Chapter 499: Chapter 495 Helping Taotie Quit Drinking

The next morning!

At sea!

On the deck!

"Hahaha—"

Fang Xiaocao’s crisp laughter drifted far away with the morning sea breeze.

At this moment on the deck, as happy as some laughed, others wished to die from embarrassment.

Taotie and Vermilion Bird both wore awkward faces.

Embarrassed, they played with their fingers, looking down.

Noticing Taotie and Vermilion Bird’s expressions,

Fang Xiaocao laughed even more joyfully.

These two fools really embarrassed themselves.

It’s simply too hilarious.

Half an hour later!

Fang Xiaocao lay on a deck chair, clutching her stomach, catching her breath, her body still twitching.

It was just too funny.

Fang Xiaocao laughed for half an hour, until she was out of breath, her vision going black in waves, her abs aching terribly.

Briefly: laughter-induced oxygen deprivation!

"You two fools, what a show you put on."

Fang Xiaocao teased with a laugh.

Taotie awkwardly grimaced: "Princess Your Highness, could you stop laughing?"

"I’m really so embarrassed."

Taotie finally couldn’t help it and spoke up.

This was the first thing he said after sobering up, following Tom’s public inquisition where he recounted the absurd events of the previous night for him and Vermilion Bird.

It’s clear that drinking too much isn’t scary.

What’s scary is someone helping you remember the details.

Even made Taotie, with his bold and thick-skinned nature, as embarrassed as a modest lady.

"If you don’t want me to laugh, don’t do such ridiculous things. If you do, how can I stop myself from laughing..."

Fang Xiaocao didn’t spare Taotie’s face at all.

Talking and laughing at the same time.

Mainly recalling the details while teasing.

Taotie’s face showed no joy.

He squatted on the deck, depressed.

Scribbling circles on the deck with his fingers.

With his big brother Taotie backing down,

Vermilion Bird dared not speak even more.

He could only accompany Taotie, squatting on the deck.

Joining as a pair of miserable brothers.

Unhappy, squatting next to Fang Xiaocao’s deck chair, tilted his head and blinked.

He looked at Fang Xiaocao and then at the miserable Taotie and Vermilion Bird.

Hesitating for a moment, he crawled stealthily behind Taotie and Vermilion Bird, squatted down, and patted them on the shoulder: "Fools!"

Heartbreaking comfort from Unhappy +1!

Taotie and Vermilion Bird’s expressions both forced a bitter smile simultaneously.

Shooting an annoyed glance at Unhappy.

Seeing Unhappy’s actions, Fang Xiaocao lost control again and laughed anew.

Another half hour.

Fang Xiaocao finally stopped laughing.

"Alright, I’ll let you off the hook."

Fang Xiaocao said with a chuckle.

"Go rest for a while, after lunch, we’ll act at night."

Fang Xiaocao laughed enough; seeing Taotie and Vermilion Bird, although sober, still with traces of hangover on their faces, she spoke.

Taotie and Vermilion Bird immediately felt like they were granted amnesty.

Fled quickly to their rooms.

The two of them genuinely couldn’t hold it together anymore.

The mental attack had been maxed out.

Fang Xiaocao believed that after this incident—

Taotie and Vermilion Bird would learn their lesson, avoiding the drink for a very long time.

And would even dodge it like a poison, sprinting away at the first sight.

This was the purpose of showing the recording Tom took last night and publicly grilling them on the deck this morning.

To teach Taotie and Vermilion Bird a lesson was indeed Fang Xiaocao’s fundamental goal.

Now seeing Taotie and Vermilion Bird fleeing in a rush, Fang Xiaocao knew her purpose was achieved, and by night, Ragnarok would gain two furious gods of slaughter desperate for a vent.

The full rage levels of Taotie and Vermilion Bird meant their combat power wasn’t just one plus one equals two.

But directly super doubled, with their little universe exploding, showing geometric growth in combat power.

"Disperse now."

"Everyone, rest up."

"We’ll depart on time tonight."

Fang Xiaocao said to Tom and the other two.

"Yes!"

Tom nodded, turning away with Unhappy and Mantis.

Fang Xiaocao stood at the bow, gazing at the boundless, undulating sea.

Her eyes gradually lost focus.

Fang Xiaocao fell into a mindless state.

Who knows how long had passed.

"Princess Your Highness!"

Tom’s voice sounded behind Fang Xiaocao.

Fang Xiaocao snapped back to reality.

She turned to look at Tom: "What’s up?"

Under the sea breeze and sun, Tom was very handsome.

In the sunlight, Tom’s long hair was flowing, shining golden and dazzling.

His fair skin wasn’t coarse like an average Caucasian, but rather delicate.

Exceptional body proportions, a wasp waist and broad shoulders, Tom’s tall frame made him look like a god coming out of a comic.

One word, truly handsome!

Two words, handsome as hell!

Even Fang Xiaocao blushed a little.

Tom blinked and smiled, "Princess Your Highness, what were you looking at?"

Listening to Tom’s gentle voice, Fang Xiaocao’s heart nearly melted: "Nothing, just looking at the sky."

"What do you need from me?"

Fang Xiaocao immediately changed the subject.

To avoid putting herself in an awkward situation.

"It’s lunchtime."

"Everyone’s waiting for you to dine."

Tom smiled as he spoke.

"Huh?"

"It’s noon already?"

Fang Xiaocao was stunned.

She glanced at the time and to her surprise, it was indeed noon. Fang Xiaocao never expected she had stood dazed on the deck for three hours.

Even Fang Xiaocao herself was astonished.

"Princess Your Highness, what’s the matter?"

Tom asked, puzzled.

Tom couldn’t grasp why Fang Xiaocao was reacting so strongly.

Fang Xiaocao shook her head: "Nothing."

"Let’s go eat."

Fang Xiaocao could sense that during the three hours she was dazed, she had gained significantly.

Even with the Blood Jade Ring, usually creeping slow in supplementing her spiritual power daily, it surprisingly made great progress during this prolonged stasis.

It even faintly showed signs of a breakthrough.

Once advanced, without relying on the Blood Jade Ring, Fang Xiaocao’s spiritual power would solidly reach the top level.

At that time, she would truly be a top-level spiritual expert in name and reality.

Various top-level masters were as common as cows.

But top-level spiritual experts, to date, besides the early deceased Gemini, possibly only the long-disappeared Black Robed Person could be considered a top-level spiritual expert.

Apart from the Twins and the Black Robed Man, basically, no one has seen a top-level spiritual expert.

There are a few first-class spiritual experts, but they pose no threat to Fang Xiaocao at all.

Fang Xiaocao and Tom arrived at the dining room.

At this moment, everyone was present.

Even the duo of embarrassing brothers sat obediently at the dining table, waiting for Fang Xiaocao and Tom to take their seats.

Fang Xiaocao smiled slightly: "We’re all family, no need to be so reserved, let’s eat."

Saying that, Fang Xiaocao took the main seat.

She picked up a goblet, took a sip of juice.

Then picked up chopsticks, picked a slice of food.

With Fang Xiaocao leading, Tom and the others picked up chopsticks and started dining.

Only this time, no one touched the liquor.

The glasses were all filled with juice.
