2764: Vomit

Vomit

After enduring numerous trials and challenges, Hua Tao wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead and turned his gaze towards Crown Prince Mo. "It's about time! Keep it out of sight."1

Crown Prince Mo surveyed the collection of ores that had been thoroughly cleansed. He nodded begrudgingly. "Hand over your weapons for re-forging later."

Hua Tao and his companions' eyes brightened with enthusiasm, swiftly responding, "Of course." They promptly assisted the Crown Prince in stowing away the ores.

Meanwhile, the unfortunate large-headed carp was also reaching the end of its regurgitation ordeal…

With a gaping maw, the massive fish disgorged over a hundred individuals consecutively, casting an unbearable stench.

The people who tumbled out were all expelling monstrous fish, one after the other. They stared at the glaring sunlight in a daze.

(°_°)…

/What just occurred?/

/Where were they previously?/

/Why did their surroundings appear so hazy…/

Dai'er wiped her face clean with her sleeve, her expression twisted in revulsion as she observed the repulsive slime on her hand. She then shifted her gaze to the towering two-tael-meter-tall monstrous fish behind her, her mouth agape in astonishment.

/This?/ /This?/

/Since when did this monstrous fish arrive here?/

In truth, they remained oblivious to the recent events.

Upon receiving intelligence from reconnaissance mercenaries, Dai'er hastened to their designated location with her team.

During their journey, an unexpected gust of wind suddenly assailed them. Caught off guard and without time to put up defenses, they found themselves inexplicably drawn in by a powerful suction force.

This inhalation entered the big-headed carp's stomach.

This big-headed carp spit out more than the hundred people from the Dai'er Mercenary Group.

In addition, the Zhongli Estate's contingent was also present.

The Second Young Lady of the Zhongli family was currently letting out piercing screams. She used her sleeve to wipe the vomit off her head, her vision growing dim as if she might faint.

/Goodness, this is beyond repulsive./

Witnessing her hands and body coated in the vile mess, Zhongli Zhiwei let out a high-pitched exclamation, seizing a water spiritual cultivator from her clan. "Quickly! Quickly! Cleanse yourself, come on, hurry!"

Zhongli Zhiwei was practically hopping with anger, her embarrassing predicament fully exposed.

Meanwhile, a composed young woman standing beside her walked away without uttering a word. She swiftly rid herself of the filth and changed into a somewhat cleaner outer robe.

Although her body was still soiled from lack of proper bathing, she suppressed her annoyance, refraining from letting out the wild cries that Zhongli Zhiwei and company were indulging in. It was as if the universe was indifferent to her existence.

"By the heavens, what sort of grotesque thing is this! Ah! Are these intestines? Ahhh!" How could such a repugnant mass be hanging from her head?

Zhongli Zhiwei's vision blurred, her screams having persisted since she emerged from the fish's belly.

Qiao Mu's head throbbed from the cacophony, and the baleful glint in her eyes flared as she snapped, "Silence!!"

An instant hush fell over the surroundings, every gaze turning towards her.

Zhongli Zhiwei, a heap of vomit still atop her head, stared at Qiao Mu in disbelief. She protested, "You, you? What are you doing here?"

She realized with a delay that Crown Prince Mo was busy gathering a heap of ores on the side. Unable to contain herself, she exclaimed, "Is that, Your Highness??"

Without a moment's hesitation, Qiao Mu brandished the washboard in her hand and charged forward.

Duan Yue didn't manage to catch her in time.

Observing the young one dashing toward Zhongli Zhiwei, Qiao Mu's irritation surged, culminating in a strike from her washboard against Zhongli Zhiwei.

The entire scene left everyone thoroughly exasperated.
