Meow Meow Meow - Chapter 205

Chapter 205 - Jian Nan's Invasion

When I woke up the next morning, Ao Yun was no longer here, only a few strands of red on the pillow showed that everything yesterday was not a dream.

I climbed out of the bed and checked my body, besides my head hurting, there was nothing unusual. I walked into the bathroom and saw the figure in the mirror on the washstand that seemed familiar to Hua Miao Miao but yet completely different, it was strange.

I opened the faucet and the purified seawater came out, I washed my face and became more alert. I opened the closet and inside were all clothes that were chosen by Ao Yun. They were all ancient formal extravagant dresses or hanfu skirts that clearly would not allow me to walk properly.

I also didn't give him any face and took out a plain long cheongsam dress and tore off the hem and turned it to a short skirt, it was unsightly, I put it on and walked out the door.

A few of the guards who have been living on the sea floor for a long time saw me like this and couldn't help but hastily turn their heads' away. Amongst them was one who seemed very young and must have not been a demon for long who was holding a spear in his hand. I looked him over and determined that this person should have something I want and so I walked up and pretended not to be paying attention to the road and then bumped into him and fell to the ground.

The guard was so frightened that he rushed to help me up. He was a little soldier who just got promoted and was afraid he would be punished and profusely apologized and begged me not to tell Manager Hua Rong or Lord Ao Yun. I smiled and comforted his nervous heart and said that I will absolutely not report it and afterwards he hurriedly left.

After going some distance away, I opened my palm, in it was a small dagger. This is the custom with Imperial guards, they always put hidden daggers in their boots. When I lived in Xuanaing Palace, I often watch them dress up, it's really useful today. I couldn't help but feel smug about my theft.

I went back to hid in my room and walked into the bathroom and closed the door, and then pulled out the thin dagger to appraise it, this dagger was thin a small 3-inch wide, about the length of a finger. The cold steel reflected the light and had a faint smell of blood, it's sharp, this is a good and rare gain. Although I am not good at using swords and weapons, it doesn't mean that I cannot make a strong effort at all.

I will hide it in the wide sleeves. I don't intend to while away here in this wretched situation like some poor female lead who only knows how to throw a tantrum, simmer down and quarrel making noise and waddling in this muddied water affair. I would rather die, also this aggrieved role is not suitable for me at all. The sad thing is that I am not strong to be able to fight my way out.

If I can go back, I will think of every means to find my way back. If I can't think of a way to go back then I will just grab Hua Rong and use her as a hostage to make a breakout. If Ao Yun really doesn't have any sentimental feelings for her and this breakout plan fails, then I will simply cut myself and go to reincarnate. It's also better than staying in this bullshit prison for the rest of my life.

 The intense anger brought up my cat's cruelty from my previous life completely overshadowing the normal thinking of humans, going with the line of thinking of a gecko breaking off its tail to escape or an antelope sacrificing the weakest in order to let up a siege...Nature has countless hunts and fights, it's long been known the premise of wanting to be cruel to the enemy one must be ready to be even more cruel to your own self.
  

Thousands of hunting methods gradually surfaced in my heart and I was coldly calculating my skills and the probability of success, when I was suddenly alarmed by a small sound behind me and rapidly hid the dagger in my sleeves. I turned around and put on a big smile but I did not see the figures of Ao Yun or Hua Rong. I couldn't help but be a bit confused.

I looked around and noticed that there was slight movement from the under the sheets on the bed. I took out the dagger and carefully approached it, and then quickly lifted the sheets...there was only a big green frog under it looking at me eyes wide...

"Jian Nan? How come you are here?" I was surprised and happy and then quickly realized, "You are a water amphibian."

"Water amphibians cannot go to the sea. I almost lost half of life this time." Jian Nan said grumbling a little. He did not change back to his human form and just jumped out like this and went to the bedside table. After checking side to side for the enemy, jumped on the bed again and drilled under the blanket to cover himself and sneakily said to me, "I came to discuss with you."

"Bi Qing was hurt so badly. Did anything go wrong?" I couldn't wait and hastily grabbed the frog.

"Don't get excited. You will give us away!" Jian Nan said anxiously, "There's nothing wrong with him. Yin Zi and Molin arrived it time, he was saved, he just lost a lot of blood. The immortal elixir worked and he should be better in a few days, but Xiao Mao has broken bones, I am afraid he will have to stay in bed for a while."

Hearing that Bi QIng was okay, my heart relaxed and I was no longer so anxious.

Jian Nan then asked, "Miao Miao, where did you put the water pearls you had in your past life? You wouldn't have been empty-headed and lost it, right?"

"I didn't." I quickly denied it and then thought for a short moment and said, "It seemed to have been on me when I died so...probably burned."

"You idiot..." Jian Nan was speechless, and after a moment of silence, he said, "Now everyone is planning on how to break into the Dragon palace to save you. It was Jin Wen that brought me here. She is currently outside trying to find out information. But the biggest problem now is how to repel the water and the lack of water pearls. Only Xiao Mao and Shao Zhong are able to come. Furthermore, Ao Yun has many soldiers under his command around the area outside, it will be difficult to bypass them."

"How can that be? Lou Sha, Jin Wen, and Xiao Tian should certainly be able to repel the water." I quickly counted my fingers and calculated, "Them and Xiao Mao, Shao Zhong, Bull devil, just five of them should be enough to break through this palace, also Haiyang can help too, right?"

"He cannot help now. Charging into the Dragon King's sea palace for a private matter is not a trivial matter. If the matter reaches the higherups, it can be calculated as violating heavenly law." Jian Nan completely dispelled my beautiful ideas.

As soon as I heard that this can be considered a crime, I immediately threw out my previous words, "Bull devil gege absolutely must not be allowed to come, he just got out of prison. If he is charged with another crime, he will be finished. Sister-in-law Lou Sha must not become a widow, also her palm-leaf fan will not be of much use on the seafloor."

Jian Nan nodded and continued to analyze, "Xiao Tian's master Erlang Shen Hun is most adherent to celestial laws. If he finds out about this, he need not wait for him to convicted under heavenly law, his master will on his own strictly and impartially beat him to death. Shao Zhong's master on the hand is indifferent and does not care about the Dragon palace or the Third prince, its neither here nor there to him and so even though he finds out, he will turn a blind eye to it. Jin Wen also cannot come, she is a person from the Dragon King's Palace, although she can secretly provide intelligence and lead the way, the Third prince is her former master and so she cannot openly confront him on this matter."

I felt a little despair after listening, "Then it's only Xiao Mao and Shao Zhong that can come, right?"

"Yin Zi will also come...he said that he must personally save Xiao Cha and you." Jian Nan paused and then said, "That...Bi Qing will also come..."

I was shocked, "What are the two of them doing here? Granted, Yin Zi is okay, at least he can quickly make an escape, but Bi Qing doesn't have even a little bit of magic power presently ah!"

Jian Nan mumbled for a long time before he finally opened up his mouth to speak under the threat of violence, "Lou Sha is currently the big sister of the underworld...a high ranking person..."

"So what?" I did not understand.

"It seems...Bi Qing used to be on the Special Forces Elite team when he was in the army...He asked Lou Sha to privately get guns and ammunition and also hand grenades, rocket launchers, naval mines or something...ready to use modern high tech to charge in with Yin Zi..."

In my mind, I imagined what they would look like charging in with machine guns waging war against immortals with spears and magic. I was floored and couldn't speak for a long time.
