Chapter 27: Ugly bottom frog
Luo Huian glanced at Xu Suisui. She pointed to her injuries and stated, "Your daughter made me run around the city and I have to carry you here and even take care of you. Do you think that I would have done so many things if I needed to go to the hospital? Even if I did, it's too late."
Xu Suisui touched his nose with a guilty conscience. He really did not know that his daughter asked Luo Huian to look for him all over the city. Even though Luo Huian did not have any major injuries, her body was thin. She was so weak that her bones were protruding out of her skin and there was no flesh under her skin.
If not for her face which was beautiful as that of an ethereal immortal fairy, she would look gaunt and terrifying with that figure.
"Then, if you don't mind you can stay at my house. I have nothing at the moment, but I can bring you some clothes and a few meals until you recover," Xu Suisui had heard about Luo Huian being kicked out of the Luo house. It was the talk of the city at the moment.
Many people were joking and making fun of Luo Huian at the moment but Xu Suisui was not one of them. He didn't think that there was anything wrong with a person loving someone else. Of course, Luo Huian's actions were a bit rash and crude but she was very young. She was only twenty-four and was forced to marry mers she did not like for the sake of alliances.
A woman at her age did not know better and was rather hot-headed.
She might have done something wrong but Luo Yeqing was also too much for kicking out her daughter, for the sake of honour.
"I——"
Luo Huian was about to agree, as she had nowhere to go but then suddenly a blue screen popped in front of her. She looked at the screen and her eyebrows couldn't help but furrow.
The mission that she received was only half finished.
There was still half of it that she needed to complete.
"What the…" Wasn't the mission saving Xu Suisui's life? She had done that so why was it not finished yet?
"Maybe it's because there is still a danger looming over his head?" Xiao Bai guessed, her essence took the form of a small white snake as she floated in front of Luo Huian and glanced at the screen.
She was quite impressed by the immortals who had come up with this concept. It seemed like they had seen a lot of modern things.
"That's indeed right," Xiao Hei also took a shape with his essence. With Luo Huian's power rising they could also feel a bit of spiritual energy surging in their bodies. Now they no longer have to squeeze in the small earring.
Xiao Hei glanced at the screen and explained, "Maybe this mer is fine now but he might do something later on. Thus, the mission is half finished, you need to deal with the root cause of the problem."
"Am I a nanny or love guru? I have nothing good to do but to solve this wife, husband and mistress drama?" Luo Huian snapped, feeling annoyed and frustrated. She did not understand how things developed at this stage.
She was not good at handling emotions. Especially love, it made her feel suppressed and her breathing turned harsh and cold. There was one time when she had loved someone with all her heart—— she had given that person her sincerest feeling and he ——
Luo Huian closed her eyes and shook her head. What was she doing? Thinking of that bastard? She had better things to think about!
"What can we do? Unless we get this mer to leave or make his wife love him again, I don't think the danger will be gone. The existence of Gloom Rocks is not a good thing. What if someone used it to suck the happiness of this mer again and caused him to go crazy ?" Xiao Bai spoke worriedly.
Gloom Rocks were the cause of why people were getting crazier by the day.
Those rocks sucked even the slightest amount of happiness from a person leaving nothing but gloom behind as if there was nothing left for them to stay alive for. Even though the three of them were not affected by the energy of the Gloom Rocks, they still knew the effect that those rocks had on people.
There was no way to stop it either.
Even the hunters couldn't take care of those rocks and the areas next to the Gloom Rocks were off-limits. However, some people still snuck into those regions either out of curiosity or the desire to get hold of something they shouldn't use.
In Xu Suisui's case, most probably, it was the sly fox named Du Mumu who brought the Gloom Rock to Xu Suisui and caused this tragedy.
Luo Huian narrowed her eyes as she looked at Xu Suisui. She tapped on the screen and then looked at his gloom index. Though it was much smaller than before it was still between two hundred to three hundred.
While this index was normal, Xiao Bai was right. This mer called Du Mumu was dangerous and his existence was like a Blood Explosion Ball. As long as a drop of blood fell on it, it would explode.
Du Mumu was the same, if Xu Suisui turned up safe and sound in front of him, that mer would surely do something to him.
"Yo, Mister Xu… since you are willing to let me stay. I will take up the offer but I am not an ungrateful person, I will repay you for your kindness," Luo Huian smiled at Xu Suisui who felt a shiver dance up his spine.
"Repay? What do you mean by repay? How are you going to repay me?" Xu Suisui asked. As far as he knew Luo Huian had nothing.
Hearing his words, Luo Huian curled her lips in a smile. "By making your wife regret picking up an ugly butt frog.".
