Chapter 65: Worried but Dare Not Admit
Several people slowly retreated and followed Mantuo into a house.
Shaohua thought that it was best for her to show up now, as she couldn't let Mantuo see Chen Yu and the others.
"I'll go alone." Shaohua whispered in Jiang Yi's ear.
But Jiang Yi was worried, after all, he didn't know what Mantuo's current situation was.
The rattlesnake was right there, and Mantuo was willing to contribute his magic power to him. He was really being controlled, which was why he acted like that.
"It's fine."
Shaohua patted Jiang Yi on the shoulder and walked to Mantuo's door.
The others were waiting here, and they were also worried about Shaohua, so they didn't leave.
When Shaohua walked to the door, before he could knock, the door suddenly opened by itself. Mantuo walked out. When she saw Shaohua, her eyes lit up and she quickly brought Shaohua into the house.
If Shaohua and Mantuo were in the room, they didn't know what would happen.
Jiang Yi also wanted to know what the situation was like inside the house and whether Mantuo would hurt Shaohua.
“Master Shen, this Miss Mantuo wouldn’t really do anything to the princess, right?”
Jiang Yi was unsure, so he could only look at Chen Yu and ask him how he was.
Chen Yu glanced at Jiang Yi and said, "When Miss Mantuo brought the princess in, there was a smile in her eyes, so the princess will be fine."
That's good.
Jiang Yi breathed a sigh of relief.
As long as Shaohua is safe, there is still hope.
"I should have known better than to let the princess go alone."
Xu Yuan, who originally only bickered with Shao Hua, now began to get worried.
"Mr. Xu, are you worried about the princess?" Jiang Yi looked at Xu Yuan with curiosity.
After hearing Jiang Yi's words, Xu Yuan quickly denied his thoughts.
"Miss Liuli, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't say anything you want. Will I worry about her?"
After making the wish, he smiled disdainfully.
In fact, Jiang Yi knew clearly that Xu Yuan was just being stubborn and didn't want to admit it.
Bai Zhuo was also laughing secretly. In fact, he had already seen it a long time ago. Everyone understood it tacitly and did not say anything.
Xuyuan coughed awkwardly and pointed at the door.
"Look over there, don't look at me." After Xu Yuan said this, he quickly shifted his gaze away.
The others also looked over and stared at that place, wanting to know what happened to Shaohua and Mantuo.
inside the house.
Mantuo was also very surprised to see Shaohua coming.
But I'm still a little scared.
After all, there are monsters everywhere in this cave, and you will easily discover them if you are not careful.
"Why is the princess here?" Mantuo grabbed Shaohua's hand and asked anxiously.
"I came to find you, Sister Mantuo. I don't want you to go out and harm those innocent children again. Besides, this thousand-year-old snake demon will absorb your demonic power. Why should we help him?"
Shaohua wanted Mantuo to leave and also wanted to persuade her.
When Mantuo heard Shaohua's words, she smiled coldly and felt helpless.
"Princess, I had to help her."
"Why?" Shaohua was puzzled.
Mantuo directly revealed what was on his sleeve, which was a rattlesnake mark.
"This is……"
Shaohua looked at Mantuo, not understanding the use of this thing.
"Any demon he captures bears this mark, and is controlled by his venom. If we disobey, he'll know, and he'll inflict heart-wrenching pain on us. I fell for his scheme out of hatred, but now it's too late. Princess, please don't come again. I'm afraid he'll find you, capture you, and control you. If he does, the demon world will be doomed."
Mantuo suddenly thought of this and decided to find a way to send Shaohua away.
Unexpectedly, Shaohua was indifferent and now had no intention of leaving.
"Princess, what's going on?" Mantuo asked in confusion, seeing that Shaohua was reluctant to leave.
"Sister Mantuo, you have taken care of me since I was a child. I didn't know that you were harmed by an unfaithful man and had to endure all this pain by yourself. But now that I have found you, I will bring you back to the demon world. What's more, there are treasures from the demon world on that rattlesnake. I must take them away before I can go back and report." Shaohua looked at Mantuo and smiled slightly.
