Ruoling said happily, holding up the cake in her hand. "Look, I brought you a gift. I waited in line for a long time to buy it!"

"Let's go." Fanxing took the lead and walked forward.

In Fanxing's yard, the rose fairy was sitting on the edge of the flower bed, singing softly, her white and tender feet swaying lightly, and she seemed to be in a good mood.

Suddenly she heard voices coming from outside the courtyard gate, and was so scared that she quickly hid in the flowers.

Fanxing and Yang Ruoling walked into the yard, talking and laughing. The flower fairy stuck her head out and observed them secretly. She didn't stick half of her body out again until the two of them entered the house.

After entering the room, Yang Ruoling immediately saw the bouquet of beautiful roses on the table.

Although a day had passed, the roses were still vibrant, as if they had just been picked.

"Wow, what beautiful roses! Sister Xing, where did you get them?"

Yang Ruoling liked brightly colored things. She put her head close to the rose and took a deep breath.

"It smells so good!"

Fanxing replied casually: "Someone gave it to me."

This sentence seemed to have triggered Yang Ruoling's radar. She immediately laughed strangely and said, "Sister Xing, tell me honestly, is someone pursuing you?"

Fanxing said speechlessly: "What are you thinking, it was given to you by a girl."

Flower demon should be considered a girl, right?

"Huh?" Yang Ruoling showed disappointment when she heard that, and the fire of gossip that had just been ignited was immediately extinguished.

Then she heard Fanxing say, "I don't have any plans to fall in love."

Yang Ruoling was puzzled: "Why, why don't you fall in love at your prime age?"

Fanxing was even more puzzled and said, "Yeah, I'm in my prime age, why should I waste time on falling in love?"

Yang Ruoling shook her head, "I really don't understand you, Sister Xing!"

Fanxing took out the vegetables she had just bought and asked Yang Ruoling, "Do you want to stay for dinner?"

Yang Ruoling came over to help, "Yes, I would have eaten this meal even if you hadn't told me."

As they spoke, the two of them carried the vegetables into the kitchen.

As soon as Yang Ruoling left, Yato and the princess came out of Fanxing's bag.

One of them was playing hide-and-seek at home, while the other took out the mirror of stars and started to show off his beauty.

Neither Fanxing nor Yang Ruoling were good cooks. After making a few simple home-cooked dishes, they brought the food to the living room.

However, when she saw Yato crawling out from under the sofa and the princess lying on the carpet looking at herself in the mirror, Yang Ruoling said in surprise:
"Sister Xing? Do you have a pet? What a cute cat!"

After saying that, she put down her plate and ran towards Yato.

"Meow! Meow!" Yato screamed when he saw this, all the hair on his body stood up, and he bared his teeth and roared at Yang Ruoling, threatening her not to come near.

You mere human, don't even think about touching me!
Are you kidding? Can any mortal touch my Lord Cat?
Yang Ruoling originally wanted to pick up Yedou, but was frightened by Yedou's words and stopped immediately, "This cat is a bit fierce!"

Fanxing looked surprised, "You can see them?"

Yang Ruoling was puzzled, "Why can't I see it?"

Fanxing was confused: What happened to the agreement that ordinary people can’t see spiritual seeds?
Could it be that Ruo Ling had also awakened and become a spiritualist? However, she did not sense any trace of spiritual energy in Ruo Ling.

In fact, not all spiritual species cannot be seen by ordinary people.

When a spirit becomes strong enough and its presence becomes too strong, it will appear in front of ordinary people.

Fanxing himself as Tai Sui is the most obvious example.

Because Yato and the princess had eaten Tai Sui's flesh and blood, their bodies had begun to mutate, and they were gradually able to be seen by ordinary people.

Yang Ruoling didn't notice Fanxing's puzzled look, and looked at the princess and asked, "Sister Xing, why do you have a goose as a pet? And it's black! It's not pretty at all." In the eyes of ordinary people, Yato and the princess have lost the halo of spiritual species. Yato has become the same as an ordinary kitten, although still cute, and the princess has become an ordinary goose.

When the princess heard someone calling her a big goose and saying that she was not good-looking, she immediately became unhappy. She spread her wings and flew towards Yang Ruoling, and started to bite her butt with her mouth.

This princess is not pretty? Are you blind?

"Hey, what's wrong with this goose? Did I do something wrong?" Yang Ruoling covered her butt and dodged left and right.

How dare you call me a goose? The princess got even angrier. I'm so beautiful, elegant, noble, and radiant. How can an ordinary bird compare to me?
"Hey hey hey~~~I was wrong, I was wrong." Although she didn't know where she was wrong, Yang Ruoling still apologized profusely.

Seeing this, Fanxing said, "Princess, that's enough!"

The princess reluctantly stopped attacking, turned her head hard, raised it proudly, puffed out her chest, and walked away proudly and confidently.

"It hurts! It hurts so much!" Yang Ruoling is obviously a beautiful woman, but at this moment she is covering her butt in embarrassment, which is really funny.

Fortunately, the princess knew her limits and didn't use too much force, otherwise Yang Ruoling's beautiful cheongsam would have been ruined.

She spent two months embroidering the cheongsam herself. If it weren't for the beautiful look she wanted to see the stars, she wouldn't have been willing to wear it.

"Okay, sit down and eat."

After Fanxing asked Yang Ruoling to sit down, she turned and went into the kitchen.

Soon she came out with two food bowls filled with spiritual seed rations mixed with some flesh and blood of stars.

The flesh and blood of the stars are inexhaustible, so she decided to take a little every day to feed Yato and the princess.

Judging from the growth of Painted Skin, it is beneficial to eat more of her flesh and blood.

Fanxing placed the food bowl in front of the two spirit species, and they immediately began to eat with relish.

Afterwards, Fanxing returned to the restaurant and sat down. Looking at the dishes on the table, she became interested and asked Yang Ruoling, "Would you like a drink?"

Yang Ruoling readily agreed: "Okay, I haven't drunk in a long time."

Fanxing nodded, then stood up and walked to the refrigerator not far away and took out a few cans of beer.

Fanxing and her friends don’t actually drink often, because it’s not a good idea to drink often in the embroidery business, and drinking too much can easily cause hand shaking.

And even if they drink, they drink beer with very low alcohol content.

Of course, these are all previous arguments.

In the past, Fanxing had told herself that she had forgotten that she was a spiritual seed. In fact, her hands would not shake no matter how much she drank.

The two of them drank and chatted, with Yang Ruoling mainly talking and Fanxing listening. Yang Ruoling talked about some things that happened in the studio in the past two days.

After dinner, the two shared the cake that Yang Ruoling brought.

The two chatted until eight or nine in the evening. Seeing that it was getting late, Fanxing asked Yang Ruoling to go home quickly.

Yang Ruoling was still reluctant, but Fanxing pushed her out directly.

After Yang Ruoling left, Fanxing cleaned up the dining table.

As for the dishes, she felt lazy and piled them all in the kitchen sink, planning to deal with them tomorrow.

After packing up everything, Fanxing sat on the sofa and began to daydream.

She thought that others had cultivation methods taught by their teachers to become stronger, but she didn't.

What should she do if she wants to become stronger as quickly as possible?
After thinking for a long time, she could only think of one way to prey on other spiritual species.

How about going out for a walk?
You won't find any spiritual species to prey on if you stay at home.

Moreover, she cannot go to the inner world to hunt, because most of the spiritual species in the inner world have identification tags and are registered with the alliance. If they disappear, someone will definitely track them down.

But the surface world is different.

Although spiritual species are rare in the surface world, they are all unknown before the alliance finds them, and no one will know even if they disappear.

As soon as he said it, Fanxing called Yato and the princess, "Come on, let's go out for a walk."

"Meow~"

"Goo~"

The two spirit species ran excitedly to Fanxing.

After locking the door, Fanxing disappeared into the moonlight with the two spirit seeds.

But what she didn't know was that as soon as she left, the rose fairy flew into her house.

When she saw the pile of unwashed dishes in the sink, she controlled Hua Teng and started washing them.

After washing, she also cleaned Fanxing's house. She was very diligent.

As for Fanxing, after going out, she walked to a dark corner, jumped up, and easily jumped onto the roof of a house.

Yato and the princess hurried to follow.

Then Fanxing quickly jumped from one rooftop to another, jumping higher and higher until he disappeared from the community where he lived and arrived at the rooftop of a building.

She stood on a high place, her eyes quickly scanning the surroundings, searching for her target.

Yato and the princess are also helping with the search.

However, spiritual species in the surface world are indeed hard to find. Apart from some small wood spirits and flower spirits that flash by, no other spiritual species can be seen at all.

After searching for a while without finding it, Fanxing jumped and disappeared to the top floor of the building with the two spirit seeds.

After wandering back and forth in the streets and alleys of Hongguang City for an unknown amount of time, Fanxing still found nothing.

Just as she was walking in a dark alley, Yato seemed to suddenly sense something, so he turned around and ran quickly in one direction.

Fanxing didn't hesitate and immediately followed with the princess.

After running through several alleys, it stopped in a remote corner.

There is a trash can here with a lot of garbage piled up in a mess.

As soon as she arrived here, Fanxing heard heavy breathing and painful groans.

She passed a pile of garbage and finally saw the source of the sound in a corner.

This is a dog-shaped spirit species, completely black, with messy fur and a lot of baldness.

Its eyes were red, its sharp teeth were exposed, its expression was extremely distorted and crazy, and its eyes were full of hatred, as if it would choose someone to bite at any time.

Fanxing aimed the spiritual seed atlas at it.

Race: Hateful Dog
Category: Evil Spirits
Attribute: evil

Features: Unawakened

Skill: Sorrowful Wail [Emits a tragic wail that resonates with those who hear it, significantly reducing the enemy's defense]

Rating: F
Positioning: Auxiliary

Description: This is a spirit species born from the resentment of a large number of abandoned pet dogs.

After reading the information about the spirit species, Fanxing was surprised. It turned out to be a rare evil spirit species.

At this moment, the vicious dog suddenly pounced on Fanxing, opened its mouth and bit Fanxing's throat.

As an evil spirit, this vicious dog possesses the characteristics of ordinary evil spirits: madness, bloodthirstiness, and warlike.

But as soon as it moved, Yato slapped it away with one claw.

Although this vicious dog looks fierce, its strength is really average.

Before the vicious dog could react, one of Fanxing's hands quickly turned into a part of Tai Sui, and the blue liquid instantly wrapped around the vicious dog and swallowed it.

The evil dog whimpered and decomposed in the blue liquid, turning into spiritual energy and being absorbed by the stars.
