Chapter 630: Chapter 628: You’re taking revenge on me, aren’t you?
The next day, Sally turned into a little white mouse and was sleeping soundly on Little Dot’s back.
Little Dot, worried, looked back at Sally, “Dad, what’s wrong with Mom?”
Jian, driving the mule cart out of the mountains, laughed and said, “Your mother is tired, let her rest well. Where shall we go to have fun next?”
“Hmm… I want to go to the Capital City!”
“Now Yunxi Continent is divided into four kingdoms and three dynasties, which are Chu Country, Rouran Country, Yuanfeng Country, Wu Country, Xia Dynasty, Yan Dynasty, and Liang Dynasty. Each has a Capital City. Which one do you want to go to, son?”
“I want to go to the last one, Liang Dynasty.”
“Alright, then we’ll head to the Liang Dynasty’s Capital City — Hanyang.”
The mule cart entered a spatial rift.
When it emerged again, they had arrived at the Protective Forest outside of Hanyang City.
The mule cart continued to move forward.
Sally, lying on Little Dot’s back, was not sleeping very well, and had nearly woken up when they crossed through the spatial rift.
Last night, this guy actually fed her the Divine Aphrodisiac Poisonous Fruit — Tansy Incentive, a substance that induces desire at night, and could be endured for a hundred days before being resolved.
Xiaomei couldn’t find a solution in a short while. Moreover, she was extremely interested in it and wanted to see its specific performance data.
All night, Sally was nearly tormented to death by the Poisonous Fruit.
Xiaomei was very satisfied with the data of Tansy Incentive, suggesting that they could use a larger dose on the Ancestral Dragon in the future…
Sally first put Little Dot into the System Space, and then said to Jian with icy coldness, “Give me the antidote.”
This kind of Poisonous Fruit usually had a natural antidote, and Jian surely had it.
Jian readily responded, “I gave it to you, but you didn’t want it.”
“When did you give it to me?” Sally recalled last night, how after he fed her the Tansy Incentive, he tried to have his way by force…
But she turned into a mouse form, and he was powerless against that.
Whereas she soaked in a pool all night and still couldn’t suppress the desire raging inside her, enduring until dawn when the desire finally faded.
Jian told Sally, “I ate the antidote, but it only works for three days. If you don’t consummate with me within these three days, for the remaining ninety-seven days, you either wait for Xiaomei to develop an antidote, or just endure it.”
“You!” Sally transformed back into her human form, reached out and grabbed his throat, saying fiercely, “You’re retaliating against me! Aren’t you?”
“You could see it that way, since the poison you gave me also tormented me for a full hundred days. The pain I went through compared to what you’re enduring now is like comparing heaven and earth. I’m heaven, you’re the earth.”
“Bullshit!” Sally pushed him off the mule cart with a shove.
“You brought this upon yourself, you harmed Little Beibei!” Sally glared furiously, her eyes bloodshot from a night without rest, her emotions uncontrollably irate.
Jian fell to the ground and lay flat without putting up any resistance.
The mule cart, startled, began to run wildly forward.
Sally wanted to grab the reins, but remembering the frustration from the previous night, she picked up the whip and struck the mule, which made it run even faster.
Watching the mule cart receding into the distance, Jian muttered, “That was the cost of Little Beibei breaking the Heavenly Dao’s Dark Rule, to create the sun and the moon, otherwise…”
He didn’t finish his sentence because a woman dressed in red appeared next to him. Upon seeing his face clearly, she exclaimed with astonishment, “You… you’re so handsome! Commandery Princess—”
However, in the blink of an eye, Qian vanished on the spot!
The red-clad woman looked around frantically, “Eh? Ghosts in broad daylight.”
…
Jian was back on the mule cart.
Sally didn’t chase him away again; she looked visibly exhausted and pale, with bloodshot eyes, lacking the energy to confront him.
She moved Little Dot out of the System Space and gave him a small backpack to carry. She then transformed back into a little white mouse, burrowed into the little backpack, and settled down to sleep and restore her spirit.
If Xiaomei failed to produce an antidote, she still had ninety-nine nights of torment, so resting during the day was very important.
“Return to the Holy Palace on time in two days,” Sally told Little Dot. “Mom is tired and is going to sleep for a while.”
“Mom, are you pregnant with a little baby?” Little Dot curiously asked, as he had heard Xiaoqi say that when Mom was pregnant, she might sleep a lot. n𝚘𝚟𝚙u𝚋.co𝚖
Sally gave Jian a glare.
Jian seemed completely unaffected.
“Mom is not pregnant; she’s just tired,” Sally curled up inside the backpack.
Little Dot could sense that Sally was in a bad mood, “Dad, Mom is unhappy, do you know why?”
“There were two fruits that looked alike, one good and one bad. Dad, because he was too excited, mistakenly took the wrong fruit. He gave your Mom the bad one that was meant for her instead of the good fruit. After Mom ate it, she felt very uncomfortable.”
“She was poisoned, right?” Little Dot opened the Little Storage Bag, taking out a plant resembling an orchid, a Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasure, “This is the Detoxifying Herb. I heard Brother Xiaohao say it can cure all poisons.”
“…It’s not that kind of poison,” Jian said, patting his head.
The Tansy Incentive is the Poisonous Fruit; besides causing physical discomfort, it also depletes the Divine Soul. On the other hand, the antidote will not only not harm the body but significantly nourish the Divine Soul.
Although in matters of passion, Sally had the Rejuvenation Pill to recover her physical strength, the depletion of her mental and spiritual energy needed to be restored by sleep.
So he had prepared the antidote, so Sally could fully indulge with him.
He hadn’t expected that he would mix up the two fruits because Little Dot called him ‘Dad’ and he got excited.
Sally thought he was getting back at her… All night long, she preferred to soak in the pond and even added the Ice Talisman but wouldn’t let him come close.
“Dad, do you want to know how to make Mom happy?” Little Dot whispered, moving closer to Jian.
And Sally was right inside his backpack, lowering her voice so she could also hear.
As for what Jian had just said, Sally had heard it all too.
It seemed that he had indeed grabbed the wrong fruit.
“Father Emperor would give Mom a body massage. Especially when she’s in her mouse form, Mom would laugh happily,” Little Dot replied.
That must have been when she got tickled… Jian raised his eyebrows slightly, “That’s a good idea.”
It was obviously a terrible idea! All she wanted to do now was sleep! Yet she was still grabbed from the little backpack by a warm hand.
Jian didn’t tickle Sally as Little Dot suggested, but gently massaged the acupoints on her body to relax her.
Although Sally didn’t know how he could find the precise acupoints on such a small mouse body.
While being massaged, Sally fell into a deep sleep.
Jian tucked Sally into his arms, patting Little Dot’s head, “Thank you, my son, your idea was really good.”
“You’re welcome,” Little Dot said with a small proud expression.
At the city gate, hundreds of people were queuing up to enter the city.
The mule cart stopped at the very end of the line.
Jian asked the old man in front, “Excuse me, why do we have to queue to enter the city?”
“Are you from out of town?” The old man sized up Jian, and even with his old, cloudy eyes, he couldn’t help but show a look of awe at his striking appearance.
Jian nodded, “Yes, I’m bringing my son to the Capital City to gain some experience.”
The old man looked at Little Dot and then at Jian, regretfully saying, “Your son doesn’t look much like you.”
“Hmm, he takes after his mother,” Jian replied, his eyes unable to hide his joy and doting love.
The old man shook his head, thinking the woman must be quite unattractive.
