"AH, IT TURNS out that there is a countryside here," Mu Hongzhi muttered.
They set foot in a deserted village. Only dirt roads begin to grass, some houses are not maintained and may not be habitable anymore. As it was already afternoon, the atmosphere in the countryside became a bit of a horror. This is the first impression that Lict thought.
There was no sound of livestock or children playing in the yard. Not one person was found. Li Chang Su used his divine eye ability to see what was inside the house.
Most vacant homes have been uninhabited for several years. There was dried blood on some of the doors of the house, making them sure of one thing. This abandoned village had already been attacked by hordes of mutated beasts.
"Dear Cousin, what's inside the house?" ask Mu Hongzhi.
"Not something big but .. there seems to be an aura of darkness here. Be careful, maybe a dark mutated beast is hiding to kill us," the girl explained seriously.
Mu Xianzhai did not say anything. As for the Lict who hugged the mutated white rabbit, it could now only follow behind them.
In the end, they did not find a single mutated black beast. Supposedly, the mutated black beasts were on their way to the foot of the god mountain range and also besieged the Bingshui Country.
They're walking into one of the more livable houses tonight.
"Clean this place first. Do not leave dust behind. Su'er needs a clean place" Mu Xianzhai said.
"..." - ".Mu Hongzhi and Lit instantly became servants.
Facing a young pregnant wife, Mu Xianzhai was even more heartless. Right, this is arrogant! Hit the legs of his second single dog!
It didn't take long to clean the room. Li Chang Su took out a clean pedestal and a few other daily necessities.
Evening has arrived ....
There was no lighting in the village. The extremely dark and gripping outside made the hearts of both Lict and Mu Hongzhi a little uncomfortable. Waging war against the enemy at night or sneaking into their much more dangerous hideout, might be possible. But if faced with this kind of strange atmosphere, they were obviously unwilling.
In the end, Lit sighed. "I'd rather go on a mission to another country to catch ******* instead of spending the night in this ghostly place," he murmured while adding firewood to a clay furnace that was still quite sturdy. It is not too cold at night.
"What are you complaining about?" mu Hongzhi asked who suddenly came into the kitchen holding a container filled with fat lobster and sea shrimp.
Lict was startled and immediately put on her calm expression. "It's nothing. I just don't think I'll dare sleep tonight."
"..." - ".Are you so cowardly? Thought Mu Hongzhi.
"What did the couple do?" tanya Lit distracts.
Mu Hongzhi was putting down the container containing the lobster and opened the hot pot that the Lict had prepared to steam. "Oh, don't ask about them. My cousin has become a slave wife, she's feeding her cousin-in-law with strawberries" she grunted.
Then a light coughing sound came from the next room. "I heard it. I'm asking you to steam lobster and shrimp, not steam gossip!"
Mu Xianzhai's voice was not loud but still held meaning in it. Mu Hongzhi suddenly felt his feathers standing all over and wanted to shout.
So he swallowed his saliva and said a few good words before finally becoming an honest person.
If the atmosphere in the empty house was a little warm tonight, then ....
…ΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩ…
The imperial capital was not very peaceful at this moment. Ye Tianli and Mu Peizhi rode towards the imperial palace and reported to the emperor about what was happening at the border. Even Ye Shi himself gave some information that the dark mutated beasts were secretly sneaking into the underground tunnels.
Inevitably, Ye Tianli had to seal the underground tunnel dugout with a boulder in order for the creatures not to appear.
Emperor Mu could not sit still either. "What's the plan tonight? Can people's safety be assured?" tanyanya was a little worried.
Ye Tianli was quite calm, standing while holding the report scroll of his subordinate drai. "People can be guaranteed to be safe if they don't leave the house at this time. Let the soldiers patrol. Not to mention the mutated white beasts also helped us to get rid of them. Others ... The mountain eagle mutation messenger silver dragon had also arrived," he explained at length.
Tonight the great event that has stirred up the entire population of Bingshui country has become a high-level danger. The whole community is not allowed to leave.
Emperor Mu had an elite army in his hands and was ready to secure the palace at any time. But its people must also be guaranteed to be safe.
Mu Peizhi could be considered satisfying this time around and fought hard to save many people.
Having just finished discussing, one of the palace guards immediately faced the emperor.
"Your Majesty, the leader of the mutated white mountain eagle asked for permission to enter."
Emperor Mu was quite relaxed this time. "Let him in" he said.
Shortly after the guards left, a tall man in robes and long white hair entered the hall. The man who had beauty surpassing Ye Tianli entered and smiled at the emperor then greeted him.
The leader of the white mountain eagle of a god-level mutation had no name. Just like to be called Bai which means white.
"The mountain eagle king, Bai, is facing the human emperor," Bai said very politely.
"..." - ".Emperor Mu who was called 'emperor of men' was somehow unable to refute as if it was indeed true.
He could hardly believe his own eyes until now. This god-level mutated white mountain eagle turned into a human. Even so, the glare of his sharp eyes could not be removed from the nature of the eagle beast.
"No need to be polite. What brought King Bai here?" ask Emperor Mu.
"Our eagle army has prepared to attack the border at any time and I've taken care of some white mountain eagle of divine and sacred level mutation to advance. This wave of mutated black beasts was expected to end .. when the black dragon was defeated." Bai's tone was a bit heavy but these were all facts that should be accepted by mankind.
The ministers present in the hall were shocked and started discussing this secretly. If this is true, then the country is in deep trouble.
The god-level mutated white mountain eagle also told me that lava had flowed along bottomless ravines beyond the borders of the country and some of it had entered into dead river fissures. Thus, hot springs are formed at this time.
Not to mention other phenomena. The silver dragon had been resurrected and now Mu Xianzhai's entourage had already arrived at the foot of the god mountain range.
The rest depends on humans.
After hearing that, Emperor Mu refrained from being surprised again and again but in the end still underestimated his declining psychological state.
After the departure of Bai, Ye Tianli and Mu Peizhi, Emperor Mu leaned on his dragon seat while touching his chest. Fortunately, he did not have a heart attack.
"Your Majesty, please calm down. The third prince and the princess will definitely win the historic battle this time," said the ever-loyal Eunuch by Emperor Mu's side.
Emperor Mu sneered at the eunuch of his confidence. "What do you know. That kid, if he gets home safely this time, I'll give him a big vacation!"
"..." - ".The eunuch of his trust was helpless. Emperor Mu had always been like this, indulging the third prince but also becoming a victim in all his ridiculous accusations.
"Well, where's the fifth kid? Is he trading again secretly?"
"..." - ".His confidence eunuch could only slap his mouth and was reluctant to speak the truth.
Your Majesty, didn't you ask the fifth prince to lock himself up during this crisis? Inner eunuch.
Speaking of Mu Zhixiao, Emperor Mu never let his guard down. The child who is often lost from his responsibilities is actually still spoiled secretly.
