The Soldier King Becomes a Useless Little Girl

Chapter 247: Sneaky Stalking

Xin Lin kicked the Overlord Egg flying, then devoted all her attention to the Dan Wood Furnace.

Dawn was breaking, and if the Feng Xi Braised Pork wasn’t finished soon, she would have to leave for the Martial Arts Examination and it would be too late.

Only after hearing Ma Jingtian’s screams did Xin Lin react.

Looking up, she saw a gray shadow flying in.

Xin Lin knew with her toes that it was the Overlord Egg.

"Stop!"

The Overlord Egg froze in mid-air as if hit by an immobilization charm.

(I am a good egg, I listen to Mommy.)

"What kind of monster is this?"

Ma Jingtian came storming in, cursing, and jumped when he saw the egg.

Drip-drop—

When Xin Lin and Ma Jingtian focused, they saw a trail of drool dropping from the Overlord Egg’s mouth.

（(¯﹃¯)）

"..."

"..."

At that moment, a tantalizing aroma wafted out from the Dan Wood Furnace.

The scent made Ma Jingtian forget his pain for a moment and his stomach growled fiercely.

"What’s in your wood stove, so fragrant that it’s lured out the worm in my belly?"

Ma Jingtian clicked his tongue in wonder.

"Spiritual Food."

Xin Lin sniffed and concluded that the One-star Spiritual Delicacy was ready.

Time was running out, she had to hurry to North Square for the Martial Arts Examination.

With that, she dashed out like the wind.

Spiritual Food?

"Wait, girl, did you actually make Spiritual Food?"

Ma Jingtian was astonished.

That was too fantastical.

Last night she could only make "poison," and now she became a Spiritual Delicacy Master overnight?

Then again, that Spiritual Food really smelled heavenly, even more so than what he had at Zhenxiu Restaurant.

Savoring the thought, Ma Jingtian suddenly felt a sharp pain in his hand.

Only then did he remember that he had been injured, and he had yet to settle the score with that gray egg.

Ma Jingtian turned around, only to find the gray egg was gone?!

Xin Lin and Little Xinzhuo left the Water Wraith Gang’s vicinity, and to prevent the Spiritual Food from being discovered, Xin Lin wrapped the Dan Wood Furnace tightly.

"Sister, did I hear Ma Gang Leader screaming just now?"

Little Xinzhuo asked curiously.

Ma Gang Leader screaming?

She had no idea.

Xin Lin had no time to care about that, as a rustling noise came from behind her.

Xin Lin’s eyelids twitched.

"Sister! Someone is following us!"

Little Xinzhuo was quick to react, and as he turned around,

a gray shadow swooshed and jumped behind a nearby rock.

(I’m hiding, I’m hiding, you can’t see me)

"..."

"..."

The rock was only half the size of the Overlord Egg.

Half of the Overlord Egg’s body was obviously sticking out.

A sense of helplessness rose spontaneously.

Xin Lin covered her forehead.

"Ah Zhuo, you go ahead to the North Square to register, I’ll be there shortly."

Xin Lin blocked Little Xinzhuo’s curious gaze.

Little Xinzhuo, having seen much of the world, realized that this egg was not ordinary.

Obediently, he left first.

Xin Lin took a deep breath, suppressing her anger, and walked over to the rock.

(Can’t see me, can’t see me, Mommy definitely can’t see me)

The Overlord Egg wriggled, trying desperately to hide its "enormous" body behind the rock.

The corner of Xin Lin’s mouth twitched, she thought to kick the persistent egg away again, but as she lifted her foot, she hesitated.

On the shell of the Overlord Egg were the cracks left from her punch the night before.

"I’ll endure, I shall endure, it’s still just an egg."

Xin Lin silently recalled Gui Hu’s words.

"Why are you following me?"

The deed was done; Xin Lin had no choice but to accept it since it was her Spiritual Beast.

(Eat eat eat~)

The Overlord Egg dripped drool again, forming a large puddle.
