Chapter 16: Misunderstanding and Doubt_2

"You, know Shen Hongxiu?"

Both Xiaobu and Silver Moon were injured by Shen Hongxiu's Guardian Beasts from Huanhai Academy.

Shen Hongxiu was considered as one of Fang Qingqing's rivals, and they never got along well.

Unless this person was close to Shen Hongxiu, Fang Qingqing really couldn't understand why he would know about this matter.

The Goblin immediately screamed: "Oh my god, miss, you're too polite... What do you mean by knowing Shen Hongxiu, he's simply a spy sent by Shen Hongxiu!"

"How could he know so clearly if he wasn't sent by Shen Hongxiu?"

"Shen Hongxiu?" Chen Fan wondered, "Is it a person or a demon?"

As he said that, Chen Fan took Feicui off his head and placed it on his right shoulder.

However, Feicui looked at the Silvermoon Green Feather Bird and Cold Ice White Python shivering and quickly scurried back onto Chen Fan's head.

Snowy felt that the "hat" seemed to be crooked, so he used his little paws to hold Feicui and turned it around, helping Chen Fan straighten the "hat."

Chen Fan: "..."

Fang Qingqing: "..."

"I don't even know Shen Hongxiu... So, this green-skinned dwarf was injured by Shen Hongxiu's Guardian Beast?"

Chen Fan blinked and immediately shifted the blame to Feicui, saying: "I know your Guardian Beast was injured because my Guardian Beast Slime has this ability."

"Ji ji ji!" Feicui cried out twice.

I'm not that powerful!

Of course, Chen Fan was very clear...

His identity as a person "from outside" would definitely be recorded by the officials.

Blaming the Guardian Beast would seem more reasonable.

In this world of Guardian Beasts, there are countless strange creatures, with an endless variety of abilities.

Some creatures can fly without wings;

Some creatures are born with pupil techniques that can instantly trap people in illusions;

Some creatures can bathe in lava;

Some creatures spit out saliva that can be used to heal wounds, which is highly sought after by many strongmen...

What's so strange about a mutated Slime that can see the injuries of a Guardian Beast?

When I go back, I'll have it "see" the evolution route of the Guardian Beasts!

My Feicui just has such a pair of eyes!

What's the problem?

With a mutated Guardian Beast, who knows if it might turn into a handsome young man one day!

Don't believe me?

"Slime..."

The girl stared at the Slime on Chen Fan's head, looking a little lost.

"This injury is a bit troublesome..."

Chen Fan pretended to be profound and said: "You can let him eat more Sunflowers and Flame Grass, which are more helpful for treating his injury."

"Oh my god, I don't want to!" The Goblin screamed, "Miss, don't listen to this guy. You know that I hate Sunflowers and Flame Grass the most!"

Chen Fan sneered: "You don't have to eat it. If you don't, your illness won't get better in three months, so just bear with it."

Fang Qingqing pondered for a while and said: "Xiaobu is a Wood Attribute, and both Sunflower and Flame Grass are Fire Attributes, and he doesn't like to eat these two things. They are also not helpful to him."

"Whether he likes it or not, it has nothing to do with whether these two things can cure him." Chen Fan said indifferently, "I'm just telling you that there is such a method to heal him, you don't have to argue with me... After all, this is what Feicui told me."

"Ji ji ji (I never said that)." Feicui called out twice.

Fang Qingqing's face darkened: "But, why should I believe you? What is your rationale for your method?"

"Then there's no way." Chen Fan shrugged: "You can choose to believe it or not, I don't care."

"Oh my god!" The Goblin screamed, "Miss, I guess I was right, this guy who wears a green hat is indeed sent by Shen Hongxiu!"

"I don't believe a Slime can be that powerful!"

Fang Qingqing glanced at Chen Fan, her eyes turned a little colder, then she silently turned around and sat down on a cyan stone by the riverbank.

This guy is really sent by Shen Hongxiu...

He's actually using a Slime as an excuse!

A person who just came "from outside", even if he is Awakened, how could he have two Guardian Beasts within half a day?

Even if he could have two Guardian Beasts in half a day, what gives him the audacity to fight the Blue Scaled Demonic Fish of Sinking Star River with such Guardian Beasts?

How could a slime possibly possess such extraordinary and exceptional power?

Fang Qingqing's face was cold as ice, and a trace of anger radiated from her eyes: "Tell Shen Hongxiu, if she wants to fight me, just do it openly."

"Resorting to these small tricks is meaningless."

"Although Xiaobu and Silver Moon were injured, her Fire Spirit and Gold Horn Unicorn were hurt even worse."

"Who knows who will win or lose next time we fight!"

"..." Chen Fan couldn't help but laugh.

She's already sure he was sent by Shen Hongxiu.

Feicui was underestimated... She didn't believe Feicui had this kind of strength.

Well, actually, I don't believe it either.

But Fang Qingqing continued: "Did Shen Hongxiu not tell you that slimes belong to the lowest level of magical creatures? Their attack and defense are relatively weak, and they are difficult to evolve, making them not very suitable to be Guardian Beasts?"

Hearing this, Feicui shrank into a lump on Chen Fan's head, looking very inferior.

Chen Fan gently patted the Feicui on his head: "I don't know about other slimes, but our Feicui here is very powerful and incredibly cute!"

"Besides, being able to see through the injuries of your Guardian Beast proves that it is uniquely extraordinary."

Snowy on Chen Fan's shoulder also nodded, and its little paw gently patted Feicui, comforting it.

Feicui chirped twice, seeming to relax a lot.

But the Goblin sneered continuously, as if completely disregarding slime.

Chen Fan glanced at the Goblin and turned to walk downstream.

Fang Qingqing was slightly stunned and immediately said, "Wait!"

Chen Fan: "Any other issues?"

Fang Qingqing spoke coldly: "I just said that going downstream would be dangerous. Don't you know?"

Chen Fan shrugged: "Yeah, I know."

"..." Fang Qingqing sighed: "If you insist on going downstream... wait for me a little longer."

"What?" Chen Fan paused.

Fang Qingqing frowned: "I will catch a few Blue Scaled Demonic Fish for Silver Moon since she likes to eat them... and then I'll go with you."

Chen Fan: "You're coming with me?"

Fang Qingqing replied lightly: "Your slime doesn't have much attack power, if you go downstream alone, it'll be a dead end."

"Anyway, I have nothing else to do, so let's treat it as a leisurely stroll."

Chen Fan couldn't help but take another look at Fang Qingqing.

Although she misunderstood him, the girl was kind-hearted and actually worried about the safety of a stranger.

"No need, the trial itself is an experience. I'll just wander around by myself."

With that, Chen Fan paused for a moment before adding: "Let the Goblin eat more Sunflowers, Flame Grasses, Blood Lotus Essence, and Purple Orchid leaves."

"These things will help heal its injuries."

Chen Fan didn't explain the exact quantities of Sunflowers and other ingredients and didn't elaborate on the details.

In general, these things would undoubtedly help the Goblin heal, but the effect wouldn't be earth-shattering or too conspicuous.

After saying this, Chen Fan turned and prepared to leave.

This girl had a relatively good attitude towards him and even reminded him not to go downstream; otherwise, Chen Fan wouldn't bother saying anything.

As Chen Fan walked past the Silvermoon Green Feather Bird, mimicking the Goblin's tone, he said: "Oh my goodness, this Silvermoon Green Feather Bird is so beautiful, even more beautiful than a Phoenix! It's the most beautiful bird I've ever seen..."

Fang Qingqing: "..."

Goblin: "..."

Silvermoon Green Feather Bird: "..."

The Silvermoon Green Feather Bird's mood instantly turned happy, and its gaze towards Chen Fan became incredibly friendly.

Flattery gets you everywhere.

This silly bird... really likes being flattered!

Just casually praising it once, and its eyes already changed!

Sigh, this girl looks so beautiful, why does she keep collecting such strange Guardian Beasts?

What if during a battle, the enemy relentlessly praises this silly bird? Will the bird turn around and beat up the Goblin?

Chen Fan sighed quietly, shook his head, and then, carrying the leaf-wrapped package with one hand and a fishing spear with the other, he strode away.
