Chapter Eighty-Eight: Learning from the Leader of the Monsters
“Crack!”
Then, the pitch-black collar around Meng Yue’s neck suddenly shattered. Bai Yu also felt a dizzying sensation at this moment, subconsciously falling onto Meng Yue’s snow-white skin, and grabbing her hand to press against his slightly aching head…
“Ma… Master? Are you alright?”
Looking at Bai Yu’s exhausted appearance, Meng Yue was completely unconcerned about what he did to her body, and instead anxiously asked, “How are you? Anywhere uncomfortable, meow?”
“It’s fine, just that the magic energy loss is quite severe.”
To this, Bai Yu explained, “I can prepare other magic spells in advance, but this exclusive skill cannot be sealed into any magic array beforehand. It must be performed by the leader in person… so it’s quite tiring.”
“I’m sorry, it’s all my fault…”
Seeing Bai Yu, who looked exhausted, leaning on her, Meng Yue said with some heartache, “If I could control my consciousness after transforming into a magic beast, I wouldn’t need you to specifically control me…”
“Alright! Instead of saying such things, why don’t we go back and soak in a hot spring together!”
Patting Meng Yue’s conscience, Bai Yu said leisurely, “No monster can retain their mind after transforming into a magic beast… I can’t either. You don’t need to blame yourself for this!”
“That’s true!”
Hearing Bai Yu’s comfort, Meng Yue didn’t dwell on it anymore! She was only worried about her beloved master getting hurt earlier, but now seeing Bai Yu’s strong and spirited hands, she returned to her usual carefree self…
“Then… let’s go take a bath!”
Shaking her cat ears, Meng Yue excitedly said, “Then I want to go to the best bathhouse! After all, being with the leader… we can’t use anything too shabby, right?”
“Sure thing! Besides, considering your achievements today, soaking in the highest规格 for several days is completely possible!”
“Really? That’s great!~ I love Master the most, meow!”

However, compared to the jubilant atmosphere on Bai Yu’s side, the atmosphere in the residence was extremely heavy. The executioner miss lowered her head… while Xiao Feiren, who had just woken up lying on the sofa, rubbed her eyes, still unaware of what had happened.
“You mean…”
The floating white puppet, in disbelief, asked, “The leader skill of the leader of the monsters is to control magic beasts?”
“Exactly.”
Nodding, Shenchuan softly said, “I remember clearly, he called that skill the Chain of Covenant.”
“Me?”
However, upon noticing Shenchuan’s change in pronoun, Pabi floated in front of her, circling her head twice before asking, “Did that guy do anything strange to you?”
“Strange things?”
Hearing this, the executioner miss thought for a moment… then replied, “Apart from always wanting to smash my helmet for some reason, nothing strange happened.”
In Shenchuan’s view, pressing her finger on her forehead wasn’t a strange thing. After all, the result didn’t cause her much impact, compared to the inexplicable dizziness caused by a fierce battle… that was nothing.
Of course, this was because Bai Yu had pressed his finger tightly against Shenchuan’s forehead. Due to this action, Shenchuan didn’t see the black beam shoot from his fingertip into her head…
“But, how—”
Pabi wanted to say more, but at this moment, Shenchuan spoke first, interrupting Pabi!
“Master Pabi, no matter what, I want to defeat that monster leader!”
Biting her silver teeth, the executioner miss firmly said, “That despicable scoundrel! The humiliation he brought me today… I will never forget!”
Huh? What?
The words Shenchuan spoke and her tone directly made Pabi look like she saw a ghost! Such emotional words and full-of-emotion tone… was this person really the emotionless artificial human she created?
Just because she lost to the monster leader, her artificial human actually developed human emotions? How could this be—
At this moment, Shenchuan turned her gaze to Xiao Feiren, and after gathering some emotions, she grabbed Feiren’s hand, using an encouraging tone, “Miss Feiren! Let’s work hard together to defeat that hateful monster leader!”
“Of course! I will definitely work with Sister Yilin to kill him!”
Listening to the usually emotionless Shenchuan speaking such uplifting words, Feiren was naturally encouraged. Lying on the sofa with sore muscles, she wished she could immediately get up and start training!
But… if Feiren knew what Shenchuan was thinking at this moment, she wouldn’t know what expression she would have.
[To win over him… I have to use everything available.]
Scanning Feiren and Pabi, the executioner miss secretly thought: [Whether it’s Master Pabi or Feiren, I will use them well.]
And for the Pabi and Feiren she was about to use, Shenchuan had not the slightest bit of guilt. On the contrary, she originally had no emotions, but due to the effect of the forbidden magic… she alone gained strange feelings towards Bai Yu.
And because she still had no emotions towards other living beings, her thoughts became extremely twisted! Others might exaggerate when they say they would do anything to achieve something, but when Shenchuan said she would do anything to beat Bai Yu… she truly meant it!
“Master Pabi.”
At this moment, Shenchuan calmly opened her mouth, “According to my summary of the recent battle record: The monster leader used a clone as bait, setting a trap to lure me into attacking.”
“That’s right… I also just found out he has clones, which is indeed one of his despicable strategies.”
Pabi nodded, but for some reason… it sensed a bad premonition!
“Even if it’s despicable… the monster leader is indeed an enemy worth taking seriously, so as opponents, we must learn his tactics.”
To this, Shenchuan said without expression, “Only by learning him can we surpass him! Therefore, I think we can imitate and learn various tactics of the monster leader.”
“Ex… examples?”
“Such as…”
Looking at Pabi with an unemotional gaze, Shenchuan said calmly, “We can also use Master Pabi as bait, setting a trap to attract the monster leader.”
