"I didn't break any rules!" Before Hu Yue could respond, Shuten-dōji, sitting opposite her, spoke up somewhat aggrievedly to explain to Song Mengmeng: "We are legitimate business people!"
We all went through the proper procedures to enter China!
"..." Not only did Song Mengmeng look at Shuten with disdain, but Hu Da and Hu Yue, who were sitting next to her, also stared at him as if he were an idiot.
"Don't you believe me? We really did enter the country through the normal procedures. We have temporary residence permits!" To prove it, Shuten actually took out the permits to show Song Mengmeng and the others.
Well, I'm speechless.
"What if we go to Cyprus?!"
Song Mengmeng tilted her head and sized up Shuten across from her, her expression suggesting that he thought Shuten might be trying to trick her and that she had evidence. This amused Shuten, who then took out another new document and showed it to Song Mengmeng: "This is my application for entry investigation qualification. You only need to fill in your names on it to enter the country normally."
It must be said that Shuten-dōji's sincerity in this collaboration is quite evident.
Not only did they provide transportation to Cyprus, but they also prepared all the necessary immigration procedures for Song Mengmeng and her group in advance.
However, when it came time to finalize the list of those going, Hu Yue chose to stay behind. She had her reasons for this decision; with Song Mengmeng and Hu Da's sudden departure for Cyprus, if she went along, they might have no one to turn to for help should anything happen.
However, compared to her concern for Song Mengmeng here, Hu Da and Song Mengmeng were more worried about her driving back to the city alone.
"What's the big deal? Before I met you guys, I often drove all over the country alone to complete missions. I've encountered much harsher environments than this before. It's nothing!"
Sitting in the passenger seat, Hu Yue was a little annoyed that the two people in front of her were focusing on something else. She had to try her best to bring the focus of the discussion back on track: "Don't talk about me for now, think about yourselves first!"
Actually, if possible, I wouldn't really recommend that you go to Cyprus with that monster, Shuten-dōji!
But time is of the essence and there is really no other way.
So you must be careful! No matter what happens, you can't let your guard down!
Hu Yue muttered to herself, still worried, without considering that the two people in front of her were actually much stronger than her: "Also, no matter what happens when we get to Cyprus, give me a message immediately!"
I will contact the Xuanmen sect immediately upon my return, and if possible, I will do my utmost to provide you with the greatest assistance.
At first, Hu Da would tease Hu Yue about making a mountain out of a molehill when faced with her nagging. However, after being seriously reprimanded by Hu Yue, Hu Da chose to shut up and listen to the lecture.
In short, Hu Yue almost never stopped giving instructions on the way to the airport. Even when seeing Song Mengmeng and the others off at the airport, she still followed behind them with some concern, continuing to nag and give them instructions.
Even Shuten-dōji, who was accompanying them, couldn't stand it anymore and couldn't help but say, "Since you're so worried, why don't you come with us?!"
Hu Yue felt no honor at all when faced with the invitation from this great demon. Her first reaction was that this great demon must be up to some kind of scheme again!
Therefore, she adopted an unusually assertive attitude, glaring at Shuten-dōji and threatening him without backing down: "Stop having any bad intentions. If you dare to harm Mengmeng and the others, don't blame me for being impolite!"
"Young lady, I don't think it's right for you to treat people differently like this!"
You're prejudiced against me because I'm a yokai from the Land of Cherry Blossoms, but what about her? Isn't she also a great yokai from our Land of Cherry Blossoms? Why are you so kind to her?!
Shuten-dōji really couldn't hold back this time.
If it were truly a case of differential treatment based on nationality, that would be one thing, but Hu Da was also the great demon Tamamo-no-Mae from the Sakura Kingdom before, so why is this girl so friendly to Tamamo-no-Mae?!
Isn't this double standard a bit too blatant?!
"Do you even know my last name?!" Hu Yue raised an eyebrow, showing no kindness towards Shuten-dōji despite his displeasure; instead, her mockery intensified.
She looked at Shuten-dōji as if he were an idiot: "My surname is Hu, and I have fox blood in me!"
She is my ancestor, so why can't I respect her?!
Who do you think you are? You've never had good intentions from the moment you approached us. What makes you think you can expect me to treat you kindly?!
"Shuten, how old are you? How can you argue with a little girl like this? Don't you think it's childish?!" Just as Shuten was about to lose his temper, Huda suddenly came over and patted his shoulder, defusing the tense situation with ease.
Faced with such a mixed doubles match, the outnumbered Shuten-dōji could only swallow his anger.
If it comes down to pure strength, he currently possesses the power to fight that little Pixiu, but Hu Da…
Forget it, I've been punished before, I'll just have to play it safe for now!
Under Hu Yue's worried gaze, the plane glided off the runway into the night, roared into the sky, and flew towards distant Cyprus.
Because it was a private jet chartered by Shuten-dōji, the facilities on the plane were naturally quite good. Just like the flight Song Mengmeng had taken to Hong Kong before, there were also rest areas for people to relax.
Because the flight was quite long, Song Mengmeng and Hu Da were taken to the lounge to rest as soon as they boarded the plane.
