Ji Fengyao said she was going back to the military camp.
Once outside the city, she said, "Hu Ji, let's go check on that person, and watch out for those tails following us."
“Yes, Your Highness,” Hu Ji replied.
He continued driving the chariot toward the military camp, but suddenly the speed doubled, and the chariot quickly rushed into a bamboo forest outside the city.
The groups of people following behind them all showed excitement when they saw this.
The more frantically they flee, the more it proves that there's something wrong with them!
If we can find something wrong with the Ninth Prince and this bandit, we can report it to our master in the capital and there will be a great reward!
But these groups of people were dumbfounded as soon as they rushed into the bamboo grove. Completely disregarding the risk of revealing their location, they all came to an abrupt halt and stood rooted to the spot, not daring to move an inch, not even daring to breathe loudly.
Damn it!
Can anyone tell them when so many ferocious beasts arrived outside Maple City?
And what's the situation with these ferocious beasts?
Not only can jackals, wolves, tigers, and leopards all coexist peacefully,
There were even creatures inside that looked like roe deer and pheasants! How could they coexist peacefully?!
They're all still squatting here without making a sound. What's going on? Are they contemplating life?
"Beast army! This is the Nine Kings' beast army!" one of the people who had heard the rumors exclaimed in a low voice, almost wetting himself with fear.
His companion was also trembling, his teeth chattering, and he stammered, "Then, what do we do now?"
"I heard these ferocious beasts are almost like spirits, incredibly intelligent," the man said, sweat pouring down his forehead. Suddenly, he screamed, turned, and ran for his life: "Of course, I'm running for my life!"
As soon as he ran away,
Everyone else turned and fled for their lives.
"Roar!"
The ferocious beasts that were resting in the bamboo forest were enraged: These foolish humans disturbed their rest and tried to run away without even apologizing. They were so rude and had to be taught a lesson!
The various groups were chased and cried out in despair:
Doesn't home-cooked food taste good?
Aren't wives and concubines beautiful?
Aren't children lovable?
What on earth are they doing here?!
Hearing the roars of beasts and cries of agony behind them, the magpie gloated, "Of all people to follow, you had to follow my young lady! You deserve it!"
A short while later.
The ghost-faced creature bounced over like a cheerful dog, following Ji Fengyao's carriage and fawningly asking for credit: "How about it, mistress? Is the safety level here enough? I had them all squat here, a 360-degree surround, even the mosquitoes and earthworms in the bamboo forest have been wiped out!"
"You did a great job, very impressive. I will reward you handsomely later," Ji Fengyao praised him generously.
Ghost Face immediately seized the opportunity, fawningly saying, "Then, Mistress, do you think you could help me refine more of this spiritual liquid? My underlings are such big eaters. If I, as their leader, don't have any supplies, I'll lose face!"
"You still have any sense of self-respect? I didn't even know that until you told me," Ji Fengyao chuckled.
Ghost Face chuckled obsequiously, his skin thick as ice: "In front of the mistress, I, Ghost Face, naturally don't need that nonsense; but in order to better serve the mistress, I still need to try to recruit some underlings, and I still need to pick up my face and wear it again."
You're thick-skinned, so you're right!
Ji Fengyao was also impressed by this dog and laughed, "Alright, as long as you keep an eye on that person and make sure he arrives in the capital without anyone noticing, I'll make you an even better-tasting spirit liquid after he returns. I guarantee you'll have face in front of me!"
"Awoo~" Ghost Face let out a joyful cry.
He readily agreed: "Don't worry, mistress, it's just checking on a half-dead person, it's very simple!"
