The Lucky Bride Is Pretty And Delicate Novel - Chapter 529
529 Black Python (Part 2)
If there was nothing wrong, then the flood in Jiangzhou would be fixed in no time. Most importantly, the commoners would not have to suffer any longer.
How many villages had been flooded, how much food had been destroyed, and how many people had been displaced. Looking at the disaster in Jiangzhou, Wei Shilai was worried sick.
Liu Sanniang nodded. “Alright, I’ll go and take a look tomorrow.”
After leaving the magistrate’s mansion, Liu Sanniang and Chu Yan returned to the inn.
!!
It was still a cloudy day, but it did not rain. Compared to the rain that had been pouring non-stop for the past month, this was already a good sign.
In the afternoon, Chu Yan went out to buy some food.
Not long after dinner, it darkened.
After washing up, Liu Sanniang and Chu Yan went to bed.
At night, Liu Sanniang was woken up by someone. She opened her eyes and saw the woman in the room looking at her. The woman was dressed in black. Her long hair reached her waist, and on both sides of her face were thin scales.
Liu Sanniang looked at her. The woman said with a bitter smile, “Miss Liu, long time no see.”
As soon as the woman spoke, Liu Sanniang recognized her. She looked at her and said, “Granny Zhou, you…”
The woman was Granny Zhou, the python. However, now that she had appeared in her original appearance, Granny Zhou’s body had probably been destroyed.
“Miss Liu, you must have guessed it already. The body I possessed was destroyed. After leaving Yong County, I went to Kongtong Sect. Zhou Yunyi was the Saintess of Kongtong Sect. I was very confident that she would return to Kongtong Sect. However, I couldn’t find Zhou Yunyi. Instead, I was killed by those elders of Kongtong Sect.”
At this point, the woman’s eyes were filled with hatred. “Due to your reminder, I left a soul outside to prevent myself from dissipating completely. I fled to Jiangzhou and met a thousand-year-old flood dragon. Her golden body was destroyed and she failed to transcend the tribulation. When she was on her last breath, she gave me her body and entrusted a task to me. She wanted me to find out who destroyed her golden body. She only gave me two months. The flood dragon will scatter its cultivation to increase the water level to drown Jiangzhou.”
Liu Sanniang looked at her. “So the flood dragon in Jiangzhou is you now.”
The woman nodded. “It’s me, but it’s not me. I haven’t completely fused with the flood dragon, so I can’t stop it. I can only watch as the flood dragon pours down the water.”
The woman knelt down. “Miss Liu, please save me. If I still can’t find out who destroyed her golden body in two months, the flood dragon will submerge the entire Jiangzhou. Tens of thousands of people will be displaced. Ever since I gained intelligence, I’ve never told anyone my name. My name is Liu Yuanyuan. If you can save me, I’m willing to be by your side for the rest of my life, to protect you as well as your family.”
In the world, other than cultivators, there were also mortals. They would invite spiritual beings with high cultivation into the house. Mortals worshiped them, which could help the spiritual being cultivate. The spiritual beings were responsible for protecting the mortals.
Liu Yuanyuan did not like the secular world and only wanted to cultivate in the mountains. However, she was unlucky. During her cultivation, she was captured by Zhou Yunyi who fused with her. After being helped and set free by Liu Sanniang, she wanted to take revenge on Zhou Yunyi. Snakes were vengeful. As long as she was not dead, she would think of ways to take revenge.
In cultivation, one’s Dao heart was important.
Spiritual beings also valued Dao heart. If they had an obsession during their cultivation, their cultivation would stagnate. That was why she risked her life to go to Kongtong Sect to extract revenge from Zhou Yunyi.
It was not easy for her to have this opportunity to obtain hundreds of years of cultivation from the flood dragon. She did not want to miss this opportunity. She still had a revenge to take. If Liu Sanniang could help her, she was willing to stay by Liu Sanniang’s side and serve her.
Liu Yuanyuan looked at Liu Sanniang and hugged her legs. “Unless you agree to help me, I won’t get up.”
Liu Sanniang looked at her and the corners of her mouth twitched. She was still not used to it. In her impression, Liu Yuanyuan looked like Granny Zhou, old and emaciated, but now she had become a young woman…
Liu Yuanyuan said, “Miss Liu, there are also many benefits to having me as your servant. When you are thousands of miles away from home, if anything happens to your family, I can instantly return to your family to ensure their safety.”
After gaining intelligence, she had also thought of going to the mortal world to become a house spirit for mortals. However, she abandoned this thought after observing several families. Even kind-hearted people would gradually be corrupted and become greedy.
The more Liu Yuanyuan thought about it, the more disappointed she was in the mortal world.
Liu Yuanyuan gradually let go of Liu Sanniang.
Liu Sanniang finally responded. “After the investigation is done, I’ll take you in. I don’t have any other requests. I just hope that you can keep my family safe.”
Her family had always been what Liu Sanniang was most worried about. If they had Liu Yuanyuan’s protection, they would be safer.
Liu Yuanyuan was delighted. “Thank you, Miss Liu.”
Liu Yuanyuan stood up happily and looked at Liu Sanniang. “Miss Liu, many masters have come from the capital and set up an altar outside the city, making me suffer, but it’s actually useless. That talisman only temporarily restrained the flood dragon, but it can’t be subdued. There are only 25 days left until the two-month deadline.”
Liu Yuanyuan had now fused with the flood dragon, so Xia Qiluo’s ritual made Liu Yuanyuan feel extreme pain. However, she was not Xia Qiluo’s match, so she did not show herself till now.
Liu Sanniang looked at Liu Yuanyuan. “I’ll go and take a look tomorrow.”
Liu Yuanyuan looked at Liu Sanniang. “Miss Liu, can I sleep beside you?”
There was a very special aura around Liu Sanniang. It was very comfortable. Last time, she could feel it, but she was too obsessed with taking revenge. At that time, she did not want to have too much to do with Liu Sanniang. However, now that she was about to become Liu Sanniang’s house spirit, it was only right for her to get closer to Liu Sanniang.
Liu Sanniang looked at Liu Yuanyuan speechlessly.
She wanted to refuse.
Liu Yuanyuan could tell that Liu Sanniang wanted to say no to her. She transformed into a small snake the size of a thumb to show that she would not take up any space.
Liu Sanniang said calmly, “Alright.”
