Every Day I’m Reforming My Disciple [Transmigration into a Book] - Chapter 10
For convenience, both Han Le and the female lead were using transformed appearances.
Chen Haotian climbed up from the ground, patted the dust off his robes, and ran over.
“I am Chen Haotian. These are my two good friends, Jiang Aotian and Shi Jian.”
The two of them cupped their hands toward Han Le and the others in greeting.
“My name is Lili.” The little fox’s eyes curved into crescents as she smiled.
“Le Han.”
The little fox raised her head, her big eyes blinking. Han Le reached out and rubbed her fluffy head.
Han Qu watched this scene with disdain. “Chen Ju.”
Chen Haotian’s eyes lit up. “Miss Chen, we share the same surname. What fate.”
Han Le’s gaze met the female lead’s. She saw the other woman slowly say, “Fake name.”
“Uh.” Chen Haotian froze, then immediately said, “As the saying goes, those fated may meet from a thousand miles away, while those not fated will not meet even face-to-face. Miss Chen’s fake name happens to share my surname, so that is also fate. Fate indeed.”
Jiang Aotian and Shi Jian truly wanted to pretend they did not know this person. The girl clearly did not want to pay attention to him, yet he kept leaning over. It was unbearably awkward.
Not actively asking the other party’s race, identity, or reason for coming was a rule that had existed in Mount Li for ten thousand years.
If one was in Mount Li, one had to follow it. This was an unspoken understanding among those who came here seeking treasure.
“I heard there is an immortal herb on Mount Li that can bring people back from the dead. My junior sister is seriously injured and bedridden, so I came here especially to search for medicine. This is my first time here. I didn’t expect even the entrance to be full of difficulties. Looking at that demonic beast on the bridge, ten of me wouldn’t be enough for it to crush. What should we do?”
In just a few sentences, Chen Haotian clearly explained why he had come here, then looked at his companions in confusion.
Shi Jian looked at Han Le and the others with a trace of vigilance in his eyes. He pulled Chen Haotian aside and lowered his voice.
“Can you stop saying everything out loud?”
“Did I say something I shouldn’t have?” Chen Haotian asked in a normal volume, puzzled.
“Lower your voice.” Shi Jian felt exhausted.
At the side, Jiang Aotian lowered his head and saw the little fox standing below him. She pointed at his huge biceps.
“Can Lili touch it?”
Her fluffy fox tail swayed behind her.
Jiang Aotian said, “Let me tug on your tail, and I’ll let you touch it.”
Who knew that after hearing this, Lili would immediately panic and hide behind Han Le, tears shimmering in her eyes.
“Stinky pervert.”
Jiang Aotian: “……”
The group walked to the bridgehead. The black demonic beast was still sleeping in the middle of the bridge.
Lili was a little scared. “Will it eat Lili?”
“Little fellow, don’t worry. With your Uncle Aotian here, that thing won’t dare eat you.” Jiang Aotian raised his two axes in demonstration.
As a result, Lili became even more afraid.
“Aotian, don’t be reckless. Why don’t I go test it first?”
“Good.”
“Good.”
Han Le and the female lead looked at each other. The female lead immediately looked away.
Shi Jian truly suspected that something was wrong with Chen Haotian’s brain. At a time like this, he actually dared to be the first one to test the path.
Truly, newborn calves were not afraid of tigers.
The key point was that these two young ladies had agreed so readily. Clearly, they wanted them to go first and die.
Forget it. He was only accompanying them along the way anyway. They were not that close.
Chen Haotian took one step onto the bridge. The black demonic beast’s ear suddenly moved, and his legs immediately began trembling. Was he being too impulsive? He quickly looked back.
Han Le felt that the male lead had the protagonist halo, so he definitely would not die. Thus, she gave him an encouraging look.
Han Qu, however, was a little impatient. She wished she could directly kick him over, especially after seeing Han Le’s encouraging gaze.
Both ladies seemed to want him to keep walking, but Chen Haotian suddenly became timid. He looked to Jiang Aotian for help.
Jiang Aotian had grown tired from bending his knees, so he rested his hands on them. Seeing Chen Haotian being so wishy-washy, he impatiently waved at him. Chen Haotian thought the other man had seen his difficulty and was calling him back, only to hear him say, “Are you walking or not? We still have to gather medicine for little junior sister.”
The little fox also blinked at him.
Chen Haotian then looked toward Shi Jian. The other man looked at the sky and the ground, but not at him.
Gritting his teeth, he thought, Fine! For little junior sister!
The female lead suddenly moved closer to Han Le. “Master, have you forgotten something?”
“Hm?”
“You promised to help your disciple kill Chen Haotian.”
Her black eyes stared at Han Le.
Han Le opened her mouth. “Chen Haotian is human. How does Disciple know him?”
That profound gaze stayed on her for a few seconds before moving away. “If Master is unwilling, then forget it.”
Han Le still wanted to say a few more words, but the other woman put distance between them, clearly refusing to continue the conversation.
On the bridge, the male lead was cautiously moving forward step by step.
Just as he was about to approach the black demonic beast, he suddenly disappeared from where he stood.
Jiang Aotian immediately straightened up and picked up his two axes. “Where did Chen Haotian go?”
Shi Jian also looked confused. “He was clearly still up there just now…”
“Big Brother disappeared.” The little fox raised her head to look at Han Le.
This… Han Le did not know either.
She instinctively looked toward the female lead.
“Let’s go. There should be another passage in front of the demonic beast,” Han Qu said calmly.
Jiang Aotian suddenly blocked them. “How can we men still be here and let you women take the risk? I’ll go walk over there and see if there’s danger.”
One after another. Shi Jian truly wanted to curse them for being idiots.
He looked at the two women of unknown identity, then still followed Jiang Aotian. “I’ll go with you.”
Their situation was the same as Chen Haotian’s. When they reached the black demonic beast, they disappeared.
The beast continued sleeping.
“So magical! Lili wants to go too!”
Before Han Le could grab her, Lili had already run up. She also vanished from where she stood.
Han Le then looked at the female lead. “Let’s go.”
However, an accident occurred.
When they were only a few steps away from the black demonic beast, it suddenly opened its eyes, let out a roar, bared its fangs, and pounced toward them.
Han Le immediately blocked the female lead. Her back took a heavy blow, and the blood she spat out dyed the other woman’s shoulder red.
“Run.”
As she spoke, she pushed the female lead away with one palm. Purplish-red spiritual energy condensed, and she fiercely struck at the demonic beast. With a bang, the demonic beast fell, but the bridge in the middle was also violently broken by Han Le’s burst of spiritual energy.
With almost all the spiritual energy in her body suppressed, Han Le reached out, wanting to grab something, but caught nothing. Her body plummeted downward.
“Han Le!”
The female lead’s figure suddenly appeared. She leapt down and caught Han Le around the waist.
Han Le, who had thought she was about to die, felt the warmth of the female lead’s body and suddenly felt at ease.
It was fine. With the female lead’s halo—
Suddenly, a bloody maw appeared and swallowed both of them in one bite.
“……”
