Chapter 108: Her money was gone again!
Minutes pa.s.sed, and the two of them didn't say a word. All they did was embrace each other tightly.
Because they had no idea how long this silence will remain.
The tree branch was probably going to snap soon.
Suddenly, Le Yao Yao heard "zzz" sound. So, she couldn't help but look up.
She shouldn't have looked. Now that she saw it, she felt like her spirit was going to escape from her body.
It turned out it wasn't the branch snapping, it was-
"Oh G.o.d! Prince Rui! There's a snake!"
If Leng Jun Yu remembered clearly, this was the black spotted snake. Their species really liked to entrench itself around overhanging cliffs. They were extremely poisonous. If one were to get bitten, even a Daoist Immortal wouldn't be able to save them.
In addition, the black spotted snakes were very territorial. If they notice intruders, they will instantly strike and attack.
So the moment Leng Jun Yu identified the snake, he was very concerned.
If this was a normal situation, he wouldn't even care. But they were currently in a very disadvantaged position.
After all, they were hanging off a branch in the middle of a cliff. He had only one hand on the branch and another wrapped around Le Yao Yao. In order to stay alive, he must kill the snake before it attacks them.
Thinking of this, Leng Jun Yu commanded, "Tighten your grip onto this Prince. Make sure you do not fall off."
Although Le Yao Yao was extremely scared, she knew this was not the time to be weak.
So, she gritted her teeth and squeezed Leng Jun Yu with all the strength she had. Furthermore, she intertwined her legs around his legs as well.
It actually looked very s.e.xual and hilarious at the same time.
It was as if Le Yao Yao was a sloth hugging a thick tree.
While Le Yao Yao was holding on Leng Jun Yu tightly, the black spotted snake unleashed a vicious attack.
The snake opened its huge jaw and revealed its pointy, poisonous teeth. Underneath the moonlight, it emitted a very s.h.i.+ny bone-chilling effect.
Unfortunately, regardless of how poisonous the snake was, when faced with the ruthless King of h.e.l.l, it was still doomed to fail.
Leng Jun Yu mercilessly blasted internal qi from his palm towards the black spotted snake.
Immediately, there was a sound of explosion.
By the time Le Yao Yao turned around again, she saw the black spotted snake's body hanging from the tree.
Its corpse was swaying back and forth with the wind…
"Eh!!?"
Oh G.o.d! The King of h.e.l.l didn't even need to use a weapon. He only used his palm and the snake was dead!
So hot! So cool!
How great would it be if she knew martial arts! If she wanted to escape, it would be such a simple task!
Thinking of this, Le Yao Yao secretly decided that in the future, she will learn martial arts once she has the opportunity.
Suddenly, Le Yao Yao heard another sharp *pa* sound.
Without thinking, she tightly grasped onto the King of h.e.l.l and burrowed her face into his chest as she waited for death.
But during this life and death moment, Le Yao Yao suddenly felt her body rising. Before she could figure out what happened, she felt her feet touching the ground.
The ground?
Could she have landed at the bottom of the cliff already?
But how come she didn't feel any pain at all?
Le Yao Yao was confused as she slowly fluttered open her eyelashes.
She was in shock. They weren't actually at the bottom of the cliff. Instead, they were standing above it.
What happened?
While Le Yao Yao was being confused, a deep, low, seductive voice filled with concern appeared above her –
"Are you alright?"
"Eh!?"
Hearing this, Le Yao Yao slightly lifted her head and gazed at the King of h.e.l.l. It wasn't until this moment that she realized she was still in his arms and she was hugging him extremely tightly.
Le Yao Yao's expression instantly crumpled and her cheeks turned pink. At the same time, she released her hands and leaped out of the King of h.e.l.l's arms.
Oh G.o.d! She was so embarra.s.sing!
Currently, Le Yao Yao's pupils were looking all over the place. She didn't dare to stare at the King of h.e.l.l.
She noticed Nangong Jun Xi was standing on the side with a rope in his hands and quickly put all the pieces together.
Fortunately, Nangong Jun Xi came just in time to save them.
"Thank you."
"Humph! Don't overthink. I wanted to save my senior brother, and happened to save you as well!"
But in Le Yao Yao's eyes, Nangong Jun Xi was so childish and cute. So, she couldn't help but giggle.
"What are you laughing at?!"
He almost died, and he could still laugh?! If it were anyone else, they would probably have turned green and cried!
This little eunuch must belong to a weird species.
Unfortunately for Nangong Jun Xi, he was attracted to this species!
Uggghhh!!!!!!! d.a.m.n it! He cannot continue being like this! He was a eunuch! He can't like a eunuch! AHHHHH!!!
"I like to laugh. I'm laughing at you. You're like an awkward kid! Haha!" Le Yao Yao snickered.
"What? Awkward kid?!?! You're the kid! This Prince is seventeen this year. I'm much older than you! You servant. How dare you call this Prince a kid!? Do you want to get beaten?"
"Haha! You're a kid! You're only seventeen. That's still a child!"
Currently, Le Yao Yao had regained her energy and began to bicker with Nangong Jun Xi again.
She failed to notice that behind her, another man was watching her interactions the entire time. Leng Jun Yu felt empty and his eyes flickered. Deep down, he felt a bit disappointed…
—–
After returning to Ya Feng Ge, the King of h.e.l.l kindly excused Le Yao Yao and she quickly washed up and got ready for bed.
Since she went through so much shock today, Le Yao Yao was super exhausted. The moment she laid down, she slept straight until morning.
She had a wonderful dream too. In her dream, she was a wealthy woman.
She was lying on top of a golden mountain of money, and banknotes with a value of silver kept raining down on her.
She was howling with laughter as she picked up the banknotes and rolled around on her mountain….
The next day, Le Yao Yao woke up smiling.
After waking up, she noticed a huge drool spot beside her pillow. She must have been too emotional in her dream that all her drool came out!
So, Le Yao Yao rushed to wipe her mouth and washed up to prepare to serve the King of h.e.l.l.
But the moment she stood up, she realized something. Le Yao Yao violently felt her body and couldn't feel the pouch on her at all. A huge sense of dread rapidly welled up from her chest.
Le Yao Yao was afraid and shaken because her money was gone!
"Ah! My money! My 100 silver taels! Where…where is it?!?!" She exclaimed.
Le Yao Yao frantically searched her entire room, but she couldn't find her pouch. She was so anxious that she almost burst into tears.
She remembered clearly picking up her pouch from yesterday. But why was it missing again? Could it have fallen over the cliff?!
Oh G.o.d!? Could you stop playing with me?!
Could it be that she was destined to be poor for life? She will never have money?!
Now, Le Yao Yao was like a balloon that had lost all its air. She weakly sat on the ground and her energetic face was now depressed.
"M-my money…wuwu…." Le Yao Yao howled.
Le Yao Yao was so upset that she didn't realize after she made her miserable shriek that Leng Jun Yu was watching from the window.
