Chapter 2172: Kumu Mountain (2)
Shen Yanxiao became even more curious about the elemental spirits.
Kumu Mountain was bigger than Shen Yanxiao imagined. She walked for half a day, but only reached the hillside, and walking the whole morning made Shen Yanxiao somewhat tired.
She didn’t know what was going on with the soil in this mountain. It was obviously the same as anywhere else, but it always made people fall on their feet. It felt extremely sticky and greasy, as if the ground had suddenly sucked their feet. This made Shen Yanxiao, who was decently strong, feel like every step she took was extremely laborious.
“I think I need to take a break…” Shen Yanxiao muttered and quickly darted to a tree.
It was only half a day, but she already thought that Kumu Mountain was very strange.
Leaning against the tree trunk, Shen Yanxiao closed her eyes and rested.
Suddenly, the sound of water rushed to Shen Yanxiao’s ears. Along with that sound, Shen Yanxiao heard a childish cry.
Shen Yanxiao immediately opened her eyes and looked for the sound all around.
After running through the dense forest, a green lake appeared in front of Shen Yanxiao. In the middle of the clear lake, a little blue thing could be seen struggling desperately.
Shen Yanxiao jumped into the lake and swam fast towards the middle of the lake. After which, she wrapped the little fellow in the water into her arms and swam to the shore very quickly.
When she got ashore, Shen Yanxiao noticed that the little guy she had saved looked very bizarre.
It was a small ball with pinkish blue fur all over, and its furry body was soaked in the lake water, so that the blue fur was glued to the little guy’s body. Oddly enough, the little furball, which had no limbs, was round all over, and only a pair of big light blue eyes were staring at Shen Yanxiao smoothly as his little mouth issued a sound full of doubt.
“Bidiu?” The little furball blinked a few times as it faced Shen Yanxiao, and his clear eyes were filled with confusion.
It was the first time Shen Yanxiao had seen such a round creature from head to toe, and she dared to swear that she had never seen an animal more round than it, neither in her previous life nor in this one.
“This little guy, I’ve never seen something like it before. Xiu, is this a creature of the Storm Continent?” Shen Yanxiao poked the round body of the little furball with her finger. Then, she took out a clean cloak from the storage ring in one hand, and dried herself and the water droplets on the little furball.
After it was dried up, the little guy’s fur completely fluffed up. Originally, it was only the size of two fists, but after drying up, the furball became about the size of a human head!
“It isn’t.” Xiu quickly denied Shen Yanxiao’s guess.
“It isn’t?” Shen Yanxiao looked at the little fellow who she had cleaned up. As a lover of cute things, she had to say, this little guy was really cute!
Perhaps it liked the feeling when Shen Yanxiao wiped its fur; the little furball that had been staring at Shen Yanxiao rolled in her arms a bit. Then it squinted its eyes comfortably as its mouth kept making a soft sound.
“It’s lovely.” Shen Yanxiao smiled and scratched the body of the little furball; as a result, the little guy issued a more comfortable cry.
“I have never seen such a creature as well.” Xiu was also very confused about the origin of the little furball.
“You haven’t seen it before?” Shen Yanxiao was a little stupefied. But Xiu was a superior god who had lived for so many years. There actually were still living creatures he did not know of?
“Yes. But I can’t feel any power in this little guy. I don’t think it’s a dangerous creature.” Xiu had observed the little furball when Shen Yanxiao was in the water saving the lovely little fellow.
