"Ouch... Where is this place, and why am I here?"
Hu Youling's head throbbed. That guy had no consideration for tender beauty, striking her so hard. She'd be single forever...
"What was that black chain? That aura... it's definitely not ordinary. With me involved with something like that, who knows what the future holds."
Her consciousness slowly returned, and she took in her surroundings. It was a prison cell with a toilet partitioned off, a bed that looked very hard, and a lamp.
"Is that pervert trying to keep me as a mistress? This place is too basic! If he wants to keep me, he should at least have a five-star hotel setup!"
Having familiarized herself with the cell's layout, she looked outside. In the corridor, two corpses were piled up.
One was a large rooster with its neck slit, and the other was a giant turtle whose body was largely corroded, leaving only its shell intact.
"That's... the Qi Ling Mountain Tyrant Rooster and Twin Fiends!"
She also lived in Qi Ling Mountain and naturally knew the reputation of the Tyrant Rooster and Twin Fiends. Though their names were a bit silly and their personalities problematic, their strength was undeniable.
One-on-one, she was only evenly matched with one of them. But when they fought together, their combined effect was greater than the sum of their parts, and she was no match for them.
Among the low-level monsters in Qi Ling Mountain, these two had some notoriety. They always did everything together, so how could that pervert have killed both of them by himself?
Before, Hu Youling felt that Wen Wen had won their fight through sneak attacks and considered it an unfair victory. Now, she felt fortunate not to have ended up like them.
"At least you died together."
Then, she looked at the adjacent cells. In the cell next to hers, a giant oak tree was imprisoned, something she hadn't seen before, but likely some kind of tree demon.
Opposite the oak tree was a scavenger demon that looked brain-dead, its eyes vacant, perpetually standing at attention. Why not sit down for a bit?
There was also a weak ghost, negligible, no need to look.
Finally, there was a rather disheveled female vampire. Like them, vampires were descendants of creatures from the ancient world, one of the largest monster species surviving in the real world.
But... did that female vampire look a bit familiar to her?
"Excuse me, is this the place where the Hunter Association detains monsters? I heard that the Hunter Association only detains rare monsters. What qualifications do an ordinary fox demon like me have to be locked up here?"
Hu Youling spoke in a sweet, coquettish voice. Regardless of whether it was a human or a ghost, they usually couldn't dislike her voice.
But as soon as she finished speaking, she felt a hostile gaze directed at her from the female vampire's cell!
"Hi, sister, we are both fallen souls, there's no need to look at me so hostilely." Hu Youling said pitifully to Tao Qingqing.
Hu Youling had been unconscious and lying on her back, facing away from Tao Qingqing. Now that she stood up, Tao Qingqing recognized her, snorted, and spat out two words: "Bitch!"
"Oh, I didn't recognize you until you spoke. It's you, the cold-blooded one without her period. I didn't expect you to be captured here too." Hu Youling's demeanor changed from pitiful to aggressive, provoking Tao Qingqing.
As it happened, the two of them had met before.
A few years ago, when Tao Qingqing was first turned into a vampire, her bloodlust was unbearable. Fearing exposure if she randomly fed on blood, she targeted her boyfriend who lived alone.
Besides her, that guy had a very small social circle, so his sudden disappearance wouldn't attract attention.
However, when she arrived at her boyfriend's residence, she found him intimately engaged with Hu Youling, his vital essence drained by Hu Youling, leaving his blood devoid of nourishment.
Thus, fueled by jealousy and rage, Tao Qingqing immediately fought with Hu Youling. But she had only recently become a vampire and wasn't very strong, thus no match for Hu Youling.
She was easily subdued by Hu Youling, who then subjected her to some "embarrassing" acts before letting her go.
And so, the feud between the two female monsters began.
"You deserve to be captured here, you bitch. That guy is a pervert, and you won't have it easy in the future." Enemies meeting with burning eyes, Tao Qingqing taunted.
"I'm quite looking forward to what he'll do to me." Hu Youling's body quivered, her hands caressing herself as she said with a blush, "Speaking of which, sister, you've been locked up for so long, you must have been well-trained, right?"
As the two women exchanged taunts, the atmosphere in the cells became tense. The ghost Qin Shuang floated in mid-air, grinning happily. Watching verbal fights like this was quite amusing.
The Whispering Tree Demon's branches twitched, and it mimicked Wen Wen's voice, saying:
"There are only a few of us monsters here, we should be harmonious, not quarrel. Let's unite against the great demon Wen Wen..."
"Get lost!" both women yelled at the Whispering Tree Demon.
The Whispering Tree Demon's branches retracted, and its leaves drooped. It was verbally shut down.
...
When Wen Wen entered the containment facility, he noticed the atmosphere in the cells was a bit off. Normally, he was the absolute center of attention in this place. Why was no monster paying him any attention today?
"Hmm... what's wrong with you guys?"
The female vampire didn't turn her head but pointed at Hu Youling's cell, Disaster-0005, saying, "Why does her cell have a toilet and a bed, while mine has nothing?"
Wen Wen scratched his head. "You're a vampire, sleeping anywhere doesn't affect you, and you don't need to excrete either..."
"I want it too!" the female vampire insisted. Sudan Novel Network
"I can't give you what I don't have," Wen Wen said awkwardly. This woman usually ignored him. Why was she being so difficult today?
"If you can't change it, give her this so she can eat with it!"
Tao Qingqing turned around and handed Wen Wen a pile of fragments, the dog bowls she had used for eating before.
"This is already broken like this..." Wen Wen said with some difficulty.
"It can still be used if glued together!" Tao Qingqing said coldly.
Wen Wen ignored the ranting Tao Qingqing and walked to Hu Youling's cell. He looked at the setup inside. Although he didn't understand the feud between the two women, he could vaguely grasp the situation.
His cell only had bars and a cold floor, while someone else's cell had a warm bed and a bathroom. Anyone would feel unbalanced.
But Wen Wen couldn't do anything about it. He didn't have the authority to change the cell's layout, so he was helpless.
He seemed to recall that he would gain management authority over the prison later. He'd address it then.
