Divine Beast Adventures

Chapter 566: Double Happiness [Two in One]

Edited by Aelryinth

“Zhang Xiaoche, you be careful!” Huang Tielan’s voice suddenly rang out from behind him.

Zhang Che turned around and grinned. He nodded, then flew straight ahead on the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon.

To ensure all possible scenarios were covered, Zhang Che only flew over on the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon to check things out, leaving the elemental queen, as well as his other powerful pets and subdued beasts, behind to guard Huang Tielan.

That way, Zhang Che didn’t have to worry, even if an epic-quality subdued beast suddenly appeared and attacked her.

After flying for a few minutes deeper into the ravine, the area ahead widened. A pond of jade green water entered Zhang Che’s sight.

“Whether we find something or not depends on what happens next...” Zhang Che mumbled to himself. He ordered the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon to directly fly over, but he remained by the shore.

Although the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon could bring him underwater and had the ability to let him breathe normally, Zhang Che didn’t want to take the risk, considering he had no idea of the situation underwater.

It’d be too dangerous if there were any ferocious creatures below!

It wasn’t like he had no fighting strength on his own if he remained on the shore and was attacked by an epic-quality exotic beast, since he had the scarlet and white sword. He only needed to hold on for a short while and the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon would emerge from the water to come save him.

Seeing the dragon entering the water like a fish, Zhang Che decided to find a place to sit down and wait patiently for him.

After a short while, ripples formed on the calm water surface. Zhang Che’s eyes immediately lit up. It seemed like his guess was on the mark; there was indeed an unknown exotic beast below!

The ripples quickly grew increasingly violent. A jade green silhouette suddenly broke out of the water and shot up into the sky.

Immediately after, the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon appeared as well, chasing after it and pouncing at the streamlined jade green silhouette in the sky.

At that moment, Zhang Che finally got a clear look. The jade green silhouette was actually a creature with a peculiar body shape. There weren’t any limbs on its body, and it measured over two meters long, with a streamlined shape. Its front end had a keratinized sharp spike, shining with a cold and intimidating dark green light.

Despite not having any wings or similar things, it moved nimbly in the air, making the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon unable to catch it within a short period of time. Even when the dragon shot out an Extreme Yin Ray at it, the exotic beast managed to dodge the attack easily.

“Woah!” Zhang Che sighed in praise, when he saw the exotic beast with his data eyes.

========

Zhang Che’s eyes lit up after he saw the Cold Jade Beast’s attributes.

Given how extreme its attributes were, in addition to the lack of a Halo, it was very likely to be a weapon-type exotic beast. The only question was whether it was a longsword. It would be most suitable for Huang Tielan if that was the case.

“Trap it, Hanming!” Zhang Che immediately yelled out at the thought, instructing the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon to trap it in the air no matter what, and not to make any reckless moves.

He was afraid the dragon would lose his temper and accidentally kill the Cold Jade Beast. It’d be too much of a pity then!

Just as Zhang Che’s voice faded, a scarlet and white sword flew out from his brow at his will, directly chasing after the jade green light that was evading the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon.

The jade green light already had nowhere to escape under the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon’s pursuit. The exotic beast was incredibly frightened. With the addition of the scarlet and white sword’s attack, it was at a loss for what to do from fear.

Seeing danger about to hit it, that fellow no longer held back and directly activated its skill. Its whole body suddenly turned into a ray of jade green light, streaking towards Zhang Che like lightning.

As a five-star legend-quality exotic beast, naturally it was clear that it would be safe as long as it killed Zhang Che. His eyelids twitched, surprised by how fast the exotic beast’s attack was.

-Luckily I was prepared and knew you had such a skill. Otherwise, I might really have been caught by surprise.- Zhang Che lamented, but he didn’t make any moves to dodge. A five-colored light suddenly flew out from his brow and instantly materialized into a purple crystal armor, enveloping him from head to toe.

Despite excelling in physical attacks, the skill of a mere five-star legend-quality exotic beast couldn’t possibly penetrate the Purple Crystal Armor’s defense!

Zhang Che didn’t think that exotic beast’s attack power could reach divine-quality. It wouldn’t make any sense if that was the case.

Ding! The jade green light that was the Cold Jade Beast struck Zhang Che in the next moment. An enormous force hit him, directly knocking him several meters back.

Regrettably for it, the Purple Crystal Armor wasn’t something the Cold Jade Beast could penetrate. Even though Zhang Che felt a little numb in his chest from the collision, he wasn’t injured.

The jade green light faded away, and the Cold Jade Beast’s form appeared once more. Seeing Zhang Che unaffected by its skill, it immediately turned around and flashed away, trying to return into the water.

At that moment, a streak of scarlet and white light arrived at a speed even faster than lightning, slashing its body.

No matter how unique the Cold Jade Beast’s body was, and how tough its defenses were, it couldn’t withstand an attack from the scarlet and white sword, which could penetrate even the defenses of high-tier epic-quality exotic beasts.

A crisp noise rang out loudly and clearly. Jade green blood sprayed in the air. This unique five-star legend-quality exotic beast was cut in two with a single attack from Zhang Che and fell to the ground. It struggled, trying to fly again.

Given the high vitality of a five-star legend-quality exotic beast, naturally it wouldn’t die right away with only its body cut apart, but its head completely uninjured.

However, it was already impossible for it to escape.

Naturally Zhang Che wouldn’t give it any chances. The scarlet and white sword light flashed again. This time, it slashed through the Cold Jade Beast’s head, killing it thoroughly.

A five-colored light erupted, and quickly condensed into a five-colored beast card with five hexagrams on it.

Zhang Che quickly ran over and picked up the beast card on the ground, scanning it with his eyes.

========

[Cold Jade Beast]

Level: Five Star (Level 48)

Quality: Legend

Type: Weapon Type

......

========

Zhang Che couldn’t endure it any longer and burst out into laughter after seeing the top portion of its attributes. It was exactly as he had guessed. It really was a weapon-type beast card, but the type of weapon it was was yet to be seen!

He continued looking through the data. After he read the beast card could be turned into a Cold Jade Sword, the smile on his face grew even brighter. He was ecstatic, smiling like a two-hundred-pound-idiot. His voice travelled so far that even Huang Tielan could faintly hear his laughter despite being several kilometers away.

“What’s that guy laughing at? Come, let’s go take a look!”

Huang Tielan couldn’t suppress her curiosity. She spurred the Dark Unicorn under her, flying deep into the ravine.

Seeing Huang Tielan leaving, the elemental queen and the other capable beasts hurriedly followed along, afraid of any accidents befalling her. They’d be hard pressed to explain to their master if something happened.

Zhang Che finally stopped laughing excitedly after a long time. He looked at the beast card in his hand, feeling happier the more he looked at it. Huang Tielan had indirectly agreed to his proposition of sleeping together in a sleeping bag, the condition being him finding her a suitable beast card weapon.

Well, didn’t he just find it?

Although Huang Tielan had yet to achieve Tier Five beastmaster and couldn’t use the Cold Jade Sword for now, with his army of powerful subdued beasts and pets helping her for another ten days or so, it was guaranteed she would rise to Tier Five beastmaster!

Suddenly, Zhang Che turned to look in the direction of the entrance of the ravine. Soon, he saw Huang Tielan flying over on the Dark Unicorn.

“Why are you here? What if there was danger on your way here?”

Zhang Che didn’t expect Huang Tielan to disobey him and enter the ravine on her own.

Huang Tielan smiled brightly, saying, “Aiya, I heard some noise in here, and thought something had happened to you. I couldn’t endure it and rushed over. I could have helped you if there was any danger.”

-What noise?-

Zhang Che suddenly realized and remembered his burst of laughter from before. A look of embarrassment swept across his face. He chuckled, “Guess what I found in here?”

Huang Tielan pursed her lips, saying, “Judging by how loud you were laughing, what else could you have possibly found but a suitable beast card weapon?”

During the past few days, although Zhang Che didn’t say a word about not finding a suitable beast card weapon, Huang Tielan took notice of his expressions. He always looked miserable.

What could possibly make him forget about his manners and look so happy? Surely he must have found her a suitable beast card weapon! There was no need to guess.

“Look, legend-quality!” Zhang Che grinned. He dangled the beast card in his hand before Huang Tielan, bragging, “Miss, I have found what you wanted. Shouldn’t you uphold your end of the promise now?”

Huang Tielan couldn’t help but blush when she saw his wicked smile. She clicked her tongue and said, “That’s all you’re thinking about. Quickly show me.”

Done speaking, she hurriedly rushed up, wanting to see what her new weapon looked like.

They had searched for days. Truthfully speaking, she was on the verge of giving up. She didn’t expect Zhang Che’s luck to be this good, giving her such a huge surprise just as she wanted to give up.

Seeing her excited face, Zhang Che couldn’t help but sigh. He shook his head, saying, “This beast card weapon is a sword. It definitely suits you, but too bad for you, you can’t use it now.”

Huang Tielan’s face froze for a moment. She came closer and took the beast card off Zhang Che’s hand. She shifted her gaze onto the beast card, frowning. It was actually a five-star beast card. Currently, she was only a Tier Four beastmaster; she really couldn’t use it!

“Ahh..! I’m going crazy!”

They finally found a suitable weapon for her after much difficulty. In the end, she found her beastmaster tier was too low and she couldn’t use it. That kind of feeling was simply driving Huang Tielan crazy! She couldn’t resist screaming. Afterwards, she pulled Zhang Che towards her and urged him, “Come, let’s quickly go hunt exotic beasts. I want to advance to Tier Five beastmaster as soon as possible!”

Huang Tielan didn’t want to wait any longer. However, her pull didn’t budge Zhang Che at all.

She turned her head back, confused, and saw a naughty grin on his face. He pointed at the clear jade pond and said, “Look, it’s already been a week since we entered the beast world, and we haven’t found a large water source all this time. Let’s wash ourselves here properly first before talking about anything else.”

Huang Tielan immediately blushed bright red. She hurriedly tried to escape, but Zhang Che quickly caught her arm and caused her to scream out loud, “Ah, Zhang Xiaoche, what are you trying to do?! Let go of me, or I’m going to get angry!”

“Hahahaha, scream all you want. No one will hear you even if you scream until your throat bursts!” Zhang Che roared out in laughter. He picked her up off the ground and walked towards the pond with quick steps.

In her panic, Huang Tielan cried out again, a hint of fear in her voice, “Zhang Xiaoche, don’t. My clothes will get wet.”

“Then we’ll enter the pond after taking off your clothes...”

“Stupid rogue, quickly let me go...”

“No way. I’m not letting go of you today no matter what...”

The water rippled. Ring after ring spread in all directions, and wave after wave crashed onto the shore.

In the quiet ravine, other than the sound of water, only the moans and whimpers resembling that of puppies and kittens could be heard. It was the springtime of love...

—

After an indeterminate amount of time, the sky would soon turn dark. The Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon’s figure leisurely rose from the ravine.

Zhang Che sat on the back of the dragon with a satisfied expression. As for Huang Tielan, she was all limp in his embrace, finding it too tiring to even move her fingers.

She rested her head on Zhang Che, saying softly, “Zhang Xiaoche, you lech. I knew you were harboring ill intentions. You really had your way in the end. Hmph, how much time have we wasted, and how many exotic beasts could we have killed?”

Zhang Che chuckled, “It’s fine. We have tons of time. It’s not too late for us to start hunting exotic beasts tomorrow. You’ll advance to Tier Five beastmaster in ten days or so at the most, and you’ll be able to use the Cold Jade Sword then.”

The elemental queen followed the couple from a distance away, her expression strange.

She mumbled in a voice that even she had difficulty hearing, “Strange, why does it feel like master and lady master became so much closer all of a sudden? Is it because they mated earlier? Humans are really strange creatures. So confusing...”
