Chapter 151

Little Miss Miss Ganyu threw herself into Gu Chen's arms and wailed.

"Don't cry, be good."

Gu Chen touched her head and said with a smile: "Little Miss Miss Ganyu defeated the monster, very powerful."

"Eh?"

Little Miss Miss Ganyu was stunned.

She didn't do anything, and actually defeated the monster?

"Why?" Little Miss Miss Ganyu was puzzled.

"Because you got stuck in its esophagus, causing it to be unable to breathe. Even if I didn't come, it would have suffocated to death, so it counts as little Miss Miss Ganyu defeating it!" Gu Chen smiled!

Fierce beasts are usually enormous.

The fierce beast that had swallowed little Miss Miss Ganyu into its mouth appeared even more unimaginably huge.

Even though it was already dead, little Miss Miss Ganyu still felt extremely terrified.

This was an instinctive fear of a creature whose size far exceeded her own.

But Master said she had defeated this monster!

Little Miss Miss Ganyu’s brows immediately unfurled into a smile.

"Master, am I very amazing?" little Miss Miss Ganyu asked.

"Mmhmm, very amazing."

Gu Chen nodded, wiped the blood from his long sword, sheathed it, and then picked up little Miss Miss Ganyu.

Once she was lifted up and her line of sight was raised, little Miss Miss Ganyu saw countless fierce beasts torn into shreds outside of Jueyun Karst.

The earth was covered in sword marks, as if a fishing net had fallen from the high sky, wiping out all the fierce beasts right there.

Little Miss Miss Ganyu widened her eyes, feeling deeply shocked.

She glanced at the fierce beast she had defeated; although she was very amazing, compared to Master, it was nothing worth mentioning.

But since Master had said she was amazing, little Miss Miss Ganyu still felt proud.

"Master, I want to go find Auntie Cloud Retainer!" little Miss Miss Ganyu said.

"It just so happens she is over there cleaning up the battlefield, go ahead." Gu Chen pondered for a moment; there was no danger now, so he simply placed little Miss Miss Ganyu on the ground.

As soon as she touched the ground, little Miss Miss Ganyu moved her small legs and ran quickly in the direction of Cloud Retainer.

Before long, she saw Cloud Retainer using adeptal energy to clear the battlefield.

"Miss Miss Ganyu? Why are you here?"

Cloud Retainer was stunned the moment she saw Miss Miss Ganyu.

She noticed Miss Miss Ganyu’s hair was a mess, her body seemed a bit sticky, and she was even emitting a strange odor.

Cloud Retainer asked with a solemn expression: "Are you hurt?"

"No, no I'm not!"

Little Miss Miss Ganyu hopped and skipped over, then, as if showing off, narrowed her eyes into crescent moons and said: "I defeated a fierce beast! Master praised me for being super amazing!"

"Huh?"

Upon hearing this, Cloud Retainer was stunned for a moment before laughing out loud: "How could that be?"

Miss Miss Ganyu was still so small; what ability did she have to defeat a fierce beast?

"It's true!"

Seeing that Cloud Retainer didn't believe her, little Miss Miss Ganyu explained eagerly: "Master said that fierce beast swallowed me into its mouth, I got stuck in its esophagus, and it suffocated to death!"

Cloud Retainer was even more stunned.

After sizing up the round and chubby Miss Miss Ganyu, she couldn't help but burst into hearty laughter: "Hahaha, that really is an amusing story... to have easily subdued the opponent because you were too fat and got stuck in its esophagus..."

[Missing text in source]

Cloud Retainer laughed louder and louder.

Little Miss Miss Ganyu froze.

She lowered her head to look at herself.

Looking a bit disheveled, she was indeed round and chubby like a fat ball.

After getting familiar with Cloud Retainer and the others, little Miss Miss Ganyu had seen them in their human forms; their figures had beautiful curves, very lovely.

She had originally thought she would grow up to be like that too...

Looking at herself, a chubby little thing that had even choked a fierce beast to death.

Her attention had been entirely on her subduing the fierce beast, but now, hearing Cloud Retainer’s laughter, she suddenly felt a bit dejected.

"What's wrong?"

Seeing little Miss Miss Ganyu suddenly become dejected and frustrated, Cloud Retainer was a bit puzzled.

"Nothing."

Little Miss Miss Ganyu shook her head and walked away.

Cloud Retainer was at a loss.

What was going on with this child?

She had just been happily sharing such a funny story with her, why did she suddenly leave?

"Could it be because this adept didn't praise her, so she's unhappy?"

Thinking of this possibility, Cloud Retainer suddenly realized.

"Waaaaah!"

Little Miss Miss Ganyu cried so hard that those who heard it would shed tears and feel sorrow.

She sat pitifully by the side of the road, sobbing.

"What's wrong?"

Gu Chen walked over with confusion and asked.

"N-nothing..."

Little Miss Miss Ganyu sobbed, trying hard to stop herself from crying, but the more she thought about it, the sadder she became.

"Who made you unhappy? Tell your master, and I will go have a word with them to reason things out." Gu Chen reached out and patted her head.

"Woooooo..."

Little Miss Miss Ganyu cried even harder, burying her head in Gu Chen’s arms, snot and tears streaming down.

Gu Chen gently patted her back, a helpless yet amused smile appearing on his face, and said softly: "Our little Miss Miss Ganyu can even defeat a fierce beast, who would dare bully you? They truly have no eyes; tell me and we'll go teach that blind fool a lesson!"

[Continuation of previous line]

Gu Chen shouldn't have said that; the moment he did, little Miss Miss Ganyu cried even harder than before.

Gu Chen was completely baffled.

After waiting for a while, little Miss Miss Ganyu asked in a small voice: "Master, will you despise Miss Miss Ganyu?"

"Hmm?"

Gu Chen was stunned; this question left him confused, but he still smiled: "Little Miss Miss Ganyu is so cute, how could I despise you?"

"Master is the best." Little Miss Miss Ganyu hugged Gu Chen’s neck tightly, her little nose still sniffing.

"Didn't you just go to find Cloud Retainer?" Gu Chen asked softly.

Little Miss Miss Ganyu pouted: "Auntie Cloud Retainer laughed at me!"

"Hmm?"

Gu Chen was stunned: "How did she laugh at you?"

"I said I subdued a fierce beast, Auntie Cloud Retainer didn't believe me, and when I said I got stuck in the beast's esophagus and caused it to suffocate to death, Auntie Cloud Retainer just kept laughing!" little Miss Miss Ganyu complained aggrievedly.

[Continuation of previous line]

Gu Chen weighed little Miss Miss Ganyu in his arms, his expression becoming somewhat strange.

He finally understood what had happened, and after pondering for a moment, he said: "So that's how it is. Don't blame your Auntie Cloud Retainer; she probably just hasn't seen such a novel way of defeating an opponent before. Regardless, that fierce beast was defeated by our little Miss Miss Ganyu, and that alone is worth being proud of."

[Continuation of previous line]

"They all become so slim when they turn into humans, but I'm just chubby..." little Miss Miss Ganyu wiped her tears.

"It doesn't matter; this just proves that little Miss Miss Ganyu can eat, and being able to eat means little Miss Miss Ganyu is very healthy."

Gu Chen comforted her while carrying her up the mountain.

After being quiet for a while, little Miss Miss Ganyu tried asking: "If Miss Miss Ganyu stays this chubby forever, Master really won't despise me?"

"I won't. No matter what Miss Miss Ganyu is like, she is cute. How could Master despise you?" Gu Chen shook his head.
