The Disabled Tyrant’s Pet Palm Fish [Transmigration] - Chap 41

Chap 41
Jing-wang waited beside the pond for quite a while, but he still didn’t see the fun-loving fish
return. He suddenly realized that to give this kind of gift was somewhat foolish. Would the carp
demon indulge in the fun and forget to return home? Would the carp demon decide to just live
inside the pond instead of staying by his side? After all, in the fish’s eyes, he couldn’t even
compete with a bite of food. Therefore, he must be nothing compared to a new fish tank right?

Deliberating for a while, Jing-wang decided to go into the water personally to take a look at this
heartness carp demon. Yet just at this time, a ripple of water appeared on the water’s surface. A
fish head appeared in the middle of it. The little carp hurriedly swam over.

…… looks like this fish wasn’t so heartless after all.

Jing-wang stopped being angry. The little carp happily swam around in circles beneath his feet.
With a smile, Jing-wang bent down and rubbed its back. The little carp suddenly curled into a
circle and rolled completely into his hand.

What’s going on?

Jing-wang scooped the fish up and quickly examined it all over, afraid that the fish pond was
built too fast and there were delicate areas not properly constructed which had scratched the fish.

However, the fish looked very well, lively like a dragon or vigorous tiger, no injuries at all.

Jing-wang thought for a moment and first placed the fish back into the crystal bottle. The carp
demon was very well-behaved, without any signs of disdain for the small crystal bottle despite
coming out of the huge luxurious fish tank.

Jing-wang then brought the fish back to his room and placed it inside the fishtank in the room.
The carp demon didn’t struggle either. Jing-wang felt like this meant the carp demon still wanted
to live together with him. The tiny bit of hopelessness just now completely changed into delight.
Although the fish formed carp demon couldn’t speak and couldn’t express his thanks, Jing-wang
didn’t do any of this for the carp demon’s gratitude. If the other was willing to stay by his side,
that was enough.

Xiao Yu must be tired after this long day. Jing-wang figured it would be sleeping soon.

However, when he placed the fish back in, Xiao Yu continued to stick to the wall of the fish
tank, staring at him; or swim after him wherever he went.

Go to sleep.

Jing-wang lightly tapped the fish on the head. The well-behaved fish, however, clung to his
hand, refusing to let go.

Jing-wang could understand the carp demon most of the time, but there were times he didn’t
know what it wanted.

After a while, the fish let go by itself and laid on the white stone bed.

Jing-wang was also pretty tired and went over to lay down on his own bed. Not long afterwards,
he went to sleep. On the white stone bed, the little carp was feigning sleep and had been listening
to Jing-wang’s breathing this entire time. As soon as Jing-wang fell asleep, it jumped up and
swam over.

Although Jing-wang gave fish a super enormous fish tank, the teacups set up in the room still
remained. Jumping and hopping, Li Yu took his usual path and arrived in front of Jing-wang’s
bed.

Today, there was a red colored lotus cup next to the pillow. The little carp carefully jumped into
it.

He didn’t know how he could express his feelings of gratitude. The tyrant master really treated
fish too well. Not only did he help fish get revenge, he also made an enormous fish tank for fish.
Yet, fish couldn’t do anything for its master.
Li Yu silently looked at his master’s quiet sleeping face. After looking for a while, fish instincts
took over. He really wanted to…… nuzzle.

However, he knew that if he jumped over directly, he’d just cover Jing-wang with a face full of
water. What should he do?

It’s best to do it like cats and dogs. The little carp pursed its little fish mouth. He only needed to
nuzzle his master’s face a little and that’ll be enough.

It’s not like he never did it before anyways. Jing-wang was currently sleeping on his back. Li Yu
picked the most handsome part of Jing-wang’s profile face and went to kiss it.

Jing-wang suddenly moved. Li Yu immediately evaded. Jing-wang flipped over, turning on his
side. That most handsome part was pressed down into the pillow.

The little carp who lost its target: “…….”

Li Yu gave a devious mile. Since it’s blocked, then the nose will have to make up for it.

The little carp opened its mouth and viciously waved its fins twice. However, actions spoke
louder than words. In the end, he affectionately nudged Jing-wang’s nose, staying pressed
against the tip of Jing-wang’s nose for a brief moment.

Hehehe, nuzzled. Li Yu was in a delighted mood, happy as if he ate several peach blossom
cookies in a row.

This nose rubbing action was actually a very large deal, harder than rubbing against the face. Li
Yu leaned over on the jade pillow and needed to stretch his fish body to the best of his abilities to
reach his master’s nose. One mistake and he’d fall over.

He thought he was careful enough, but fish fins were slippery. The jade pillow was also slippery.
To support himself for a long period of time was not possible. After Li Yu finished nuzzling, his
fish fins immediately started to slip. The entire fish uncontrollably started to fall onto Jing-
wang’s face.

Ahhhhhhhh a good thing was about to become a tragedy!
Li Yu couldn’t even withdraw. In panic, he used all of his strength on his tail. When there was
about an inch away from Jing-wang’s face, his fish body suddenly stopped.

It’s more accurate to say, his fish tail stood up, like a stable base, and held up his fish body.

…… huh?

The little carp curiously looked at its tail. It actually turned hard like iron in such a crucial
moment. This should be a result of the newly changed fish scales. The strength of the new scales
were apparently very strong. He never had an opportunity to try before. Who would have thought
that he could use his tail to support his entire body.

Saved, Li Yu was just about to jump back to the fish tank. However, the sleeping Jing-wang,
who was only an inch from him, suddenly moved again and followed him.

Li Yu didn’t perceive any danger yet; a hot and soft thing already pressed against his slippery
gray fish body.

Li Yu: “……”

He was very certain he didn’t fall on Jing-wang. But Jing-wang’s lips were touching his fish’s
body.

If the other didn’t have his eyes closed, the scalding hot lips really felt like they were kissing
fish’s stomach, fish’s fins, and……

Li Yu’s iron-hard tail felt like it was burned and immediately went limp. The entire fish swayed
for a moment before he started to shakily escape out of the bed.

Fish was too flustered. Along the way, he didn’t see clearly the placement of the teacup and
unprecedentedly, failed to jump in. Instead, he landed on the ground nearby. The little carp
desperately flailed for a while before flopping back in.

Li Yu dove head-first into his water grass blanket, entire fish almost smoking.

Calm down! Master was only sleeping! There’s no special meaning! The little carp told himself
nonstop.
Meanwhile, the person on the bed has been listening to the fish’s activity this entire time. When
the carp demon finally entered the fish tank and there were no more sounds, Jing-wang raised his
hand and touched the corner of his lip.

Who let this fish refuse to absorb essence properly. Actually he woke up immediately as soon as
Xiao Yu jumped onto the bed. After waiting for so long, he became somewhat impatient and had
no choice but to take the initiative himself.

How disappointing. He escaped.

Jing-wang recalled the feeling that the fish’s body left him and slowly grinned.

The next morning, the fish and man, who each had their own ulterior motives, both felt
somewhat guilty. The soft little carp still didn’t know why he was a fish and still couldn’t find an
opportunity to change back into human. Meanwhile, the Jing Estate welcomed some uninvited
guests.

The heir of ChengEn Palace Estate has been thinking about the new fish tank inside Jing Estate
for a long time. After learning that the fish tank was finished, Ye-shizi immediately came over as
the first one to get involved and see the result. As soon as the sun rose, he came, bringing Gale
on a leash. When he entered the estate, he was immediately dumbstruck by the huge fish pond
inside.

Before Ye QingHuan had assumed from the construction around the Jing Estate that Jing-wang
was just digging a few ponds for reserve. But this was really beyond his imagination. Who would
have thought Jing-wang reconstructed his entire estate into a pond for the sake of a fish.

Although Ye-shizi felt awed, he also felt Jing-wang might have gone a bit crazy.

Because Ye QingHuan was going to converse privately with Jing-wang, he released Gale’s leash.

Gale has never seen such a huge pond before. It followed along the edge and dashed wildly,
catching sight of the little carp playing inside the pond.

Li Yu also noticed Gale. Remembering that after he switched scales, he hasn’t seen Gale yet. He
was afraid Gale wouldn’t recognize him. However, Gale didn’t bark randomly at him and the
same as before, it reached out its nose, wanting to poke fish.
Li Yu: “……”

Li Yu remembered that his fish scales were extremely powerful now and suppressed his fear.
Popping his head out of the surface of the water, he let Gale poke him lightly.

Gale who finally managed to poke the fish: !!!

Excitedly wagging its tail, Gale ran a big circle around the pond. Dogs use smell to recognize
things. Of course it recognized its little carp friend. However, running up and down on land
wasn’t entertaining enough. With a plop, Gale jumped into the water and dog-paddled to the
fish’s side.

Li Yu splashed a faceful of water at it: Coming down to swim is fine, but don’t knock over the
house that master built for me!

Good thing Gale was very obedient and really only played together with the fish, not heading
deeper into the water.

Gale wanted to have a swimming race with the fish, but the little carp clearly swam faster than it.
Very quickly, it left Gale behind.

Ye-shizi and Jing-wang both saw this scene.

Ye-shizi clicked his tongue several times. Jing-wang’s complexion was somewhat dim. He felt
Ye-shizi’s dog was really an eyesore. He was just planning to have Wang Xi drag Ye QingHuan
and his dog out.

The completely oblivious Ye QingHuan nudged Jing-wang’s arm teasingly. His eyes that were
focusing on the water in the pond also flashed from the reflection.

“Building a pond this big, aren’t you afraid you won’t be able to find it anymore?”

Jing-wang was startled. Ye QingHuan asked this out of nowhere, without any warning. It took a
while for Jing-wang to figure out what Ye-shizi was asking. Immediately, his lips curved
upwards.
Perhaps he was worried before, but now he knew that Xiao Yu definitely wouldn’t do that.

The fish and dog were just playing happily inside the pond when Jing-wang walked over. The
fish, who originally went off god knows where, immediately appeared and swiftly swam to Jing-
wang’s feet and enthusiastically waved its tail at its master. Talk about flattery.

Ye-shizi: “……”

Ye QingHuan refused to accept this. Holding a secret anticipation towards Gale, he also walked
over. However, his family’s dog was too busy looking at the surface of the water like it was a
mirror, and completely ignored him.

Ye-shizi: Enough was enough! If this continued, he was going to lose his underpants!

Ye-shizi, who visited to look at the new fish tank and ended up being flaunted at, angrily left
with Gale on its leash.

Ye QingHuan just left, the 3rd Prince, Mu TianMing, immediately arrived.

Although Mu TianMing(3) intended to win over Jing-wang’s support, he didn’t really come to
Jing estate much. Jing-wang also treated his guests very coldly. The last, last time Mu
TianMing(3) entered Jing estate was because the Emperor had ordered Jing-wang to hold a
banquet. Then the last time, it was to give the spy, Chu YanYu, to Jing-wang. However, because
he was afraid Jing-wang would refuse, he didn’t even dare to enter the door.

With this visit today, Mu TianMing(3) still had his ulterior motive. The fish Jing-wang raised.
Before Mu TianMing only looked at it as if it were entertainment. Who would have thought this
fish would grow gold scales. The Emperor personally called it an auspicious sign and this
attracted the 3rd Prince’s attention. Furthermore, the 3rd Prince was able to successfully grab
Qiu-shi’s weakness actually was all thanks to this fish’s contribution. Mu TianMing(3) was
willing to believe that the appearance of this fish was a kind of lucky omen.

Mu TianMing(3), who urgently wished to become the crown prince, naturally wanted to make
this auspicious sign his own and use this as a method to gain favor from the Emperor.

Now that his biggest contestant, the 2nd Prince, was no more; the 6th Prince was on the same
side as him and didn’t vie against him, the position of emperor would become his sooner or later.
The present was not the same as before. Jing-wang and the ChengEn Palace Estate’s assistance
was no longer as important in the 3rd Prince’s eyes. On the contrary, Mu TianMing(3) grew a
sense of caution towards Jing-wang.

He also gained a desire to take the fish. However, he wouldn’t openly come to Jing Estate and do
things that could be held against him. Instead, he decided to first try diplomacy before using
force. It was only a fish. Jing-wang shouldn’t refuse him right in the face right?

Receiving Jing-wang’s orders, Wang Xi invited the 3rd Prince into NingHui Hall where guests
were received in the Jing Estate. Mu TianMing(3) brought plenty of attendants. These attendants
carried boxes and baskets, which were all placed inside NingHui Hall. With Mu TianMing(3)’s
order, they were all opened. The boxes were filled with gold and silver.

Li Yu had an enormous fish tank now, but still liked to be carried around by Jing-wang inside the
crystal bottle. Hearing that the 3rd Prince arrived, how could Li Yu miss this opportunity to
watch the drama. He already jumped on top of the crystal bottle ahead of time and waved his
head and tail. Therefore, Jing-wang satisfied the fish. It’s not like the 3rd Prince dared to do
anything inside the Jing Estate anyways.

However, when the 3rd Prince threw open all of these boxes of gold and silver, the
impressionable little carp immediately sank to the bottom like a rock.

Li Yu swears he’s never seen so much gold and silver in his life. What was the 3rd Prince
planning to do?

Mu TianMing(3) went straight to the point and said: “5th younger brother, I came to do a trade
with you.”

“Your fish is not bad. I really like it. Is it possible for you to part with it?” Mu TianMing(3)
smiled and gestured at the boxes on the floor: “If these gold and silver are not enough, I can add
more. I’ll add until you’re satisfied, how’s that sound?”

Li Yu: !!!

Oh Fck, Mu TianMing(3) wanted to buy him from his tyrant master?

No, please don’t ah. Li Yu prayed relentlessly in his heart. Although he liked gold and silver, he
wouldn’t sell himself out. Jing-wang treated him very well; he also didn’t want to leave Jing-
wang even more.
The little carp immediately looked pitifully at Jing-wang for his reaction.

A vein bulged on Jing-wang’s forehead. Li Yu knew that this was a sign that the tyrant was
about to get angry.

After feeling nervous for a moment, the little carp immediately relaxed. Time to watch how his
master will reject this shameless 3rd Prince.

To be honest, the 3rd Prince didn’t even look at him properly before? How come he’s suddenly
eagerly attempting to buy him?

It’s definitely because the Emperor said he was an auspicious sign. That’s why the 3rd Prince
wanted to raise him. The little carp hated people who acted in hindsight the most!

After the 3rd Prince mentioned his request, Jing-wang glanced at Wang Xi with a cold face.

Wang Xi didn’t care about what 3rd Prince, 2nd Prince or whoever. He only recognized his own
prince, Jing-wang. Jing-wang wasn’t happy; Wang Xi immediately said loudly: “Don’t waste
your energy, 3rd Prince. His highness definitely won’t sell the fish.”

Mu TianMing(3) was stunned: “Does 5th brother think the price I offered was too low? How
about ten thousand gold and a hundred thousand silver?”

In actuality, Mu TianMing(3) felt somewhat hesitant. It’s just a fish. Even if it was an auspicious
sign, that was too expensive.

However, if it can help him obtain the title of crown prince as soon as possible, the price was
worth it.

Li Yu: “……”

Li Yu never thought that he’d be worth such a price. Although he disliked the 3rd Prince, he
couldn’t resist wiggling his fish body, very pleased with himself.

If looks could kill, the 3rd Prince probably would have already died a few thousand times.
Wang Xi glanced at Jing-wang’s darkened face and said: “It’s not a matter of price. This fish is
his highness’s precious darling. Even if you bring a million gold and a ten million silver, his
highness still won’t sell.”

Li Yu: !!!

Li Yu was super touched. So in the tyrant master’s eyes, even a million gold was not even to
exchange for him?

The little carp instantly understood the deep meaning behind the ‘A Million Pet Fish” Mission.

Jing-wang definitely wouldn’t give face to someone who attempted to dig his corner. He ordered
Wang Xi to throw out the 3rd Prince, as well as the 3rd Prince’s gold and silver. Mu
TianMing(3) never imagined Jing-wang would treat him like this and left with a malicious face.

The annoying 3rd Prince finally left!

Li Yu happily wagged his tail towards his master, wanting Jing-wang to put him back inside the
big pond to play. However, Jing-wang deliberately turned his head to the other side, not looking
at him.

Li Yu: ???

The little carp didn’t know what his master was silently fuming about or why his master was
suddenly annoyed with him. He can only flatteringly wag wag wag his tail……

Jing-wang originally planned to remain stone-hearted for once, but the little carp was too good at
playing cute. Jing-wang finally couldn’t resist grabbing this flattering fish over and stroked the
fish until it trembled nonstop.

The way this carp demon actually forgot to swim upon seeing the 3rd Prince’s gold and silver
was really too outrageous!
In his anger, Jing-wang ordered the artisans to make the white stone bed that the little carp
usually slept on into a polished round, silver stone. The water grass blanket was also changed
into a water grass handkerchief weaved with gold silk.

Li Yu, who suddenly discovered that his bed and blanket had become shiny gold overnight: !!!

Ao! Master! Fish really loves you to death!

The carp demon yelled internally, hugging the blankets, refusing to let go, and rolled around
back and forth on the bed!
