Liu Rushuang looked at the two of them and explained, “A long time ago, countless demonic beasts emerged from the forest and attacked the neighboring human settlements. Just when the humans thought they were going to be wiped out, the G.o.d of War from the Celestial Realm arrived in the Mortal Realm. The G.o.d helped humans defeat the race of demonic beasts and used magic to imprison them in ice and eternal sleep. Those demonic beasts couldn't possibly roam the Mortal Realm without some help.”
Han Moze and Ming Ye were left shocked with eyes wide open, as they listened to what seemed like a fairy tale.
“Milady, is this true?” Ming Ye asked with furrowed brows.
Liu Rushuang silently twitched her lips. “If you don't believe me, then forget about it!”
She turned to look at Han Moze. “Ze, I have to save Blood Feast's people!”
Han Moze chose to believe Liu Rushuang and looked at her with a faint smile. “Shuang'er, I'll help you!”
Ming Ye looked at the two of them gaze deeply into each other's eyes and felt a little out of place.
Liu Rushuang noticed three shadows outside the door and flatly said, “Three clan masters, just come in.”
Lin Ye, Mo Ye, and Mei Ye rushed into the room.
“Milady, did something happen to Blood Feast?” asked Lin Ye with tightened brows.
Liu Rushuang explained that the Blood Feast elders and a.s.sa.s.sins were held captive and the story of the army of demonic beasts.
Mei Ye's eyes shot wide open. “Milady, is this true? How could this be?”
Liu Rushuang silently twitched her lips again. “If you don't believe me, then forget it.”
“Then, milady, where must we go to save Blood Feast's people?” Asked Mei Ye.
The group stared at Liu Rushuang with all seriousness.
Liu Rushuang noticed that she had everyone's undivided attention. Then, she flatly said, “I don't know.”
Everyone collapsed.
Ming Ye silently twitched his lips and still thought that Liu Rushuang's story was unbelievable. He believed that there were demonic beasts but the Celestial Realm, G.o.d of War, imprisonment, and whatnot, he couldn't believe.
Ming Ye contemplated it for a moment with furrowed brows. “Milady, I've tracked those demonic beasts' footprints before. If I'm not wrong, those demonic beasts all headed East.”
The group of people in the room blinked. “East?”
It seemed like they would have to head east to find the demonic beasts and save the people. However, the eastern lands were so vast, where should they go exactly?
Liu Rushuang furrowed her brows and flatly said, “Why did those demonic beasts attack Blood Feast?”
Then, she continued, “All of you may leave and get some rest. First thing tomorrow morning, we'll go find the demonic beasts' whereabouts. We must save our people!”
“Yes, milady.” The clan masters turned on their heels and walked out with sullen looks on their faces.
Han Moze tightly hugged Liu Rushuang and comforted her. “Shuang'Er, don't worry. We'll definitely save Blood Feast's people!”
Liu Rushuang lay her head on Han Moze's shoulder, then furrowed her brows in deep thought. Just who had set the army of demonic beasts free?
The Imperial Palace of Beiming.
Qing'er turned to Prince Hengan, Han Moxi who was still reading through the memorials of the emperor. “Why do you read memorials till midnight every day? I remember the emperor took less than two hours to finish them.”
Han Moxi glanced up at Qing'Er with agony. “Can I compare to my royal brother? I wonder when he'll be back. He's already been gone for almost two months now!”
Qing'er furrowed her brows. “I miss my Young Miss too. They should be back in the next few days. After all, the war is over!”
“Ah… Let's hope so!” Han Moxi continued to lower his head, looked at the memorials, then yawned.
Qing'er blushed. “My lord, you yawned twenty-eight times tonight!”
