Let’s Squander A Billion First!

Chapter 993: Chapter 993: Prehistoric Overlord (21)

Tu Yan couldn’t quite understand, how could a Phoenix be afraid of the cold.

After all, the Phoenix had fire attributes, it was impossible for her to be cold when others might be.

But he obediently transformed back into his original form, letting Chuzheng hold him.

Chuzheng hugged the soft fur, feeling so blissful she could burst.

This is the kind of treatment a winner in life should have!

What kind of beggar life was I living before?

So soft, so soft...

Stay calm, stay calm.

Chuzheng tightened her expression, her palm haphazardly exploring Tu Yan’s body.

”Little Phoenix.” Tu Yan pressed her with his paw, warning in a low voice, ”Don’t touch randomly.”

”Oh.”

Chuzheng stopped moving.

When Tu Yan let her go, Chuzheng immediately started touching again.

Tu Yan stopped her twice. Chuzheng agreed readily each time, but as soon as he released her, she began again.

Tu Yan had no choice but to hold onto her, awkwardly saying, ”Don’t touch lower.”

Chuzheng moved upward, touching the fur on his neck.

Tu Yan felt that Chuzheng seemed different from usual; her face was still cold and emotionless, yet he sensed some kind of joy emanating from her.

Chuzheng stroked for a while, feeling a bit sleepy.

However, Tu Yan wasn’t sleepy at all.

He looked at the girl lying on top of him, feeling somewhat conflicted.

-

”Little Phoenix?”

Chuzheng covered her ears with her hands, and beneath her, it was still soft and fluffy, so she rubbed against it again.

Tu Yan’s body stiffened slightly, the place she rubbed...

Tu Yan wanted to put Chuzheng down, but she suddenly hugged him tightly: ”Mine!!” And her hand slowly kept stroking.

Tu Yan could no longer bear it and transformed back.

The soft cushion disappeared, and Chuzheng suddenly opened her eyes, staring at Tu Yan’s beautiful face.

Chuzheng glanced around, noticing that it was daylight without knowing when it happened.

She touched her ear, calmly got off Tu Yan, as if she hadn’t been the person just now.

Tu Yan: ”...”

Chuzheng got him some fruits for breakfast, and after eating they continued on their way.

This time, Chuzheng walked behind, her eyes occasionally falling on him.

Tu Yan felt a sharp gaze on his back.

He had a feeling that the Little Phoenix behind was up to something.

In front of them was Desperate Ridge, and Tu Yan’s heart gradually became alert.

Most of the Fierce Beasts at Desperate Ridge had committed wrongdoings in the Prehistoric Era, being pursued until they had no choice but to turn to Desperate Ridge, behaving evilly.

”Can’t we fly over?”

Why must we walk there?

I can fly!

”No.” Tu Yan shook his head, ”You can’t fly over Desperate Ridge.” Not even Divine Beasts can.

”Are the beasts here that powerful?” They can even control the sky.

”...No, it’s said to have formed naturally.” Tu Yan’s voice was low, ”But the Fierce Beasts at Desperate Ridge have benefited from it.”

There are many magical places in the Prehistoric Era.

This is nothing special.

But being utilized by the beasts, that’s different...

If we can’t fly, we can’t fly.

Then we’ll walk across.

”Stop!”

As soon as Chuzheng and Tu Yan stepped into the Desperate Ridge boundary, a shout rang out.

A few men wearing animal skins lazily emerged from the forest beside them.

They eyed Chuzheng with brazen and bold eyes, occasionally letting out malicious laughter, ”What are you doing?”

Tu Yan moved forward, shielding Chuzheng, ”Just passing through.”

”You can pass through, but...” One of them rubbed his chin, looking lecherously behind Tu Yan, ”She has to stay, you can go.”

Desperate Ridge not only robs things but also snatches beasts.

Especially the beautiful ones.

Clearly, they had their eyes on Chuzheng now.

”Why should I stay?” Chuzheng popped her head out from behind Tu Yan, seriously asking, ”To kill you?”

”Hahaha...”

The bunch on the opposite side seemed to hear a good joke.

”Kill us, do you know where this is? Just you trying to kill us, hahahaha...”

”How about me?” Tu Yan half-closed his eyes, a dangerous glint swirling within.

”You? What are you...?” That beast’s voice suddenly stopped, its hands reaching for its own throat as if being strangled.

Tu Yan waved his hand, and that beast flew to the side, crashed into a tree, and slid to the ground.

The man’s eyes were filled with killing intent: ”Tu Yan.”

The faces of the beasts opposite suddenly changed.

”Go... go, quick go.”

None of the beasts paid any heed to their fallen companion, immediately fleeing into the forest.

Tu Yan steadied the chaotic breath within his body, turned to Chuzheng, ”Let’s get through quickly, or they’ll call more beasts.”

-

Whether it was Tu Yan’s crow’s mouth or he was just familiar with the pattern here.

They hadn’t gone far when they were blocked by a group of beasts.

Some of the beasts were in human form, others in their true forms, gradually emerging from the forest, surrounding them.

”Tu Yan, you actually dare to appear here.”

A deep voice came from within, a figure swiftly flew over, and the surrounding Fierce Beasts all lowered their heads in respect, ”King.”

This was the current King of Desperate Ridge, tall and quite handsome, but his slanted eyebrows made him look fierce.

King of Desperate Ridge glared viciously at Tu Yan, ”Last time you killed so many beasts from Desperate Ridge, and now you dare to show up, Tu Yan, do you really think you can dominate the Prehistoric Era?”

”You blocked my way first.” Tu Yan’s expression didn’t change.

”Desperate Ridge is my territory, if you want to pass through, you have to follow the rules!” King of Desperate Ridge’s momentum surged, his domineering pressure sweeping through.

”Following my rules is also a rule.” Tu Yan reached out to protect Chuzheng behind him, not moving a bit under the assault.

”Hahahaha...”

King of Desperate Ridge laughed furiously.

”Tu Yan, you’re still so arrogant, I heard... you’re injured.”

As he spoke, King of Desperate Ridge’s tone suddenly dropped significantly.

”...”

The news of Tu Yan being injured was spreading throughout the Prehistoric Era.

Although he was not injured, his strength was indeed greatly reduced.

Facing off against these fugitive beasts of Desperate Ridge, he wasn’t fully confident either.

”Fighting and killing is no way to behave.” Chuzheng pulled Tu Yan, stepping out directly, looking at King of Desperate Ridge with a cold tone, ”Let’s discuss a deal.”

The girl wore a scarlet dress, her features delicate and beautiful, even without expression, she exuded a blooming allure, totally different from the beasts in the Prehistoric Era.

The dappled light in the forest fell on her, casting shadows, her every move carrying the noble elegance of a Divine Beast, not to be violated.

King of Desperate Ridge narrowed his eyes, ”You’re a Phoenix?”

”You know me?”

”Nobody in the Prehistoric Era hasn’t heard of you.” King of Desperate Ridge’s smile was somewhat eerie and greedy, ”But, now someone wants you dead.”

Chuzheng fell silent.

At this moment, wanting her dead... it was probably that bastard, Yao Rao.

No emotions showed on Chuzheng’s face, ”You can listen to my conditions for the deal before deciding.”

King of Desperate Ridge stared at Chuzheng for a while, then looked at Tu Yan, calculating in his mind, ”Alright, let’s hear it.”
