"That pink dolphin. Hand her over." Shangguan Bing Xue stretched her arms forward as she said in a deep voice. She looked into Bai Zemin's eyes and said earnestly, "I will take care of her for you."
Bai Zemin unconsciously pulled the little pink dolphin closer to his body, hugging the little creature tightly. The little dolphin gently wiggled in his embrace and her slippery, soft back helped her find a position to her liking again.
The eyes of Shangguan Bing Xue twinkled slightly as she watched the cute movents of the little animal in the embrace of Bai Zemin. She, like most girls in the world, loved cute things and added to the affection Shangguan Bing Xue had for small pet-like animals, the little pink dolphin t all her criteria for a cuddly animal begging to be hugged.
Bai Zemin coughed to clear his throat when he finally ca to his senses and realized that he had misunderstood the reason behind the fiery gaze of the ice princess. But then again, this was not his fault either, after all, this was a side of Shangguan Bing Xue that Bai Zemin didn't know about until now.
He looked at the little pink dolphin that had her eyes closed and then looked at Shangguan Bing Xue, who still held her arms outstretched forward and looked at him as if she was asking him when he was going to hand the little animal over to her.
With a resigned sigh, Bai Zemin loosened his embrace around the little pink dolphin and while holding onto her tiny body with both hands from the sides began to move her towards Shangguan Bing Xue slowly.
Just like in a movie when an incredible scene was about to happen, ti seed to slow down as Shangguan Bing Xue looked at the little dolphin closer and closer to her and her eager gaze revealed that she could not wait to have the dolphin in her embrace.
Possibly sensing the movent around her or perhaps as a consequence of losing the warmth that was surrounding her, the pink dolphin nad Xiao Xiao opened her eyes in slow motion and looked forward while blinking a couple of tis as if she was confused about sothing.
Then, in that strange feeling that everything was moving in slow motion, the sky blue eyes of Shangguan Bing Xue t the deep pink eyes of little Xiao Xiao.
The hands of Shangguan Bing Xue had barely reached out to touch the body of the little pink dolphin when the animal suddenly began to go crazy.
First, the little pink dolphin let out a cry that was not different from a baby's cry and then imdiately opened her mouth and splashed out a jet of cold water.
Of course, with Shangguan Bing Xue standing only half a ter distant, the sudden "attack" of the little pink dolphin caught her off guard and she could not avoid it in any way.
Splash!
The jet of cold water hit the face of Shangguan Bing Xue creating a splashing sound identical to that of a water-filled balloon hitting the ground. The water soaked her beautiful face and forced her to close her eyes as the aftershocks of the "attack" drenched all of her hair and the top of her leather armor.
"..."
The sound of the transparent water droplets running down the curves of her seductive body gently dripping onto the concrete ground was the only thing that could be heard in conjunction with the light sound of the sea breeze.
Shangguan Bing Xue slowly opened her eyes and her gaze t the pink eyes of the little pink dolphin who seed to be looking at her as if she had done sothing evil.
The little pink dolphin let out intangible sounds similar to any other normal dolphin as she squird in Bai Zemin's grip. It sounded as if she was scolding Shangguan Bing Xue or as if she was telling her not to do it again or else she would throw another jet of cold water at her again.
The little creature went so far as to puff out her soft cheeks as if she was showing that she had more where the previous one ca from.
Bai Zemin looked at Shangguan Bing Xue's completely wet face and noticing her dumbfounded look, sothing inside him finally burst.
"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"
For the first ti since the apocalypse broke out two months and a week ago, Bai Zemin laughed out loud without worrying at all that it was anything other than releasing all the urge to laugh that overwheld him inside. While it might not be that long compared to Shangguan Bing Xue, it was true that Bai Zemin also could not rember precisely when the last ti soone or sothing had made him laugh the way he was laughing right now.
His laughter was carried away by the winds blowing from different directions, but before it could get far enough away, another new one ca.
The little pink dolphin squird in Bai Zemin's grip and let out more cute sounds as she turned her head slightly and stared at him.
Weirdly and even though he did not understand what Xiao Xiao was saying to him, Bai Zemin sohow felt that he could understand what she wanted him to do. So, he retracted his arms, and with the little pink dolphin in his hands, he hugged her close to his chest again, much to the delight of the little animal who soon closed her eyes again as if relieved after returning ho after a long and dangerous trip.
Shangguan Bing Xue stared at Bai Zemin as drops of water fell down her face. She seed to be waiting for him to stop laughing and when he finally stopped she slowly said, "Funny?"
Between laughter and tears, Bai Zemin didn't hesitate to nod with a big smile, "I'm sorry, Bing Xue. But I couldn't help it. It was stronger than ."
"Yeah... So I see." Shangguan Bing Xue said as she nodded and looked at the little pink dolphin resentfully.
"This treacherous little beast really doesn't know what's good." Shangguan Bing Xue snorted and without giving the little dolphin another glance pointed at the pile of Soul Stones beside her, "What are we going to do with these?"
"So you're overlooking what just happened?" Bai Zemin said with a teasing smile.
"What are we going to do with these?"
"You got mad at the little dolphin just because she splashed a jet of water in your face?"
"What are we going to do with these?"
"Maybe it's because the little dolphin is female and I'm male?"
"... Do you want to die?"
...
As they chatted, mainly with Bai Zemin joking about what had happened to Shangguan Bing Xue, he waved his right hand and easily absorbed all the Soul Stones inside his spatial storage ring.
The Soul Stones, despite being in the millions, were so small that they only took up 1/3 of the total space in the ring. With the remaining 2/3, Bai Zemin had no problem storing the corpses of several thousand beasts before he had no choice but to stop.
After filling his ring to the brim, Bai Zemin walked towards Shangguan Bing Xue and took off his ring as he said, "Bing Xue, I will give you my storage ring to carry these things to the base. Leave 1,000,000 Soul Stones in the ring and the rest leave it in the vault. As for the beast corpses, take them all."
"Alright, I'll be back as soon as I can." Shangguan Bing Xue nodded calmly, now completely dry.
Despite what had happened, Shangguan Bing Xue occasionally stole glances at the little pink dolphin. Her blue eyes shone with tenderness but at the sa ti with hatred; complex emotions that battled in her heart.
Bai Zemin tried his best to restrain the urge to laugh again as it was really funny to see the proud and arrogant Shangguan Bing Xue being scolded by a small dolphin less than half a ter long that was not unlike a baby.
He cut the blood connection with his storage ring and handed it to Shangguan Bing Xue, explaining how it worked. Then, she nodded without saying a word and after giving one last glance at the little pink dolphin sleeping in his arms, she turned into a silver shadow that disappeared in a southerly direction seconds later.
Once Shangguan Bing Xue left to free up space in the storage ring, Bai Zemin lifted the little pink dolphin to the level of his face to take a closer look.
The little dolphin Xiao Xiao seed to notice sothing and slowly opened her two beautiful eyes. The little creature blinked a couple of tis and looked around as if searching for soone, but finding no one she nodded as if satisfied with sothing before looking back at Bai Zemin with her clear eyes.
Bai Zemin didn't know whether to laugh or cry seeing the attitude of the little beast in his arms.
"Xiao Xiao, could it be that you don't like Bing Xue?"
"Pupu..." Xiao Xiao made so cute but incomprehensible sounds in reply to Bai Zemin's question.
