At first, it thought it was because it had found Jun Feijue and was too excited.
Who knew, this thing jumped right into a group of skeleton soldiers, almost scaring it to death.
Fortunately, these skeleton soldiers were a match for the little zombie, and it seemed that the flames were quite to his liking.
It sighed, threw away the two handfuls of hair it had just plucked from Shi Wuxie's head, grabbed two more handfuls, and resignedly lay down on its head without saying a word.
Eh…
Zero, where are you?!
Your little zombie has gone mad with food; even one fox can't hold it back!!
The secret palace, the main palace.
Meanwhile, Di Moyu cautiously followed behind Shen Xiong and his group, stopping at the palace entrance to observe the situation inside.
In the center of the large hall, a black carpet stretched all the way down to the stone steps in front.
The stone steps, like the body of a snake, meander and spiral, leading straight up to the second floor.
On either side of the carpet, in the front row were skeleton cavalrymen leading bone beasts and holding spears, while in the back row were skeleton guards holding swords, numbering in the thousands.
Seeing this, the woman with her head down became even more frightened. She hugged the little girl tightly in her arms, and although her body was trembling, she did not forget to cover the little girl's eyes with her hands.
As for Aunt Wu, she was no longer as relaxed as before, and her eyes were filled with vigilance.
"Click, click..."
Upon seeing Shen Xiong and his group approach, the previously silent skeleton soldiers suddenly had two black flames blazing in their eyes, and they simultaneously extended their long hair and swords to block their path.
"ah!"
Upon seeing this, Aunt Wu screamed in fright and immediately grabbed Shen Xiong's arm.
Only then did she realize that Shen Xiong's body, which had originally been full of masculine warmth, had become chilled all over, making her shiver involuntarily.
"roar…"
Afterwards, she was horrified to discover that two black flames, just like those in the skeleton soldiers' eyes, had appeared in Shen Xiong's eyes, and his voice had become hoarse and indistinct, unlike that of a human.
But it was this sound that made all the skeletons withdraw their attacks and return to their original forms.
"Scared?"
At this moment, the black flames in Shen Xiong's eyes subsided slightly, and he lowered his head to look at Aunt Wu, whose face was deathly pale.
"No...no, with the general here, I'm not afraid at all."
Aunt Wu's expression flickered, but she dared not loosen her grip on Shen Xiong's hand for even a moment.
"Hehe, that's why this general likes you."
Upon hearing this, Shen Xiong smiled enigmatically, patted Aunt Wu's hand, and took the lead in stepping onto the stone steps.
The accompanying soldiers, though fearful, dared not slacken and quickly followed.
They knew this general's personality very well; he would kill someone at the slightest provocation.
"Senior Brother, what should we do?"
Seeing the heavy security, Ji Fanya asked Di Moyu in a low voice.
Are you scared?
Di Moyu did not answer, but instead asked a question.
"I'm not afraid."
Ji Fanya shook his head very seriously.
"Then let's go."
Upon hearing this, Di Moyu nodded slightly, confirming that Shen Xiong and his group had disappeared at the stairwell, and then pulled him onto Xiao Bo's back.
He said in a deep voice, "Break through."
"Splash..."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Bo flapped its wings without saying a word and rushed towards the stone staircase to the second floor at top speed.
Although it was only the first floor of the palace, it was built very high. Xiao Bo flew more than a meter above the heads of the skeleton soldiers and landed on the stone steps without any trouble.
