Ch 28: Are Little Females Always This Up and Down?
Why are you spacing out at this time?
Si Shuo hurriedly pressed her hands against Xu Chi’s back, wanting to pull her legs out from his arms, to run away first.
But the male’s strength was great, she couldn’t move even a bit, making her so anxious that her eyes reddened:
“Xu Chi, put me down, that Crested Eagle Beastman is not good-looking, and his personality is not good either, he’s a rogue beast who robs and loots, I don’t want to be captured by him…”
But Xu Chi still remained unmoved, letting that Crested Eagle Beastman continue to swoop down, with excited and sharp cries.
Si Shuo’s heart beat extremely fast, her voice trembling: “You, you aren’t in cahoots with him, are you? Or do you want to submit to him and use me as a token of allegiance?”
I was really dazed by the stink bug grass, to think you were harmless and trust you so much…”
This beast is really too bad, so scheming, letting her lower her guard bit by bit, for a counter-attack!
Well done, he was just waiting for this confused cat to walk right into his trap.
“I’m telling you, once I follow this Crested Eagle Beastman, the first step is to tie you up and use you as bait!”
She said angrily, but her tears were already streaming down due to fear.
Xu Chi sighed, “No, I’m helping you vent your anger.”
Si Shuo made a sound of surprise, helping her vent her anger while she was still standing?
But then she saw a whirlwind appear out of thin air, heading towards that Crested Eagle Beastman.
The Crested Eagle Beastman braked sharply in mid-air, but before he could soar into the sky, the whirlwind, like a blender, made swishing sounds, sending eagle feathers and down flying everywhere, and with a thud, a large, plucked chicken fell to the ground.
Tears were still hanging on Si Shuo’s face, but seeing this, she frantically patted Xu Chi’s shoulder, laughing non-stop:
“Oh my goodness, Xu Chi, you’re amazing!
How did you think of such a damaging method?”
Xu Chi…
Are little females always this up and down?
One moment crying, cursing, and hitting, the next moment laughing and shaking like a bug.
The Crested Eagle Beastman was filled with shame and anger, covering himself with his plucked wings. He didn’t bring any beast hide, and without his feathers, he couldn’t fly, and transforming into his human form, he was also naked.
He screamed, and without fighting, he turned and ran away.
After the person left, Si Shuo laughed for a while longer, then said softly and embarrassedly: “Xu Chi, I’m sorry, I, I was too scared just now, and I spoke without thinking and wronged you.”
Xu Chi hummed: “Don’t be afraid, I will protect you.”
Si Shuo turned her head to look at him, Xu Chi was exquisitely beautiful, and had a kind of detached calmness.
She couldn’t see a trace of emotion, whether he was happy or angry.
Xu Chi continued to carry her, leaping forward, like a swift-footed, water-skimming hero from martial arts novels, his skills exceptionally beautiful and effortless.
“Is your beast form very special?
It seems that when beastmen transform into their beast forms, their combat strength is at its highest.
Haven’t you encountered any powerful wild beasts that made you transform?
Tell me a unique characteristic, and let me guess for fun,” Si Shuo’s heart itched, and her claws itched too, poking his shoulder.
The two of them could be considered to have gone through thick and thin together.
Xu Chi’s expression didn’t change, “Special, haven’t encountered any, has wings.”
Si Shuo’s mind matched the answers to her questions one by one, tsk, could it be that far away from the Dongye Forest, the wild beasts here weren’t very strong?
Xu Chi, a level three beastman, didn’t even need to transform into his beast form?
Si Shuo exclaimed, “It’s really cool to have wings and be able to fly, but it’s a pity you don’t transform, it’s like having them for nothing.”
What has wings?
She counted on her fingers, “Xu Chi is good-looking, he’s definitely not a sparrow or a crested eagle, those kinds of crude birds, is he a peafowl?”
Peafowls are beautiful, but their flying ability is very poor, it’s almost like not having wings at all.
“No, guess again.”
Si Shuo…
He’s really playing along with her? The problem is that this guy’s tone is flat, it feels a bit like a split personality.
◈◈◈
“Ostrich? Ostriches are quite cute, but they run very fast,” they have wings but can’t fly!
“No, guess again.”
“Xu Chi, there are too many beasts with wings, give me another hint.” Si Shuo felt that she couldn’t figure out this question on her own, and she wouldn’t be able to sleep tonight.
“Has horns, I can’t say any more,” Xu Chi insisted.
Si Shuo’s eyes widened, “Has wings and horns, is it a unicorn?”
It’s just, Xu Chi’s hair is flaxen-colored, unicorns are white, but there are other colors, right?
It’s the Beast World continent, after all. Anything is possible.
Xu Chi hummed: “Almost.”
Si Shuo said expectantly: “Then Xu Chi, when you can transform, can you take me flying?”
“Yes.”
“Then when will you transform?”
“Father said, when I reach level fifteen combat strength, or have a female, I can only transform in a moment of danger to the female,” Xu Chi answered her questions seriously, sentence by sentence.
Level fifteen, Si Shuo looked at the poor red three beast stripes on this kid’s neck, when will that be?
She knew that the highest combat strength was the eldest son of the Lu’ni tribe’s leader Wu Chuan, Liwa’s brother from the same father and mother, Hua Pu, who was at level eight combat strength.
This time, he was the one leading the team to the Spring Hunt, otherwise, with him around, how would the surrounding rogue beasts dare to be so presumptuous!
After running for a while, the usually chattering little female fell silent, Xu Chi said calmly: “It won’t be long.”
Si Shuo nodded and hummed.
Not long after, they ran out of the forest, and in the distance, they saw houses built around the lake using trees, leaves, dry grass, mud, and other materials.
But just looking at the tribe’s wooden gate, Si Shuo suddenly discovered a particularly serious problem.
In front of people, she was always the blue-eyed, white-furred mutated cat, playing the role of a female beastman with innate hearing impairment and low fertility.
After the ups and downs, and being seen by Xu Chi using her germination ability, Si Shuo subconsciously gave up, not even bothering to cover up!
Si Shuo took a deep breath, it’s definitely not that she’s stupid or forgetful. She’s simple-minded, not suited to the dangers of society, and was overwhelmed by the stink bug grass, that’s why she made such a low-level mistake.
“Um, Xu Chi, later, whatever I say, give me some face, don’t expose me,” Si Shuo coughed softly, whispering to him.
“Reason.”
If she doesn’t give a reason, he’ll expose her?
Si Shuo sighed: “I’m not from this tribe, I was stolen by that Crested Eagle Beastman just now.
For the safety of both of us, we have to pretend to be weak, to make them lower their guard, that’s how we can act.”
“Okay.”
So concise, she gave two sentences of explanation, and he believed it, no further questioning, no curiosity?
“Who are you?” From afar, the tribe guards saw the two of them and ran forward to ask.
Seeing that Xu Chi was carrying a beautiful little female on his back, their voices softened by three degrees, their eyes shining as they stared at Si Shuo: “Is the little female injured?”
Before Si Shuo could speak, someone turned their head and shouted: “Where’s the witch doctor? There’s an injured little female here…”
But when they got closer, they were choked by the smell of the stink bug grass that hadn’t dissipated yet.
Si Shuo’s body stiffened for a moment, looking at Xu Chi’s expressionless face, could it be that he, like her, had temporarily lost his sense of smell from being exposed to it?
This male is quite nice…
