"Boss, what do we do now?"
After boarding the strange fairy ship of the cat demon clan, Hu Heli asked somewhat uneasily.
She felt a little relieved when she saw that Yan Quan remained calm and composed.
"It's alright... everything is going according to plan."
Yan Quan replied calmly, then looked up and saw that Hua Keshu had already run into a few old guys.
"Keshu, you are a candidate for the throne, how can you be so reckless!"
"If we hadn't arrived in time, and the enemy's reinforcements hadn't come, and something had happened to you, our clan..."
"Oh, okay, okay, I know. I had this planned all along. Didn't we get the evidence of the attack?"
Hua Keshu showed the small ball in her hand, then bypassed several cat demon elders and walked straight into her main room.
"That guy named Chu Quan is my newly recruited advisor, and that fox next to him is his subordinate. No need to be on guard anymore, go back to your positions."
"Let's go to Shuitian City..."
She spoke with feigned seriousness, while the elders beside her looked at Yan Quan and his companion with even more curiosity.
However, considering that the two of them had protected Hua Keshu during the recent battle, they were not deliberately made things difficult for them.
Yan Quan looked at the scattered guards and said nothing. Instead, he silently walked to the side, sat down, and quietly watched the scenery of flowing clouds and light in the sky.
"Have a seat, we'll just consider it a ride."
Yan Quan crossed his arms and said that at least Hua Keshu had to pretend to be serious in front of these people. Although her treatment wouldn't be very good, this was exactly what she had always hoped for.
Focus on your work and don't let yourself be constantly disturbed.
"Ahem, fellow Daoist, the sword formation you used to slay the wolf clan's undead servants... I feel like I've seen it before. May I ask where you're from?"
After Hua Keshu and the elders entered the main room, a tall captain of the guard walked up to Yan Quan and asked him a question.
"Where have you seen this kind of sword formation before?"
Yan Quan and Hu Heli were sitting at the bow of the boat when they saw the young cat demon guard and immediately responded to him.
After all, he was now somewhat dependent on others. This guy had become the captain of the guard at such a young age, so he must be a very capable nobleman within the cat clan.
"On the border between the human and demon realms, the sword formation there was far more powerful than yours, but I can tell that both sword formations were created by the same person."
By the way, I am Maowu, son of the city lord of Maoyuan City in the cat clan region. You are actually the lord's newly recruited advisor, so naturally I need to know about your identity.
May I ask where you two are from?
The young and handsome cat-like guard had his weapon removed and sat down opposite Yan Quan.
"Um... My name is Chu Quan, I come from Tianyu Continent, and I am an old friend of your Miss Hua. I have been invited to offer her advice."
It's truly rare to see someone of your noble birth exhibiting such a lack of affectation.
"Fellow Daoist Chu, you flatter me..."
"Since he's an old friend of our lord, then I have nothing more to ask. And you, fellow fox clan member beside me, don't you know that your fox clan and we are now competitors?"
"Of course I know. I'm following the boss, not you. If you do anything detrimental to my fox clan..."
Hu Heli's eyes turned cold as she gently stroked the hilt of her sword.
"Yes, I'm the only one who's considered Miss Hua's temporary advisor. She isn't. Don't worry, I'm doing my job to the best of my ability... You don't need to worry."
Ah... I'm getting tired again. Take me to an empty room, it's fine for the two of us. If there aren't enough rooms, a storage room will do too.
Yan Quan stretched and said that he didn't know why, but he often felt tired since returning to the main world.
The level of rest they need is almost on par with that of an ordinary mortal...
"Hmm... there is a spare room. You two can go there to rest. We can talk again after you've rested."
Maowu said enthusiastically, seemingly eager to have a good chat with Yan Quan, his new advisor, about how to make Hua Keshu the Demon Emperor.
However, he was clearly much more relaxed than before.
"Haha, I didn't expect the two of you to have this kind of relationship. It seems I was overthinking it. Come with me."
Maowu laughed. He was initially a little afraid that Yan Quan was after his beautiful master, but he didn't expect that he and this fox were a couple.
That puts my mind at ease. After all, how could I let a mere human deceive the lord I swore to protect with my life?
"……Um."
Yan Quan was a little confused, but he just wanted to rest, so he didn't pay any attention to what Mao Wu meant.
Hu Heli, standing to the side, didn't care about such things at all. When she and Yan Quan slept in the open before, their sleeping conditions were far worse than those in the storage room, so what was there to complain about?
A quarter of an hour later, Maowu returned to the bow of the ship with satisfaction. He had already arranged for Yan Quan and the other man to stay in a small room. Anyone with eyes could see that these two were not simple people. It was truly a good thing that the master had accepted them.
"Maowu... cough cough, where is Chu Quan?"
