Chapter 59 Little Fox
Chapter 59 Little Fox
"A soul beast that's one hundred thousand years old? Xiyao, are you sure?" Zhao Wuji was shocked. It means one hundred thousand years old just by opening his mouth?
When the little monsters heard Leng Xiyao's words, which didn't sound like a joke at all, their mouths looked like they could fit a goose egg in them, and they were obviously scared.
"Of course. If we go deeper, it shouldn't be difficult to find a tribe with hundred thousand year old soul beasts, right?" Leng Xiyao spread her hands, not taking this matter too seriously.
After all, the strength of his two hydralisks is equivalent to that of a 90,000-year-old soul beast. Together with Da Huang, hunting down a 100,000-year-old soul beast is not a difficult task.
“Xiyao, I understand the truth, but I’m just a mere Soul Saint. I can’t handle this hundred thousand year old soul beast.” Zhao Wuji felt very uncomfortable. He didn’t know whether the other party was really sure or just boasting. But if something really happened, he couldn’t bear the responsibility!
Flanders will kill him!
Leng Xiyao thought so too. If a fierce battle took place, the little monsters would be in trouble. So she suggested, "How about you go back first? Meng Lan and I can go find them ourselves."
"Sister Yaoyao, take us with you. I believe you must have a plan. If we miss the opportunity to hunt a hundred thousand year soul beast, we will regret it." Tang San glanced at everyone and said righteously.
Except for Xiao Wu, the other little monsters became enthusiastic because of Tang San's words - yes, what a feat it is to be able to participate in hunting a hundred thousand year soul beast?
Zhao Wuji looked at the excited little monsters and sighed helplessly:
"In that case, what else is there to say? Let's go."
There are indeed quite a few hundred thousand year old soul beasts in the Star Dou Great Forest. After the insect swarm's carpet search, Leng Xiyao has already discovered ten of them.
but
"Oh, don't kill me, I'm just a cute little fox. Oh, oh." A little fox with white fur had its tail lifted up by an evil hand, and it begged for mercy in panic and cute manner.
"Is this really a hundred thousand year old soul beast?"
Looking at this little fox that could speak, everyone in Shrek was stunned. Shouldn't the legendary hundred thousand year soul beast be a ferocious and terrifying existence that is not afraid of anyone and kills anyone on sight?
What the hell is this?
Of course Leng Xiyao would not kill such a cute little fox, but because she was so cute, she couldn't help but let Da Huang catch it and play with it.
She had long known that there were many gentle soul beasts living in the Star Dou Great Forest. These soul beasts were not aggressive towards others and regarded the entire forest as their own amusement park. Of course, the combat effectiveness of these gentle soul beasts was extremely low, and they had to go all out when facing soul beasts with one tenth of their own cultivation. However, their ability to escape or withstand a beating was far beyond the reach of those ferocious beasts.
Just refer to Tianmeng Ice Silkworm.
Some gentle soul beasts choose to practice more combat skills in order to fight against those vicious soul beasts that advocate killing, but these soul beasts are still unwilling to cause trouble and only want to protect themselves.
Therefore, this kind of soul beast is not on Leng Xiyao's hunting list. The hundred thousand year soul beasts discovered previously are almost all gentle. They just want to live a peaceful life in a corner, so why bother disturbing them?
In addition, there is a more special existence, that is, some lower-level soul beasts that have had an encounter. For example, eating some fruit, chewing some ice cubes, or drinking some spring water may help them grow quickly to the level of 100,000 years.
Just like the little fox in front of you.
"Ah, little fox, I don't mean any harm, I just want to ask you, do you know if there are any warlike beast tribes nearby?" Leng Xiyao touched the little fox's fur. The comfortable touch gave her goose bumps. It would be great if she could carry it with her all the time and use it as a pillow!
The little fox felt very aggrieved. She was taking a leisurely walk in the forest, and was suddenly robbed by a huge monster whose race she couldn't even name.
It is said that all her abilities are related to escape, so she will never be caught.
But the monster had a kind of blood pressure that she couldn't resist, and she was so scared that she forgot to run away.
Then he was caught.
"If I tell you, will you let me go?" The little fox looked at Leng Xiyao aggrievedly, just like a young wife who was raped.
Leng Xiyao stroked the little fox's very comfortable fur twice, and suddenly she found it difficult to say the words of agreement.
"Hehe, Xiaoli, why don't you follow me? What's the point of wandering in this forest?" Leng Xiyao gave the other party a name in a very familiar manner. For such a little cutie, she really wanted to keep him!
"I, I don't want you to be a bad person. You caught me...you..." When the little fox heard this, he couldn't help but shed tears, as if he was going to be eaten.
As if thinking of something terrible, the little fox trembled twice, closed its eyes, stretched its head forward, clenched its teeth, and looked like a chaste heroine:
"You, just kill me! I won't let you humiliate me!"
Leng Xiyao was amused by this dramatic little fox. Since it was unwilling to follow her, Leng Xiyao couldn't force it, so she put it on the ground and said:
"Alright, alright. I won't take you home. As an apology, I'll let Da Huang escort you home. Where is your home?"
The little fox was a little surprised to feel grounded again. She thought this human was going to kill her to take her soul ring and soul bone or to enslave her. She didn't expect that the other party was really willing to let her go.
"I have no home. My tribe was killed hundreds of years ago, and now I'm the only one left..." Hearing the word home, the little fox became obviously lost. Although she has lived in this forest for hundreds and thousands of years, she has been living in thrilling conditions all the time, with no fixed place to live and enemies all over the world. This is the portrayal of a weak soul beast like her.
Even if her strength reached 100,000 years by some coincidence, it would still be the same, with almost no room for survival.
Leng Xiyao was silent. Somehow, when she looked at the little fox, she seemed to see herself when she first came to Douluo Continent. Da Huang had not come yet, and she had not met Meng Lan. She was struggling to survive in Wuhun City alone. Those were the days she least wanted to recall.
"If you don't have any family, why not let me be your family?" Somehow, Leng Xiyao blurted out these very sincere words, perhaps because of empathy or something else. In short, Leng Xiyao is now more willing to regard her as a partner, instead of thinking of her as a soft 'toy' like before.
"Family?" The little fox looked blankly at Leng Xiyao, who had a sincere face. Although her fighting ability was not strong, her perception ability was far beyond that of ordinary people. She could easily sense other people's kindness or malice, or predict the enemy's actions.
The feeling Leng Xiyao gave her was a kind of sincerity that she had never felt in her hundreds or thousands of years of life.
Leng Xiyao smiled slightly and picked her up again, but this time, the little fox did not struggle at all.
"Yes, we will be a family from now on."
