Chapter 285 - Awakening, The Tofu Near My Lips Disappeared (1)
"Little Fire likes Mommy too," the kitten said happily.
"Erm, Little Fire! Can you not call me Mommy?!" Leng Ruoxue was at a loss for words. Boohoo… I"m not married yet!
"Why? Mommy is the first person I saw when I opened my eyes, so you are my mother," Little Fire said stubbornly.
"Um… Little Fire, you can call me Big Sister!" Leng Ruoxue coaxed patiently.
"Little Fire doesn"t want to. Mommy is Mommy. Boohoo… Mommy hates Little Fire." Tears welled up in Little Fire"s eyes and dripped onto the ground like pearls.
"Okay, okay, don"t cry. If you continue crying, I really won"t want you anymore," Leng Ruoxue threatened, feeling a little headache.
"I won"t cry anymore. Mommy, don"t abandon me." Little Fire quickly stopped crying and lay on Leng Ruoxue"s palm obediently.
"Good." Leng Ruoxue caressed Little Fire"s soft fur.
"Haha, d.a.m.n girl, I"ve given you the ten-thousand-year-old fire lotus you wanted. You have to take good care of it!" The mechanical voice sounded a little smug.
"Don"t worry. I"ll take good care of it," Leng Ruoxue said through gritted teeth.
"What about our other rewards?" Leng Ruoxue asked.
"Each of you will receive twenty-five thousand points. This is the reward for the top two. Also, you can scram now." A ring floated to Ming Huan"s hand, and then the mechanical voice completely disappeared.
"Miss Leng, we have divided the rewards for first and second equally," Ming Huan said.
"No need. We don"t need them. But I want to know what those two divine beasts are," Leng Ruoxue said curiously.
"Let me see." Ming Huan dripped a drop of blood onto the ring and then sent his divine sense inside.
"Uh, it"s a snake and a scorpion," Ming Huan said after looking at them.
"The snake king and the scorpion king?" Leng Ruoxue narrowed her beautiful eyes coldly.
"Uh! Yes," Ming Huan answered fearfully, but he was puzzled. Does Leng Ruoxue have a feud with these two beasts?
"Ming Huan, I need some snake venom and scorpion venom. Let them out to spit some out for me!" Leng Ruoxue said with a light smile.
"Okay." Ming Huan knew that he had taken the biggest advantage, so he couldn"t refuse Leng Ruoxue"s small request.
Ming Huan released the snake king and the scorpion king from the ring. But for some reason, the two beasts felt fear in their hearts as they looked at Leng Ruoxue not far away.
Leng Ruoxue took out two small jade bottles, placed them in front of the two beasts, and commanded in a tone that accepted no refusal, "Fill my bottles with your poison!"
"Uhh!" The two beasts looked at each other, but neither of them moved.
"Didn"t you hear what my master said?" Feng Zhan"s dark red phoenix eyes narrowed with displeasure.
"Yes, Sir." The two beasts were terrified, and they were resigned to their fates as they began to spit out the venom.
"Xue"er, why can these small bottles of yours hold so much?" Leng Ruohan whispered in puzzlement. The snake king and the scorpion king had been spitting for two hours, and they were so tired that they were about to collapse, but the small jade bottles were still not full. It was too unbelievable.
"Of course it"s because they were refined with a special technique. There is basically a s.p.a.ce inside," Leng Ruoxue explained simply.
Upon hearing what his sister said, Leng Ruohan felt some pity for the snake king and the scorpion king. Alas! How pitiful! But your subordinates offended our little princess! Serves you right for suffering!
Another hour later, the snake king and the scorpion king were still spitting venom into the jade bottles…
"Alright, that"s enough! Seems like you won"t be able to fill them," Leng Ruoxue said with some dissatisfaction. Her face was full of contempt, as though she was saying, "You"re really too useless".
Upon hearing that they didn"t need to spit anymore, the two beasts collapsed onto the ground while panting heavily from exhaustion. If not for the fact that they were really too tired, Leng Ruoxue"s words would definitely have made them vomit blood.
Helplessly, Ming Huan stored the two exhausted divine beasts back into his ring and then said to Leng Ruoxue, "Miss Leng, let"s go!"
"Okay, please go first!" Leng Ruoxue said politely.
"Farewell." Ming Huan nodded at Leng Ruoxue and the others before leaving with his team.
"Grandpa, shall we leave?" Leng Ruoxue asked after Ming Huan and his team left.
"Let"s go!" Leng Qingtian nodded.
Everyone walked toward the teleportation array together.
"La.s.s! Which one should we choose?" Old Zao asked curiously, not knowing where their next destination would be.
"Right!" Leng Ruoxue said after some thought. Since Ming Huan"s team chose the left one, they had to choose the right one.
After choosing, everyone set off.
After another flash of light, Leng Ruoxue and the others were transported to a mountain range.
b.u.t.terfly flew in front of Leng Ruoxue and said happily, "Girl, a mountain range isn"t bad!"
"Yes." Leng Ruoxue nodded. She looked at the steep mountain range shrouded in white mist from halfway up the mountains, which towered into the clouds, and a feeling of heroism welled up in her.
"Grandpa, let"s spend the night outside the mountains. We"ll go in early tomorrow!" Leng Ruoxue said to Leng Qingtian and the others after some thought.
"Okay. We"ve been hungry for some time." Leng Qingtian nodded in agreement.
After everyone went back into the bracelet, they had dinner and then returned to their rooms to rest.
Holding the little mink in her arms, Leng Ruoxue entered the purple bamboo house.
Leng Ruoxue"s mood was very complicated as she looked at Freak lying on the purple jade bed.
"Xue"er, what"s wrong?" the little silver mink couldn"t help asking when he saw that she was a little down.
"I want to save Freak," Leng Ruoxue said slowly after a while.
"With the ten-thousand-year-old fire lotus, he can wake up as long as you concoct a fire lotus pill," the little silver mink said happily. Boohoo… I can finally wake up. It really wasn"t easy.
