Chapter 26 The Beast Breaks Out of its Shell



"Miss Lanzhi, I won't accept your things."

Mu Fenqing was obviously not a fool. How did the saying go? If you show kindness for no reason, it's really...

Therefore, Mu Fenqing said firmly: "I swear now."

"Okay then." Lan Zhi had no choice but to put away the golden shovel with regret.

"I, Mu Fenqing, pledge my life not to tell anyone about what I saw tonight. If you break this oath, I will go insane, my meridians will be severed, and I will die a miserable death..."

"Enough, no more words, I believe you." Lan Zhi turned around and went to the wasteland to check the bodies of the two beastmen.

"Then can I leave?" Mu Fenqing asked, but in his mind were words like "A gentleman's revenge is never too late." After all, he was so tall and a man, but being forced to swear an oath was a very embarrassing thing. But who made Lan Zhi's cultivation higher? He had to bow his head. This was not cowardice, but a wise man who knew the times. To put it bluntly, if the person with the higher cultivation tonight was Mu Fenqing, he would have directly snatched the golden shovel and forced her to reveal her concealment technique...

Lan Zhi squatted on the ground and said to him without turning her head: "Don't leave in a hurry, come here."

Mu Fenqing asked, "Is there anything I can help you with?"

He walked towards Lan Zhi hesitantly.

Lan Zhi said, "This bear is too big, I'll give it to you. I just want the body of this black snake."

"ah?"

Mu Fenqing was a little surprised. The flesh, blood, and fur of the beastmen all contained spiritual energy. This brown bear was very valuable. The bear skin could be peeled off and the bear meat could be eaten... Lan Zhi was actually willing to give it to him?

"Well, I'm a weak woman and can't carry this bear, so I'll give it to you."

Mu Fenqing was dumbfounded as he watched her pick up the black snake's corpse...

The snake was also very large. Lan Zhi's two arms could barely wrap around the black snake's body. She said, "It's getting late. I have to go back."

"Okay, drive slowly..." Mu Fenqing looked at her intently.

Lan Zhi turned her head and asked, "Why are you looking at me?"

"No, nothing. I just thought you were so thin, yet you could hold that snake, and you weren't afraid of getting dirty..."

After hearing this, Lan Zhi suddenly asked, "How old are you?"

"I'm fifteen!"

"Oh, fifteen years old, still a child." Lan Zhi suddenly realized. No wonder she always felt that Mu Fenqing had a silly temperament. His joy, anger, sorrow and happiness were all written on his face, and people could see what he was thinking at a glance. For example, when he swore an oath, his expression was a bit humiliated and angry, and his eyes were also unwilling. But when Lan Zhi said she would give him a brown bear, his expression was stunned. Although he tried hard to restrain the corners of his mouth, Lan Zhi could still see at a glance that he was very happy.

This child is so easy to coax. Just give him a beating and a sweet date and he will be coaxed into submission.

However, Mu Fenqing was too tall, 1.9 meters tall, and his muscles were so strong that he looked very oppressive.

"I'm not a child. Although I haven't been crowned, I'm already an adult!" Mu Fenqing patted his chest and picked up the bear on the ground with one hand. He then said, "I still say that there is no reward without merit. I can help you carry both the snake and the bear back to your home."

Lan Zhi said, "No, I don't like bear meat. If you dare to bring it to my house, I will chase you all over the capital and beat you up."

Such a threat was obviously very effective. Mu Fenqing shrank his neck and did not dare to refute. He started practicing at the age of three and has been practicing for twelve years until now. His cultivation level is still at the early stage of the Infant Yuan Realm. Mu Fenqing is the son of a general, but his general father thinks he is not suitable for going to the battlefield, so he found several respected scholars to teach him, hoping that he can become a civil official in the future.

Mu Fenqing also became a boy who seemed very polite on the surface, but in fact he inherited his father's wild side. Whenever he encountered problems, he wanted to solve them with his fists. Unfortunately, his cultivation was too low and he couldn't beat others, so he could only behave more politely to avoid being beaten by his father.

Mu Fenqing's cultivation talent is actually quite good, but the technique he practices...

It's weird and it's difficult.

To break through the first level of the technique, one must transform into a large tree and endure thirty years of wind and sun...

When Mu Fenqing first saw this condition, his eyes widened and he almost fainted. Thirty years, it was too long to wait. But he had no other choice but to turn into a tree as required. Today was the second day since he turned into a tree...

"My father asked me to find a safe place outside and stay there for at least seven days before going home, just to train me. But I have to send the bear back, so I have to break my promise..." Mu Fenqing muttered to himself, carrying the bear and preparing to go home.

On the other side, Lan Zhi had already put the black snake into her personal space.

Space magic weapons are extremely rare. Just now, in front of Mu Fenqing, Lan Zhi could only hold the black snake and wait until she saw him walk away before she could put it away.

As for taking and putting away the golden shovel, it doesn't matter, because the spiritual weapon can be taken out and put back at will after being contracted, and no one will associate it with a space magic weapon.

"This black snake is covered in blood and dirt, it's so dirty..." Lan Zhi complained in disgust. She returned to the wasteland and began to deal with the traces at the scene. She had to dig away the soil that had been sprinkled with spices, and then clean up the blood of the beasts on the ground to ensure that no traces would be left, so that no one would know what happened here.

Lan Zhi finished her work and planned to come back tomorrow night. She originally wanted to lurk nearby for the next few days. Anyway, she had the breath-concealing spell from the Lan Shenhua. As long as she wanted to hide, no one could find her whereabouts. As for the Lan Mansion, even if there were spies of Prince Rui monitoring outside the mansion, these spies could not see through the invisibility spell and had no idea that Lan Zhi had come out. But now, the black snake's corpse was fresh. Taking it home could improve the food tomorrow. The flesh and blood of the beast tribe was very delicious, and it could nourish the body and improve cultivation. Lan Zhi did not eat snake meat, but she could take it home and offer it to her two brothers.

"By the way, Jiang Qingcheng is still living at home. I forgot to tell her that I was going into seclusion before I left... It seems I have to go back tonight and show up in front of her tomorrow."

Lan Zhi muttered to herself and was about to leave when she suddenly heard a faint sound of a shell breaking.

Snap——

Lan Zhi tiptoed towards the source of the sound, squatted on the ground and searched for a long time before she found a very small egg in the weeds.

The egg is emerald green and almost blends in with the weeds. In addition, it is the same size as a quail egg, making it difficult to find.

Lan Zhi placed the weed-colored egg in the palm of her hand. The eggshell kept breaking, and the little creature inside gobbled the eggshell in big mouthfuls. After a while, it had eaten the entire shell. After it finished eating, it raised its head and looked at Lan Zhi with its emerald green pupils.
