"Go back to the bamboo forest! If you dare cause trouble again, I'll have Jiuling beat you to death!"
Yue Jiuli angrily dragged Yue Jiuyue and Yue Jiuxing away from the temple. The Earth Goddess breathed a sigh of relief after seeing them leave; she didn't know what she would have done if Yue Jiuli hadn't come and taken them away.
Back in the bamboo forest, Yue Jiuli pointed at the two divided souls and said, "What's wrong with you two? Why did you go over there for no reason? And to make matters worse, you wanted to scrape off some damn gold powder. I think you're asking for trouble, wanting Jiuling to skin you alive!"
Yue Jiuyue and Yue Jiuxing obediently endured the scolding without retaliating, fearing that Yue Jiuli would complain to Yue Jiuling. If Yue Jiuling found out, they would definitely be beaten, so they simply listened and accepted the scolding.
"Hey, Jiuli, don't be angry. We know we were wrong, and I didn't scrape off the gold dust, did I? Please don't tell Jiuling, okay?"
Yue Jiuxing begged for mercy from Yue Jiuli, and she even pretended to be pitiful, saying, "People get bored in the temple too~ There's nothing to do in this bamboo forest, can't we even go for a stroll?"
"Exactly, exactly, and we haven't made things too serious yet~ So please don't tell Jiuling~"
Even Yue Jiuyue came over to beg for mercy.
"Hehe~ It's not a big deal. If I hadn't arrived in time, you would have scratched the statue. What? You think I'm blind? I saw it all!"
Yue Jiuli stood with her hands on her hips, staring at the two split souls. She said, "And what's wrong with you two? You had nothing better to do than help me when I was fighting with someone. You even ran away. Tell me, is that okay?"
When the conversation turned to what had just happened, Yue Jiuyue and Yue Jiuxing remembered that a battle had indeed taken place in the bamboo forest. However, since they felt that no one could defeat Yue Jiuli, they did not go to help and instead went to the temple.
Yue Jiuyue realized she hadn't handled things well, and she chuckled, saying, "Hehe~ Well, we thought you definitely wouldn't lose, so we ran away~"
"Yeah, and watching you guys fight is so boring, we're not really interested either~"
Yue Jiuxing added ingratiatingly, "Besides, you're definitely going to win. Our presence here might even affect your performance."
"Oh? It won't affect me~ No, I think it's you guys running away that will distract me~"
Yue Jiuli still looked at them with displeasure: "As soon as you leave, I will go to find you, which will make me more distracted. Fortunately, I did not lose this time, otherwise you would be in trouble. I would definitely tell Jiuling."
"No, no! Jiuli, we were wrong, we won't do it again!"
Yue Jiuyue quickly begged for mercy again, and Yue Jiuxing even grabbed Yue Jiuli's arm, saying, "Please~ Don't tell Jiuling~ Please~ Waaaaah~"
"Tsk~ Shut up! You two are so annoying, get lost~"
Seeing that both of her split souls were starting to act cute, Yue Jiuli had no choice but to give up. However, she ultimately didn't call Yue Jiuling, which meant she had temporarily forgiven them.
"This is a one-time exception. I'm telling you, if there's a next time, I'll have Jiuling beat you all to death. You're so annoying!"
Okay, we understand.
Seeing that the crisis was over, Yue Jiuyue and Yue Jiuxing were naturally delighted.
The Demon Realm, Border City.
"Quickly! Go and stop them!"
"Damn it! General, where is the general? Go tell the general that the wolves are charging!"
"Kill! Kill them all!"
At midnight, a battle broke out at the city gate of the border town, where the wolf clan entering the town clashed with the army brought by General Lynx!
"Qiyou, Rourou? Where did you go?"
Yue Jiu Nian mingled with the army and charged straight at Tan Lang's troops, but as she fought, she suddenly discovered that Qi You and Rou Rou had disappeared.
"Where is the general? Where is your general?"
After discovering that two people were missing, Yue Jiu Nian didn't pay much attention at first, but when she arrived at the caravan, she still couldn't see them, so she started looking for them.
Yue Jiu Nian was surrounded by soldiers from the demon realm. They were all quite powerful, and this time they launched a surprise attack on the convoy, catching the front part of the convoy off guard and unable to defend themselves. A large portion of them were killed.
However, such a record still didn't make Yue Jiu Nian happy, because Qi You and Rou Rou were both missing, and the Lynx General was nowhere to be found. In addition, Tan Lang and the Double-Headed Water Dragon had not appeared, which made her somewhat worried.
"Miss Yue!"
Suddenly, a familiar voice came from behind Yue Jiu Nian. It was General Lynx.
After calling out to Yue Jiu Nian, General Lynx waved to her, signaling her to come over.
"What happened? Where did you all go?"
Yue Jiu Nian walked up to General Lynx and asked.
"Miss Yue, Qi You is in trouble. Come with me this way~"
"What? What happened to Qiyou? What's wrong?"
Upon hearing that Qi You was in trouble, Yue Jiu Nian immediately became anxious. She asked worriedly, "What happened? Wasn't he supposed to go ahead to assassinate Tan Lang? And what about Rou Rou? Why is she missing too?"
General Lynx's expression wasn't good either. He frowned and said, "Rou Rou is here too. Chief Qi You is injured, and she's taking care of him."
"How...how did it end up like this?"
