The Beautiful County Magistrate
Chapter 576: Tsk tsk, Holy Daughter, you have quite the figure!

Chapter 576: Chapter 576: Tsk tsk, Holy Daughter, you have quite the figure!

The Holy Daughter and people of the Qingshan Association had already jumped in, letting the current carry them upward.

Xu Qianli took a deep breath and also jumped in.

Whether he could escape from the collapsing cave depended on this attempt.

The rapid current was sweeping people upward, the surroundings intermittently bright and dark, and Xu Qianli accidentally collided with someone. Instinctively holding tight, he reached out to touch, "Tsk, tsk," surprisingly soft.

In the next second, a pair of hands reached out, tightly choking his neck.

It was then that he realized he was hugging the Qingshan Association’s Holy Daughter—who was incredibly fierce in the water, choking someone with relentless force.

Xu Qianli saw he was about to be choked to death, so he gritted his teeth and randomly grabbed at the Holy Daughter without mercy.

The Holy Daughter’s hands suddenly let go, not only did her grip loosen, but her whole body went limp.

Seizing the moment when she was off guard, Xu Qianli yanked at her face, pulling down the veil covering it.

Just then, the gemstones shone brightly, and Xu Qianli got a clear look—this woman was truly pretty, looking like some little demon.

The eyes of the Holy Daughter were wide with disbelief as she stared at Xu Qianli, even touching her own face.

Ah, her face had been seen, seen by this scoundrel Xu Qianli!

And he had also pinched her hard, causing a burning pain.

Suddenly, overwhelmed with anger, the Holy Daughter fiercely kicked Xu Qianli and desperately swam upwards.

As Xu Qianli was kicked away, he instinctively tugged and coincidentally caught hold of the Holy Daughter’s skirt hem, actually tearing off a piece of fabric, revealing a pair of dazzlingly white long legs.

The Holy Daughter was completely enraged, disregarding that she was still underwater, and drew her knife, stabbing at Xu Qianli.

"Bastard, you dare dishonor me, go to hell!"

Before the Holy Daughter could stab him, suddenly an overwhelming force swept her away and out into the open.

Finally out, the Holy Daughter gasped for air.

The next second, Xu Qianli also made it out, only to see a river, with water continuously bubbling up below.

It was clear that the river was connected to the underground river.

Without waiting to observe more or figure out exactly where they were, he saw not far off, the Qingshan Association’s Holy Daughter staring daggers at him while swimming towards him, brandishing a knife to chop.

Xu Qianli plunged back into the water, "If I can’t provoke, I can surely hide!"

"Damn woman, I’ll hide from you for now until my Bai Muqing arrives, then we’ll settle you in minutes!"

Unable to slash Xu Qianli, the Holy Daughter roared furiously, "You just wait, I and our Qingshan Association have taken note of you, from now on it’s a fight to the death!"

Dropping the threat, the Holy Daughter swam downstream, her figure soon disappearing from sight.

Xu Qianli came out of the water, without the Holy Daughter’s shadow in sight, but Bai Muqing, Ye Qing, and others gradually emerged.

The group quickly climbed ashore, Xu Qianli sprawled out on the ground, gasping for air.

He had just survived by a hair’s breadth, first escaping from the cave, and then from the hands of the Holy Daughter of the Qingshan Association—it really was a narrow escape from death.

"Speaking of that damn Qingshan Association Holy Daughter, though she may be a bit fierce, she’s genuinely attractive, an absolute little demon.

As for her figure," Xu Qianli lifted his hand, subconsciously grabbing at the air.

Hmm... that figure is also amazing.

Back in the underground river, I didn’t hold back at all, probably left her in pain for days, bruises and all.

Ye Qing, who had just caught her breath, told Xu Qianli, "It’s such a shame, truly such a shame. That oval stone inside the Stone Giant Cauldron, being a meteorite from outer space with special radiation capable of producing a special fluid that enhances human Recovery Ability. If it could have been extracted for research, that would be great. If researched properly, it might even cure many illnesses."

Bai Muqing said, "Give up your wishful thinking. You saw clearly what happened in the cave below; that stone is special, possessing a kind of extraordinary power, not something we mortals can get our hands on. Not to mention, the Stone Giant Cauldron was smashed, and the power that restored it in such a short time is too strong. Plus, with the cave collapsed, finding it again is impossible. Unless you can mobilize the manpower to dig a gigantic pit hundreds of meters deep."

"Overall excavation is of course impossible, but what about localized drilling, maybe making a hole two to three meters in diameter could find it."

Ye Qing was still not giving up. As an expert from National Security, she was very aware of the stone’s value—if it could be secured, it would be a treasure for all humanity, potentially raising the world’s medical standards significantly.

Xu Qianli said, "I doubt it’s possible for us to get the thing. Besides, considering everything that’s happened in the cave, that stone seemed almost sentient. The way the cave collapsed at the end, it might have been its doing to chase us away. Hiss..."

He suddenly gasped sharply.

Lifting his hand, he noticed a wound had appeared without his knowing.

It must’ve been sliced by a gemstone when he was swept upward in the underground river.

Just as he was thinking about finding something to bandage the wound and stop the bleeding, Xu Qianli realized something was amiss.

The wound on his hand was healing at a rate visible to the naked eye!

In less than half a minute, the cut had completely vanished, as if it had never been there!

What the hell, that was Song Ke’s ability before.

Why do I have it?

I definitely didn’t drink the Elixir of Eternal Life, so how did I acquire this ability?

According to the notes Song Ke gave, women drinking it would lead to shrinkage and degradation of the womb and ovaries, causing infertility; men would see their testicles shrink away within minutes.

Could it be, I’ve become a living eunuch?

Shit, I’m still young, in my twenties, surrounded by such attractive women, and I don’t even have children; how could I become a living eunuch!

Realizing the gravity of the situation, Xu Qianli hastily yanked down his trousers to check.

Ye Qing was staring at Xu Qianli when she saw him act strangely fascinated, and then suddenly looked down at his trousers, she quickly turned her head away, muttering softly, "You have no shame!"

"Ha ha, it’s there, it’s still there, thank goodness!"

Xu Qianli suddenly shouted with excitement, grabbed Ye Qing, and hugged her tightly, planting a fervent kiss on her face.

He’d been worried over nothing, thank goodness it was just a false alarm.

Suddenly embraced by Xu Qianli and kissed on the cheek, Ye Qing’s anger surged, she violently pushed Xu Qianli away and kicked him hard in the crotch.

Ah...

A scream of agony escaped as Xu Qianli curled up on the ground. This woman was way too ruthless with her kick, was she dead set on ending his lineage?

Over to the side, Bai Muqing chuckled softly, taking a certain pleasure in his misfortune, she said, "You deserved it!"
