Chapter 171-Big Sisters Can’t Squeeze

Vicky was stunned. “Why?”

“When I see people who are dispirited, with thoughts of giving up on life, I just want to give them a punch, to help them remember the bitterness and sweetness of this world.”

Bai Yue Zero grasped Vicky’s hand, her fair fist tightening, aiming at that flawless, beautiful face.

Then she lightly punched her.

“After saying all that, weren’t you just trying to praise how amazing I am, and then admit that you’re a useless loser?” Bai Yue Zero said, “So what now? Is that it? After all that, you think you can just hand everything over to me, then curl up in a corner and watch me heal your mother, then watch your mother save the kingdom, and finally regret everything you’ve done?”

“I…” Vicky hesitated slightly. “That’s not what I meant…”

“That’s exactly what you mean.” Bai Yue Zero said seriously, “If you feel guilty towards Aya and Shixiela, then go apologize to them yourself. If you regret helping the Men in Black and General Taima, then go defeat them and redeem yourself.”

“What good does it do to just hate yourself? That’s not atonement, at best you’re just running away.

“If you really regret it, then pull yourself together, help me finish my class change, and then let’s go back to the royal capital, drag out all the Men in Black and General Taima, and give them a good beating!”

Listening to Bai Yue Zero’s scolding, Vicky hung her head, silent for a long time.

In the end, she nodded heavily, wet hair plastered to her neck, yet it didn’t look pitiful—there was only ferocity and resolve.

“You’re right, Priest Hero, just wallowing in regret is useless. That’s just running in place.”

She forced herself up, dragging her soaked white dress as she climbed ashore, standing proudly, her snow-white, creamy skin pressed against the wet fabric, shining with a seductive crescent glow.

“Thank you, Priest Hero.” Vicky looked at her sincerely. “I’ve figured things out.”

Bai Yue Zero looked at Vicky’s beautifully curved figure and blinked.

“If you call me ‘Priest Hero’ again, I’ll give you another punch.” “Then what should I call you?”

“Just call me ‘Little Bai’.”

Bai Yue Zero got up and went ashore. She couldn’t smell any trace of blood on Vicky anymore; the whole person was like a fresh rose blossoming after the rain.

At that moment, Zijing Yue came running over in excitement. “Little Bai, the arrow reacted! The Succubus Queen’s inheritance is this way!”

Zijing Yue’s arrow was trembling slightly in her hand, pointing downriver.

Bai Yue Zero nodded. “Then let’s follow the river downstream.”

Heading downstream meant going deeper into the underground of the Panlong Mountains. She remembered that the dragon’s tomb was underground as well. They’d have to use explosives by the riverside to blast open a huge hole, enter the underground cavern, fight monsters all the way, cross a giant white bone bridge into the tomb area, then fight even more monsters, and finally defeat the boss—the Bone Dragon inside.

The group picked up the torches the Men in Black had dropped earlier and continued down along the river.

This cave was sometimes spacious, sometimes narrow—sometimes so tight you could only pass sideways.

Like now, a narrow stone crevice appeared before them, with the river rushing noisily beneath the rocks just below.

Lie Lie went first, her soft body wrapped in dragon scales barely squeezing past the rocks, causing a faint blush to creep across her face.

“Remember to press your upper body tighter, or it’ll be hard to get through!” Lie Lie called out from the other side.

Vicky followed closely behind, first pressing down her fair softness with both hands, then inching into the crack bit by bit, her body forced to feel the hardness and chill of the rock walls, but she managed to squeeze through in the end.

Zijing Yue tried as well, but no matter how hard she pressed, she was just a little too big and simply couldn’t get through.

“Haa… Looks like it’s hopeless for me.” Zijing Yue said helplessly.

Bai Yue Zero glanced at Zijing Yue’s mature, curvy chest and hips in profile, lost in thought.

It seemed that big sisters with more mature figures than girls, like Zijing Yue, simply couldn’t squeeze through this narrow crevice. By that logic, Aya and Silver Fang definitely wouldn’t fit, and as for Ming Die, Xisitana, and Qing Jin’s level, there was no hope at all…

“Little Bai, do you think you can make it?” Zijing Yue called back.

Bai Yue Zero shook her head. “It’s fine, I’ll just swim with you.”

“The water’s too dangerous, let me hold you?”

“Um, alright…”

...

Letting Zijing Yue hold her in her arms, Bai Yue Zero felt the abundant softness and sighed in contentment.

Big sisters really are the best...

But now that she thought about it, why did Zijing Yue seem so familiar?

The two dove into the water together, the icy current breaking Bai Yue Zero’s train of thought.

Zijing Yue held her and swam forward, her movements not exactly graceful, but very steady.

Bai Yue Zero opened her eyes underwater and glanced at the riverbed, only to see that, for some reason, there were bones scattered about, hollow eye sockets seemingly staring right at them.

Where did all these bones come from…? Bai Yue Zero frowned in thought.

Suddenly, a skeletal hand grabbed her ankle, as if to drag her away from Zijing Yue.

Startled, Bai Yue Zero looked back, and saw a skeleton had somehow emerged from the riverbed, ghostly blue flames burning in its eye sockets, as if to pull her into the depths of death.

[Name: Skeleton Soldier]

[Race: Undead]

[Level: 10]

[Description: Soldiers who died on the battlefield, their corpses left long in dark, icy places, eventually corrupted by undead energy and turned into skeleton soldiers.]

[Note: Remember to stick torches into the mine when you go down! Skeletons spawn where there’s no light!]

Meanwhile, as she swam forward, Zijing Yue sensed something was wrong and instinctively turned to look back—only to be startled as well.

“Mm!”

A huge bubble escaped her lips as more and more bones began to gather, forming skeleton soldiers who brandished their bony arms at them.

Bai Yue Zero calmly raised her holy staff, shattered the skeletal hand grabbing her ankle with a single blow, broke free from Zijing Yue’s embrace, and in turn grabbed the big sister and swam forward with all her might.

“Puhah!”

The two burst to the surface, and Zijing Yue scrambled ashore, pointing at the river below in shock. “Underwater… There are skeletons down there!”

“Skeletons?” Lie Lie gave her a sidelong glance. “You’re a succubus, why are you scared of such low-level monsters?”

“I know they’re low-level, but I just hate them,” Zijing Yue said, her face pale. “I’m terrified of things like that. I can’t even play horror games.”

Just then, the skeletons surfaced one after another, clawing their way toward the shore.

“So it’s just a bunch of level 10 trash.” Lie Lie volunteered to stand in front of everyone, little tongues of flame licking from her lips. “No need for anyone else to act, just leave this to me!”

Her dragon tail arched, and a searing fireball erupted, dyeing the whole river red.

Boom!

Under the dragon’s blaze, the skeletons were instantly blasted back into the river, never to surface again.

Lie Lie twisted her dragon tail proudly. “Done!”

The group continued onward, but after walking only a short distance, they heard a tremor behind them, as if something massive was rolling their way.

Bai Yue Zero stopped, looking back into the darkness, puzzled. “What’s that?”

With the ground shaking, the rumbling grew louder and louder.

A giant sphere made of countless bones suddenly appeared, rolling at terrifying speed toward the group like a falling meteor, enough to crush anything in its path to dust!

“Run!”
