Chapter 180 Make your own vinegar and drink it yourself
Li Luo woke up slowly, and everything in front of him was dark. He looked around blankly, and for a moment he was a little dazed, not knowing what day it was.
He vaguely remembered that after Qingyao left, he was in a daze for a long time, so long that he couldn't remember what she looked like, so long that he thought he had let it go...
When he opened his eyes again, he was shocked to find that the surroundings were shaking. It turned out that he was trapped in a net bag and was being held in someone's hands.
"Don't pay attention to it. Those Taoists tried so hard to catch it. There must be a reason. It is definitely not an ordinary little snake."
"Taoyao, look at it now, lifeless and unable to move. How is it different from those insects entangled in spider webs? Let's be kind and save it."
"Well, it's up to you. Don't regret the cause you sowed today."
"Oh, the little guy is awake." The girl came closer with joy, a bright smile on her face.
This familiar yet strange face in front of him was like a sharp sword, cutting straight through Li Luo's defenses. In an instant, all the memories flooded into his mind like a tide, and the emotions hidden deep in his heart made it almost impossible for him to breathe.
"Taoyao, look at it, it's so silly. Little guy, run away quickly, and don't fall into the hands of those bad guys again, otherwise your snake gallbladder may be in danger." The girl stroked Li Luo gently, with kindness and sympathy in her eyes.
At that moment, Li Luo understood that he had never let it go.
However, Li Luo was one step too late again, and someone else was already by her side. In order to be able to transform into a human form as soon as possible and return to her side, Li Luo tried all kinds of methods desperately. He didn't care whether it was reasonable or not, and he didn't care whether it violated the way of heaven. Finally, one day, he became the Dragon King as he wished, and could walk freely in the world.
With joy and expectation, Li Luo passed through numerous obstacles, stepped through mountains of corpses and seas of blood, and came to her. But what awaited him was her disgusted eyes and the cold sword.
At that moment, Li Luo went crazy. His love was ignored, and his pure heart was treated like a worn-out shoe by her. But even so, he still couldn't bear to give up.
A dazzling flash of lightning flashed across the sky, followed by a rumble of thunder, pulling Li Luo back from his heart-wrenching memories. He silently looked out the window at the violent storm, trying to suppress his inner restlessness. This time, he must not scare her again.
Hua Miaomiao woke up from the dream in a cold sweat. She looked at her hands, which seemed to still have the blood and warmth of the dragon. She was not sure whether it was real or just a dream. Recalling the cruel deeds of the dragon in the dream, it was like a scene of purgatory on earth. She suddenly understood why Tao Yao opposed her using the dragon's inner elixir.
"Taoyao..."
"Are you still awake? What's wrong?"
Hua Miaomiao just murmured unconsciously, but she didn't expect the other party to respond immediately. You know, this spiritual weapon can only resonate when they care about each other. So, is Tao Yao always thinking about her? Thinking of this, Hua Miaomiao felt as sweet as honey in her heart.
"Miaomiao?" Tao Yao didn't get a response, and there was worry in her voice.
"If I hadn't insisted on asking for the dragon's inner elixir at that time, would there have been no disaster today?" Hua Miaomiao asked with a confused look.
Tao Yao sighed softly and consoled him, "Everything was already destined. You don't need to blame yourself too much. If you really want to trace the root cause, it is because I failed to keep it properly that this situation has occurred. It is my fault."
Hua Miaomiao felt even more depressed after hearing this, and couldn't help but think of the heroic figure fighting side by side with Tao Yao in her dream. In comparison, she felt that she was far behind, and a strong sense of inferiority surged in her heart. "Hua Yao is really amazing, right?"
"She is indeed very outstanding. Even Xiuzhu and the others have said that Huayao is the one who is most similar to Lingxi. But I just fell in love with you, a silly girl!"
When Hua Miaomiao heard this, her cheeks immediately flushed with shyness, and she muttered in a low voice: "You always say I'm stupid, but I'm not that stupid."
After hearing this, Tao Yao smiled dotingly and responded softly: "Okay, okay, my Miao Miao is very smart."
After getting Taoyao's affirmation, Hua Miaomiao closed her eyes contentedly and gradually fell asleep.
The next morning, the dazzling sunlight woke Hua Miaomiao up. She leaned on the dragon chariot with a sleepy face, glared at Li Luo, and complained: "Are you sick? I talked with you until midnight last night, and now I can't even sleep well. Can't you learn to be a human being?"
When the followers around heard this, they lowered their heads in fear, fearing that they would hear something they shouldn't hear and bring about a disaster that would bring them death.
Li Luo didn't care about Hua Miaomiao's rebuke. He said to Hua Miaomiao happily, "You accompany me to see the layout of Fengyi Palace first. I don't know if your sister will like it."
Hua Miaomiao rubbed her eyes, yawned and said, "Don't you have to go to the morning court?"
"It's just a trivial matter, don't be so serious about it." Li Luo waved his hand nonchalantly.
Hua Miaomiao frowned and blurted out: "Is this how you were the emperor before?"
Upon hearing this, Li Luo's smile faded, and he asked suspiciously, "How do you know that I was once an emperor?"
Hua Miaomiao's heart tightened, realizing that she had said the wrong thing. She quickly changed the subject and said loudly: "Why should I tell you? Also, when are you going to release Yizhu?"
"Wait until Xiao Zheng sends Niao Niao to the palace, and I will let her out. Or do you want to go and keep her company?" Li Luo smiled, revealing his sharp white teeth.
Hua Miaomiao shuddered. She didn't want to go into Li Luo's stomach. Who knew what was inside? "No need. I can wait."
The two of them fell into silence until they walked into Fengyi Palace. Hua Miaomiao looked at the luxurious house decoration and couldn't help but sigh in her heart that Li Luo was really attentive to Qingyao. It was a pity that Qingyao no longer existed in this world, and what he was persistently pursuing was just a mirage.
"Li Luo, don't you understand that once you are reincarnated, all your past will vanish like smoke? Now that you have transformed into a dragon, why don't you know how to cherish this rare opportunity?"
For a moment, Li Luo seemed to see the figure of that person in her. He felt annoyed and shook his head violently. When he looked up again, there was only coldness in his eyes, "Don't preach to me, you are not qualified to preach to me!"
Hua Miaomiao was extremely depressed. It was helpless to have such a powerful past life, which was totally incomparable!
"You should get along well with Tao Yao, and don't let him pester Niao Niao like he did in your previous life." Without Tao Yao as his love rival, this would probably be the happiest thing for Li Luo. Therefore, he would find ways to tie the two of them tightly together.
"Who do you think Tao Yao is entangled with?" Hua Miaomiao frowned and her tone became a little anxious.
"If he hadn't protected her everywhere and cared about everything, how could he have won Hua Yao's favor?"
Although she had heard that story from other people and knew it was just a carefully arranged script, Hua Miaomiao still felt very upset. The intimacy and tacit cooperation between them did not seem fake. Could it be that they really had no feelings for each other? Or was it because Tao Yao wanted to help her overcome the calamity that she had to sever the emotional ties with her?
Hua Miaomiao bit her lips tightly. At this moment, she could no longer suppress the impulse in her heart and was eager to ask Tao Yao for confirmation.
"I have already advised you all that I should. If you insist on banging your head against the wall, I will not stop you. I need to go back and have a good sleep now. Don't bother me if you don't have anything to do!" After saying this, Hua Miaomiao ran all the way back to her residence and locked herself in the room alone.
She took out the jade and anxiously called Taoyao's name, but received no response.
New images kept appearing in her mind, and they reminded her of the past that Taoyao and Huayao had. Although she resisted this idea in her heart, they were a perfect match made in heaven! Huayao was far superior to her in terms of appearance, temperament and talent. What did Taoyao like about her? Did he really like her? Thinking of this, she couldn't help but feel inferior and powerless...
