Not A Cultivator - Chapter 152
As the Water Moon Owl watching while it perched from a tree branch, Fei Bao Xing stared back at it with a glare.
“Hooot…”
The Water Moon owl seemed happy, as it has done its job.
However, it just made Fei Bao Xing angry. He wished he could catch that little bird ripped its eyes out and pluck its feather one by one.
But, without the proper level, there’s just no way he could even get close to it. Besides, even if he could, there’s no point since there was another spirit beast in front of him.
The Spirit Beast was no less big than a giant twenty times his size. With a glowing green swamp beneath which just makes it creepier. It has a purple fin and horrific dead eyes, and teeth sharper than an ordinary alligator. Its deep dark purple skin was poisonous that no other spirit beast would go near the swamp.
“Grraaaarr….”
It roared loudly, creating a gush of wind towards Fei Bao Xing. The giant purple fish already marked Fei Bao Xing as its meal.
Fei Bao Xing himself did not know what kind of spirit beast or how powerful this purple fish was. However, there’s no doubt, the fact that it carried a red key on its neck, meant that he’s doomed.
So, in this case, what should the powerless Fei Bao Xing do?
Fei Bao Xing, “…”
Exactly nothing! As he was hopeless, and already gave himself up to death, he just sat there on the ground while waiting to be eaten alive.
Fish, “…”
At the same time, the fish seemed to take its time. It looked confused at the frozen Fei Bao Xing. Then, as if it does not mind, it’s dead eyes turned back into a grin.
“Grrraaarrr…”
It roared once more with its mouth was wide opened. The neck was long enough to reach it’s prey while its body remains on the water. While taking its time, Fei Bao Xing’s surrounding was already covered by the fish’s mouth. The only thing it has to do was close it’s mouth to end Fei Bao Xing’s life once and for all.
[This is it… My life will end as a meal of a fish…] Fei Bao Xing sighed and closed his eyes.
Fish, “…”
Suddenly, the fish shuddered. It was an underwater spirit beast and was always wet, but if someone were to see it from outside, they could see it was sweating profusely.
[Hmmm… I’m not eaten yet?] Fei Bao Xing peeked opening one of his eyes. “Ehhhh…”
The situation before his eyes baffled him. The fish not only did not eat him, it even bowed to him like he was a king.
“Gruurruu…”
The crying sound of the fish was soft, its eyes and face were full of fear. Although he could not speak in the language of a spirit beast, Fei Bao Xing knew that it was asking for forgiveness.
[What is this… What is making this fish changed it’s attitude so much?] Fei Bao Xing could not understand, but it was nonetheless to his advantage. Yet, he still has to be careful as everything he says needs to be filtered as it could just maybe affect the fish’s attitude.
[Could it have mistaken me for someone else or something? Could it mistook me for someone powerful or a significant being?]
The first thing was not to show any weakness and pretended the fish does do something wrong, although it never did. If he even showed weakness, the fish would probably realise he was not as crucial as it thought it was.
“Hmmm… You seemed to have realised your mistake…”
“Gruurruu… Gruuuruu…” The fish repeatedly nodded with a little smile as the man in front of him guessed correctly.
[It’s correct? But, what it did wrong?]
“I will not forgive you…”
“Grurruuu!!!” The fish shook its head. It was saying it will do anything for forgiveness.
Then, Fei Bao Xing directed his eyes on the collapsed Guan Ru Yi. She breathed like she was gasping for air. Moreover, her backside was severely injured as lots of blood gushed out. There was no doubt, she was in a crisis, and will soon die if she was not treated.
Once again, the fish was sweating as it realised that the woman it just defeated was someone important to the man. The fish hurriedly swallowed some green swamp water in its mouth and spurted it out again at Guan Ru Yi.
Suddenly, Guan Ru Yi was showered with the water got better. Although she did not recover completely, the injury in her back seemed to have closed up a bit, and her breathing became normal.
Fei Bao Xing was quite relieved. It turns out, the green swamp water has a healing power in it.
Then, he nodded. “All right, I will forgive you because you already atone for your sin.”
“Grrruurruu!” The fish nodded happily.
“Ahhh… One more thing…”
***
“Young Lady Min!!!”
Guan Ru Yi shouted as she’s awake from its sleep.
“You’re awake. Don’t force yourself too much.”
“Fei Bao Xing…”
Guan Ru Yi gaze fell upon the Fei Bao Xing before she realised the current situation. She turned her head around, but could not find the person she’s looking for.
“Where’s Young Lady Min?”
“Young Lady Min is not here yet, she went the wrong way while trying to rescue you. Let’s just rest while we wait for her to found us. Anyway, aren’t you supposed to call her Chang Miao?”
“Ah!” Guan Ru Yi realised her mistake, and worse of all, Fei Bao Xing seemed to have picked up on it. She glared at Fei Bao Xing angrily with killing intent.
Fei Ba Xing sighed, “Look, I know that you girls were trying to hide Chang Miao’s identity. I won’t tell anyone, so don’t look at me like you’re trying to kill me.”
Guan Ru Yi pursed her lips reassured by Fei Bao Xing’s words. But, it does not mean she won’t kill him, it’s just now was not the right time.
AS she has calmed down and waiting for Chang Miao, she touched her back over her left shoulder. She realised that her injury has been treated, and the poison she received seemed to have been cured as well. Quickly she stared at the glowing green swamp, there was nothing on it.
“You defeated that fish!?” Guan Ru Yi asked with a surprised look.
[There’s no way I could defeat it… It just mistook me, and I talked my way into it.] But, there’s no way Fei Bao Xing would say that. In the end, he just smiled without saying anything while showing the red key he received. [I did not say that I dealt with it. But, if she mistook me that I took care of that fish, it’s not my fault, right.]
“Impossible!” said Guan Ru Yi as she stood up. “The Toxic Swamp Goby is at least a Fifth Rank Spirit Beast. With that size, it’s at least a Sixth Rank…”
[But, Toxic Swamp Goby… Where have I heard of the name of that species spirit beast?]
Fei Bao Xing has forgotten, but Toxic Swamp Goby was one of the species in the Eternal Beast Alliance. Exactly was the reason it asked for forgiveness once of it realised Fei Bao Xing was their saviour.
Meanwhile, Guan Ru Yi slouched down. She sighed as she sat down, “So, you’ve been hiding your skill all along. If you can defeat that monster fish alone, there’s just no way we could ever kill you. To think we make such a huge mistake…”
“…” Fei Bao Xing has no words to reply since he was appalled that the girls really did try to shut him up.
“But, you know that didn’t you? Fei Bao Xing. You knew the fact that we’re trying to kill you. But, you still help me anyway…” Guan Ru Yi said softly. “Thank you!”
“Haahaa…” Fei Bao Xing could only wryly laugh.
* Grruuukkk… *
Now come to think of it, he has not eaten yet. Earlier, he tried to drink the swamp water, although it has healing power, it was not drinkable. In fact, the not so tasty smell of the swamp water made him vomit. Now, he was hungrier than ever. If he did not eat or drink soon, he would definitely die.
“Here…” Guan Ru Yi took out a rice ball and a bottle of water. With her hand extended out with the food, her eyes looked away from Fei Bao Xing.
“Ehh… For me?” Fei Bao Xing asked, “But, the rule…”
“Who cares about the rule!? It’s okay as long as no one finds out.”
“Thank you, Guan Ru Yi. You’re a kind girl, after all!”
“It’s Min Zhi Yi…”
“Ehh…”
“My real name is Min Zhi Yi. Please keep it a secret…”
“Yes! Don’t worry, I won’t tell it to anyone…”
“Quickly, take food. Do you want to eat or not?” Min Zhi Yi cut him off.
“Yes… Yes… I’ll take it!”
The moment the food was tossed to Fei Bao Xing, Min Zhi Yi turned around and looked the other way as she could not face Fei Bao Xing. She touched her blushed red cheeks with both of her hands since she was unable to contain her embarrassment.
[What have I done!? Why did I give my real name to him? But… Fei Bao Xing looked so handsome just now… No, it must be an illusion!]
She quickly stole a glance at the man who focused on eating the rice ball. Then, she looked the other way again, this time with her face redder than before.
[Oh, no! Young Lady Min, what should I do? I, Min Zhi Yi have fallen in love with Fei Bao Xing…]
“Hooot… Hoot…”
Both of them did not realise, but the Water Moon Owl was still there looking at the entire situation.
