This Female Celebrity Comes from the Cultivation World

Chapter 21: Fire Spirit



Chapter 21

"I estimate someone will want to come interview you tonight..." Xu Kai chattered on endlessly, already imagining how busy his work would become now that Song Jixing's name had burst out.

"Isn't the evening rest time? There's still work?" Song Jixing played dumb.

Xu Kai was taken aback for a moment, then gently said, "Sister Song, you see, you don't have work in the afternoon, so you can rest for a while in the afternoon and use the evening time to do an interview, okay?" Work hours have to be a little flexible.

"Can I not accept it?!" Song Jixing refused. The main reason was that her palm was too hot, not that she really wanted to slack off.

Xu Kai: ...

Having worked with Song Jixing for several years, Xu Kai naturally understood what kind of temperament Song Jixing had, so he changed his tone.

"I'll take care of the cooperative matters first and send you some information tonight for you to take a look yourself. There will definitely be people coming to interview you tomorrow! What time can you get to the company..."

"I can come at eight!" Song Jixing gave a very precise time.

Xu Kai was a little dumbfounded when he heard it, but also found it reasonable. This was indeed Song Jixing, the real Song Jixing. No one could rush her to be more ambitious.

"Okay, then I'll arrange a temporary assistant for you later. If you need anything, just ask her." The two were talking as they arrived at the elevator entrance.

Chen Rong's office was on the top floor, while Xu Kai's was on the sixth floor.

Xu Kai was going to take Song Jixing to his office first, introduce her to the new assistant, and hand over the work schedule.

The two got on the elevator, and Xu Kai was still chattering endlessly about the recent work schedule, while also urging Song Jixing to take care of her skin and other daily matters.

Song Jixing touched her burning palm, distracted as she responded. She didn't know who would pop out later.

Suddenly, with a crack, the elevator stopped.

Xu Kai immediately stopped talking, and looked at the stalled elevator display with concern: "What's going on?"

In an instant, the lights in the elevator went out.

Song Jixing felt the sting in her palm, and also noticed an extra breath suddenly appearing behind her.

"What is...this place?" A childish voice rang out in the pitch-black elevator.

Xu Kai had just taken out his phone to make a call when he heard this sudden voice and was so frightened that he shuddered, breaking out in a cold sweat.

"Did you hear any weird sounds, Sister Song..." Xu Kai said in a small voice, vaguely with some crying tones.

Song Jixing had just used her spiritual power to damage the surveillance camera in the elevator. Another disciple had been sent from the sect, so she had to finish the cleanup work.

As soon as her words fell, the lights in the elevator suddenly came on again.

Xu Kai was immediately much more relaxed, and let out a heavy breath, preparing to turn around to talk to Song Jixing.

But he suddenly saw the red corner behind Song Jixing.

He stiffly moved his neck to see the owner of that corner—a little doll in a red dress, with a pale complexion and blood-red eyes!

This...

Could this be...

"A ghost!" Xu Kai let out one last shrill scream! He closed his eyes directly, put out both hands, and fainted on the spot.

Huo Ling'er tilted her head and glanced at the man dressed in strange clothes lying on the ground, then glanced at the other person dressed in strange clothes.

Huo Ling'er recognized Song Jixing before her eyes. Her eyes lit up and she was a little excited to greet her. "Elder Song!"

Song Jixing smiled bitterly. Her hand was slow and she didn't throw out the magic trick in time. "Huo Ling'er, long time no see! The situation is a bit complicated. I'll explain it to you later."

Huo Ling'er nodded obediently.

Huo Ling'er's original form was a Spirit Fire Crystal. She was born in a Spirit Fire Crystal vein. Spiritual energy can not only help ordinary people transform, but also nurture treasures that open up spiritual wisdom. Huo Ling'er was one of them. Spirit Fire Crystals are extremely rare in the cultivation world and have wonderful effects on training fire spirit roots. Compared with spirit energy, it is like racing ahead.

Although Spirit Fire Crystals are rare, Spirit Fire Crystals that nurture wisdom are even rarer. Although cultivators digging and seizing treasures of heaven and earth is commonplace, treasures that open wisdom are generally left untouched. Such treasures are especially favored by heaven and earth. If their life is injured, there will be backlash from the Heavenly Dao. The cultivation sect Song Jixing belongs to happened to obtain such a Spirit Fire Crystal that had awakened wisdom.

In short, Huo Ling'er was a delicate mascot.

Protecting and cherishing species is everyone's responsibility, and Song Jixing naturally could not shirk it.

The sudden elevator failure should have been affected by Huo Ling'er's sudden appearance. As for Huo Ling'er's appearance, it must have been related to the fragment of the god cauldron in Song Jixing's hand.

Now that Huo Ling'er had arrived, the elevator also resumed normal operation.

When it reached the sixth floor, Song Jixing supported Xu Kai and hurried out of the elevator. She casually pincheda magic trick on Huo Ling'er to hide his figure.

Song Jixing had limited spiritual power. She couldn't waste it all on destroying surveillance cameras. Moreover, damaging someone else's property for no reason would be detrimental to cultivation.

With the invisibility magic on Huo Ling'er, Song Jixing had to make quick work of things!

The first thing Song Jixing did after getting out of the elevator was to help Xu Kai to the office door.

"Can someone come help?" Song Jixing shouted.

The busy people looked over when they heard the shout. They recognized Xu Kai next to Song Jixing and hurried over to help.

"What's going on here? Why did he faint?"

"Did something happen?"

Song Jixing's expression remained unchanged. "The elevator broke down just now and it went dark for a moment. Brother Xu seems to have claustrophobia and fainted."

Everyone suddenly realized what had happened and hurriedly carried Xu Kai to the rest area next door.

"Should we call 120?"

"Oh, his eyelids are fluttering, he's waking up!"

Seeing that Xu Kai was about to wake up, Song Jixing hurried away!

Song Jixing said, "You guys go ahead and get busy! I still have something urgent to deal with... I have to go."

"Okay, thanks for your hard work!"

The people saw the folder with the company logo in Song Jixing's hand and her elegant and otherworldly appearance, and did not doubt her, only regarding Song Jixing as an employee of the company.

Song Jixing took Huo Ling'er down the elevator.

The revolving door at the entrance of Lanying Film and Television Company was quite distinctive, not only spacious, but also decorated with many fresh potted plants, flowers, posters and more.

Taking advantage of no one around, Song Jixing took Huo Ling'er for a spin in the revolving door, bringing her out. She dispelled the invisibility magic on Huo Ling'er, and pinched a magic trick to hide Huo Ling'er's red pupils.

Huo Ling'er was born with fire eyes that even glowed.

It was best to conserve spiritual power whenever possible.

Since they were out of the company, she had to go deal with the next thing.

"I'll hail a taxi and take you to buy some clothes!" Song Jixing held Huo Ling'er's hand and spoke extremely skillfully.

Huo Ling'er looked at this world curiously, not saying much, just nodding lightly.

Song Jixing casually hailed a taxi to take Huo Ling'er to the mall to buy color contacts.

Although Huo Ling'er's outfit was striking, changing clothes would solve that. But her eyes had to be dealt with. The best idea Song Jixing could think of was to wear color contacts.
