785 Chapter 785 “Got a Sphinx in Return“
That girl who stole her cactus wasn’t a simple one. She could know that her weakness was a riddle and used that to steal the cactus right in front of her eyes! Just who is that girl?! So hateful!
"Huh?? Someone stole the cactus from you? How is that possible?! You are this strong! No one can possibly steal it from you," Li Shi Ying had guessed this, but hearing it from the sphinx herself, she couldn’t help but gasp in surprise. How could a mighty sphinx like this one, lose her treasure to someone else??
"The thief knows my weakness, even though I’m sure that no one knows my weakness! She’s so cunning. She used my weakness thus I was powerless," The sphinx cursed whoever stole the cactus, as the aura around her changed. No wonder the sphinx looked so mad when they first met her. Someone actually knew her weakness and used it against her!
"Ugh...I really need the cactus...did you see this thief’s face?" Li Shi Ying rubbed her temple as she asked the sphinx without fear for the second time. Somehow she didn’t get afraid of this beast anymore knowing that she is Di Yu’s sibling. Her mind was focused on the cactus right now.
She really needed the cactus! If she lost the cactus now...all her efforts up until now to gather the herb would end up in vain.
"I saw her face as clear as the day. She’s definitely a peerless beauty so you will find her so easily if you go to the town or country near this land. I bet she visited the nearest country since she can’t travel that far with the cactus in her hand"
The sphinx tightened her claw on the sand below her feet, making the part of the land surrounding her, sink for a few meters. It shows how mad the sphinx was because of the thief.
"Peerless beauty..." Li Shi Ying immediately got a bad feeling when she heard that the thief was a peerless beauty. She couldn’t think of anyone beautiful enough to be acknowledged by the sphinx other than that girl.
The female lead, Meng Yue Ming!
She just remembered that somehow Meng Yue Ming didn’t die. Really a cockroach. Now that girl stole what she needed...she had to get it back no matter what, as well as trying to kill this thorn again. It’s either kill or be killed!
"I see thanks for the answer. Can you let us go now? We need to get the cactus. I promise I’ll only take the liquid inside and will return the cactus to you," Li Shi Ying cupped her palm together and slightly bowed to the sphinx, expressing her thoughts.
Actually, she had another wish, which was to make the sphinx apart of the collection of hers. This great beauty would be a perfect match for Ge Lifen, but a pity she wasn’t that bold to make such a legendary being into her contracted beast.
It’s another story if the sphinx was the one volunteering though.
"I will let you guys out since you are my brother’s master but I have one selfish request to make is it fine with you?" The sphinx looked at Li Shi Ying with inquiring eyes and after saying that, she flashed a smile. A beautiful one blinding enough to make Li Shi Ying had to cover her eyes with her palm.
"What request it is? As long I can do it I will help you," Li Shi Ying tilted her head in confusion when she heard what the sphinx had said. What can a mere human like her do to help this majestic being? It’s like asking an ant to help a human!
"I want to make a contract with you so I can be with my brother," The sphinx casually threw out a bomb, startling Li Shi Ying, Long Ao Zhen and even Di Yu out of the blue.
....what?? What did she say?! She wanted to make a contract with her? Like...contracting? Really a contracted sacred beast? Hold on. What happened?! Is this another prank??
"I..." Li Shi Ying was so shocked that she almost fell on the spot, if not for Long Ao Zhen holding her hand tight. She indeed would be very glad to contract this sphinx, but for the sphinx, herself to offer the contract...is this a dream?
"I’m sure you must be shocked, but I see that you can contract a lot of beasts, unlike other humans. Not only that, but my brother is also in your care and he looks great. I just want to spend my time with him, now that I found him. Can you grant my request? I’ll make sure to bring benefit to you"
The sphinx lowered her head a little as if begging Li Shi Ying to take her. It’s indeed a very troublesome thing to make a contract with a sacred beast like a sphinx since Li Shi Ying might be targeted by greedy cultivators or something, but the sphinx didn’t mind it.
She believed with Long Ao Zhen as a dragon being beside Li Shi Ying to protect her and with her own strength as well, Li Shi Ying would be completely safe. The girl was also a good master in her eyes.
"Sure I’ll be glad to have you as my contracted beast but are you sure? I mean...I thought beasts hate humans?" Li Shi Ying couldn’t help but shriek in her heart due to her good luck. Even though she lost the cactus because of that b*tch Meng Yue Ming, but for now, she got a sphinx in return!
