Honkai Impact: Starting from Wandering with Kiana

"Are you out of your mind?!" Jiuxiao was full of question marks, then looked around and looked back at Xier.

"If I don't look at you, what else can I look at?"

"I don't care! Seele is mine, you're not allowed to look at her!!"

Hei Xi crossed her arms and turned her head away arrogantly, not because she was shy about being looked at by Jiu Xiao.

"Okay, okay, I won't look, I won't look. Try it, these are all specially saved for you by Bai Xi, she didn't even finish them!" Jiu Xiao closed his eyes and handed the remaining half of Bai Xi's cake to Hei Xi.

"Hmph, it's not like I won't let you see it at all, you can only see a little bit..." Hei Xi took the small cake and said softly.

"Seele is so cute, it's impossible not to want to look at her." Jiuxiao opened his eyes, glanced at the proud Black Seele a few more times, and then turned to look at the blue sea next to him.

"Hmph." Hei Xi snorted coldly, then continued to examine the small cake.

Seeing that Jiu Xiao wasn't looking at him, Hei Xi's face immediately turned red, his eyes turned into little hearts, and drool unconsciously dripped from the corner of his mouth.

"Hehehe, Seele ate it... Seele's taste..."

"Huh? What are you saying?" Jiuxiao turned around curiously upon hearing the strange voice.

"Nothing, I was just wondering why this food tastes so awful." Hei Xi slumped on the sofa table with a look of utter disgust, fiddling with the food with her small hands.

"Turn your head away! Don't peek!"

"Oh~"

Jiu Xiao turned her head away, and Hei Xi immediately reverted to her infatuated state. But after taking a bite of food, Hei Xi's eyes widened, revealing the same expression as Bai Xi.

"Mmm~ This tastes really good! Hehehe, and it even has Seele's saliva on it... So delicious~"

What the fool Hei Xi didn't know was that Jiu Xiao had secretly taken out a mirror and was watching Hei Xi swooning over her through it.

But as she looked, Seele, who was eating heartily in the mirror, raised her head, her scarlet eyes now glowing red.

Startled, Jiu Xiao turned to look at Hei Xi, only to be suddenly leaped up from behind, knocking Jiu Xiao down in mid-air and straddling him.

Hei Xi kicked the mirror out of Jiu Xiao's hand, then revealed a kind smile, grabbed Jiu Xiao's face and stared at him.

"I knew the sunlight was twinkling... My dear Jiuxiao brother, you saw it, didn't you~"

Jiu Xiao grabbed Hei Xi's hands that were pressing against her cheeks, and said to her, though her tone was unconvincing, "I don't think you'd believe me even if I said I didn't see it, but I still want to try. I didn't see it!!"

"Who are you trying to fool! Only Seele would believe your lies!"

Hei Xi shook off Jiu Xiao's hands and pinched Jiu Xiao's cheeks again. Jiu Xiao was not to be outdone and pinched Hei Xi's cheeks with both hands.

The two of them stood frozen on the ground, each holding the other's face in their hands.

Finally, Jiuxiao looked into Heixi's eyes and posed a soul-searching question.

"Aren't you Seele too?"

Hei Xi was stunned by Jiu Xiao's question. While cursing herself for saying something stupid, she was also secretly pleased with Jiu Xiao's counter-question.

"You're being unreasonable! I don't care! Forget what you saw!!"

"Okay, okay, I'll do whatever Seele says."

"Hmph." Black Xi closed her eyes angrily, and when she opened them again, she had turned into White Xi.

When Seele opened her eyes and saw Jiuxiao right in front of her, and the two of them in a strange posture, her CPU burned out and she turned into a steampunk princess.

As Jiu Xiao touched Xi'er's cheek, he could clearly feel the little face in his hand rapidly warming up.

Sheer was so shy she could barely speak. "Brother Jiu Jiu Xiao... let me go..."

Chapter 141 A Unique Gift

The concept of time is not important in the quantum ocean, but the world bubble will still have day and night.

How amazing! There's not even the light of a star!

As darkness gradually descended, the sea, illuminated by the moonlight, twinkled and shimmered, mirroring the stars on a stage.

Seele's fair, snow-white feet trod on the fine sand. The sea, like a pilgrim, relentlessly surged onto the beach, kissing Seele's ankles time and again.

The tide carried away the quicksand, leaving only Seele's boundless beauty.

Jiuxiao didn't know how to evaluate this scene, but if he could, he would be the tide!

"Brother Jiuxiao, come and chase Xier~" Xier ran with her hands behind her back, skipping and jumping.

"The fierce ghost is coming!" The Nine Heavens Tiger pounced on its prey, chasing after Seele.

The world was as quiet as the vast universe, but the endless laughter of the two people on the beach lingered in the World Bubble for a long time.

"Oops~"

Seele wasn't paying attention and bumped into a giant quantum crab (Shadow of the Abyss) hiding under the sand, falling to the ground.

King crab, delicious

Jiuxiao quickly helped Xier up and patted the sand off her body.

"Are you okay?"

"Seele's alright... The sand is soft, she just bumped her foot and it hurts a little..."

Seele's eyes welled up with tears, and she bumped her toe on something; it really hurt.

"Let me rub your feet, hoo~" Jiu Xiao held Xi'er's little feet, blowing on them while gently rubbing them.

"Um..." Seele waved her hands shyly. "No, no... no need, it's too embarrassing... Seele's feet are dirty..."

"No, Seele's feet smell nice and are soft, not dirty at all~"

Seele: 0x0

"Gurgle gurgle~" The quantum crab grumbled as it crawled out from under the sand, preparing to find another spot to lie in the sand.

"This is huge, we've got our midnight snack sorted."

Jiuxiao grabbed the quantum crab by its legs and lifted it up. It was as big as Bronya, enough for him and Seele to eat.

"Gurgle gurgle!!" Upon hearing that it was about to be eaten, the giant crab began to struggle violently.

Snapped--

Jiuxiao slapped it shut. Why make such a fuss over a piece of food? Wouldn't it be better to just let it be eaten?

"Um, Brother Jiuxiao, isn't this a bit inappropriate..." Seele looked at the quantum crab cautiously. Although it looked a little strange, it was still a life, and Seele felt a little reluctant to do it.

"It's alright. Look, it's not resisting us eating it anymore, so it must want us to eat it."

After Jiuxiao finished speaking, he slapped the Quantum Crab a few more times under Xier's beady gaze. The Shadow of the Abyss twitched its legs twice, then completely stopped struggling.

"Look, it really didn't refuse to let us eat it!"

"Um...Brother Jiuxiao, whatever makes you happy."

"How would you like to eat it, Seele? Steamed or... never mind, we don't have any seasonings or tools, let's just bake it!"

After discussing it, Seele picked up her large scythe and chopped down a few trees to build a small campfire. Jiuxiao used his power to compress the air, then snapped his fingers, and the fire started.

The two men hung the quantum crabs over the campfire and started grilling them.

The two sat by the fire, chatting comfortably.

A delicious aroma wafted through the air, and soon the quantum crab was ready. Jiu Xiao tiptoed down the crab and placed it in front of the two of them.

As the crab's shell was lifted, a golden light shone out from the quantum crab's body, accompanied by the unique aroma of seafood.

"Wow, the Golden Legend!" "It smells so good!"

Jiuxiao broke off the crab claws, squeezed them hard, and crushed the crab shell, revealing the crab meat inside intact.

"Come on, Xier, be careful, it's hot."

"Thank you, Brother Jiuxiao!"

Xi'er took the crab claw that Jiu Xiao handed her and took a small bite.

"Ouch, it's so hot—"

Seele opened her mouth and breathed heavily, fanning herself with her little hands.

"Silly girl... Ouch, it's really hot."

Jiuxiao smiled and took a bite, only to get burned as well.

The two of them leaned against each other, shoulder to shoulder, breathing heavily in the cool air.

"Brother Jiuxiao is an idiot too!" "Yes, yes, we're all idiots~"

----------

Xier and Jiuxiao nestled together, sitting under a tree and watching the shimmering sea.

As dawn broke, the sun gradually rose over the opposite shore of the sea.

"Brother Jiuxiao, what time was it in real time when you came in...?"

"Let me think, it seems to be October 17th..."
