After Breaking the Persona, I Reach the Peak of My Life

Chapter 1243: Chapter 1240: Cat Xiaohei?

Perhaps because of a child’s body, Xiao Wu cried himself to sleep, his cheeks flushed, eyes tightly shut, still occasionally sniffing and hiccuping. Seeing Xiao Wu like this, Bi Xia didn’t know whether to laugh or feel sorry.

Fingertips touched Xiao Wu’s brow, and the azure spiritual power gradually melted into Xiao Wu’s spiritual sea. The originally restless child gradually calmed down, his tiny fists relaxed, breathing evenly, his chest rising and falling stably.

Bi Xia gently touched Xiao Wu’s cheek, tucked the blanket up a bit, stood up, and quietly walked towards the door. After opening the door and confirming Xiao Wu hadn’t awakened, he walked out and closed the door behind him.

"He’s asleep?"

Wei Ming raised his eyelids, legs crossed while watching TV, leisurely responding.

Bi Xia responded, and turned his gaze to the 007 on his shoulder. 007 lazily shook itself awake, leaped down from Wei Ming’s shoulder, and padded cat-like to Bi Xia’s feet, allowing Bi Xia to bend down and pick it up, seeming much more obedient than when it was with Wei Ming.

Wei Ming: ...

"Why is it that when you come out, Little Black leaves me?" Wei Ming accused Bi Xia.

"Little Black?" Bi Xia was puzzled, "Bi Xiaohai isn’t here."

"...I mean it!" Wei Ming pointed at 007, "Black Cat."

"..." Bi Xia gave a wry smile, "Serves our Bi Lingqi right for ignoring you."

haughtily tilted its head, country bumpkin.

With a smile, Bi Xia said to Meng Chi and Wei Ming, "Let’s talk about serious matters now."

As he said this, his brow furrowed slightly, "Have you both been training your spiritual power recently?"

Meng Chi nodded, "Yes, every time I’m in the room, I’m training spiritual power. I feel like I’m getting increasingly proficient at using spiritual power, though I haven’t had the chance to put it into practice, so tonight is a first."

While Wei Ming clicked his tongue, "So violent, I’m doing alright, I prefer peace, so my progress is somewhat slow..." He scratched his head and said to Bi Xia, "You know, re-engaging with spiritual power feels a bit disconnected to me. My spiritual power was so high before, and now I’m starting over, which makes me a bit... impatient, and this isn’t something you can rush, so progress is somewhat slow."

Bi Xia paused, took out his phone, edited and sent a message, then put his phone away, "I see, then later Ming, let’s talk more about that. Chi, if you notice anything off, ask me immediately, alright?"

Meng Chi nodded, "Don’t worry."

"Ming," Bi Xia looked at Wei Ming, "Are you sure there’s nothing wrong in Beijing? I feel somewhat... uneasy."

Wei Ming paused, lazily leaning on the sofa, "Don’t worry, they can handle it," he paused, smirking, "Little Seven was right, you’re so smart, how could you not guess?"

"Little Fei?"

"Yes," Wei Ming shrugged, "There’s change happening internally in Beijing, they need to go back to control it, considering they’re famous princes in Beijing. Little Seven even mentioned asking if you’d want to return, but we always felt it’s better not to appear now because Beijing is chaotic, and most importantly... you wouldn’t be able to help much even if you go. Only combat power matters, but in that big whirlpool, combat power doesn’t count for much."

"So," Wei Ming laughed at himself, "I decided to stay, because returning wouldn’t be useful, might as well help you wrap things up in Qing City and then return to Beijing with fanfare as their ace."

Listening to Wei Ming, Bi Xia lowered his eyes to think. Though Wei Ming didn’t give a complete answer, Bi Xia knew there were many unknowns, she nodded silently, "Got it, we’ll head back tomorrow."

Meng Chi said, "I’ve already booked the tickets; it’s afternoon tickets, we should arrive in Qing City around six in the evening... Hey, boss," suggesting toward the room, "Is that child coming with us? And Bi Lingqi too, are you thinking cargo?"

"No rush for Xiao Wu, tomorrow you guys come with me to Shixia Trading Company to sort out Xiao Wu’s documents. As for Lingqi, don’t worry, I have a plan," Bi Xia said, rubbing his chin, "Chi, buy an extra ticket, we have another friend joining us."

"A friend?"

Just as Wei Ming was puzzled, the sound of knocking came from the room door, Meng Chi and Bi Xia exchanged a glance, then Meng Chi stood up smirking, "Our friend has arrived."
