Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Ba Shu spat fiercely in his heart. It’s the brink of death—how can I think so much? All I want is to live!
Besides, Old Pa was just an ordinary person standing beside him. Even if he were a prince or n.o.ble, loyalty might be abandoned when facing imminent danger!
Ba Shu muttered inwardly, but he didn’t dare to reveal too much on the surface.
Glancing at the expressionless Qiao Mu, he offered a strained smile. “Crown Prince Consort, please be reasonable. What did I do? It was chaotic, and in that critical moment, I… I acted out of self-defense, didn’t I?”
“What kind of self-defense is that? You’re simply betraying your teammate!” Huang Sheng roared, provoking a dangerous narrowing of Her Excellency Lady Qiaoqiao’s eyes. She cast a bone-piercing, cold glare that scanned Ba Shu from head to toe.
Ba Shu, taken aback, defensively took a step back.
For some reason, he felt as though the little lady’s gaze was akin to a handful of blades, capable of instantly slicing through his very essence. It was unsettlingly terrifying.
“You, Crown Prince Consort! Don’t listen to his nonsense. Strictly speaking, we can’t be considered a team either! It’s just a group of people who happened to walk together…” Ba Shut s voice involuntarily softened as he observed the little stoic’s cold expression.
The young crown prince consort inspected Ba Shu with cold detachment, treating him as if he were beneath consideration. “I advise you to stay far away from me.’
“The next time you come within ten steps of me, I’ll kill you!”
Ba Shu’s heart skipped a beat, hastily retreating more than ten steps.
He sensed that the little lady was not jesting. Her eyes conveyed an exceptional seriousness and coldness.
His fear of this young girl didn’t stem from her low cultivation level but rather from her a.s.sociation with terrifying spiritual beasts, divine beasts, Crown
Prince MO, His Highness the Chen Prince, and other unpredictable masters.
Ba Shu dared not invite trouble. He took a few steps back, only turning around when the stench reached him.
At this point, he had already retreated to Zhongli Zhiwei and the others’ side. Surrounded by the flying zombies, he had no option but to summon his broadsword once more and resume the fight against the relentless onslaught.
The flying zombies displayed a peculiar focus as they relentlessly pursued
Zhongli Zhiwei and her companions, as if their very lives hung in the balance.
It seemed as though they were channeling their anger toward these individuals, roaring and persistently giving chase.
Interestingly, none of the flying zombies diverted their attention to attack MO Lian and the rest.
Ba Shu, growing increasingly frustrated from the constant a.s.sault, cursed the seemingly ineffective group in his heart and directed his ire at the easier targets.
“If you’re brave enough, go seek Crown Prince MO and the others to ha.s.sle them! Weren’t you scared off because you witnessed that four-winged flying zombie being swatted to death by Crown Prince MO and the others?”
Even the d.a.m.ned zombies showed signs ot sentience. How could they tolerate this?
Zhongli Zhiwei, unable to contain her frustration, shouted at the old man, “Why aren’t you here helping?”
In this crucial life-and-death moment, an additional pair of hands could make a significant difference. Zhongli Zhiwei couldn’t bear to witness Old Pa sitting alone in such dire straits.
Why were they being pursued like dogs by the quilted zombies? How could they idly stand by and watch?
Interestingly, the person Zhongli Zhiwei most wanted to scold was Qiao Mu. However, upon catching sight of the Crown Prince’s cold demeanor, she refrained from directly confronting Qiao Mu and opted for a more indirect approach..
