Chapter 264 The Puppet Who Usurped the Nest
Remember in one second
Ling Miao'an's rampage through the Central Plains Secret Realm didn't last long. Soon, most of the keys were assigned to specific owners, and the key holders entered the Central Plains Secret Realm, whereupon the rules were established.
Ling Miao'an had a loli-like girl in his arms. This girl was the one that Ling Chuqing had attracted by using a magic item to increase his luck in love. With his other free hand, he held Yu Qing's hand and looked at the dialog box that suddenly popped up in front of him with some surprise.
To Ling Miao'an's surprise, the dialog box that appeared before him was blue at the top and had a familiar red "x" in the upper right corner, exactly the same as the dialog box that popped up when his computer malfunctioned.
The creator of this secret realm in the Central Plains... was he also a time traveler?
Ling Miao'an thought in surprise.
Unable to come to a conclusion, Ling Miao'an secretly increased her vigilance, and the group continued to move forward.
"Survive? What kind of rule is that?"
They hadn't gone far when the group heard an angry shout.
"...Without even a clear explanation, what good are those three words?!"
Ling Miao'an's group stopped in their tracks. Ahead, a cursing man had come into their view.
They spotted the man, and the man, of course, spotted them very quickly.
"Hi!"
The somewhat thin man was incredibly fast. As soon as he saw Ling Miao'an and the others, he immediately used magic to appear in front of Ling Miao'an.
"Your team seems quite strong. I'm looking for a team with some ability to team up with. Shall we join forces?"
The gaunt man extended an invitation.
A faint aura of power emanated from his body. The glimmer of light in the air fell upon him, distorted by his aura, creating a shimmering effect. His strength was clearly formidable.
The fact that the other party offered himself up made Ling Miao'an's eyes light up. This was practically a free bodyguard. With him, along with Wang Zhuang, he could spend less time fighting in this secret realm and more time picking up girls.
So Ling Miao'an didn't even hesitate: "Okay, let's go together."
With his underlings who had come to their doorstep, the group continued onward.
"Fellow Daoist, your strength is quite impressive. To have such cultivation at such a young age shows that you are definitely a rare genius!"
"Is this your partner, fellow Daoist? She's very beautiful."
"Are these all your female confidantes, fellow Daoist? Hehe, you're so lucky, fellow Daoist!"
"Fellow Daoist, you are a young and talented man. We still do not know who your master is."
"Fellow……"
After inviting the skinny man to join their team, Ling Miaoan soon regretted her decision.
Because this seemingly serious, thin man turned out to be a chatterbox. He probably thought Ling Miao'an was easy to talk to, and kept asking him all sorts of questions.
The towering trees all looked the same, and walking in one direction made it impossible to tell how long one had been walking. In this already irritating situation, the gaunt man's voice sounded even more irritating, and Ling Miao'an even felt a sense of disgust!
Just as he was about to finally lose his patience and tell the gaunt man to shut up, the secret realm, which had remained peaceful since he entered, finally revealed its fangs.
"Roar--"
"Fellow Daoist, be careful! Ouch, how could you be distracted in this situation?!"
The long sword plunged into a gaping maw, successfully preventing the sharp fangs from piercing Ling Miao'an's shoulder.
"what--"
Peach Blossom, held in Ling Miao'an's arms, screamed as she faced the gaping maw of blood, pushed Ling Miao'an away, and vanished in an instant.
Yu Qing and Wang Zhuang cautiously drew their swords, with Wang Zhuang also shielding the white deer behind him.
"Roar--"
The attack, which had been lying in wait for a long time, failed to work. The dinosaur-like animal turned its vertical pupils toward the skinny man who attacked it and roared threateningly at him!
Then it turned to look at Ling Miao'an again, and with a swing of its short forelimbs, caught the sword that Ling Miao'an was attacking.
"Roar--"
It took a deep breath, pointed its large head at Ling Miao'an, and roared with all its might. The roar, so close to her, was deafening, the sound waves blurred the air, and her ears were temporarily deafened.
Ling Miao'an shook her head. In that short time, she was caught by the enemy. The sharp claws were about to hook onto Ling Miao'an's shoulder, and the long sword once again blocked the monster's path.
"Fellow Daoist, what are you thinking during the battle! This is a Tyrant Beast!! It's a demonic beast that only existed in ancient times, and I never expected to find one in the Central Plains Secret Realm! This one's strength has at least reached the Nascent Soul stage, we must join forces! Otherwise, we are no match for it!"
Hearing the gaunt man's words, Ling Miao'an scoffed. "Just a Nascent Soul stage cultivator? I can handle him all by myself!"
Just as he was thinking this, he saw the skinny man, caught off guard, be struck by the Tyrannosaurus's short forelimbs and fly backward, crashing into a large tree. Suddenly, several branches stretched out from the tree and wrapped around the flying skinny man, who immediately rolled his eyes back as if suffocating!
Ling Miao'an was shocked; she hadn't expected that these trees could hurt people!
This moment of distraction allowed the Tyrannosaurus to seize the opportunity once again.
Just as the short, sharp forelimbs were about to grab Ling Miao'an's heart, the protagonist's halo finally kicked in, and a melodramatic scene unfolded.
"Brother Ling—no—"
Seeing that Ling Miao'an was about to be in danger, Yu Qing rushed forward without hesitation and fearlessly stood in front of Ling Miao'an.
"Pfft-"
The warm blood sprayed onto her face, leaving Ling Miao'an somewhat stunned.
"Qing'er, Qing'er—"
Ling Miao'an caught Yu Qing as she fell and cried out in panic.
"Qing'er, how are you?"
Ling Miao'an put her arm around Yu Qing, carefully avoiding her wound, and asked somewhat helplessly.
Unfortunately, Yu Qing had already lost consciousness and did not hear his question.
He held Yu Qing in his arms as if no one else was there, completely disregarding the current situation. The enemy who wanted him dead was right in front of him, yet he seemed oblivious to it all.
If the protagonist's halo were conscious, it would be incredibly exhausting.
"Roar--"
Suddenly, another Tyrannosaurus roared from afar. Upon hearing this, the Tyrannosaurus that was about to attack Ling Miao'an paused, abandoned its soon-to-be-eaten meal, and quickly disappeared into the forest.
Wang Zhuang and Bai Lu, who were on guard, breathed a sigh of relief, while "Yu Liu" maintained a calm demeanor throughout.
……
Looking at the series of events unfolding outside, Yu Liu smiled happily: "Now, there's going to be a good show!"
Zhao Man was someone I arranged recently, but I didn't expect him to be the fastest to make a move.
Moreover, he injured the protagonist's most important woman with his first move, which shows that he still believes in himself. The protagonist is protected by the protagonist's halo and can't die no matter what, but the protagonist's woman may not be so lucky.
Yu Liu felt that she was being a little wicked!
Ling Chuqing stroked her baby's head and looked at the scene outside. For a moment, she felt that her baby had evolved from a little lamb into a big bad wolf.
It's probably just my imagination.
Zhao Man, the gaunt man tied to the tree, opened his tightly closed eyes a crack, and a faint smile appeared on his lips.
The show is about to begin.
