Insanely Pampered Wife: Divine Doctor Fifth Young Miss Chapter 2311 - Side Story - Wu Xiao Dao Edition（1）Impeccable Timing

On that pivotal day, Sima You Yue found herself reeling from a barrage of successive shocking updates.

From the instant she awoke that morning, bouts of vomiting assaulted her. Based on prior experiences, she suspected she could be expecting.

She lacked the chance to inform Wu Lingyu. He Xi returned accompanied by someone, declaring she'd discovered a Little Sprite in the Blessed Land. Claiming it as hers now, it had followed her back.

Xuan Qiu He's recognizable face, paired with an alien expression and translucent form, eclipsed even the revelation of her pregnancy, stunning her into total forgetfulness.

Next, Wu Qi Yao arrived, announcing he'd nearly wrapped up Underworld business and returned to visit her. Simultaneously, he delivered another update: Mu Si had embarked on trials and tribulations over a decade prior.

Underworld denizens could opt for such trials and tribulations to contemplate life and death, yet Mu Si's choice still took her aback.

That said, it proved beneficial for him. Following the prior incident, he'd turned profoundly quiet, allowing these ordeals to forge his resolve more effectively.

After mother and son conversed briefly, Wu Lingyu returned bearing a grave demeanor, flanked by Wu Xiao Dao's young companions.

The pair of young friends bore injuries, their faces ashen, plunging Sima You Yue's heart into dread.

“Sorry, we didn’t take good care of Xiao Dao.” One of the women apologized remorsefully.

“What happened?” Sima You Yue grew dizzy, with He Xi swiftly stepping forward to steady her.

“Xiao Dao is gone.” The other man responded, “We were hunting for treasure then, when a tribulation lightning suddenly crashed from the heavens, ripping space open. Xiao Dao stood right beside it, tumbled into the fissure, and vanished.”

“What?!” The news left Sima You Yue stunned and reeling. Early in her pregnancy, her frame felt frail, preventing her from standing. Wu Qi Yao and He Xi hastened to ease her into a seat.

No sooner had she sat than vomiting overtook her, so violently she heaved up bile.

Wu Lingyu dashed over, soothing her back while saying, “Don’t worry, Xiao Dao's life jade shows cracks but remains intact, meaning she's safe.”

Sima You Yue recalled her exchange with Little Helper. He'd warned of Wu Xiao Dao's immense tribulation, noting the person's location defied divination then, urging her against fixation or undue concern.

Prior searches failed because the event hadn't transpired, blocking divination. With it now occurred, locating her posed less challenge.

“Lingyu, dispatch Devil Realm forces to search. Yao Yao, mobilize Underworld contacts. I'll reach out to Grandfather and others shortly, sending Ghost Realm seekers. No matter the continent or realm she reaches, we'll track her down.” Sima You Yue directed with composure.

“Alright, we'll head back to organize now, try not to fret.” Wu Lingyu assumed her distress and vomiting stemmed from Wu Xiao Dao's disappearance.

Sima You Yue twisted away, retching several more times, though only dry heaves emerged, no bile forthcoming.

“Mother, don't fret over Big Sister; she's loaded with life-saving treasures, she'll pull through.” He Xi watched Sima You Yue suffer post-vomiting, tears brimming in her eyes.

“I’m fine, I’m just pregnant. Go ahead.” Sima You Yue gestured for Wu Lingyu and Wu Qi Yao to proceed.

Wu Lingyu and Wu Qi Yao stood frozen. Pregnant? They stayed put now. Plans to return and handle matters shifted; they summoned aides for orders instead.

Wu Xiao Dao's location was merely unknown, no immediate peril. Beside Sima You Yue's pregnancy, it seemed secondary.

Given her luck's dire streak, she more often cursed others' fortune. Likely just light scrapes, nothing grave.

Wu Xiao Dao remained oblivious to her father and brother's musings. She knew only her abysmal fortune had consigned her to the space rift's maw.

At the dire juncture, she invoked Hades' taught safeguard. Duration in the rift escaped her, as did her exit point. Post-emergence, spirit power eluded her, and critically, she plummeted from 10,000 meters at breakneck velocity.

“It’s over, it’s over, I’m really going to be killed this time!” Her inner wail echoed desperately.

Loathing a pulped demise, she frantically summoned bodily spirit power, aiming for terminal protection.

Unbeknownst to her, her fall site hosted a ferocious clash below. Devoid of spirit power, combatants waged primal warfare. Scant few managed fleeting flight, yet all ensnared in melee.

Stalemate bound the fray; none detected the descending figure.

“Fu Ming Shao, no need to battle unto death—yield your forces meekly!” The bearded man loomed powerfully astride his mount, sneering at the man in his twenties: “Surrender, and I'll petition the Emperor to spare you. After all, you're Eastern Qi Kingdom's Prince; your Emperor might cede territory to ransom you.”

Fu Ming Shao, though wounded, held firm atop his steed. His retort sneered: “You pitted 100,000 against my 20,000. Hmph, only vile tactics let you match us—so what right have you to demand this Prince's capitulation?”

Fu Ming Shao's barbs struck the man's rawest nerve, provoking a sneer: “Reinforcements stalled—harbor no fantasies of aid. Rejecting gracious wine leaves punitive draught!”

The bearded man readied a savage onslaught; slaying Fu Ming Shao sealed triumph!

“Ahhhhhhhhh—” An overhead shriek pierced, trailed by a thunderous crash; the bearded man and his ill-fated mount squashed into meat paste by the plummeter.

This unforeseen twist dumbfounded everyone. Both sides' troops froze, gaping at the fresh crater.

By the pit's edge, horse and general heads stared wide-eyed, rife with injustice over their gruesome ends.

With the foe's general slain thus, Fu Ming Shao's adjacent general thundered across the field: “Your General is already dead, those who surrender will be spared!”

His potent inner force amplified the proclamation battlefield-wide.

“Sixth Prince, this is...”

Fu Ming Shao and his entourage stared at the grounded white-robed woman, perplexed by the oddity.

How plummets one from skies? She minced general and steed, yet emerged wholly unscathed.

The entire affair brimmed with enigma.

Wu Xiao Dao sprawled briefly, then staggered upright, patting her rear while muttering, “Thank goodness spirit power shielded me at the brink, or I'd truly perish. Hey, who are you guys?”

Only then spotting the surrounding throng, she lifted her gaze, curiosity clashing with Fu Ming Shao’s profound stare.
