My Master Disconnected Yet Again

Panda Novel

Lonemoon frowned and asked, “What are you? Why do you want to attack us?”

The tree’s leaves trembled. A moment later, it sent rage into Lonemoon’s consciousness once again. After thinking for a moment, Lonemoon finally understood what it was saying. “Bad man! You want to catch Boss! I won’t allow it! Chase away!”

“What’s your boss like?” Lonemoon asked in shock. Could it be that its boss really was the spirit seed? Was the spirit seed still in the forest?

The little tree stopped sending anymore emotions and messages over to Lonemoon’s consciousness, so Lonemoon had no choice but to retract his spell and send the little tree back down. The forest below saw that the little tree was returning and burst into action once again. New batches of fruits were just about to be delivered to where they were.

Lonemoon pursed his lips and let out a suppressive force that shook all of them. It was a pity that the standard of the trees’ consciousness was not high. Lonemoon was not able to seek the spirit seed’s location from them. Thus, using both his hands, he conjured an array that spread out across the entire territory.

Since he could not ask them, he would have to look for it himself!

The next moment, a huge exploration array appeared in the sky. It was a white array that headed straight for the forest of trees. It spread out in the direction that the remnant aura was. Within seconds, it garnered a response.

“Over there!” Lonemoon pointed toward his right and turned to fly in that direction.

Chef quickly followed suit, carrying Shen Ying back onto his sword on the way.

When Lonemoon arrived, he saw that there was a pit in the middle of the forest. It looked like someone had gone there and dug about four or five metres into the ground. Inside the pit, there were all sorts of trees growing. Their leaves were dense, as if concealing something within.

Lonemoon frowned. This was a tad obvious, wasn’t it? Just as he was about to enter the pit, he found that the trees he had shocked earlier were now extending their branches toward the pit, forming a web of branches on top of it to stop him from entering

Alright, he did not need to locate the spirit seed now.

Lonemoon pursed his lips and summoned his spirit sword. A sharp gust of sword Qi headed straight down the pit that the trees were trying to cover up. Each time it hit the branches, the trees above shivered and retracted their branches.

Lonemoon flew downward. As he walked deeper and deeper into the pit, the trees above began to panic. They cut off the fruits on their heads and let them roll into the pit after Lonemoon. The other trees that stood by followed suit, until the pit became filled with their fruits.

Lonemon: “…” Do you really think your fruits are that powerful? Did they think he would not be able to see past them!

The master and disciples’ eyes lit up behind him.

Hey, that’s enough from the both of you! Did you not pick enough fruits earlier!

Lonemoon glared at them, but was otherwise too lazy to do anything about it. He raised his hand and used a single spell to sweep all of the fruits out of the pit, together with the withered leaves and branches at the bottom.

Amongst the fruits, something eye-catchingly green flew up as well. That was it! He flicked his wrist and caused the green object to fly toward him. Then, with another flick of the wrist, all of the fruits flew toward Shen Ying and landed in front of her.

“Chef, keep the stock!” Shen Ying exclaimed, eyes twinkling. She began to pick the fruits up in her hands.

Lonemoon looked in front at the object he captured using his spell. It was now waving its leaves, trying to escape. The top of this object was long and thin, and green in colour. Its lower half was pure white. It looked just like a…

“Spring onion?” The corner of his lip twitched.

“No!” Chef stood up after picking up all the fruits. Very seriously, he corrected, “It’s a garlic!” He was expert at identifying vegetables.

Lonemoon frowned. “Can even garlics become demons these days?” These demons were too casual about their form, weren’t they?

“Let me go! Let me go!” The garlic began to cry out in a sharp voice.

Hey, this garlic can talk!

“Shen Ying.” Lonemoon turned to face a certain foodie. “Don’t tell me this is the spirit seed?” This was a freaking spirit seed in foodie world, wasn’t it?!

“It’s not.” Shen Ying shook her head. “I think it’s under the influence of the spirit seed, though.”

For some reason, Lonemoon heaved a sigh of relief.

“You baddies! Let me go!” The garlic demon struggled for its life, but realised that it could not free itself from Lonemoon’s spell. Thus, it began to wave its leaves madly and shout, “Bastard! Baddie! You caught my boss and now you want to catch me too! Just wait, I… I…”

The garlic seemed to be panicking. It raised up its white portion stalk and peeled off the surface layer, revealing the inner white portions of its own body. “I’ll spice you to death!” Then, it charged toward their eyes.

Lonemon: “…”

Yi Qing: “…”

Shen Ying: “…”

Heh heh, this really was… a scary threat.

o(╯□╰)o

Lonemoon pursed his lips and pushed the garlic demon slightly further away from them. “Talk, little garlic demon, who is this boss you speak of?”

“Who’s a little garlic! I’m a huge garlic!” The garlic demon tutted. It waved its leaves and said, “I’m really spicy! You ugly man, if you know what’s good for you, you would let me go immediately. Otherwise, you’ll definitely regret it!”

“…” My foot! Who was it calling ugly! Did these vegetation demons graduate from the same school as Radish did? This garlic could try to insult Lonemoon again if he didn’t believe that Lonemoon would hand it over to Chef to be fried in a heartbeat.

“You’re baddies who bully Boss!” The garlic demon continued to struggle and shout, as if not realising that it was in grave danger. It continued to threaten Lonemoon. “Just wait and see, when I’m a little bigger, I will come out and rescue Boss!”

“Oh?” Lonemoon’s eyes narrowed. His voice leaking with sarcasm, he said, “You, a weak little demon? You want to rescue your boss? Do you even know where it is?”

“Hmph!” The garlic tutted and waved its leaves to point at a volcano not far away. “Don’t think I don’t know this. I heard the little trees on the volcano discussing this. You’ve captured Boss and brought it onto Flame Mountain! Just wait and see. Wait until I train myself so that I’m no longer afraid of fire. I’ll definitely rescue it. Don’t think that you can capture Boss just like that. You ugly creatures don’t deserve to even serve Boss!”

Flame Mountain!

Lonemoon and Yi Qing exchanged a meaningful look, then turned to see the Flame Mountain not far away, that spewed flames and sparks from time to time. So the spiirt seed was there? It was no wonder that they could not sense its presence.

“Go! To the volcano!” Lonemoon mounted his flying sword.

“Wait!” Yi Qing suddenly pulled him back and shook his head while looking at the sky. “Let’s eat!” If he didn’t start cooking now, they would miss their meal. Nothing was more important than Master.

Lonemon: “…”

Why couldn’t they be this punctual about everything else?!

It was indeed getting later, however, and the spirit seed would not be able to escape if it were really in the volcano. Lonemoon looked down at the garlic demon and narrowed his eyes. Nodding, he said, “We can eat! But I want to eat garlic prawns, garlic crabs, garlic white meat, garlic flowers, garlic white explosive beasts…”

Yi Qing: “…”

Shen Ying: “…”

The garlic demon: “…”

Are you a demon?
