Chapter 1016 - Gathering Information

Yan Kuan was also shocked by Shen Xiaoxiao’s exclamation, but Shen Xiaoxiao dropped the crystal in her hand onto her sleeping bag.

“It’s true, Yan Kuan. I heard the voice of a magical beast just now.”

“Are you sure?”

“It’s true. It’s in the tree hole outside. Go take a look and see if there’s a magical beast.”

Yan Kuan looked at Shen Xiaoxiao’s excited look and really stood up to walk out of the hole. In a short while, he returned with two little squirrels.

“There are only these two little things outside holed up in the tree hole.”

Shen Xiaoxiao looked at the two squirrels chirping excitedly. But why couldn’t she hear them now?

“Do you want to communicate with them?”

Shen Xiaoxiao also started to feel strange. Why did it seem like she couldn’t hear them now?

Yan Kuan glanced at her without saying anything. He tied the two squirrels to a corner and continued to roast the meat.

Shen Xiaoxiao was depressed. She had clearly heard it just now. How could it be like this?

She walked to the side of the squirrels and talked for a long time. She teased them for a long time, but the squirrels did not respond to her. She was really disappointed.

She sat back on her sleeping bag gloomily and said angrily,”I clearly heard it just now. They even said that their fur had shrunk.”

“Be good. You’re too tired.”

“I’m not. I’m not tired. It’s not an illusion. Hmph.”

Shen Xiaoxiao was angry. She really did not have an illusion. She really heard it just now.

Why did Yan Kuan not believe her?

Shen Xiaoxiao was so petty that she sat on her sleeping bag and did not speak to Yan Kuan anymore. She looked at the bed full of crystals and put them away gloomily. However, when she held the green crystal in her hand just now, the voices were heard again.

“It’s so scary. What kind of species is this male? Why does he want to catch us? Is he trying to eat our meat? We’re so small and we’re not even enough to fill the gaps between our teeth. Even magical beasts don’t eat us.”

“Yeah, what should we do? I’m not even full yet and we’ve been caught like this. Who can come and save us?”

Shen Xiaoxiao looked at the squirrel in the distance with some surprise, then looked at the green crystal in her hand. It seemed like she was holding the crystal just now.

She put the crystal down and listened again. There was no sound, but when she held it in her hand again, the sound came out again.

So she could really hear it.

“Yan Kuan, Yan Kuan.”

“Don’t worry, it will be done soon. You must be hungry. Be good, I’ll let you eat it when it’s cold.”

“No, come here quickly. Come here.”

Yan Kuan looked at this annoying person helplessly. What was wrong with her? However, he still obediently put the roast meat aside. Anyway, he had already roasted the meat, so it was done.

“What’s wrong? Be good. Didn’t Hubby say that you were hallucinating just now? My heart aches for you. Why are you acting coquettishly?”

“Acting coquettishly? Quick, take this. Listen to it.”

When Yan Kuan saw Shen Xiaoxiao forcefully stuff a green crystal into his hand, he was initially a little puzzled. However, he immediately stopped moving. It turned out that she could really hear the magical beast talking.

“They’re looking at us like that. It’s so scary. Are they discussing how to eat us? Why are they eating us? We’re so small. Sob, sob, sob–”

“Did you hear that? Did you hear that?”

“Yes, I heard it. So this crystal has this function.”

“But I’ve tried it. Only this green crystal can hear it.”

Yan Kuan was also very happy. If they could hear the language of the World of Magical Beasts, it would be great for them.

“Now, what we need to do will be much easier.”

“Yeah, but I want to see if I can communicate with them.”

“Little squirrel, can you understand us?”

“You... you... are talking to us? What do you want? Can you let us go? We’re so small.”

“We can understand them. They can understand us.”

Shen Xiaoxiao was getting more and more excited, and Yan Kuan was also getting excited. Being able to communicate was really good for them.

“Little squirrel, we’ll ask you a few questions. If you answer us, we’ll let you go.”

“Really? You can really let us go? But you’re not a magical beast. How can you enter the World of Magical Beasts?”

“You don’t have to worry about that. We just want to ask you the questions we want to know.”

“Alright, you can ask.”

The two little squirrels were really innocent.

“Have you seen two children who look like us but are younger than us?”

The squirrel looked at the two of them and thought for a moment:

“Other than the Ripper siblings, there are no other magical beasts like you.”

“The Ripper siblings?”

What was this?

What about the Mermaid siblings from before? There were actually not only magical beasts here, but also humans?

“Yeah, the Ripper siblings. They seem to be similar to you, but much smaller.”

“What about the Mermaid siblings?”

“Everyone in the World of Magical Beasts knows that the Mermaid Princess doesn’t recognize the Mermaid siblings as Mermaids, so they changed their names to the Ripper siblings.”

“Ah?”

Yan Kuan and Shen Xiaoxiao looked at each other. Were they their children, or were they not?

“Then do you know where the Ripper siblings are?”

“They’re in the cold pond. They live with the Big White Dragon, but you can’t get in there. All the magical beasts can’t get in.”

Shen Xiaoxiao was excited now. If they lived with the White Dragon, then it was very likely that they were their Da Bao and Little Treasure.

“Where is the cold pond? Lead the way for us.”

“No, no, we can’t go there. We’ll be injured. There are magical beasts on the way. We’re both still cultivating.”

“As long as you lead the way, we can give each of you a white crystal.”

“Ah? Really? You can give us a white crystal?”

“Yes. That way, you’ll be Level 1 magical beasts too.”

The two squirrels looked at each other as if they were discussing. The temptation was too great. They seemed to want it.

“We can take you there, but it’s snowing heavily now. We can’t get out. We’ll freeze to death.”

“We can wait for the snow to stop before we set off.”

“The snow will fall for at least four days. It will only stop when the next Magical Beast Arena.”

“What? It will fall for four days?”

“Yes, it will fall for four days.”

Shen Xiaoxiao was very disappointed. If it was going to fall for four days, wouldn’t it take a long time to see the children?

“Even if you go now, you won’t be able to see the Ripper siblings. Even if it snows, the magical beasts won’t come out. Also, we have to remind you that the Ripper siblings are very powerful. Their hands are especially sharp and can cut open the belly of the magical beasts. It’s really scary. Don’t provoke them.”

“Are they very powerful?”

“Yes, they are very powerful. Let me tell you, they broke the history of the World of Magical Beasts. At that time, it was like this...”

Hearing the two squirrels gently mention the story of the Ripper siblings, they did not know why, but they were not sure that it was their children. After all, they were killing magical beasts and burrowing into the stomach of magical beasts... They also had sharp, spiky hands. This did not seem like their family’s Da Bao and Little Treasure.

Was this, after all, their children?
