Chapter 377 Seafloor Adventure Team

Jiang Xiao wasn't lying. Second Princess Sofia quickly regained consciousness without a single scratch on her body. The severe internal injuries she had sustained were also completely healed by Zhong Ling's healing abilities.

Her current condition didn't resemble someone who had just gone through a life-or-death battle at all. Instead, she seemed like an energetic and ready-to-fight warrior.

In the dining hall, at the long table.

Jiang Xiao was focused on spreading butter on bread with his knife. Beside him, Yingying Bear was sitting on a chair just like Jiang Xiao, its fleshy bear paws resting on the table, curiously looking at the food spread out.

Jiang Xiao handed the buttered bread to Yingying Bear, who blinked its dark, beady little eyes, reached out with its furry paw, took the bread, and took a bite: "Chomp chomp... Yingying~"

This was the sound of chewing food, and a happy "hum".

Jiang Xiao poured cornflakes into a bowl, picked up the milk jug, poured milk over the cornflakes, and placed the bowl in front of Yingying Bear, stirring it constantly with a spoon, making crisp "ding ding" sounds.

Just as Jiang Xiao was busy serving Yingying Bear, Sofia entered.

Jiang Xiao braced himself and continued stirring the cornflakes, not daring to look up.

After the match just now, Prince Bino hadn't said a word either.

Before Jiang Xiao's victory, Prince Bino was a chatterbox, but when Jiang Xiao really completed the task and fulfilled Prince Bino's wish, Prince Bino had a gloomy face.

Jiang Xiao didn't know what Prince Bino was thinking. He looked at the food on the table, but he had no appetite.

When he saw the Second Princess enter, Prince Bino looked up, opened his mouth, but didn't say anything.

It was as if he was silenced.

So, Jiang Xiao was a little embarrassed at this time and could only continue stirring the cornflakes with his head down.

Unexpectedly, Sofia sat down beside Yingying Bear.

It was obvious that there weren't many rules in the Second Princess and Third Prince's home. At least, seating was very casual. Presumably, they were the biggest in this manor, and no one could control them.

Sofia reached out, tapped the milk jug with two fingers, and signaled to the waiter beside her: "Change it to a hot one."

As she spoke, Sofia also pushed aside the cornflakes mixed with cold milk.

"Ying?" The bamboo bear looked at Sofia curiously, reaching out to grab the bowl. Jiang Xiao quickly stopped it.

My little ancestor, now is not a good time to provoke the Princess.

Jiang Xiao rolled a grilled sausage in a pancake and stuffed it into Yingying Bear's mouth, finally diverting its attention.

The waiter immediately brought a pot of hot milk. Sofia held the bowl in front of Yingying Bear, poured some cornflakes, and said, "An impressive fight."

Jiang Xiao: "..."

Sofia flicked her fingers lightly, and the milk was hooked out of the pot, drawing an arc and pouring into the bowl.

Sofia gently moved her slender index finger, tapping in the air, and the milk and cornflakes in the bowl actually rotated and stirred automatically.

She said, "Your Silence Domain is very peculiar."

Jiang Xiao: "..."

Sofia said softly, "Does it include the effects of a Star Map? In the Star River stage, it's rare to find someone who can touch the threshold of Hua Xing Cheng Wu (Transformation of Stars into Martial Prowess)."

So... the Second Princess attributed the powerful effect of Diamond Silence to Hua Xing Cheng Wu?

"Glug... Glug..." Yingying Bear held the bowl, really not afraid of being burned, drank the cornflakes in one gulp, put it on the table, and looked at Sofia, "Ying~"

"What? Are you speechless?" Sofia gently scratched Yingying Bear's nose with one hand, then turned to look at Prince Bino, "You got what you wanted."

"I also see the gap between me and other Star Warriors of the same level more clearly." Prince Bino finally spoke, "What's even more terrifying is that I only know there's a gap, but I don't know how big the gap is."

Jiang Xiao felt a chill down his spine and quickly said, "Her Highness didn't take it seriously either. She held back at the beginning, it was all just a little fight. If we really went all out in a life-or-death battle, I definitely wouldn't be able to do it. It's easy for Star Sea phase mages to crush me in a fight."

"Hehe." Sofia smiled, "You're very modest. Maybe I didn't use my full strength, maybe I didn't pay enough attention to the fight, but when everything happened, it was too late. But you are a Star Warrior with a keen sense of smell, you are a very special healing-type Star Warrior. In a life-or-death battle, I would rather you stand by my side, as my teammate."

Jiang Xiao fell silent.

Just take the cue when it's given, why say all this nonsense? I still want to eat!

Jiang Xiao thought for a while and said, "Actually, I have the heart of a warrior, but the Star Map stipulates that I am a healing-type support, which has become my protective shell. I have used this protective shell to trick many people."

Sofia looked at Prince Bino and said softly, "Maybe he should join us."

Prince Bino was stunned for a moment, then his face lit up with joy and said, "Really? Sofia? You agreed to take me along?"

Sofia was clearly saying that Jiang Xiao could join them, but Prince Bino said "agreed to take me along".

What are they going to do?

Didn't Sofia disdain to bring Prince Bino along?

"Ying..." Yingying Bear was stuffed with a mouthful of pancakes and grilled sausage by Jiang Xiao again. It rubbed its eyes while eating and stood up from its seat.

This huge seat provided it with a natural resting environment. It circled on the chair, found a comfortable position, licked the milk stain on its mouth with its pink tongue, and lay down.

As Yingying Bear lay down, Jiang Xiao's eyes met Sofia's.

Jiang Xiao's heart stirred slightly.

The Second Princess... is really beautiful!

The differences between Eastern and Western women are indeed great. Jiang Xiao certainly likes the gentleness of the East, but occasionally looking at exotic customs feels pretty good too.

When Sofia's clear lake-like eyes gently fell on him, Jiang Xiao seemed to see a beautiful goddess statue, noble and elegant.

Jiang Xiao couldn't help but turn his head to look at Prince Bino. The difference is too big, isn't it?

Are they really from the same father?

Why is Sofia's temperament reaching its peak, while you, Bino, are just stuck at the superficial level of being good-looking?

Where did your Highness's temperament go?

Was it all sucked away by those two girls in the cabin?

Sofia said softly, "No one will agree to us exploring the seabed, whether it's the family, the people, or the housekeeper beside us."

As she spoke, Sofia turned to look at the waiter beside her.

The waiter's heart tightened. He lowered his head, looking docile and obedient, without speaking, as if expressing his attitude.

Jiang Xiao asked curiously, "What are you two siblings plotting?"

Prince Bino gripped the dining fork excitedly, his voice trembling slightly, "To explore the unknown seabed! To explore the unexplored territory."

Unexplored?

Jiang Xiao heard this English word again. Judging from the name of the game on the plane, its Chinese game name was translated as: Mysterious Sea.

Prince Bino looked at Jiang Xiao and said, "Do you know what exactly happened in the North Atlantic?"

Jiang Xiao shook his head and said, "I just watch the news. I know that some countries have suffered from tsunamis. I think some other-dimensional spaces should have opened up near the sea? Some powerful Star Beasts have appeared near the sea?"

Wait...

Jiang Xiao was slightly stunned and looked at Prince Bino, "You asked me to come here not just to participate in the competition, and not just to fight your sister? You want to take me down to the seabed?"

Prince Bino's expression froze upon hearing this, and he hesitated without responding.

"It can't be, right?" Jiang Xiao looked at Sofia and said curiously, "I think I'm quite strong, but I have to admit that there are many healing-type Star Warriors who are stronger than me, not to mention I'm a land-based doctor. Can't you find a healing-type teammate?"

"As I said," Sofia elegantly crossed her legs and smoothed out her black skirt, "Countless eyes are watching us, not allowing us to be in the slightest danger, or even in a dangerous environment."

"If I were an ordinary person, maybe I would enjoy all of this, enjoy the attention, enjoy the care and protection from all sides, but..." Sofia overlapped her hands on her lap, turned to look at Jiang Xiao, and said with a smile, "But I am a Star Warrior, I am the next Sea Burial King of the Kingdom of Sima."

Beside her, Prince Bino curled his lips in disdain, but said nothing.

Jiang Xiao also understood that Bino secretly took the title and went to the World Cup to swindle and deceive. Under the attention of such a world-class event, this title was naturally placed on Bino's head.

Sofia: "With you, maybe I can safely take Bino along."

Jiang Xiao was a little embarrassed and said, "I can't swim... My Star Techniques are all about causing trouble on land."

Bino suddenly said, "Don't worry about this. Sofia will make you move freely in the water, like a fish."

Jiang Xiao grinned. He himself wasn't a peaceful person, and of course he wanted to see the deep ocean.

Most importantly, he wasn't completely handing over his fate to others.

Jiang Xiao's Yu Lei (Tear Domain) Domain allowed Jiang Xiao to swim freely in the sea, ensuring that he had the ability to control his own life.

If the Lei Yu (Tear Rain) Three Star Technique hadn't been upgraded, even if the siblings said nice things, even if Jiang Xiao was tempted, it would be impossible for him to go to the sea with them.

In this world, there aren't many people who can make Jiang Xiao entrust his life to them, and these siblings were clearly not among them.

Jiang Xiao said, "The three of us? Go explore that unknown territory?"

Sofia tilted her head slightly and pointed to the window in the distance.

"Huh?" Jiang Xiao turned his head to look, but saw several vines spreading up from the window, easily opening the window. Then, they reached towards Jiang Xiao.

The green vines, with sharp thorns, swept across the huge dining hall, passed through the dining table, and came to Jiang Xiao's face.

Jiang Xiao couldn't help but lean back, but the vines paused slightly. The next moment, a fiery red rose bloomed.

Jiang Xiao: ???

Jiang Xiao turned to look at the window, but saw a familiar figure being lifted into the restaurant by the vines: Juliet Mo Lawren.

"I said, we will meet again." Juliet landed slowly, gently twirling a petal in her naturally drooping hand, while the vines in front of Jiang Xiao bloomed with flowers one after another.

"This is your reward." Juliet said as she walked over, "I heard that you put our proud Star Sea Second Princess into the ranks of vying for the runner-up?"

Jiang Xiao: "..."

It was obvious that Sofia and Juliet were good friends. Since Juliet came in, Sofia's state had changed significantly. She smiled and glared at Juliet.

Jiang Xiao sighed in his heart. These "second generation" Star Warriors with prominent identities were all restless people...

Jiang Xiao: "You, a flower-playing, grass-playing person, what are you doing in the deep sea?"

Juliet raised her eyebrows slightly and crushed the petal in her naturally drooping hand. With her movement, the fiery red bouquets blooming in front of Jiang Xiao instantly shattered and fell in front of Jiang Xiao's table.

Juliet looked at Jiang Xiao with a gloomy gaze and said, "After meeting again, is this the first thing you said to me?"
