Chapter 1058 - 1065: A Talking Ginseng King? (Part 1)
Chapter 1058: Chapter 1065: A Talking Ginseng King? (Part 1)
Although the Ginseng King was fast, its strength was rather pathetic, not even up to the King of Soldiers, and the yard was just too big for it to fully exert its speed.
The most critical issue wasn’t even this, but the constant emanation from the woman chasing it, a breath that filled it with despair and fear, making it feel like an ant facing a dragon.
This was probably due to bloodline suppression.
Of course, it didn’t realize this came from bloodline suppression; after all, being a spirit plant, it was lacking in this kind of knowledge.
If it hadn’t cultivated for thousands of years and possessed high intelligence, coupled with the fact that the woman seemed to be suppressing her aura.
Otherwise, it wouldn’t just be unable to run; just seeing this woman would make it go limp and immobile.
The Giant Bear was the same. Due to its strong power, it was better off than the Ginseng King, but it felt utterly incapable of resisting the aura emanating from the woman.
It could vaguely guess that the woman’s bloodline must be extraordinarily high, though it had no idea which kind.
So even though this woman’s power was a bit lower than its own, if they fought, it would surely lose, maybe even die.
In its view, even facing Lin Xi, it didn’t want to face this woman in front of it.
"Stop right there!" Mengmeng hadn’t caught the Ginseng King for a long time, and she suddenly felt a bit displeased. The aura she had been controlling suddenly escaped uncontrollably.
With a "bang!", the Giant Bear sat down on the ground and sweat was visible on its forehead.
What is this aura?
Its heart was like tumultuous waves, even more impressive than it had initially perceived!
What bloodline is this?
The Ginseng King also fell to the ground with a "thud," in a much worse state than the Giant Bear.
Lin Xi’s body couldn’t help but tremble slightly, but the Xuanyuan Divine Dragon Technique within him automatically activated, instantly offsetting the aura emanating from Mengmeng.
At the doorway, Su Qiaoqiao, whose strength had just reached that of a special forces soldier, was also in a bad state.
She sat down hard on the ground, her face extremely pale, but fortunately, her hands could hold onto the door on one side.
She didn’t understand what had happened; Mengmeng had just said one sentence, so why had it turned out this way?
The aura emanating from Mengmeng felt like it was suffocating her in that moment.
"Mengmeng, control your aura!" Lin Xi immediately shouted, showing a trace of helplessness on his face.
At the same time, within a kilometer radius, regardless of humans or animals, as long as they were living, everyone was utterly stunned in that moment as if they had suddenly experienced a taste of the apocalypse.
Fortunately, the aura disappeared instantly.
Otherwise, it would definitely have caused quite a disaster.
After all, there were several roads nearby and quite a bit of traffic.
Although it vanished in an instant, three traffic accidents occurred, but luckily without much harm and only slight injuries to people.
At this moment, Mengmeng had already caught the Ginseng King with one hand and looked at Lin Xi apologetically, "Daddy, I’m sorry, it’s all because of this ginseng, running around everywhere!"
"Let’s hurry inside and cook it!"
"I think it’ll taste great!"
The Ginseng King shuddered, "..."
It was utterly terrified, hastily struggling with all its might.
But it felt the hand gripping it was like an iron clamp, with absolutely no chance of escape.
It panicked even more, and if it could cry, it would be bawling its eyes out!
It immediately waved its root tendrils and the green vines on its head toward Lin Xi, desperately struggling.
Because it could feel that the woman clutching it was constantly swallowing, and her eyes were filled with raw hunger.
The nearby Giant Bear, about to stand up from the ground, hearing Mengmeng’s words, obediently sat back down with a look of surrender.
It could also feel this woman’s appetite towards it.
"Bear paws maybe?"
It felt like crying but had no tears, wondering if it was right to follow Lin Xi out.
Are people in the outside world all this terrifying?
Lin Xi hurried to Mengmeng’s side, rescuing the Ginseng King from her grasp. Although Mengmeng looked a bit reluctant, she listened to him.
"Mengmeng, you must remember, it’s our partner, not food!"
"Though I must admit, it looks like it would be delicious!"
The Ginseng King, "..."
It desperately wanted to go home!
"A partner, huh?" Lin Mengmeng pouted but still persisted, "Can I just take one bite, Daddy!"
"I promise just one bite!"
"One bite is enough!"
Beside, the Giant Bear glanced sympathetically at the trembling Ginseng King but dared not make a sound.
Or else if the woman said next time, "I just need one bear paw, just one will do!"
The thought was terrifying, so it behaved even more obediently, silently hoping the woman wouldn’t notice it.
But how could it not be noticed, given its huge size?
And being a bear, there was no way it wouldn’t be noticed, it could be said it was like a beacon in the dark.
Seeing Lin Xi shake his head finally reassured it somewhat, indicating he wasn’t that ruthless, and the Ginseng King also breathed a sigh of relief, though still terribly afraid of Mengmeng’s gaze.
Mengmeng uttered an "oh" in disappointment.
"Even though I can’t bite or eat it, we can’t just keep it for nothing!" Lin Xi said, patting Mengmeng’s head.
As soon as he said this, everyone present, including the bear and the ginseng, practically pricked up their ears.
Especially the Ginseng King and the Giant Bear, they sensed a bad omen.
Mengmeng widened her eyes with a hint of expectation, saying, "So what’s Daddy going to do?"
Lin Xi looked the Ginseng King up and down, giving it chills, before continuing, "How about squeezing out a hundred drops of life essence a month as payment!"
The Ginseng King, "..."
"Daddy, isn’t that too little?" Mengmeng frowned slightly.
In her view, how much is one hundred drops?
Is it even enough for one bite?
It seems it isn’t!
But in the next moment, Lin Xi, Mengmeng, Su Qiaoqiao, and the Giant Bear saw the Ginseng King’s tendrils and vines spinning like a fan.
Immediately, Lin Xi and Mengmeng heard its voice in their minds.
"Masters, you’re asking for my life!"
"One hundred drops a month, I’d truly die, better to eat me now!"
To it, even a single drop is the most precious essence of its life, and it doesn’t have that many drops in total.
Lin Xi and Mengmeng exchanged a surprised glance, "You actually can speak?"
But the two immediately saw Giant Bear and Su Qiaoqiao’s oblivious expressions, indicating they didn’t hear anything.
"It’s Divine Sense?" They quickly realized.
