Chapter 665 “She’s a Good Person (1)”
It’s unsure if it’s the reassuring words there, or just her confidence under the stressful situation, but’s definitely helping in calming everyone down.
“That’s right! With Miss Mu Leng by our side, there’s no problem!”
“Everyone can stop worrying. There’s no way the creature that’s rocking the boat is a dragon. If anything, its probably just some dumb fish who didn’t know its place.”
Various murmurs have started to grow stronger until it eventually formed a wave of support. Taking this opportunity to ride the tide, the high standing woman points her attention to Bai Yan’s party again: “Sister Huan Yin, hurry and come to me. If you stay by my side then I can protect you.”
As for the womanizer….
Although he’s a self-centred individual who only likes to play with women, Mu Leng has no illusion about the man’s strength. A King Rank at the age of thirty was in every right a powerhouse who’s only second to his older brother Yun Feng. Definitely a target to win over when trouble’s around the corner.
Huan Yin naturally refused the offer by shaking her head profusely. She’s not so ungrateful as to abandon her savior so she’s clinging hard onto Bai Yan’s hand right now.
“If so then I can’t do anything about that anymore. Those who wish to follow me should come to my side now. If anything happens in a bit, I will use all my power to protect them from whatever happens.” Putting on a helpless face, the high standing woman makes it sound like she’s their own savior and option.
And sure enough, everyone moved to her side like cattle being herded into a pen. Only by being beside her did they feel any sense of security.
After seeing the choices of these people, Mu Leng’s lip had inexplicably curled into a open grin as she confronted the man to join her. “Brother Xun Huan, since these people were invited here by us then its our duty to protect them together. The miss over there isn’t willing to come to me so I can’t do anything about that. However, we have a responsibility to help these who does wish for our help.” Even in the face of the second young lord of the Misty Fairy House, the woman’s air still carried a level of arrogance like she’s just as superior.
So what if he’s a King Rank? I’m only twenty-six this year so its just a matter of time before I exceed him. I bet I can even become a Monarch Rank in just a few years at this rate!
The womanizer didn’t answer right away as expected. Instead he’s now shooting his supposed partner for the event a glance before shifting it back to Bai Yan’s body. Those eyes were peachy when landing on the latter. “You alone should be enough to protect those around you. I will stay and keep this lady company since she is still a guest after all.”
The river boat was mainly divided into two compartments here. Since Mu Leng wanted to play the dividing faction card now of all times, it has come into a situation where two underlying parties made up the entirety of the guest list. And since the compartments were closed off by a wall, it would be difficult to lend a hand when one side faces trouble.
Against the open opposition and refusal to do as she wished, the high standing woman immediately took this as a form of insult to her ego. Clenching that fist, she was just ready to say some more swaying words when the boat got rocked again by some sort of impact.
Now things were becoming increasingly distressful to the point where the crowds have started to lose their balance.
“Look out!”
Suddenly, the womanizer noticed a huge tail that’s covered in scales shooting into the cabin to make a grab for a person.
“Hold it!” Mu Ling actually grew furious and snapped after seeing a monster appearing. This was tantamount to being slapped in the face because she did proclaim there couldn’t possibly be a monster in the river.
Perhaps aware of the oncoming attack from the third party, the creature swimming underneath the water actually surfaced its head to reveal its true face. There are two horns on the head, with scaly skin that glistened under the sunlight, this creature looked downright ferocious with its sharp canine teeth barring at the impudent wench.
Dr-Dragon?
