Chapter 1850
"This is my business, you have no right to stop me." Ao He deliberately teased the little carp; she could see it, the little carp's eyes were filled only with Chen Chuyang, always staying by his side, unwilling to leave or go back.
Her memory had awakened, yet she still clung to Chen Chuyang's side; what charm does Chen Chuyang possess that makes this incredibly proud woman stay for him instead of returning home? In Ao He's memory, Ao Li was extremely proud, just like her, looking down on the true dragons of their clan, and the other true dragon offspring were the same—none of them worthy of a glance.
Talents of other races were even more beneath her notice; as for humans, she wouldn't even spare them a glance, feeling embarrassed.
Now, Ao Li has changed her mind, following a human by his side, and even calling him master—this is utterly crazy!
Ao He assessed Ao Li; her strength had weakened, and her bloodline had weakened as well—it was no longer that of a True Dragon, but……some kind of spirit fish bloodline. Recently, the dragon bloodline awakened, the two merged into one, becoming a unique bloodline.
In the end, the dragon bloodline predominates; this is inevitable.
However, Ao Li did not completely abandon the spirit fish bloodline; Ao He was very curious—what exactly did she want to do? She already had a bit of interest, but now her interest grew richer, her curiosity deeper.
"Hmph, Ao He, you're already so unlucky—don't stay by the master's side, don't bring your misfortune to him." The little carp crossed her arms, glaring at Ao He, telling her not to approach Chen Chuyang; this woman is very unlucky, unlucky from birth, and still is.
If a woman like her were allowed to stay by Chen Chuyang's side, she would bring misfortune to both master and herself.
Her fortune and this woman's misfortune are opposites; the luckier she is, the more unlucky Ao He becomes—otherwise, why would she bear the character 'black' in her name? It's because she is extremely unlucky.
"I don't mind, what do you mind?" Ao He smiled at Chen Chuyang and said: "Human, you'd agree, right?"
The little carp turned her head, winked at Chen Chuyang, signaling him not to nod or agree.
Chen Chuyang nodded with a smile: "Not bad, you can stay by my side; this is a deal I made with your elder brother. Of course, if you're unwilling, I won't force you—outside is dangerous, the Kunpeng Guardian is searching everywhere for your trace; once you leave the Mangshan Mountain Range, he'll find you quickly."
"By then, whether you can survive will be a question."
"Master, you can't do this—you don't know how unlucky she is." The little carp stamped her foot, expressing her dissatisfaction, pointing at Ao He and fuming: "Ao He, true to her name, she's unlucky to the extreme; everyone around this woman shares her misfortune. Look at the Black Water True Dragon clan—only she remains alive; look at those around her, all utterly ill-fated."
"Even me—when I was with her, I caught her misfortune, and look at my state now."
"Ah."
The little carp sighed; even she couldn't withstand Ao He's misfortune, let alone others—one can imagine.
Fortunate as she is, she cannot counter Ao He's misfortune; Chen Chuyang is her master, so she naturally doesn't want him to catch that misfortune.
Regarding this, the little carp truly went to great lengths.
"Master, believe me—it's true, she's very unlucky and awful; don't get tainted by her, for anyone associated with her meets no good end." The little carp declared earnestly again.
Ao He curled her lips: "That's your stupidity; I warned you early not to trust that lowly woman, yet you foolishly believed her, and now you've ended up like this—can you blame me?"
"I am unlucky, true, but that was long ago; I'm not the same as before, and I won't bring misfortune to others."
"Don't use your stupidity to intensify my misfortune, Ao Li—you are truly foolish."
Calling each other foolish over and over, with a tone of exasperated affection, the relationship between Ao He and the little carp is genuinely good—too bad they're now at odds.
For Chen Chuyang's sake, they spare no effort to expose each other's shortcomings.
The little carp's face flushed, yet she stubbornly retorted: "That's another matter, alright? You really are unlucky; everyone around you has suffered."
"I haven't said that wrong, have I?"
Ao He fell silent, acknowledging the statement; over the years, everyone around her has died out.
Parents, elder brother, and other clansmen—all have perished.
Those around her drifted away one by one; only Ao Li remained alive, having endured so many years unharmed. Ao He insisted it wasn't her fault, but that they themselves were unlucky, their calamity having arrived, so they naturally died.
"Human, you're Chen Chuyang, right? If I follow you, will you blame me for bringing misfortune upon you?" Ao He asked deliberately, wanting to clarify things beforehand so she wouldn't be blamed if something went wrong.
"Hahaha, rest easy—I believe in misfortune and such, but I don't think misfortune can affect me."
"My fate is hardy; mere misfortune is not worth mentioning."
He needn't fear these; having mastered a small world, he's long been immune to so-called misfortune.
It cannot affect him nor bring him misfortune; his Hunyuan Dao Scripture is no joke—his own strength can eradicate all misfortune. Misfortune, in a sense, is a kind of curse; Ao He's constitution might be special.
She surely knows this herself, only she hasn't spoken it.
"That's what you said, human—since you're not afraid, I can follow you." Ao He said this on purpose, just to provoke Ao Li.
The little carp exploded instantly.
"No, Ao He, you can't do that, and you can't follow the master and me—I disagree." The little carp objected vehemently; previously she wouldn't have cared about such things, but now, for the master's safety and her own, she absolutely could not agree.
Chen Chuyang found it amusing, didn't bother to stop them, and instead found it quite funny.
Ao He also watched the little carp, amused by her behavior.
"This is between me and Chen Chuyang; it's none of your business."
"Nonsense, the master's affairs are my affairs; you staying by the master's side will be bad for him and also bad for me—I don't want to be harmed by you again, Ao He; please leave, don't follow us."
"However you want to act is fine, as long as you leave the master's side."
The little carp said helplessly, she truly feared Ao He following the master, and also feared her clinging to herself.
They cannot withstand the pressure, nor can they endure Ao He's misfortune.
Misfortune is contagious; moreover, Ao He's misfortune is different—she herself is not unlucky, but those around her are; put another way, she doesn't fear misfortune, yet anyone near her cannot tolerate it, and a slight taint brings instant death and disappearance.
