"Ke'er, we're saving people, what are you saying?"
Guang Wenxu looked at Jun Wuyou with a troubled expression, then said to Ke'er, "If you are unwilling to help this young lady, our destination will inevitably pass through the Demon Sealing Battlefield first. Aren't you going to meet the legendary Lord and his disciples? You should go to the city gate and wait for me. I will be there shortly."
"Senior Brother, what do you mean by that? How could we possibly abandon you and leave first?"
Upon hearing this, Ke'er immediately felt even more aggrieved, but at the same time, she softened her stance, "Senior Brother, she's already here, what more do you want?"
"Some people just let the fire burn out naturally; otherwise, why would we have bothered to rescue them in the first place?"
Seeing that Ke'er had stopped making a fuss, Guang Wenxu breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Jun Wuyou, saying, "Miss, don't worry. We have already given your pet some medicine, so its injuries should heal quickly."
"Giving such good medicine to a mongrel is such a waste," Ke'er muttered in dissatisfaction upon hearing this.
Knowing that Ke'er was in a bad mood, Guang Wenxu pretended not to hear it.
"What's the full name of that 'Lord' you just mentioned?"
After confirming that Shi Wuxie's injuries were slowly recovering, Jun Wuyou looked at Guang Wenxu and asked, "Is his name Jun Feijue?"
"I didn't expect you, a country bumpkin, to know so much. Are you really new here?"
Ke'er looked at Jun Wuyou with a mocking expression and said, "Don't tell us later that you also want to go see the Duke and then try to cling to us."
"It seems it really is..."
Although Ke'er's words were unpleasant, Jun Wuyou got the information she wanted, and a surge of joy welled up in her heart. However, she tried her best to suppress it and continued to ask, "Is the Duke in the city gate right now? What is her position?"
"this…"
"I'm saying, are you really unaware or are you pretending not to know?"
Guang Wenxu didn't answer, but Ke'er said with a suspicious look, "In this world, who doesn't know the name of Lord Jue and his entourage? You don't even know what her position is. How did you even hear about Lord Jue's name? I think you're a spy!"
Compared to Ke'er's confrontational approach, Guang Wenxu was clearly more thoughtful. A girl who seemed to come from the mortal realm knew Jun Feijue's name but was unaware of her achievements.
Taking all these factors into account, only one possibility seems most likely: he remembered that Jun Feijue also seemed to have come from the mortal realm.
Could it be that this girl has some kind of relationship with the lord?
Thinking of this possibility, Guang Wenxu couldn't help but gasp. If he was right, then this girl's background was not simple, and Ke'er's actions were simply courting death.
"Alright, Ke'er, if you continue to act so unreasonably, I will have them take you away immediately."
Whether or not it was as he suspected, at least the girl in front of him was someone he didn't want to hurt, and he didn't want Ke'er to continue targeting her like this. It would be best if everyone could get along peacefully.
"Senior Brother, you really have changed!"
This time, Ke'er was truly hurt. Tears welled up in her eyes, but she didn't say anything more, keeping her head down and hiding behind the other disciples in silence.
"Young lady, what is your relationship with the Duke? Why are you asking about her?"
Ke'er finally quieted down, and Guang Wenxu then turned to look at Jun Wuyou.
