With My System, I Can Even Tame Gods

Chapter 700: Skeleton

Neither of them seemed to have a single piece of clothing on as they sat around the fire.

The two of them looked at her while she was looking at them before they suddenly looked away again with blushes on their faces.

When she saw this, Xiao Ming couldn't help feeling a bit confused as to why they would react this way. That was until she felt a bit drafty and looked down to see why she felt that way.

She was almost naked herself...

Her clothes had been taken off and there were only her delicates that were left on her.

No, there were two large coats that were on her as well that seemed to be covering her body. But they had slipped when she had sat up to look around herself.

Xiao Ming's face was filled with a blush as well before her face twisted in anger and she shouted, "You two! You dare take advantage of me while I was unconscious!"

Huang Xie and Yu Huang immediately revealed embarrassed looks, but they still tried to explain themselves.

"It isn't like that!"

"Right, we didn't do anything to you! We promise!"

The two of them did their best to state their innocence, but they never once said what they had actually done which made Xiao Ming narrow her eyes.

She didn't actually believe that the two of them would actually do anything to her, that was her trust in the two of them after knowing them for a while now. But there was the fact that was in front of her and they were acting suspicious by trying to cover for themselves like this.

So Xiao Ming said in the end, "What happened then?"

Her voice was ice cold, piercing into the hearts of Huang Xie and Yu Huang. Stay updated with m-v le-mpyr

However, the two of them couldn't say a thing since they knew that they deserved this.

Huang Xie was the one that broke the silence by saying with a sigh, "All we did was take your clothes off so we could dry them off by the fire. We promise that we didn't do anything to you."

Yu Huang nodded in agreement before pointing at the makeshift clothesline that they had made that had all of their clothes on it by the fire and saying, "Right, your clothes are right here."

Xiao Ming hadn't paid attention to it since she was focused on the two of them and the fact that they were basically naked, but now that she had calmed down and looked carefully, she could see that this was indeed the case.

But the fact that they had laid hands on her body was still something that she was angry about, even if they did it so she wouldn't catch a cold.

In the end, Xiao Ming said, "You two are going to pay for this later."

Huang Xie and Yu Huang revealed helpless bitter smiles, but they didn't refute it since they knew that there probably was a better way for them to handle this.

It was just that in their panic, they hadn't been able to think straight and had come up with this method which didn't seem like the best method now that they had calmed down.

While they were putting on their clothes, Xiao Ming started looking around the cave that they were all in.

The cave wasn't that big, so it didn't take long for her to see through the entire cave.

Other than a pond, there wasn't a single thing that was here.

There wasn't even an exit.

But that was confusing since that didn't explain how they had arrived in the pool in the first place.

Seeing that the two of them had finished putting on their clothes, Xiao Ming turned to them and simply asked, "What happened?"

Both Huang Xie and Yu Huang understood what she was asking, but they shook their heads to show that they didn't know either.

Huang Xie was the one that had been conscious the whole time, so he explained what he experienced.

"We just suddenly appeared in this cave and splashed down in the water?" Xiao Ming's voice was filled with doubt as she said this.

Huang Xie gave a nod with a bitter smile, but he didn't say anything since he couldn't explain it better.

Xiao Ming looked up when she saw that he was serious about this, but all she saw was the roof of the cave. There wasn't a single hole for them to fall through like Huang Xie said.

But there had to be a reason why he said that they had fallen down into the cave...

Gathering some flames in her hand, Xiao Ming suddenly shot out a fireball at the roof above them.

The flames hit the roof, but then scattered like it didn't do a thing. The flames scattered and then disappeared without a trace, but there wasn't a single trace of being burnt on the roof.

Whatever this roof was made of, it was very strong.

Huang Xie and Yu Huang both had bitter smiles on their faces when they saw this, but they didn't stop her. In fact, there was even a trace of embarrassment that was on their face as they watched her.

That was because...they had both tried the same thing earlier.

After Xiao Ming calmed down, she turned back to look at the two of them and asked, "What do we do then?"

The two of them were silent for a bit before Huang Xie turned to look at the pond and said, "When I was falling, I saw something from above. It was a skeleton that was at the bottom of this pond. I think that it might be related to whatever created this place and is trapping us."

Xiao Ming immediately went over to the side of the pond and looked down into it, but she wasn't able to see a single thing.

She turned back to look at Huang Xie and asked, "Are you sure about that?"

Huang Xie gave a nod before coming over to look down into the water.

After a while, he pointed down and said, "It's right there."
