Chapter 375: Chapter 375
Shangguan Xiao frowned, landing on the green land of Beast World with a face full of disgust.
Her luxurious palanquin had fallen to the ground and could no longer fly; even the eight "palanquin bearers" had disappeared along with it.
She raised her hand to cover her nose. "What kind of trash world is this? Why does it feel like my power is being restricted, and even the palanquin can’t fly? The spiritual energy here is so poor and the land so barren, This Young Miss can’t be expected to walk everywhere, can she?"
Guang Lie pointed to the birds in the sky. "If you grow wings, you could fly."
Shangguan Xiao: "..."
"Are you freakin’ sick? Do you see any wings on my back?"
Guang Lie: "Miss, what should we do now?"
Shangguan Xiao was speechless.
Just then, the nearby jungle stirred, and suddenly, several male wild beasts appeared around them.
Shangguan Xiao didn’t recognize these wild beasts as Beastmen, and she waved her power, preparing to exterminate them.
But she found that due to the world’s restrictions, her power had dwindled to mere wisps, becoming faint and ineffective.
Shangguan Xiao: "..." What the hell kind of crappy world is this!
Then she said, "Guang Lie, think of something fast! If not, we’ll have to run!"
However, at that moment, the wild animals transformed into their Beastman forms, boldly standing naked in front of Shangguan Xiao.
A sacred light illuminated the land!
Shangguan Xiao: "..."
Shangguan Xiao’s blood rushed to her face, her cheeks flushing red with panic as she screamed, "AH AH AH AH AH AH AH!!! Perverts! AH AH AH AH AH AH!!!"
"What’s wrong with that female?"
"Her clothes are so strange."
"She looks so skinny. Can she even bear children?"
"Can our tribe gain another female?"
"I hope her personality is at least bearable."
Shangguan Xiao was shocked and immediately ran for it. "Perverts! AH AH AH!!! They are all perverts! AH AH AH AH AH!!"
The handsome male Beastmen were utterly confused. "What’s wrong with her?"
Shangguan Xiao ran until she was exhausted, visibly exasperated as she leaned against a tree trunk, panting for breath.
Guang Lie followed behind and handed her a cup of water. "Miss."
Shangguan Xiao gulped down the water. "What the heck is going on here?"
Guang Lie said, "This place might be a barbarian world, where civilization hasn’t developed yet, and the barbarians lack manners and shame."
Shangguan Xiao was frantic. "Why would Ming Jiu want to stay in a world ?!"
She suddenly remembered the sight of a group of male Beastmen abruptly turning into human form, standing stark naked before her.
She couldn’t help but blush profusely as twin trails of a nosebleed streamed down.
Guang Lie immediately found a handkerchief for her to wipe the nosebleed.
Shangguan Xiao quickly wiped it off and then warned, "This is my embarrassing past; you’re not to tell anyone. Or else, watch your head, got it?"
"Check quickly, find out where Ming Jiu is. I really can’t stay here a moment longer!"
Guang Lie took out the Panorama Disk and fiddled with the Panorama Needle until it finally steadied. Then he said, "Strange, the needle is wavering between south and north..."
Shangguan Xiao leaned over to look. "Where is it? Where exactly?"
Guang Lie felt the needle tremble even more violently when it pointed north, so he said, "It should be in the north."
Shangguan Xiao said, "Then what are we waiting for? Let’s hurry up and go."
Guang Lie replied, "Oh."
Shangguan Xiao’s magical instrument could no longer be used, so she could only rely on her legs to walk, strutting arrogantly.
But very soon, a fearsome Lion Beastman with terrible scars on his face blocked her way.
Shangguan Xiao was startled, but she immediately stood tall and puffed out her chest, appearing particularly fierce. "You think you can stop me?"
The Lion Beastman looked ferocious, but then suddenly bowed his head. "Beautiful female, I am the new Lion King of the Lion Tribe. Would you mate with me?"
Goosebumps spread from the top of Shangguan Xiao’s head down to the soles of her feet.
"AAAAAAAAHHHHHH! I don’t want to mate with a lion! AAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!"
Watching the female run away so quickly, the Lion Beastman felt particularly dejected.
It must be because I’m too ugly that the female rejected me.
Shangguan Xiao ran again.
Guang Lie finally caught up with Shangguan Xiao.
Shangguan Xiao pulled Guang Lie and said, "Why is there such a scary world? It’s really too terrifying! To open with a mating proposal—the customs here are too loose, the males are too bold!!"
Shangguan Xiao said in a fit of anger, "When I get back to the Divine Temple, I will definitely make Mother destroy this world. Such a terrible world of perverts should not exist."
Guang Lie offered her a handkerchief again. After she wiped her face with it, she said with determination, "Let’s go. We head north to find Ming Jiu."
Inside the cave, Si Yan and Ming Ji were staring at each other.
Ming Ji said, "The avalanche is over."
Si Yan played with a gun in one hand, and with the other, she twirled a blood droplet bauble and nodded. "It’s finally passed."
Then, the siblings sighed in unison. "SIGH."
Ming Ji said, "Si Yan, I’ll take you out again. We need to be a little more careful this time, not to cause another avalanche."
Si Yan nodded vigorously, saying earnestly, "Yes! There won’t be another avalanche this time!"
Leaving the cave, Ming Ji trod the snowy path ahead. "The cave I chose is quite high, so when there’s an avalanche, you have to hide. Other Beastmen observe the direction of the avalanches and generally pick less prone spots for their homes."
Si Yan looked Ming Ji up and down several times. "It’s truly amazing you’ve managed to survive this long."
Ming Ji’s mouth twitched as he said, "I can fly. Avalanches mean nothing to me."
Si Yan said, "Alright then. By the way, besides snow, is there anything else nice to look at on this snow mountain?"
At this, Ming Ji’s interest was piqued. "At the foot of the snow mountain, in the snow forest, there’s a Frozen Lake with many glowing Pearl Shells. These Pearl Shells are precious; their pearls contain a large amount of cold air, enough to freeze even a god."
Excitedly, Ming Ji said, "I’ll go collect some Pearl Shells for you."
Si Yan and Ming Ji arrived at the Frozen Lake at the foot of the snow mountain. In temperatures of minus thirty to forty degrees, this section of the Frozen Lake was surprisingly not frozen solid.
The icy surface of the lake reflected the shimmering light of the water.
It was cold and beautiful.
Ming Ji, with his robust body, was the only one who dared to enter the lake.
Before long, he had collected more than a dozen Ice Pearl Shells. After using a spell to dry his body, he and Si Yan started to extract the Ice Pearls from the shells on the shore.
While digging, Ming Ji said, "I actually discovered these by accident. I once used these to freeze Ming Jiu. Later on, you take these and practice, and we can go freeze some gods for fun."
Images of either Ming Jiu or Old Gecko frozen solid surfaced in Si Yan’s mind.
Suddenly, she cracked a smile.
