Chapter 147
As evening fell, Jiang Chen was overlooking the Realm of Beasts from the cliff. The mountains there seemed endless. The thought that he had been sent here and couldn’t leave at will depressed him.
“The monsters are more active at night. Let’s take the opportunity to hunt them.”
Jiang Chen pointed at where the sun sets and said, “We’ll arrive in the city at daybreak. I’ll leave you there.”
These cities were shelters the bigger groups had built in the Realm of Beasts. People could stay there safely without worrying about monsters attacking.
“Okay.”
Shui Sheng knew the gap in their states was too huge for them to travel together. Otherwise, it would bring no good to either of them.
The two walked down the mountain. They didn’t have to make any effort to look for monsters, since they kept showing up in front of them.
It couldn’t be monsters that were using such methods. Jiang Chen landed carefully on the shore, grasping the Redcloud Sword tightly in his hands.
Suddenly, he saw a figure not far away. He noticed that it was a man when he got closer.
The man heard Jiang Chen’s footsteps and looked over. He looked nervous.
“My friend…”
Jiang Chen eased up when he found that the man’s strength was only ordinary.
But as soon as he spoke, the youngster hurried to run away as if he had seen a ghost.
Jiang Chen didn’t understand why and didn’t bother to think about it. He took a wooden barrel out of the mustardseed ring and filled the barrel with water, then took off his clothes. After, he held the barrel high and poured the water down on himself.
After getting rid of the smell of blood, he changed into some clean clothes and was going to leave.
But to his surprise, in the lake, not far away from him, a shadow was approaching him.
Jiang Chen thought of the youngster’s expression and didn’t dare let down his guard. He flew into the air so that he could fly away in case anything unusual happened.
Plop!
The shadow suddenly broke the water and water splashed about.
Jiang Chen thought it was a powerful monster, but he was struck dumb. To his surprise, it was a woman!
Her fair flesh was completely naked. The curve of her body in the water could be vaguely seen.
She was pretty and seemed to be enjoying swimming, but she was struck dumb when she saw Jiang Chen, who was standing in the air and gazing at her.
“Ah!” she screamed. She had a small, cherry-like mouth.
“I have to go!”
Jiang Chen came to himself and fluttered his wings to fly away, but this time, he failed. Without having flown very far, he sensed a chill in the air from behind.
He looked back and only saw a shadow.
Suddenly, he turned pale and hurried to stop. It was a woman with astounding beauty standing before him.
She was wearing white clothes. Her hair was still wet. Obviously, she had just bathed.
This woman wasn’t the one Jiang Chen had seen, but he was dumbfounded. She still had some drops of water on her face, and she was extremely pretty. Jiang Chen couldn’t even breathe.
He would keep gazing at her and appreciating her beauty if her look wasn’t so cold.
“Apprentice sister,” Jiang Chen greeted her embarrassedly.
This woman was Li Xue’er, number one on the Beauty List.
She was also a key disciple of the Natural Law School.
Jiang Chen looked at her feet, trying to figure out why she was able to fly, but his pupils suddenly dilated.
He couldn’t believe there were such perfect feet in the world.
Li Xue’er was barefoot. The skin of her instep was almost transparent, under which her veins could vaguely be seen. It was fair and crystal clear, as moisturized as high-quality jade. Her toenails were almost rosy, like ten small petals.
“What’s the third greatest rule in the Natural Law School?” she asked in a cold voice.
Jiang Chen was struck dumb and said, “Any disciple who is a lecher and does things that discredit the school will be severely punished.”
He immediately realized what she meant. He hurried to explain, “Apprentice sister, I didn’t know you were there. I spent the whole night killing monsters and really needed to wash myself.”
“Yeah?” Li Xue’er showed a cold smile and said, “Was it the same that day at the Transdragon Pool?”
