Chapter 558: Deep into the Tiger's Den
Yuwen Su and his companions were originally looking down at the little girl in front of them with frivolous smiles in their eyes, but when they heard these words, the smiles on their faces froze.
The guards nearby were immediately furious, "Where did this wild girl come from? How dare you!"
As the man spoke, he raised the whip in his hand and was about to hit Li Sheng. Li Sheng seemed to have expected this, and he picked up a stone from the ground and threw it at the guard, but without saying a word, he turned around and ran away.
Yuwen Su narrowed his eyes and suddenly smiled. She was just a wild girl kept in captivity in the manor, yet she dared to ignore him like that.
Just as ignorant as Si Jinyu.
In this case, he would have a good time with her and see if she dared to be so arrogant again.
Yuwen Su thought so and immediately kicked his horse to chase after the girl.
Seeing this, the other person and the guards nearby started laughing and started chasing after him.
The group of people didn't really try hard, they just rode on their horses, chasing the little girl slowly and steadily as if they were chasing prey. After all, how could a person outrun a horse?
As they thought about the little girl crying and begging for mercy when they surrounded the man later, they laughed even more wildly.
"Don't run, little sister."
"Run faster, little girl. Hahaha."
Li Sheng turned his head to look at the person chasing after him. He was running very fast, but there was no panic or anxiety on his face. His little face was tense and he quickened his pace.
Yuwen Su and his companions did not expect that this little girl could run so fast, so they sped up to try to stop her.
Li Sheng had been listening to the movement of the horse's hooves behind him. The moment he confirmed that the horse's speed had increased, he suddenly turned around and uttered an indistinct groan.
Yuwen Su and his companions were puzzled. The next second, the horses under them seemed to be collectively bewitched. Their front hooves stopped abruptly, while their hind hooves were raised high.
The group of people who were originally showing off on their horses were caught off guard and were thrown off their horses.
There were one or two who managed to stay steady, but they hung on the horses' backs in a desperate manner, struggling to keep the horses steady.
Li Sheng looked at his masterpiece without feeling proud. He just evaluated it again seriously.
"fool!"
Yuwen Su's face turned pale and blue. The pain in his body made it impossible for him to maintain his calm expression. A bit of ferocity appeared on his face. "Catch her for me!"
If he didn't vent his anger on her today, he wouldn't be called Yuwen Su!
Seeing several guards struggling to get up, Li Sheng did not linger but turned around and quickly ran into the woods.
Yuwen Su was helped by someone to catch up with her. After entering the forest, he could not find her. He thought she was hiding and ordered the guards to search for her. Search the forest to find her today!
"Yes, Master."
A group of people started searching in the woods in a hurry, but they didn't know that Li Sheng had already come out of the woods from the other end and quickly returned to the side wall of the manor.
She listened to the faint howling of the little fox coming from inside the courtyard wall. Her face tensed slightly. Without any hesitation, she took a running start, nimbly jumped onto the wall and climbed over it to get in.
Following the scent of the little fox and avoiding the people in the manor, Li Sheng went all the way to the backyard, where he saw the little fox that was locked in a cage and randomly placed in the yard.
The little fox was slightly injured and huddled in the cage shivering. As if it smelled a familiar smell, it turned its head and the moment it saw Li Sheng, it immediately started whimpering at her.
"Don't be afraid, I'm here to save you." Li Sheng said as he quickly stepped forward and tore the rope on the cage with one claw.
He opened the cage, took the little fox out of the cage and put it in his arms, and then comforted it, "Don't make a sound, I'll take you back to your mother."
Li Sheng carried the fox out of the yard and was about to leave the same way she came. However, before she reached the wall, she saw Yuwen Su had returned to the manor at some point, accompanied by several guards.
He limped, looking at Li Sheng and the little fox in her arms, with a sneer on his face, "So you came here for this little fox. If you beg me well, I can give it to you..."
Li Sheng didn't believe what this man said.
Looking at the people who gathered around him, his face was full of vigilance and precaution, and his tone was as serious as ever, "You were the ones who stole my fox first."
"It's a little beast, it's lucky to be noticed by our young master."
"Since the young lady wants this beast so much, why not stay with him?"
Yuwen Su thought that since the little girl had fallen into the trap herself, it was not his fault.
But even if a little girl died on his farm, Si Jinyu would not be able to find any evidence. Thinking of this, he looked at Li Sheng with a distinctly sinister look.
Li Sheng met the obviously malicious gaze in front of him, and stepped back cautiously, holding the little fox.
Although her body grew rapidly due to the rapid growth of her spiritual power, and her body reactions became faster, it was probably impossible for her to rush out of this crowd with the little fox unscathed.
Li Sheng's nose trembled slightly, but there was no fear on his face. Instead, he bared his teeth at the few people to show his threat.
She held the little fox tightly in one hand and quietly put the other hand behind her back.
Since I can't leave unscathed.
Well, let's use some means that will cause injuries.
As long as Linglong and her brother can't see her fierce look, she is not afraid.
She doesn't care whether these people are afraid or not.
As she thought of this, she saw the five fingers of one of her hands behind her back suddenly spread out, and sharp claws appeared in the blink of an eye.
