Chapter 262 -258 Isn’t This a Misunderstanding?
“`
“Splat,” half a snake’s head hit Taotie’s skull with deadly precision, causing Taotie to roll his eyes back and collapse stiffly to the ground, the half snake’s head trapping him inside.
The half blood-drenched snake’s head was like a burial mound, and Taotie was the steamed bun filling inside the mound.
Long after the blood mist in the air had dissipated,
Fang Xiaocao emerged from behind the stalactite, rushing frantically over the scattered flesh and blood on the ground, searching for her three subordinates.
“Tom—”
“Hummingbird—”
“Taotie—”
Fang Xiaocao kept calling out the names of the three.
In the mushy mess of the Giant Serpent’s blood and flesh, she searched for traces of Tom and the others.
Fang Xiaocao had to find Tom and the others; she needed to see them alive or confirm their death. The lives of the three were tied to her own survival; without their protection, she couldn’t possibly make it out of the cave, let alone down the mountain.
Soon, Fang Xiaocao spotted a human hand amidst the pile of torn flesh. She paused, her pretty face showing an expression of urgent distress as she scrambled toward it in a panic.
By the looks of it, it was a woman’s hand.
Fang Xiaocao guessed it must be Hummingbird’s.
“Could it be…”
“Hummingbird is dead?”
Doubts rose in Fang Xiaocao’s mind.
When she reached the mound of risen flesh, Fang Xiaocao no longer cared about the stench of snake flesh and snake blood or how nauseating the scene before her was.
Using her hands and feet, she frantically dug through the pile of flesh that was a person’s height, quickly uncovering a woman’s head from within the pile.
Seeing the head, Fang Xiaocao’s heart turned cold.
The face on the head was indeed Hummingbird’s!
“It’s over…”
Fang Xiaocao’s face fell, her heart feeling icy cold. The great general she had just acquired, barely warmed up to her, and now she was gone?
Fang Xiaocao continued digging down, intending to excavate Hummingbird’s head from the flesh to bury it somewhere, as a way to honor the brief bond of master and servant they had shared…
“Hm?”
Suddenly, Fang Xiaocao stopped short.
“Is there a neck?”
Fang Xiaocao blinked and muttered to herself.
Then she felt further down…
The collarbone was there…
The shoulders…
The chest…
Suddenly!
Hummingbird’s head opened its eyes.
Sharp and cold eyes shot straight at Fang Xiaocao.
The pile of torn flesh writhed, and a blood-stained hand violently shot out from the flesh, grasping Fang Xiaocao’s neck.
“Motherf…”
“Playing… playing dead…”
Fang Xiaocao exclaimed in shock.
She tried to struggle, but Hummingbird’s grip was too tight; the more Fang Xiaocao struggled, the tighter Hummingbird grasped.
Soon, Fang Xiaocao began to feel suffocated.
“Cough cough…”
Fang Xiaocao coughed painfully.
Her hands grabbed at Hummingbird’s hand.
Her little face turned beet red.
Just as Fang Xiaocao began to despair, thinking her end was near, Hummingbird suddenly let go, looking at Fang Xiaocao with a strange expression.
Gulping down air greedily, Fang Xiaocao lay on the ground, relishing the bitter pain on her neck as sweet relief of a narrow escape washed over her.
“Princess Your Highness…”
“I…”
“I am straight…”
“I don’t like women…”
Hummingbird looked at Fang Xiaocao with a tormented expression, hesitating as she spoke.
“It’s okay, I like women…”
Fang Xiaocao replied subconsciously.
As soon as she said it, Fang Xiaocao realized her mistake and quickly spat out, “Bah, my orientation is normal too, I’m not a lesbian!”
Suddenly, Fang Xiaocao was startled again.
“Hm?”
“Wait a minute!”

“Who is speaking?”
Confused, Fang Xiaocao lifted her head to see Hummingbird looking at her with an extremely bizarre gaze.
As if she were looking at…
A female hooligan!
Three parts scorn, two parts suspicion, five parts disdain in that look…
It was quite complicated!
That gaze was definitely from the heart!
Not even an Oscar-winning actress could pull off that look.
“You’re not dead?”
Fang Xiaocao blinked, exclaiming in surprise.
Hummingbird was at a loss for words.
Internally, she complained: “If I were dead, who just now was pinching you?”
“A ghost?”
“Please, there are no ghosts in this world. If there were, and with the number of people I’ve killed, I would have been knocked off by vengeful spirits long ago.”
Hummingbird rolled her eyes and with an effort pulled herself from the mush of flesh: “Dead, but not completely, and then resurrected by the touch of Princess Your Highness.”
Hummingbird spoke with deep resentment, straightening the underwear that Fang Xiaocao had twisted.
“Uh…”
Fang Xiaocao blinked, giving an awkward smile.
It was quite embarrassing…
Like being caught red-handed peeping.
Just now…
I couldn’t resist, indeed I did squeeze a little.
“Princess Your Highness…”
“I…”
Hummingbird looked at Fang Xiaocao with a conflicted expression, stammering, not knowing what to say.
“Oh my goodness!”
“How do I reject my female boss who’s trying to enforce an unwritten rule? Need advice, online and urgent, since I’m a girl!”
In Hummingbird’s mind was a mini version of herself, frantically scratching her head, just like when you don’t know the answers in a closed-book exam…
“No need to say it!”
Fang Xiaocao swung her little hand, shrieking.
Fang Xiaocao, seeing Hummingbird’s expression, could tell what Hummingbird was about to say.
“It was just a misunderstanding!”
“I, the princess, am female, and I prefer men!”
“Let’s pretend nothing ever happened!”
“OK?”
Fang Xiaocao defended herself with a serious face.
Hummingbird blinked and bit her lip.
She displayed an expression that said, I understand.
“Princess Your Highness, I understand!”
“Mm…”
“Rest assured, Princess Your Highness, Hummingbird will keep tight-lipped. If Princess Your Highness needs anything, Hummingbird will help catch your desired type in the future, and can also handle those…”
While saying this, Hummingbird made a throat-slitting gesture.
Fang Xiaocao: “…”
Fang Xiaocao slapped her forehead and squatted on the ground.
She drew circles in the ground with her finger in the mush of snake flesh.
She was utterly speechless!
The princess had gone emo!
This misunderstanding seemed unsolvable.
Such a headache!
Observing Fang Xiaocao’s behavior, Hummingbird opened her mouth but didn’t know how to comfort Princess Your Highness.
It’s not like she could…
Offer herself, could she?
In good conscience!
Hummingbird was only skilled in the art of killing…
After being emo for a while, Fang Xiaocao sighed helplessly and stood up from the ground.
This was not the time to be emo.
Saving Tom and Taotie was the priority.
If she didn’t dig those two out of this heap of minced flesh soon, they would surely suffocate to death.
“Get to the real work!”
“We need to find Taotie and Tom!”
Fang Xiaocao gave up on self-pity and, waving her hand, gave Hummingbird her instructions.
Seeing Fang Xiaocao was no longer emo, Hummingbird breathed a sigh of relief and began to look for the other two.
Had Fang Xiaocao continued her emo antics for a bit longer, Hummingbird was prepared to show her loyalty by gritting her teeth and sacrificing herself.
If Fang Xiaocao knew what Hummingbird was really thinking, she probably would have plunged headfirst into the mound of giant serpent flesh and drowned herself.
She couldn’t bear such an injustice for a minute!
