Mythical Beasts: The Useless Lady Is a Genius!

Chapter 2



Beast Essence Awakening

“Yes!” Yin Ling immediately released his intrinsic divine beast, the Infernal Wolf!

Wen Qiong threw herself into her mother’s arms helplessly. “Hurry up and go back to soak in the medicinal bath to wait for your awakening. What are you waiting for?!” the queen said sternly.

“Mother…” Wen Qiong was about to explain when she was pulled away by the person behind her, so she could only give up.

Kong Rui had just finished dealing with a Youxue Wolf and was a little exhausted. She hadn’t awakened her beast yet and without the support of her intrinsic divine beast, she was no match for these people.

Finally, she was dragged into the Empire’s underground chamber.

Lightning suddenly flashed and thunder rumbled in the sky. Along with the thunder, her entire spine gradually lit up.

“A strange phenomenon has happened…” the queen muttered.

Kong Rui had awakened!

Her spine became brighter and brighter, making her entire body glow.

“Phoenix essence!”

Blood-red flames spread out around her body. She felt like her back was about to burn. Her body began to heal quickly, and all the injuries she had suffered healed in a few seconds.

A bolt of lightning struck her body, and a trace of blood flowed from the corner of Kong Rui’s mouth. She had heard her mother say that powerful and rare beast essences would attract the Heavenly Dao.

“I should be able to escape from this place this time,” Kong Rui muttered.

The girl was covered in lightning and blood lotus-like flames. Lightning struck her body nine times! Red patterns grew on her forehead.

Kong Rui was already exhausted. The wounds caused by the heavenly lightning couldn’t heal quickly. She watched helplessly as a few people rushed towards her and tied her hands and feet.

Wen Qiong was soaking in the best spirit medicine. “Just you wait. I will definitely awaken the most outstanding beast essence! I will definitely trample her under my feet.”

The queen’s expression looked sinister when she faced Kong Rui alone. “It’s really laughable that a bastard can actually obtain the empire’s natural divine luck. Unfortunately, you encountered me.” The queen patted Kong Rui’s face with her foot.

Kong Rui spat out a mouthful of blood at her and said disdainfully, “You’re so pathetically prideful!”

The queen’s expression instantly became ferocious. “How sharp-tongued! I will make you disappear without a trace.”

“Someone, dig out her phoenix essence. I want to use the Li family’s secret technique to give it to Qiong’er! Also, there’s a divine beast being nurtured between her eyebrows. Dig it out!”

She turned around and left to take care of Wen Qiong, who was in the process of awakening.

“Qiong’er, I found the best beast essence in the empire for you.”

Wen Qiong said happily, “Is it a phoenix essence?”

“Yes, Qiong’er. You don’t have to try to awaken your beast anymore. Hurry up and go to the underground secret room!”

“But, Mother, what if I can also awaken a phoenix essence myself?”

The queen stroked Qiong’er’s hair. “Silly child, the phoenix essence is rare. You should know that the empire’s luck is constantly decreasing, and it’s already extremely difficult to nurture a phoenix essence. This opportunity can’t be missed. Hurry up and follow me!”

Wen Qiong gritted her teeth and followed.

How painful was it to have her spine dug out? It was like living hell. Ever since she was young, Kong Rui had cried only a handful of times, but this time, she really couldn’t hold it in anymore. She felt despair.

“Mother, Mother, I’m in so much pain,” she moaned.

“So what?! It’s already your supreme honor that the princess is willing to use your lowly beast bone. Why are you still complaining?!”

The sharp knife shuttled through her flesh. “Why are you calling your mother? Your mother died long ago. Do you know how she died?” The queen smiled. “She was poisoned by me.” She walked over leisurely and said the most vicious words with the gentlest expression.

The girl trembled and her eyes were bloodshot. She suddenly bit off a joint of the queen’s index finger.

“Ahhh!” the queen cried out.

Kong Rui was kicked away fiercely. At the same time, her phoenix essence was completely stripped away. The queen took a sharp knife and ordered her subordinates to hold her down while she stabbed her forehead.

The intrinsic spirit beast on her forehead seemed to have sensed something and left its host first to block the sharp knife. “It’s a phoenix beast egg!”

The queen held it excitedly, ignoring the blood flowing from her fingers. “Hahaha, not bad. I really have to thank you for bringing my daughter the best talent in the empire.”

Kong Rui’s bones had already been extracted and she was on her last breath. She could only watch helplessly as her beast egg was carried away by a female slave. She glared at the queen and tried her best to reach out, but couldn’t. “I will definitely kill you!”

“Kill me?” The queen said disdainfully, “You? Take a good look at yourself. You have lost your beast essence and your intrinsic divine beast. How can you fight me?”

She chuckled contemptuously, as if she was looking down at an ant. “Someone, throw her into the Demon Abyss and make her regret coming to this world again before she dies. I want her to die without a complete corpse.” Also, she said in disgust, “Be careful. Don’t dirty your hands. Be careful or I’ll chop off your hands.”

The demons locked in the Demon Abyss were all evil magical beasts. Over the thousands of years, people could only enter but couldn’t leave.

Kong Rui was dragged to the entrance of the abyss. This place was bottomless, and she could vaguely hear heart-wrenching howls from inside.

The two female slaves were terrified and quickly threw her in. The moment she was thrown down, she saw the sky light up with red blood clouds. A golden light shot into the sky and stabbed at the blood clouds with the cry of a phoenix. Along with rumbling thunder, the ground shook.

The Phoenix Divine Maiden had been born! The phoenix essence had already been successfully transplanted into Wen Qiong’s body!
