Shang Beiyu quietly met Ji Fengyao's domineering and resolute gaze, and raised an eyebrow in sympathy:
It turns out his little guy has such a bold and domineering side.
That's good. Given his status and position, those who stand by his side need to have the courage and boldness to avoid a difficult future.
Shang Beiyu did not immediately help Song Huiru up, even though she might be his destined one. He did not want the young bandit to misunderstand that "he cares about Song Huiru very much".
He simply asked, "Will I die?"
Ji Fengyao was actually gambling, betting that her more cultivator-like style would win this person's favor, and betting that Song Huiru wasn't that important to this person.
Hearing Shang Beiyu ask this, Ji Fengyao smiled, regaining her former swaggering yet innocent demeanor: "No, I'll only be mute for a year or two."
"Alright, it's a good opportunity to calm down and work on your temper," Shang Beiyu said, glossing over the ordeal Song Huiru had endured for half a day.
Song Huiru: "..."
The hatred in my heart suddenly intensified to the point that I almost exploded on the spot!
This bandit must be a monster!
The Ninth Prince blindly favors her, and now even the Venerable One is showing her the same favoritism!
Feeling Song Huiru's gaze, which seemed to want to devour her alive, Ji Fengyao deliberately turned her gaze to her, looking at her with a provocative, wicked, and disdainful smile: "But judging from her resentful expression, she probably hasn't learned her lesson yet."
I'll have to trouble my seniors to put in some more effort to train me.
Otherwise, if she bumps into me again next time, and I happen to be in a bad mood, I might not be careful and kill her. That would be such a disservice to you, senior.”
"If she's so stupid and stubborn, she won't learn her lesson and will insist on courting death. I can protect her for a while, but not forever." Shang Beiyu didn't want to leave any bad impression on the little bandit, so he didn't give Song Huiru any face at all.
Song Huiru weakly let out two "ah ah" sounds, and tears rolled down her cheeks.
What terrible things has she done?!
She thought she was reborn to become a king, but she never expected that she would be positioned as a bronze-level player from the very beginning, and she was even worse off than in her previous life!
This time, Song Huiru also came to hate Shang Beiyu:
Shang Beiyu, since you've been unkind to me, don't blame me for being unjust to you!
But as soon as the thought crossed her mind, Song Huiru felt an unbearable pain in her soul, as if it were being stabbed by needles and knives. Blood flowed from her seven orifices, and she fainted.
Ji Fengyao asked in surprise, "What's wrong with her? I didn't drug her!"
"It's none of your business. Perhaps you were too angry and your blood flowed backwards," Shang Beiyu said gently to the little bandit, while coldly telling someone in the shadows, "Take her back to your room, reattach her limbs, and regulate her meridians."
"Yes, Your Majesty!" A masked man in black appeared out of the night like a ghost, swiftly carrying away Song Huiru, who lay on the ground like a dead dog.
Even with her intelligence, Ji Fengyao couldn't understand Shang Beiyu's true feelings towards Song Huiru.
Judging from what he said to Song Huiru, he had no feelings for her whatsoever.
But when Song Huiru fainted, he had people take good care of her and even had them expend spiritual energy to help her loosen her meridians. Why was that?
Seeing the young female bandit looking at him with a face full of doubt, her clear phoenix eyes, like obsidian just washed by the early summer rain, were delightful even with their doubts.
Shang Beiyu couldn't help but move closer to the little bandit, gently putting his arm around her shoulder and pulling her slightly closer to him: "What are you thinking about?"
