Chapter 401: The Unappreciative Sheng Xiao

“You scumbags, just because you’re good-looking, go around womanizing. You’re wasting air if you live, and you’re wasting land if you die!”

“Don’t think that just because you look righteous and dignified, you can fool me! Let me tell you, that’s impossible!”

“I get angry when I see handsome men like you!”

Sheng Xiao was being chased by the Soul Calming Beast. He jumped up and down in the tunnel in a sorry state. The Soul Calming Beast followed behind him calmly while cursing.

God knew that as a talkative Soul Calming Beast, it hadn’t caught a living person for many years. Now that it had finally met a living handsome man, it naturally had to vent its anger on Sheng Xiao.

Sheng Xiao missed his lover, Yu Huang, after he saw how powerful the Soul Calming Beast was.

Yu Huang was the cutest.

Sheng Xiao escaped to the entrance of the tunnel, but it was already closed. If Sheng Xiao didn’t want to be killed by the Soul Calming Beast, he could only forfeit.

But he never gave up.

Sheng Xiao turned around and stared at the Soul Calming Beast while panting. He couldn’t help but scold, “If you’ve been betrayed by a man, go find that man! Why are you venting it on me?!”

When the Soul Calming Beast heard this, she actually stopped.

The Soul Calming Beast looked very strange. It had a mighty head, like a lion, but there was a horn on its head.

Her body was covered in fish-like scales. Her two hind legs were thick and short, and there was something like a fin on her hind legs and ankles.

But those eyes were as clear and beautiful as a human’s.

It was said that Soul Calming Beasts lived in the sea.

When the Soul Calming Beast looked at Sheng Xiao, her beautiful eyes were filled with disgust and disdain. She squatted in front of Sheng Xiao and said angrily, “Of course I’ve taken revenge on that man. Do you know how I took revenge on them?”

Sheng Xiao was in awe when he noticed that the Soul Calming Beast used the word ‘them’. He asked humbly, “Have you had a few other relationships?”

The Soul Calming Beast thought about it and said, “About two hundred.”

Sheng Xiao was speechless.

Good lord, this was a real philanderer.

“You’re quite… popular.” Sheng Xiao had little relationship experience and couldn’t understand the Soul Calming Beast’s powerful and rich relationship experiences.

The Soul Calming Beast seemed to have recalled her interesting romantic past, and a trace of reminiscence appeared in her eyes.

The Soul Calming Beast raised her head slightly and stared at the man-made starry sky above the Saint Tomb. She sighed and said, “I was once a famous singer in the Divine Sea.”

The first thing the Soul Calming Beast said shocked Sheng Xiao.

The Soul Calming Beast noticed Sheng Xiao’s strange reaction and understood what he was thinking. “You don’t believe me?”

Sheng Xiao was about to shake his head when the Soul Calming Beast suddenly opened her mouth and chanted a tune. The tune sounded exotic, and it was very similar to the tune of the native marine clans near the Divine Sea.

The tune was indeed beautiful when it came out of the Soul Calming Beast’s mouth. At that moment, Sheng Xiao finally believed that the Soul Calming Beast was once a famous singer in the Divine Sea.

The Soul Calming Beast sang a song and asked Sheng Xiao proudly, “How is it? Isn’t my singing very pleasant? Isn’t it like the sound of nature?”

Sheng Xiao praised her sincerely. “Your voice is better than the sound of nature. This song should only exist in the heavens. It’s rare to hear it in the world.” Sheng Xiao even clapped expressionlessly.

He had never put in so much effort on acting in his life.

The Soul Calming Beast was so happy that she forgot about her disgust for handsome men.

The Soul Calming Beast sighed and recalled, “During the years I was in the Divine Sea, countless human male cultivators took a boat to the Divine Sea just to see me.”

“Is that so?”

“That’s right.” The Soul Calming Beast glanced at Sheng Xiao. “At that time, you humans gave me a title. You called me the sea singer.”

Sheng Xiao widened his eyes when he heard the words ‘sea singer’. “You’re the sea singer!”

The Soul Calming Beast didn’t expect that after thousands of years, there would still be someone who remembered her name. The Soul Calming Beast was immediately proud. “Brat, you’ve heard of my name?”

At the mention of her name, the Soul Calming Beast felt a little proud.

Sheng Xiao nodded with a complicated expression. He stared at the Soul Calming Beast’s huge body and recalled the documents he had read. He said, “According to the documents, a sea demon appeared in the Divine Sea two thousand years ago. Every time the bright moon was in the sky, her voice would be heard in the Divine Sea.”

“In that era, many male cultivators went to the Divine Sea alone to search for sea demons. According to the fishermen near the Divine Sea, there were more than 200 male cultivators who went to the sea to search for sea demons. None of these people went ashore, so the fishermen thought that they had all become the male pets of the sea demons. Therefore, some people guessed that the sea demon must be a beautiful woman with a graceful figure.”

Sheng Xiao stared at the Soul Calming Beast’s strange appearance. It was hard to associate her with a beautiful woman.

After hearing Sheng Xiao’s words, the Soul Calming Beast raised her head and looked at Sheng Xiao arrogantly. She said, “You’re right. I’m the legendary beautiful woman with a graceful figure.”

Sheng Xiao was speechless.

Was it because his sense of beauty was unorthodox, or was it because she had a misunderstanding about her own appearance?

No matter how he looked at it, the Soul Calming Beast had nothing to do with the beautiful woman.

“However,” The Soul Calming Beast spoke again. She said, “Those male cultivators didn’t become my male pets. They were all eaten by me.”

The Soul Calming Beast rubbed her stomach and said in disdain, “All of you look so sanctimonious. When you sit on the boat and listen to me sing, when you flirt with me, you always look affectionate. But every time I float out of the sea, when they see my true appearance, they all call me an ugly monster!”

“They fell in love with me because of my voice, but they despised me because of my appearance!” The Soul Calming Beast roared at Sheng Xiao. “Is a person’s appearance really that important? I’m ugly, but I’m very gentle!”

“I’m ugly, but I’m very gentle.”

Sheng Xiao almost sang the lyrics, but he held back.

“You men are all unreliable!” The Soul Calming Beast glared at Sheng Xiao. “I think you’re very handsome. A man like you must be a playboy.”

Sheng Xiao quickly shook his head. “I’m very devoted.”

“Pfft! You men are glib-tongued. You always make yourselves sound better than you actually are!” The Soul Calming Beast suddenly raised her front paw and pressed Sheng Xiao against the wall.

Sheng Xiao couldn’t fight back when he was pressed down by a demon beast that could rival a Grand Master.

Sheng Xiao’s internal organs trembled from the Soul Calming Beast’s kick. His face turned pale and his nose bled.

Sheng Xiao hadn’t been in such a sorry state in a long time.

“You say that you’re devoted. I want to see if you’re lying or not!” The Soul Calming Beast suddenly bit Sheng Xiao’s shoulder and sucked his blood.

Sheng Xiao gasped in pain.

At this moment, Sheng Yang suddenly ran over from behind the passageway. Seeing that her brother was pressed against the wall by the Soul Calming Beast, she immediately summoned her polar bear beast form and punched the Soul Calming Beast’s back—

“Mountain Pushing Palm!”

Sheng Yang used all her strength to attack the Soul Calming Beast. However, as a mere Scholar, how could she injure a level 8 demon beast?

Sheng Yang’s attack was equivalent to scratching an itch for the Soul Calming Beast.

After being punched by Sheng Yang, the Soul Calming Beast didn’t even sway. She suddenly shook Sheng Xiao off and slammed her against another wall.

The Soul Calming Beast turned around and scolded Sheng Yang, who was lying on the ground, “Little girl, get lost. I hate beautiful human girls the most.”

For a moment, Sheng Yang didn’t know if the Soul Calming Beast was praising her beauty or despising her.

Sheng Yang glanced at her seriously injured brother. She summoned the Demon Drinking Saber and stood up shakily to shield her brother.

Sheng Yang raised the Demon Drinking Saber, and a crazy expression appeared on her cold face. “Soul Calming Beast, I won’t let you hurt my brother!”

Sheng Yang’s thin body stood in front of Sheng Xiao, but she was as firm as an iron pillar.

Sheng Xiao stared at his sister’s thin body and was touched. “Yang Yang, move aside. You’re not her match.”

Sheng Yang turned around and said to Sheng Xiao loudly, “The Soul Calming Beast hates men and good-looking girls. When she gets angry, she will really kill people!”

“Don’t worry, I’ll protect you!”

Sheng Xiao pushed himself against the wall and stood up. “Let’s go together.” It was not a good deal to lose their lives for the sake of a Prime Master inheritance.

Hearing this, Sheng Yang endured the pain and retreated to her brother’s side with the knife.

Seeing that the siblings were planning to leave, the Soul Calming Beast sneered. “You think can come and go as you please?” As she spoke, the Soul Calming Beast suddenly jumped up high.

It jumped three times in a row, and the teleportation eye floating on the ceiling of the Saint Tomb was shattered by the Soul Calming Beast.

Sheng Xiao and Sheng Yang were shocked.

They couldn’t get out!

After shattering the teleportation eye, the Soul Calming Beast landed on the ground again. She said to Sheng Xiao, “I can read people’s memories by drinking their blood. Let me take a closer look at your memories. If you’re a playboy, I’ll tear you apart and swallow you today.”

“If you’re indeed as loyal as you say, then you’ve passed my test.”

Sheng Xiao pressed his chest and asked while enduring the pain, “A hundred years ago, my father came to take the test. He was not a playboy. Why didn’t he pass the test?”

Although Sheng Lingfeng and Lan Yao had yet to know each other at that time, Sheng Lingfeng had never been in a relationship before meeting Lan Yao.

He was not a playboy.

“Your father?” The Soul Calming Beast thought about it carefully and said uncertainly, “Is he that handsome young man called… Sheng Lingfeng?”

Sheng Xiao and Sheng Yang nodded at the same time.

The Soul Calming Beast immediately sneered. “Him? He’s just an unappreciative man!”

Sheng Yang subconsciously asked, “How is my father unappreciative?!”

The Soul Calming Beast actually said, “He’s not a playboy, but he doesn’t have a heart at all! I’ve drunk his blood and seen his memories. There’s a woman called Liuli something. She’s beautiful and powerful, and she’s devoted to him, but your father blindly ignored her pursuit! That’s why I said that he doesn’t know what’s good for him.”

Sheng Lingfeng was ignorant, so he naturally couldn’t pass her test.

Sheng Xiao and Sheng Yang didn’t know whether to sympathize with Sheng Lingfeng or laugh at him.

No wonder their father always said that Prime Master Tie Feng’s inheritance test was very strange and difficult to figure out.

“Shut up and be quiet! I want to look at your memories carefully.” The Soul Calming Beast glared at Sheng Xiao and his sister warningly. The siblings immediately sat down by the wall and took the opportunity to recover their spiritual power.

The Soul Calming Beast squatted on the ground and licked the blood at the corner of her mouth. Then, she closed her eyes and searched Sheng Xiao’s memories carefully.

She skipped Sheng Xiao’s memories before he was 16 years old and started looking from then on.

This kid was very popular. Since he was 16 years old, there had been outstanding and beautiful girls confessing to him.

Tsk tsk, he was actually indifferent to the flattery of so many beautiful girls.

This was even more outrageous than his father! He was even more unappreciative!
