Lost Without Direction
Ling Ling pouted and huffed in dissatisfaction! Then, somewhat embarrassed, she said, "We've been walking in the desert for so long, and your pace has been uneven, so I don't know the exact distance we've covered."
Although she didn't get lost, Ling Ling was indeed a little confused about the exact distance...
"..."
Tang Miao fell silent upon hearing this...
This was quite awkward. Although they were heading in the right direction, it seemed like that was only temporary, right? After all, they were in the middle of a vast desert. Tang Miao couldn't be sure if they were going wrong, and neither could Ling Ling, the little girl...
Seeing that Tang Miao didn't speak, Ling Ling said with some shame, "I'm sorry..."
Ling Ling felt genuinely ashamed. After all, since partnering with Tang Miao, she had always been the one using her brain. However, she had been negligent today. Although it couldn't be entirely blamed on her, shirking responsibility was clearly not Ling Ling's style.
Most importantly, if the two of them get lost in the desert, the outcome will likely be very tragic...
Even Ling Ling couldn't imagine it...
Tang Miao naturally wouldn't blame Ling Ling. Although continuing like this would indeed make it easy to lose one's way, and there was a possibility of starving to death due to lack of food and water... or even dying of thirst...
But Tang Miao wasn't the type to starve or die of thirst.
"It's okay, I'm here for you!" Tang Miao comforted Ling Ling, who looked somewhat dejected.
Seeing that he wasn't angry or blaming her, and even comforted her, Ling Ling felt an overwhelming sense of guilt...
But that guilt vanished instantly upon feeling the claws on her little bottom!
That scumbag is absolutely despicable!
At a time like this, after I've so sincerely apologized and felt so guilty, he still... he still wants to take advantage of me!!
Smack!
Ling Ling swung her little hand towards her bottom, but Tang Miao dodged quickly, resulting in Ling Ling slapping herself with all her might.
I must say, it's quite bouncy... and the sound is really satisfying!
"I wouldn't even bear to hit you, so why are you hitting yourself?" Tang Miao said with a smile.
"Go to hell..."
The feeling of guilt I had just felt vanished instantly, replaced entirely by shame and indignation...
Tang Miao didn't pay any attention. According to Flame Ji's senses, there was indeed a very strong fire element flying ahead!
As a favorite of the fire element, she naturally possesses a very strong perception of such Flame Holy Land.
Therefore, Tang Miao wasn't worried about getting lost or anything like that. Besides, the worst-case scenario was just eating unseasoned Demon Beast meat for a few days. So what?
Before Ling Ling could say anything more, Tang Miao had already taken off.
"What are you doing?" Ling Ling couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
Although she felt they were heading in the right direction, that was just her feeling... Wasting magical energy aimlessly like this was not a wise choice.
"You forgot, Flame Ji is Element Pet, and her perception of fire is extremely powerful. It told me that there is a very strong fire element ahead!" Tang Miao said with a smile.
"So all my guilt just now was for nothing...?" Ling Ling seemed to have forgotten about that, then glared at Tang Miao with dissatisfaction and said, "Being with you for so long is affecting my IQ!"
Ling Ling's oversight was indeed inextricably linked to Tang Miao. After all, if that scoundrel hadn't constantly molested her, this mistake wouldn't have happened.
"It's okay, even if you're a silly little girl, I won't mind."
"Get out..." Ling Ling rolled her eyes at Tang Miao, her eyes full of disdain!
This weirdo, this lolicon, he's getting more and more outrageous... Especially after I started developing, he's practically never acted like a human being!
With Little Flame Ji's senses, Tang Miao continued to fly forward, turning left and right as he searched for his destination.
Clearly, they had indeed gone astray earlier, likely changing direction while navigating the sandstorm created by the Dust Storm Demon Grasshopper. Fortunately, however, they found the correct path again...
This stretch of road was a mixture of black rocks and sand dunes, and along the way, Tang Miao found some Magic Stone that could be sold for money, which he naturally picked up without hesitation.
He never pretends not to see such gifts from nature.
Isn't the point of coming here to get resources and money?
Tang Miao stopped when it got evening. He wasn't in a hurry to continue his journey. As he said before, the little girl was still young and growing; how could she withstand the exhaustion of traveling without sleep?
When the two set up camp, Ling Ling saw the scene before her and was so angry she jumped up and down...
No wonder she was angry; that son of a bitch was unbelievable! He only prepared one tent!!
"Come in and rest, what are you doing?" Tang Miao called out to Ling Ling, seemingly oblivious to the situation.
"Why don't you just die?!" Ling Ling shouted, unable to contain herself any longer.
She was starting to regret it; why had she only remembered to look up information and not prepare any necessary items for going out?
"Don't worry, I won't do anything to you. Come in quickly, so I can protect you tonight." In this desolate wilderness... oh, in this place covered in yellow sand, even if something were to happen, Little Lingling wouldn't seem to have much of a chance to resist.
Tsk tsk tsk...
Another wicked thought crossed Tang Miao's mind, and she gave herself a severe dressing-down!
"I'm getting married!" Ling Ling glared at Tang Miao with an expression that said, "Don't even think about ruining my reputation."
"I'll marry you." Such an adorable little girl, marrying someone else? No way!
"You're such a jerk! Who would want to marry you!"
In this world, besides Asha Ruiya, Ling Ling probably knows the most about Tang Miao's messy affairs.
"Alright, I'm not going to tease you anymore. Come in and rest. I promise I won't touch you." Tang Miao knew when to stop, especially since his little girl was almost crying from anger, so he naturally wouldn't bully her anymore.
After all, if Leng Qing and Old Man Bao found out, they'd probably fight him to the death...
Although Tang Miao was shameless, Ling Ling knew that this bastard still had a tiny bit of rationality. At this moment, she was very grateful that her grandfather and sister were both very strong!
Nighttime, inside the tent.
"You dead pig, you've crossed the line!"
"Get away from me!"
"..."
"Get your pig's trotters away from me!!"
That night, Ling Ling unusually stayed up late... She usually has a normal sleep schedule, but tonight she stayed up until midnight before finally falling asleep.
Tang Miao wouldn't actually do anything; he was just teasing her. After all, Ling Ling is still very young.
How could he possibly hurt such an adorable little girl? If it were any other girl her age, like that little Moth Woman or that vixen, with his ever-present erection, tonight would definitely be a sleepless night for him too...
