Chu Tian patiently endured the hunger this time, casting his fishing rod repeatedly.
Fortunately, a fish would bite within thirty seconds of each cast.
In just a few minutes, over a dozen fish had been tossed onto the bank.
Below, the schools of fish erupted, ravenously snatching the instant noodle crumbs that fell from his fishing.
Suddenly, Chu Tian's ears twitched.
"If you're awake, get lost already!"
Without turning his head, though he couldn't use his divine abilities, his senses and hearing were still intact.
Just now, the unconscious Seventh Princess's breath had faltered, changing from before.
She was clearly no longer unconscious.
As expected, after he spoke, the Seventh Princess's eyes snapped open.
There were still five finger marks on her fair neck, presenting a patch of deep red.
She sat up and looked around.
The white cloth bundle that the little brat had shoved into Chu Tian's arms earlier was still there.
The Seventh Princess paused slightly and reached out to pick it up directly.
The white cloth bundle contained the so-called ancestor's skull.
She then happened to see Chu Tian pulling up his line and casting his hook.
Her gaze suddenly fixated.
"Impossible… How could you possibly catch Blue Gold Spirit Fish? And… so many?"
Looking at the pile of a dozen or twenty Blue Gold Spirit Fish.
The Seventh Princess displayed an expression of disbelief.
"Blue Gold Spirit Fish? Are they difficult to catch?"
As he spoke, another fish was tossed onto the bank by Chu Tian.
The Seventh Princess heard his words and pursed her lips.
She slowly walked over to Chu Tian, watching him bait the hook, cast, and reel.
It was almost a seamless flow.
"Why haven't you left yet? Aren't you afraid I'll kill you?"
Chu Tian glanced at her.
"You won't! You would have killed me long ago! Besides, I know I was framed!" The Seventh Princess swallowed, her eyes fixed on the fish.
"You know? Then why did you try to kill me?" Fu Tian felt a bit resentful. When this woman fought him before, every move was aimed at vital points, every strike intended to kill him.
"I…" Seeing Chu Tian yell at her, the woman's eyes actually welled up, looking as if she was about to cry from grievance.
"Damn… Don't give me that!" Chu Tian rolled his eyes.
He had only met this woman in passing, and their acquaintance began as enemies. While Chu Tian admired her, he felt no other emotions.
Although this woman had a good figure and appearance, she was still half a step inferior to Luo Luo and the others.
Chu Tian didn't show her any favor even with her tearful appearance. The woman stomped her foot and turned, walking a few steps away to find a clean spot and sit down.
Chu Tian glanced at her from the corner of his eye, wondering what she was up to.
Was she planning to cling to him?
Looking at it, about twenty fish were enough.
He put down his fishing rod and began to prepare the catch.
Soon, the so-called Blue Gold Spirit Fish were sizzling on the charcoal fire.
The aroma spread, very enticing.
The golden color made Chu Tian's stomach rumble even more violently.
Grumble…
However, the woman not far from him was also staring intently in his direction.
A sound of hunger also came from her.
Chu Tian turned his gaze to her, looking at her with a hint of amusement.
The woman lowered her head in embarrassment.
But her stomach, shamelessly, continued to cry out.
"Come here!" Just as the grilled fish was ready.
Chu Tian picked up a fish and called out to the woman.
He originally thought she would hesitate a bit.
To his surprise, upon seeing the grilled fish in Chu Tian's hand, she actually stood up and walked over directly.
As a result, she began to devour the grilled fish.
"Are you really a princess?" Fu Tian asked curiously as he watched her eat.
"Mm!" The woman finished the palm-sized grilled fish in a few bites, her eyes fixed on the other grilled fish over the fire.
"Damn…" Chu Tian was about to reply when he saw the woman actually reach out to snatch a fish.
He quickly shielded it with his hand.
He hadn't eaten yet, and his stomach was rumbling fiercely. The hunger was unbearable, yet this woman was still trying to snatch it.
"One is enough for you, isn't it? If you try to grab another, believe it or not, I'll knock you out!"
The group seemed not to have heard Chu Tian's words.
Their hands did not stop, and they muttered,
"Give it to me, quickly! This is a Blue Gold Spirit Fish. My father only gets to eat one like this each month, and I only get to eat it once a year. This time, I must truly indulge myself!"
Chu Tian blocked her with one hand and grabbed a fish with the other, stuffing it into his mouth.
However, the woman still managed to snatch one away.
He couldn't use heavy force on her again.
After all, she was just a mere consumer.
He had no deep hatred for this woman.
But her words piqued Chu Tian's curiosity.
"You only get to eat it once a year? You're too pitiful! Is this thing very precious?"
"Wuwuwu…"
However, the response Chu Tian received was muffled sounds; he couldn't understand anything.
Chu Tian found her eating habits amusing and was about to tell her to eat slowly, saying he'd catch more once his hunger subsided.
But just as he was about to speak, he suddenly felt the ground beneath him shake.
Then, he saw a head emerge from beside the charcoal fire.
Next, a hand quickly reached out from above and snatched a fish.
Then, a small figure shot out from the ground and, in a flash, ran behind the woman.
"Of course, it's precious. Blue Gold Spirit Fish are spiritual treasures of heaven and earth, a level four spirit beast. Their flesh contains a large amount of spiritual energy that can be absorbed rapidly.
The most difficult part is capturing them. There's nothing that can resist their tearing bites. I didn't expect you to have such a line made of spirit artifact material, and that fishhook, they are all extraordinary items.
I truly didn't expect it to be so extravagant, to actually use items of this grade to make fishing gear… Big brother, how rich must you be?"
This small figure, while shoveling fish into its mouth, also mumbled a lot.
Fortunately, it was much better than the Seventh Princess.
And at this moment, Chu Tian's eyes widened.
"Little brat…"
This figure was the kid who had shoved the skull into his embrace earlier.
Regarding Chu Tian's angry reprimand,
The kid grinned and bared his teeth.
Then, he stretched his head over the woman's shoulder, tilting it to look at her.
He looked very affectionate.
The woman did not dodge.
Then, the kid said,
"Seventh Sister, didn't I tell you? We'll definitely escape this time, and we'll even meet a noble person to help us!"
After saying this, he chuckled and glanced at Chu Tian.
"Get away, you smell of earth, it's so unpleasant! Da Feng Novel Network.
It's not me telling you, but you privately taking a master, and even taking a dirt rat as your master, truly disgraces our royal family.
Also, you've gone too far this time. How could you dig up our ancestral grave! And take out the ancestor's skull!
Let's see how Father punishes you when we get back. I'm afraid you might even lose your life!"
The kid took a step back and patted himself.
Dust immediately flew everywhere.
This made the Seventh Princess frown and move forward to dodge.
"Little Nine…"
He yelled angrily, but there was doting in his brow.
Seeing the two of them, Chu Tian immediately guessed something!
"You know each other? Are you sisters?"
"Pah! Who are you calling big brother? You're the one who's confused about genders, you're the sister!"
The little brat jumped over directly.
"Who are you calling big brother? I know you?"
Chu Tian knew he had spoken incorrectly, but this kid was calling him big brother one after another.
