When Beauty Meets Beasts Chapter 192 - She Wanted To Protect Them!

Chapter 192: She Wanted To Protect Them!

The daffodil flew into the cave.

As soon as she landed, Huanhuan immediately got up and scrambled out of the cave.

At this moment, many bubbles suddenly emerged from the underground lake behind her. It was as if something huge was about to emerge from the bottom of the lake. The entire underground cave began to shake.

Huanhuan was so frightened that she stopped and turned around.

A sharp dark green head emerged from the water.

It was the pangolin!

When his entire head popped out, he stopped moving.

He said, “The place is so narrow. I think I’m stuck.”

As soon as she saw him, she was overjoyed as if she had seen her savior. She immediately spread her leaves and ran toward him, shouting, “Mr. Chang Gu!”

The pangolin lowered its head with difficulty and saw the little white flower by the lake. “The demons actually sent a talking little white flower to pick me up. It’s really surprising.”

“I’m Huanhuan! I became like this after eating a lotus seed!”

The pangolin was slightly stunned. “So it’s you.”

Huanhuan quickly said, “They’ve caught Sang Ye. Can you help save him?”

“I’d like to help, but I’m stuck. You have to find a way to pull me out.”

Huanhuan looked down at her tender leaves that would break if she tugged them with force, then looked up at the huge pangolin. She was very speechless. “Can’t you transform into human form?”

The pangolin was strangely silent for a moment. “Oh.”

He had almost forgotten that he could become human again.

The pangolin transformed into a handsome man with short dark green hair. He quickly went ash.o.r.e.

To Huanhuan’s surprise, Bai Di, Shuang Yun, and Xue Ling were behind him!

They were not good at swimming. Fortunately, the pangolin had opened the way for them and blocked the rapid current. As long as the three of them followed closely behind the pangolin, they could arrive at their destination safely although it was a dangerous journey.

Bai Di and Shuang Yun climbed ash.o.r.e. Xue Ling was the last to go ash.o.r.e.

As they had to go into the water, the three of them were naked.

Xue Ling had never been in the water before. This was his first time. He, who had always been fearless, was so nervous that his face was pale.

Bai Di wanted him to go back, but he braced himself and followed.

Just because of this, Shuang Yun decided that he would never call him showy behind his back again.

Xue Ling sat on the ground, panting. He still didn’t look good. His long blonde hair cascaded down to the ground.

Chang Gu patted his shoulder. “Are you okay?”

Xue Ling shook his head, indicating that he was fine.

Shuang Yun then wiped the water off his face and looked around. “I think I heard Huanhuan just now. Where is she?”

“I’m here!” Huanhuan jumped at his feet and tried to wave her leaves. “Look down. I’m at your feet!”

Shuang Yun looked down and was very surprised to see the little white flower in front of him. “Huanhuan? Why have you become like this?”

“I became a flower after eating a lotus seed,” Huanhuan said quickly. “Now is not the time to talk about this. Sang Ye has been captured. Go and save him!”

Bai Di told Huanhuan to stay in the underground cave and not move. He turned into a white tiger and rushed out aggressively.

Shuang Yun and Xue Ling also transformed into their beast forms and followed closely behind.

Chang Gu walked at the back. His beast form was too big. This underground cave could not accommodate his body at all. He could only wait until he got out of the cave before returning to his original form.

Huanhuan knew that she was not capable enough. If she followed, she might even drag them down. Even though she was anxious, she could only wait patiently for them to return.

She chastised herself dejectedly. “I’m so useless. Every time this happens, I can only hide behind my mates. I can’t help.”

System 438 comforted her. “The host actually has many advantages.”

“Such as?”

The system said, “You know how to cook.”

“But my cooking isn’t as good as Bai Di’s.”

The system said, “You know a lot.”

“That knowledge can only coax these beasts who don’t know anything. In modern society, I’m just a very ordinary person.”

The system said, “You’re cute.”

“In terms of looks, Bai Di, Shuang Yun, and Sang Ye can easily beat me.”

The system said, “You have to have some confidence in yourself.”

“I’m just telling the truth.”

The system said, “Let me think about it. I can definitely think of your strengths.”

Huanhuan became even more depressed. “Forget it. I’m useless. Stop comforting me.”

“Sigh!” The system sighed.

Huanhuan turned around to face the underground lake and said gloomily, “I want to be alone. Don’t ask me who alone is. I don’t know who she is.”

The system had a flash of inspiration. “Host, your lame jokes are very good! This is also an advantage, right?!”

Huanhuan looked resentful: “…”

Helpless, the system could only say, “Actually, if the host wants to become stronger, there’s a way…”

Huanhuan immediately perked up and asked, “What way?”

“As long as you awaken the Divine Wood seed in your body, you can obtain the power bestowed by the Divine Wood. If you’re lucky enough, you might be able to condense the heart of nature in the future and become a demiG.o.d.”

Huanhuan had heard the words ‘heart of nature’ more than once. It sounded powerful, but she had no idea what it looked like.

But none of that mattered. She had to get stronger.

She didn’t want to have to hide behind her family and be unable to help.

She wanted to protect them!

Huanhuan asked, “Didn’t you say that this seed of mine is a dead seed? Can a dead seed be awakened?”

“Divine Wood is the source of life. It’s immortal. The seed I gave you just looks dead. In fact, it’s just in a long hibernation. As long as you follow the right method, you can wake it from its slumber.”

Huanhuan asked about the way to awaken the Divine Wood seed.

Unexpectedly, the system only gave her a very intriguing answer.

“You need to fight to the death.”

Huanhuan was very confused. “I understand the saying, but I don’t understand what you mean.”

“Divine Wood is a symbol of life. The end of life is death, and death is another form of rebirth…”

Huanhuan interrupted its nagging. “Please speak in human language!”

“You have to die once, then come back to life.”

Huanhuan was shocked by this answer. “Die? That’s too ruthless!”

The system was very confident. “Don’t worry, host. With me around, even if you die, I’ll definitely save you!”

“Really? Won’t there be an accident?”

“Don’t worry. If the host dies, my system will die too. I have to keep you alive for my own sake.”

Huanhuan was relieved to hear that.

Suddenly, someone touched her petals.

Huanhuan thought that Bai Di and the others were back. She turned around happily, only to see a translucent tentacle stop in front of her.

They were less than a centimeter apart.
