Engagement Canceled: I Can Extract Prefixes

Chapter 50: The Fairy Who Lost Her Power


After a night passed, when he woke up again, the sky was already bright.

He seemed to have slept for quite a while, and Shen Han felt especially hungry.

He looked up and saw that the Fairy sitting not far away had already woken up.

She probably had never encountered such a powerless version of herself, curling up unconsciously, looking somewhat pitiful...

Just yesterday, she was still a top expert capable of flying through the air.

This kind of disparity would be hard for anyone to accept.

Shen Han rummaged through his bag and took out two pieces of baked bread.

He handed them to the Fairy along with a water bottle.

The Fairy looked up, hesitated for a moment, then accepted the bread.

"All my items are in the Qiankun Ring, but it can't be opened here..."

The Fairy explained softly.

The Qiankun Ring is a treasure for storing items, but within this Immortal Extinction Array, all the Laws are covered.

Items like the Qiankun Ring that use the Space Law naturally cannot be opened.

Clearly, Shen Han, this poor boy, couldn't afford a Qiankun Ring, so he obediently carried a bag, which turned out to be more useful.

"It's fine, I brought plenty of baked bread, enough for two or three days."

"Sharing this food with me might end up burdening you..."

"You paid a whole fifty taels for me, which could buy at least a thousand pieces of baked bread, so giving away a few means I'm actually profiting.

Besides, you also gave me a Jade Pendant. Without it, I wouldn't have made it till now."

Hearing Shen Han's words, the Fairy didn't say more.

She just sighed at the wonder of the world in her heart.

The young person she helped casually was now the one saving her in a life-and-death situation...

While eating the bread, Shen Han was a bit puzzled and took the opportunity to ask.

"Senior, how long do we have to wait in this forest?"

This was the question Shen Han was most concerned about, as he and Shen Lingsheng had an agreed deadline.

If he doesn't return home in three months and no one hears from him, someone like Shen Lingsheng would immediately harm Cailing.

He had to keep track of time to ensure Cailing wasn't harmed.

Upon hearing this question, the Fairy frowned slightly.

"It's hard to say, but when outsiders try to come in, they will certainly close this Immortal Extinction Array.

If there are no unexpected events, they might wait for everyone entangled by the thorny vines to perish before coming in.

For safety, they might wait for a month..."

A month would be acceptable for Shen Han.

"Just wondering if we can make it till then..."

The Fairy was a bit pessimistic, as the loss of power made her lose the confidence of her past.

Without her cultivation power, she was merely a weak woman...

"Don't worry, Senior. Surviving in the forest isn't hard. There's a lake over there.

With water supply and the most basic survival food, a month shouldn't be an issue."

Saying this, Shen Han stood up, planning to gather some wooden planks to construct a place for shade and shelter from the rain.

In a month without martial strength, one must be vigilant about colds, otherwise, it could be fatal!

Seeing Shen Han stand up, the Fairy also prepared to help.

But as soon as she stood up, a wound pulled painfully, and she couldn't help but let out a soft groan.

The biggest problem wasn't the wound pain; her clothes had been torn in several places by thorny spikes.

Standing up, some snow-white hidden areas were exposed, and she hadn't realized it, enduring the pain in an attempt to help.

"Senior..."

"I'm fine. If I want to survive in this forest, I have to help somehow."

"Senior, that's not what I meant, it's your..."

Shen Han turned his head away and gestured to the Fairy's clothes.

Looking down, she finally reacted and quickly squatted down to cover up.

Her pretty face instantly turned crimson red, filled with embarrassment.

Shen Han took his clothing from the bag and placed it in front of the Fairy.

"Junior will go outside to explore; it might take one or two two-hours before I return..."

With that, Shen Han took his longsword and walked away.

Watching Shen Han walk away, the burning face gradually calmed down.

Having lived for over thirty years, this was Shi Yuezhu's first encounter with such an embarrassing situation.

The clothing in front of her was of a very cheap linen material, definitely uncomfortable to wear, but still better than her own torn clothes.

After hesitating for a moment, Shi Yuezhu opted to put on the linen clothing.

It felt quite loose, more comfortable than she had imagined.

On the other side, Shen Han's mind was also in a jumble.

Trying to control his thoughts, but the scene of that snowy white flashed in his mind repeatedly...

Such things genuinely captivate a boy's attention.

Especially Shen Han, who was a young man, full of vigor...

"Stop it! She is a senior, stop thinking about it..."

One can control what they want to think about, but it's hard to control what not to think about.

Despite his verbal reminders, the images kept appearing more frequently in his mind.

The forest was quiet, with only occasional bird chirps.

Cautiously watching around, Shen Han tried to memorize the surrounding environment.

The forest was fraught with danger; with martial power ineffective, even beasts once dismissed could become dangerous.

Gripping his sword, he felt a bit reassured in his heart.

After thoroughly investigating the area, Shen Han found some unknown fruit.

They looked somewhat like smaller pears.

Focusing on them for a moment, gray text appeared.

[Fruit containing toxins]

For others, these fruits would naturally be inedible.

But with his ability to extract prefix entries, he wasn't worried.

Extracting the [containing toxins] entry, Shen Han shoved the fruit into his mouth and took a bite.

It was juicy and quite refreshing.

Wrapping them in the corner of his shirt, he picked plenty to bring back.

After circling the area, Shen Han didn't find any traces of predators.

No footprints or large piles of droppings were visible.

The forest seemed to lack large predators.

However, he saw plenty of small animal traces—wild rabbits and birds were common.

After wandering outside for nearly a two-hour, Shen Han headed back to their temporary place.

"Senior, I picked some fruits to bring back."

Even from a distance from the camp, Shen Han shouted.

Shi Yuezhu responded promptly, realizing Shen Han's intention was to avoid embarrassment if she hadn't changed clothes.

This young man was indeed polite...

As he approached, Shen Han's gaze unconsciously fell on Shi Yuezhu.

The linen clothing was a bit loose and oversized for Shi Yuezhu.

As she wore it, a lazy appearance was unintentionally revealed.

The clothing hung off her, subtly hinting at her graceful figure, looking quite charming...

After taking a few glances, he took a deep breath and averted his eyes...
