Chapter 274: Beauty Like a Flower (Part Eleven)
Seeing that he was about to hit the annoying child, Snake Taoist’s eyes gleamed with a vicious and evil light, his scarlet tongue darted out, disgustingly stirring the air, and he let out excited hisses.
"Be careful, Liu Sheng Jie!"
"Liu Sheng Jie..."
Jiang Caibin and Xiaoxiao exclaimed when they saw the situation.
What’s going on?
Just now, Liu Sheng Jie seemed to have the upper hand, but how did the situation suddenly take such a drastic turn?
Liu Sheng, however, was not afraid; several Little Tentacles emerged from beneath her, tossing her high into the air, and with a twist of her waist, she dodged Snake Taoist’s attack.
Then, the Little Tentacles pushed her from behind, propelling her towards Snake Taoist, while her long sword pointed precisely at Snake Taoist's vital point.
With the World, prediction, position, and angle were always Liu Sheng’s strengths.
With his weak point about to be pierced, Snake Taoist hastily retreated.
Unexpectedly, he only took one step back, but fell into layers of tentacles that enveloped him.
The tentacles, which had bloomed like a lotus, now slowly closed, enclosing Snake Taoist within them.
A sacred aura erupted, scalding Snake Taoist, who was inside the "pistil," causing his skin to tear and flesh to rupture as he screamed repeatedly.
"The smell of roasted snake..."
"I’m hungry."
"Are you devils?!"
"By the way, this New Human isn't that great."
"Yeah... I thought he was a strong one, but he's just a weakling."
According to Liu Sheng, the obvious choice was to kill him.
But then she suddenly remembered Xiaoxiao and the so-called "choice."
Considering the show's effect, she turned her head to look at Xiaoxiao, who was filled with both fear and excitement.
"How about it? How will you choose?"
"Do you want to leave with him?"
Liu Sheng shook a tentacle, revealing Snake Taoist inside, his face and robe charred black, already unconscious.
With a shake, his head lolled to one side, and dry, charred, scale-like skin flaked off.
Hiss, how did he end up like this?
This is truly a bit embarrassing; how can she even make a choice now?
Xiaoxiao wasn't a fool.
She wanted to become stronger, so naturally, she would follow the strong.
"I'm not leaving, I want to follow Big Sister," Xiaoxiao said without hesitation.
Liu Sheng nodded; anyway, it sounded like even the show production team had already decided, so her asking was just a formality.
Listening intently, Liu Sheng could vaguely hear some chaotic cheers in the background noise.
"Do you hear that?" Liu Sheng asked.
Jiang Caibin was quite confused by the current situation: "Hear what?"
At this moment, he had only one thought: he must follow Liu Sheng Jie closely from now on and never harbor any disloyal thoughts.
Otherwise...
He looked at the Taoist, who was unbearable to behold, and gasped.
Xiaoxiao shook her head, even more bewildered.
"In my world, there is only Liu Sheng Jie's voice."
"...Cheesy," Liu Sheng said, somewhat speechless.
"Only you can hear it," the World prompted.
"Why?"
"It's a characteristic of high dimension analysis, I'm not sure either."
"There are things even you are unsure about?"
"Yes, because I am rigorous, I admit I am unsure."
At this moment, Liu Sheng held Snake Taoist in her tentacles, feeling awkward about whether to release him or keep holding him.
Fortunately, the show production team had already agreed to let Snake Taoist make a reasonable exit, so they naturally had to do something.
Thus, Liu Sheng felt Snake Taoist in her hand twitch a few times like a puppet on strings, then he became incredibly slippery and actually slipped out of the tentacles.
Of course, there was also her intentional letting go.
Then his feet slipped, and he was propped on the ground by that invisible force; Liu Sheng heard a crisp sound of bones breaking and secretly gasped.
"Thirty years east of the river, thirty years west of the river! You just wait!"
Someone inexplicably pinched their voice and recited a line, even pulling Snake Taoist's mouth to match the lip-sync.
But this voice... wasn't at all like his.
It was truly clumsy.
Without even a classic "I'll be back" line, Snake Taoist hopped away, his arms and legs moving in sync, stumbling along.
Everyone in the temple watched dumbfounded, silently observing Snake Taoist's receding figure.
Liu Sheng, the only one capable of stopping him, did not, which Jiang Caibin found very puzzling.
"Liu Sheng Jie, this person is so strange, his words are ambiguous. Are you just going to let him go like that?"
Jiang Caibin wasn't stupid; although he hadn't heard the production team's conversation like Liu Sheng, he also sensed that something was hidden.
"I always feel like there's a lot to uncover behind him," Jiang Caibin said, still feeling unwilling.
"Of course, I think so too."
Liu Sheng curved a faint smile.
"That's why I'm letting him go."
...
"Snake Taoist" dragged his limp body, not knowing how far he had gone.
Due to the imprecise, or intentionally imprecise, control of the force, his body bumped everywhere, sustaining countless internal and external injuries, and he didn't know how many bones were broken.
No choice, first get him onto the spaceship.
You can't let him stay on this ancient planet full of Mortals.
Otherwise, something big could happen if you're not careful!
Previously, a certain film crew also went to a low-dimension ancient planet for filming, and they didn't pay attention; one person deliberately didn't follow the crew onto the ship and secretly stayed on that planet.
That person was one of the top hundred masters in the Empire; he was cast because of his handsome appearance and exceptional skill, capable of handling grand scenes.
However, when a person possesses power far exceeding that of this realm and harbors evil intentions, the consequences are unimaginable.
As a result, the entire planet's lower-level humans were slaughtered, and the whole world was stained with blood.
When this incident occurred, the entire Star Network condemned it, and it also drew severe criticism from the Interstellar Tribunal, along with fines amounting to billions.
This directly led to the entire production team going bankrupt and disbanding, and the investors behind it suffered heavy losses.
Since then, the Federal Empire issued new regulations.
"【The issuance of visas for low-dimension worlds requires an assessment of the applicant's abilities. Unless for the purpose of developing New World, the applicant's abilities must not significantly exceed the average ability level of the destination's organisms.】"
Therefore, Snake Taoist, who looked intimidating but had limited strength, perfectly met the requirements.
It's just that his limited strength turned out to be truly limited; he was so easily defeated by a local child and reduced to such a miserable state.
It truly brought shame to the New Human!
The departing spaceship was hidden in a valley, surrounded by dense forests that perfectly concealed the fluid-shaped, metallic-shelled small spacecraft.
The hatch opened, and "Snake Taoist" was thrown inside.
Only one person was waiting inside the spaceship.
"Seriously, what a hassle."
"I even have to send him off, and then I have to come back again, what a bother!"
"Forget it, working for money, there's always trouble."
"Making money is important, making money is important."
Listening to this rambling self-comfort, it was indeed that obsequious worker.
He had pale blue skin all over, slender limbs, and was as thin as a stick.
To be precise, he should be a stick insect.
At this moment, his face was full of impatience, and he was manipulating something in the air with his hands.
As he moved, Snake Taoist’s body was thrown onto a seat, and a seatbelt was thoughtfully buckled, though not entirely so, as Snake Taoist’s body was twisted like a pretzel.
"Anyway, he's pretty much like a snake, so twisting is fine," he muttered softly.
As for the bumps and bruises along the way, New Humans have strong recovery abilities, so he'll be perfectly fine by the time he reaches the main star.
Perfect!
He nodded, then entered the command room.
Soon, the spaceship started.
It ascended into the clear sky, exited the atmosphere, and entered the vast starry sea.
Navigating to the nearest dimension jump orbit.
Jump completed, ascension successful.
Autopilot activated, flying towards the Star-Ring Empire.
