My Crown Prince Consort Is a Firecracker! - Chapter 1061
Chapter 1061: An Oddball Gatekeeper
Dou Fengchi and the others behind her were agitated when they saw this. Aiyah, if the crown prince consort entered first, then wouldn’t she be gaining all the benefits?
They watched as that small agile figure slid into the white circle of light all at once.
Dou Fengchi, Ying Jian, and the others all kicked at the water frantically.
However, even though their activated defensive barriers could block out the water, the deeper they swam, the greater the water pressure. Hence, they could only coast down very slowly.
At this time, everyone felt that their defensive barriers were about to burst.
Little Sixth Zheng and Baili Wu were the first to make it to the circle of light, and they slid towards it in relief.
Once they slipped past the light, they entered free-fall.
Pulled down by gravity, their bodies plummeted.
Shocked by this development, Little Sixth Zheng and Baili Wu protected their bodies with mystic energy, doing their utmost to stabilize their speed of descent.
Boom! Baili Wu’s fist hit the ground, and he crouched while sighing in relief.
Little Sixth Zheng’s situation was a bit better than his. Upon landing, he stabilized himself after merely wobbling left and right several times.
When he looked up, he saw an entrance to a valley that looked like an inverted gourd, and verdant foliage entered his sight.
He then saw a gray giant ape sitting at the entrance like a small hill, and it just so happened to be blocking up the gourd valley entrance.
Jingle! Jangle… The sound of light, fragmented jingles accompanied a newcomer’s arrival.
On the other hand, Sikong Fuling’s slender figure appeared beside that pool of water, and she studied it with a smile. “So the entrance is here.”
“Yes, Your Eminence.” A veiled female cupped her hands in a bow. “Does Your Eminence wish to enter right now?”
“I detest water the most. It makes my clothes dripping wet every time.” Sikong Fuling grumbled softly, but she had already entered the water in a blur.
Meanwhile, Dou Fengchi, Qin Susu, Hong Bawei, Ying Jian, Wei Nanshu, etc., all entered this tranquil and luxuriantly green valley after treading into the circle of light.
They naturally also saw this gray giant ape that just so happened to block up the entrance.
Dou Fengchi practically shifted her gaze toward Qiao Mu at once.
The crown prince consort was the first to enter the valley, yet what was she doing?
She was leisurely sitting on top of a big rock, gnawing on a corn cob…
She had already finished half of the corn cob, obviously showing that she had started eating it before they had even arrived!
After blinking her eyes, Baili Zhen giggled while covering her mouth. “Miss Qiao, why aren’t you thinking of a way to get in, instead eating here nonstop?”
Qiao Mu cast her an unconcerned glance. “I’m a bit hungry.”
It was true. Just now, she swam across the pool with no worries, but she felt her belly growling in hunger upon entering this secret realm.
Was it because fusing with water expended water spiritual energy, and she unwittingly expended a bit too much?
This, however, was merely her own conjecture, so it wasn’t accurate.
As for the specific cause, she had no idea.
In any case, she’d just eat since she was hungry!
After she finished gnawing on this corn cob, Qiao Mu took out a banana from her inner world.
Just as she peeled some of the skin, she heard a shuffling sound from up ahead. That giant ape had shifted its butt to the side, exposing a small path that only allowed one person to pass.
Qiao Mu’s hand just froze in the middle of peeling the banana as she gazed at that giant ape in astonishment.
