Chapter 1165: Come Out

s.h.i.+ Zhong’s face sank, and he raised his hand to stop him. “You have already captured them. There is no need to further hara.s.s two young ladies.”

That young general snickered and crossed his arms with a taunting look at s.h.i.+ Zhong. “Our general captured these people. What does it have to do with you?”

“Take them away to the va.s.sal king’s estate.” At the young general’s order, the old man driving the prisoners’ carriage brandished his whip.

Nevertheless, s.h.i.+ Zhong blocked the carriage with his horse and announced with a cold smile, “After entering the capital, they are all prisoners of war. Escort them all to the North Battalion!”

“s.h.i.+ Zhong, you’re seeking death, aren’t you!” The young general, Nian Chong, raised his whip with a cold face. “If you dare to keep blocking my way, be careful that my whip has no eyes!”

“Oh? Is that so?” Crown Prince Mo, who had urged his horse over, leisurely joined the conversation.

Everyone suddenly jolted in fright when they turned to look. s.h.i.+ Zhong immediately flipped off his horse and genuflected on one knee.”This humble general, s.h.i.+ Zhong, greets Your Highness the Crown Prince.”

Crown Prince Mo gestured for s.h.i.+ Zhong to rise before shooting a piercing look at the Va.s.sal Prince of An’nan’s subordinates.

The military officers, led by Old Jia and Nian Chong, all knelt down.

However, Nian Chong scanned Qiao Mu’s face wickedly, causing him to be stunned by her beauty.

Qiao Mu tugged the crown prince’s hair, struggling for him to let go. She then hopped to the ground and jogged over to the prisoners’ carriage.

Gazing helplessly at his little wifey, Mo Lian could only wave his hand, cutting down the bronze lock on the prisoners’ carriage with a pulse of mystic energy.

After the doors opened, Qiao Mu extended her small hand. Everyone turned to look at her, thinking that she was going to help the two pitiful young ladies out of the prisoners’ carriage.

Yet the reality was…

*Slap!*

Qiao Mu smacked one of the young ladies’ heads and scolded like she would a child, “What are you crying for! Shut up!”

Everyone: “…”

These useless things, seeing them made her angry! Why were these bunch of merfolk always such weaklings?

They got captured all the time, with people wanting to kill and dissect them for their naga pearls so that they could maintain youthful appearances and improve their looks.

All the time? Could it be that she had seen captured merfolk before?

Something flashed in Qiao Mu’s mind, but it was so fast that she couldn’t grab hold of it.

Those sealed memories were so fleeting that every time she wanted to look at them closely, there was nothing there.

Such a strange feeling!

The little fellow blinked. When she saw the two young ladies weeping while hugging their heads, she couldn’t help but smack the other person’s head too before roaring without holding back, “Come down yourselves!”

Mo Lian twitched his mouth.

Although his darling didn’t remember anything for the time being, her deep-rooted violent behavior hadn’t changed one bit!

The two mermaids shrunk their necks while holding their heads as they walked down from the prisoners’ carriage, their terrified gazes scanning Qiao Mu nonstop.

With a flick of her hand, Qiao Mu took out two coats and tossed them over.

The two girls quickly caught them and draped them around their shoulders while repeatedly expressing their thanks.

Nevertheless, Qiao Mu simply turned around and walked forward. Yet when she turned back and saw that those two blockheads were still standing there dumbly on the spot, she couldn’t help but shout, “Come here!”

The two mermaids gave a shudder before quickly catching up.

However, before they could walk far, that young general, Nian Chong, straightened his body halfway and blocked their path with his hand. “You cannot do this! They are to be brought back to the Va.s.sal King of An’nan’s Estate…”

“Nian Chong!” Old Jia yelled at him, indicating for him to quickly shut up.
