Find a Troubled Girl after leaving the Guild-Chapter 494 - 260: Immortal Spirit Stance

"Wake, wake up."

Zoe stammered as she got out of bed, no longer finding everything so natural.

She was even a bit sneaky before leaving the room.

"Come on, what are you afraid of?"

Li Ang was a bit surprised by her change in demeanor, chuckling helplessly.

"Wh-what, what will they say?" Zoe seemed to have a guilty conscience for some reason.

Has she finally developed a sense of shame? Li Ang scratched his head, placing his non-demonized hand on her head: "What do they know? Whatever they say, it doesn’t matter."

"It, it does matter."

"It’s okay, they might still be sound asleep."

Li Ang nonchalantly opened the door, only for Dorothy to fall right in.

"..."

"See, see!" Zoe shouted.

Although her voice was much louder, it lacked the usual vigor.

Along with the soft half-elf who fell into his arms, there were also an ox and a wolf eavesdropping by the door. 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎

"You guys, I thought you wouldn’t go this far." Li Ang sighed.

Dorothy jumped up: "You have the nerve! I thought there was a demon at the treetop last night!"

She had a ’watching the drama’ expression, but both Andasu and ALulu were blushing intensely. They glanced at Zoe, then stared at Li Ang, wanting to speak but stuttering without being able to say anything.

In the distance, a swirl of flowers and leaves rose from the ground, transforming into Diana’s figure.

She waved her hand with a big smile, and her innocence immediately diluted the peculiar atmosphere among the Star Flower Travel Corps.

The pink Moon Concealing Rabbit sat on her shoulder, observing everyone.

Not just Li Ang, but Zoe also seemed relieved, and she quickly ran towards Diana.

"Why are you here?"

Zoe asked, holding the Immortal Star Soul’s hand.

Diana’s voice was like the sound of wind chimes, then she raised her hand to create a basket of fruits beside her, filled with various fruits.

Zoe turned back to everyone and smiled, "Little Diana is here to bring us breakfast."

Once everyone placed the fruits on the table and sat down, Farina finally came out yawning, as if she hadn’t heard anything earlier and remained uninvolved.

Besides the big melons, the basket also contained various berries, honey, and even mushrooms. Li Ang was a bit hesitant about the mushrooms, but after ALulu took a bite and showed a surprised expression, he decided to trust the Star Soul of the Creation Tree.

After all, Earth also has delicacies like matsutake that can be eaten raw.

Li Ang thought his time on Mengze Island would be spent with seafood, but instead, they ended up consuming mostly forest produce, which was quite unexpected.

He was picking up a fruit that looked half like an apple and half like a cherry when he saw Zoe rummaging through the basket to gather the wild berries together.

On Satus Island, he thought she just ate them out of necessity, but does she actually love them?

It had been a long time since he saw the Lady Swordsman acting like her first appearance; now she was just like then, smiling with her eyes closed, tossing the berries into her mouth one by one, making munching sounds.

Curious, Dorothy picked one, took a lady-like bite, and then frowned.

"So sour. Although very fresh and surely full of beauty-enhancing elements, but..."

Dorothy struggled a bit, reluctantly ate two, and stopped.

Li Ang also wanted to try, but as he heard, his hand paused in mid-air, deciding to leave them for someone who enjoyed them more because he preferred sweet things.

Hearing the half-elf’s comment, Andasu wrinkled her brow and glanced at Zoe, as if unwilling to concede, grabbing a handful to toss into her mouth.

Li Ang intended to stop her, but facing him, the Beast eared Maiden instead seemed to get energized, quickly shoving them into her mouth.

"How is it?" Li Ang asked, with a sympathetic expression, looking at Andasu.

The young girl’s thin cheeks puffed out, chewed a few times, and the wild berry juice started filling her mouth.

"Ugh, uh hiss—"

It sounded like she wanted to say she was fine.

As soon as she finished, Li Ang saw her body shiver intensely, vibrations spreading from her feet and the tip of her white wolf tail, instantaneously sweeping across her body.

"No need to endure, just spit it out." Dorothy said helplessly.

Andasu stared at Li Ang firmly, as if carved from wood, only her throat moving slightly to force the berries down.

She opened her mouth, and in an instant of changing facial muscles, her entire expression twisted into a grimace.

However, she still looked at Li Ang with a defiant expression, so he could only reach out and rub her soft cheek that seemed to have a small layer of fuzz. This girl wasn’t that old either, and once she decided to be stubborn, not even ten oxen could stop her.

Andasu half-closed her eyes, seemingly very satisfied with Li Ang’s response to her actions.

Dorothy propped her chin and asked Li Ang, "Should I eat a bit more?"

"You better save it."

"Then help me apply sunscreen first later."

"Why are you doing this too? Is it sunny here? And what’s the connection between these two?"

Diana let out a sound like wind chimes, and everyone looked in the direction of the sound. Zoe translated, "She said she doesn’t know why we can’t eat something that sour, but if it’s sweet, she can find some."

"That’s wonderful." Li Ang immediately said. He felt like every little thing could spark a dispute among the team members, causing him headaches.

"I just love eating this."

Zoe rested her chin on her hand, facing everyone triumphantly, but when she reached out for the basket, she found it empty.

"Hmm?"

She looked up to see ALulu had already finished the last one.

"Hmm, the aroma of these cherries is a bit too sweet and cloying; it just perfectly balances with the sour berries." The pink-haired girl with bullhorns laughed. She ended the scene on her own.

After breakfast, Diana expressed her next intention. She came to resonate her Star Soul with Zoe. This is the main business of coming to the island, and before it’s done, Li Ang doesn’t plan to leave, so it’s perfect to let Zoe communicate with her.

The other girls decided to continue playing in the water.

"Yesterday, we found something underwater, and we’re planning to go down and check it out when it’s daylight," Andasu said.

"Ah, wait for me to come along," Zoe said urgently.

Obviously, she was part of the discovery yesterday and certainly wanted to participate. But Diana was waiting, so she could only leave in a hurry after saying, "I’ll be back as soon as possible."

"Go on, go on." Li Ang smiled at them.

After the girls changed into their swimsuits and left, he turned to the Moon Concealing Rabbit and asked, "Why are you here?"

"How could I possibly guess the intentions of the Divine Spirits?"

Li Ang put on a smile, thinking that this rabbit should be up to something again. Could it be setting up some troublesome plan?

The Moon Concealing Rabbit glanced at him, "Could it be you’re thinking ’is this rabbit considering something bad’ with such a rude thought?"

"Why would I? I just want the Water Dragon God to always be in a good mood."

"Hmm, seems like the time is about right."

"Hmm?"

Li Ang didn’t understand what the rabbit meant, then he saw it looking at the girls in the water.

As just mentioned, at this time, they were using floats, taking advantage of the morning sunlight to observe the shadows underwater.

Andasu left her float, preparing to dive, but was suddenly pulled into the water by a force. When she surfaced again, she had already swallowed a few gulps of water, coughing uncontrollably.

The girls looked suspiciously at the water, thinking that it was something from the bottom that caused this.

Akuya let out a triumphant laugh.

"Is this why you’re here?"

"Why? Feeling sorry? It’s just a little divine prank, what else to do when she took away my toy?"

Li Ang felt helpless. This God was quite powerful, but only willful to the extent of pulling pranks, so he couldn’t really say much. He thought to himself that he would have to comfort Andasu later.

"What’s underwater? The Water Dragon God can see it, right?" Li Ang asked.

"They can find it themselves. Leaving a surprise is also a good thing."

At this moment, the Water Dragon assumed the stance of a mature adult again.

Li Ang shook his head, pondering if he should dive in as well. Farina, who hadn’t said much, pointed in another direction. Over there, Zoe was just patting a pair of wings similar to cicada’s wings, but resembling butterfly wings more closely, as she descended from the sky.

Li Ang frowned slightly, wondering if he saw correctly. Did she just suddenly appear from a cluster of flowers? Teleportation? If the form that results from plant communication and Star Soul of the Creation Tree resonance could master teleportation between plants, it could be quite useful in certain environments.

She smiled as she flew towards Li Ang, and it was only then that he noticed her attire in this form.

The coverage of her two-piece attire was even less than a swimsuit, with vine-like trim adorned with sinuous green or golden patterns. Every part of her, be it her arms, wrists, or ankles, was adorned with rings that seemed both golden and vine-like, resembling a dancer gracefully performing on stage or a mythical figure in an artist’s painting.

At first glance, it was incredibly exquisite and beautiful, but upon closer scrutiny, it was far more outrageous than last night’s outfit. Is this what a woodland fairy looks like?

Li Ang rubbed his chin, exchanging a gaze with Zoe. It seemed like they both thought of something incredible, feeling somewhat embarrassed.

Yet, she still floated into his arms.
