#Curious System: Mimi? Are you sure?!
Linghu Lan: Those without boobs, don't speak! #
The monster hesitated and didn't want to speak, but Shenji's expression darkened slightly. With a little pressure, the monster felt as if all the bones in his body were about to be crushed. He hurriedly shouted, "I'll talk, I'll talk! I found out in a dream of an elder of the Monster Association!"
"In a dream?"
"Yes! Absolutely true. If I were lying, I would lose all my cultivation."
"How can you know news from someone else's dream?"
The monster glanced at Linghu Lan, then at Shenji, and slowly said, "Because I am a dream-eating beast!"
Dream Eater?
Having traveled through so many worlds, this was the first time Linghu Lan had ever heard of something like a dream-eating beast.
But Shenji had obviously heard of it, and looked at the monster thoughtfully.
Linghu Lan asked, "What is a dream-eating beast?"
The monster gave Linghu Lan a reproachful look, "You're so stupid, dream-eating beasts are just beasts that eat other people's dreams!"
"Beast?" Linghu Lan was speechless. Are you serious?
"That's right! Am I not a beast?" The monster wanted to straighten his spine and argue with Linghu Lan, but he dared not defy Shenji. He could only glare at Linghu Lan with his red eyes and secretly warn her: If you dare to say I'm not a beast, I'll kill you!
Linghu Lan was speechless, forced to agree: "You're a beast! You really are a beast!"
The monster then withdrew its glare at Linghu Lan with satisfaction.
Shenji's face darkened, and with a slight flip of his hand, he slapped the monster on the head. The monster cried out and collapsed to the ground, slowly curling up into a small animal.
Its fur was shiny black, its head was fluffy, and a pair of red eyes, like rubies set in its round head, were staring wide-eyed at the two of them. Its nose was shiny black, and its paws were small and soft.
The overall impression of Linghu Lan is that of a fluffy, miniature tiger cub—so adorable!
The dream-eating beast lay on the ground, trembling all over, not daring to move, its eyes filled with fear.
This man is terrifying. He almost shattered its cultivation with that one blow, directly reverting it to its original form. I wonder if it will ever have the chance to transform again.
It has now realized that offending this man is not a big deal, but it is absolutely crucial not to offend this woman, otherwise, when the man goes berserk, he can be truly terrifying.
It couldn't help but scorn Shenji again. He clearly liked her, yet he insisted on taking her as his apprentice. What a pervert! Human emotions are too complicated and terrifying!
We monsters don't have so many taboos. If we like someone, we don't care about gender or species. We just go for it. It's better to be a monster!
The monster made so many complaints in such a short time, but neither of them could hear them, and even if they could, they wouldn't care.
Linghu Lan said in surprise, "You've brought him back to his original form."
"Keep it; it'll guard the gate for you." Shenji cast a cleansing spell on the Dream Eater, pulled it up from the ground, and asked, "What's your name?"
The Dream Eater disagreed with Shenji's words. It was laughable that a dignified third-rank Spirit King would be guarding a gate for a mortal.
However, with its life in human hands, it had no choice but to behave. It said in a muffled voice, "My name is Beast!"
"Beast?" Linghu Lan took the Dream Eater from Shenji and held it in her palm. "That's a pretty cute name!"
