Chapter 517: Chapter 518 Storm_1

"Strange monkeys?"

Feng Yuan looked at the monkeys with some astonishment. Apart from their distinctive fur colors, the monkeys had larger heads than normal and thick tails that nimbly coiled around branches to assist their leaping from one branch to another. Compared to other monkeys, these strange ones were shorter, and they seemed to have noticed the sudden appearance of the small wooden hut. They perched on the branches, one hand reaching into their mouths as they curiously observed this strange new thing.

"Mysterious Monkey (Mystic)

Common Level potential. Although it is a Mystic Series Spirit Beast, it can possess ultimate moves of other attributes due to environmental reasons. The color of the monkey’s fur indicates the additional attribute it possesses. Each Mysterious Monkey only has one additional attribute and will evolve into different forms depending on that attribute.

Note: While the Mysterious Monkeys have various attributes, their strength is not strong, and the overall strength of the species is weak. They generally prefer to stick together to ensure safety. They hold grudges, so when you encounter a Mysterious Monkey, please do not make any attack moves that could be misunderstood by them in order to avoid relentless pestering."

...

Looking at the information on the Mysterious Monkeys, Guo Huai remarked,

"A Spirit Beast that’s small-minded?"

Feng Yuan glanced dismissively at the monkeys and said,

"They only bully the weak but fear the strong. If you fought back hard, those creatures would definitely run far away. It’s just that normally no one would do that."

Guo Huai laughed but did not respond. Ordinary people indeed would usually not harm Spirit Beasts for no reason, but bad people always exist. At this moment, the Mysterious Monkeys seemed to decide that the wooden hut posed no threat. They chattered and jumped onto the railing. The rain-soaked railing did not affect them at all; their claws firmly grasped it as they waved their tails in a threatening manner towards Feng Yuan at the doorway.

Feng Yuan’s mouth curved slightly as he pressed down on Xiao Ji, who was discontentedly trying to wriggle out of the blanket, and lightly waved his long staff.

A few spikes grew from the walls and startled the monkeys, who squealed and brandished their teeth and claws angrily on the railing. One of the Mysterious Monkeys suddenly leaped up and flicked its tail, sending a golden blade of light slicing through and severing one of the spikes.

Seeing that monkey dancing triumphantly, Feng Yuan fixated on it with great interest and said,

"Gold attribute power, and it can even be projected outward. It seems they do have some talents after all."

"Just a shame they’re too weak."

At that moment, Mo Li approached with a puzzled look at the monkeys and asked,

"What’s going on with them?"

"Just a bunch of Naughty Ghosts looking to cause trouble," Feng Yuan replied.

Just as Feng Yuan was considering how to drive away the Mysterious Monkeys, the roar of the White Wolf Deity resonated. The monkeys were momentarily stunned, and in the next instant, they shrieked and darted into the bushes to vanish from sight. Some of the younger monkeys tripped over branches and tumbled to the ground, wailing miserably as they scurried away in a panic.

Watching the pathetic sight of the fleeing monkeys, Feng Yuan said somewhat speechlessly,

"It was just a roar from the White Wolf Deity. Is it really that serious..."

The spectral image of Agunas flicked its tail irritably and said,

"How can those little monkeys withstand a roar endowed with the dignity of the White Wolf Deity?"

"Tsk, you actually regard them like that. Don’t you think they’re pitiable?"

"Weak and always stirring up trouble; I don’t like them," the spectral image of Agunas replied disdainfully.

"You’re really heartless～"

With a hint of disgust, the spectral image of Agunas said,

"Fools who court death don’t deserve sympathy."

The Little Green Snake glared at the spectral image of Agunas, seemingly dissatisfied with its remarks. Feng Yuan sighed and said,

"Do you think being weak is what they want?"

"They just like to play pranks. There’s nothing about them that’s particularly annoying."

"They know they’re weak, yet..."

"Otherwise what else could they do? Play with cellphones or computers? Given their situation, no matter how much they practice fighting, it’s pointless. They might as well find some fun and be happy."

Guo Huai said with some confusion,

"Why is practicing fighting pointless no matter what? Doesn’t it enhance their combat strength?"

"That’s for battle practice with guidance. The situation with the strange monkeys is special. They have Mystic Series power, but they don’t know any Mystic Series ultimate moves. Instead, they can use offensive ultimate moves from other attributes, which usually come with inherited memories. There’s no room for improvement, nor is there a way to improve."

"Those additional attribute ultimate moves are like casting spells with hotkeys in a game; you have no idea how the moves are actually released."

"There’s nothing they can do. Although they are intelligent, they haven’t figured out how to find the most suitable training methods for themselves like humans have."

"Besides, their attributes are completely random. All the attributes, plus a few special forms, mean that even if someone evolves to a very high level, it’s hard to provide guidance to strange monkeys of other attributes."

The Agunas phantom swished its tail silently, while Little Green Snake looked sympathetically in the direction they had left, gently swishing its tail, lost in thought.

Feng Yuan gently caressed Xiao Ji, who was wriggling in his arms. For some reason, upon hearing the conversation, Xiao Ji buried its head into the blanket and rubbed against it.

The rain gradually grew heavier. Seeing those thick leaves shaking endlessly under the rain, Feng Yuan smiled slightly, picked up his staff, and waved it. Several sturdy vines grew from the ground and wound around the trunk, reaching upward. Seeing those vines firmly support the thick leaves, Feng Yuan nodded in satisfaction.

The light on the Star Ladybug’s back gradually dimmed, and after a while, it seemed to sense no danger, and the lights began to reappear.

As the rain kept pouring down harder, Feng Yuan had to stand up and close the door. Standing by the window watching the downpour, Feng Yuan cheerfully said,

"We are ready to set out now~"

The Agunas phantom said, swishing its tail,

"If you’re planning to travel by night."

"Eh? Is it almost night already?"

Feng Yuan, somewhat surprised, watched as Mo Ling and Yao Yin came by. Hearing Feng Yuan’s words, they glanced outside and said,

"If it gets dark, we might as well stay another night; there’s no danger for the time being, right?"

"True, Yimu Qingling and Drudgeon have basically driven away all those Great Yan soldiers around here. As for the tribespeople..."

"Honestly, after this incident, I’m skeptical whether they’re still willing to submit to Great Yan."

Mo Ling sighed helplessly and said,

"Those proud nobles..." Mo Ling couldn’t understand the nobles’ thinking. Unlike Mo Li, she hadn’t grown up in the Royal Palace. Seeing things from a commoner’s perspective, she didn’t quite understand the point of the Great Yan nobles pressuring the tribes.

Yao Yin quietly combed Mo Ling’s long hair and whispered something. To her, such matters weren’t surprising. In the Xingluo Realm, the disparity between humans and gods was even more exaggerated and outrageous. Even if she didn’t want to understand, she would still encounter such annoying issues.

The torrential rain blurred the view. The glimmer of stars in the woods grew fuzzy in the storm. Feng Yuan wasn’t sure if they had hidden their starlight or if it was simply obscured by the heavy rain. After watching for a while and finding it uninteresting, he picked up Xiao Ji, looked at Yao Yin, and asked,

"Want to play cards?"

"Do you think that’s appropriate?"

Yao Yin glanced at Feng Yuan with annoyance, meanwhile, Mo Li and Hua Yiyou were discussing something in the room. Guo Huai seemed uninterested in Feng Yuan’s cards, and since there were only three of them in total, Feng Yuan sighed and wandered back to his room.

As soon as Feng Yuan entered the room, the little messenger birds chirped and hopped around on the windowsill before taking flight. Watching the birds flit around him, Feng Yuan smiled and asked,

"What’s the matter? Are you hungry?"

The little messenger birds chirped merrily, unclear about what they were so happy about. Feng Yuan took out some fruit and tossed it to the birds, which caught them and lined up neatly on the windowsill, happily eating the fruit. Watching them, Feng Yuan looked at Xiao Ji in his arms and asked,

"Do you want some?"

Xiao Ji turned its head away and chirped disdainfully a few times. It had tasted those fruits before and found them not to its liking. After rubbing Xiao Ji vigorously, Feng Yuan laughed and lay down on the bed.
