Chapter 608: Don’t Like Humans

Wu La Li didn’t expect Sima You Yue to be so straightforward, as if she wasn’t on guard against him. He was secretly pleased.

“How are you?” He asked.

Sima You Yue felt herself. Except for almost choking then, she didn’t feel anything.

“Nothing peculiar.” She honestly answered.

“Hah-hah. You’ll feel something once you go underwater.” Wu La Li chuckled. “Let’s go. We’re going down.”

“Can’t we use a space passageway?” Sima You Yue followed him.

“The pressure underwater is different, so the positioning of the space passageway wouldn’t be accurate.

“Oh.”

Two people were walking further and further away from the two stationary guards.

“His Highness actually gave the Underwater Pearl to that human?”

“Didn’t you see?”

“But that’s the Underwater Pearl! The precious Underwater Pearl. Why would his highness gave it to her for consumption? Isn’t it better giving her the red Underwater Pearl?”

The Underwater Pearl Sima You Yue consumed was turquoise blue. After consumption, it would stay in her body and she would be able to freely breathe underwater anytime. While the red Underwater Pearl was temporary. It could stay in the body for a month. After a month, it would lose its effect. Red Underwater Pearls weren’t uncommon, whereas turquoise blue Underwater Pearls were rare, there were only several in the whole seafloor.

“His Highness seems to treat her particularly.”

“What particularly, it’s very particular. Look, His Highness is smiling at her! When has his highness ever smile at us?”

“Does His Highness like her?”

“Unlikely? She’s a man, who’s somewhat effeminate.”

“What’s wrong with men. Do men like men less?”

“But I haven’t seen His Highness like men before?”

“Before is before, now is now. If your highness didn’t like it before, it doesn’t mean he doesn’t like it now. Maybe it just proves the human saying, it’s not because I like you because I like men but I like you, and you are a man. Oh, what romantic love talk.”

“If you continue to spout love talk, His Highness will bestow you a corpse.” A guard reprimanded before walking away. The other guard called out and ran to catch up.

They cross through the woods, over the mountains and saw a vastness sea.

“Ah, all things special of the sea is the water. All things special of the spider is its legs.” Facing the sea, she spread her arms and emotionally sighed.

“Hmm?” Wu La Li looked puzzledly at her.

“Cough, cough, this is a sentence I heard before.” Sima You Yue said awkwardly, “Shall we go down now?”

“Mm.” All of a sudden, Wu La Li put his arms around her waist, flew to the sky, and then plunged into the water.

Before going underwater, Sima You Yue had subconsciously closed her eyes and mouth. In the moment of plunging underwater, she felt that her body was completely enclosed, and a huge impact force pressed against her, but stopped around her body.

She opened her eyes and found that her body was covered with a thin film, which isolated the water from the outside and ensured her smooth breathing without being squeezed by strong pressure.

“Is this the function of the Underwater Pearl?” She asked delightedly.

“Yes.” Wu La Li answered. “We can breathe freely underwater, but you humans cannot. With this, you’ll be the same underwater and on land.”

“Thank you.” Sima You Yue felt grateful.

This thing must be very precious, yet he gave it to her.

“Let’s go. We may encounter some trouble on the way. In order to speed up our pace, you’ll have to endure.” After Wu La Li finished, he transformed into a long purple dragon without waiting for her reaction.

This dragon was not as powerful as the dragon in the totem in the previous life, but it nevertheless amazed Sima You Yue. Originally, she thought that the other party would let her ride him, but reality proved she was being wishful. With a huge claw, Wu La Li grabbed her, and then swam forward like lightning.

“Oh my goodness, it’s faster than a cruise ship!” Both of her hands hold onto Wu La Li’s claws. She looked excitedly at the underwater world.

Wu La Li lowered his head and saw her excited little face. He swayed his tail and increased his speed to maximum.

They traveled for several days,and they passed through several different clans ground. Those clans felt the aura released by Wu La Li and kept their distance from them.

“We’re almost there.” Wu La Li said, “We’re lucky this time to haven’t met any old enemies.”

“You have old enemies?” Sima You Yue asked.

“For all living things of the world, there inevitably will be things disagreeable. Some old grudges are passed from ancestors.” Wu La Li explained.

Sima You Yue also thought the same. Who in the world didn’t have a few enemies.

After another half day of traveling, they finally arrived at the Purple Water clan grounds. When Sima You Yue overviewed the place where Wu La Li had swam, dormant water dragons at the water bed raised their heads and saluted him.

Wu La Li brought Sima You Yue to an underwater palace before he stopped. He un-clenched his claw, releasing Sima You Yue and transformed into a human.

“Your Highness, you’re back.” The guards saluted to Wu La Li.

“Where’s imperial father?” Wu La Li asked.

“Emperor is with the Empress.” The guard answered.

Wu La Li paused his steps and turned towards another direction. “Come with me, I’ll show you around.”

“Your highness.” An old man walked out from palace. He didn’t have a beard but two whiskers.

“Prime Minister.” His highness was very respectful to the old man, and he spoke in a different tone.

“Is Your Highness going to see empress?” The prime minister asked.

“Yes. I found a doctor, and in passing, I’ll show to imperial father and mother.” Wu La Li answered.

“Last time, the emperor said, no more human beings are allowed to walk in the palace. You can take her there, but I fear that you will provoke the king.” The prime minister warned.

“I will persuade my father. Will the prime minister go with us?” Wu La Li wasn’t concern about that problem.

“Old minister will go with you. If the emperor gets angry, old minister can block for you.” The prime minister spoke uneasily.

“Pfff.” Sima You Yue laughed when she saw his appearance. Then she said to Wu La Li, “You didn’t tell that your imperial father is so resentful of humans.”

“In the past, we had brought some human alchemists and doctors, but they not only failed to cure her, but also made her situation more serious. And the last time we did, she almost died, so my imperial father forbids us to bring humans.” Wu La Li probed, “Why? Are you afraid?”

“It’s useless to be afraid. I’m already at the point of no return. And I believe that since you call me here, you won’t let me die here unjustly.” Sima You Yue replied.

“You’re still so self-confident.” Wu La Li chuckled.

It wasn’t the first time he met a self-confident person. But relatively few self-confident people made him not feel disgusted.

“That, in a moment, you’ll go in first. I’ll wait for you outside.” Sima You Yue suggested.

“Why?”

“You go ahead and give your father a preventive injection. Otherwise, I’m afraid that he will kill me as soon as he sees me. By then you can’t stop him, right?” Sima You Yue answered.

That old monster, whose strength was terrifyingly high, it was better to wait outside for the sake of her life.
