Chapter 32: Taking Flight in Place! Returning to Utan City!
Practicing the Purple Cloud Wings was difficult primarily due to two reasons.
Firstly, one had to withstand the impact of the residual soul of a Fifth Grade Magical Beast!
Secondly, it required extreme patience, as the Purple Cloud Wings would create two new channels within the body!
In the original story, even with Xiao Yan's formidable soul strength and willpower, he would often faint from the pain!
However, for Xiao Ze, it was bearable.
The pain surged towards Xiao Ze like waves crashing against a rock.
Regardless of how turbulent the waves were, the rock stood firm.
As time passed, two new channels gradually formed on his back.
At this moment, the pain slowly dissipated.
Xiao Ze opened his eyes, and the Little Doctor Fairy looked at him with concern.
"Xiao Ze, are you alright? You seemed in so much pain just now. Did you succeed in practicing the martial technique? The characters and wings on the scroll have disappeared!"
Xiao Ze stood up, stretching his body which had become somewhat numb due to the pain.
"The cultivation is complete. This flying martial technique is quite peculiar; it can only accommodate one person for cultivation, and once the cultivation is complete, it naturally disappears."
"I see."
The Little Doctor Fairy nodded. This was her first time hearing about a flying martial technique, and she found it quite fascinating.
"So, Xiao Ze, can you fly now?"
The Little Doctor Fairy asked curiously, "That's something only experts above the Fighter Tier can do. You can actually do it!"
The ranking system in the Dou Qi Continent was strict, and only experts at the Fighter Tier could briefly hover in the air.
To truly fly, one needed to be a Dou King expert!
"To find out, let me try it. If it works, I'll take you for a ride!"
Xiao Ze smiled as he took off his shirt, revealing his bare upper body.
"Why are you... What are you doing?"
The Little Doctor Fairy covered her eyes hastily as Xiao Ze took off his shirt, feeling a bit embarrassed.
"Aren't we trying out the flying martial technique? Why are you taking off your clothes?"
The Little Doctor Fairy said indignantly.
Although they had already experienced intimacy, taking off his clothes without a word seemed a bit inappropriate!
"What are you thinking? I'm doing this to prevent my clothes from getting damaged. These are the only two sets of clothes I have."
Xiao Ze explained while turning his back to the Little Doctor Fairy.
The majestic Dou Qi in his body flowed towards the two newly opened channels on his back.
The Little Doctor Fairy moved her fingers aside and saw a pair of palm-sized purple-black wings on Xiao Ze's back.
The wings emitted a purple light, and as the Dou Qi circulated, the purple-black wings solidified, suddenly expanding from palm-size to nearly several feet in size.
"Wow!"
The Little Doctor Fairy couldn't help but exclaim in admiration as Xiao Ze controlled the wings to flap slowly.
A powerful buoyancy lifted Xiao Ze's body, suspending him in the air until he reached a considerable height before slowly descending.
"This stone chamber is too small. Let's try it outside!"
Xiao Ze pulled the Little Doctor Fairy and walked towards the exit of the cave.
They had already searched the items in the cave thoroughly, so leaving now wouldn't matter.
Outside on the stone platform, Xiao Ze unfurled the Purple Cloud Wings once again.
To the Little Doctor Fairy's astonishment, Xiao Ze suddenly leaped off the cliff.
"Xiao Ze!"
The Little Doctor Fairy anxiously looked down, feeling a strong gust of wind blowing against her.
She raised her hand to shield her eyes and saw Xiao Ze flapping his wings, gradually flying back up.
"I'm not that eager to die!"
Xiao Ze chuckled.
"You're so daring! This is your first time mastering a martial technique, and you dare to jump off a cliff to try it out!"
"It's my first time, but I already familiarized myself with the Purple Cloud Wings back in the cave."
Xiao Ze felt the massive consumption of Dou Qi in his body and sighed inwardly.
Indeed, flying was not something an ordinary Fighter could handle.
If an ordinary Fighter were to use Dou Qi as extravagantly as he did, their Dou Qi would have been exhausted long ago.
Fortunately, his Dou Qi vortex was unique, and the quality of liquefied Dou Qi was very high.
This allowed him to sustain the consumption of the Purple Cloud Wings.
Xiao Ze flew in the valley for a while before returning to the stone platform to replenish his Dou Qi.
"Alright, I've become completely proficient. Once my Dou Qi is restored, I'll take you for a ride!"
Xiao Ze said confidently.
"Mm!"
If the Little Doctor Fairy had a hint of doubt before, now she was full of confidence in Xiao Ze.
She eagerly looked forward to letting Xiao Ze take her for a flight.
Watching Xiao Ze perform various difficult maneuvers in the valley just now, he didn't seem like someone who had just mastered a flying martial technique for the first time!
Before long, the valley echoed with the Little Doctor Fairy's cries!
At this moment, the Little Doctor Fairy had not yet tamed a flying magical beast.
This was her first time flying in the sky!
A strong sense of novelty made the Little Doctor Fairy scream repeatedly.
Mixed with fear was excitement.
Even though Xiao Ze held her waist, the Little Doctor Fairy still hugged him tightly, afraid of falling.
It wasn't until Xiao Ze returned to the stone platform that the Little Doctor Fairy felt a bit reluctant!
"So, this is what flying feels like? It's so wonderful!"
"No wonder so many people aspire to become experts. As long as you become strong, you can soar freely in the sky!"
The Little Doctor Fairy sighed with emotion.
"Haha, if you want, I'll take you flying more often these days."
"Okay! But won't it consume too much of your Dou Qi?"
"It's fine, I feel like I can handle it!"
For the next few days, Xiao Ze took the Little Doctor Fairy flying in the valley.
He didn't dare to fly too far away because low-level magical beasts were prevalent outside the Demon Beast Mountain Range.
However, there was no guarantee that high-level magical beasts wouldn't appear, and flying in the air would make them easy targets!
Time flew by, and it was time to return to Utan City.
If they waited any longer, they might miss the enrollment date.
During these days, Xiao Xuner had also brought many benefits to Xiao Ze.
She actually broke through to Three Stars in succession!
This absurd cultivation speed amazed Xiao Ze!
However, he didn't claim the rewards yet.
Instead, he wanted to wait until he broke through to the Great Fighter before claiming them!
He wondered if there would be any special effects after claiming non-advanced rewards and then breaking through to the Great Fighter.
Five days later, Xiao Ze returned to Utan City with the Little Doctor Fairy.
Watching the bustling mercenaries and merchants coming and going, the Little Doctor Fairy's eyes were full of curiosity.
"So, this is a large city? It's definitely livelier than Qing Shan Town!"
"By the way, Xiao Ze, shouldn't you take off this disguise now?"
"We've known each other for so many days, and I still don't know what you really look like!"
The Little Doctor Fairy was full of curiosity, feeling as if ants were crawling in her heart as they returned to Utan City.
"It's true. But it's a pity to remove this delicate disguise. It costs ten thousand gold coins, and it'll be ruined once removed!"
Xiao Ze lamented somewhat regretfully.
"Let's wash up while we're at it!"
Xiao Ze pulled the Little Doctor Fairy to a nearby stream.
The Little Doctor Fairy stood by the stream while Xiao Ze jumped into the water to wash his body.
After spending more than ten days together, their relationship had become much closer, and they were no longer as distant as before.
At least now, the Little Doctor Fairy didn't react when she saw Xiao Ze's bare upper body and washing his body.
She openly inspected Xiao Ze's body and even made jokes.
"Xiao Ze, is your body getting stronger? You seem different from ten days ago."
"It should be. I've been using Dou Qi a lot these days, which also has a training effect."
Xiao Ze casually responded. When he emerged from the water, he already had a different appearance.
The Little Doctor Fairy widened her eyes in surprise, unable to help but think,
"What a handsome young man!"
