Chapter 130: Lin Xi On The Verge Of Madness
“When I woke up, I found a Star Beast tearing my clothes, wanting to swallow the jade pendant around my neck, but it was attacked by other Star Beasts. They seemed to be fighting over it…
Then I thought of the green plants. I originally planned to take some out, let them fight over them, and then I could take the chance to leave here. But I didn’t expect these Star Beasts to not be that dumb… cough…”
Shi An’an: …
“Gradually, they thought I could produce these green plants, so every day they guarded me, not letting me leave. I simply… cough cough…” Shi Anfeng felt a bit uncomfortable and couldn’t help but quietly hug his arm.
Shi An’an saw that Eldest Brother was uncomfortable and a bit aggrieved, so she tried her best to hold back and didn’t laugh.
“Cough, um, Eldest Brother, that… you stay here first, I’ll look for Brother Lin’s position.”
“Okay, you be careful.”
“Mm.”
Shi An’an mobilized her spiritual sense and continued to scan the surroundings. Finally, she found Brother Lin’s position.
But…
Cough, this time Shi An’an couldn’t hold back and laughed out silently.
Compared to Eldest Brother being shirtless, Lin Xi’s appearance could simply be described as that of a beggar.
And the current Lin Xi was really a bit too pitiful. Not only was he in rags, but he was also being bullied by a group of Star Beast cubs.
One Star Beast even lifted its hind leg toward him…
“Fuck! What are you doing!!! Damn it, are you an idiot? Pissing on me!!!
Wrong, I should be the idiot. I’m going crazy now. Damn it, you might as well swallow me in one bite. I don’t want to see you anymore…”
Lin Xi went from furious to deranged and finally somewhat powerless. He didn’t know why it had turned out like this. He really didn’t want to stay here for another moment. Aaaah!!!
Suddenly, Lin Xi’s gaze turned fierce. He stared intently at the Star Beast cub in front of him that was still biting him randomly. He decided: kill one if he could. Anyway, he only had this worthless life left. He should have died that night anyway!
Shi An’an keenly sensed something was wrong and hurriedly called out to Lin Xi.
“Brother Lin, Brother Lin!”
“Who!” Lin Xi jolted awake and looked around.
The huge Star Beasts around also slowly stood up, staring intently at Lin Xi.
“Brother Lin, don’t make a sound. It’s me, An’an. You can talk to me in your mind…”
“An’an?!! Where are you? Has someone come to rescue us?”
Shi An’an fell silent after hearing this. “For now, I’m the only one who came. Because ordinary humans can’t come down here. Are you okay? Not injured, right?”
Lin Xi felt utterly powerless after hearing this. “Not injured. An’an, you should leave quickly. There are Star Beasts everywhere here, too dangerous. Your Eldest Brother doesn’t even know where he is…”
“Eldest Brother is very safe. I’ve already found him. Don’t worry.”
Hearing that his friend was safe, Lin Xi stopped worrying and let the cubs torment him with a dead-inside expression.
Shi An’an looked at Brother Lin, who had a dead-inside expression, feeling somewhat at a loss. How had that witty, humorous, and vibrant Brother Lin been worn down like this in just a few short days…
If Lin Xi heard Shi An’an’s thoughts right now, he would definitely say: Taking care of kids is too hard, and a whole group of them!!!
These cubs didn’t play by the rules at all, tormenting him in all sorts of ways, day and night. He was truly exhausted both mentally and physically.
He’d tried every method: coaxing, tricking, yelling, escaping… none of it worked!!!
Shi An’an looked at Lin Xi with some reluctance. “Brother Lin, how about you take out all the green plants and give them to the cubs? You can catch your breath and rest…”
“No way!” Lin Xi rejected firmly. “I can’t admit defeat! And I can’t let them off that easily!!!”
Shi An’an: …
“Cough cough, then let’s think of a way now, how to leave here.” Shi An’an said this to both Eldest Brother and Brother Lin at the same time.
Hearing this, both of them looked around.
The surroundings were empty; besides Star Beasts and stones, they didn’t know where this place was.
“Oh, this is Edge Star’s underground.”
“Underground?” Shi Anfeng and Lin Xi were both shocked beyond belief.
“Impossible!” They said in unison.
Although they knew the Star Beasts had dragged them down the abyss at the time, but… how could it be underground.
They’d scanned this planet how many times? How could such a vast place not be detected?!
Why?
The two couldn’t figure it out.
“Could this place block scanners?” Lin Xi thought of this possibility, which made sense.
“Maybe…” Shi An’an didn’t understand these things.
“However…” Shi An’an sensed the surroundings. “It’s possible, after all, the transmit to here was very different too.”
“Black Hole?” Shi Anfeng asked.
“Ah? Black Hole?” It was another knowledge point Shi An’an didn’t understand.
“Forget it, not talking about that. Now think about how to leave. With so many Star Beasts here, how do we go?”
Shi An’an thought for a moment. “First think about how you two can meet up. If you’re together, I’ll try to see if I can take you both to leave.”
“His position?” Lin Xi and Shi Anfeng’s voices appeared in Shi An’an’s mind at the same time.
Shi An’an shared their positions with them. Lin Xi then knew his position was relatively far, and also far from the exit.
“Like this, I’ll move outward bit by bit, and meet up with your Eldest Brother first.”
“Okay.”
Lin Xi glared at this group of cubs and reluctantly began taking out green plants.
“Awoo awoo awoo!”
Seeing the green plants full of spiritual energy, the cubs got extremely excited.
Lin Xi took out green plants while carefully moving toward Shi Anfeng’s direction, all the while paying attention to the movements of those adult Star Beasts.
However, just as Lin Xi was about to see Shi Anfeng, a Star Beast suddenly walked over, blocking his path.
“Roar!” The Star Beast drove away the cubs, and the cubs, seeing the huge Star Beast, hurriedly ran back.
Leaving Lin Xi alone to face off against the huge Star Beast.
Shi An’an’s heart also tightened. She looked around, preparing to go around the Star Beast to Lin Xi’s side.
At that moment when Shi An’an mobilized her spiritual power, all the Star Beasts suddenly stood up and looked toward Shi An’an’s direction.
Lin Xi didn’t know what had happened. Seeing that the Star Beast in front of him wasn’t looking at him, he quickly ran toward Shi Anfeng’s side.
Meanwhile, Shi Anfeng saw all the Star Beasts looking toward his younger sister’s direction, his heart leaping to his throat. He immediately threw green plants at the surrounding Star Beasts, trying to draw their attention back.
However, the attraction of the green plants had no effect on the Star Beasts at this time.
At this moment, Shi An’an didn’t move. She desperately restrained her spiritual power, hiding her aura.
Because, behind her, at some unknown time, a Star Beast had appeared, eyeing her covetously!
Shi An’an gently moved her feet. As she moved, that pair of eyes also moved.
