Chapter 3029 Mentally Contorted Guy
Could it be that Qiao Mu had managed to evade the clutches of several corpse crocodiles?
The swiftness of her movements in the water seemed rather peculiar.
Holy Daughter Nie Yaoguang's eyes glowed with an incredulous scarlet light. She paddled forward and simultaneously ordered more zombie crocodiles to pursue Qiao Mu.
As Qiao Mu swam further, her movements became more fluid and confident. Her small arms glided through the water, allowing her to steadily drift with the current.
Internally, she couldn't help but muse, "This Holy Daughter is truly deranged. Her Exquisite Ball wasn't destroyed by Her Excellency Lady Qiaoqiao. Was it necessary to chase her down out of sheer embarrassment?"
Previously, Lian had mentioned that the Exquisite Ball was crafted from high-quality materials but was marred by a subpar artisan's technique, making it incapable of withstanding a substantial load. Thus, it was impossible for Holy Daughter to attempt to collect numerous formidable saber-toothed long fish. The Exquisite Ball's self-detonation had been inevitable, which was why her group had initially been prepared to scavenge any surviving fish.
Holy Daughter had inadvertently blown herself up, and, unable to vent her anger, had senselessly targeted Her Excellency Lady Qiaoqiao. It was simply irrational!
Qiao Mu propelled herself further and further away, continuously paddling through the water. In the dimly lit expanse of the Spring River, she found herself uncertain about their exact direction. Although the logical route would have led them toward Red River Canyon, the current situation seemed entirely different.
At that moment, Holy Daughter had been chasing Qiao Mu for quite some time but still couldn't catch up. She gradually withdrew the scarlet glow from her eyes, returning to a more composed state.
She struck the water forcefully, kicking and splashing as she broke through the surface. Coughing twice, she expelled the cold river water from her mouth.
A pair of pitch-black pupils brimming with an icy intensity remained fixed on Qiao Mu's retreating silhouette.
This woman must be hiding something peculiar. How else could she navigate the water so effortlessly? Even with her unique bloodline abilities, it should be impossible to surpass her.
Bang, bang, bang. Nie Yaoguang pounded the river angrily twice, her face contorted with uncontrollable rage as she vented her frustration into the sky.
Meanwhile, Her Excellency Lady Qiaoqiao continued swimming for a while and then glanced back. Observing that Nie Yaoguang had halted her pursuit, she couldn't help but find it odd.
The undead crocodiles continued their relentless chase. Irritated by this, Qiao Mu decided to turn back, releasing icicles from her palm that she plunged into the heads of two of the zombie crocodiles.
Sensing the threat, the other zombie crocodiles attempted to flee in various directions.
Qiao Mu wasn't about to let them escape. She created water barriers around her and swiftly approached, lowering dozens of Dao icicles to deal with the remaining zombie crocodiles.
Once the corpses had been reduced to ashes, Qiao Mu collected the cores from the heads of the two zombie crocodiles and glanced around in uncertainty.
This was getting exasperating. Water surrounded her on all sides. Would she have to remain submerged all night?
Giving up on that idea, she decided to return to Paradise Planet first and allow the sapling to contact Mo Lian and the others.
With a casual thought, Qiao Mu was prepared to enter Paradise Planet when she suddenly realized she had lost contact with the sapling, Qiuqiu.
Her expression darkened instantly, and her frustration was palpable as she swayed in the water.
Could it be that, within the Spring River's vicinity, there was not only a flight restriction but also a spiritual domain interference?
