Su Qinglan’s eyes sparkled.
The moment she saw the evil ferocious beast, her whole body trembled.
Not from fear.
No, no...she was excited!
Actually, it wasn’t even her trembling. It was her little plants.
The plant-type ability deep inside her body quivered with energy, itching to fight. For so long, they had been bored out of their minds. Healing this, poking around uselessly... but no real battles. And now? A real enemy had appeared.
Su Qinglan’s heart thudded wildly.
Finally!
She wanted to see it herself. How strong were these beasts? Could they compare to the zombies she had fought in her past world?
Without a second thought, she charged straight at the creature, eyes blazing with anticipation.
"Host! Host, stop!!"
Xuyu’s panicked voice shrieked inside her mind.
"Host! Stop! Stop right now!" Xuyu’s frantic voice screamed in her mind. "You need to act virtuously! Let the beastmen protect you! That’s the proper way for a female to behave!"
Su Qinglan rolled her eyes so hard she almost tripped. Virtuous, my foot!
The little system kept nagging, panicking louder and louder.
"Host! Evil ferocious beasts love munching females! And someone like you...round face, soft arms, plenty of meat, you’re like a juicy feast waiting to be eaten!"
But did Su Qinglan listen?
Of course not.
Her grin widened, her eyes sparkling. "Zombies, beasts, whatever...you’re all test subjects today!"
She dashed forward, her plant-type ability already stirring, ready to lash out any moment.
And then...
Thick green vines shot out like snakes, coiling around the ferocious beast’s legs in one swift move. Another vine whipped up, wrapped around its neck, and with one merciless twist...
Crack.
The beast went limp.
Dead.
Before Su Qinglan even touched it.
"..."
She stopped dead in her tracks. Her plants were also speechless, almost sulking.
Her wide eyes stared at the twitching corpse, disbelief filling her chest.
"...That’s it? That weakling? One squeeze and it’s gone?"
Her vines shrank back a little, radiating disappointment. They had gotten all excited for this?
Su Qinglan sighed in frustration.
"What the hell! At least put up a fight!"
On the other side, Han Jue stood there, completely dumbfounded.
Just a moment ago, he had been prepared to leap in to save that foolish female even if she was hellbent on committing suicide right in front of him.
Yes, she was stupid. Yes, she was reckless. But at least in front of him, he would not let her die.
His muscles had coiled, ready to strike down the ferocious beast in a heartbeat. He was already picturing himself tearing its throat out...
But then... the beast suddenly choked. Its limbs thrashed violently.
Then the creature slumped to the ground, dead.
Han Jue froze. His icy blue eyes widened slightly.
What... what just happened?
Ferocious beasts were powerful and ruthless. They didn’t just crumple over like frightened rabbits. Yet this one had died so fast it didn’t even scream.
