Chapter 1182: Chapter 1208: There are Good Things Inside! (Three More Updates) Chapter 1182: Chapter 1208: There are Good Things Inside! (Three More Updates) The Land of Sacrificial Extinction, filled with poisonous miasma, was a place where danger could arise from anywhere. Even if there wasn't any immediate danger, one couldn't guard against a bolt of lightning striking down. At such times, Yang Zhen couldn't muster any interest in matters of men and women.
However, this didn't prevent Yang Zhen from taking an interest in the person before him. What kind of fellow could possibly make Shi Feifei utter, “Ah, don't come over!”?
Yang Zhen chuckled creepily, rushing over like a 200-pound fat man. Sure enough, he saw Shi Feifei continuously retreating, her figure staggering. It seemed she faced some restrictions; otherwise, with Shi Feifei's abilities, she wouldn't have been so down on her luck.
But when he clearly saw the 'person' in front of Shi Feifei, Yang Zhen's eyes almost popped out.
This wasn't a person at all, but completely like a water monkey, with hands hanging below the knees, the whole body hunched over, drool constantly dripping, and eyes blood-red. As it moved, it pulled on its fur, yet the aura it emitted was as vast as the ocean.
Shi Feifei clearly sensed the presence behind her. Turning to see Yang Zhen, her face immediately showed a surprised and delighted expression as she shouted, “Yang Zhen, save me!”
Yang Zhen laughed loudly, approaching Shi Feifei, and said to the water monkey, “Your charm is indeed unusual, even this beast is captivated by you.”
Shi Feifei glared at Yang Zhen and said, “Stop making me sick here. This creature is terrifying. It doesn't fear True Essence at all. My mental power can't penetrate into its Divine Consciousness Space at all.”
Divine Consciousness Space?
That amused Yang Zhen. It would be odd if this creature had a Divine Consciousness Space.
Seeing Shi Feifei genuinely flustered and not faking it, Yang Zhen chuckled and said, “Watch Sao Saint perform a heroic rescue!”
Shi Feifei burst into laughter and, giving Yang Zhen a lingering look, blinked and asked, “Do you know how to deal with this thing?”
Yang Zhen didn't answer Shi Feifei's question, but instead asked, “What are you doing here, and where are Yan Zixu and the rest?”
Shi Feifei snorted and replied, “They chased after a Blood Ganoderma Lucidum. I intended to follow, but ran into this thing on the way. It attacked without distinction, and I… I had no choice. This thing's too nasty.”
Yang Zhen laughed heartily, teasingly looking at Shi Feifei, and said, “You're not telling the truth!”
Shi Feifei was taken aback, shook her head and replied, “I've told nothing but the truth. What could be false… Ah, could that Blood Ganoderma Lucidum actually belong to them?”
Yang Zhen didn't know what kind of Blood Ganoderma Lucidum it was, but considering the water monkey's distressed state, it seemed Yan Zixu and the rest certainly hadn't done anything good, and Shi Feifei was simply unlucky enough to encounter the water monkey's reaction.
Shi Feifei also seemed to realize the problem and stamped her foot in frustration, saying, “Yan Zixu, that bastard, I hope I never see him again.”
Yang Zhen emphatically agreed, saying, “If you see him again, chop him up!”
Shi Feifei giggled, giving Yang Zhen an annoyed look and said, “Hero, please hurry and save this little damsel.”
Even if Shi Feifei hadn't been there, Yang Zhen had planned to deal with the water monkey, since the water monkey, though angry about Yan Zixu and the others taking the Blood Ganoderma Lucidum, was still guarding something more important. Otherwise, it wouldn't be lingering here with Shi Feifei and would have already pursued Yan Zixu.
Yang Zhen didn't know exactly what the water monkey was guarding, but he could sense that this thing was far more precious than the Blood Ganoderma Lucidum.
Roar–!
The water monkey seemed infuriated by the two chatting joyfully. Its face was full of rage, and its spit nearly sprayed all over Yang Zhen.
“Damn, what's the rush?” Yang Zhen glared, casually waved away the spit in mid-air, and with a leap, kicked towards the water monkey.
The water monkey's eyes flashed with contempt as its long arms twirled towards Yang Zhen like twisted ropes.
Seeing Yang Zhen acting so arrogantly, Shi Feifei was shocked and exclaimed, “Be careful!”
Boom–!
Yang Zhen's speed suddenly surged, and with a kick, he struck the water monkey in the face. The water monkey didn't even manage to roar before it was sent flying backwards, disappearing in the blink of an eye.
Shi Feifei widened her eyes, muttering to herself, “That… such tremendous strength.”
The water monkey was naturally incredibly strong, something Shi Feifei knew well, almost like a rock, impervious and unmatched in strength. Neither mental power nor True Essence had any effect on it, which had forced Shi Feifei to keep retreating.
Such a troublesome creature, yet Yang Zhen had kicked it away with a single foot?
As the water monkey's shadow vanished, Shi Feifei finally exclaimed, “Now we're good, let's hurry, that thing might come back any moment.”
Yang Zhen glanced at Shi Feifei and said, “Alright then!”
Saying this, Yang Zhen, without further discussion, grabbed Shi Feifei's hand and leaped toward the pond where the water monkey had been.
Shi Feifei's eyes grew wider and with a shout of alarm, the sound of a heavy splash soon muffled her scream.
Yang Zhen didn't want to delay, and without explaining, pulled Shi Feifei into the water, almost getting himself killed by his cumbersome teammate.
Shi Feifei seemed scared as soon as she hit the water and immediately panicked, pulling at Yang Zhen and wrapping around him like an octopus.
Although Yang Zhen was still able to move, he was obviously hindered and felt like cursing.
Moreover, Shi Feifei, for some reason, held on even tighter, and Yang Zhen's back was almost breaking. Annoyed, he slapped her, and despite being underwater, the smack could still be clearly heard.
Shi Feifei's eyes suddenly bulged, staring at Yang Zhen, who met her gaze with indignant eyes.
Yang Zhen wanted to grin, but then thought better of it since they were underwater, and simply glared instead, gesturing for Shi Feifei to let go, which she reluctantly did.
While sighing in relief, Yang Zhen pointed at a light source below the pond resembling a full moon, signaling Shi Feifei to check it out.
Shi Feifei widened her eyes, transmitting a message, “You scoundrel, what's there to see here?”
Yang Zhen rolled his eyes and said, “There's something good down here.”
“Yeah?”
Upon hearing this, Shi Feifei's eyes brightened, and squinting, she smiled and transmitted, “I knew you weren't just kindly saving me for no reason, there really is something good down there.”
Hmph!
Yan Zixu and his bunch of fools thought chasing after the Blood Ganoderma Lucidum was the real prize, little did they know that the water monkey was guarding something else precious. If not for Yang Zhen, Shi Feifei wouldn't have guessed it.
Thinking this, Shi Feifei turned and gave Yang Zhen a sharp look, remembering something, she fiercely glared at him, then secretly reached behind and rubbed her back.
Faint howls echoed up from beneath the water, making Yang Zhen's expression turn grave.
Something about this place was off!
As to what exactly was off about it, Yang Zhen couldn't quite say, but it gave him a spine-chilling feeling.
One thing was certain, though; there wasn't just one water monkey.
Yang Zhen and Shi Feifei exchanged looks and then dived deeper, immediately taken aback.
Shi Feifei was so surprised that she gaped, and had Yang Zhen not reacted quickly to cover it, she might have swallowed a lot of water.
