****, Vulture's Courtyard.

Yan Hanxing originally thought that with his cultivation level, the little bandit girl would take him with her wherever she went.

But when she went to Dongdan Shuiyue that day, she still only brought Bai Yusheng with her.

He stood behind the window of his room and saw the little bandit and Bai Yusheng returning one after the other through the crack in the window. A thousand dark currents suddenly surged in his eyes, and his icy gaze seemed to pierce through Bai Yusheng.

Bai Yusheng felt as if he were being stared at by an invincible ferocious beast, his hair stood on end, and he subconsciously shivered.

"Miss, I have a bad feeling," Bai Yusheng said tremblingly through telepathy, "I feel like my life is in danger."

"Smack!"

No sooner had Bai Yusheng finished speaking than Ji Fengyao turned around and slapped him across the face.

The crisp, loud sound stunned most of the people in the courtyard.

Yan Hanxing: "...?"

Bai Yusheng: "...?"

"Useless thing! You've been by my side for so long, and you can't even read the room. Did I expect you to treat Dongdan Shuiyue like a mistress, living a life of luxury? I could easily give her a couple of acupuncture needles and she'd be better off than a dog. Are you trying to get her back quickly so you can climb the social ladder? Don't forget you promised me ten years of servitude!" Ji Fengyao said, hands on her hips, her words dripping with righteous indignation.

Bai Yusheng covered her face: "..."

What is all this nonsense? He can't understand a single word the young lady is saying.

"What are you standing there for? If you want to live, beg for mercy!" Ji Fengyao glared at her, looking fierce, and secretly sent a telepathic warning.

Bai Yusheng then realized what had happened, bent his knees and knelt down on one knee, saying, "Your subordinate knows his mistake. Your subordinate will immediately give orders to have the people over there take good care of Dongdan Shuiyue."

"No need. If you go now, wouldn't that be clearly telling her that I ordered you all to do it?" Ji Fengyao put her hands on her hips, cutely stomped her feet, and scolded, "Hmph, you pig-brain!"

Then, with an air of arrogance, she turned and went back to her room.

Behind the window, Yan Hanxing's lips curved slightly, and the frost in her eyes turned into a smile.

Bai Yusheng felt a burning sensation on her face, but the chilling feeling that had been emanating from her body had disappeared.

He couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, thinking to himself:

Miss has truly brought back a fearsome demon this time.

I need to remind my sister again that she absolutely must not go near that evil spirit unless necessary!

Bai Yusu heard someone being beaten outside and ran out to find Bai Yusheng there. Her face was full of disbelief: "Brother, what happened?"

"It was my fault for not doing a good job for Miss. It's alright, I've learned my lesson," Bai Yusheng said dutifully.

After saying that, he couldn't help but glance at Yan Hanxing's residence out of the corner of his eye.

He knew that although Yan Hanxing's murderous intent towards him had disappeared, she was still observing him from the shadows.

Therefore, he cannot let his guard down yet.

Bai Yusu, unaware of the truth, felt heartbroken upon hearing Bai Yusheng's words: "She shouldn't hit you. We were the first people to follow her. Even if she has recruited more and more experts now, she shouldn't be so ungrateful."

"Yu Su!" Bai Yusheng was truly enraged by Bai Yu Su's rude words: "You are not allowed to talk about Miss like that!"

"Brother!" Bai Yusu pouted and glared at Bai Yusheng, her eyes filled with grievance.

She was really worried about him!

Why was he so ungrateful, even yelling at her and siding with outsiders?
