Reborn As Super Heiress

Because they’re not sure how long they’ll stay in this primeval jungle, to be on the safe side, they must stock up on any edible food they encounter.

After putting the snake meat into Space, Gu Xu meticulously cleaned up the surrounding traces, ensuring that nothing was left behind. Only then did he turn to leave.

Although Miji Jungle is a natural mining site for the Myanmar Government to excavate jadeite, the direction Huo Sining and Gu Xu are advancing is towards Huaxia Country’s Yun Province, with hundreds of kilometers of jungle in between.

The terrain in this area is extremely rugged, with endless jungles and lakes, countless poisonous creatures, and rampant beasts. It can be said that this is the largest primeval jungle in Myanmar, so much so that even the locals shy away from it.

Even the Zadu army stationed here usually only dares to hunt around the manor, never daring to venture deep into the jungle for hunting, as that would likely make them targets for jungle beasts.

Because of this, although the pursuit team reacting to Zadu’s kill order has entered this tropical jungle, everyone believes that Huo Sining wouldn’t be so foolish as to venture into such a jungle. So, the main force split more than half of its people to chase down the road leading outward, leaving only a squad of ten people to track into the jungle depths.

Compared to Huo Sining’s fearless ignorance, the soldiers dispatched by Zadu are naturally a lot more cautious. They are full of awe for this jungle, taking each step with utmost caution upon entering.

As a result, their speed was significantly slower. Despite Huo Sining and Gu Xu being delayed somewhat in their skirmish with the python, their pace remained quite fast, and surprisingly, Zadu’s men hadn’t caught up.

Perhaps because the giant python was a dominant force in that part of the jungle, after they took care of it, they unexpectedly found an unobstructed path ahead, without even a shadow of any wild animals.

Not until they crossed that section of the jungle and arrived at a river blocking their path did they have to stop.

The river wasn’t very wide, and the water in the river wasn’t particularly rapid. However, it was the rainy season at that time, and the river was overflowing its entire bed. When Gu Xu went down to walk through it, after a few steps, the water was up to his neck. Walking through was impossible, unless he swam.

Seeing this situation, Huo Sining didn’t hesitate and told Gu Xu directly, ”I’ll go across, and you go into Space. I have the Water-Repelling Pearl; I’ve crossed the Yellow River, so such a small river is no challenge at all.”

Huo Sining’s words were so confident that it made Gu Xu feel awkward. He felt like he had been the one slowing her down along the way, wondering if the roles of hero and beauty had been reversed.

Gu Xu felt a bit uneasy, but looking at the rapid river in front of him, he really had no choice but to follow his wife’s instructions.

With a wave of Huo Sining’s hand, Gu Xu was put into the storage ring. Huo Sining then waded into the river, which was only twenty or thirty meters wide; it took only ten minutes to cross.

Once reaching the other side, with a river between them, knowing the soldiers certainly couldn’t catch up now, Huo Sining and Gu Xu finally relaxed. They started a fire and leisurely roasted the snake meat they’d cut earlier to eat it as a lunch to replenish their energy.

The snake’s meat was really thick, a bit tough but incredibly fragrant when roasted, with a lot of chewiness. After running for hours, Huo Sining and Gu Xu had only eaten a little dry food to stave off hunger. Now with hot food available, they grabbed the snake meat and devoured it ravenously.

After finishing off the roasted meat, Huo Sining finally felt her empty stomach was a bit satiated, and she regained a lot of strength.

Her mind at ease, Huo Sining then noticed some discomfort. During the struggle with the python earlier, her face and hands were covered in the snake’s saliva, which had a foul stench. It made her feel queasy, so she stood up and went to the riverbank to wash off the grime.

Not long after washing up, Huo Sining heard Gu Xu calling her, and she hurriedly stood to run back.

Unexpectedly, as she stood up with too much force, she stepped on a moss-covered stone on the riverbank, slipped, and stumbled back into the river.

Though the river was rapid, Huo Sining had the Water-Repelling Pearl and wasn’t in any danger of being swept away. She got up from the water, walked a few steps, and tried to climb onto the riverbank.

Unexpectedly, during the climb, Huo Sining was stunned in the water.

Her right hand was holding onto a massive rock by the riverbank when suddenly the Heavenly Eye activated.

She could see clearly for tens of meters around the riverbank; suddenly, everything in front of her was a shimmering green, reflecting in the water, dazzling her.

”Oh my goodness...” Upon seeing this sight, Huo Sining couldn’t help but murmur in awe and surprise.

”What’s wrong?” Hearing the unusual sound of water, Gu Xu hurried over and saw Huo Sining standing dazed in the water, quickly asking, ”Why did you go into the water? Did you slip? There’s moss everywhere here; it’s dangerous. Did you get hurt anywhere?”

As he spoke, Gu Xu reached out to pull Huo Sining onto the riverbank.

Gu Xu pulled Huo Sining out of the water, but she still seemed dazed until he led her to the fire. Only then did she come to her senses.

Breaking free from Gu Xu’s arm, Huo Sining ran directly towards the riverbank on both ends.

Every few dozen steps, Huo Sining would press her hand on riverbank rocks, using the Heavenly Eye to survey them.

Finally, after confirming that the green had reached its end, she ran back.

After such back-and-forth for about ten minutes, Huo Sining’s face couldn’t hide her excitement. She looked at Gu Xu and laughed aloud, her expression was animated, completely oblivious to the fact that she was soaking wet and her complexion had become somewhat pale.

A blessing in disguise!

Huo Sining hadn’t noticed before; it wasn’t until she slipped and fell that she realized, this riverbank and riverbed were composed of Mogang Rock, and moreover, it was all jadeite from old sites.

At the instant her right hand climbed the rock, all she saw was beautiful, high-end jadeite shining with green!

She surveyed it all the way, and Huo Sining was even more stunned, feeling like she was floating!

The riverbank extended nearly a thousand meters, a kilometer in radius, and all this massive area of Mogang material was jadeite!
