Chapter 4952: 5.0704 Looking for Her Husband, Qiao

I still feel uneasy, like my heart is unsettled.

"I'll go take a look." She walked to the spiritual artifact cabin door and told the guarding Dark Guard, "I'll just see what's happening and come right back."

"But Your Majesty instructed..."

"I'll just look at the sea surface; I won't go near the hole."

The bottomless pit of the Sacrificial Sea Abyss still gave her a bit of psychological trauma. Remembering feeling her way in the pitch-black darkness, she felt a slight aversion.

A place like that would probably drive one mad if they stayed too long.

The Dark Guard couldn't argue with the little stoic-face, nor did he dare offend her. He could only weakly open the spiritual artifact cabin door and accompany her down.

The sea surface was quite brightly illuminated by lighting pearls.

Shao Yi, leading a group of Dark Guards, was hovering near the entrance of the Sacrificial Sea Abyss.

He looked up and saw a young Dark Guard leading the little stoic-face flying down. He couldn't help but frown and glared fiercely at the young Dark Guard.

"What's going on?"

"Sha-Shao Yi sir, your, your subordinate, couldn't, couldn't dissuade Miss."

Shao Yi floated above the sea, took a step towards Qiao Mu, and bowed. "Miss, given your physical condition, it's not suitable for you to go down."

Qiao Mu nodded expressionlessly at him. "Don't worry, I won't make things difficult for you. I promised Duan Yue I wouldn't go down, and I won't break my word."

Shao Yi slightly relaxed, smiling and nodding. "Alright then, please be careful even near the cave entrance."

Qiao Mu had actually hovered around this Sacrificial Sea Abyss countless times.

Before, when she was alone, she would swim here every night from the small fishing village, sitting pitifully at the cave entrance, waiting for Qiaoqiao's Lotus.

Everyone always said she was a person of great fortune.

But in the end, she waited for a whole month and couldn't wait for her husband. What good fortune was there? There was nothing.

Lord Qiaoqiao took out a fluffy cloak from her inner world, wrapped herself snugly, and summoned her egg-shell defense shield, enclosing herself within it.

Shao Yi's mouth twitched as he saw the little girl, like a round little egg, rolling and rolling until she reached the entrance of the Sacrificial Sea Abyss. She then propped her chin on her hands and sat there motionless.

The little stoic-face's movements were especially skilled, indicating it wasn't the first time she had sat at the cave entrance in her egg-shell defense shield, waiting with bated breath.

Shao Yi had originally wanted to persuade her to return to the spiritual artifact cabin, but the words caught in his throat.

This feeling of silently waiting must be very understandable.

Although she never said a word about being worried, in reality... the little stoic-face was extremely anxious and uneasy.

Towards the latter half of the night, a light drizzle began to fall from the sky.

Shao Yi couldn't hold back and went forward to persuade her a few words.

Qiao Mu's heart grew even more worried. "Why have they been gone so long and still haven't returned?"

"Don't worry, nothing will happen."

"Looking at this rain, it seems to be getting heavier."

Shao Yi gently advised, "Miss, you should return to the spiritual artifact cabin first."

Qiao Mu looked back at the dark pit, feeling a heavy sensation in her heart.

Suddenly, a lighting pearl was thrown up from the cave entrance, swiftly ascending into the air and instantly making the surrounding lighting pearls appear even brighter.

Qiao Mu's eyes lit up, and she quickly looked down.

She saw Duan Yue leading a group of people swiftly leap onto the sea surface. At a glance, he saw Qiao Mu, wrapped in her egg-shell, and couldn't help but be stunned.

"It's so late, why aren't you resting?" Duan Yue annoyedly flicked her outer egg-shell. "Didn't you promise me you'd stay obediently in the spiritual artifact cabin and not come down?"
