Apocalypse: The Supporting Actress Made a Comeback novel Chapter 36

Chapter 36: 034 Breaking the Silence

Bai Qianqian held the gray Elemental Crystal lovingly, her eyes sparkling with delight. Sensing Fang Yuxin's gaze, he turned to look at her, batting his big eyes, and happily presented the Elemental Crystal in front of Fang Yuxin, "Mama, what is this? It feels so comfortable to touch." _{ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom}

Fang Yuxin looked at his face that seemed to be asking for praise, and couldn't help but pinch it. As soon as she did, Bai Qianqian's bun-like cheeks instantly flushed with the urge to dodge, yet he couldn't bear to pull away. Had it been anyone else, he wouldn't have let them pinch his cheeks, but Fang Yuxin was different; she was the "Mama" Bai Qianqian had long been looking forward to.

Fang Yuxin was amused by his expression and couldn't help but let out a "pfft" of laughter. Seeing Bai Qianqian promptly pout his bun-like face, she cleared her throat and complimented, "Qianqian, you're so amazing!"

Upon hearing her praise, Bai Qianqian's mouth couldn't help but curve into a smile. Then, it suddenly occurred to him that Fang Yuxin hadn't yet answered his question! Holding the Elemental Crystal, he felt an inexplicable comfort. He had a faint sense that there was a special energy within it that he very much desired.

Bai Qianqian couldn't resist asking again, "Mama, what exactly is this?"

There was no need for secrecy anymore, so Fang Yuxin said, "This one is a Spiritual Element Essence Crystal, which matches your superpower. You can absorb it to enhance your superpower talent. Qianqian, do you understand?"

Bai Qianqian thought for a moment and then nodded before asking, "Mama, can I absorb it now?" He had been longing to absorb the Elemental Crystal that had been drawing him in for quite some time.

Fang Yuxin was somewhat worried; after all, Bai Qianqian was still a child, and this was his first time absorbing an Elemental Crystal. What if something went wrong? Besides, now wasn't the right moment. She remembered that absorbing an Elemental Crystal couldn't be interrupted, so it was best done within the Qingmu Spiritual Mansion.

She shook her head and cautioned Bai Qianqian, "Qianqian, listen to Mom, it's not the right time now. We should wait until it's dark and change locations before absorbing it."

Bai Qianqian immediately thought of Fang Yuxin's Qingmu Spiritual Mansion and obediently agreed. Although he really wanted to absorb the Elemental Crystal in his hands right away, since Fang Yuxin had said so, he would just do as told.

At this time, Fang Yuyang, Fang Jintang, and Qu Qianhe had also finished cutting their Elemental Stones. Qu Qianhe was luckier; after cutting it open, she found an Earth Element Essence Crystal, whereas Fang Yuyang and Fang Jintang were less fortunate; the stones they opened contained no crystals and were empty stones.

However, Qu Qianhe was a Fire Ability user, and Fang Jintang was of the Earth Element, so the Earth Element Essence Crystal, which Qu Qianhe couldn't use herself, ended up benefiting Fang Jintang.

By then, it was six o'clock in the evening, and Fang Yuxin suggested they have dinner. The natural gas supply had already been cut off, but fortunately, they had prepared plenty of gas cylinders and weren't worried about being unable to cook. While Fang Yuxin and Qu Qianhe were preparing dinner, the other three weren't idle either and were cutting more Elemental Stones.
