Chapter 1314: Two Proud and Aloof Beings

I’m going to take you out again. You’ve taken the cure, so let’s see what’ll happen this time,
Lin Qiao patted on the snake’s head, which was right next to her, and said. However, once she mentioned taking the snake out again, it immediately moved meters away to create a distance from her.

What? Are you afraid? You’ll be fine. If you feel uncomfortable again, I’ll bring you back here immediately. Come here!
Seeing the snake move away from her within a blink, Lin Qiao waved at it and said.

Hiss…
Black stayed still and just let out its tongue toward her.
Lin Qiao looked at the snake speechlessly. So, she had to coax the snake into going out now, didn’t she? Was the snake in an unhappy mood?

Come on! Really, you’ll be fine. You’ve taken the cure already! You’ll be okay!
Like a child, Black grew afraid after suffering discomfort once. So, Lin Qiao had no choice but to coax it like coaxing a child.
Black looked at her with hesitation, but it had already lowered its head slightly.
Sensing the snake’s resolution begin staggering, Lin Qiao immediately nodded and said affirmatively,
Come on, this place is funny. None of us has been here before. Don’t you want to go outside and see what this place is like? It’ll be fine as long as your nose doesn’t make you feel uncomfortable, right? Come on! Bowwow is having such fun out there. Don’t you want to go out?

As she expected, Black moved its body slightly once she mentioned its friend Bowwow.
The snake did want very much to go out and have some fun. But earlier, the air outside made it feel extremely uncomfortable. So, it was normal for the snake to be a little scared at the moment.
As Lin Qiao was still trying to convince Black to go out with her, a figure suddenly flashed out of the woods and darted up to Lin Qiao, catching the hem of her clothes with a tentacle.

Awooooo!
The young tiger’s unhappy roars were heard from behind as well.
Lin Qiao spent a few seconds looking at the mushroom which had suddenly shown up by her side. By the time she turned to look at the tiger that was running over from behind, the tiger was only a few meters away from her.

You can’t go out! You are too weak! That place is very dangerous!
Looking at the young tiger which had rushed up to her and held one of her legs with its paws, Lin Qiao shook her head.
The little tiger was holding her leg with a pair of fluffy paws. How adorable!
Seeing Lin Qiao shake her head, the little tiger held her even tighter and rubbed its face against her knee as it let out a series of roars.
Lin Qiao could clearly feel how much the tiger wanted to go out. The little tiger really wanted to go out together with the mushroom and Black and play outside. Besides, once she brought out the other three, it would be left in the space all alone! That really made the little tiger unhappy.

No, no! You can’t go out!
Lin Qiao dropped her head and looked at the little tiger as she shook her head again.

Hrr!
As Lin Qiao refused to bring it out, the little tiger immediately relaxed the grip on her leg before turning and rushing into the woods. Soon, it disappeared from her sight.

Hey! It’s mad!
Lin Qiao sighed helplessly as she turned and said to the mushroom, which was standing by her side quietly. The mushroom gently swung its tentacles under its head.

Alright, so Black, are you going out?
Lin Qiao didn’t pay more attention to the little tiger but said to Black and then turned to the mushroom again.
The mushroom was a mutated plant, different from Black. She wondered if the mushroom could adapt to the underground energy or not. She wasn’t so worried though. Even if the underground environment did make the mushroom ill, she could simply ask the big cat to find her another black fruit.
She believed that there was more than one fruit like that. The mushroom could run really fast anyway. It should be able to run away from any kind of danger.
As the mushroom showed up, Black gave up resisting and finally wriggled to Lin Qiao, who brought the two outside. She showed up in the underground realm to see the big red cat only; no one else was there.
Seeing her show up together with the two, the big cat quickly stood up, in case the two harassed it at the sight of it like what the crazy dog did. Meanwhile, Lin Qiao carefully observed her two pets. Once out, the mushroom excitedly gave itself a tour in the area with its soft and bouncy tentacles swinging from side to side.
This was not what Lin Qiao had expected. She thought the mushroom would feel uncomfortable upon being exposed to the underground air. Clearly, she was wrong. She rolled her eyes and turned to look at Black. Black had alertly curled up its body and reared up its head, even expanding its neck and showing the pair of fake eyes on the back of its neck.

Relax…
Lin Qiao raised her head to look at Black’s face and comforted the highly vigilant snake.
Black maintained that state for about six seconds and then finally relaxed slightly. It hid the fake eyes on its neck and slowly turned its head from left to right. After spending a while carefully feeling its own breath, it realized that it was really not feeling suffocated like the last time, nor any there was any other discomfort. Only after that did the snake relax its body fully and started wriggling about in that area.

That cat found you that fruit. You need to thank it,
Lin Qiao suddenly pointed at the red cat and said to Black, who understood the words she said. Also, she was pointing straight at the cat. Of course, the snake understood her meaning.
As Lin Qiao pointed at the cat, the cat turned to look at the snake. The two enormous creatures looked at each other in silence.
Lin Qiao looked at Black and then at the big red cat. She spent three seconds staring at the two. As she was wondering if they would keep gawking at each other, she saw Black move slightly and nod at the big cat. The big cat responded to the snake by raising a paw and casually wiping its own face. It had probably accepted the snake’s gratitude.

They’re both so proud and aloof…
Lu Tianyi showed up beside Lin Qiao and said.

Em,
Lin Qiao turned to look at him and shrugged.
Lu Tianyi gave her a glance and suddenly turned to the direction which Xie Longyun and her people left,
What are you gonna do with those people? Are you gonna let them keep following us and trying to cause trouble?

Lu Tianyi really didn’t like people playing dirty tricks behind his back like that.
Lin Qiao cast a quick glance at that area and said,
We don’t have the time to do something to them especially. Exploring this place is our first priority. But, if she dares to make another attempt, I’ll find a way to make her pay.

Lu Tianyi looked at her and nodded. Then, he turned and saw a dark figure stealthily approaching the tail of the big red cat. The big cat didn’t change the expression on its face, but judging by the movement of its tail, it had obviously sensed the one sneakily coming at it.
