Chapter 357 Loyal Partner
She looked at the sleeping little dragon, knowing it would be hungry when it woke up soon. She also knew Xia Wanqing would collapse without water. Shu Yu and Sect Leader Feng were also starting to feel unwell...
She began to get anxious, not knowing what to do next. Xia Wanqing on her back seemed to be getting heavier and heavier, almost suffocating her.
The wind and sand blew into her hair, and the feeling of each grain of sand mixed in her hair made her extremely irritated.
She saw Xiao Yu walk into a tavern and ask the waiter for water. The waiter gave him a jar of "water" made of sand. When it was handed to Xiao Yu, it turned into quicksand as expected.
Xu Chuchu became even more upset. Didn’t she try it just now? Why did Xiao Yu have to repeat it?
"It's so annoying! What the hell is going on!" Sect Master Feng behind him kicked the sand impatiently.
The sand flew onto Shu Yu's legs, and he immediately became annoyed: "Don't you have eyes? Where are you kicking?! Black Dragon has no manners!"
"I have no manners, I'm going to kick you in the face!" Master Feng roared.
Hearing the noisy quarrels, Xu Chuchu's head hurt even more.
She knelt in the sand and hugged her head. Xia Wanqing's body slid down from behind her, but she didn't feel any relief.
A trace of rational consciousness in her mind told her that this was not how she should be, and they must have been interfered with by a special force.
But the feelings of irritability and despair grew stronger and stronger, almost completely overshadowing reason.
What should she do… after coming this far, should she stop here?
She felt herself sinking deeper and deeper, nearly collapsing, when suddenly a pair of hands grabbed her wrists.
"Chu Chu, it's me." Xiao Yu whispered softly in her ear.
The voice made her feel a little better, and the hands were steady and strong, not trembling like hers.
"Take a rest, don't be anxious." Xiao Yu said this again, then stood up.
He carefully helped Xia Wanqing lie down aside and passed some spiritual power to her to save her life.
He then said to the quarreling Shu Yu and Sect Master Feng, "Calm down for a moment. We have a clue and it can be resolved immediately."
Hearing that there was a solution, the two men were obviously relieved, looked at each other, and fell silent.
Finally, he caught Wuwu who had flown far away to build a sand castle.
Xiao Yu returned to Xu Chuchu and said, "Okay, you see, everyone is getting better again. It's not that there is no solution."
All the noise disappeared, Xia Wanqing would be fine, and Xu Chuchu, like everyone else, had calmed down a lot.
"But, what can you do?" she asked Xiao Yu weakly.
Xiao Yu slowly took her hand away from her head and gently held her face.
"Chu Chu, look at me." He said softly.
Xu Chuchu subconsciously opened her eyes and looked directly into the eyes of Xiao Yu, her partner.
After being busy for so many days, how long has it been since she looked at Xiao Yu so positively and attentively?
At this time, his long hair, like everyone else's, became messy and a little rough due to the influence of wind and sand.
There is also a strand of hair falling down from one side mischievously, which does not look awkward but casual.
Even in this environment, his face was still extremely handsome, with a warm curve at the corner of his mouth.
His eyes were clear and focused, reflecting her appearance.
Only her appearance.
These eyes neither have the arrogance of when they first met, nor the evil nature of later times, but only the gentleness and determination of now.
Looking at these eyes, Xu Chuchu didn't know why, but she felt herself slowly waking up.
Xiao Yu put his fingers into her hair and carefully removed the sand that was stuck in her hair. Xu Chuchu's head felt lighter.
"Come, get up and take a rest." Xiao Yu helped her up and walked to a bench placed at the door of the tavern.
"Sit on the bench and take a rest." He said again.
"What?" Xu Chuchu was a little confused. "You can't sit on this. It's made of sand."
Xiao Yu smiled at her and said, "If I say it's okay, then it's okay. I just cast a spell on it."
Xu Chuchu still didn't believe it: "You have been with me all the time, how can you cast a spell? Besides, you only know a few spells, I can recite them all."
"Then I'll sit down and show you." Xiao Yu turned around and sat on one side of the sofa bench, and surprisingly he didn't collapse.
"How did you do that?" Xu Chuchu was amazed and turned around and slowly sat down.
Everything here should be empty. The buns she "bought" turned into quicksand when she held them in her hands, and the "jar of water" Xiao Yu asked for turned into the same thing. Why was this stool...
She sat down without any preparation, passed through the sand layer directly, and sat down on the ground with a plop.
I heard Xiao Yu's muffled laughter beside me. I turned around and saw that he was not sitting on the stool at all. He was just maintaining this weird posture on the bench!
"Okay, you're playing tricks on me!" Xu Chuchu was both angry and amused.
Xiao Yu laughed so hard that she couldn't stand anymore, and fell beside Xu Chuchu, splashing sand onto her. Her hair, which had just been combed, was covered with sand again.
"How can you be so bad!" Xu Chuchu laughed and grabbed a handful of sand and threw it at Xiao Yu.
Xiao Yu didn't run away either. He just smiled sullenly and let Xu Chuchu "bully" him.
Wu Wu felt relieved watching this, and he also picked up some sand with his little paws and threw it at Xiao Yu, specifically targeting the back of his neck, so that the sand would slide down the back of his collar and into his clothes.
Sect Leader Feng and Shu Yu, who were standing nearby, were also amused by them.
Shu Yu: "Two three-year-old children."
Sect Leader Feng: "How much stronger are you? Four years old?"
Shu Yu: "I am at least three and a half years old."
…
The oppressive atmosphere surrounding them seemed to be blown away by a gust of wind.
Xu Chuchu felt a lot more relaxed, even her breathing became fresher instead of mist filled with sand.
"Chu Chu." Xiao Yu pulled her into his arms and hugged her tightly. "Chu Chu, remember, you are never alone. No matter what happens, I will be with you."
Xiao Yu had said similar words countless times, but when Xu Chuchu heard it, she still couldn't control herself and her vision became blurred.
Commitment, trust, companionship, a sense of security... Xiao Yu can give her so much.
Never betray, never leave, always keep her in your heart.
If it were a few years ago, she would never have believed that there would be such a loyal partner.
Now she has it.
"Xiao Yu, Xiao Yu!" She put her arms around his neck and held him tightly.
She didn't know what to say, so she just kept calling his name over and over again.
There are crying, laughing and cherishing.
…
Another gust of wind blew, and everything around suddenly changed.
The wind was not strong, but it carried away the dust and sand.
All the dust.
Everything covered under the yellow sand gradually returned to its original appearance.
