Chapter 269: Chapter 269: White-Haired Rat Demon_1
Just then.
Click... click, click...
A statue with a mouse’s head started to move; it twisted its head.
Qin Feng fixed his gaze and realized that the statue wasn’t made of stone, but was an actual flesh and blood body.
In other words, the thing turning its head was truly a mouse, a large mouse sitting upright.
This was a Rat Demon.
The Rat Demon, with its tiny eyes, stared at Qin Feng, making squeaking noises from its mouth.
Suddenly, a wisp of faint white smoke appeared.
What appeared before Qin Feng was no longer a web-covered statue but a beautiful, crystal-clear Jade Pool.
Around the Jade Pool, hundreds of flowers bloomed magnificently; sunlight scattered upon the petals, appearing extremely enchanting. The water clear, reflecting the gentle ripples, and a thin mist hovered over its surface.
Splash!
A beauty emerged from beneath the water, her shoulders smooth as jade peeking above the surface, while the rest remained hidden below.
Although the water was clear, the thin mist made the underwater view hazy and somewhat indistinct.
Splash!
The beauty suddenly stretched an arm out of the water and beckoned to Qin Feng.
"Handsome, come over and play!" she invited.
Qin Feng chuckled, the corners of his mouth revealing a naughty smile.
He obviously knew that it wasn’t a beauty waving at him, inviting him over to play, but a Rat Demon.
To create such an illusion indicated that this Rat Demon had been cultivating for at least three hundred years.
Thus, Qin Feng wanted to go over and see, what kind of game did this Rat Demon want to play with him?
Xue Xiaochan also saw the Jade Pool and the bathing beauty before Qin Feng’s eyes.
She naturally saw the beauty inviting Qin Feng over to play as well.
She initially thought Qin Feng wouldn’t go over.
But Qin Feng actually started walking towards the Jade Pool, a mischievous smile still playing on his lips.
You dog, do you lose your soul at the sight of a pretty girl?
Xue Xiaochan was so angry she ground her teeth, and then slapped Qin Feng on the butt.
"Smack!"
The slap was not light; Qin Feng yelped in pain, then, holding his sore butt, turned and asked, "Wife, what are you doing?"
"What are you doing? Did you lose your soul at the sight of a pretty girl?" she demanded.
"What pretty girl? That’s a big mouse, a Rat Demon."
"So you really aren’t picky, huh? A Rat Demon looks pretty, you go for it? That’s a big mouse, you know! Can you actually go through with it?"
"What do you mean ’go through with it’? What do you think I’m going to do? I’m going over to see what that Rat Demon wants to do," Qin Feng explained.
"What does she want to do? Didn’t she just make it very clear? ’Handsome, come over and play!’" she said.
Xue Xiaochan’s jealousy, even over a large mouse, truly amused Qin Feng. He playfully looked at her and said, stirring her up further,
"We’ve been together so long, yet you’ve never invited me to play. When another great beauty invites me to play and relax, how can I refuse? If I don’t go, wouldn’t I be letting down her kind offer?"
"Oh! Look at you, all chivalrous and worried about letting someone down with your kindness," she mocked.
"Of course."
This response from Qin Feng made Xue Xiaochan grab and pinch him in frustration.
Pinching him firmly, she increased the pressure and asked, "Still, ’of course’?"
"Not ’of course’ anymore."
"Even though she’s just a big mouse, a mere Rat Demon, she looks even more tempting than a fox spirit. If your dog eyes dare look her way again, I swear I’ll pinch them out!" she threatened.
Qin Feng quickly warned, "If you squeeze it too hard and it explodes, you won’t have it to play with, will you?"
"If this madam wants to have some fun, there’s plenty more where that came from. Anyway, apart from me, no other woman is allowed to touch it, whether she’s human or demon!"
Just then.
"Squeak, squeak..."
A white-haired rat burst out from the Jade Pool.
With a push of its hind legs, it leaped into the air, lunging for Xue Xiaochan’s hand.
Though still gripping it, Qin Feng didn’t have time to think; he sidestepped and kicked the approaching white-haired rat, sending it flying away.
Xue Xiaochan, caught off guard, failed to release her hand in time.
With Qin Feng’s movement, there was naturally a slight tug.
Although the tug didn’t cause any injury, Qin Feng still inwardly gasped at the close shave.
Jokes are jokes, but if something really got damaged, Xue Xiaochan would be heartbroken.
Thus, she asked with a worried expression, "You... you’re not hurt, are you?"
"Pulled by you, of course, I’m hurt! Now that I’m injured, and it’s severe, you must comfort me properly."
"Comfort? How so?"
"With a kiss, of course!"
"Get lost!"
Xue Xiaochan, infuriated, gave a light jab.
"You’re still going at it?" Qin Feng was at a loss for words.
This lady’s touch was neither light nor heavy. Fortunately, he had practiced the Xuanhuang Medical Classic, so his body was as strong as iron and steel.
Otherwise, just with her indiscriminate pinching and probing, I would’ve been ruined by her fun long ago.
"Squeak, squeak!"
"Squeak, squeak, squeak!"
...
The enchanting Jade Pool suddenly turned into a sewer-like large black pit.
Filthy water flowed everywhere, and trash littered the ground.
A mass of white-haired rats scurried to and fro inside it.
At this moment, all the white-haired rats turned their heads towards Qin Feng, revealing their sharp little teeth, a clear sign they wanted to bite him to death.
The previously silent Princess Huahua suddenly shouted out.
"This is bad, really bad! You’ve caused a big disaster; you’ve provoked the White-Haired Rat Demon."
After shouting, Princess Huahua flew up to the rafters, keeping her distance.
"Hua, what do you mean by this? You hide when there’s danger?"
"It was you guys who provoked the White-Haired Rat Demon, not me. She originally intended to lure you into her rat hole to drain the Yang energy from your Heaven Yang Physique.
Now, you’ve gone and angered her, so she wants to use these white-haired rats to gnaw you down to the bone."
"You knew there was a White-Haired Rat Demon here, and you still deliberately brought us here?" Qin Feng asked.
"The Old Lord Gourd is the treasure of Taixu Guan, and Taoist Wuxin recently went off to wander, leaving the observatory unguarded, which is why we had the chance to steal it.
Though Taoist Wuxin is not here, the little demons and big demons he raised are still present!
You barged into Taixu Guan; these demons will not let you go.
So now, you have only two choices.
You either kill them, or they kill you!"
"Hua, whose idea was it to bring us to Taixu Guan to steal the Old Lord Gourd? Yours or the Black Dragon God Monarch’s?"
"Whosever idea it was, it was for your benefit. If you want to cultivate the Xuanhuang Medical Classic to completion and become an unbeatable Immortal Doctor, strutting through heaven, the Spirit Realm, and the Mortal Realm, you must get the Old Lord Gourd. If you can’t even secure the Old Lord Gourd, what kind of immortal are you trying to become!"
