"kindness?"
Upon hearing this, Bai Lisiyu raised his head in confusion.
When she saw that it was a fox that was speaking, she froze instantly.
A spirit...a spirit beast!
If I remember correctly, Jun Feijue already had a crow-like spirit beast by his side before, so how come there's another one now?!
Are spirit beasts really that worthless now?!
"Hey, don't you have any brothers or sisters named Baili Shouyue?"
Chunhu Siqiong didn't notice the other party's surprise, and just asked with a smile.
Bai Lisiyu: "???"
Who is Baili Shouyue?
How come she doesn't remember this?!
"Then, what about Baili Xuance?"
Seeing her expression, Chunhu Siqiong knew the answer and asked again, unwilling to give up.
"No...no, there isn't one either..."
Bai Lisiyu shook his head in confusion. What was going on? Had someone in the family offended this spirit beast?
Thinking of this, Bai Lisiyu's expression changed. She had already offended the Duke, and now she had even offended her spirit beast. She was doomed!
"Hmm, no, this fox spirit just thinks these two names are quite nice."
Upon hearing this, Chunhu Siqiong stretched in disappointment, then waved her paw and said to Di Moyu with little interest, "Little brother of the Di family, everything is fine now. You can kill or torture me as you please."
Bairis Yu: "..."
What the hell do you mean, kill or torture him?!
They haven't even said they're going to make a move yet, okay?
Furthermore, why not just give us a quick and easy solution?
You gave me hope and then immediately banned me. Do you realize how cruel that is?
"Never mind, we're even now."
At this moment, Jun Feijue, who had been silent until now, finally spoke softly and reached out to touch the top of Di Moyu's head in a gesture of reassurance.
Back then, Bai Lisiyu was also nearly killed by lightning, but the weapons of her personal guards were still kept. In fact, she still made a small profit.
Bairis Yu: "..."
Damn it, if she hadn't mentioned it, she would have completely forgotten that she had paid for all the magical artifacts for her subordinates herself!
Even now, my heart is still bleeding.
"We're even now, how about that?"
Feeling the softness and warmth from above, Di Moyu's anger subsided instantly; however, his gaze toward Bai Lisiyu remained unfriendly.
He naturally saw through the other party's current attitude. Although he didn't know why the Empress was being so polite to them, he understood that they were the ones initiating the conflict. Since that was the case, it would be best to take this opportunity to resolve any grudges.
Although Jun Feijue did not want to pursue the matter, it did not mean that he could tolerate Jun Feijue being wronged.
"Ahem, Young Master Di, this is actually just a misunderstanding..."
Upon seeing this, the head of the guards quickly stepped forward to explain, "It's just that the lord accidentally fell into the men's prison and stole... um..."
"Furthermore, I accidentally picked up the three mid-grade mystic stones used to set up the formation."
Just as the upright leader of the secret guards was about to speak the truth, Bai Lisiyu suddenly covered his mouth and said with a forced smile, "Then my men, unaware of the truth, wrongly accused the Duke, which led to some minor friction. Her Majesty the Empress also feels deeply sorry, so she will not ask for the three mid-grade Xuan Stones back, as an apology."
The Twelve Dark Guards: "...?"
Why is this completely different from the version they heard?
As a high-ranking general, is it really okay for you to lie through your teeth like this?
"Is that so?"
Upon hearing this, Di Moyu finally calmed down and toned down his imposing manner.
