Chapter 848: Chapter 847: A Sense of Security from a Little Girl

Feng Dingchu thought he was doomed this time.

Even the most formidable martial artists and armies didn’t scare him.

He never expected that a small amount of water would be his fear.

For someone poor at swimming, a little water can indeed be life-threatening.

With his last breath, after pushing Chu Qianli upwards, he truly had no strength left.

His head felt murky, his arms went limp, and finally, his whole body collapsed, sinking down into the depths of the water.

Death seemed certain.

He wasn’t even sure if he had any regrets in this life.

Just when complete despair set in, some images suddenly flashed through his mind.

He didn’t understand why that sword had struck him.

After all, they were blood brothers...

Suddenly, something was shoved into Feng Dingchu’s mouth.

Someone was speaking, bubbling sounds through the water, which he couldn’t make out clearly.

But it seemed that this thing allowed him to breathe.

Feng Dingchu took a sharp breath but inhaled a mouthful of water along with the air, not used to this object.

"Adjust your breathing!"

He opened his eyes to see what appeared to be the young lady in front of him, trying desperately to say something to him.

But because they were underwater, all that came out when she opened her mouth were bubbles, and he couldn’t hear anything clearly.

She had something in her mouth.

Feng Dingchu realized that he too had been given such a thing.

Breathe...

He took a breath.

That’s right, he really inhaled a breath of air!

With each inhale, he drew in another breath.

Feng Dingchu took several deep breaths; water still entered his mouth, but he gradually learned to adjust his breathing.

All he needed was to bite down on this thing and breathe in slowly, not rushing it.

Chu Qianli pulled him, inching towards the surface above.

But he was still useless in the water, flailing his limbs about.

In her hands, Chu Qianli produced two flotation boards from who knows where, and she wedged one into Feng Dingchu’s arms.

Holding the board, made of an unknown material, Feng Dingchu gradually got the hang of balancing, and together they made their way towards the water’s surface.

Finally, with a splash, they emerged from the water.

Feng Dingchu clutched the flotation board tightly, spitting out the object from his mouth before gasping for air.

It took some time before he fully caught his breath.

His breathing became smooth again.

He still clung to the board, refusing to let go, fearing he would sink back down as soon as he released his grip.

"How are you feeling?" Chu Qianli asked, removing her underwater breathing device.

"Not... too bad," Feng Dingchu answered, still catching his breath, but by then, he knew he had narrowly escaped death.

"The exit should be just above us; we need to keep searching. You... Hey! Hold on tight!"

He had let the board slip by accident, nearly falling back into the water!

"Hero! You’re a reclusive expert!"

This landlubber! Really... pitiable yet amusing!

"Hold tight! It’s too deep here for me to dive down and save you again, you know?"

"I... know." His hand had accidentally loosened, and he had choked on several mouthfuls of water; how could he dare relax now?

The sensation of choking was terrifying!

"Just follow me... Actually, wait, I’ll tie us together!"

Chu Qianli procured a rope from Taobao, tied it around Feng Dingchu’s waist and then secured it to her own. Only then did she feel at ease to move around in the water, looking for an exit.

Feng Dingchu clung to the board, being pulled along, floating aimlessly on the water’s surface.

Who would have thought that a sense of security would come from a rope, a young lady?

He had never experienced this feeling in his life!

But with her there, at least, he felt he could indeed survive.
