Chapter 634: Survival

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Although Xiao Juan threatened that they would jump down, the commander of the Imperial Guards thought that he was just threatening. If he really wanted to die, he would not have escaped here with so much difficulty. Wouldn’t it be better to just wait for death in the town?

In the end, he would not want to die. As long as there was a chance of survival, it was impossible for him to commit suicide.

Therefore, the commander of the Imperial Guards did not take Xiao Juan’s threat seriously at all.

The imperial guards pounced on Xiao Juan and Yu Niaoniao.

Xiao Juan and Yu Niaoniao had no choice but to retreat.

However, the cliff was behind them.

They looked at each other.

Xiao Juan asked in a low voice, “Do you trust me?” Yu Niaoniao nodded without hesitation. “I trust you!”

“Then jump with me.”

“Okay.”

The two of them turned around together and jumped off the cliff under everyone’s stunned gazes!

The expression of the commander of the Imperial Guards changed drastically. He hurriedly rushed forward to stop her.

Unfortunately, it was too late.

When he rushed to the edge of the cliff, Xiao Juan and Yu Niaoniao had already jumped down.

The two of them fell straight down like kites with a broken string.

In just a moment, they were gone.

The commander of the imperial guards was in disbelief. “Are they crazy? They actually jumped down!”

Then, he grabbed the accompanying official and asked fiercely, “What’s under this cliff?”

The official replied with trepidation, “It’s, it’s the Heron River.”

The commander of the Imperial Guards gave the order loudly with his last hope.

“The river water is deep. They might not die if they fall. Go down and look for them. Remember, I want to see them whether they’re alive or if they’re dead!”

“Yes!”

The elite guards quickly descended the mountain and headed straight for the Egret River.

At the same time, Yu Niaoniao and Xiao Juan had already fallen heavily into the Heron River.

Xiao Juan hugged Yu Niaoniao tightly. He used the last bit of his internal energy to protect their bodies from the sudden powerful water pressure.

The cold river surrounded them, and the intense weightlessness made them dizzy.

When his internal energy was exhausted, Xiao Juan could no longer hold on and fainted.

Yu Niaoniao gripped his arm tightly and swam up desperately.

The two of them had just surfaced a little when they were washed away by the rapid river.

Water poured in through her ears and nose. It was uncomfortable. Even so, Yu Niaoniao did not dare to relax at all.

She held Xiao Juan with one hand and paddled desperately with the other.

But it was useless.

The river was really too fast. The powerful water current did not allow her to struggle at all.

She and Xiao Juan were washed further and further away.

After an unknown period of time.

Yu Niaoniao was about to run out of stamina.

If this continued, she would sink too.

Yu Niaoniao could not help but call out in her heart. Meng Xizhou and Lo Pingsha, where are you?

It was as if God had heard her call.

She vaguely saw a small boat floating in front of her. There was a person standing on it. From the way he was dressed, it seemed to be Meng Xizhou, who had not been separated from them for long.

Yu Niaoniao seemed to have grabbed the last straw to clutch at and shouted with all her might.

“Help! We’re here!”

Meng Xizhou was standing at the bow and craning his neck to look.

He muttered anxiously, “Why aren’t they here yet? Did something happen?” As soon as he finished speaking, he heard someone shout for help.

He looked in the direction of the voice and saw Yu Niaoniao and Xiao Juan struggling in the river. He hurriedly took off his coat, shoes, and socks and plunged into the water, quickly swimming to their side.

Lo Pingsha and Xia Haisheng paddled hard, and the small boat leaned towards Yu Niaoniao and Xiao Juan.

Yu Niaoniao and Xiao Juan were pulled onto the boat.

They slumped to the deck, breathing hard.

Lo Pingsha noticed the injuries on Xiao Juan’s body and immediately said, “Hurry up and carry Duke Lang in. He’s seriously injured. He has to be treated immediately.”

Meng Xizhou and Xia Haisheng worked together and carried Xiao Juan into the cabin and placed him on the bed.

There were spare medicine boxes in the cabin.

Lo Pingsha rolled up his sleeves, opened the medicine box, and began to treat Xiao Juan.

Yu Niaoniao was worried, but she knew that she could not help much now, so she did not cause trouble at the side.

She went to the next room to change into clean clothes.

When she came out, she saw Meng Xizhou and Xia Haisheng rowing desperately.

Although they had already met up with Duke Lang and the Princess Consort, the pursuers might not stop here. To be safe, they had to leave immediately.

Yu Niaoniao was extremely tired. She found a seat and sat down.

“Aren’t you in the Xia family village? Why are you here?”

Xia Haisheng was pleasantly surprised. He did not expect her to still remember him.

He quickly explained, “The Chen Nation’s army attacked Liaodong, and our Xia family village was not spared. Many people in the village were killed by the Chen Nation. I fled into the mountains with the remaining villagers and happened to encounter General Tang and the others, who were also hiding in the mountains. When I heard that they were coming to pick you up, I took the initiative to help.”

Meng Xizhou immediately said, “Haisheng is very familiar with the terrain in

Liaodong. With him leading the way, it saved us a lot of trouble.”

Yu Niaoniao said sincerely, “Haisheng, thank you.”

Xia Haisheng was very embarrassed. “Don’t say that. If you hadn’t saved us back then, everyone in our Xia family village would have died long ago. You’re our savior. It’s only right for us to do anything for you.”

Yu Niaoniao did not expect that those people would remember this kindness until now just because she had saved some people on the way to find Xiao Juan. She had recognized the selfishness and cruelty of human nature in the palace and had been deeply shaken.

But now she felt the warmth of human nature.

Not everyone in this world was evil. There were also many good people who were kind and knew how to repay kindness.

Lo Pingsha came out of the cabin.

Yu Niaoniao immediately stood up and ran over to ask.

“How’s Ah Juan’s injury?”

As Lo Pingsha rolled down his sleeve, he said, “The wound has been bandaged. His life is not in danger for the time being. He needs to recuperate for a while.”

Hearing this, Yu Niaoniao heaved a sigh of relief.

“I’ll go see him.”

With that, she hurriedly ran into the cabin.

Yu Niaoniao pushed open the door and entered the room. She saw that Xiao

Juan was already awake.

“Ah Juan, how are you feeling?”

Xiao Juan’s face was pale and his voice was very weak. “I’m much better.”

Yu Niaoniao held his hand tightly and smiled. “We all survived.”

Xiao Juan held her hand. “Yes, we all survived.”

Along the way, they experienced many pursuits and narrowly escaped death several times. They had almost lost their lives just now.

At this moment, they could finally rest for a while.

Yu Niaoniao leaned over to kiss him and pressed her cheek against his chest, rubbing against him.

She said briskly, “It’s said that we’ll be blessed after surviving a disaster. We’ve experienced so much and survived. We’ll definitely live happily in the future.” Xiao Juan looked down at her with an extremely gentle gaze. “Yes..”
