Chapter 2557: 2557
Tang Ming’er had only just entered the sanctuaries, and although her geno arts weren’t bad, her genes hadn’t been reinforced . She was weak, and she couldn’t outrun the giant demon centipede . The centipede caught up within seconds .
Tang Ming’er held Littleflower as she dashed away, but the skies suddenly turned dark . An enormous shadow fell over the ground . Without looking up, she knew the giant demon centipede’s mouth was hanging agape over their heads .
“Why am I this unlucky? Does God envy smart people or something? Or is it because I, Tang Ming’er, am simply too smart?” Tang Ming’er thought to herself . It could be said that her disposition was gloomy, and that was putting it lightly .
Tang Ming’er was still pulling Littleflower’s hands as she ran . Seeing the open mouth of the giant demon centipede drawing close behind her, she threw Littleflower forward .
Seeing that scary mouth draw so close, Tang Ming’er felt like she was about to dissolve in fear . After all, she was an underage girl . She kind of looked like Tang Zhenliu, but she had never encountered a near-death experience before . So, she was afraid .
Seeing the giant demon centipede mouth about to eat her, Tang Ming’er’s vision turned blurry . Then, she saw the giant demon centipede’s head hit the ground near her . Soil and grass sprayed everywhere . The creature’s head was inside a crater, and the boy with red lips and white teeth was standing atop the creature’s body .
Tang Ming’er’s eyes opened wide . She stared at the boy upon the giant demon centipede’s head . It was the boy she had been carrying moments before .
“Big Sister, are you okay?” Han Littleflower walked over to Tang Ming’er, looking worried .
Tang Ming’er had no clue how to compose herself . She just stared at Han Littleflower in utter shock . No other response came to mind .
She couldn’t believe this boy, who looked a few years younger than she was herself, was standing on top of a sacred-blood giant demon centipede . He made it look so easy .
“Big Sister, what’s wrong?” Han Littleflower saw that Tang Ming’er had frozen . He thought she was injured . He placed his hands on her forehead, preparing to inject power into her body and see where she might be hurt .
As this happened, the giant demon centipede struggled to pull its head out of the soil . Tang Ming’er was scared again . She fell back .
“You scared Big Sister! Go apologize . ” Han Littleflower turned around and glared at the giant demon centipede .
The giant demon centipede’s body shivered and shook . As Tang Ming’er watched with unbelieving eyes, the giant demon centipede lowered its body . It kept nodding toward Tang Ming’er as if it was begging for forgiveness .
“This… what is going on? Am I dreaming? Is this really the sacred-blood creature known as a giant demon centipede?” Tang Ming’er was frozen .
“Big Sister! Are you okay?” Han Littleflower ran in front of Tang Ming’er again and placed his hands on her forehead .
Tang Ming’er’s face blushed . She fell back and looked at him . “Who are you? No, are you human? Why would a demon centipede listen to you?”

“My name is Han Littleflower, and I am human . Didn’t I already tell you this?” He pointed at the giant demon centipede and said, “He can’t beat me . Of course he listens to me . ”
“Han Littleflower… Your surname is Han? Are you related to Uncle Han Sen?” Tang Ming’er quickly asked .
“I’m his son . Have you seen my Dad?” Upon hearing his dad’s name get spoken, Littleflower became immeasurably happy .
“You are Uncle Han’s son? In that case, no wonder you can do this . My grandfather said anything can happen to the Han family, and that is because the Han family is so weird . ” Tang Ming’er’s eyes were wide as she said, “I didn’t believe my grandfather’s words . I thought I was a genius, but you are so young and already this strong? What he was saying had to be true . ”
“Big Sister, where are you going? I can take you where you need to go,” Han Littleflower said .
“Take me? How would you take me?” Tang Ming’er asked .
Han Littleflower took Tang Ming’er by the hand . He guided her over to the demon centipede’s head . Then, he pulled out a blanket from his bag . He asked Tang Ming’er to sit down on it . He brought out some fruit for her .
As the sun was setting, the giant demon centipede ran across the fields . Atop it was a boy and a young woman . The demon centipede ran fast, but it carefully maintained its stability to avoid disrupting the two it carried . It looked as if it was struggling to do that, though .

If the demon centipede was able to talk, it would probably have been crying something along the lines of, “Gee! Why am I so unlucky?”
Han Sen gulped down another King class xenogeneic gene . He had one hundred King class xenogeneic genes .
“I wonder how soon I’ll be able to become half-deified,” Han Sen mumbled to himself . He wanted to upgrade his Dongxuan Area .
At the same time, in the core area, no one dared to provoke him . He was depending on Consume and Big Destroyed to eat his King xenogeneic genes . His Dongxuan Area had reached the ninth tier . He only needed one more rank to transcend King class and become a half-deified being .
Unfortunately, Han Sen was disappointed . Despite having one hundred King genes, his Dongxuan Area was refusing to level up .
“It looks like I need my power to break through the ninth tier and have it all return to one to become half-deified . ” Han Sen had already guessed this might happen . Setting aside his disappointment, he used those one hundred King xenogeneic genes to level up Jadeskin instead .
Right now, Han Sen was looking very annoyed . The rate at which he was consuming his amassed genes was far outpacing the speed at which he was able to hunt more creatures and replenish his stock . His reserves were being depleted .
The core area had many King xenogeneics, but the place was so big that it took forever to travel between destinations . It could take him several days to find a single King xenogeneic .

For an ordinary King, that might have been a decent time . But for someone like Han Sen, that wasn’t nearly quick enough . He needed a shortcut .
“No, I must find more King xenogeneic genes,” Han Sen thought to himself . And as he spoke to himself, his mind started to rummage through a trove of different ideas that might enable him to collect vast swathes of King xenogeneic genes all at once .
The fastest way would be to hunt deifieds with Dragon One or someone else again . But if there really was a deified creature about, Han Sen would have preferred to kill it himself . Helping others wouldn’t really be worth it .
As Han Sen thought deeply about this problem, someone came hurrying over . The person moved in front of him to block his way .
“Barr?” When Han Sen saw Barr, he suddenly felt a headache coming on . He wasn’t afraid; he just thought the man was annoying .
“Han Sen, I’m going to lay it down straight for you . I want you to bless me . I can give you anything your heart desires in return for this,” Barr said, upon stopping in front of him .
“Okay . How about two thousand King xenogeneic genes?” Han Sen suggested, staring at Barr .
Barr was taken aback . Two thousand King xenogeneic genes was a big number .
