Chapter 20
Cute Space Fairy
Gu Qingming asked in surprise, “What… what are you?”
“Master, I’m not a thing. Well, that’s not right. I’m a thing, and that’s not right either.” The elf had a cute little face and a little frown. “I’m… I’m a space elf!”
“Pfft!”
Looking at such a cute and beautiful little thing, Gu Qingming suddenly felt less nervous and uneasy.
She stretched out her slender white hand and opened her palm. The Space Spirit stood in her palm.
“What a cute little thing!” Gu Qingming looked at the cute little cutie in his palm and his heart softened.
The Space Spirit instantly protested, “Master, I’m not a little thing. I’m a Space Spirit!”
Gu Qingming nodded and said, “Okay, okay, you’re a Space Spirit!”
Her other hand reached out to caress its small, white wings. They were actually soft and cool and very comfortable.
The space elf felt comfortable being gently touched by its master, but his awkward little personality made him protest. “Master, I’m not a thing. I’m an elf. You can’t keep touching me.”
It paused again and said, “If you really want to touch me, then… then I’ll let you touch me for a while. Only for a while!”
After saying that, it stood quietly in Gu Qingming’s palm.
Gu Qingming was extremely charmed by this little thing.
“Wow, it’s so cute,” Gu Qingming said as she stroked it.
After a moment, the space elf couldn’t take it anymore.
Spreading its little wings, it whooshed into the air.
Looking at the little elf in the air, Gu Qingming said reluctantly, “Why did it fly away? I still want to play for a while.”
However, the spatial fairy said seriously and shyly, “Master, you’re rubbing and pinching me. I’m shy.”
Gu Qingming asked in surprise. “Are you a man or a woman, you little thing?”
The space elf thought about it very seriously and said, “We elves don’t differentiate between men and women.”
“Ah, there’s no gender?” Gu Qingming was curious. “If there’s no gender, how do you elves reproduce?”
The space sprite was speechless.
Its master’s train of thought was a little strange.
The elf’s small mouth opened and closed as she said seriously, “Master, we should get down to business.”
“Business?” Gu Qingming immediately stopped teasing and nodded. “Yes, we should indeed talk about business.”
Then, very seriously, she asked, “Where am I? And how do I get back?”
She knew very well that she was not dreaming.
The fairy flew around Gu Qingming in the air. Then, it heard Gu Qingming introduce herself beside the spring water, “Master, hello, I’m the spatial fairy. You’re in the space now.”
“Space, what space?” Gu Qingming asked in confusion. “This is the era of science, not some immortal cultivation world.”
Hearing Gu Qingming mention this, the spatial fairy’s expression immediately became lonely.
Silence and sadness. There was even a hint of despair in its small eyes.
Gu Qingming was speechless. She must have said something she shouldn’t have and made the elf sad.
Although she did not know the background of this little elf, Gu Qingming’s heart subconsciously ached when she saw its appearance.
This must be an elf with a story.
She went to the elf and held it in the palm of her hand. She comforted him carefully. “Little elf, I said something I shouldn’t have said. Don’t take it to heart. Don’t be sad!”
Then she touched its little head.
It was lonely and sad for a moment. Perhaps it was Gu Qingming’s consolation, but the spatial fairy quickly recovered.
With a whoosh, it flew out again and stopped by a spring.
Gu Qingming felt a moment of reluctance again.
The space elf glanced at its master with disdain.
Gu Qingming was stunned.
What kind of look was that? She hadn’t said anything wrong.
She had really doted on him for nothing just now.
The spatial fairy continued, “In the vast universe, there are 3,000 great worlds. Every world has a different way of survival. Master’s current planet is just a very ordinary world among many worlds. There has never been any cultivation, nor has it reached a high-tech civilization. It is an ordinary planet with a low-level civilization that lacks spiritual energy.”
Gu Qingming frowned slightly and asked curiously, “So, you mean that there are other worlds in this universe or planets?”
“Of course.” The space elf raised his tiny head proudly. “Hmph. Only your planet, sealed in its own world, can develop on its own.”
Gu Qingming immediately stared at him suspiciously. “Are we sealed off?”
The space elf said truthfully. “Actually, it’s your planet’s sense of self-preservation that creates a thick protective circle which prevents the aliens from penetrating it and entering the planet. That’s why your planet is safe and sound. Understand?”
Gu Qingming nodded to show that she understood.
She did know. The aqua-blue planet had a thick atmosphere. Everything the universe flew over would burn as it penetrated the atmosphere, leaving nothing behind.
However, Gu Qingming immediately looked at the spatial spirit suspiciously and asked, “In that case, you’re not a creature of this planet at all. Then where are you from in the universe? And why are you on here?”
The space fairy looked forlorn and nostalgic.
It said, “I’m from the Elven world. Three thousand years ago, I was very curious about the outside world, so I sneaked out of the Elven world.
Unexpectedly, the first world I went to was actually the cultivation world. Some immortals discovered it and wanted me to be their spiritual pet. Some bad immortals even wanted me to be a refining material or use me to refine pills and medicine.
I was fleeing in a hurry when I ran into the cosmic storm. The bad immortals who were after me were immediately torn apart.
And I was a little luckier. Just as the cosmic storm came, I happened to encounter a black hole. Then, I landed on this aqua planet.”
“Oh, what a poor child!” Gu Qingming touched his little head, but then she thought of something and asked seriously, “That’s not right. Didn’t you say that our planet has a protective layer that outsiders can’t enter? Then how did you enter?”
She couldn’t just go along with whatever the elf said. Besides, this elf kept calling her master. She had to find out what was going on.
