Chapter 494: He Had Always Thought She Was A Male Beast
Huanhuan’s body quickly sank into the water like a soaked sponge.
She looked through the clear lake and saw a female mermaid lying at the bottom of the lake.
That was…
Huanhuan bit the tip of her tongue and used the pain to come back to her senses a little. She swam to the bottom of the lake with difficulty.
When she got closer, she realized that the mermaid had long lost her life. There were many old wounds on her fishtail, and her scales were mottled and uneven. Her eyes were closed, and her face was pale. Her long blue hair fluttered in the water like seaweed growing at the bottom of the sea.
On her chest hung a fishbone pendant.
The pendant looked exactly like the fishbone pendant on Chen Yuan.
Could this be Chen Yue?
The more Huanhuan thought about it, the more she felt that this guess was right.
She reached out and picked up the mermaid, wanting to get her out of the lake.
However, Huanhuan’s strength was too weak now. Not to mention leaving with the mermaid, it was difficult for her to even leave this place safely.
It took a lot of effort to pick up the female mermaid, but she couldn’t swim after that.
After struggling for a long time, the two of them were still at the bottom of the lake.
Huanhuan couldn’t breathe. It was especially uncomfortable to hold her breath. She wanted to transform into the body of a silver dragon, but her body was beyond her control now and she couldn’t complete the transformation.
Just as she was about to faint from lack of oxygen, a familiar figure swam up to her.
Chen Yuan took her hand and pulled her along with the mermaid in her arms.
At this moment, Huanhuan was naked. When Chen Yuan saw her naked appearance, he was surprised to find that she was a female.
He had always thought of her as a male beast.
This was not the time to think about these things. Chen Yuan shook off the surprise in his mind and carried Huanhuan and the mermaid upstream.
When Chen Yuan saw that Huanhuan was about to faint from holding her breath, he lowered his head and blocked her lips to help her breathe.
He surfaced with them and struggled ashore.
Huanhuan lay on the ground and breathed in the fresh air.
Chen Yuan hugged the lifeless mermaid tightly. Through the thick fog, he tried to see the female in his arms clearly. He felt the urge to cry.
He had finally found his sister.
Huanhuan struggled to sit up and wiped the water off her face. It took her a while to recover.
She recalled her experience underwater and quickly called out Chen Yuan’s name.
Chen Yuan replied, “I’m here.”
The thought of a naked female sitting in front of him made him uncomfortable. Fortunately, the fog was thick, and Huanhuan couldn’t see the change in his expression.
Huanhuan immediately followed the sound, afraid that if she wasn’t careful, he would disappear again.
She tried to make conversation. “Is that mermaid your sister?”
“Yeah.”
“That’s great. You can finally take her back.”
“Yeah.”
This person sure was a man of few words. Huanhuan said slowly, “Thank you for saving me just now.”
“It’s just a small matter.”
Huanhuan said, “I looked for you everywhere after I realized you were gone. Do you know where Bai Di and Xue Ling went?”
“I don’t.”
Huanhuan endured it and couldn’t help but ask, “Can’t you say a few more words?”
Instead of answering, Chen Yuan asked, “What do you want me to say?”
“No matter what, it’s good to talk more. This damn place is too quiet. I can’t see you. If you don’t say anything, I’ll think you’re missing again.”
Chen Yuan thought for a moment. “The fog here should be poisonous.”
Huanhuan immediately echoed, “Yes, I noticed that too!”
“That’s why we have to talk less, breathe less, and reduce the chances of inhaling poisonous gas.”
Huanhuan: “…”
Damn, this conversation couldn’t go on!
Many little flying snakes appeared around her. Huanhuan immediately raised her dragon spear and rushed forward again, stabbing and crushing those guys one by one.
However, there were too many of them. Huanhuan was already lacking in strength, so she quickly could not keep up.
Chen Yuan picked up his sister. “Let’s go into the water. These flying snakes won’t enter the cold pool.”
Hearing this, Huanhuan immediately retreated and jumped into the cold pool with Chen Yuan.
The water was bone-chilling, but the truth was as Chen Yuan said. Those annoying little flying snakes stopped at the edge of the pool and did not follow them inside.
It seemed that they really couldn’t enter the cold pool.
Huanhuan and Chen Yuan could only hide in the cold pool for the time being. They planned to wait for their stamina to recover a little before Huanhuan flew into the sky with the siblings and left this place that was filled with fog.
At the same time, Xuan Wei suddenly sensed that outsiders had entered the cold pool.
He immediately transformed into a white tiger and overturned Bai Di, who was on top of him. He turned around and ran toward the cold pool.
“Stop!” Bai Di chased after him.
Xuan Wei’s leg was injured, so he ran much slower than usual. As a result, Bai Di could follow him closely and not be shaken off.
The two white tigers advanced quickly in Misty Forest.
Soon, they arrived at the edge of the cold pool.
When the flying snakes lying dormant around the cold pool saw a living creature approaching, they immediately swarmed toward Bai Di!
Xuan Wei seemed to have been ignored by them. No flying snakes attacked him. He passed through the group of flying snakes unimpeded and transformed into his human form to jump into the cold pool. He swam all the way down.
The water in the cold pool was very clear.
Xuan Wei realized that Chen Yue, who should have been lying at the bottom of the pool, was gone.
He immediately looked around for Chen Yue as if he had gone crazy.
The cold pool was not big. Xuan Wei quickly encountered Chen Yuan and Huanhuan.
Both parties had discovered each other.
Chen Yuan’s first reaction was to move to the side and shield Huanhuan behind him. After all, she was naked now. It would not be good for Xuan Wei to see her naked.
Huanhuan did not notice that she was naked at all. When she saw Xuan Wei, she was like a cat whose tail had been stepped on. She wished she could rush forward and scratch his face!
What a waste of his handsome face! He was a murderer and a corpse thief!
Xuan Wei realized that Chen Yue was in Chen Yuan’s hand and immediately swam toward him, trying to snatch her back.
How could Chen Yuan let him succeed? He swung his fishtail and threw a huge wave at Xuan Wei!
On land, Chen Yuan’s combat strength was relatively weak, but in water, no one was his match!
Xuan Wei was pushed far away by the force of the wave.
He knew that he was no match for Chen Yuan, so he did not pester him anymore. Instead, he turned around and swam to the bottom of the pool where he broke a stone slab.
The slab shattered, revealing a bottomless hole.
The water immediately surged toward the big hole at an unstoppable speed!
The water formed a huge vortex, and Chen Yuan was also dragged into it. He hugged his sister tightly and swung his fishtail, trying to escape the vortex.
Xuan Wei took the opportunity to snatch Chen Yue’s corpse.
Seeing this, Huanhuan quickly rushed forward to stop him. The two sides fought head-on.
