Chapter 136: Yun Na’s Choice on the Magic Continent
As soon as they entered the room and saw the chattering paintings and the seemingly busy broom, Sang Chu raised the bell. Before shaking it, she simply reminded them, “Return to your positions!”
The floating candles quickly flew to the candlesticks, and the broom obediently stopped in a corner. Only the paintings filling the room continued to chatter incessantly: “Your Highness, esteemed Lord, don’t you need a naive little cutie to keep you company? Don’t you? Really don’t you?”
“Your Highness, can you tell us about Rose City?”
“Yes, yes, we all really want to know!”
“I heard that Rose City is very big and beautiful, esteemed Your Highness, please tell us about it!”
They spoke one after another. Seeing that Sang Chu remained silent, the picture frames and paintings finally started chatting among themselves.
Sang Chu saw that the candlesticks and broom had stopped in their proper places. For the sake of her ears, she quickly rang the bell.
Everything in the room instantly lost its life.
Mu Xue’s eyes widened, but she dared not say anything. She could only send brainwave messages to everyone using her optical computer: 【 This Magic Continent is so magical! Can these brooms be sold back in the Apocalypse? 】
Sang Chu: 【 Probably. Everyone, rest for a bit. After the boss helps us sell those magic beasts, we’ll go shopping. Oh, right, everyone change into these clothes. 】
As she spoke, Sang Chu handed one witch robe to each of them. “The old ones don’t fit anymore. Everyone wear these from now on.”
Sang Chu was afraid that the things in the room were spies and dared not speak carelessly.
Fortunately, even the oblivious Xiao Yi Fei knew to be cautious with his words, which made Sang Chu breathe a sigh of relief.
Mu Xue: 【 By the way, doesn’t everyone find it strange? This small town is called Flower Town, but we haven’t seen a single flower along the way? 】
Sang Chu nodded, sat down on the sofa, and put the mermaid down. 【 It is indeed a bit strange. 】
After replying to Mu Xue, she looked at the mermaid and said, “Yun Na, would you like me to send you home?”
Yun Na shook her head. “I don’t have a home anymore. Once a mermaid leaves the sea area, everyone leaves that place. I can never go back.”
The dejected Yun Na lowered her head, her red eyes shedding tears. Mu Xue and Xiao Yi Fei stared intently at her falling tears, only to find that they merely wet the carpet. The expected pearls did not appear, and both were very disappointed.
Sang Jing Wen and Lu Min Feng looked at them speechlessly and walked to the side to look at their accommodation.
There were a total of five guest rooms, one hall, two hot spring bathrooms, one kitchen, and three bathrooms. No wonder they called it a family room; it looked quite nice.
Sang Jing Wen opened all the room doors. “How should we live here?”
Looking at Yun Na, who was still crying, Sang Chu simply patted her shoulder and stood up. “Everyone will take turns keeping watch and sleeping tonight. The room doors will be left open like this. The person on watch will be in the living room, okay?”
With five rooms, one could see them all from the sofa in the living room.
Sang Jing Wen: “In that case, the first half of the night will be me and Sang Sang, and the second half will be Min Feng and A Yi. Is that okay?”
Xiao Yi Fei: “I’m fine with anything.”
Lu Min Feng: “Okay.”
Mu Xue looked at them and sighed softly. “Fine, then I’ll sleep the whole night.”
“Then it’s settled. Everyone can rest for a bit now. I’ll ask later if there’s anything to eat and have it delivered.”
Sang Chu looked at Xiao Yi Fei and Lu Min Feng. If they were to keep watch in the second half of the night, resting now was the best option.
Lu Min Feng: “Then I’ll go rest for a bit. Just call me when it’s time to eat.”
Xiao Yi Fei: “Alright, let’s go to sleep.”
Sang Jing Wen looked at Yun Na and said to Sang Chu, “I’m going to lie down for a bit too. You handle her situation.”
“Okay, go rest, brother.”
Yun Na composed herself. When she looked up, her eyes were still teary. “Sang Chu, I, I want to follow you, can I?”
“I, I know water magic.”
To show her worth, she concentrated hard and conjured a water ball for Sang Chu to see. “Sang Chu, look.”
“I can take you in, but I don’t have any contract cards on me right now. I’ll need to go to the magic shop tomorrow to see if they’re selling any. Until then, you can continue to consider it.”
“I’ll follow you.”
Yun Na firmly chose Sang Chu. The moment Sang Chu saved her and carried her so gently all the way, she had already decided to follow Sang Chu.
Mu Xue watched them from the side and couldn’t help but say, “Yun Na, there’s no rush for this. Like Sang Sang said, you should consider it first. We still have time. Do you want Sang Sang to carry you back to your room to rest? Your, your injuries…”
Her wounds were still bleeding, but she wasn’t one of them. If she were to expose the medical pod, it would be a bit dangerous.
Although they didn’t seem to be in any danger at the moment, she always felt like something was lurking in the shadows, ready to strike at any moment, which made her very uneasy.
Yun Na looked at Sang Chu. “Sang Sang, are you coming too?”
“Can Xiao Xue accompany you? I have some things to discuss with the butler, and I still need to wait for the boss here.”
Sang Chu also knew that this was a bit of a chick-hatching complex, but she couldn’t always accompany her; she had plenty of her own things to deal with.
She also needed to see if there were any ways to make money in this place. She would need to buy many things, and she wasn’t sure if a hundred crystal coins would be enough. She also didn’t know how much the things she sold would be worth.
Yun Na looked at Sang Chu, then at Mu Xue. “Is that okay?”
Mu Xue smiled. “Of course! Then I’ll accompany you. You go ahead and be busy, Sang Sang.”
“Mm.”
Yun Na nodded with a faint smile. Sang Chu then walked over and picked her up. “Bear with it for a moment. I’ll see if there’s any medicine later and bring some up for you. Let’s apply some medicine first.”
As soon as she heard this, Yun Na immediately became nervous. She clutched Sang Chu’s arm. “Don’t go to that hospital. The aura is very strange, very dangerous!”
Sang Chu: “Did you sense something?”
Yun Na shook her head. “Intuition. I don’t know why I’m so resistant to that place. My intuition tells me that place is a no-go, that I’ll die there.”
Mu Xue: “I have that feeling too, Sang Sang. Should we leave this small town?”
Sang Chu comforted them. “It’s okay. As long as we don’t cause trouble, nothing major will happen. You all rest here, and I’ll go find the butler.”
After putting Yun Na down, Sang Chu sent her a message: 【 I’ll have Tu You stay to look after you all. I’m going out for a bit. Be careful yourselves. 】
【 You too. 】
After Sang Chu walked out of the room, Lu Min Feng and Sang Jing Wen happened to be coming out. Seeing her coming out of the room alone, they asked: 【 Why aren’t you resting? 】
【 I’m going out for a bit. Tu You will stay. If anything happens, remember to contact me. 】
Sang Jing Wen: 【 Then be careful yourself. 】
Lu Min Feng: 【 Be careful. 】
Sang Chu: 【 Mm, I will. You all too. 】
With that, she opened the door. The butler had been standing at the door. Seeing Sang Chu, he smiled and said, “Your Highness, may I ask what assistance you require?”
