Mythical Beasts: The Useless Lady Is a Genius!
Chapter 33

Targeted

“Who is it?” Kong Rui exclaimed in alarm.

There seemed to be someone else’s aura in the room, but Kong Rui felt that it seemed illusory.

The illusory aura confused Kong Rui.

In the next moment, an old voice sounded from outside Kong Rui’s window. “Ling’er, are you asleep?”

Kong Rui recognized the Patriarch’s voice and said softly, “Patriarch, I’m still awake.”

The Patriarch nodded and pushed open the door.

“Did you also sense something amiss?” The Patriarch asked when he saw Kong Rui’s guarded look.

“Patriarch, do you know who it is?” Kong Rui asked directly.

The Patriarch sighed. “I didn’t think it through today and let you bring that griffin to show off.”

“With this commotion, I’m afraid there will be people who covet it and come to cause trouble.” The Patriarch looked at Kong Rui and reminded her cautiously, “You must be careful these few days. I will also send a few people to protect you.”

Kong Rui nodded and didn’t reject the Patriarch’s arrangements.

After all, in such an environment, with the Li family as her protection, she could avoid some trouble.

The Patriarch walked out of the room. Kong Rui could vaguely hear conversation outside.

“Have you caught him?” the Patriarch asked in a low voice.

“Patriarch, he escaped!” The Third Elder’s voice sounded.

“Useless thing!” The Patriarch suppressed his anger. “If anything happens to Ling’er in the next few days, I’ll blame you!”

There was silence outside the door.

After a long while, Kong Rui confirmed that those people had left.

She laid on the bed leisurely and thought about how she would compete with Wen Qiong tomorrow.

Only by facing Wen Qiong would she have more chances to come into contact with the Little Phoenix!

As for the Li family, they were just afraid that others would covet the griffin that they had obtained with great difficulty!

Kong Rui thought for a moment and probed her storage ring with her divine sense. “Little Lion, let me ask you, can you transform into other spirit beasts?”

Little Lion blinked its eyes in a daze. “It’s easy for low-level spirit beasts to transform. If high-level spirit beasts want to transform, they will need to consume more spiritual power.”

“We’ve already been in the limelight enough today. Tomorrow, transform into another spirit beast to avoid unnecessary trouble.” Kong Rui thought for a moment. It was safer this way.

After all, her goal was not to win the competition, but to save the phoenix!

Although the little lion didn’t understand Kong Rui’s intentions, it still nodded. “Alright! I’ll listen to you!”

...

In the cave of the Spirit Mountain, Chao Bai slowly sat up from the ice coffin and looked in a certain direction outside the cave. “You’ve been guarding me here for three days. When are you planning to leave?”

The demonic creature outside the cave sensed that Chao Bai had already awakened, and its heart tightened.

However, Kong Niang had already ordered that no matter what, they had to save Rui Rui from Chao Bai.

The demonic creature gritted its teeth and tried its best not to stutter. “Kong Niang said that she has a way to let you leave this cave, but the premise is that you have to return Rui Rui’s body to us!”

“Body?” Chao Bai was somewhat puzzled. Then, he remembered that before he fell asleep again, he seemed to have seen a woman’s body.

He looked down at his side and realized that his hand was still holding her fair and slender hand. “So your name is Rui Rui?”

Chao Bai’s whisper made the demonic creature outside the cave especially nervous. “Don’t hurt Rui Rui! Otherwise…”

“Otherwise?” Kong Bai raised his eyebrows. He really didn’t believe that this demonic creature would dare to do anything while he was awake.

The demonic creature gritted its teeth and said, “Otherwise, I’ll rush in! Kong Niang gave me a Dharma treasure that can restrain you!”

“You should know that Kong Niang has plenty of ways!” The demonic creature took out Kong Niang as a trump card, hoping to scare Chao Bai away.

As if he had heard a joke, Chao Bai raised his head and laughed wildly.

At this moment, a divine sense entered the cave. “You’re awake.”

There was a hint of a smile on the corner of Chao Bai’s mouth. “I thought the people of the Demon Abyss didn’t care about anything. Now, it seems that the outside world has misinterpreted the Demon Abyss.”

Kong Niang sent a voice transmission with her divine sense again. “The Demon Abyss doesn’t care what the outside world thinks! When has the Chao Clan ever been accepted by the outside world?”

When he heard Kong Niang’s words, it was unknown what he thought of, but he smiled sadly.

After a while, Chao Bai said, “You have a way to get me out?”

Kong Niang’s voice sounded again. “The premise is that you can’t hurt this body beside you.”

“No problem!” Chao Bai didn’t hesitate.

“Also…” Kong Niang spoke again,” You have nothing to do with the Demon Abyss in the future! ”

“Deal!” Chao Bai didn’t hesitate.

He had waited for this day for long enough!
