Chapter 163 Its Baby

From day to night, the monster used its wings to hold the three people tightly against its chest, never letting up for a moment.

Ye Wumian sighed and said, "Tell me, what does this monster want to do? I won't give it a quick death."

"I can't leave now. It would be a shame to just use the jade token to leave, but wasting time here is not a good idea either."

Nan Xiao plucked the feathers stuck on Lu Huai's head.

She stared at the feathers in a daze, various images appearing in her mind.

The scattered eggshells on the dry grass and the bewildering attitude of the monster. Suddenly, a vague idea flashed through her mind.

She said uncertainly, "Is there a possibility that it regards us as its children?"

Ye Wumian looked up suddenly: "What???"

No way...

Not only does this person look different from the monster, they also don't have hair. They don't look like the same kind at all.

Could it be that this monster has an eye disease???

Most demonic beasts are violent and bloodthirsty, rarely coexisting peacefully with humans. When two beasts meet, a fight usually ensues, with one being either killed or injured.

Junior Sister's guess sounds a bit outrageous.

Nan Xiao soothed him, "Third Brother, don't get excited. This is just speculation. If it's true, it might be a good thing for us."

At least for a short time, lives are safe.

Lu Huai nodded in agreement: "Xiaoxiao is right. It just rubbed my face with fur. It was so itchy."

While they were chatting, the monster had opened its eyes without anyone noticing. Its fist-sized eyeballs stared at the three of them motionlessly.

This scene scared Ye Wumian so much that he shuddered.

"Junior sister, junior sister, it...it looks at me..."

Nan Xiao looked at him encouragingly and said, "Third Brother, remember what I just said, don't be afraid."

Ye Wumian: “…”

It's hard not to be afraid. If the monster is really hungry, the three of them with such small bodies wouldn't be enough to fill its teeth even if it eats one in a mouthful.

Lu Huai volunteered, "If you want to know if Xiaoxiao's guess is right, just give it a try and you'll know. Wait for me."

After saying this, he deftly picked up the feathers on the monster's wings and climbed up boldly under the monster's gaze.

"Little Junior Brother, come back. I'm your senior brother, so I'll go."

Ye Wumian looked at this scene, his heart almost jumping out of his throat.

In the past, Fourth Junior Brother always said that he was a ferocious man, but now it seems that Youngest Junior Brother is even more ferocious than him.

"It's okay, I'll do it."

Nan Xiao used Xiaoya to wrap around the teleportation jade token on Lu Huai's waist. If there was any danger, she would let Xiaoya crush his jade token immediately.

Several people were a little nervous and kept a close eye on the condition of the monster.

Lu Huai struggled to climb onto the monster's wings and locked eyes with the monster. The monster first nuzzled Lu Huai's cheek with its head, then lowered its wings and gently placed him back down.

Three people: “…”

Ye Wumian was somewhat shocked and said in disbelief, "Junior Sister, what you just said seems to be true. Did this monster really recognize us as its children? Why is that?"

He really couldn't understand.

Nan Xiao pointed to the unplucked feathers on his head and speculated, "Maybe we fell into this nest and picked up the scent, or maybe it's these feathers on our heads. Who knows? These are just my guesses. Third Brother, you can't take them seriously."

"I understand, Junior Sister. I'm just too lazy to use my brain, but I'm not stupid."

Nan Xiao: “…”

Well, she was wrong.

······

The monster seemed to have rested enough, and from time to time it touched the tops of the three people's heads with its feathers. Their hair, which was not very smooth to begin with, was now completely frizzy.

After discovering that the monster would not harm them, the three of them resisted. The more they resisted, the more excited the monster became. In the end, Ye Wumian and Lu Huai imitated Nan Xiao and lay down directly.

You like to play, right? Then go ahead and play.

The monster used its feathers to touch the heads of the "babies" in turn, and found that the "babies" who had just been interacting with it suddenly stopped moving. It thought, could it be that they were hungry?

That’s right, it hasn’t eaten anything since it hatched, so it must be hungry.

The monster first roared at the three people a few times, then spread its wings and flew into the sky.

Ye Wumian asked, "Did that monster just now mean for us to wait here obediently?"

Lu Huai: "Then should we wait?"

After saying that, they both looked at Nan Xiao at the same time.

Nan Xiao: “…”

"Such a good opportunity, of course I should run away quickly."

What are they waiting for? Waiting for the monster to realize they aren't its children is like waiting to die.

As soon as the monster left, the three of them ran away stealthily.

When the monster came back, it saw that its nest was empty and was so scared that the meat in its mouth fell out.

It turned the nest upside down but couldn't find the three tiny figures.

The huge body turned around anxiously:

"Where's the baby? Where's its baby? It was hatched with great difficulty. Even though it's a little ugly, it's still its baby..."

"Could it have been carried away by another monster?"

As soon as this thought came to mind, the monster's feathers exploded in fear, and it flapped its wings, heading towards the nearby monster's lair.

········

Nan Xiao was also running wildly all the way, and encountered several foundation-building monsters along the way, which Ye Wumian killed.

Nan Xiao hugged a tree and said breathlessly, "We've already run up two hills. The monster shouldn't be able to find us in a short time. Let's take a break."

The day was so exciting that she felt a little overwhelmed.

"good"

Ye Wumian checked the surrounding environment and after confirming that it was safe, he took out a blanket for rest from the storage ring and spread it on the ground.

He said, "Junior Brother, Junior Sister, it will be dawn in a few hours. You two should rest first, and I will keep watch."

Nan Xiao waved his hand and said, "Third Brother, you've been tired all day too. Let's rest together, otherwise you won't have the energy tomorrow. As for the night watch, I'll let Xiaoya help."

After saying that, Xiaoya cooperated by shaking its leaves. Its branches quickly differentiated into dozens of vines, directly surrounding this area.

"good."

The three of them were tired after a day of work and quickly entered a state of meditation.

The surrounding spiritual energy seemed to be attracted by something, surrounding the three people and scrambling to enter their bodies.

······

It's dawn

Nan Xiao was the first to come out of her meditation state. She stretched her body and felt full of energy, even the fatigue in her body was swept away.

She muttered, "Is today's meditation so effective?"

Lu Huai and Ye Wumian also woke up one after another.

Lu Huai stared at his hands in a daze: "How strange, my cultivation seems to have increased."

Ye Wumian also said: "Mine seems to be the same."

Nan Xiao: “…”

So, when everyone meditates and practices together, their cultivation levels all improve, but when it comes to me, it only relieves my fatigue?

How could this spiritual energy be treated differently? She was so complacent just now.
