57: No way, no way, you're afraid of being seen by the little skeleton?

A flash of golden light appeared.

A piece of Golden Silk Soft Armor spurted out from the small hillside.

Ning Xiwei grabbed it.

The soft armor was sleeveless, a small vest; it felt delicate to the touch, and its surface was very smooth.

Swords and sabers would likely slide right off if they struck it.

As soon as the Golden Silk Soft Armor vest was in her hand, Ning Xiwei immediately received information about it.

This soft armor could easily resist attacks from the low-stage of the fourth rank, significantly weaken mid-stage attacks, and slightly weaken high-stage attacks.

It also had a certain weakening effect on attacks from the fifth rank.

"So strong."

Ning Xiwei looked at Sun Feifei and handed over the golden silk vest.

This Golden Silk Soft Armor vest looked extraordinary at a glance.

Her Best Friend actually wanted to give it to her again?

Sun Feifei felt a warmth in her heart, but she waved her hands repeatedly and smiled,

"Alright, Xiwei, this is good stuff, keep it for yourself. I haven't done anything and don't deserve such a reward. Just being able to follow you into the demigods secret treasure is enough for me."

"This..."

Ning Xiwei was a bit worried.

Her Best Friend was only at the mid-stage of the second rank; for the demigods secret treasure, she was still too weak.

If she encountered danger and the Little Skeleton couldn't save her in time, perhaps... Sun Feifei was very important to her.

She didn't want to lose her.

Swoosh~

Another beam of golden light spurted out from the small hillside.

Ning Xiwei reacted quickly and reached out to grab it.

"Another one!"

She shouted excitedly.

In her hand, sure enough, was another identical Golden Silk Soft Armor vest.

"Feifei, take it. You are not allowed to refuse this time."

Ning Xiwei hurriedly stuffed the other Golden Silk Soft Armor vest into Sun Feifei's hand.

The moment she took the golden silk vest, Sun Feifei instantly understood its functions.

A fourth-rank defensive secret treasure!

As long as she wore it,

In Chiyang City, even if she was only at the mid-stage of the second rank, she could be considered invincible.

Because in the entire Chiyang City, except for the Little Skeleton, no one could break through her defense!

It was too precious!

Such a precious defensive secret treasure, and her Best Friend had given it to her without a second thought.

"Xiwei..."

Sun Feifei was deeply moved.

"Thank you, Xiwei."

"Oh, I didn't do much. It's all thanks to the Little Skeleton."

Ning Xiwei took Sun Feifei's hand, smiling.

"Thank you, Little Skeleton."

Sun Feifei wiped away tears of gratitude and sincerely thanked Lu Chen.

This girl's attitude...

Lu Chen was quite satisfied.

She didn't fight or grab, and she understood her place.

Since she was important to the Little Girl, it was only right to look after her a bit.

At this moment.

The small hillside spat out another beam of golden light.

"Xiwei!"

Sun Feifei exclaimed.

Ning Xiwei leaped into the air and caught the golden light that almost flew away.

"Another one!"

Looking at it, it was unexpectedly another golden silk vest, glowing brilliantly.

"Could it be?"

"There are more in the small hillside?"

Ning Xiwei and Sun Feifei looked at each other, staring intently at the small hillside.

"Spit it out, hurry up."

Lu Chen didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

These two girls were treating the small hillside like a Golden Silk Vest factory.

The three of them watched quietly as the small hillside continued to gestate golden light.

Crash~

A large amount of golden light suddenly gushed out from within the small hillside.

"Ah, there are too many!"

Ning Xiwei had to throw her beloved golden silk vest on the ground, then darted left and right to catch the spurting golden lights.

To Sun Feifei, the golden silk vest was like a family heirloom; she couldn't bear to drop it.

But...

Although the golden lights from the hillside weren't fast, there were many—dozens of them—and they were about to fly away.

Gritting her teeth, she also threw the golden silk vest on the ground and waved her staff, trying to knock down the escaping golden lights.

"There are too many, I can't catch them all."

Ning Xiwei kept looking back at Lu Chen.

Lu Chen waved his palm.

A wind rose from the flat ground.

The wind grew stronger and then began to rotate like a tornado.

This move was the talent he had obtained from the Great Ape—Wind Control.

As the tornado rose,

The dozens of escaping golden lights were enveloped by the tornado, all suspended in the draft.

"This is wind magic!"

"The Little Skeleton even knows wind magic; he's such a polymath."

Sun Feifei was stunned!

He could fight, save people, and even cast magic.

Is there anything the Little Skeleton can't do!

Lu Chen raised his arm and made a downward stroke.

The wind stopped.

Clatter, dozens of golden lights fell to the ground like rain.

The golden light dissipated, revealing the items inside.

"What? They're just Bear-Head Gold Coins."

Sun Feifei saw that after each golden light dissipated, what remained were several or dozens of Bear-Head Gold Coins, and she couldn't help but huff in dissatisfaction.

Although gold was expensive,

But compared to secret treasures, it still seemed cheap.

"It's gold coins!"

Ning Xiwei excitedly grabbed the gold coins and held them in her arms.

In her eyes full of Spiritual Qi, there seemed to be a glint of a money-grubber's golden light.

"Bear heads again. Do these bear heads have some kind of meaning?"

Ning Xiwei muttered.

"What meaning could they have? They must be the currency used by the demigod of the demigods secret treasure."

Sun Feifei picked up a gold coin, tapped it, and looked it over, but couldn't see anything special.

Lu Chen picked up a gold coin.

He applied force with two finger bones.

Snap~

The gold coin shattered into a cloud of golden mist.

"..."

The two girls looked at Lu Chen speechlessly.

Lu Chen let out a ka-ka laugh.

The hardness of this gold coin was comparable to a diamond.

It seemed the Bear-Head Gold Coins were quite extraordinary.

Shua!

Lu Chen's vision suddenly went dark.

The Little Girl had put the third golden silk vest on him.

He touched the smooth golden silk vest and tapped it.

The defensive power was just so-so.

With him wearing it, who knows who would be protecting whom.

With a wave of his hand,

The gold coins covering the ground and the golden silk vest on his body all vanished, stored into the Seal Space.

Seeing that Lu Chen wouldn't wear the golden silk vest,

Ning Xiwei just pouted and didn't say much.

She looked at the golden silk vest in her hand and then at Sun Feifei.

"Feifei, the vest should be worn underneath, right?"

"Definitely."

Sun Feifei rustled as she took off her coat, watching Xiwei's flushed face as she did so.

"No way, no way, Xiwei, you're not still afraid of the Little Skeleton seeing you, are you?"

"No, how could I be?"

Ning Xiwei blushed and also rustled as she took off her coat.

Hmm... You're all treating me like a real skeleton, aren't you?

Lu Chen scratched his smooth skull.

Her skin is quite white.

Heh... Fan Feng had run two miles away.

"Whew... that monster didn't catch up."

Fan Feng sensed there was no danger behind him and only then stopped to heal, pouring pills into his mouth and chewing them.

"Fortunately, fortunately Xier managed to strike the Great Ape with his sword."

Fan Feng looked relieved.

"Xier's chances of survival are slim."

"Bastard!"

Fan Feng looked furious and couldn't help but roar,

"It's all Ning Xiwei's fault! If it weren't for Ning Xiwei, how could Xier have died!"

"Damned commoner, I, Fan Feng, cannot coexist with you!"

"Ah!"

He suddenly swung his sword wildly, Sword Qi rampaging, veins bulging, eyes bloodshot, as he roared,

"Ning Xiwei, you killed my Xier!"

"The vengeance for my son's death is irreconcilable! I, Fan Feng, swear here that I will slay you with my sword!"
