Chapter 133 Sneaking into Country A
Inside the expensive crystal coffin lies a sleeping beauty.
Today marks the sixth day since Sleeping Beauty passed away.
She will wake up tomorrow.
No one knew this secret except for Xia Yue.
However, to Xia Yue's surprise, after so many days, Mo Xiao still showed no intention of having a water burial.
If this continues, we'll be exposed.
Xia Yue was a little anxious and even went to urge her personally, saying, "If we don't give her a water burial soon, her soul will not be able to rest in peace, let alone meet God."
"It's better not to see God. Her body is mine, and her soul is mine. I would rather her soul come to me."
Mo Xiao has been looking very dejected these past few days, and his once handsome and dashing pirate captain demeanor is no longer visible on his face.
Instead, he seemed like a颓废 (颓废 is a difficult word to translate directly, but it implies a sense of listlessness, apathy, or a lack of motivation) middle-aged man, unable to muster any enthusiasm for anything.
Xia Yue knew this person was very stubborn, so she could only continue to persuade him, "If you don't think about Bai Yan, you should at least think about yourself. You are very famous on the wanted list."
In the past few days, several groups of assassins have come looking for you, and one even almost set fire to Baiyan's body.
You need to resolve these matters quickly and continue your conquest of the stars, otherwise you won't be able to maintain your position.
Mo Xiao kept his head down. Since Bai Yan left, he had lost interest in the conflicts outside.
He even considered giving up entirely, but then he was buried in water with the white smoke.
However, Mo Xiao held a high position, and he had thousands of pirates under his command who depended on him for their livelihood.
Besides piracy, he also runs many other businesses.
More importantly, he still has a shameful secret that hasn't been exposed.
He can't afford to delay any longer.
"Yanyan, wait for me a little longer. I'll come find you after I've sorted everything out."
Mo Xiao gently stroked the ice coffin and began preparing for the water burial.
Xia Yue timed it perfectly, and while Mo Xiao was away, she quietly opened the ice coffin and gave Bai Yan the antidote.
Finally, place a miniature life-saving device under Bai Yan's body.
Once the water burial officially begins, an ice coffin is hoisted by a boat.
People stood on the boat, remembering those who had passed away.
The ice coffin was suspended by ropes and slowly sank to the bottom of the valley.
During this process, when Mo Xiao saw the ice coffin completely disappear from the sea surface, he wanted to jump down, but fortunately his subordinates pulled him back.
Xia Yue felt a little guilty seeing how infatuated Mo Xiao was.
This man actually loved Baiyan very much, but he just couldn't find the right way to express it, and instead they became a resentful couple.
Since she's on Bai Yan's side, she can't sympathize too much with Mo Xiao.
As Mo Xiao was helped into the boat to rest, Xia Yue also took her leave.
"Leader Mo Xiao, I am very grateful for your care during this time, but Yan Yan is gone now, and I think my mission should also come to an end. Please let me leave."
"Okay," Mo Xiao replied weakly.
Without the white smoke, it was like losing the will to live; he was now no different from a walking corpse.
Xia Yue left Mo Xiao a Hundred Spirit Pill, saying, "This is a medicine that can cure all poisons. I hope you will never need to use it."
Mo Xiao didn't look at the pills; he actually wished he could just die from poisoning someday.
"Leader Mo Xiao, farewell."
"Wait a moment."
As Xia Yue turned around, Mo Xiao finally snapped out of his daze and called out to her.
Having done something humble, Xia Yue turned back somewhat uneasily, "Is there anything else you need?"
"You've taken care of her for me during this time, so consider this a thank you gift."
After Mo Xiao finished speaking, he asked his subordinate to bring a box.
Xia Yue opened it and found a set of gold needles inside!
It's exactly the same as the gold needles she always uses!
“You seem to use this kind of needle to treat people often, so I sent someone to look for similar needles and found this one.”
"It's no use for me anymore, so I'll give it to you."
Xia Yue didn't speak. She immediately took out the gold needles and examined them carefully. Finally, she excitedly gripped the gold needles tightly.
She wasn't mistaken; this was her master's technique!
Back then, the master hired skilled craftsmen and spent a lot of money to make two sets, one for her.
The other set was prepared for his senior brother, but when Gu Chen came that time, something happened and he had a fight with the master, so the master kept it for himself.
"Where did you get this?" Xia Yue asked loudly.
“I bought this box of gold needles on the black market in Country A. It’s worth millions. I wouldn’t have bought it if it weren’t useful to you.”
"Do you know who the seller is?" Xia Yue continued to press.
"I don't know about that. Black market transactions keep the identities of both buyers and sellers highly confidential. Even if you try to find out from the black market, you won't find any clues."
In country A, there is no such thing as legal or illegal; power and money are the only hard currency.
The fact that these words came from Mo Xiao, the pirate leader, was all the more ironic.
Xia Yue carefully put away the golden needles and thanked Mo Xiao again.
After doing all this, Xia Yue left.
She had to find Bai Yan quickly; any further delay and her feigned death would turn into a real one.
A few hours later.
On a secluded coastline.
The moonlight shone on the sea, which still shimmered.
Xia Yue used a dry towel to wipe Bai Yan's body.
Bai Yan sneezed several times, but her face was beaming with excitement.
She hadn't laughed this happily in a long time.
"Yueyue, he really believes me! I can really be free this time!" Bai Yan exclaimed excitedly.
While congratulating her friend, Xia Yue urged Bai Yan to hurry up and put on her clothes.
Although he has broken away from Mo Xiao, the question remains: what path should he take next?
