Little Junior Sister, We Can’t Handle This Grind Anymore - Chapter 78
“Absolutely no regrets!” Feng Qingran’s eyes sparkled, completely unaware of the terror this specific area held.
It wasn’t until she actually entered the Ten Directions Realm and stumbled into this very zone that she would be filled with bitter regret.
Mo Jinghong waved his sleeve. The image on the river vanished, replaced by a small boat. “Little Junior Sister, row this boat to the opposite shore. Once you disembark, that’s it.”
Feng Qingran: ???
The opposite shore was lush and green; it looked nothing like the scenes just shown.
Nevertheless, Feng Qingran obediently got into the boat.
A shimmering light passed through Mo Jinghong’s eyes as he said softly, “I’ll wait here for you to come out, Little Junior Sister.”
Feng Qingran rowed a few times and already reached the other side. She waved her hand dismissively. “No need to wait, Seventh Senior Brother.”
Mo Jinghong didn’t respond, silently watching as Feng Qingran stepped off the boat.
Instantly, her figure disappeared from his sight. He raised his hand, and the boat on the water vanished.
When Feng Qingran returned, she would be teleported out directly via the formation—no boat needed.
——————
The moment Feng Qingran stepped off the boat, the scene before her abruptly transformed.
Yellow sand filled the sky, carrying the scent of blood as it blew towards her.
Feng Qingran thought to retrieve a veil from her space, only to suddenly discover her spatial storage wouldn’t work!?
But hers was a Void Space, it should work even without spiritual power…
Remembering the look in Mo Jinghong’s eyes as he left, she suddenly realized—Seventh Senior Brother must have tampered with it!
Before Feng Qingran could ponder further, she felt several powerful auras pressing in.
Several massive beasts, ferocious in appearance and baring their fangs at her, appeared just a few yards away.
Above her, several more giant beasts were flying towards her.
Feng Qingran met the gaze of one of the beasts and saw a ravenous desire for food in its eyes!
They saw her as food?
What had Seventh Senior Brother said again?
Temper the body!
So, he actually meant she should refine her body by running for her life, right?
Feng Qingran didn’t have time to think more. She turned and ran!
All beast tribes, whether fiendish beasts or magical beasts, had extremely strong territorial instincts. She just needed to find a different place to hide!
She refused to believe every beast here wanted to eat her!
However, Feng Qingran was too optimistic. She hadn’t run more than a few steps when something grabbed her by the scruff of her neck. A wave of hot breath hit the back of her neck.
Feng Qingran didn’t feel any warmth; instead, a chill ran down her spine.
In the face of absolute power, no amount of tricks could help her resist.
The beast carrying her hadn’t flown far before it was blocked by another massive tiger-like creature.
The giant tiger had the spiny hide of a porcupine and a pair of wings on its back.
Its voice was like that of a yellow ox, deep and muffled. “Qiongqi, let her go! I saw this food first!”
“Yours? I touched her first, so she’s mine!” Qiongqi spoke, not realizing it was still holding Feng Qingran in its mouth.
Feng Qingran only felt a sensation of falling.
Thud!—
Feng Qingran landed heavily on hard stone, the pain making her scalp go numb.
Well, she supposed this counted as body tempering too!
A few more falls like this, and she might just get used to it!
Taking advantage of the two beasts arguing overhead, Feng Qingran got up and carefully tried to escape.
She hadn’t gone far when a beast that resembled a tiger blocked her path.
Feng Qingran looked at the creature before her: a human face, tiger paws, two large boar-like tusks in its mouth, and a tail measuring eighteen feet long. Her heart pounded like a drum. This was probably the fiendish beast, Taowu?
Taowu loved devouring ghosts and souls the most. At least she was still alive…
The next moment, Taowu’s two foot-long sharp tusks stabbed towards Feng Qingran.
Feng Qingran understood immediately. Taowu planned to kill her first and then consume her soul!
Startled, Feng Qingran immediately pointed towards the sky. “Wait! Look, two idiots are up there!”
Taowu froze for a second and actually looked up. Hundun and Qiongqi?
Feng Qingran, however, turned and ran, giving Taowu no time to react.
By the time Taowu realized what happened, Feng Qingran was already far away.
Damn it! Careless! The food got away!
Feng Qingran ran for her life, not daring to look back even once.
She had literally stumbled into a nest of fiendish beasts.
Qiongqi, Hundun, Taowu… all she was missing was Taotie!
Woof! Woof! Woof!—
A small black puppy suddenly appeared ahead, barking at Feng Qingran.
It blocked her path.
Feng Qingran scooped up the little black dog and kept running!
She couldn’t let this little thing delay her escape. A palm-sized puppy wouldn’t even be enough to fill the gaps between the teeth of the beasts behind her.
The little black dog stared blankly at Feng Qingran’s chin. This batch of food seemed rather stupid?
Would eating it affect his intelligence?
——————
Qiongqi and Hundun stopped fighting.
Qiongqi watched Feng Qingran from a distance, seeing her sprinting while holding Taotie. It shook its head. “Is such a foolish little girl really the one Mo Jinghong sent in?”
Hundun swayed on its six legs, disdain in its eyes. “Hmph! If you hadn’t fought me for her, I would have swallowed her already. Then Taotie wouldn’t have gotten involved. Every cultivator sent in here should be my food.”
“Your food? I’m the leader of the Four Fiendish Beasts! All food should be offered to me first!” Qiongqi roared.
Hundun rolled its eyes at Qiongqi. “You have the nerve to say that? If you hadn’t dropped her…”
This only made Qiongqi more furious and embarrassed. “Piss off! If you hadn’t insisted on talking to me, would I have opened my mouth?”
