Keyboard Immortal

When Pei Mianman and the other goddesses heard that Salamay thought Zu An had become the Monster Lord’s male pet, their expressions became strange and they all felt a sense of disgust.

This woman really has quite the imagination.

They couldn't help but give Zu An another look. When they saw that he hadn't said anything the entire time and seemed to be thinking of something, they decided to buy him some time.

Jiang Luofu said, “The young master has his ways. As for what solution he has in mind, he doesn’t have to bother telling you. The first miss should know that if the young master was really working with the Monster Lord, there would have been no need to bring you to the Cultivation World at all. Rather, wouldn’t he have helped the Monster Lord capture you?”

“The Monster Lord might just be using a long line to catch a bigger fish.” Salamay’s face darkened. “It’s clear that rather than capturing us all, the Monster Lord feels that there is something else that's more important. He might want to obtain…”

Salamay seemed to have thought of something midway through her sentence. Her expression immediately became grim.

The women exchanged a look. Ah Zu had always been curious as to what the Monster Lord wanted to obtain. Unfortunately, Salamay didn’t finish her sentence.

Jiang Luofu continued, “If the young master really was on the same side as the Monster Lord, why would the Monster Lord expose that just to make you suspicious?”

Salamay was stunned. She realized that this made some sense. However, she had been so angry earlier that she hadn't realized that.

Mojard harrumphed. “It might just be some internal conflict between you and the Monster Lord. Perhaps he was so angry that he sold you all out.”

The women were stunned. The other side really had hit the nail on the head.

Salamay also snapped out of her daze. She carefully sized up Jiang Luofu. “You're so pretty and have an outstanding presence. I don't think you're Donaire’s female slave at all. Just what kind of a relationship do you have?”

Jiang Luofu couldn't help but remember what happened between her and Zu An. She blushed.

Yun Yuqing looked at her strangely. However, they were fighting against a common enemy right now, so she couldn't be bothered to overthink it. “The first miss seems to be particularly interested in their relationship. Could it be that you have some good feelings toward the young master and feel a bit of jealousy?”

Mojard’s expression changed greatly when he heard that. He quickly looked at Salamay. Everything else was one thing, but if the first miss really did like this pretty boy Donaire, he wouldn't be able to handle it.

Salamay’s expression was completely calm. “You women share quite the deep feelings. I'm starting to become more and more suspicious of your relationship. Men, arrest them. We’ll slowly interrogate them later!”

“Understood!” Her subordinates drew their weapons. A battle seemed to be about to break out.

The True Demon great elder gave Zu An a look.

Why hasn’t Donaire reacted at all this entire time, as if his soul left his body? Something big is about to happen!

“Are you sure you want to fight here? We're in the middle of the void. Just outside is a storm of primal chaos that's even more powerful than the terrifying cyclones of the Monster World. If you end up there, not even your corpse might remain.”

When they heard what Zu An said, whether it was the True Demon race’s elders or Pei Mianman’s group, they all sighed in relief.

You finally ‘woke up'!

Zu An gave Mojard a look. It was thanks to Mojard that he'd been roused from his thoughts. His brows had been tightly furrowed in thought for a while; he'd just felt as if something wasn’t quite right, but he just couldn't say what it was exactly. It was only when Mojard said that the Monster Lord sold them out from sheer anger that he realized what the problem was.

The Monster Lord had seemed really angry. Whether it was his reaction to being fooled or that powerful attack, anyone would think that he was already beyond furious. But the problem was… Where were his Rage points?

Zu An had received Rage points from the other monsters, but he just hadn’t received any from the Monster Lord. After thinking about it back and forth, the only conclusion was that the Monster Lord wasn’t actually angry. Everything had been faked.

Zu An shivered when he realized that. After all, everything that happened should have been enough to make the Monster Lord furious. But why didn’t Zu An sense any true emotions from him?

“You can give up on trying to scare me. We're already en route. Even if we capture you, we'll still arrive at our destination,” Salamay said with a sneer. “And even if you aren’t there, it won’t make a difference. Either way, the original world is about to be destroyed. Once I save my father, we'll establish a new rule in that Cultivation World. That world is rich with resources and has delicious livestock everywhere.”

Zu An couldn't figure out what was going on with the Monster Lord. He could only face the current problem at hand. “Is that so? But this kind of spatial transport isn’t that stable. If a battle took place, the protection around us would easily be destroyed. Then, we'd all be sucked into the cosmos’ chaotic flow. That ending would be even more bitter than death.”

One of Salamay’s subordinates swallowed with difficulty. He moved closer to her and whispered something. He was a formation master and knew that what Zu An said was true.

Salamay said with a cold snort, “Fine, I’ll let you all off for now. But you need to give me an explanation.”

Zu An had a calm expression. “What is there to explain? Do you think I'd have more prospects if I sided with him, or with you? The Monster Lord doesn’t have a beautiful daughter to rope me in, you know?”

Salamays’ face actually turned a bit red for the first time. She harrumphed and waved her hand, gesturing for her subordinates to give up on their attacks.

Mojard gave Zu An a cold look.

This pretty boy is too good at gaining favor with women; that's plain to see just from the women around him. I need to find a chance to get rid of him, or else he'll definitely cause a huge problem in the future.

Pei Mianman and the other women rolled their eyes. This guy really was too good with women. Even someone like Salamay was about to give in.

Both sides soon became quiet. They all looked at the different miraculous lights that were being produced around them from the spatial transport, each having their own thoughts.

…

Some more time passed before the space up ahead suddenly lit up.

Zu An got up and said, “We’ve arrived!”

He reached out his hand as he spoke. He was reflexively about to take Pei Mianman’s hand and lead the whole group out. But when he saw their expressions, he suddenly froze. Yun Yuqing was close to him, and Suolun Shi’s eyes were full of expectation too. Even Jiang Luofu had a complicated look in her eyes. After all, the two of them had shared an experience that was even more intimate than a physical one. Zu An really loathed the fact that he didn’t have a few more arms, leaving him in such an awkward situation.

But he reacted quickly and used the chance to help Ji Xiaoxi to her feet. “Everyone, follow me out.”

Ji Xiaoxi was the youngest, and she was gentle and kind. She was like an adorable little rabbit whom everyone viewed as a little sister. Everyone liked her. Sure enough, when they saw him hold her hand, the other women's nervousness faded.

When she sensed her big brother Zu’s large hand, Ji Xiaoxi’s face turned a bit red. She looked at the big sisters with embarrassment and wanted to say something, but in the end, she didn’t say anything. For some reason, as long as she was by her big brother Zu’s side, she was no longer scared of anything.

The group quickly walked out in single file. They all shivered and tightened the clothes around themselves. As far as the eye could see, everything was white and silver. There was only snow as white as goose feathers covering everything, as well as stinging cold wind.

Ji Xiaoxi couldn't help but tremble slightly. She had the weakest cultivation here, but that was only compared to the others. Her cultivation was already extremely high among her peers. Normal cold wouldn’t do much to her at all. She'd never expected that she wouldn’t be able to handle this chill.

Just then, a warm feeling spread from her palm. She couldn't help but look at Zu An’s large figure.

No wonder big brother Zu held my hand. So it was because he was worried that I would be too cold.

In that instant, she didn’t know whether to feel happy or disappointed.

When she saw the majestic snowy mountains and the lack of life, Salamay’s expression changed. “Did we arrive at the wrong place?”

She'd been hoping to come to a new world that was fertile and rich, but this impoverished environment could be even worse than the underground city.

Could it be that the Monster Lord’s attack ended up causing us to travel to the wrong place?
