Cultivators cannot make oaths casually; they must keep their oaths, or they will be punished by the Heavenly Dao.

Cao Jinchang clearly doesn't understand this.

But Ji Fengyao couldn't explain these things to him at this time. She believed that even if Cao Jinchang knew that oaths should not be made lightly, he would still make such a heavenly oath to himself.

Ji Fengyao had Bai Lu help Cao Jinchang, and the group quickly left.

The burly men who were frozen in place looked aggrieved:

Ladies, when will we be freed from this immobilization?

We dare not ask, we dare not say...

Cao Jinchang took Ji Fengyao and Bai Lu for a walk around the new city and bought some things.

The area where the Canal Gang is located is definitely being watched by the Black Purgatory people. They can't make large-scale purchases as originally planned, then have the shops deliver them to the Canal Gang's location and store them in storage rings.

The three did not stay overnight in the new city, but instead left the city.

Return to the forest and find the monster they rode out of.

Ji Fengyao knew that Cao Jinchang was suffering, so she asked, "Uncle Cao, what are you planning to do next?"

Cao Jinchang's fat twitched twice, and a deep sorrow and hatred flashed in his eyes. He choked and gritted his teeth: "Of course I want revenge, but I know that now is not the time for revenge... I, I cannot ruin Your Highness and the Ninth Prince's grand plan for my own selfish reasons."

"The prince and I also have our moments of frustration, but as long as there is even the slightest chance, we will do everything we can to take revenge and never tolerate it," Ji Fengyao said in a deep voice, her small hand clenched into a fist.

Cao Jinchang was slightly taken aback, somewhat confused: "Ninth Princess Consort, what do you mean?"

"We can't wipe out Black Hell right now, but with our current strength, killing those mad dogs who killed your Cao family members is more than enough!"

The summer sun was blazing, but the evening breeze in the woods carried a touch of coolness.

A gentle breeze caressed the young female bandit's pretty and lovely face, blowing the strands of hair on her cheeks and forehead, making her look exceptionally lively and beautiful, while her resolute eyes and firm words exuded a particularly domineering aura!

Cao Jinchang found it hard to believe.

For most of the day, hatred gnawed at his heart, making him feel like a walking corpse!

Every cell in his body was constantly screaming:

Kill those beasts!

He believed that with his strength, he would have to fight until he died to take revenge!

Unexpectedly...

"If possible, I, Cao, would be eternally grateful and willing to serve the Princess and the Ninth Prince like a slave for the rest of my life." Cao Jinchang knelt heavily before Ji Fengyao, his knees bent. "But I must remind the Princess that with such a grand plan at hand, please think twice before you act!"

Bai Lu, understanding Ji Fengyao's situation, quickly stepped forward to help Cao Jinchang up: "Oh dear, Elder Cao, you don't need to do this. Our Princess Consort isn't that impulsive. If the Princess Consort says it's okay, then it definitely will be okay."

“Yes, killing a few dogs is nothing to worry about,” Ji Fengyao nodded, then added, “There’s just one thing: we need to make our move only after we’ve procured all the supplies. That way, after we’ve slaughtered the dogs, we can quickly retreat back into the depths of Mangshan and leave no trace.”

Upon hearing this, Cao Jinchang's eyes finally lit up with joy. He said, "That's easy. Yongcheng is the headquarters of my Canal Gang, and all of our accumulated wealth over the years is stored there. The grain and supplies are readily available. After we kill those beasts, we can just take them. If we don't take them, it will only benefit the other beasts in Black Purgatory, and my entire Cao family will die with regrets!"

“Okay, then we’ll set off after dark,” Ji Fengyao nodded.
