My Crown Prince Consort Is a Firecracker! - Chapter 2761

2761 Monster Power
As expected, Commander’s principle of prudence and avoiding trouble was absolutely correct.

The diminutive mercenary, Dongzi, discreetly took a step back, blending into the rear of the group.

Commander Dai’er was also internally shaken. She couldn’t help but feel relieved that she had never held any ill feelings toward the reserved young woman and her companions from the very start.

The lady and her group were not troublemakers. As long as those around them exercised caution and refrained from provoking them, everything would naturally remain peaceful.

Dai’er let out a sigh of relief and swiftly turned around, leading her team.
Simultaneously, a reconnaissance mercenary emerged from the forest and approached Dai’er, whispering something into her ear.

Dai’er’s eyes brightened, and she nodded in swift agreement before departing with her squad.

Meanwhile, Miss Qiao caught the excited voice of the water child ringing in her mind. “Masta, Masta, Masta! Up ahead, let’s move forward. I can detect the scent of primordial water.”

Qiao Mu was taken aback and mentally engaged with the water child, asking, “What is primordial water?”

“It’s a ninth-grade spiritual water.”

The water child exclaimed with enthusiasm, “It hasn’t been sensed yet. Before that, Dottie can consume it.”

“After devouring it, Dottie might be on the verge of entering adolescence!” The water child’s excitement grew with each word. It yearned to burst forth from Paradise Planet at that very moment.

Qiao Mu felt a pang of exasperation and promptly intervened, silencing the water child. “You’re forbidden from emerging. I’ll investigate on my own.”

“Masta, Masta! Innate water, innate water!”

Qiao Mu rolled her eyes and brushed aside the little fellow’s clamorous outbursts in the depths of her mind.

She raised her gaze to Mo Lian and spoke, “Little Water informed me about a ninth-grade spiritual water ahead that it finds highly valuable. Let’s venture forth in search of it.”

“Alright.” Mo Lian naturally had no objections.

They skipped setting up camp. Their previous activities had merely involved lounging around a tree and indulging in some barbecue. Now, their pace quickened significantly.

After dousing the bonfire with a layer of icy water to extinguish it, the group casually grabbed their belongings and rose to their feet, following Miss Qiao onward.

With the water child’s guidance, navigation proved effortlessly accurate.

Before long, the company reached a deep section of the forest and came to a halt.

Previously, they had maintained a sense of Dai’er’s hundred-person Mercenary Group progressing in front of them.

“Stay vigilant, everyone.” In a sudden move, Mo Lian pulled Qiao Mu to his side, adjusting their positions slightly to dodge an unexpected onslaught of vines.

Lu Yu and Hua Tao immediately conjured earthen barriers, while another member sent forth radiant streams of water to counteract the writhing vines.

Suddenly, a fierce grade-one gust swirled in the forest’s center. Its sound resembled a deflated sack being hauled, sucking everyone forward.

Caught off guard, Qi Xuanxuan found herself ensnared in her own blanket. Acting on instinct, everyone reached out to secure her before any further thought.

Ma Ta was the first to grab Qi Xuanxuan’s arms, inadvertently pulling her and himself several meters forward. His feet skidded across the forest undergrowth, inadvertently carving out a trail of dirt.

The Little Fatty sprang into action, swiftly leaping over and grasping Qi Xuanxuan around the waist. His substantial frame provided the necessary counterbalance, allowing Qi Xuanxuan, who had started in an unstable position, to regain her footing.
