Chapter 14: Whitey’s Strange Reaction!

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

“Meow!”

Hearing Whitey’s voice, Lin Bei stopped and reached out to pat Whitey’s head. He was a little surprised.

At this moment, Xue Changfeng’s voice sounded in Lin Bei’s ear.

“What’s going on, Lin Bei? Is your little white cat afraid?”

“It won’t just leave you and run away, will it?”

“Hahahahaha!”

Hearing this, Lin Bei ignored Xue Changfeng and looked at Whitey, who had been standing on his shoulder.

Although he and Whitey had only been together for a few days,

However, Lin Bei knew very well that Whitey is much more intelligent than other cats.

It was impossible for it to cry out in such a situation for no reason.

Besides…

The cry just now was clearly different from its usual coquettish voice.

“Do you feel something?”

“Meow!”

Whitey called out again in response to Lin Bei’s words.

Then, Whitey ran to the front of the team and shouted into the depths of the forest.

“Meow!”

“Meow!”

Seeing Whitey’s reaction, Lin Bei frowned.

Qin Yue also stopped in her tracks and looked at Lin Bei strangely.

“Student, is this your contract beast?”

She asked curiously.

In fact, she had wanted to ask when they had just formed a team.

That was because the cat looked no different from an ordinary cat.

However, on second thought, it seemed rude to ask so directly, so Qin Yue did not speak up about it for a long time.

Now that she had finally found an opportunity, she naturally would not miss it.

Lin Bei nodded and spoke his mind.

“Teacher Qin, there should be something up ahead. I think we have to report it to Teacher Du.”

“Something’s happening?”

Qin Yue was stunned for a moment before a strange expression appeared on her face.

She was a Level 7 Great Martial Master after all.

If anything happened, she should be the first to discover it, not a Demon Tamer without any spiritual energy in his body.

Moreover…

Lin Bei’s contract beast did not seem very reliable.

However, before Qin Yue could speak, Xue Changfeng, who was standing at the side, spoke first.

“Lin Bei, I thought your cat was afraid!”

“In the end, you’re the one who’s afraid! Hahahahahaha!”

“If anything happens, Sister Qin Yue will know before you do! Asking to report to Teacher Du! You’re killing me here!”

However, Lin Bei did not even look at Xue Changfeng. This made him feel as if he had been humiliated. His face turned red.

Qin Yue also looked at Lin Bei and said patiently.

“Lin Bei, if you’re not feeling well, you can apply for leave with the teacher.”

“This way, you can leave the forest early and wait for the mission to end on the school bus.”

Seeing Qin Yue’s answer, Lin Bei had no intention of explaining further. He waved at Whitey and called it back to his side before speaking to Qin Yue.

“I’m sorry, Teacher Qin.”

“I’m indeed not feeling well, I’ll take my leave first.”

With that, Lin Bei led Whitey out of the forest.

Bai Ranran looked in the direction that Lin Bei had left in and couldn’t help but feel a little strange.

In her memory, Lin Bei was definitely not the kind of person who would run away at the last minute.

Besides, it wasn’t particularly dangerous.

Moreover, Teacher Du had just told him that Lin Bei seemed to have come to the Sea Moon Forest yesterday…

At the thought of this, Bai Ranran suddenly seemed to have recalled something and hurriedly turned to Qin Yue.

“I’m really sorry, Sister Qin Yue. I’m not feeling well either!”

“I’ll go back to the school bus with Lin Bei first.”

With that, before Qin Yue could speak, Bai Ranran had already chased after Lin Bei with her Red Mane Lion.

Looking at the two of them leave, Qin Yue shook her head helplessly.

“Sigh, youngsters these days.”

In her opinion, only Lin Bei really wanted to leave, and Bai Ranran was just chasing after him to leave with him.

However, this did not have much to do with her. She only needed to bring the students and complete her mission.

As for how many students took leave and left, it had nothing to do with her.

“Who else wants to leave? Just leave with them.”

Qin Yue asked.

The two girls shook their heads, and Xue Changfeng took the opportunity to step on Lin Bei.

“Sister Qin Yue, don’t worry. I’m not like that coward Lin Bei!”

“He may look quite powerful, but he’s actually a coward!”

Hearing this, Qin Yue only nodded and continued to lead the remaining three students deeper.

On the other side, Lin Bei heard footsteps behind him. He turned around and realized that Bai Ranran had followed him.

Lin Bei could not help but feel puzzled.

However, he did not ask. Instead, he turned around and continued walking in the direction of the school bus.

“Lin Bei! Wait for me!”

Bai Ranran could not help but shout when she saw Lin Bei turn around and walk away without slowing down.

Upon hearing this, Lin Bei knew that it would be rude if he continued like this.

Hence, he could only stop.

However, the moment he stopped, Bai Ranran, who was behind him, did not manage to stop in time and tripped over a stone.

Seeing that she was about to fall to the ground, Lin Bei could only quickly support Bai Ranran.

However…

This place did not seem to be suitable.

Feeling the softness of youth, Lin Bei quickly retracted his right hand.

Bai Ranran stood up with a red face. She knew that Lin Bei didn’t do it on purpose, so she didn’t say it out loud.

After all, the two of them might be the ones embarrassed by her words.

“Is Whitey’s perception especially sharp?”

Bai Ranran changed the topic.

Lin Bei nodded.

Only then did Bai Ranran look thoughtfully at Whitey on Lin Bei’s shoulder.

“No wonder…”

“No wonder what?”

“No wonder you left first. Whitey must have sensed something. That’s why you wanted to report to Teacher Du.”

“Hm… Since you guessed it, why didn’t you tell them?”

“So what if I tell them? If they don’t believe you, will they believe me? Besides… with Sister Qin Yue around, nothing big should happen.”

After Bai Ranran said that, the way Lin Bei looked at her changed.

She is a smart woman.

Lin Bei thought.

However, at this moment, an angry beast roar suddenly broke the silence of the Sea Moon Forest.
