"I dare not."
Ye Xing lowered his head, his expression unchanged.
"Don't dare? Then make arrangements quickly."
A fierce look flashed in Su Yimo's eyes. This time she must bring Ji Yunshen back so that His Majesty can restore her appearance.
As long as she can get the approval of the Demon Palace Master, it would not be impossible for her to replace her father and become the leader of the Qingyun Sword Sect.
"Master Ye, Miss Su is so stubborn and will probably suffer a great loss."
The people accompanying them were busy with their own things, some casting spells and using magic tools to build barriers, and some making fires and boiling water.
When Ye Xing was checking the situation around him, a younger secret guard said helplessly while holding the teapot in his hand.
They have been here for many days, and the water stored in the space ring is very little, but Su Yimo does not care about the lives of others.
Not only did she instruct them to heat the water and put it into the magical instrument where she lived alone, she also asked someone to make tea, which was the perfect display of her precious status as a young lady.
"Xiao Ba, don't say anything more. Just do everything according to the lady's instructions."
Although Ye Xing agreed in his heart, he forced himself to control his temper when he thought of Su Yimo holding the antidote for their brothers.
"But Lord Ye, we don't have much water left. Brothers can skip meals, but we can't skimp on water.
The poisonous miasma ahead is so severe, I don’t know when I can find drinkable water.”
"Master Ye, I don't think the brothers would consider dying of thirst as a cowardly thing as dying of poison. We have been with her through thick and thin, yet she has chosen us to protect her from danger.
Now, they are depriving us of our water resources so that she can bathe there. This is simply outrageous.”
Xiao Ba is young and can't keep things secret, so he usually walks around at night the most.
This was his first time to go out on a mission. He was shocked to see the elder brother, whom he admired the most, groveling in front of Su Yimo. Was the man in front of him still the most outstanding one among the secret guards?
"Go boil some water and make some tea. I'll talk to her about the bath."
When Ye Xing looked at Xiao Ba's still childish face, he secretly wondered why they were of the same age but had completely opposite destinies.
He patted Xiao Ba's shoulder gently, and then walked towards Su Yimo's residence without looking back.
It's no wonder that Xiao Ba and the others felt aggrieved. When Su Yimo set out, he ordered the people accompanying him to bring a large amount of supplies, as the supplies here were originally stolen.
But because of her wrong command, not only did many people die, but a large number of items and elixirs were also lost.
When she was in the wild, she used magic tools to build a house every day as usual, and asked four female secret guards to take turns inputting spiritual power into the magic tools so that she could sleep peacefully.
In addition, her daily dining and bathing habits remained the same as when she was in Qingyun Sword Sect. Once someone was slow or did not listen to her, she would beat or scold them, or punish them with evil intentions.
Xiao Ba stood quietly there, watching Ye Xing slowly walk towards a magic weapon not far away.
The expression on his face was changing unclearly. He glanced at the exquisite teapot in his hand, and an idea inexplicably came to his mind.
What is the meaning of living such a humble life?
Just like a dog, even if you kneel on the ground and offer your true heart, others won't even look at you.
.....
Boom boom boom...
There was a dull knock on the door, and Su Yimo frowned in displeasure.
"who?"
"Master, I am the night traveler."
Ye Xing's voice was hoarse, but he was still very respectful when he spoke.
"What's going on so late at night? Are the surrounding security barriers set up?"
Su Yimo's impatient voice came from inside the door.
"My Lord, everything has been arranged."
Ye Xing sighed softly and responded.
"Everything has been arranged, so why are you still standing at my door? Do you want to die?"
Sensing that Ye Xing's breath was still there, Su Yimo's face suddenly turned bad and his voice couldn't help but become louder.
"I have another favor to ask, Master, please..."
"Haha, you've only been out for a few days, and you already dare to ask me to do something?
What? Are you worried that my cultivation level is too low and I can't control the poison in your bodies?"
Without waiting for Ye Xing to finish his words, Su Yimo spoke immediately. Her sarcastic tone immediately made the people around her unhappy.
“That’s not the case, Master. It’s just that we’ve been out for a long time and the water we brought with us is running out.
If we want to bathe every day, I am afraid that it will be difficult for the brothers to even drink a sip of water. After all, the current situation is difficult. Miss..."
Ye Xing paused, noticing a slight change in the aura of Xiao Ba and the others, and then continued speaking.
"What? You still want me to think about you lowly people? There wasn't enough water, so what did you do when you came out?
If there is no water, why don’t you take people to look for it?”
When Su Yimo heard that Ye Xing wanted to withhold her bath water, she immediately became angry.
In her eyes, Ye Xing and others are just dogs she raised. Which owner would consider the situation of a dog?
"Master, this place is dangerous. If we go to find water, I'm afraid you will be in danger too."
With a bang, the door was kicked open by Su Yimo.
The days of traveling and the surprise attacks were too much for even a spoiled young lady like her.
She was already full of complaints, and now even the usually obedient Ye Xing dared to be so disrespectful in front of her, which made her immediately angry.
When the door was kicked open, it was wrapped in Su Yimo's spiritual power and hit Ye Xing, causing him to groan involuntarily due to the pain.
When the busy people saw this scene, they stopped what they were doing and went to check Ye Xing's injuries.
"Master Ye, are you okay?"
Xiao Ba was the saddest. He threw away the teapot in his hand and ran over in a hurry.
“No problem…”
Ye Xing's face was a little pale. He could have avoided the flying door, but he couldn't. If he did, it would only make Su Yimo even more angry.
"You...what are you all doing surrounding him? Who is your master?"
Su Yimo's face was full of anger. When she saw them all surrounding Ye Xing, she was so angry that her dissatisfaction showed on her face.
But at this moment, everyone seemed not to have heard anything and continued to surround Ye Xing without making any move.
"Sorry, Master, I'll have them go back to work now."
Su Yimo yelled around, but no one paid any attention to her, and her mood instantly turned bad.
Seeing this, Ye Xing quickly stood up and knelt respectfully on the ground to express his attitude.
There was no way out. His life and the lives of his brothers were in her hands.
"Hmph, it's getting late today, and I'm tired, so I'm going to rest."
Seeing Ye Xing's ugly face, Su Yimo secretly felt that she had just used too much strength. If he really made him half-dead, she would be the one who suffered.
Never mind, never mind, it's just bath water, right? A few times won't be a big deal.
"Yes, thank you, Master."
Seeing Su Yimo relax and go into the house to rest, Ye Xing couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood.
