Chapter 390 - She Shouldn’t Know Some Secrets (1/2)

Summer comes suddenly. One morning shortly after the monsters come to congratulate the white bear on its move, Lin Luoran feels the temperature has dropped sharply. She gets up and finds the snow begins to melt.

The temperature rose overnight and the snow melted. Lin Luoran even witnesses a flash flood after she gets up.

The acc.u.mulated snow for six months rushes down from the top of the mountain after melting. Those low-rank monsters don’t even have time to celebrate winter turning to summer and some of them have been drowned. Lin Luoran is deeply touched by the scenery.

It is the coldest when snow melts. She couldn’t help taking out the rabbit fur coat from s.p.a.ce and wears it.

The white bear steps on the muddy water and returns to the house. Lin Luoran is thinking about where it goes in such an early morning when the white bear asks her to pack up.

What happened?

“I will send you over the mountain today. Hurry up. If you miss this opportunity, you will have to wait another year to leave here under the Rank Nine monster’s watch.”

Crossing the mountain? Lin Luoran is so overjoyed that her brain turns blank for a while. Actually, it has been a year since she entered the node of s.p.a.ce in the Bohai Sea Bay. Lin Luoran never stops thinking about going to Mount Penglai. In fact, she wants it more.

Some people’s obsession is like making wine. After the precipitation of time, their enthusiasm will not fade out. On the contrary, they will have more intense emotional fluctuations on the day when the wine is opened after their obsession is sealed to ferment after a long time. For Lin Luoran, the longer it delays and the more she pays, the more she wants to find Penglai.

She has little to pack up so she sets off immediately with the white bear.

The hillsides are full of puddles of different depth. It is a common situation after snow melting. Although roads are slippery, the monster forest still takes on a new green look after been covered with white snow for the whole winter.

Towering old trees and vines are washed clean by snow water, which looks particularly translucent. Many new gra.s.s buds were buried deep in the snow but now they can see the suns.h.i.+ne. Lin Luoran follows behind the white bear and walks through the forest. The bear is extremely fast and it is not affected by its seemingly bulky body at all.

They are climbing higher and higher, closer to the top of the mountain. When Lin Luoran thinks she is about to face the Rank Nine monster, the white bear suddenly stops.

“Let’s wait.”

Wait for what? White bear says nothing more and Lin Luoran also doesn’t ask because she doesn’t care about how the white bear will send her away. Lin Luoran is very happy that the bear can keep its promise.

Of course, Lin Luoran still suspects maybe the white bear will send her to h.e.l.l deep down in her heart. She then denies such kinds of ideas because of their unequal strength—with the white bear’s personal ability, it does not need to kill her by the Rank Nine monster’s hand.

After waiting for an hour but gaining nothing, the white bear pulls weeds aside and takes Lin Luoran to another road.

She follows it and feels they are going higher. It seems that they are really bypa.s.sing the Rank Nine monster and walking to the other side of the mountain… is it possible? Lin Luoran feels her heart is pounding. She is flushed with excitement so her honey-colored skin is also glowing with a soft color.

“This way leads to a hot spring. The one on top of the mountain spends half a day in the hot spring every year on the day of melting snow then sleeps all day. It is your only chance to cross this mountain. ”

The white bear is robust. Lin Luoran finds it almost floats on the rocky path without any help from Wakan. As for the hot spring it said, she can see it after walking for half an hour.

This place is steaming hot. She can know it is very close to the top of the mountain by the terrain. According to the white bear, it is extremely risky but still much safer than just confronting that monster face to face. Lin Luoran squeezes the blue jade in her hand. The mermaid said that this beautiful jade could stop the Rank Nine monster for a moment. She can only rely on it if something unexpected happens.

Lin Luoran discovers with her sharp eyes that there is definitely a long narrow path extending in the other direction near the white misty spring. The white bear doesn’t lie to her!

She is overjoyed and feels much relaxed. Lin Luoran is about to go for it. However, the white bear suddenly becomes alert and holds her back.

“You just miss our annual meeting for this human girl?”

Under the white fog, a female voice suddenly rings and it totally surprises Lin Luoran. Why is a woman speaking here? No, it’s the monster forest. There are only female monsters except Lin Luoran!

She doesn’t a.s.sociate the cold but beautiful female voice with the one at the top of the mountain now. After all, the image of the mysterious Rank Nine monster in Lin Luoran’s mind is the dull growl a few months ago and the broken body of the double-headed antelope.

However, the white bear looks as if he were facing a mighty enemy and it doesn’t even move a bit.

The female voice is angry but sad, “You know I can only be sober for one day of the whole year. Why do you treat me like your enemy?”

White bear’s voice is a bit low, “Do you know you killed the two-headed antelope we have both taken care of for a while in this year when you lost your mind?”

The female voice suddenly becomes silent. It seems to be scared by what the white bear said.
