Chapter 267: The Druid's friend is a Wood Elf

The Druid's friend is a Wood Elf

However, in an instant, his flesh began to age, his hair turned gray, and the skin on his face seemed to lose all elasticity, becoming countless wrinkles piling up and sagging, loosening like melting wax.

Xiang Honglin the big cat saw that Cheng Shi gave up resistance and it didn't look fake. Her eyes widened, her face full of shock. She frowned, not knowing what she thought of, kicked the ground with all four legs, and rushed back with a "whoosh." She plunged into the mist, bundled the decrepit Cheng Shi with her thick, long tail, threw him on her back, and then rushed out like the wind.

The big cat's speed was too fast, so fast that Cheng Shi's loose skin was scraped painfully by the whistling wind beside him.

But Cheng Shi didn't care at all. Instead, he honestly hugged the big cat's spine and laughed weakly.

"Laughing at what!"

Hearing Cheng Shi laugh like this, how could Xiang Honglin not know that she had also been probed, and probed to the bottom.

This Fate Weaver clearly saw that she had no malice toward him, so he dared to use his own life as bait to fish for a round.

Unfortunately, she realized it a bit late and had already been hooked.

Indeed, Cheng Shi won the bet. He just felt that this 【Prosperity】 Chosen One's attitude toward him was quite strange.

Clearly wary, yet she didn't deal a fatal blow; clearly able to walk alone, yet she was willing to take him with her.

She even turned her head to ask him questions when the Sighing Mourning Tide broke out. Calling it a probe, but in fact, a normal probe didn't need to be like this at all. She could have just run away without reminding him, and then observed silently in the dark.

This secretive attitude made Cheng Shi feel that the reason Xiang Honglin was interested in him shouldn't just be because of Zhen Yi; there must be other factors, and it was very likely that she learned his name from a former teammate.

And this former teammate might have a pretty good relationship with him, otherwise the big cat wouldn't have this attitude.

Thus, Cheng Shi probed a little. He guessed that Xiang Honglin had no malice. Not only that, he also guessed that Xiang Honglin was a good person—at least a good person to a friend's friend.

Obviously, he guessed right again.

"So, *cough cough*... *cough cough*, big cat, whose friend are you exactly?"

Originally, this was just a very ordinary inquiry, without any teasing tone, but Cheng Shi never expected that this "big cat" would directly ruin the winning game.

Because Xiang Honglin exploded with anger after hearing this "big cat." No one had ever called her that, except Zhen Yi!

Thus...

The "Big Cat Knight" who was originally riding on the big cat's back was suddenly whipped and rolled up by the big cat's tail, and then dragged directly on the ground, changing from a "friend" who was rescued to a "criminal" who was being dragged.

Fortunately, the ground of the Sighing Forest was full of rotten leaves and quite soft, and the Warrior of Today had a good physique, otherwise, in Cheng Shi's current state of loose skin, he would probably turn into 【Death】's favorite look after being dragged for two meters.

But even if his life was safe, for the sake of insurance, Cheng Shi still struggled to take out a bottle of Prosperity of the Past and drank it.

When the potion entered his stomach, he suddenly felt that being dragged for a while wasn't impossible. This feeling was a bit like a forest version of a sled, except there was no snow and no sled...

Only a "Husky" pulling the sled?

The Sighing Mourning Tide was not a thick fog covering the entire forest. Its appearance had no regularity, and the coverage area was sometimes large and sometimes small.

When the rushing Xiang Honglin the big cat saw that the mist behind her was no longer so pressing, she slammed on the brakes and threw Cheng Shi onto a nearby tree with her tail.

Cheng Shi felt pain and groaned, but didn't move, instead letting himself fall to the ground and starting to play dead.

The big cat let out an "Awooo" sound, quickly shrank from the huge Forest Spotted Leopard posture, and not long after, turned back into human form. Her tube top and shorts were completely unaffected, still wrapping her hot figure.

Xiang Honglin saw Cheng Shi lying on the ground motionless, snorted coldly, pulled out a Twisted Night Python and rolled it into a wooden spear, and pressed the spear tip against his heart.

"Playing dead?

Still saying you're not Zhen Yi!"

Xiang Honglin's willow brows stood up, her eyes full of anger. Now she herself was a bit uncertain. This Fate Weaver in front of her kept jumping on the boundary line between being and not being Zhen Yi, provocatively teasing her nerves. If she hadn't heard this name from a certain friend, this annoying Fate Weaver would probably have become a ghost under her spear long ago.

At this time, Cheng Shi was pressed to the ground, gray-faced, constantly spitting out rotten leaf residue, and while spitting, he complained:

"Alright, sister, since you know me, I'll confess to you:

I am the Cheng Shi you've heard of, and I am indeed a Fate Weaver. If you really know me from a friend, you should know that the Fate Weaver thing must not be a lie.

I have grafted many people's fates, and I have helped many people with their fates."

Xiang Honglin's face was a bit ugly: "Fate Weavers can't run that fast."

"How to say this, before the 【Gods】 descended, I practiced sprinting. My results were very good, almost made it to the provincial team.

But one thing to say, I run fast but lack endurance, so that stop wasn't giving up, it was really out of energy."

"Practicing sprinting on all fours?"

"Yeah, the latest research results in the sports world, I researched it.

When you transform into... a Forest Spotted Leopard, don't you also run on four legs?"

"......"

Xiang Honglin was speechless. She had never seen anyone who could turn a lie into nonsense in front of her.

However, after this exchange, she finally confirmed 100% that Cheng Shi was not Zhen Yi.

Zhen Yi was poor, but not stinky poor.

She wouldn't say meaningless words, because every sentence of hers was a scam to turn people into jokes.

Cheng Shi saw Xiang Honglin's attitude soften and immediately asked the question just now: "Who exactly told you about me?"

But Xiang Honglin didn't answer him, instead taking the snatched bottle of Prosperity of the Past and sniffing it carefully, raising her brows and saying: "Real goods?"

Cheng Shi was stunned, knowing that this was Xiang Honglin's answer.

Real goods or fake goods?

His brain immediately began to recall everything about Prosperity of the Past, and not long after, he thought of the bottle of "Fleeting Glimmer" he had created, and remembered the 【Annihilation】 trial that took place in the wild and everyone in the trial.

After excluding Old Master Cui, Zhao Qian, Su Yi Da, and Gao Yu one by one, a familiar pretty face appeared in his mind.

Tao Yi!

So Xiang Honglin was Tao Yi's friend!

Cheng Shi suddenly realized, and then laughed heartily:

"The Druid's friend is a Wood Elf, this is too reasonable. Ha, I should have thought of it earlier. How is Tao Yi doing now?"

Xiang Honglin's face softened when she heard Tao Yi's name. She looked at Cheng Shi with a scrutinizing gaze again and nodded slightly.

"Very good, except for always thinking about wild men, nothing is bad."

"?"

I feel like you have something in your words, but I don't intend to get to the bottom of it. ===== CHAPTER 268 =====
