Chapter 99 - New Companion (4)

Meanwhile, during the 7 minutes that he was changing, He Li was also going through an inner contemplation.

His master was a hermit, so as his disciple, He Li had little human contact, little was an overstatement, his human contact was practically zero and would be zero if not for him speaking to his master, the waiters at restaurants and asking a stranger once for direction.

After his master left, he was busy going around collecting the inheritance as per his master's wishes and cultivating.

The two innocent bunnies are literally a match made in heaven (-defying artifact that is). (A/N: Nice pun right? Okay, who am I kidding? I can't do puns, but He Li can do Z-... okay I won't)

They were rather lucky that Zi Hua had a previous life, or else both of them would be as clueless as each other, at least Zi Hua has friends now and some knowledge of relationships from her time studying, unlike He Li who only knew a tiny bit from the time when he found a book on the floor at a inn that he was staying at.

'What was I thinking? To change in front of her? Wahh, how will I face her when I get out? Why does she have male clothes with her? Is she together with someone?' Although he felt a bit uncomfortable thinking that the thoughtful girl would be with someone else, the innocent and pure-hearted guy didn't know how he should face her after having such a stupid misunderstanding, especially if she was with someone already... (A/N: Yeah, she's with someone right now alright, with you)

After he changed into the black and purple outfit, he gathered his courage and went out, by then Zi Hua had gotten back her composure.

"Does it fit?"

"Yeah"

"I'll go get changed then" Zi Hua then entered the changing room, He Li moved farther away to where Xiao Shen and Xiao Ling was to give Zi Hua some space.

Zi Hua wore a a purple top piece that trialed down with long sleeves that fitted tightly on her wrists and flowy purple pants that wrapped tightly at her ankles and boots. (A/N: Apparently, you shouldn't wear white when it's hot)

He Li wore the same but the pants and boots were black instead, the two looked like a couple when wearing the matching outfits.

Zi Hua then brought out two veils to cover their faces and masks that covered their eyes to protect themselves from wind and sand but still allowed them to see.

Both outfits were made from UV protective fabrics so it was much more efficient than wearing other clothes in the desert and the full coverage would protect them from sun burn.

She also gave him several bottles of sunscreen which she had create using a combination of plants.

"Apply this regularly on your skin, it will protect you"

Xiao Shen and Xiao Ling didn't have to wear them since they were spirit bodies and wouldn't be affected.

They had been rushing through the rain forest so they had managed to get through it in such a short time period but it would be much harder to get through the desert due to the heat, they will have to take regular breaks, so the two decided to spend the night in the rain forest before heading to the desert.

The clothing didn't cause any trouble for them despite them not being in the desert so they kept it on, the clothes were made from the special fabric that her master left for her so they could clean it with spirit power.

Zi Hua then made sure that she had prepared everything in her storage ring so that she would be prepared for tomorrow, it would be bad if she suddenly found that she was missing something when she needed it, if she was missing anything she would at least know and have time to think of an alternative.
