"Being the vicious supporting female role, isn't Bai Yanran too stupid?" With her pitiful IQ, how could she hold the character? Even if it was the so-called necessary setting for the plot, wasn't this too unfair?
And… how was it possible for the Host to be tortured by such an idiot…
Probably she's stupid just the same, or even worse.
This is a series in which all villains are of low intelligence.
"What did you say, Miss?" Hui Xue looked to the one beside her confusedly. Who was the Miss talking to?
"Nothing." Ming Shu smiled. "Has the egg been cooked?"
Looking back at the egg in the fire, Hui Xue was a bit worried. "Miss, it's a divine beast egg. Is it proper to roast it?"
"What's not proper, it's dead anyway. We are doing good to give it a worthy death." Ming Shu began to talk nonsense seriously.
"…"
It's a divine beast egg! Miss!
Neither a chicken nor duck egg!
After being roasted in the fire for a long time, the "divine egg" didn't even change color. It wasn't stained with any dust.
Ming Shu removed the egg and tapped on it. Cold. In other words, it had been roasted for a long time but did not even grow warm.
"Miss, the fire is coming this way. We'd better leave." Hui Xue peered in the distance; the fire was approaching in a line. It was really urgent they go now.
Ming Shu threw the egg back into the fire and stared at it intently.
"…" Again?
The fire was getting closer and closer, and Hui Xue was getting more and more anxious. She waved Liu Feng to her side to get ready to take Ming Shu forcibly away. But just at this time, the flames three meters away from them seemed to be restrained by something, curling toward the ground.
Ming Shu took a glance at it. Then she removed the egg from the fire again and stood up, patting her clothes. "Let's go."
"…" What?
Now you want to leave?
Didn't you just insist on staying?
"Miss, how's the fire…"
"The big guy is going to show up." Ming Shu slightly curled her lips. "We'd better run quickly, or there won't be any chance later."
The corners of Hui Xue's mouth twitched. Seeing as the Miss was smiling so confidently, Hui Xue thought she would be able to easily defeat anything. But it turned out she was just thinking about running away.
...
Actually, when Ming Shu said they'd better run, she meant they'd better find a proper place to watch the "fun."
Hui Xue was totally speechless. The Miss was now able to tell lies without blushing.
"Are there really dragons here…" Suddenly, Hui Xue widened her eyes, greatly shocked and surprised.
Ming Shu muttered as she chewed on an unknown fruit: "What's so surprising about a dragon skeleton?" Without any meat, what was the point of that? Dislike.
At this time, they were at a higher vantage point. The skeleton of a dragon was slowly breaking out from underneath the ground. The sound of a dragon roaring swept across the forest, and the strong presence of the divine beast seemed to force all on the continent to bend their knees.
"The dragon skeleton is still the dragon!" Hui Xue was excited. "The dragon has already disappeared from the Xuanyuan continent. We should be seeing a dragon skeleton!"
Seeing Hui Xue so excited, Ming Shu focused her attention on the milky-white skeleton and asked, "Could it be eaten?"
"…" The divine beast egg is still in your hand. Are you going to make some soup with dragon bones?
Ugh, the dragon is the head of the divine beasts. It can't be eaten! Cannot!
Is the Miss going mad?
Honglonglong—
The skeleton of the dragon was very large. The moment it broke out, the surrounding mountains began to fall apart. On Ming Shu's side, the earth also swayed, but it didn't go so far as to collapse.
"Miss, look, there's a human." Hui Xue pointed to the tail of the dragon skeleton. A human figure was running up along the spine.
It was precisely Xiao Rufeng.
Xiao Rufeng was having a dogfight with the dragon skeleton as mountains and rocks collapsed and trees and branches flew about, the dragon's roar filled with anger. Xiao Rufeng was knocked down to the ground several times by the skeleton, but she would get up every time and continue to battle.
"You stay here, and don't follow me." Ming Shu made to get down.
Hui Xue widened her eyes again. "What are you going to do, Miss?" Are you really planning to retrieve the dragon skeleton for soup?
Min Shu smiled as she put her finger to her lips. "Shh."
"Miss…"
Ming Shu flashed aside and disappeared into the jungle. Avoiding the main battlefield, Ming Shu sneaked to the edge and found a hidden place to sit down.
After a long time, Xiao Rufeng and the dragon skeleton were still fighting each other. Ming Shu became a bit sleepy and yawned. "Has she finished? Why does it take her so long?"
[… The process of getting a gold finger is usually hard.] It's not that easy to acquire a powerful "weapon," sometimes it may cost you days of battle.
But… Guest, what do you plan to do hiding here?
Why do I always have a feeling that the Guest is planning some evil things…
Amazingly, each time the Guest would find new ways to gain Hatred Points… What was this inexplicable expectation all about?
Ming Shu took out the egg and played around with it since she had nothing better to do now. The thunder cat didn't return after leading the serpent away. She wondered if it had died.
"What?"
Suddenly Ming Shu uttered a surprised sound and loosened her hand. The colorful egg began to rise up slowly, and swirling Qi was gathering around it.
Ming Shu snatched it back again. Then all of a sudden, the accumulated Qi around the egg vanished. Touching the egg, Ming Shu's eyes shone. "Still alive?"
The colorful egg struggled, trying to break away from Ming Shu.
"Let go of me!" The voice of a young child rang out.
"Ah, it can speak." Ming Shu was startled into loosening her grip again. The colorful egg dropped down to the ground with a crisp sound.
"Ahhhh, terrible human." The childish voice sounded a little crazy.
Ming Shu poked at it with a finger. "You asked me to let you go. Why are you angry now? Are you a girl? With such a changeable temper… Uh, were you pretending to be dead?"
The colorful egg rolled opposite her resentfully and answered, "You humans are all bad! You want to absorb my force. If I didn't pretend, I would have been killed!"
Ming Shu held the egg still and talked to it as if talking to a naughty kid. "Well, be reasonable! I only wanted to eat you instead of absorbing your force or whatever…" So earlier, the fool from Grass Pavilion absorbed its force?
He could even absorb the force of a divine beast… Cool!
"Is there any difference between eating me and absorbing my force?" The egg turned angry.
"There is a difference in nature," Ming Shu said with a smile. "Regardless, the snake also tried to eat you, why do you only blame humans? Racial discrimination?"
The egg became even angrier. "All of you are terrible creatures, you're birds of a feather."
"Wow, a newly born little baby, how could you know that saying?" Ming Shu slightly raised her eyebrows.
"Humph, I inherited it." The egg was both angry and proud. The former was because it had been pressed by Ming Shu again, and the latter was because of its "literacy."
"Inherit? Do you have a family, brothers or sisters? Where are they?"
"…" Why is she paying attention to such a bizarre point? If I tell her, is she going to find them to eat?
Humans are really terrible.
The egg kept silent for a moment. Then suddenly it burst into loud cries, and the tone of the whole scene changed rapidly. "Wuwuwu… Please don't eat me, I taste terrible! Wuwu… it's so difficult for me to grow up…"
"…"
Ming Shu loosened her hand unhappily and said, "Stop crying, ugh, it annoys me. Relax, I won't eat something that can speak."
A creature that could speak usually possessed intelligence. She would always try to avoid these things.
