Chapter 47: Yo-yo Planet
Translator:KingbaoEditor:DarkGem
Awhoo!
Yet another familiar roar erupted behind Yao Si, and the next moment, a gigantic mouth bolted towards her, spitting a mouthful of sticky substance at her.
Yao Si cursed internally, why was it always her? Thatwas why she hated bugs the most!
She glanced around, but there didn't seem to be anyescape. Gritting her teeth, she prepared to brave through it!
Summoning the energy within her, she took a deep breath. Then shetossed her hands forward, releasing all her energy. Regardless of what ability it was, it just had to withstand this attack.
Suddenlyawhite glow flooded her sight. It seemed like a white water mirror which was spreadingin all directions like a defensive veilthat not only blockedthe stickysubstancesbut also stopped the black holesin frontof Yao Si, preventing them from spreading anymore.
What's...this?
Before Yao Si could react, the white water veil shook.Zsss!Something flowed out, and the next moment, with a loudpssh,an enormous round ball shot out, smashing hard against the caterpillar's body. It couldn't even shriek once before its brain was crushed. Its massive bodyinstantlylostall spirit,and the skyfull of black holes disappearedall at once.
The crowd exclaimedin hundreds of voices.
"It was...smashed to death!"
"F*ck, you candefeat a galactic beast like this?"
"What was used? It happened so swiftly Icould barely catch a glimpse!"
"It's Planet 14, the planet that the beast just ate! The Galactic beast was smashed to death by Planet 14!"
"Where did she get it from? What kind of ability is that?"
"She tossedan entire planet, could it be a strength ability?"
"Have you seen a strength ability that can lift an entire planet?"
"..."
Everyone present was confused, and so they turned toward the person at thefront.
Yao Si felt perplexed as she stared at her palms for half a second. Her mouth then trembled slightly, and anincredulous thought passedher mind. The galactic beast ate a planet and it had been laterspat out by a white water mirror, so the ability that had activated her ability was...
Yao Si looked around for a table to toss!
(╯‵□′)╯︵┻━┻
Why was the ability summoned linked to the beast's ability! How could it be so random?
The galactic beast's ability wasdevouring. Devour... so did that meanthathers was discharge?
She was instantly uncomfortable.
-
The Galactic beast was dead, and it was smashed to death by her. She was famous!
When Yao Si flew back, the entire crowd stared at her weirdly. It seemed like excitement,but with a hint of depression. As she flew, she could hear them murmuring repeatedly, "Hurry, look, it's that girl that smashed the galactic beast with a planet!
"..."
Could they stop looking at her as though she was the hulk? She just wanted to be the weak girl by the side!
"Dad..." she complained to the man inthefront.Ithink my image is wrecked."Why did my passive ability work on the galactic beast?"
"Mu Xuan!" He stopped working on his optical computerand correctedher seriously."Your ability is a counter of your opponent's, it acts on their ability and not the user itself. It doesn't discriminate."
"..."Is that even possible?"What was my ability back then?"
"The galactic beast's ability wasdevour so yours...should have beencreation."
"Uh?!" Wasn't it discharge? Why did it toss a planet out...
"The white gleam of barrier that blocked the spit is your ability." Mu Xuan lifted his head to glance at the white water barrier that was fading gradually."The appearance of Planet 14 was just a coincidence."The Galactic beast didn't swallow it directly but had instead opened a devouring portal in itsmouth, setting it there temporarily for digestion in the future. However, his cub's ability filled the portal, squeezing the planet out.
"But everyone thought Idid it."
She was already prepared for the headlines tomorrow.
#Shocking news! A superhuman female bloodling, treating planets as yo-yos at the border of the Galaxy!#
Didn't it seem insane?
"Don't worry."Mu Xuanreached out to caress her hair,comforting her once more. "If you aren't willing, no one will remember yourface."
"Ah?" Yao Si asked in confusion. What did he mean?
"I'll blur their impression of you."
"You mean...using your mental strength?" Oh right, Mu Xuan could use his mental ability to swap out his appearance, so he could naturally do that for her as well.
"Yea!" He nodded, and it wasn't just his mental ability, either. Amoment ago he had deleted all the footage from the space station. Others would just be aware that someone had smashed the galactic beast to death, but they wouldn't know that it had been her.
Yao Si was overwhelmed. The weird stares left her, and even though she could still hear heated discussions, they no longer centered around her. Yao Si finally calmed down, and her energy returnedonce more now that her image was intact.
"Dad!"
"Mu Xuan!"he corrected once more, feeling the headache of having pampered his own cub.
"Daddy Mu."
"..."He sighedand his head to glance at the time. Straightening, he said, "Let's go home for dinner."
"Alright." Yao Si followed behind cheerfully. However, they bumped into Huo Qi at the door.
"You're leaving so fast?" Huo Qi looked at them in surprise."Aren't you going to wait for the rewardsfromthe Alliance?"
"We're not waiting." The reward wasn't their aim anyways.
"Why not! TheAlliance won't make it up to you." Huo Qi frowned, not understanding the rich men's world. He added, "I heard that the galactic beast had reached stage seven, so the rewards will definitely be substantial. Besides..." He suppressedhis voice, then continuedmysteriously, "Since Iwas far away, Ididn't witness it,but there was an incredible person that lifted Planet 14and smashed it againstthe galactic beast. Thatwasa stage seven beast! We must have been lucky to have met such an incredible person. Now, without even putting in any effort, we'll be able to receive an award, and asubstantial one at that. That person might also smash the next beast, so maybe you two should wait for a little more?"
Yao Si's face hardened.Good day bro, goodbye bro!
"We're in a rush, so we'll be really leaving now."
"...Alright," Hyo Qi saidwith regret. After a moment, he sent her a message. [After I receive the reward, I'll send it over. It isn't easy to get here, so don't waste your efforts.]
"Thank you," Yao Si replied nonchalantly, following after Mu Xuan.
There wasn't a direct portal at the border of the Galaxy,but with Mu Xuan beside her, they returned back at a breakneck speed. He waved in the air, opening a passageway that sent them straight to the nearest galactic door, and in less than two minutes, they were back home.
Yao Si had an impulse to keep Mu Xuanwith her at all times—it would definitely save her alot of transport cost!
