My Master Disconnected Yet Again Chapter 204

"Ugly, it's you again!" That was the same voice again . When the few of them got to the top of the eddy, those below seemed to notice something . Compared to the pranking tone they heard earlier, this voice was much angrier . A moment later, a water column charged toward Ying Zhi . "You liar how dare you come any closer!"

Ying Zhi seemed to be used to this already . He raised a hand and a defensive array formed, blocking off the water column . Unfortunately, that was not the end of it . On top of the seabed, a wave took the shape of a huge fishtail . One by one, the waves started to attack them .

"Get lost, you liar!"

The immortals who were on top earlier landed on the water one by one . Ying Zhi looked at them apologetically . Then, he led the group back by a few metres . The waves stopped .

"Celestial Emperor Ying Zhi, why is the Cloud Beast doing this?" Chen Ge asked . It was obvious that the attacks were targeted at Ying Zhi . Yet, the Cloud Beast was supposed to be his contracted immortal beast . It should not be attacking him like that .

"Well…" Ying Zhi's expression changed . He looked like he did not know what to say . After awhile, he spoke again, "It's a misunderstanding . " He subconsciously glanced at Lan Hua . In his eyes, there was a hint of blame mixed with indignation . Lan Hua's goosebumps rose when he felt Ying Zhi's gaze .

"I'll say it!" Lan Yu could not help but speak up . He sighed and then told the story of Ying Zhi and the Cloud Beast .

The Cloud Sea was different from all the other six continents and three seas . It had a special kind of environment, so that anyone who became the Celestial Emperor of the Cloud Sea not only had to be of a celestial emperor cultivation level, but also had to be affirmed by the Cloud Beast . Afterall, the Cloud Beast was the embodiment of the Cloud Sea . Whoever wanted to stay on the Cloud Sea would have to apply for something like a land permit . This "land permit" was the contract between the Cloud Beast to make it a contract beast .

Only one Cloud Beast would be born every couple of hundred years . Once it matures, the Cloud Beast's strength would be comparable to that of a Celestial Emperor . Before Ying Zhi's cultivation level increased, the Cloud Sea did not have a new Cloud Beast . At the time, although the Cloud Sea did not normally interact with the other continents and seas, it was not as isolated as it is now . Ying Zhi had a water-elemental body-type, but he was not yet a Celestial Emperor . He always took on his human form when he walked next to Lan Yu, so everybody thought that he was an immortal . To this day, everybody thinks that the Cloud Sea's Celestial Emperor is an immortal and not a demon . What's more, Yun Feng had always been right next to the Cloud Sea . Half of the Cloud Sea even overlapped into Yun Feng continent's skies .

The water-elemental beasts naturally loved to stay near water . That explained why Ying Zhi often went from Yun Feng to the Cloud Sea to train . As time went by, he became close to the demon immortals in the Cloud Sea . Later, he became the first to achieve the level of Celestial Emperor . When he took over the Cloud Sea, he did not meet any resistance or objections whatsoever .

Later, when the Cloud Beast was born, Ying Zhi thought that it would take awhile before he would earn the validation of the Cloud Beast . If he went to battle the Cloud Beat immediately, he would either become an official Celestial Emperor sooner or he would be eaten by the Cloud Beast . Unexpectedly, when he first met the Cloud Beast, it was especially attracted to Ying Zhi . In fact, the Cloud Beast took the initiative to request to become Ying Zhi's contract beast . That was how Ying Zhi officially became the Celestial Emperor Ying Zhi .

It could be said that among the ten Celestial Emperors, Ying Zhi had the easiest time becoming a Celestial Emperor . After a few thousand years, perhaps Heaven thought it strange to let people go without any pain or troubles . As the Cloud Beast grew more mature, it became more and more intelligent . Suddenly, it hated Ying Zhi!

"You stupid, ugly liar! To think that I thought you were a beautiful lady before . It was all a lie!" An angry roar came from the seabed . "You lied to me when I was pure and simple . Hmph! I will never validate your ugly face . I'm leaving this place to look for a beautiful sister!"

"Mm, that's what happened!" Lan Yu concluded .

The four of them turned to look at the accused…

"What are you looking at me for? I'm not the one who dressed him up as a lady!" Lan Hua exploded, blushing . Why are you blaming me for the Cloud Beast being mistaken?

Lonemoon: "…"

Yi Qing: "…"

Chen Ge: "…"

Shen Ying: "…"

So the Cloud Beast so easily agreed to enter into a contract with Ying Zhi because it mistook him for a lady . Speaking of that… was this a common problem faced by all avatars?

What's more, the Cloud Beast took a few thousand years to realise that Ying Zhi was a male . Was the Cloud Beast slow or did Ying Zhi play the role very well?

"The Cloud Beast is not yet fully mature - that's why it's acting this way," Celestial Emperor Ying Zhi sighed . He had a pained expression on his face . "When it throws a tantrum, there's nothing I can do as well . Anyway, the more we try to stop it, the more it insists on going out to look for a new Big Sister . "

"It's just throwing a tantrum - why can't you get a female immortal to pacify it? Why must you let it out of the Cloud Sea?" It seemed that the Cloud Beast only wanted to find a Big Sister to form a contract with from the very beginning . When it found out that Ying Zhi was a male, it could not help but lose its temper . The problem would be solved if they could just find it a female immortal . The Cloud Beast was not yet mature anyway - nothing much would happen if they did not let it out of the Cloud Sea to cause trouble .

"We tried that method…" Ying Zhi's expression fell . "But while the Cloud Beast throws a tantrum, its true body is hidden in the deepest corners of the Crystal Palace . Whenever it says it wants to escape from the Cloud Sea, it would only turn into an avatar and appear at the water surface . In order to enter the Crystal Palace, one has to at least be an Exalted Immortal . "

So that's the case . No wonder they only saw the waves but did not catch a glimpse of the Cloud Beast - it was hidden at the bottom of the sea .

"All the demons that are Exalted Immortals in the Cloud Sea have tried to persuade it," Ying Zhi continued . "But all of them have been chased out . "

"Why?"

Ying Zhi pursed his lips . "It says… they look ugly . "

Everyone: "…"

Lonemoon subconsciously looked at Ying Zhi's face . Honestly, if one did not bother that Ying Zhi's body was that of a man's, his face was really exceptionally beautiful . His eyebrows and other features were so feminine, and he was even dressed in women's clothing . It was no wonder that the Cloud Beast would despise the other female immortals for being ugly . Ying Zhi already set such a high standard .

"There's nobody else in the Cloud Sea that we can use . We've run out of solutions - that's why we started looking outside of the Cloud Sea and invited female immortals from all around to come and try . " Ying Zhi frowned . "The immortals in the Cloud Sea have never had relations with the other continents . Our immortals have always been extremely pure . It took us a long time to find a couple of immortals to come and try things out, yet all of them were male and each had their own personal motives . It was extremely irritating . "

That was why they set up that sign outside the door?

"That's why we have not removed the spell to this day . " Ying Zhi frowned even more deeply . He wanted to ask the few of them whether they knew any worthy females who were Exalted Immortals .

Shen Ying, who had been munching on a fruit up till then, suddenly spoke . "Why not I give it a shot?" She was quite experienced in educating children .

"You?" The moment Shen Ying spoke, Lonemoon retorted . "Save it! Didn't Celestial Emperor Ying Zhi already say that the Cloud Beast has high expectations?"

Shen Ying tilted her head . "Am I not of a high enough standard?"

Lonemoon rolled his eyes and turned to look at her . "Don't you have an inkling whether you are of a high enough…"

Before he could finish speaking, his eyes focused on the familiar yet foreign face in front of him . He lost his train of thought all of a sudden . He had not paid much attention to her face before, and this was the first time he was paying attention to it and looking at it from a male's perspective .

It seemed that… she was quite pleasing to the eye!
