Ming Shu’s clothes were heavily blood-stained. Even her inner clothes were bright red. When they went down the mountain, Hui Xue was shocked by the scary scene and felt very worried.
Later, after she confirmed that Ming Shu was not injured, the big stone pressing on her heart was slowly moved aside.
Ming Shu put on the clean clothes prepared by Hui Xue ahead of time, and then she dragged Xiao Rufeng toward the group of spirit beasts, throwing her into them.
Under such dangerous circumstances, Xiao Rufeng, perhaps still being protected by the aura of the protagonist, could always perfectly avoid the attack from spirit beasts, fortunately saving her own life.
But unfortunately, each time she escaped from the encirclement, Ming Shu would step up to her, regardless of Xiao Rufeng’s angry and resentful eyes—Ming Shu changed to another spirit beast group and again threw her into them.
After repeating this several times, Ming Shu finally heard the Harmony System telling her that she had enough Hatred Points.
Task completed! Ming Shu happily turned around in no time, leaving Xiao Rufeng behind without any hesitation. Great, now let’s take the patient to look for food.
Oh, that’s not right, it’s look for the dragon.
It was too difficult to find a dragon. Ming Shu searched almost the entirety Mountain of Dragon Bones yet found nothing related to a dragon. But she did taste everything that could be eaten around the area.
Qing Chen desperately wanted to kill her and just gave up the task.
…
Xiao Rufeng didn’t die.
Her inner cultivation still worked, but without knowing why, her cultivation level degraded over time, and finally she again became the loser who just passed through into this world.
As to the taming between her and the dragon-snake, it disappeared out of nowhere when she became trash again.
She tried to find the dragon-snake, but the Windy Mountain Range of Demons was too big and was full of spirit beasts. She had now become a completely normal person, and it was impossible for her to find anyone in the Windy Mountain Range of Demons. It sounded rather contrived.
Xiao Rufeng also tried all means available to leave the Windy Mountain Range of Demons, and she succeeded. But she ran into Xiao Rufei and Feng Cheng upon stepping back into the outside world.
Xiao Rufei didn’t seem to know what had happened in the Windy Mountain Range of Demons. She insisted on taking Xiao Rufeng back to the Xiao family regardless of her rejection. Feng Cheng failed to stop Xiao Rufei because of the latter’s coquetries. In the end, he sent Xiao Rufeng back to the Xiao family with a dark face.
On the way, Xiao Rufeng escaped several times but was found and stopped by Xiao Rufei out of kindness.
The Xiao family was safe harbor for Xiao Rufei, but it was her hell.
With no strength, no defenders, no matter how strong Xiao Rufeng’s will was, she would collapse in the long run. Not to mention that there was a Xiao Rufei front of everyone, appearing as the perfect model for comparison.
The time it took for a powerful person to be destroyed was only a moment.
At the beginning, Xiao Rufei may have spoken for her and protected her using the identity of elder sister. But later, because Xiao Rufei and Feng Cheng had more and more things to do, they didn’t stay in Xiling as often. No one paid attention to Xiao Rufeng or cared about her.
Xiao Rufeng was married off to someone as a concubine by the Xiao family, playing the role of a marriage tool.
When Xiao Rufei was told about the marriage, Xiao Rufeng had already moved out of the Xiao family. She went to see her, but at that time, Xiao Rufeng had begun to behave abnormally. She almost injured Xiao Rufei.
Feng Cheng was very furious. If it wasn’t for Xiao Rufei’s pleading, Xiao Rufeng would already have been executed by Feng Cheng.
Since that night, Xiao Rufeng was locked away.
On the day of Xiao Rufei and Feng Cheng’s wedding, Xiao Rufeng somehow managed to run out and made a scene at the wedding. But because it’s an ill omen to kill at weddings, Xiao Rufeng saved her life one more time. Yet after that, she could only be locked in a small room, accompanied by a chain for the rest of her life.
Hualala—
The unkempt woman looked at the ground. She was biting her finger and smirked from time to time.
“It’s mine. Mine… Hehe, mine, it’s all mine, all mine, hahahahahaha…”
A maid passing by heard the sounds coming from inside and hurried to leave.
As for the Bai family, because they chose the wrong side and the wrong person, finally they were broken up by Feng Cheng. Bai Ruran was living a life even worse than Xiao Rufeng, and she was sent to the borderlands.
…
Ming Shu and Qing Chen continued to fight in jest or for fun. They never seemed to tire of teasing and tricking each other. On the whole, their lives could be considered as happy and lively.
In the beginning, they were not pleasing to each other. But gradually, when Qing Chen was in a good mood, he would take the initiative to find food for Ming Shu. Although they still argued with each other from time to time, Ming Shu obviously didn’t contradict him like before.
Ming Shu and Qing Chen stayed in the Windy Mountain Range of Demons for a long time, and the place was almost entirely scoured by them—mainly for food.
During this period, Ming Shu met the dragon-snake again. But just as she said, just when the dragon-snake intended to use his power, there would be a situation of broken meridians. And if he couldn’t use Qi, he would be no different from ordinary people.
But here in this world, if you couldn’t use Qi to protect yourself, you would only be bullied. The dragon-snake was no longer the former powerful dragon-snake.
“Miss, there may be no dragon in this world. It’s probable we will never find a dragon if we search the mountain like this.” Hui Xue tried to persuade Ming Shu to give up. She tossed a glance at the flowery butterfly sitting not far and continued, “Why don’t we let master Qing Chen find the dragon himself. And when he finds it, you will treat him at that time, what do you say?”
Ming Shu took another bite of the grilled fish. “Could the dragons speak?”
“Yes, the dragons were born to speak human language and could transform into human shape.” Wasn’t this common sense? Why did Miss suddenly ask this?
“What a pity.” I wonder what dragon meat might taste like.
Hui Xue’s mouth twitched.
As long as Miss said it was a pity, she knew what Miss was thinking.
Was Miss’s courage really made of gold? Why was she so brave, to have the idea of eating a dragon?
The little beastie may have bee aware of Ming Shu’s thoughts, for its eyes glared with flashing lights. It pulled on Ming Shu’s sleeves excitedly with furry claws.
I wanna eat it, I wanna eat.
“Shut up, walk away.” Ming Shu threw it aside along with the colorful egg.
Hui Xue: “…” That cute little animal. Miss is so ruthless! I really want to pick it back up.
“Zhi Po, let’s go take a look.” Qing Chen pointed to a mountain not far away. Right then, they were situated at the core area of the Windy Mountain Range of Demons. Many things that they had never seen before were present here.
“No, I’m hungry.”
“There may be better food over there.”
“…” Ming Shu hesitated for a while. Finally she went and followed Qing Chen to the mountain on the other side.
The mountain was not high, but it was already very upright and steep for the Windy Mountain Range of Demons. It was also difficult to climb due to cragginess.
“Zhi Po, let’s see who will reach the summit first?” Qing Chen got a little excited.
“Why? What’s the stupid race for?” Ming Shu was not very interested. Her eyes constantly searched around, obviously looking for something to eat.
“It’s boring anyway, let’s do it.” Qing Chen winked at Ming Shu. “Or, you’re frightened? Are you afraid to lose?”
“It’s useless to provoke me.” Am I the kind of person who will be motivated so easily?
“If you win, I will pick the rootless fruits for you.”
“Deal.”
Ming Shu flew up and grabbed the vines on the cliff. Within the blink of an eye she had moved up a dozen meters.
WTF?!
Got excited when food’s on the table? This woman!
Did she starve to death in her previous life?
Qing Chen was totally speechless. He had to catch up with Ming Shu quickly.
On the top of the mountain, in addition to trees and stones, there was nothing else around.
Ming Shu almost kicked Qing Chen down.
“Don’t be so rude, look, the scenery here is quite brilliant!” Qing Chen pointed at the mountain range in the distance. Viewing the Windy Mountain Range of Demons from this height really presented a beautiful picture.
“Well, perhaps you’d like to settle down here?” Ming Shu chuckled as she crossed her arms over her chest.
“…” Settle down in this wilderness? I knew she was a nut. “Miss Zhi Po, if you want to be with me, it might be not bad to settle here. Miss Zhi Po, what do you think… Hey, wait! Miss Zhi Po…”
