Chapter 807 - Deep and poisonous love
“If men are really tigers, poisonous medicine, or a disaster, then why was he able to cure my disability?”
historical
Funing asked, turning sideways and looking at the night sky outside the window Her pretty face turned a little red, “When I looked at him, my heart when ‘badump badump’ and beat really quickly without stopping. That feeling was really weird. I can’t really use words to describe that feeling. Grand Master Mother, do you know what feeling that is?”
Heart beating quickly?
Grand Master was stunned, “Funing, you’ve already received that man’s poison. The only way is to drink the Forget Love Potion to erase all the memories you have of him.”
Funing furrowed her eyebrows, “My body is completely fine. There are no signs that indicate I’ve been poisoned.”
“Men’s poison is the poison of love. Love does not harm your physical body. It only erodes your spirit, devours your soul, and have you fall completely in love with him. As if drinking a magic potion, you will slowly lose your willpower and in the end, you will give up everything to do terrifying things for that man,” Grand Master’s voice was so loud that it echoed throughout the palace.
“Grand Master Mother, you’re worrying too much!”
Funing felt like the Grand Master was making a mountain out of a molehill. Love? There was no way she was going to receive a poison like this.
“No, I’m not. Just like you, the first Queen deeply admired a man, and in the end, the poison of love became so deep that she couldn’t control herself. She became distraught when she found out that man already had a wife and child back in his hometown. She was completely heartbroken and in complete despair. Every Queen who inherits the throne becomes the lifeline of the kingdom, and since she received such a blow, she almost buried thousands of Baiyue Nation citizens with her. In the end, she painfully drank the Forget Love Potion and forgot everything to live a new life.”
Grand Master persuaded bitterly, “After the second Queen took over, the first decree she issued was to forbid any man from entering Baiyue Nation. If a man enters, every single one has to be killed. She warned every single citizen in Baiyue Nation to stay away from men!”
“Oh.”
Funing sat on top of the steps and recalled the memories of her meeting with Xiao Luo. She completely disregarded what Grand Master just said and only gave a superficial reply.
The image of Xiao Luo grabbing her waist and flying across the sky was extremely sweet to her. As she recalled that, she displayed an innocent-looking smile on her face.
“Funing, you...”
Grand Master had experienced all sorts of things in life. She could definitely tell that romance was in the air for Funing. It was the first awakening of love, and she realized that things could get serious in that instant.
Funing stood up, reached her hands out and grabbed onto Grand Master’s wrist, “Grand Master Mother, I want to see him again. Can you please help me find him?”
Find him?
How was that possible? As soon as I see him, I’m going to erase him from this world!
Grand Master grit her teeth and thought to herself, but promised her verbally, “Alright.”
“Forget it. Let me join you and we’ll look for him together,” Funing suddenly said.
Grand Master was stun, then unhappily said, “Do you not even trust Grand Master Mother?”
“You’re misunderstanding my intentions, Grand Master Mother. I just want to see him as soon as I can,” Funing said excitedly. Even though they had only been away for a short while, but she really wanted to see Xiao Luo. She couldn’t explain why, but she just wanted to see him and look at how he always puts on that fierce-looking image.
It’s over!
The poison of love is deep. How is this possible?
Grand Master realized that there was a huge problem in front of her right now. Her mission was to protect every single Queen in Baiyue Nation, but today, this Queen, just like the first Queen, had received poison from a man. She felt like a huge disaster was about to approach Baiyue Nation.
She had to get rid of that man!
...
Xiao Luo had no idea he had been listed as a target on the Grand Master’s list. Returning to the inn, he listened to the boss’ orders and dripped some of the Queen’s tears into the water and stirred it for Duck Emperor and Ghost to drink.
Ghost hadn’t eaten too many forbidden fruits, so her stomach hadn’t grown much. Her pain disappeared quickly after drinking some of the tear-infused water. She lay on the bed and quickly fell asleep. Duck Emperor’s stomach was huge, but the effects were obvious. After drinking the tears, its stomach shrank and eventually returned to what it was originally. The nauseous feeling that one got when pregnant disappeared instantly as well.
“Screw his grandpa duck. I’ve definitely kept my reputation and integrity. Thank you, god-damn brat.” Duck Emperor breathed a sigh of relief. If a male duck like it actually lay eggs, it was going to lose all the face that it even had to begin with.
“It’ll be great if you could stop creating trouble for me in the future.” Xiao Luo glared at it.
“Sure, you’re the big brother. I’ll listen to you from now on. Right, god-damn brat, I’m feeling very hungry, can you buy me some food?” Duck Emperor said while putting its pride down.
Xiao Luo wasn’t on bad terms with it and since this stinky duck had helped him quite a bit along the way, he asked in a not-so-nice tone, “What do you want to eat?”
“Grilled exotic beast legs!”
Duck Emperor’s saliva was dripping as it recalled their time in the forest, “The mythical fox’s hind legs taste the best when grilled under the campfire. It is tender with a crispy crust, fat but not greasy. It’s the best dish just thinking about it! God-damn brat, I’m sure the forest in Baiyue Nation has mythical foxes as well. Let’s catch one and grill it. Also, don’t make it too spicy, just a little will do.”
Xiao Luo’s face turned black in that instant. He gave Duck Emperor a good kick and sent it flying. Like a ball, it slammed into the wall in the room and fell onto the ground, screaming in pain.
How can you even think of grilled mythical fox now?
And just a little spicy? Do you want to go to heaven!
Xiao Luo was extremely angry. This stinky duck was ordering him around thinking it was his uncle, so of course he was pissed.
...
The inn didn’t only provide lodging but provided food and drinks as well.
Xiao Luo didn’t head out. He directly ordered some food from the inn. The dishes he ordered were the inn’s specialties.
As the aroma of the dishes filled the room, Ghost, who was initially asleep woke up instantly. She then flew onto the table. Looking at all the food on the table, she excitedly said, “Wow, what a spread!”
After saying that, she picked up her chopsticks and bowl and began devouring the food without bothering about her own image.
“Little girl, be a little more cultured. A little more cultured. F*ck, screw his grandpa duck, I don’t care anymore.”
Duck Emperor told Ghost to be a little more cultured at first, but Ghost didn’t care, and looking at Ghost devouring all the food on the table, it began devouring all the food as well, gobbling down the food like hungry wolves fighting for food.
Xiao Luo was already used to this sort of scene. Besides being speechless and placing his hands on his forehead, all he could do was sigh.
Thankfully there was more than enough food in this inn. They called for more food as the food they originally had wasn’t enough and ended up calling three rounds of food in total before they filled up the young girl and duck’s stomach.
“Little girl, you sure can eat!” Duck Emperor rubbed its round stomach and burped while lying on the chair arrogantly.
“Duckling, you can really eat as well.” Ghost was completely full. She sat on the chair to rest, and didn’t felt like moving at all.
“I can’t eat as much as you can.”
“Tch, you can eat the most.”
“You ate the most.”
“You ate the most!”
Both of them tried to shirk responsibilities and weren’t willing to admit that they were the one who ate the most.
