Chapter 12 Betting

Thinking about what he was about to say, Bai Mingchen's expression turned slightly unnatural.

He coughed lightly and explained, "When I was enlightened, I had already lived for fifty years. In some ways, I am actually the same age as Qingzhi and the others."

"The same size?" Sang Tian drawled, her gaze drifting to the man's lower body. "Which aspect do you mean?"

As soon as she said it, Sang Tian realized that the big yellow girl inside her had been released, and she quickly explained how she was trying to salvage her image.

"Age is not important to me. In my eyes, you are all the same. Besides, we will get divorced in a year, so you don't need to care about my thoughts."

Sang Tian's words indirectly reminded Bai Mingchen that yes, they were going to get a divorce.

Why would I suddenly care about something like this?

“I didn’t care about your opinion, but the way you look at me always seems to be looking at an old person, which is really irritating.”

Sang Tian's polite smile froze and then disappeared.

When did her eyes become able to reflect so much?
"It's a misunderstanding, it must be a misunderstanding. I'm a kind-hearted person, so I see kindness in everything." She explained with a laugh, but in reality, cold sweat was already breaking out on her back.

Bai Mingchen sneered, "It had better."

At lunchtime, while everyone was still present, Sang Tian created a group chat for a few people before eating, naming it "Whoever doesn't stay by your side is a grandson."

[Bi Jingyan]: That would be best, I don't want to have another granddaughter a year from now.

【Wu Lanyuan】: If we hadn't divorced, would Xingduan have acknowledged our grandfather-granddaughter relationship?

[Bai Mingchen]: Naïve.

[Li Su]: +1
【Qingzhi】: Wulanyuan, don't say anything unlucky.

Sang Tian turned off all group messages with one click, saying, "We can communicate in this group if we need anything in the future."

"While you're all here, I have an announcement to make. I bought passes for Rai Island three days from now last night. We'll be staying on the island for three days, so remember to pack your bags."

Last night, she went from experiencing shoulder and back pain after shooting a dozen or so times to finding the right technique and being able to shoot thirty times in a row without any problem.

With two more days of intensive training, Sang Tian was confident that at least the five of them could guarantee her safety.

"I remember there was something on Thunder Island?"

Li Su is like an encyclopedia, providing answers immediately: "Mutant electric eels, as well as electric rays and electric catfish, all release high-voltage electricity."

Sang Tian frowned uncomfortably, "It's okay, I'll get through it."

"What kind of difficulty is this? I'll catch two in a few days as backup. If there's a power outage, I'll whip them a couple of times and use them as generators."

Bi Jingyan ate his meal calmly, his tone relaxed, as if he did this often.

Sang Tian buried her head in her food, silently trying to mentally prepare herself. She had even managed to twist the head of a zombie king before, so what was a mere electric eel?
-
Having mastered the technique of shooting arrows, Sang Tian was considered a beginner. In addition, she had learned a lot of physical training in her previous life, so she made rapid progress in just two days.

Although it hasn't reached the point of being able to hit every shot, the accuracy rate has increased to about 80%.

On the morning of the day of departure, Sang Tian changed into a fitted black combat uniform, which was completely different from her usual style, and the water she prepared was all spiritual spring water.

Sang Tian stood at the top of the stairs and saw five people sitting on the sofa, all with broad shoulders and narrow waists, who hadn't prepared anything.

At first glance, all you can see are her long legs.

"Are you getting ready for a spring outing?" Bi Jingyan raised an eyebrow, looking at Sang Tian who was fully armed, and teased her.

Sang Tian looked down at herself: backpack, combat uniform, and portable flashlight.

Compared to them, I was indeed overdoing it.

"How can I compare to you? I'm a D-rank."

"He's quite proud of it."

Sang Tian's face fell, she was unhappy, "Even S-rank Shen Jinxi had to borrow the Flame Bow from Bai Mingchen to go to Thunder Island, it's normal for me to do this, okay?"

The other four beastmen's gazes were fixed on Bai Mingchen.

"I didn't lend it," Bai Mingchen said, disclaiming any connection. Li Su stood up and walked to Sang Tian's side. "Show me your pass."

Sang Tian took out the pass from the cloud. It looked like a cassette tape. The pass was blue and had the three large characters "Pass" on it.

“I remember that you females can store things in the Cloud Realm, depending on your mental strength. The higher your mental strength, the wider the area. Yours shouldn’t be less than one square meter.”

Sang Tian belatedly realized that she had fallen out of the cloud and discovered that the cloud space had been filled with clothes by the original owner...

If I bring it up now, I'll definitely be laughed at.

"No need, I like a sense of ritual," she stubbornly insisted.

Li Su glanced at her, but chose not to expose her. "It can be activated and used now."

Sang Tian took the pass and first verified the female master's identity. Then, the pass disappeared under her gaze, and a 48-hour countdown appeared on her arm.

How should we get there?

Her beast husbands are found on land, sea, and air; does she travel by riding them?

“Anyway, they’re not riding us there.” Bai Mingchen was defeated by Sang Tian’s unconventional thinking. He reminded her, “Open the door and go out to take a look.”

The original owner had no memory of visiting the Floating Islands, so she naturally didn't know how to get there.

After listening to Bai Mingchen's words, Sang Tian went to the door and opened it.

The view outside has changed.

Outside, dark clouds covered the sky, and lightning struck every ten seconds on average. The clouds shimmered with a dark light, making people hesitate to approach.

Sang Tian was caught off guard by the sudden turn of events; it was too late for her to turn back.

Five beastmen blocked her way, leaving her with no choice but to move forward.

Sang Tian took a deep breath and stepped onto Thunder Island.

The so-called Thunder Island is just a small island with black seawater. The black sea is dotted with twinkling stars, which is both eerie and somewhat beautiful.

Seeing her lost in thought, Li Su asked her, "Is it pretty?"

"It's beautiful. The sea looks just like the stars in the night sky."

"The bright lights you see are all from electric eels and catfish that release high voltage electricity. Each one releases at least 750V, and the S-class ones seem to release 1500V."

As per Xingduan's request, she needs to dive into the ocean to kill 20 electric eels and obtain the rare blue crystal ore inside an A-grade electric eel.

Sang Tian was dumbfounded. How could she possibly complete this? Not only was everything submerged in water, but water also conducts electricity!

"Do you still think it looks good?" Bi Jingyan mocked from the side, a wicked smile on his face.

"Enough nonsense. She can't even complete the basic mission in two days by herself." After saying that, Wu Lanyuan produced a black Mongolian scimitar in his hand.

Wu Lanyuan stepped forward, only half a meter away from the sea. He turned around and said, "Come here."

Sang Tian obediently walked over, opening her bag and taking out the Flaming Bow, not understanding what Wu Lanyuan was going to do next.

"Focus your attention, look at the sky, not at the sea."

Sang Tian nodded seriously, holding the bow in her right hand.

"Anyone want to bet with me?" Bi Jingyan, always eager for a good show, crossed his arms and looked in the direction of Sang Tian and Wu Lanyuan. "Let's bet on whether she can hit the target on her first try."

Bai Mingchen continued, "What's the stake?"

"Anything from your arsenal."

Qingzhi looked up, her eyes fixed on the woman not far away, and said to Bai Mingchen, "She's here for you."

"Alright, since none of you have what I want anyway, if I lose, you can pick whatever you want. If you each lose, you'll each give me 200,000 spirit crystals."

Bai Mingchen readily agreed to the bet.
