Chapter 12: Ling Tao

The magical beasts’ forest was usually full of crises.

When walking in the forest, one must be careful.

Of course, this students group were only in Ru Kong, so they were only moving around in the outermost patch of the forest. This place couldn’t be considered dangerous… Not to mention that there was still the lead teacher secretly guarding the group, which normally wasn’t enough to endanger lives.

But no one could guarantee that such an adventure wouldn’t get anyone killed.

But, opportunities co-existed with dangers in a cultivator’s journey.

If you don’t look forward to a small academy adventure and was worried…then it was better to stop cultivating while you could.

A group of nine people walked cautiously through the forest.

Yuege was a bit distracted, Zhu Yu was also involved in this adventure, but she was in charge of the overall safety… She probably wouldn’t appear in front of the Ru Kong students.[1]

Suddenly, Jiufang Xuanling stopped walking.

”The purple flower under that tree is the Zhiyun plant!” He motioned for his teammates to look over. “Thats’s on the list can be exchanged for Adventurer points.”

The academy listed a list, and as long as they hunted the beasts on the list, or picked the spirit plants that were on it, they would receive the corresponding Adventurer points.

At the end of the Adventure, the team with the most points would be the final winner.

Memorizing creature knowledge… No, memorizing the list of magical beast and spirit plants comes into play at this point!

However, in the end, Yuege was only starting to remember the list, and didn’t understand much – at this time, the Jiufang scum who possessed a Dragon scale pendant with an old hag inside, naturally became the team’s dictionary, and even Lu Renbing and the other dude weren’t so obviously mocking him.

As soon as the Zhiyun plants’ name came up, a girl who had chosen to study Alchemy recalled, “To pick the Zhiyun plants, you must wear ice silk gloves. Grab it by the roots and pull it up by the roots, then put it in the jade box.”

”Go on then!” Lu Renbing was anxious and was busy urging.

”But… But this Zhiyun plants has already matured, there will definitely be Shiyun – Cloud Eater Ant guarding next to it!” The wood-spirit alchemist girl was crying without tears.

Shiyun ants… It was a monster on the list, but – this ant was a metal spirit root, with a great attack power, not to mention that metal could beat wood, the alchemy girl thought it was unbeatable, so she retreated.

All six pairs of eyes turned to Yuege at the same time, shining with hope.

Yuege: “…Then I’ll be the one to deal with this Shiyun ant.”

Okay, let’s fight the ants.

”Wait a minute!”

Jiufang Xuanling leapt out of the group and volunteered. “Fire can beat metal, I’m a fire spirit root, I can beat that Shiyun ant, let me do it!”

Yuege thought for a moment and smiled: “Okay, Senior Jiufang please.”

The six team members who knew nothing: Σ( ° △°||)

No, Captain! Wouldn’t it be good to keep this rich dog’s life as a spirit plants identificator?!

What if he was seriously injured by this Shiyun ant’s squeeze and kick, and couldn’t continue his cultivation?

Yuege smiled warmly and said, “I believe that Senior Jiufang has such skills.”

’Of course I have to believe it.’

In the novel, all the people in the same team as Jiufang scum – except for Jiufang scum and his harem – were all over the top shitty cannon fodder.

One of the reasons they’re hated by the Jiufang scum was: What? You didn’t let me participate in hunting – are you looking down on me? Fine! Then I’ll show you what I can do!

The cannon fodder captain then got pwned.

It wasn’t as if Yuege was afraid of this, but since Jiufang Scum had taken the initiative to help out as free to pay laborer so she agreed to let him work.

What’s more, if she remembered correctly… A new heroine would appear after this scene.

Jiufang Xuanling had a flame on each hands and walked towards the Zhiyun plant.

Step after step, he reached the canopy of the tree… then he saw a large white ant jumped down from the canopy of the tree, its sharp madibles[2] pointing straight at Jiufang Xuanling’s head

The six members of the team screamed in terror.

Xiao Junye, who was shaking his folded fan, also looked grave.

Yuege watched calmly, but she actually had to control herself not to look as if she was eating an exuberant melon.[3]

As expected, Jiufang scum dodged the sharp mandibles without missing a beat, and the flames from his other hand attacked the node between Shiyun Ant’s chest and abdomen – its weak point.

Of course, if it had been so easy for him to get its hands on it, Shiyun Ant wouldn’t be so famous. It flew to protect the node, blocked the flames with its stinging claws, and with a sharp whistle, it stabbed at Jiufang Xuanling with its pointy needle-like tail….

As the two sides went back and forth, Jiufang scum kept roaring “Hey” and “Ha”, while Shiyun Ant let out a whistle from time to time.

Yuege watched with great interest, as if she was watching a live version of Ultraman who was fighting the monster of the week.

Gradually, Jiufang Xuanling had the upper hand.

”This rich dog… is quite powerful…”

”I’m afraid this Shiyun Ant is equivalent to the late stage of Ru Kong!”[4]

”If it were me, I’m afraid I would have been severely injured by the Shiyun Ant’s move… He actually did it.”

The six team members were discussing, impressed by the strength of the Jiufang Xuanling.

Yuege glanced at them, her smile gradually deepening… These guys probably won’t be cannon fodders anymore, good for them.

Over there, the battle between Jiufang Xuanling and the Great Ant had reached its final stage.

Only to see Jiufang Xuanling’s flame-burning fist blasting straight at the node between Shiyun Ant’s chest and abdomen, Shiyun Ant that had lost several stinging claws was unable to resist, and could only dodge with difficulty, but was unable to….

While the crowd was rejoicing as they saw that Shiyun Ant was about to die under Jiufang Xuanling’s fist, they saw a light purple light strike out from behind themselves, blocking the fist.

Yuege laughed.

‘So here she is.’

”Who!” Jiufang scum turned around alertly.

”Why are you bullying it!?” A squeal came out, and a young girl jumped out of the forest behind him.

Yuege raised her eyes and she saw a pink fluff on the girl’s shoulders, and was suddenly certain – it was the Ling -Spirit- Clan’s Saint Maiden.

The Spirit Clan’s Saint Maiden, Ling Tao, was petite, pretty and beautiful, wearing a small light purple dress and always had a fluffy pink spirit mouse on her shoulder.

She was originally staying in the Spirit Clan, but she accidentally activated a teleportation formation within the clan, which was why she has appeared in the Twilight Mist Forest in the Human Empire.

Ling Tao lightly passed over to Jiufang Xuanling and appeared next to the Shiyun Ant in the blink of an eye, crouching down to check its injuries while emitting strange syllables from her mouth.

Shiyun ant weakly held its head high and made strange rattling sounds.

The more Ling Tao listened, the angrier she became, and looked up, glaring viciously at Jiufang Xuanling.

”You – how could you guys do that!” The little girl was so angry that she became speechless. “Bullying the magical beasts are too much! My big sister was right, all of you humans were big bad!”

The words came as a shock to everyone.

”Jiufang! Get over here – she’s foreigner!” Xiao Junye was the first to react and shouted anxiously.

From the perspective of the human race, all the other eight races would be referred to as foreign races. Those who weren’t of our race had different hearts, and foreign races were always excluded by the human race.

”…Why should I run away?” Jiufang Xuanling was unconcerned. “And you, girl, why are you coming up here and cursing at people?”

The latter half of the sentence was said to Ling Tao.

Ling Tao opened her eyes wide and condemned, “How dare you ask me! It has told me all about it, and it is so good at guarding the food It has found, and it’s watching for its fresh fruit, but you are going to steal it! You are going to steal it it, so its natural for it to fight back, and you try to kill it – you would have cut it in two if I hadn’t come! Are you saying you aren’t bullying it!?”

The crowd: “…”

’That… sounds right, too.’

‘But this was a Shiyun ant, a magical beast! What’s wrong with killing monsters?’

Yuege: “…Haha.”

Yes, this was a famous scene, Ling Tao’s first meeting with Jiufang scum.

This scene established Ling Tao’s unshakeable position as the Purest Heroine in the text.

Actually, Ling Tao was right.

The Ling clan has the ability to communicate with the spirits of the world, and as a Saint maiden, Ling Tao, with her pure heart, grew up with a group of spirit race and all kinds of magical beasts and spiritual plants from a young age.

In her eyes, the magical beasts were her friends. Now, she had seen such a bad human race, who thought stealing from the beasts wasn’t enough, and wanted to do the outrageous act of killing magical beasts!

…Naturally, she was going to come out and stop this annoying human race.

Of course, her hatred didn’t last long.

‘I don’t know what the author was thinking, but how could such a kind girl look up to the Jiufang scum that had killed countless monsters? Later, she helped the Jiufang scum kill… It was confusing.’

”You can’t say that, little girl. The weak are prey to the strong, and even if it wasn’t me but another Shiyun ant that came today, it would have done the same.” Jiufang Xuanling said righteously.

Ling Tao replied tit for tat[5], “Fine, weak is the prey to the strong, according to you, I’m stronger than you, would you dare to kill it in front of me?”

Jiufang Xuanling was speechless.

He couldn’t see the level of this little girl who had suddenly appeared, yet he could feel her vast and profound spiritual energy.[6]

He truly couldn’t beat her….

Jiufang scum was wilting.

Shiyun ants were behind Ling Tao, dazzlingly swinging their antennae.

Yuege cleared her throat, “This girl, may I have your attention?”

Ling Tao paused, turned to her and blinking innocently.

”Speak, I’m listening.”

Her tone was surprisingly good.

”Ara, actually, it attacked us first.” Yuege’s face was filled with innocence. “Our people didn’t even touch its Zhiyun plants with their hands — but this Shiyun ant went ahead and attacked us, and if it wasn’t for Senior Jiufang’s quick reflexes, he would have been cut into five, no, maybe six, no, seven- no, eight pieces by now! Even the internal organs would be cut out… the kind where the skin would be opened, the bones would be crushed into tiny bits, and the blood would be splattered all over the place!”

Yuege’s expression was spot on, she looked pained and confused, “What have we done wrong? We saw glimpse of its beautiful form hidden by the tree canopy, we wanted to say hello… Was that wrong of us to do?”[7]

Jiufang scum: “…”

’Can you not say with so much detail about how do you think the process of how I would die!?’

’Besides, what’s the point of explaining it like that, this girl is obviously on the side of Shiyun ant…’

When Ling Tao heard the words, looked down at Shiyun Ant, and said something again.

Shiyun ant, unaware of what was going on, rattled back a reply.

The next moment, Ling Tao simply got up and got out of the way.

”Alright, settle your grievances on your own.” Ling Tao exclaimed. “Alas, you, Shiyun Ant, are a bad Ant! Since you were the one who started with bad intentions, it’s only right that you were killed by them. I don’t care about you!”

Shiyun Ant: ?!!!

Yuege smiled.

Ling Tao was innocent, yes, but her innocence was also naturally ruthless.

Ling Tao’s previous opinion was Jiufang scum’s side was wrong, so she would naturally protect Shiyun Ant.

But now, after knowing that Shiyun Ant was the one who made the first move… The weak who was provoking the strong was the wrong one.

Then why should she help out?

Ling Tao was standing only on the side of the justice~

Footnotes:

[1] Aww, MC is missing FL!

[2] Mandibles are a pair of appendages near the insect’s mouth – basically it’s teeth?

[3] Eats Melon: When ones sees a big event, equivalent to Western’s Eat Popcorn idiom

[4] In case anyone forgot: the level stages are : early, middle, late and peak.

[5] Her reply was to oppose his reply with equal harshness

[6] So when a cultivator couldn’t see the others’ level, the answer: Because the other has higher level than them. Both Ling Tao and Zhu Yu should be at least 3 or 4 levels higher than MC, so it’s either at Kong Tian or Deng Yun level.

[7] Clearly Yuege was pretending to be pitiful in front of Ling Tao, truly a white lotus. Actually she was… kinda right, just omission of some parts. That is, they actually planned to take the Zhiyun plant lol.

Author:

Ling Tao: You’re a good Shiyun ant, so I’ll help you!

Yuege (looks sad): Ara, this Shiyun ant is a bad ant, it wants to kill us, if we aren’t strong enough, we would be miserable… ah…

Ling Tao (thinks): ….

Ling Tao: Okay, Shiyun ant, you’re a bad ant, I’m not going to help you!

Shiyun ant: QAQ?!

Zhu Yu (blank face): I have to appear, thank you.

—-.

How could Ling Tao be a truly Saint character? Her childlike innocence is the most unpredictable~

XWV: Ara ara Yuege with pure white lotus personality~~~ Next chapter Asura field between Zhu Yu vs Ling Tao, and Yuege in the middle- or maybe it doesn’t count if only Zhu Yu thinks she has a love rival~ As for Ling Tao, she’s… you know, like those kids with terrible utube prank that was harming others because wasn’t taught kindness to others or something. Thankfully Yuege could make use of Ling Tao’s ruthless innocence for her own benefit…

Ririka: Thank you KittenSnips, Another wordsmith, and ST Anon, here’s an Asura update! Special thanks to ST Anon we have read your mail~ Next chapter Asura update in Wednesday~
