Chapter 16: Run away, someone wants to kill you!
Jun Yue Lan’s gentle stroking gradually calmed Jiang Li’s anxious heart. Just then, the seaweed surrounding Xiao Jie suddenly made a rustling sound. The two turned their heads to look. They saw a group of little seahorses emerging from the seaweed, tiny balls constantly drifting outwards. “Xiao Jie has given birth!” Jiang Li and Jun Yue Lan walked towards Xiao Jie together. They saw Xiao Jie, who had just given birth, emerging from the seaweed.
His face was pale and weak, his eyes were half-open, and he looked exhausted. “Xiao Jie, are you alright?” Jiang Li asked with concern. Xiao Jie shook his head slightly, even speaking was weak. “It’s nothing serious, I’ll probably have to rely on you two for a while.” Sea horses are very weak for a while after giving birth, they need to find a safe place to rest, otherwise they will be attacked and swallowed. So every time he gave birth, he would drag his tired body to find Jun Yue Lan and ask him to take him in for a while. “Okay, don’t worry, we’ll take care of it.
” Jun Yue Lan replied. Xiao Jie curled his lips, revealing a weak smile. “Thank you.” After dropping these two words, he closed his eyes and fell into a tired sleep. Jun Yue Lan had prepared a small seashell bed for Xiao Jie in advance. He put the sleeping Xiao Jie on it, while Jiang Li carefully held the newly born seahorses in her hands and placed them next to Xiao Jie. She counted roughly and there were fifteen in total. Jun Yue Lan gently covered the seashell, leaving only a small gap. “Alright, let him rest well, he’ll be fine in a few days.”
Jiang Li nodded. Since Xiao Jie was no longer there to chat with, Jiang Li’s life became even more boring. Although Jun Yue Lan would occasionally take her for a walk around, it was for the sake of her health, he wouldn’t take her to places further away, only promising to take her to play in the Sana River and see the beauty of the Sana River at night after she gave birth. When Jun Yue Lan wasn’t hunting, he would always be by Jiang Li’s side, cuddling her.
Even when Jiang Li kept pushing him away, he would always be able to brazenly come forward. The difference in strength between the two was huge, and after a while, Jiang Li just let him be. But when he was hunting, Jiang Li would always sleep for a while and wait for him to come back. She also thought about asking Jun Yue Lan to get more food back and store it, so that he wouldn’t have to run back and forth every day. But he said, “The Starfish Elder said that fresh food is the most nutritious, as long as it’s what my sister likes, I’m not afraid of being tired.”
Although it was a simple sentence, it was a huge blow to Jiang Li, who had never had a boyfriend in modern times! Especially when she met those firm and handsome eyes, Jiang Li’s heart skipped a beat. No, no, if she kept looking, she was afraid she couldn’t control herself. Just as Jiang Li yawned for the Nth time and was about to fall asleep, Jun Yue Lan was about to leave to hunt again. Before leaving, Jun Yue Lan gently kissed her forehead, his voice was very gentle and affectionate, “Sister, you sleep for a while, I’ll have delicious food when I come back.”
Jiang Li nodded and softly “Hmm”ed. Even though she was very sleepy, she still watched Jun Yue Lan leave. When his figure gradually disappeared, Jiang Li lay down on her back, ready to take a nap. But the baby in her belly suddenly started to move around.
The frequency of the fetal movement made her a little scared and instantly made her unable to sleep and wake up. After all, the baby in her belly was always very quiet, only moving slightly after she had eaten and drank, why was it moving so fast now? This gave her a bad feeling. Was something wrong with the baby? Jiang Li panicked and sat up, gently touching her round belly with both hands. “What’s wrong with you? Is something wrong?
” As soon as Jiang Li finished speaking, the system’s voice appeared in her head. “Host, host, can you hear me?” The system’s loud and noisy voice was about to explode in her head, how could she not hear it? “I can hear you.” Jiang Li frowned and gently rubbed her temples with her hand, only then did her head feel better. “Keep your voice down, you’re giving me a headache.” Hearing this, the system’s voice lowered, but its tone still couldn’t hide its panic.
“Host, run away, someone is going to kidnap and kill you!” As soon as these words came out, Jiang Li’s eyes widened instantly, her black pupils contracted sharply. “What are you saying? Who? Who wants to kill me?” Jiang Li panicked and hurriedly asked the system. “Don’t ask that now, just run away, I’ll tell you later.” The system paused for a moment and then silently added, “Forget it, you’d better not run, they’re already at the door.” “What? So fast!”
“Don’t talk about this now, host, according to our previous agreement, I’ll give you fifty points of spiritual power, you protect yourself and survive first!” “Last time? Does that mean I won the assessment?” “It’s kind of, but not really…” “Huh? What do you mean?” “They’re coming, I’m going to run away first, host, you’re on your own!”
After the system finished speaking, all Jiang Li could hear in her head was “Beep – beep -“. Then she felt a warm current flowing down her head and slowly spreading throughout her body. Good heavens, what kind of system did she encounter? How come it ran faster than her when something happened? It said it would protect the host, how come it didn’t do anything for her? What kind of ghost transmigration is this? Sure enough, as soon as Jiang Li finished complaining about the dog system, a group of people stormed in. At the head was a male merman.
He also had blue hair and a blue tail, his appearance was four or five points similar to Jun Yue Lan, but his whole body was full of sharp and cold temperament, completely different from Jun Yue Lan’s gentle personality. Beside him floated a pufferfish, behind them were shrimp soldiers and crab generals carrying knives and forks. Wait, this pufferfish… why does it look so familiar?
“Prince Changxi, this is the female he rescued!” The pufferfish swayed its fat body and reported to the merman beside him, Jun Changxi. Jiang Li finally remembered, this pufferfish was the one that came here yesterday to peek! Jun Changxi snorted coldly, his sharp eyes narrowed slightly, like a cold light, straight at Jiang Li. Jiang Li was also frightened by his gaze and shivered, her heart couldn’t help but feel afraid. The pufferfish called him prince?
Is he the prince of the merman clan? But why is he here? Although she accidentally fell into here, she had been staying here honestly and didn’t do anything wrong! The more Jiang Li thought about it, the more afraid she became, fear spread throughout her body.
She swallowed hard, her hands involuntarily curled up. Seeing her small movements, Jun Changxi also saw her fear.
