Lian Xichen...

Lan Ling chuckled beside him, saying, "Brother Xichen, Xiao Xue is really strong, there’s no need to worry."

If it wasn’t Ling Xiang who took Xiao Xue last time, he wouldn’t have been so agitated. It’s almost impossible for ordinary people to deal with Xiao Xue.

Lian Xichen was left speechless by the carefree attitudes of these people, wondering what the senior brother would think about it all.

Han Jing called everyone to move on.

After that, they still encountered quite a few quirky monsters. It was hard for everyone to imagine how these monsters grew to be so bizarre, gazing at Han Jing and the others with fierce eyes. Some would rush in to attack directly, while others would steer clear.

Gradually, Han Jing realized there was some intelligence in certain monsters; they might launch an attack simply because they were afraid.

And generally, these monsters were around the Green Flame Level, so Han Jing’s group was not really harmed, in fact, they could be easily vanquished.

After clearing out a few waves of monsters, Han Jing decisively stopped attacking them, instead choosing to scare them away before proceeding. 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦

Until they encountered a white, fluffy creature with one blue eye, one green eye, about twenty centimeters long—looking somewhat like a cat, but with a tail... Okay, an indescribable tail, black, with a sharp arrowhead at the top, like an arrow stuck on its behind. Oh, another strange feature was the cat’s ears were round instead of pointed.

Even with their wide range of experiences, no one among them had ever seen such a breed of... cat?

Anyway, after walking for nearly three hours, from morning till afternoon, this was the first creature they saw that wasn’t terrifying—in fact, it looked adorable and fluffy.

However, this little creature seemed to be badly injured.

There were bloodstains on its paws and fur, and it appeared unable to stand, nestled weakly in the grass, meowing faintly.

It sounded somewhat like a cat: "Meow-ow~"

Children naturally have a liking and affinity for cute pets, and Xiao Xue was no exception. Seeing this adorable little creature, the little girl couldn’t help but jump off Youyou’s back, walk over, and squat beside the round-eared cat, staring with her round eyes curiously at it.

The round-eared cat, noticing someone approaching, waved its paw intimidatingly at Xiao Xue and attempted to stand, but probably due to severe injuries it stumbled again.

Xiao Xue quickly stretched out her pudgy hand and waved it: "Don’t be afraid, I won’t harm you. You’re hurt, let me heal you, okay?"

The little creature remained vigilant, still not trusting Xiao Xue.

Yet Xiao Xue showed no intention of giving up, chatting away: "I’m called Xiao Xue, what’s your name~"

The response was a weak, somewhat angry: "Ow~"

"Why don’t we call you Bai Bai then, since you’re so white. Oh, but your tail is black, well, that’s okay, Bai Bai it is. Now Bai Bai, are we good friends now? Can you come with me, so I can heal you~ If you don’t want to come, I can take you home. Where’s your home?"
