Chapter 3139: Springing Up!
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“Unless a quilt shoots you, escaping this sea of flowers by flying alone would take 10,000 years.”
Her Excellency Lady Qiaoqiao formed an “O” with her small mouth, only closing it after a moment as she gazed down at the vast expanse of flowers. The realization struck her—had the two fools who were flung away moments ago actually discovered the correct path and left the secret realm’s entrance ahead of them?
Perhaps those two were now secretly reveling in their success, wearing smug smiles.
Lady Qiaoqiao regarded them with an indifferent expression. “Well, let’s descend.”
What other choice did they have? Aside from being propelled by the quilt, they couldn’t discern an alternative route.
Qiao Mu turned to the Holy Son. “Is this how the entrance is arranged?”
Holy Son Miyan’s expression was a mix of reluctance and amus.e.m.e.nt. Clearly, he wanted to avoid the bouncing process, but according to Duan Yue, there was no other way through.
The map seller, overhearing the conversation, made a resolute decision. Closing his eyes with the air of a brave man sacrificing, he shouted to the Holy Son, “Your Excellency! I’ll go first!”
Lady Qiaoqiao: .
With a bang, the map seller rolled into the sea of flowers, promptly getting bounced out. The rebound sent him soaring, first skyward and then far away.
“Ah!” His scream echoed as he fell back with a resounding thud, only to be promptly bounced out by the quilt again. This bizarre cycle repeated numerous times, each bounce propelling him farther away until his figure became indiscernible.
Holy Son Miyan’s once-handsome face now bore a sickly green hue.
“What kind of method is this for entering the secret realm? It’s downright absurd!” he exclaimed in frustration.
“As you can all witness, bouncing is the only way out!” the little monk explained indifferently.
Qi Xuanxuan and company exchanged dismayed glances, their faces adopting a similar shade of green as they contemplated the sea of flowers below.
Qin Jiu, eager to join the action, was about to jump down when his brother, Qin Xuan, seized him with a wry smile.
“We’re not in a hurry. Let the others have their fun first.”
The peculiar choice of words left everyone perplexed. Furthermore, it was rather unseemly for those at the forefront to display their awkward predicament to the spectators behind them.
Eldest Young Sir Qin had a point; playing from the rear enhanced the appearance of his n.o.ble status. It wouldn’t do for the Crown Prince and the Prince to make fools of themselves first. The repercussions might be dire when they returned to the capital.
With a resigned nod, they decided to let the others take the lead, hoping that the quirkiness of the bouncing process might lead them to valuable opportunities.
Eventually, some individuals leaped into the sea of flowers, bouncing away to destinations unknown.
Only Holy Son Miyan and MO Lian’s group remained, the quilts mostly flicked away.
Mu Xingchen sighed as he looked down at Mu Rouxuan, who seemed dazed and speechless. Turning his attention toward Qiao Mu, he was interrupted by Eldest Young Sir Qin.
“All right, the spectators have cleared out. What’s our plan now?”
Lady Qiaoqiao, nestled in MO Lian’s arms, looked eager to partic.i.p.ate. MO Lian, amused and slightly exasperated, restrained her movements. “Don’t move..”
