This place was no longer safe to stay in.
There were monsters and humans who could see monsters. It was truly annoying.
This place was really too annoying!
Wenwen had never been in such a sorry state before.
It had always been surrounded by people, taking endless delight in watching others make fools of themselves.
Now, it was the one fleeing in panic.
It did not like it one bit.
Not one bit!
Just as Wenwen could not help baring its teeth in a grin, every nerve in its body suddenly tensed.
But it was already too late.
A pair of claws like reinforced concrete seized its body.
It looked up. Darkness filled its vision.
It could not see the full appearance of the monster holding it at all.
It was just so terrifying.
This monster was terrifying.
It trembled from head to toe. The other's overwhelming pressure seeped into its bones and blood, gripping its mind.
It could barely breathe.
It looked as though it was about to faint.
Then it heard, "Gǔdiāo, relax. You're about to scare it to death."
Gǔdiāo? It?
That seemed to be the human's voice.
What was he saying?
Several traces of confusion appeared on Wenwen's face.
Then the slight loosening of the pressure on its body left it stunned.
Huh?!
After saying that, Xiao Xiao turned his gaze to the astonished monster before him.
Joy clearly shone from its eyes, yet it stubbornly kept its expression taut.
Xiao Xiao could not help smiling. "Quǎnlì."
"Long time no see."
"Mm, I suppose it hasn't actually been that long."
"Looks like we're quite fated to meet."
"What? Don't you recognize me anymore?"
Seeing that the monster remained silent, Xiao Xiao curved his eyes into a smile. "Really? I'm so hurt."
