Chapter 41.1 : Water Edge Kingdom Visits

The Tranquil Abode now looked almost completely different. Besides the large swathes of herb beds in the yard having been tended to become more dazzlingly beautiful, the originally intricate weave of dried branches and vines had been completely cleaned up, giving the entire place a brand new look.

In the little courtyard that had been exquisitely and tastefully cleaned up, a soft lounge had been placed. A young lady in a white dress laid upon it, lazily basking in the sun with one hand resting over her forehead, in unbelievable contentment.

A white blur fleeted in at incredible speed from a certain direction in a flash, the blurry shadow so fast it was hard for the naked eye to even see, but was caught between two fingers by the young lady.

[Look at what this is!]

It was a beautiful Snow Toad, its entire body snowy white, a little creature the size of a baby's palm. Its two large sparkling eyes were highly intelligent, its four limbs kicking and struggling incessantly in the air, looking pleadingly at the smiling person in front of its face.

Qing Yu propped herself up from the soft lounge and squeezed the little creature in her hand a little. "Where have you gone to get wild these past few days hmm? To think you still knew well enough to come back. I had thought that you had gone out to look for food, why have you not eaten and come back here skinnier?"

The Snow Toad blinked its eyes innocently. [I have always been so slim you know?]

It was just thinking to protest when it suddenly recalled something important, and it immediately couldn't care any less that it was in currently in such a humiliating position, squeezed in the hand of that person. It then waved its short little limbs while opening and closing its mouth like it was trying to say something. To the eyes of any other person, the little creature would merely look like it was up to its tricks by trying to look adorably helpless.

But Qing Yu was able to understand what it was saying.

The pair of alluring upslanted phoenix like eyes then perked up with interest. [Things were becoming more and more interesting!]

"Alright. Seeing that you brought back useful information, I'll let you off." Qing Yu curled up her lips, breaking into a highly gentle smile. She released her grip and the Snow Toad then fell onto its behind on the ground, caught completely off guard. It was just about to throw a fit when it heard that melodious voice drift over sinisterly. "I heard that a Snow Toad's body contains all kinds of great precious effects. I wonder what they taste like double boiled?"

The little creature on the ground shivered, and then quickly turned over to pretend to play dead, not moving an inch. But in its heart, it was shedding tears. [How harsh it is! ? Life is just so harsh~]

Ever since that big incident happened at the New Moon Lake that day, as the Crown Prince, Xuanyuan Che had immediately gone back to the palace to report the matter, and he was almost certain that the Duke of Vast Seas and the Ninth Princess Yue Xin Yan were already in the Green Wave Kingdom.

But why had they delayed coming to the palace? That was a point that many people felt was rather unfathomable.

The people were all guessing in their hearts, whether they were carrying out some secret investigation, and after getting a clear picture, they would then declare war upon the Green Wave Kingdom.

The Green Wave Emperor was seen to deeply troubled, his face melancholy and depressed. The words Duke of Vast Seas were like a cancer, that made him feel hatred and terror, but could not afford to show him wary respect.

Despite the fact that the people over on this side had thought up a million and one possibilities to be the reason that the Duke of Vast Seas had brought forward his arrival unannounced without showing himself, the man in question himself had actually come two days earlier merely to handle some personal affairs.

And on this trip here, he had only brought along two people with him, Yue Xin Yan and Ah Jin. As the other people from the Water Edge Kingdom had not even reached, so he had not yet gone to the Imperial Palace to seek an audience with the Emperor.

Afterall, with one as the Duke and the other a princess of their kingdom, they could not possibly show up without an official delegation. The rest of the Water Edge's delegation would reach the Green Wave's Imperial Capital in about another one day and a half, and that would be the best time for them to present themselves to the Emperor in the palace.

But. For Qing Ye Li who had stayed in the Afterlife Loft for the past three days, he had not received anything fruitful from it.
