Shen Ying made several rounds around the Myriad Beast Peak until the beast regained consciousness, yet she still couldn’t find the transportation array. She hesitated and considered jumping off the peak. That was how she got off peaks in Invincible Sect, anyway.

Suddenly, she spotted a flash of light from inside the dense forest to her right. She recalled that the transportation array also emitted white light, rejoicing in her heart, she walked toward the dense forest. She brushed aside the leaves in front of her. Then, her eyes widened.

So much… money!

(☄⊙ω⊙)☄

A cave loomed in front of her. The walls of the cave were made out of spirit stones which continuously emitted white light. As she approached the cave, she sensed a strong gust of spirit Qi rush toward her. Shen Ying touched the walls of the cave. The Yi Family was truly a local tyrant. She suddenly felt an urge to call Father Niu.

Shen Ying gave in to her desire to explore the cave. The inside of the cave was huge, and it looked just like a spirit stone mine. The floor and walls were all covered in superior-grade spirit stones The floor felt smooth and there was nothing else in the cave, save for a huge… white ball of fur in the center?

Shen Ying didn’t remember many beasts aside from the ones that could be eaten. She did not remember seeing a beast so white that even the spirit stones on the ground could not compare with its fur. Its forehead was long and clear as a crystal horn.

She subconsciously reached out toward the beast which slept soundly. Suddenly, the beast’s eyes burst open. It was enraged by the intruder. Its white fur stood, looking as tough and sharp as needles. It looked at Shen Ying with extreme caution as it began to growl.

“Hey, you’re awake!” The beast’s fur bunched up, making it like a huge furball.

The furball’s eyes grew even wider as it glared at Shen Ying’s hand. Its growl became louder. Shen Ying once again happily reached out toward the beast and patted its head. Then, she combed the fur on the beast’s head, following the flow of its fur from the top of its head to its

neck.

The furball hesitated. It looked frightened for a second as it continued to stare at Shen Ying. Then, it looked down at her hand. It did not respond.

She… can feel it?

Shen Ying loved the feel of the beast’s fur. She placed her other hand on the beast, combing through its fur with both hands. “Mm, it feels so good. It’s going to be so delicious.”

The furball lost all of its earlier defensiveness. It obediently walked toward Shen Ying and intentionally – or unintentionally – leaned in toward her palm. It’s quite self-conscious, Shen Ying caressed it more joyfully. She combed its fur from its head to its tail, feeling up its muscles.

“Mm, its body is huge. It can definitely last me a long time. I don’t know if it’s expensive? Would Father Niu agree to buy it? Eh… why is it a different colour?”

As she patted the beast, the pure white fur at the beast’s nose tip became red, as if somebody came and dyed its fur right under her nose. Slowly, its entire body turned red.

Shen Ying’s heart skipped a beat. Does it have some skin disease?”

“Who is this, who dares to invade…” Just as Shen Ying tried to figure out what was happening to the beast, a familiar voice sounded from the door. Yi Feng, who had already descended the peak earlier, suddenly charged into the cave with his disciples following behind him. He hesitated when he recognised Shen Ying.

“Sect Master Shen? How are you…” He turned to look at the furball beside her. His eyes widened. Pointing to her hand resting atop the furball, he said, “You… you can touch it?”

“I can’t touch it?” Shen Ying hesitated. She quickly retracted her hand. “I’m sorry, I didn’t realize.”

The furball looked up at her and pressed its head into her palm once again, without hesitation.

“Sect Master Shen, how did you get here?” Yi Feng asked, walking toward Shen Ying. He studied the beast as several emotions flashed past his face.

“Oh, I couldn’t find the transportation array so I walked around and ended up here,” Shen Ying answered honestly. “That’s right, what beast is this? It looks really delicious. Are you selling it?”
