Chapter 261 Who took you there?
Jingmei remembered how she had been corrupted by demons.
At that time, I was caught up in the battle of my tribe and lost my breath. Afterwards, I was treated as "trash" and thrown into the sea of the Abyss of Hopelessness.
The demonic energy seeped into her flesh and blood, pulling her back from the brink of death.
It was the Water Demon King Yaoxi who saved her.
Shocked by the power of the demons, she began an affair with Yaoxi.
However, Jingmei doesn't actually like Yaoxi; she only admires powerful abilities.
She tries to please whoever is powerful.
After Yaoxi died, the people around her kept changing, and currently she values Wufeng the most.
Wu Feng was completely infatuated with her and longed to become her partner.
But Jeongmi had a higher goal—she wanted to wait for the Abyss of No Hope to be unified so that she could become queen.
She was confident until she saw Yuan Xiao's face.
She absolutely would not allow such a face to get close to the future demon king.
Therefore, she would not give Yuan Xiao a chance if there was even the slightest chance of survival.
As for whether Chi Miao would find out or blame Chi Hong, Jingmei didn't care at all.
Why would she care about the life or death of a good-for-nothing?
Yuan Xiao's body was still gradually sinking...
The demonic energy that had been washed away gradually drifted back with the seawater and surrounded Yuan Xiao.
The demonic energy suddenly dissipated, and her body began to sink rapidly into the unfathomable depths of the sea…
In the distant Tiger Lion City, a crimson light flashed within Yuan Xiao's crystal ball...
At the same time, a few faint bubbles rose from the seabed...
"Xiaoxiao...can you hear me? It's me, Xiaochu!"
"My communication is back up for now!"
"Can you hear me? Hey, I'm telling you, this thing you made... it's completely useless! I can't see or hear anything! Come and take a look if you don't believe me."
Xiao Chu got up, pressed Fu Gui'er back into his seat, and then saw Yuan Xiao struggling to swim upwards from the seabed.
The sound of gurgling seawater came from the speakers.
Fu Gui'er looked at Xiao Chu and pushed up his gold-rimmed glasses: "Is this what you call not being able to see or hear?"
"Ha ha ha ha……"
After a few awkward laughs, Xiao Chu pulled Fu Gui'er out of his seat and sat back down herself.
"Oh dear, how was I supposed to know she was in the water! Wait... how come you're in the water?!"
“She can’t open her mouth to speak right now,” Fu Gui’er reminded her.
Xiao Chu: "I know, I was just too excited and talking to myself, haha... Xiao Xiao is pretty good now, you've really figured out how to play this skill."
Yuan Xiao heard it clearly, but couldn't respond.
She activated her "Enjoy the Ocean" skill and tried to swim to the surface before the skill ended.
With Xiao Chu helping her "navigate," she swam much more smoothly.
When her head emerged from the water and she breathed in fresh air again, she noticed a barrier in front of her.
Yuan Xiao knew that it was Xiao Chu who had prepared it for her.
She went straight in; right across from her castle gate was the entrance.
"Am I thoughtful? Praise me!" Xiao Chu said proudly.
Yuan Xiao didn't respond and immediately fainted...
------------
"Xiaoxiao... Xiaoxiao..."
Yuan Xiao slowly opened her eyes, and what came into view were those familiar faces.
Zehui, Yunfeng, Chimiao, Yumo, Aoshuang, and Dilin.
"You...you're all here..."
Yuan Xiao tried to sit up, but several large hands pushed her back into the quilt.
Di Lin frowned: "Xiao Chu said you went to the Azure Ocean?"
Chi Miao's eyes were red, as if she had just been crying: "Why did you go there? Why didn't you tell me..."
Zehui said with heartache, "It's my fault."
Di Lin: "Who took you there?"
“Chi Hong…”
Yuan Xiao's hair was not completely dry, her lips were dry and bloodless, and she looked extremely weak.
Upon hearing those two words, Chi Miao was so angry that she was about to leave: "I'm going to find him right now and demand my people back!"
“Come back…” Yuan Xiao reached out her hand.
"Don't go... Qianqian isn't with him..."
Chi Miao was surprised: "Didn't Chi Hong kidnap Qianqian?"
Yuan Xiao: "Yes... but later, someone... rescued her. Chi Hong said it himself..."
Yuan Xiao forced herself to recount the conversation between Chi Hong and Jing Mei, including the boy's appearance.
Di Lin suddenly stood up, revealing a panic he had never shown before.
Zehui: "You know him?"
Di Lin shook his head: "No, but I feel like I've seen this somewhere before..."
Zehui: "Is he dangerous?"
Di Lin glanced at Ze Hui: "Hopefully it's not him." Then he patted Ze Hui on the shoulder, "I'm leaving this to you guys. Keep an eye on things."
Zehui nodded.
Chi Miao was somewhat worried: "It was her! Jingmei is still alive?"
When he first fought Chi Hong, he didn't intend to harm any females, but Chi Hong tricked him, and he accidentally injured Jingmei.
He thought Jingmei was long dead, but he never expected that she was not only alive, but also possessed by a demon.
"So it was her..."
Yu Mo's words carried a hint of sarcasm.
Chi Miao: "You know her too?"
Yu Mo: "It's more than just knowing her, she..."
He was halfway through his sentence when Yu Mo glanced at Yuan Xiao and their eyes met.
He wasn't guilty; he had always been innocent. But when it came to Jingmei, one had to mention his days in the Abyss of Despair.
He was afraid that Yuan Xiao would feel sorry for him.
Seeing that Yuan Xiao had already heard, Yu Mo simply raised his voice: "When I saw her, she had already been corrupted by demons. At that time, I was mingling with the demons, and she took the initiative to lick my boots, trying to cling to my leg, but I kicked her away."
He then looked at Yuan Xiao: "I didn't even glance at her."
Yuan Xiao was amused by his serious expression, and a smile appeared on her face.
"I believe you."
Yu Mo was very satisfied to receive such recognition.
Ao Shuang gritted her teeth in hatred: "I don't care if she's a beast or a demon, or if she's male or female. She hurt my partner and almost caused me to lose my child. I will definitely..."
Yun Feng covered his mouth: "Don't talk nonsense, Xiao Xiao doesn't want to hear those things..."
"We must... kill him..."
In an instant, the room fell silent.
Everyone turned to look at Ao Shuang, and then at Yuan Xiao.
Ao Shuang removed Yun Feng's hand and hurriedly defended herself, "That's not what I said!"
Everyone looked at Yuan Xiao again.
She coughed twice, a flash of hatred in her clear almond-shaped eyes: "It was me who said that Chi Hong... must... kill him!"
This was the first time Yuan Xiao had said something like this.
This was not a spur-of-the-moment decision.
For a long time, the civilization and progress of Tiger and Lion City made her feel that it was almost no different from human society.
But she forgot that there are bad apples among humans, let alone beasts.
Beasts have animalistic instincts.
In the beast world, one must abide by its laws.
She can choose not to hurt others, but she absolutely cannot tolerate others hurting her and her family again and again.
