Chapter 716: Trapped

What did you mean about to come to the end; this was clearly a freefall from the top of a waterfall, wah…
While enclosed inside a springy water spiritual barrier, our dear Qiao Mu’s small body turned upside down and all over the place, her head spinning as she tumbled down below.
If someone saw her right now, they would definitely find her extremely comical.
The waterfall would toss the little fellow, enclosed inside the transparent bouncy ball with a little animal, into a somersault. Blood would rush to her head, yet she would be upright again with another flip. Hence, she kept waving her small limbs around in an attempt to keep her balance.
Qiao Mu: “…”
The waterfall was abnormally steep, so it was only a matter of seconds for Qiao Mu to plop straight down into the lake below with a splash.
The great upheaval in her heart shook her to the core.
After her entire body plunged into the lake, she didn’t react for a good while, and her body continued to sink down further in the lake water.
“Puh!” A moment later, a certain Qiao’s small head finally surfaced from the lake, spitting out a mouthful of water as she wiped the water from her face with her hand.
“Caw!” As the little chick sprawled on her disheveled bird’s nest hairdo, with all its feathers droopy and dripping wet, it panted uncontrollably with its small beak open.
This is the pits. The little chick continuously spat out three beakfuls of water before shouting out pitifully, “Masta, let’s quickly go ashore.”
Qiao Mu glanced at their surroundings in the dim light of the night.
This lake wasn’t even a tenth of the size of her Paradise Lake.
One side was the waterfall, while the other three sides faced lofty mountains whose summits couldn’t be seen. Upon looking further, the clouds and mist in the distance hindered her from determining her location.
“I wonder if I’ve returned to the surface.” Qiao Mu muttered as she swam towards the lakeside.
The little chick, still sprawled on her head, exclaimed with a caw, “Masta, Masta, look at my wing. I can’t really flap it.”
“Ah.” Qiao Mu took it down from her head and examined it while holding it in her hands. “Weak chicken, you have a gash on your wing. It must’ve accidentally gotten scraped by a sharp rock when we fell into the water from the crevice earlier.”
“I don’t think so, normal rocks can’t hurt me.” Qingluan was very puzzled.
When was it this weak?
Afterwards, because the two of them were squatting inside the water spiritual barrier, it didn’t get injured further, even when entering freefall from high up in the air.
The little chick spat out two more beakfuls of water. “It’s fine, Master. It’s only a small wound. I’ll carry you up into the air later.”
After swimming ashore, Qiao Mu creased her brow upon looking down at her sopping wet clothes.
“Qiuqiu, pull us inside.”
“Okay, Masta.” Qiuqiu then paused before asking, “How about that snake?”
The snakelet immediately poked out from her waist pocket, peeping at Qiao Mu with moist eyes.
“Pull it inside too.”
“Oh…” Qiuqiu reluctantly responded.
With her current cultivation, it was still rather strenuous to bring new creatures into Paradise Planet for the first time. That’s why Qiuqiu was a bit unwilling when it heard that it also had to bring a snakelet inside.
In addition, it was evident at a glance that this snakelet was going to be competing with Qiuqiu for Master’s favor, so Qiuqiu was even more unwilling.
After entering Paradise Planet, Qiao Mu threw down the snakelet and hastily ran to her small treehouse, changing into a set of clean clothes.
When she came out from the treehouse, she was holding a lot of bottles and jars in her hands.
“Weak chicken, the wound on your wing is quite serious. Don’t move around, let me see.” Qiao Mu frowned as she set the little chick on her thighs, dressing the wound on its wing.
Meanwhile, on the other end, the water child stared at the snakelet sternly. “You can’t run around recklessly here. More importantly, you can’t eat the veggies here on the sly.”
