Le charme d'une femme puissante se répand à travers le monde

Chapitre 93

Something warm and wet brushed against my hand and face. I was so startled that I forgot to cry and opened my eyes, staring blankly as the monster stretched out its tongue and licked my face three times.

"Eat me if you want, kill me if you want, why are you licking me?!" I said angrily, wiping my face with my sleeve. I think I must have gone mad, actually talking to this monster and yelling at it at this time, I'm practically asking for death.

Instead of swatting me to death with its claws, it withdrew its paw from my belly and suddenly, like a docile and obedient schoolchild, lifted both paws into the air, straightened up, and sat down beside me, its golden eyes staring at me, but without the initial ferocity.

I was stunned. I scrambled to my feet, moved back about ten meters, and sat down. Looking at the enormous, nouveau riche man in front of me, gleaming with gold, I asked in a strange voice, "You can understand me?"

The big guy sat there, looking at me. His eyes seemed to understand what I was saying, but he didn't give me any reaction.

"Handsome, dashing, noble Holy Spirit baby, please let me out of there, okay?" I pointed at the door and said with a fawning smile.

It suddenly shook its head, making the long golden fur on its head and neck fly up, then stopped, its golden eyes looking at me with unusual intensity.

Oh my god, does that mean they disagree?

"Holy Spirit Baby, are you bored and want someone to keep you company?" Is this big guy so lonely that he doesn't want to let someone out now that he finally sees someone come in?

It shook its head again, this time with an even greater amplitude, making its golden fur on its upper body incredibly eye-catching.

"So what exactly do you want?" I was furious and suddenly stood up, pointing at it and asking loudly.

555, it seems that once the danger was gone, I reverted to my true nature, a typical bully who preys on the weak and fears the strong. The big guy also got up with me, and in two steps he rushed in front of me, startling me so much that I stumbled and almost fell to the ground. I managed to steady myself and quickly patted my chest with my left hand to calm my nerves, but the big guy suddenly stretched out a claw, put it on my shoulder, and brought its head close to my chest, opening its mouth to bite my hand.

"Ah!" I screamed loudly. Six-fingered violin demon, no, no, if my fingers are bitten off, it's less, not more. I'll be a nine-fingered bride! I'm crying, it hurts!

Pain? It doesn't seem to hurt as much as I expected. I suddenly opened my eyes. That big thing didn't bite my hand at all; it just... just bit my shirt. Damn it! That pervert! I slapped it, and it tilted its head. With a "rip," my shirt was torn open.

This is intolerable! I screamed and, with a burst of strength I don't know where it came from, pushed the monster away. Then, with my eyes closed, I sprinted towards the south gate at top speed.

Ouch! I slammed into something warm with a dull thud, feeling like my face and mouth were covered in hair. Oh no! Heaven is against me! I hadn't even run ten steps before that huge thing caught me. Am I really going to die here?

Drunken Moon City

Something warm and damp swept across my face again. I quickly wiped my face with my sleeve, and whether from fright or anger, I cried and shouted at the monster, "Eat me if you want, kill me if you want, why are you licking me again and again!"

The monster remained silent and motionless, still standing in front of me. I simply plopped down on the ground and burst into tears. Tell me, which transmigrated woman has such a terrible fate as me? Running back and forth between countries, I was almost assassinated the time before last, almost drugged to death the time before last, and this time it's even more bizarre—99% chance I'll die at the hands of an animal. How can I bear this? How can I accept this?

I cried so hard I almost cried myself to death. The monster licked me again with its tongue. I glared at it angrily through my tears, but suddenly I saw the monster stretch out its left paw and raise it in front of me. A necklace was hanging from the paw. The chain was broken, and the monster's paw was gripping the two ends of the broken chain, while the pendant was hanging down.

The pendant was a small, gold-colored lock, and the chain was a very ordinary red silk cord. The chain was mine; strictly speaking, it should have been given to me by Xiaobai. Because that day, when I was traveling with Zhang De, I inadvertently checked my pocket and found this small lock. Thinking about it carefully, I didn't have this on me when I went to the victory banquet at the Dragon Radiance Palace. Later, Xiaobai kidnapped me and handed me over to Zhang De. At that time, I was already conscious, and Zhang De didn't give me anything. Therefore, this small lock must have been placed on me by Xiaobai.

So, when he said he had something for me in the palace, could this be it? Was Xiaobai not lying to me? His saying he had something to give me wasn't an excuse, but the truth? But why did Xiaobai kidnap me, and what use is this thing?

I tentatively reached out, my hand trembling slightly, to take the necklace, my heart pounding like a drum. The monster looked at me, its eyes surprisingly gentle. Seeing me reach out, it actually extended its claws above my hand, then released them. I opened my palm, and the small lock with the red silk cord lay in my hand, the red and gold intertwined, giving me a vague sense of ultimate brilliance.

I seemed to understand something. Just now, when I was lying on the ground, crying and cursing the fox, something cool slid across my neck. It must have been the small pendant that was hanging there that had slipped down to my neck. Then this big guy suddenly obediently retracted his claws and sat down in front of me. I sat up as well, and the pendant slid back to my chest. So when I yelled at it, the monster suddenly pounced and tore my clothes in the front with its claws.

What it actually wanted wasn't my clothes, nor my life, but the little pendant on my chest.

But what connection does this thing that Xiaobai gave me have with the Holy Spirit of the Kingdom of Xiuruo?

I hung the small pendant back around my neck and casually tied the red string in a knot at the back of my neck. The sacred beast opposite me watched my every move docilely. I tentatively reached out a finger and lightly touched the big guy's long golden fur, and there was no adverse reaction. I then lightly poked the big guy with my finger, and its golden eyes looked at me without any annoyance. I trembled slightly as I reached out and gently stroked the big guy's back. It shook its head, and a few strands of its long golden fur brushed against my face, making me sneeze.

"Holy Spirit Baby, I have something to do right now. Can I come and play with you again tomorrow?" Having roughly guessed the relationship between the little pendant and the golden-haired monster, and after seeing its behavior just now, I felt much more at ease and walked out while saying this.

It let out a low growl and suddenly darted in front of me, so fast that I almost bumped into it again.

"I really have something to do right now, and there are people waiting for me outside. Otherwise, I would come and play with you not only tomorrow, but the day after tomorrow, and even the whole day after that?"

I patted my chest, then patted the big guy's head, before walking around it and heading towards the south gate. It didn't make a sound, just followed me closely. When I reached the gate, I found it was the same as the one I'd come through—I couldn't push or pull it. The door was made of some unknown material; I kicked it, but it didn't budge, and instead, my foot hurt. I had no choice but to pound on the door while yelling, "Open the door!"

It took a while before I heard a "click," as if the lock had loosened. I looked at my hands, which were already a little red and swollen, stepped back, and watched as the door was pushed open a little. I turned around and waved at the big thing, carefully putting back the clothes that it had torn in front of my chest and protecting them, before walking outside.

I had barely reached the entrance when I stopped in my tracks. Good heavens, this is quite a spectacle! Why are there so many people at the south gate, and why does everyone seem to be standing there for something to do with me? Wasn't it just an old man? Seeing how well-dressed they all are, and then looking at my own disheveled state, I felt so embarrassed!

A golden shadow suddenly darted in front of me, followed by a loud crash behind me. I instinctively turned around, relieved to see that the door had collapsed, but it had only slammed against the wall. Relieved, I turned back to find chaos in front of me. The large figure stood before me, seemingly protecting me, while the guards, wanting to rush forward but hesitant, formed a semi-encirclement. The old man approached us, but was stopped after being bowed and spoken to by Old Man Yun. Old Man Yun then stepped in for him, but didn't cross the guards' line, stopping there. The remaining princes and princesses all looked quite startled.

“Holy Spirit Baby, go back quickly, what are you doing out here?” I hurriedly tugged at the big guy’s shiny golden fur and asked, somewhat puzzled.

That big guy ignored me, half-bent over, and roared at the people in front of him. The sound and the momentum were quite astonishing.

The situation suddenly changed again. Instead of surrounding us, the guards suddenly stood in front of the old man, their movements incredibly swift.

"Moon, how could you let the Holy Spirit Beast come out with you?" Old Man Yun stood opposite us, his face sour, and reprimanded us in a deep voice.

"Damn it, it wasn't me who made this thing come out! Old man Yun, are you blind? Didn't you see that it was your so-called Holy Spirit Beast that jumped out from behind me?" I walked up to the thing, pouting, and said, "Aren't you going to go back inside?"

Its golden eyes looked at me, then it suddenly crouched down, lowered its head, and growled a few times, then flicked its long golden fur, making it fly. Seeing it like this, I suddenly felt a little sorry for it. It seemed to have rushed out to protect me. I was about to crouch down and comfort it when the old man's voice came from afar.

"Girl, you can communicate with the Holy Spirit Beast?"

I turned around and looked at the old man approaching, and the crowd following closely behind him. I said with some reservation, "It seems like we can communicate a little."

The old man smiled at me, nodding seemingly approvingly and happily, but a glint of cunning flashed in his eyes. I jolted, stunned. Wasn't it the Holy Spirit Beast? Hadn't it communicated with these people before? But why had I been able to communicate with it from the beginning? Was it also because of Little Golden Lock?

“Girl, since you can communicate with the Holy Spirit Beast, and it is willing to step out of this house for you, you are the most noble princess of my Xiuruo Kingdom.”

The old man's smile grew even more amiable, but upon hearing this, I couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. Princess? Are you kidding me? She's your granddaughter's generation, and you're bestowing upon me the title of princess? Does that mean I should call this old man Yun my father or my brother? I'm so embarrassed.

"Grandpa...Grandpa..." I stammered, trying to say something, but my tongue circled twice before Old Man Yun glared at me, and I suddenly couldn't continue.

"Girl, go wash up and change your clothes first. Wait for the Emperor's decree. Go on." He said with a smile, and even instructed someone to serve you carefully. He also said to fetch some clothes. Judging from the expressions of the people around me, it seemed that I had gotten into trouble again.
