Chapter 517: Chapter 516: Uncle Xuan Wu, Can You Help?

Mianmian’s eyes widened upon hearing these words, and she momentarily forgot that she was supposed to continue swimming to the surface of the sea.

She couldn’t tell if Black Tortoise was joking or if he really intended to do as he said. Just the thought that these people didn’t need to suffer made her feel deeply saddened. Tears she had been holding back for a long time now fell uncontrollably.

"Don’t be like this, please don’t," Little Bun said choked up with tears streaming down, "It’s Mianmian’s fault, Mianmian didn’t stop Hu Yaoyao, and that’s why this disaster happened. If you make it worse, what’s Mianmian to do?"

"Mianmian, Mianmian can’t save those people anymore."

She was crying extremely hard, her tears falling down like beads off a broken string.

Once her emotions surged, the wound on her chest couldn’t hold and began to bleed.

Waterproof Pearls create a protective circle that allows those inside to breathe underwater.

Black Tortoise gazed at Mianmian within the circle, his usually still eyes flashing with an unusual emotion.

He had only been teasing the child on a whim; how could he have known she would cry so heartbreakingly? Crying was one thing, but why was there such a large wound on her body, one he had completely failed to notice before?

The scent of her blood was so enticing that it began to agitate the carnivorous fish nearby.

As Black Tortoise watched, a dark hue spread around his form.

The next second, a man with long hair appeared in front of Mianmian.

"Stop crying, I was just joking just now," he said.

Mianmian hiccupped, stuttering, "I can’t, I can’t stop, it’s just, the joke was too good. Uncle Xuan Wu, Mianmian is off, I need to go, to save people, there’s no time left."

As she spoke, she tossed a few medicine pills into her mouth to stop the bleeding in her chest.

Although the injury was healing slowly with the effect of the medicine, the lost blood would not return.

Mianmian’s face began to turn white.

"You just said that it wouldn’t matter if I didn’t help. Why do you want to save people even after being injured?" Black Tortoise said, activating his divination powers.

After figuring out what had happened while he carried her on his back, he continued, "Originally it was the Fox Demon controlling the small dragon who started all this, and the Taoist simply added to the trouble. This incident has nothing to do with you."

Mianmian shook her head: "No, Mianmian feels it does have something to do with her."

Black Tortoise pressed for an explanation.

Mianmian scratched her head: "Our family’s Divine Stone says that Mianmian needs to be liked by everyone to wake up mom and dad. If they’re in danger and Mianmian doesn’t help, then Mianmian won’t be liked by them."

Black Tortoise said, "So you’re doing it because you want something in return."

"That’s true, indeed Mianmian doing good deeds can wake up mom and dad," Mianmian admitted the reason she saved people did include that aspect, after pausing, she continued, "But even without that part, Mianmian would never stand by and not save people. Mom said that when doing good, one should not worry about the future, just have a clear conscience."

Just as she finished speaking, she had surfaced.

Mianmian spat out the Waterproof Pearl, stepped onto Flying Sword, and flew in the direction of the sea’s currents.

Black Tortoise closely followed behind Mianmian, fixated on the small hole in her back for a while, then suddenly said, "Fine, I’ll see if you, this little child, are really as you say."

He was bored anyway, and having encountered an honest and interesting youngster, doing a bit of activity wouldn’t hurt.

When Mianmian heard Black Tortoise say this, she turned her small face towards him, tears turning to laughter: "Really, for real? Uncle Xuan Wu, you’re going to help?"

Black Tortoise’s lips curled: "Hmm, but I’ll help once we get to the Human City."

Upon hearing this, Mianmian quickly patted Flying Sword: "Then Uncle Xuan Wu, you sit on Flying Sword, and Mianmian will take you to the nearest city at the fastest speed."

"Your speed, how could it be considered the fastest?" Black Tortoise hoisted up Mianmian’s collar, simply asked for direction, and in an instant appeared above the city with Mianmian.

Helicopters were still helping with the evacuation, and the streets of the city were already flooded with water that the drains couldn’t manage.

Vehicles were shuttling across the city, moving residents towards higher ground.

Mianmian chose this city precisely because she deduced that its low terrain would be the first to be hit by the disaster.

In the stormy weather, a resident happened to glance at the sky and noticed a sword floating with somebody standing on it, exclaiming in amazement: "There’s a sword in the sky, and there seems to be someone standing on the sword!"

"Is that Little Auntie?"

"Who’s that behind Little Auntie? Dressed in black ancient attire."

"You go down, and greet these people," Black Tortoise said with a hint of a smile.

Although Mianmian found the request strange, she still did as she was told- flying beside the people who recognized her.

These individuals were actually standing at the edge of their balconies, having been notified through a broadcast to evacuate in order. It wasn’t yet their turn as residents living higher up, so they hadn’t left.

Seeing Mianmian fly over, they greeted her excitedly: "Little Auntie, your dragon is amazing, someone in our Community just got a taste of riding a dragon."

"Little Auntie, I’m your die-hard fan, see here. That dream-entry charm you sold let me communicate with my grandfather. He asked me to erect a shrine for you, look, this shrine is even pink."

They chattered excitedly with Mianmian, their tones exuding the excitement of fans seeing their Idol.

Black Tortoise saw everyone was happy, then suddenly said, "This disaster was caused by her."

With that one sentence, the enthusiastic residents who had come to see Mianmian fell silent.

Everyone’s expressions became strange, their gazes shifting back and forth on Mianmian’s face.

After a while, someone said: "That’s impossible, Little Auntie wouldn’t do such a thing."

"You say Little Auntie couldn’t prevent the disaster, I might believe it, but saying she caused this disaster, there’s no reason."

"Exactly, if Little Auntie didn’t wish us well, why would she host Fortune-telling Live Broadcasts for 888 yuan to help us? She also saved so many people before, none of that was necessary."

After hearing these words, Black Tortoise laughed coldly again: "She helped you before for the sake of her parents, who are sleeping. Only by Doing Good can her parents wake up."

"We’ve known about that for a while," the girl on the very top, upon hearing Black Tortoise’s words, stared at him dissatisfied, "When I met Little Auntie, she already told me that she needed everyone’s affection to wake up her dad and mom. So what? I like her because it’s my own choice; it doesn’t conflict with her needing our affection."

"Wait, wait, Little Auntie, what’s with your chest? Why is there a hole in your clothing, and you’re still bleeding?"

It wasn’t until the residents reminded her did Mianmian remember that she had forgotten to apply a dust-removing spell on her body.

She didn’t want anyone to know she was injured, especially her nieces and nephews.
