Chapter 646: The Peasant Girl’s Splendid Manor
Chapter 646: Reckless Response (3)
Snow ball had said that unless absolutely necessary, one must not harbor murderous thoughts or actually kill others. Bloodshed could affect one's fortune, and once fortune changes, unpredictable consequences might ensue. Cause and effect are indeed real!
Mo Yan rolled around on her large bed, unable to come up with a solution. Frustrated, she entered her space, looking at the endless greenery and the five beasts frolicking around, gradually relaxing her mood.
Whatever, she thought. Let’s deal with problems as they come. There’s no point in overthinking when she doesn’t even know what Chen Ji might do next. If he dared to have malicious thoughts, she could have the red python summon a group of minions to bury his mansion, and maybe even give him a taste of paralysis, a crooked mouth, and a lifetime of lying in bed, unable to speak clearly. Let’s see if he still dared to harbor evil thoughts then.
The five beasts soon noticed Mo Yan and dashed towards her at a speed too fast for the naked eye, leaving only afterimages.
Just as they were about to pounce on Mo Yan, they seemed to hit an invisible barrier a foot away from her, their five big heads making a collective thud. Due to the inertia, their large bodies tumbled to the ground.
"Snow ball, you're being naughty again!" Mo Yan reached out and touched the barrier, confirming it was there. She then spoke to Snow ball, who was lazily flying over.
Unfazed by her scolding, Snow ball snorted indignantly and said, "I've been training them for so many days, yet they still crash into the barrier. It only shows how dumb they are. How can you blame me for that?"
By this time, the five beasts had picked themselves up from the ground. Hearing Snow ball's words, their unique eyes were filled with defiance. How could they react in time with such a powerful barrier set so close without warning?
Snow ball could easily read their thoughts and was genuinely angry this time. "You five idiots! I’ve wasted my spiritual power, tirelessly clearing your meridians and training your abilities. Yet, you dare blame me for your slowness? Hmph, if you can’t pass my test in ten days, I’ll refine you into fertilizer for the fields to avoid disgracing me."
Being reprimanded in front of Mo Yan, the five beasts felt deeply ashamed, wishing they could find a hole to hide in. Snow ball's mockery and threats were quite effective, making the beasts, whose strength had recently surged, humbly retract their proud tails.
Mo Yan had seen this teacher-student dynamic many times, yet it always felt fresh. The visual contrast of the huge beasts cowering before the palm-sized Snow ball was amusing enough to entertain her for a while.
Mo Yan knew that despite Snow ball's disdainful attitude and penchant for bullying the beasts, it liked them. She couldn’t stay in the space all day to keep it company, so the beasts were a bright and warm presence in Snow ball’s lonely and long life, bringing it much joy.
Seeing Mo Yan laughing heartily, Snow ball's tension eased. Observing everything from outside the space, it was genuinely worried that Mo Yan might rashly order the red python to gather minions against Chen Ji. That would be a real headache.
Once the master started down that path, it might be hard to stop if similar situations arose in the future.
