Chapter 1695: Face-slapping, Round 5 (5)

Feng Wu rubbed the horse’s head as she spoke.

Hmph!

The horse raised its chin proudly, but it didn’t refuse Feng Wu’s affectionate behavior.

This human girl didn’t seem so bad after all, thought the horse.

“Come, let’s go get Little Phoenix!” Feng Wu waved her fist and made a “forward” gesture.

The horse did as it was told and headed in the direction indicated by Feng Wu.

Now that Seven and the Demon Chimpanzee were no longer after her, Feng Wu relaxed and was curious about the horse’s past.

And she was the type of person who would ask bravely when she was curious.

“Hey, hey —”

She poked the horse’s ear with a finger.

The horse rolled its eyes. “What?”

Feng Wu asked, “Were you abandoned before?”

The horse immediately stiffened when it heard the question.

Feng Wu said, “What? I’m just chatting. I’ve been hurt before as well, and I lost all my ability and became useless. I regained my cultivation ability, though, and got everything back. If you live long enough, you’ll run into some sc.u.mbags. Just get used to it.”

So, this human girl had been betrayed before as well, thought the horse.

Other people might not think much about Feng Wu’s words, but the horse could empathize, because it had experienced a similiar thing before.

Because of that, it involuntarily trusted Feng Wu a little more.

If its trust in Feng Wu had only been 1% at first, after jumping off the cliff, it rose to 40%. With the empathy, it had just increased to 50%.

Feng Wu didn’t know about the impact which her words had on the horse as she went on. “Other people may betray you or sacrifice you, but I won’t. Just remember, no matter how dangerous it is, I’ll come back for you. You should never give up your life because you’ve lost hope, understand? You almost did something very stupid back there.”

She patted the horse’s head.

The horse snorted.

Feng Wu said, “I bet your old master wasn’t as pretty, clever, or talented as I am. Right?”

The horse couldn’t take it anymore, and it mumbled, “She’s not as pretty as you are, but she’s more capable.”

Embarra.s.sed, Feng Wu said, “Hey, you’re my horse now! Why are you taking other people’s side?”

The horse snorted. “Not yet!”

Feng Wu was embarra.s.sed again. “You’re so unruly. When you become mine, I’ll teach you a lesson, hmph!”

The horse was glad to see Feng Wu like this.

Back then, its master was also a pretty girl, but she would never speak to it in such an affectionate way. She was always cold, condescending, and authoritative.

Seeing that the horse was lost in its thoughts, Feng Wu was even more curious.

“Hey, what’s your old master like? Is she really so much better than me?” Feng Wu pouted.

“Yes, she’s a lot better than you.” The horse snorted.

Feng Wu wouldn’t believe it. “That’s not possible!”

The horse said, “She’s about your age, but she’s a Spiritual Lord already.”

Feng Wu asked, “Seriously?”
