Supreme Crazy Wife - Chapter 87

Chapter 87: Another Encounter With Ju Ri (2)

“How dare you kill my children!”

The fire ant king finally showed up after almost half of the fire ants died.

“Finally came out.” Leng Ruoxue stopped attacking and looked at the fire ant king with her beautiful eyes. Why do these kings like to cower in fear so much? Can’t they just come out openly? Why are they so shy?

The fire ant king was more than twice the height of ordinary fire ants. Its whole body was as bright as burning flames, and it had two large pincers raised high. It was a level five holy beast, and it would definitely be as strong as a level nine holy beast with its ability to control its fire ant colony.

So many good assistants! Not bad, she was very satisfied.

Seeing the fire ant king emerge, Leng Qingtian also stopped. The grandfather and granddaughter stood aside tacitly and gave the battlefield to Ye Chen.

“Big ant, come here,” Ye Chen said softly like the big bad wolf luring Little Red Riding Hood.

“Damn humans! I won’t let you go!” the fire ant king roared furiously and charged at Ye Chen.

Ye Chen clenched his fist and punched the fire ant king on the head.

With a loud bang, the fire ant king was overturned, and its feet were upside down in the air. Due to its size, it couldn’t turn over no matter how hard it tried, and all it could do was keep kicking its legs.

“Human, you are too despicable! I won’t let you go!” the fire ant king roared in grief and indignation. You are bullying ants… Wuuu wuuu… Damn humans!

“I-is this possible?” Cold sweat dripped down everyone’s forehead.

Leng Ruoxue glanced at the fire ant colony, which were so scared that they wanted to burrow into the ground. She walked to the fire ant king and knocked his fiery-red body.

“Not bad, pretty sturdy!” Leng Ruoxue praised.

“Fire ant king, shall we discuss something?” Leng Ruoxue asked extremely kindly.

“What? Humans, you are too despicable!” the fire ant king roared indignantly.

“Aren’t you the despicable one? There are only so few of us, but look at how many ants there are among you.” Leng Ruoxue pointed at the ants that hadn’t died yet.

“T-this…” The fire ant king was speechless. It seemed that… it had more on its side.

“Fire ant king, I will spare your lives as long as you agree to be his spirit beast. What do you think?” Leng Ruoxue pointed at Liu Yan.

“I don’t want to be the spirit beast of a weak human,” the fire ant king said disdainfully. It had its pride even though it was only an ant.

“Then die!” Leng Ruoxue said indifferently. An immense amount of fire-attribute spiritual power was released from her fingertips and hit the fire ant king. It was just an ant, so no big deal.

“N-no! I don’t want to die! I agree to be a spirit beast!” the fire ant king said without a spine. Wuuu… It hurts. How can this human kill me just like that? Too scary!

“You should have known better!” Leng Ruoxue said discontentedly as she tamed the fire ant king.

“Liu Yan, come down and contract with it!” Leng Ruoxue said to Liu Yan.

“Thank you,” Liu Yan said to Leng Ruoxue gratefully after establishing the master-slave contract with the fire ant king.

“I, Liu Yan, am willing to acknowledge Leng Ruoxue as my master. I will always be loyal and will never betray you,” Liu Yan said suddenly. Then the contract array descended to establish the contract.

“You’re not bad. You definitely have a bright future following our young lady.” Feng Da patted Liu Yan’s shoulder. He liked this smart little fellow.

“You didn’t need to do this,” Leng Ruoxue said lightly. She only did things according to her mood and never expected to get anything in return.

“I did it willingly,” Liu Yan said. He hadn’t spent much time with them, but he liked the atmosphere between them. He didn’t know when it started, but he actually had the desire to become one of them.

“Everyone, rest early. We have to continue hiking tomorrow,” Leng Ruoxue said helplessly.

“Xue’er, let’s not meddle too much in other people’s affairs in the future. Otherwise, we’ll have to bother with more people in the future,” Ye Chen said with some displeasure. Liu Yan and the other students were the same. All of them wanted to follow Xue’er. Even though they weren’t a threat to him, he was still very displeased.

“I’m going to bed.” Leng Ruoxue rolled her eyes at him. Jealous men are unreasonable.

…

Five days later, Leng Ruoxue and the others emerged from the Thousand Cry Mountain without any mishap. Everyone had a fruitful harvest, and their faces were full of happy smiles. Few dared to come to this Thousand Cry Mountain because of its reputation, so Leng Ruoxue had gathered a lot of herbs and edible mountain treasures in this mountain. The others also had their own harvests.

“Xue’er, Cloud City is just up ahead. Let’s find an inn to freshen up!” Leng Qingtian said. These children are as dirty as beggars.

“Okay.” Leng Ruoxue nodded.

After entering Cloud City, they found an inn and stayed for only one night before setting off the next day.

After leaving Cloud City, they walked for almost two days and arrived at Dark Mountain Town, the nearest town to Lunar Capital.

Leng Ruoxue and the others found a random inn, settled in, and went to the restaurant downstairs to eat.

“Ruoxue, after we pass this Dark Mountain Town, we will reach Lunar Capital,” Elder Qiu said. This was the first time he had traveled for so long to participate in the Academy Competition.

“Elder Qiu, how many days until the Academy Competition?” Leng Ruoxue asked.

“There are still five days. We will probably reach Lunar Capital in two days,” Elder Qiu said.

“Ruoxue.”

Leng Ruoxue suddenly heard someone calling her name. She turned her head and saw Ju Ri standing not far away, waving at her.

“Big Brother Ju, did you accept a new mission?” Leng Ruoxue asked doubtfully.

“We haven’t even reached Lunar Capital yet!” Ju Ri said helplessly. The princess they were protecting was really troublesome.

“Big Brother Ju, don’t you have flying spirit beasts? Why are you using carriages?” Leng Ruoxue was a little puzzled. If they used flying spirit beasts, they would have arrived in Lunar Capital long ago.

“The princess is afraid of heights, so we can only use carriages,” Ju Ri said somewhat gloomily. He had told his father not to accept this mission, but his father just wouldn’t listen to him. In the end, that noble princess kept finding trouble along the way, and his mercenaries also had a lot of complaints.
