Volume 2 Chapter 20 Failing through the lack of a final effort
Shao Qing didn’t underestimate this man with a big smile and evil intentions. Secretly releasing dodder seeds, she attached it onto Mao Laosan’s body. Once superhumans reached a certain level, if some foreign matter entered the body it would easily be discovered. Furthermore, the dodder was hard to guard against.
By placing the dodder seeds on Mao Lansan’s body, once he gets injured, the dodder seeds would be able to take this opportunity to take root in his body.
“I am a wood elemental user, peak second rank. The vegetation that I have subdued is a man-eating flower and vines.” Shao Qing lifted her hand and released a single vine. She carefully moderated her own powers releasing only the amount of a peak rank 2 to fool Mao Laosan.
In this aspect, Yan Qiyue was not as good as Shao Qing. He wasn’t able to perfectly control his power, luckily his original rank wasn’t too high: “I am also a peak rank 2. My ability is to manipulate air.”
Mao Laosan had a moment of restrained fear but relaxed a moment later. The two peak rank 2s’ definitely wasn’t weak. However, his strength greatly exceeded theirs, so he had no need to worry about not being able to control them.
So the two of them who had just left the forest was forced to return. Exchanging looks while walking, they were already prepared to strike first to gain the upper hand.
Yan Qiyue felt especially uneasy. He could clearly tell from the gaze of Mao Laosan that he was drooling over Shao Qing. When the item is found, the first thing he probably would do was kill him off then do some unspeakable matters to Shao Qing.
Yan Qiyue’s stomach was on fire. He knew the beauty of his wife well, but to allow another man drool over it and have bad intentions?! Yan Qiyue cannot endure that at all, he had to kill him!
Having his own wife being thought about by another, if he doesn’t kill him would he still be considered a man?!
Not mentioning Yan Qiyue’s evil calculations, before he had entered the forest he had given Shao Qing two small bottles. One contained two pieces of red pills. That was the invincible pill that allowed a person to temporarily increase their fighting strength.
The other bottle contained a golden coloured liquid. This was the real invincible stuff. Pouring the liquid over any wound would allow it to revert back to its original state.
Although the side effects were quite big, during crucial moments, it could be lifesaving.
Shao Qing secretly placed those things away in her space. If she wasn’t at the end of her rope, a critical moment, then she wouldn’t touch those two items.
Yan Qiyue hadn’t given it to Shao Qing because he was planning to use it during a critical moment where he would take the medicine to erupt and protect Shao Qing. Once the danger was over and he was weakened then Shao Qing could once again protect him.
This way he would be able to guarantee Shao Qing’s safety and also enjoy Shao Qing taking care of him. Perhaps she might even be charmed by his manliness and splendour and fall in love with him. This was basically killing three birds with one-step.
However, discovering that Shao Qing’s fighting ability was several times his and the crucial point that Shao Qing could sense the danger, even if his strength was doubled, it wouldn’t be that much better. He might as well give it to Shao Qing. Once Shao Qing finished using it and was at a weakened state, then he could protect Shao Qing. Just like before he would be able to gain some favourable impressions.
Yan Qiyue’s idea was quite good except that he had totally forgotten that he had never taken care of anyone before.
After entering the forest, Mao Laosan asked them: “Have you seen a type of vegetation, with red petals when it blooms. The flower is about the size of a fist and it has dark deep green vines. The surroundings are also covered with trees in the colour of red.”
The two firmly shook their heads. The forest was so big and had all kinds of bizarre vegetation. How could they have seen it before?
Mao Laosan also didn’t carry much hope. So when he saw them shaking their heads, he didn’t feel that disappointed. Thinking for a while he continued to speak: “Then do you know where in this forest has the highest humidity?”
Yan Qiyue shook his head and spoke: “I only know that if you continue to walk forward, you will see a river.”
Mao Laosan immediately said: “Lead the way. Let’s go near the river!”
Yan Qiyue was set on doing something shady to them, so naturally he was happy to lead the way. This carried on for a day. Near the edge of the forest, unexpectedly they didn’t encounter any dangers making Yan Qiyue feel a bit disappointed. If they had met any dangerous creatures, maybe he could have secretly made a shady move during the confusion and killed Mao Laosan.
At least that way it will stop him from giving Shao Qing that vulgar lewd gaze.
Straight until the afternoon when the sun had set, travelling by foot, they hadn’t gotten too far. But Mao Laosan, even if he was more foolish, knew that in this forest, they absolutely should not travel during the night unless they wanted to lose their lives.
The group of people started to set up camp. Unexpectedly unlike Qiao Mo and them who had brought tents and such with them, they did not. After all, those materials were quite heavy so the group of them simply laid on the ground.
The food they ate was also simple and crude and just the basic rations. The type that could break off one’s teeth. For the sake of not revealing themselves, the two and especially Yan Qiyue suffered in silence and gnawed on a ration.
At this moment, he incomparably longed for Shao Qing’s workmanship. Even if it was snakes or frogs, anything would be a lot better than this.
After eating, Shao Qing borrowed the excuse of going to the toilet to prepare to vomit it out. Mao Laosan immediately spoke up: “The forest surroundings are quite dangerous, especially at night. You being a woman makes it even more dangerous. I’ll help you keep a lookout! Don’t worry, I definitely won’t peak!”
Yan Qiyue’s face immediately became green, the colour almost exactly the same as the vines Shao Qing summons. Stepping forward one step, he took Shao Qing in her arms: “No need, I can keep a lookout. My wife is a shy person.”
Shao Qing didn’t refute what Yan Qiyue called her. The originally full of anger Yan Qiyue who wanted to murder someone felt a lot better.
Mao Laosan’s face became unsightly from hearing what was said. But he knew, that since Shao Qing and Yan Qiyue were able to come out of the forest safely even if they don’t have the skills they definitely were quite familiar with the forest. At least until they find the item, he wouldn’t offend the two.
Hence, Mao Laosan waved his hand and allowed the two to go. Once Shao Qing arrived behind the tree, she supported herself as she threw up all the rations she ate. Seeing this, Yan Qiyue felt distressed as he patted Shao Qings back and lightly said: “Your body has suffered. Do you feel unwell still?”
Shao Qing shook her head and took out water to rinse her mouth. She was already used to it.
Yan Qiyue cursed in a whisper: “Don’t let me catch an opportunity. If I do, I’ll definitely cripple that f*cker!”
This was the first time Shao Qing had heard Yan Qiyue curse. When he cursed, his eyebrows would shake looking quite interesting. Shao Qing couldn’t help but laugh: “Don’t be too rash. You’ll definitely get a chance to kill him. After all, the road is long. In this forest, killing a person like that is easy.”
Yan Qiyue nodded his head, then exploited the opportunity to kiss Shao Qing on the cheek. Then his breath rather ragged he said: “Baby, you haven’t touched me in a couple of days. Look how nice the moonlight is tonight. How about….”
Shao Qing was resolute when she touched the top of his head: “Be good. There’s too many people outside. Behave.”
Yan Qiyue miserably wrapped himself around Shao Qing. Taking a final look at Shao Qing’s unshakable face, he used his teary eyes to look at Shao Qing: “Them how about you just bite me. I really can’t hold it back…..”
Shao Qing sighed and pushed Yan Qiyue against the tree. Then using a commanding tone, she ordered: “Lift your head up and show me your neck.”
Yan Qiyue loved her tyrannic tone of voice and obediently lifted his head up to reveal his fair neck. Using her finger to press down on it until she found the main artery when she pressed her mouth down she especially avoided that main artery. Taking a bite that wasn’t too gentle or fierce.
Breaking skin to see some blood, but only a little bit of it came out. The corner of Yan Qiyue’s eyes turned red and his gaze became a bit glossy. The mole beside his eye becoming a lot more evident.
At this time, Yan Qiyue’s leg had already become lax. It was only because Shao Qing was holding him by the waist that he didn’t fall. This made Shao Qing tower over Yan Qiyue. As if she was being enticed, she lowered herself and lightly kissed Yan Qiyue on the mole beside his eye and even sticking out her tongue to lick it.
Now even Yan Qiyue’s waist slackened. He was about to start begging for a whipping. Luckily Shao Qing had strong willpower. Wiping Yan Qiyue’s eyes, she stood up.
Two of them leaning against the tree, only after a little bit did they head back. Once they returned, Yan Qiyue could see Mao Laosan looking at his neck. Yan Qiyue immediately clasped the bite that was revealed, that ambiguous mark. This made Mao Laosan reveal a look of disdain.
That gaze was clearly saying you only had five minutes! Release that beauty and let me go!
Yan Qiyue:……
