Chapter 361 - Restarting the Crisis
The Cold Prince Dotes On His Wild Wife
Mo Youyou could not help but pat her chest, âPhew! I was scared to death. I thought it was some kind of ghost, but it turns out itâs just a little monkey. ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
She waved at the little monkey and smiled: âHey! âLittle darling, what are you doing?â
The little monkey tilted its head and squeaked at Mo Youyou, who casted a sidelong glance to show that she did not understand what she meant. The little monkey became anxious and stood on top of the tree branch.
âAre you telling me not to go in?â She pointed to the right. The little monkey shook its head and nodded. Mo Youyou rolled his eyes. Forget it, she didnât want to bother with it. Letâs talk to Great Senior Brother first. Thinking about this, she asked Monkey, âHey, little baby, have you seen a very cold looking man. Heâs so tall, with a pair of thick eyebrows and big eyes â¦â The little monkey shook his head, indicating that he had never seen it before.
Alright, since she hadnât seen him before, she might as well continue looking for him! Mo Youyou thought about it for a while before deciding to not go in the direction that the little monkey was pointing at. What if there were any dangers inside? So she said goodbye to the little monkey and said: âIâm going to go find me, Senior Brother, you can play around here slowly.â After saying that, she walked towards the left side of the little monkey.
This was a path that could only fit one person. The path was very narrow, and both sides of the path were covered with thorns. Mo Youyou wasnât too interested in flowers, but of course, she did. So I donât recognize these things. However, it seemed to be very piercing, so she curled her arms tightly to avoid being pierced by those thorns.
After walking for an unknown amount of time, he finally managed to get away from the thorns. However, the road was still endless. The plants on both sides of the path had also been replaced by some flowers and plants, looking much gentler. Mo Youyouâs worried heart also instantly relaxed.
She took in a deep breath and looked around, searching for Xiang Zhipingâs figure. Suddenly, a cold wind blew behind her back, causing Mo Youyou to feel a chill on her back. She thought to herself, it should be because the fog here is too thick. Once the wind and moisture entered, it would make my back feel this way. Thinking this way, my heart which was hanging in the air would also feel a lot more relaxed.
Xiang Zhiping passed by the place Mo Youyou just passed by, and the same little monkey appeared, âLittle thing, have you seen a little girl before? Youâre ugly, and your eyes are beautiful? â
The little monkey squeaked twice, pointing to the right path as it nodded to Xiang Zhiping. Xiang Zhiping understood, clasping his fists towards Little Monkey in thanks before walking towards the right path.
Xiang Zhiping, on the other hand, was not as lucky as Mo Youyou. According to the little monkeyâs guidance, he had encountered countless dangers along the way.
It wasnât easy to escape danger, but who knew that the more dangerous ones were waiting for him? Xiang Zhiping looked at the monster slowly crawling towards him from behind the tree, feeling inexplicably nervous in his heart. He had never seen this monster before but he had seen it in the records of the Misty Forest. This should be the third most powerful scorpion centipede in the Misty Forest. Its body was four meters long, and it had over a hundred slender legs. Its tail was like a scorpionâs, and when it rose from the top, it brought with it sharp poisonous thorns. It looked extremely fierce.
Xiang Zhiping fiercely pulled out his longsword, pointing it at the scorpion centipede. He had wanted to drink it back, but the more the scorpion centipede roared, the more ferocious it became. Its fist-sized eyes stared straight at Xiang Zhiping, wishing that it could eat him into its stomach.
Xiang Zhiping watched as the scorpion centipede slowly crawled over. He couldnât help but take two steps back. Seeing this, the scorpion centipede crawled over a bit more. Xiang Zhiping lowered his cold eyes. It seemed that he had to fight today! With a leap, he stabbed the sword at the scorpionâs body.
Who knew that the Scorpion Centipedeâs body would be so agile as it dodged to the side.
The battle continued.
At this time, Xiang Shaoyu appeared in front of Xiang Haonan with a brocade case in Nether Villaâs Violet Firmament Palace. After finishing all the matters, he wanted to come back and see Mo Youyou as soon as possible, so he had come back early. Coincidentally, he passed by a shop in the Fusang Kingdom, felt that the jade hairpin in his hand was very suitable for Mo Youyou, and bought it to immediately see her for her. Therefore, he rushed over to the Zi Xiao Palace to give Mo Youyou a present.
This childâs personality had been cold since childhood, and had never seen him smile before. Even though the little girl he brought back this time had ruined all her looks, she was still very lively, and he could tell that Xiang Shaoyu really liked her. This little girl ⦠Therefore, he doted on Mo Youyou like she was her own daughter.
Seeing the embroidered box in Xiang Shaoyuâs hand, Xiang Haonan laughed: âYou brat, you brought that girl a present again?â
Xiang Shaoyu pursed his lips and nodded, âMn. Where is she? Father? â
âShe went to the back of the mountain.â
âWhat?â âAt the back of the mountain!â
Xiang Shaoyuâs heart dropped to the bottom of the valley. Why would this woman go to the back of the mountain? Do you know how dangerous it is?!
His cold voice carried a faint anger and worry. Xiang Haonan smiled casually, âYou brat, what are you worried about? With CaiâEr and the Great Senior Brother around, youâre still afraid that sheâs in danger?â
Hearing CaiâErâs name, Xiang Shaoyuâs figure flashed and he disappeared. Xiang Haonan let out a helpless sigh, âAi, this child, how did he become so flustered the moment he encountered that girlâs matter!â
In the Misty Forest, Mo Youyou sat under a big tree, holding onto her head and frowning as she looked at the ants below her feet, âWhere the hell is the Great Senior Brother? Why was there nothing after all this time? My stomach is so hungry. I wonder if big brother is back yet, Iâm so tired! â
Mo Youyou was currently filled with cold and hunger, both hungry and tired, her eyelids looked as though they were fighting. She squinted her eyes slightly as she watched the ants carrying a bunch of white objects in their mouths, patting the line as they walked towards her nest.
After a long while, she sighed and stood up abruptly. However, when she raised her eyes, she felt the world spinning around her, and her mind went blank. In an instant, she fell into a deep slumber. Pity that group of ants, who were pressed down by Mo Youyou, couldnât do anything.
Xiang Zhiping was currently lying in the grass, his body covered with wounds, holding his breath as he focused his mind. Only after fighting with the scorpion centipede for an hour did he realize that the scorpionâs eyes could not see a person. Instead, it was using its sense of smell to find the direction and identify the location of its food. He used all his strength to deal with it, but he was still hit by its venom in the end. He weakly lay on the ground and held his breath, hoping that the scorpion centipede would not be able to find him and leave.
As expected, the scorpion centipede spun a few rounds on the spot. Unable to sense Xiang Zhipingâs aura, it turned and walked deeper into the cave. Seeing that the scorpion centipede had disappeared, Xiang Zhiping let out a sigh of relief before turning around and lying down on the grass, his bloodshot eyes staring at the sky.
