Chapter 227: Sister Meng's generosity: she gives both a beast egg and a pill

~8 min read 1,449 words

Ye Xiu pushed the Qi Blood Pill in his hand toward Lin Meng's face, making it clear he wanted to give her the Qi Blood Pill.

Lin Meng glared at him darkly and said in an annoyed tone:

Keep the pills for yourself for now; use this time to quickly boost your strength. Officer Xu will surely tamper during the Hundred Ghosts Night Walk. You not only have to figure out how to deal with the strangeness, but also guard against his secret attacks. So don't mention repaying me now.

After finishing, Lin Meng looked around, sensed the area, confirmed no one was near, and beckoned Ye Xiu over.

"Come with me; let's go deeper inside. I have something to give you."

Before Ye Xiu could ask, he felt his hand taken by a soft hand and unconsciously stepped forward to follow.

Seeing the petite figure standing before him, Ye Xiu felt a special sensation for the first time—a feeling that he could sacrifice his life for this person.

This person, unrelated to him by blood, repeatedly pulled him out of the mire, giving him warmth and the finest care in the world.

The boy's little thoughts were well hidden; only his ear tips turned slightly red, unnoticed by anyone.

Seeing they had reached the depths of the forest, Lin Meng stopped, turned, and looked at Ye Xiu with a stern expression.

"You said earlier that there are no magic beasts in this world, so summoners seem useless."

Ye Xiu nodded and said:

"These past few days I've been looking for a relatively strong animal; I've set my sights on a black panther, but I need the black market to hunt one for me."

Ye Xiu had already planned this; the black panther has explosive power, and the black market happens to have the channels.

Lin Meng thought for a moment and said:

"If you have your own plan, that's fine; the black panther is indeed good. I have a beast egg I'd like to give you, but I'm not sure if this egg is like a magic beast and can be contracted by you."

While saying this, Lin Meng took out the black spirit beast egg from her third space.

The appearance of the egg made Ye Xiu's eyes tremble in shock, his breathing becoming a bit hurried.

Lin Meng stroked the egg in her bosom and said softly:

"How to hatch the egg and whether it can be contracted as your summon beast—I cannot tell you, because I don't know either; you'll have to figure it out yourself."

The egg had been offered to Ye Xiu, but he stood stunned, never intending to reach out to take it.

He felt apprehensive, unsure if he truly deserved to possess this egg.

"Sister Meng has already done him great favors; now she wants to give him such a precious beast egg. No matter how he thinks, he feels guilty, thinking he's not good enough to deserve such sacrifice from her."

"Sister, I—"

Before Ye Xiu could finish speaking, Lin Meng knew what he was about to say and quickly interrupted.

"Are you trying to tire me to death? This egg is heavy, so hurry up and take it!"

Lin Meng pretended to be annoyed, saying as she shoved the egg into Ye Xiu's embrace.

Hearing the egg was heavy, Ye Xiu indeed reached out and took it.

But when the egg actually landed in his arms, he realized Sister Meng had said that on purpose.

For a moment, his eye sockets grew hot and red, tears about to spill.

Seeing this, Lin Meng couldn't help but laugh and say:

"You're this big and still crying over an egg? It's just an egg; I didn't expend much effort to get it, keeping it is useless, so I might as well give it to you to try."

"But I can tell you clearly: what's inside is a spirit beast, not the magic beasts you speak of. They strengthen themselves with spiritual energy, while you only have eerie energy here; I'm not sure if it can adapt."

"It might even be difficult to hatch."

"To be honest, Lin Meng now feels a bit guilty about this beast egg, having taken it from the Heavenly Gang Continent to this strange world, leaving her homeland behind, and even the spiritual energy has turned into eerie energy."

"Perhaps when it breaks out of its shell, seeing this scene will make it die of anger."

"But never mind; for Ye Xiu, this is a hope, and he must give it a try."

Ye Xiu heard Lin Meng's words and was shocked to the core.

"Just who is Sister Meng? She has too many secrets."

Ye Xiu's first reaction was that Sister Meng's secrets must absolutely not be known by anyone here; he must find a way to give her a new identity in this place.

"Quickly put the egg into your backpack; you don't have a personal storage space, so it's a bit troublesome."

Lin Meng furrowed her brows, suddenly thought of something, and took out a black storage bag from her space.

This storage bag was also given by Ye Fan; the one he gave himself naturally can't be given away, but a storage bag obtained through killing and looting can be.

"Try seeing if you can use this storage bag; drop some blood on it."

Ye Xiu was astonished again and again by the treasures Lin Meng kept pulling out; after finally coming to his senses, he felt a faint prickling on his fingertip.

Immediately after, Lin Meng pinched his finger, squeezed out two drops of blood, and let them fall onto that black cloth bag.

The next second, a white light suddenly shot out from the storage bag and quickly entered Ye Xiu's forehead.

"Success! Truly unbelievable!"

"A storage bag from the cultivation world actually works in this strange world."

"What about the pill?"

"The Jade Marrow Pill that Ye Xiu and Zhizhi ate earlier is merely a mortal pill; taking it is harmless, but Lin Meng hopes Ye Xiu will try the Yellow Dragon Pill, which is truly effective for cultivation."

"Do you think you can take this pill?"

Ye Xiu had not yet recovered from the sudden appearance of the miraculous storage bag when another mysterious-scented pill appeared before his eyes, leaving him utterly dazed.

"Sister, enough, enough—I can't keep taking your precious resources."

He truly wanted the beast egg; Sister Meng said she would give it to him, so he accepted it.

This storage bag is even more miraculous; he likewise cannot refuse it.

But Sister Meng wants to stuff him with another pill, and he really has no face to take more.

Lin Meng tapped his forehead, saying, "Listen, quickly see if you can eat it."

Ye Xiu's handsome face flushed slightly as he carefully stored the storage bag, his gaze falling on Lin Meng's plain white palm.

"The aura emanating from that pill makes him wary; after just one glance, Ye Xiu shook his head and said solemnly:"

「Older sister, this time it's not that I want to refuse your kindness; it's that this pill I really can't eat, the energy it contains seems to exceed my tolerance range。」

Lin Meng heard the words, nodded slightly, and put away the Yellow Dragon Pill.

Spiritual qi and sinister qi may be different.

「Bring the Qi-Blood Pill over so I can have a look。」

Ye Xiu hurriedly handed the Qi-Blood Pill to Lin Meng; Lin Meng took it in her hand and examined it closely, then raised her eyebrows.

How does this Qi-Blood Pill smell a bit like the Aperture-Opening Pill? But it also seems to have a hint of Jade Marrow Pill's scent.

However, you can tell that the quality of this Qi-Blood Pill is really not great; it's far inferior to the Aperture-Opening Pill in her hand.

「This pill is quite ordinary; go sell it on the black market for money to improve your life. As for the pill, you can have mine。」

Saying that, Lin Meng took out three porcelain bottles from her space.

「These are Aperture-Opening Pills; you can each take one to compare. Definitely, my Aperture-Opening Pills work better. There are thirty in total here; take them first to consume。」

Ye Xiu was again shocked by Lin Meng's grand gesture, about to refuse, when Lin Meng said:

「Don't worry, this pill isn't worth much to older sister; I still have several hundred. Moreover, this pill is useless to me, so you can just take it to play with。」

「Hurry up and take it; today older sister I am being generous—normally there's no such good deal。」
