690 Hunt

ted, and we didn't talk much.There are still scabbed tooth marks on his left chest, and he lingers over them as he always does, sucking and biting. As long as I don't anger him, he shows me some pity,...Hunting Party

Are you really going to besiege that little demon No way! My family is big, but everyone, young and old, needs protection!

What should I do if I encounter that little demon

Younan was covered in leaves. Bai Wu Chang said helplessly, "The little Emperor is completely uncontrollable. In the blink of an eye, he can climb so far away. I even thought about chaining him up...but I don't have the guts~~"

Pffft…

I held onto Younan, he smiled and kissed me, his hands happily "patted" him, clutching the white Chang's long staff with delight.

"What is the Emperor doing Why, why make Younan run around everywhere What if something happens" I couldn't help but bring a touch of reproach into my voice.

Bai Wuchang raised his sleeve and laughed, "Unexpected Hee hee... Didn't the little princess see just now The Thousandfold Lotus bestowed by Mu Gongjinmu protected them with golden light, and the Taiyi Divine gave them a Taiji talisman. Even the Emperor himself inscribed the characters on it. It wouldn't be easy for demons to harm the two of them... The only thing they need to guard against is mortals."

"That little magic abacus played very well, wanting to possess the child. But alas~hehehe~ A child of the gods is not something they can touch"

"What about the others" I asked hurriedly.

"The Emperor is stationed in the center. There are too many mortals here, and I'm afraid they might become desperate and possess someone if pushed too far. Dealing with that would be troublesome... Besides, we still need to catch the mastermind behind all this."

Bai Wuchang said a few words to me simply, and behind him came a shrill shriek from the ghosts.

Turning back, we saw a faint black smoke drifting above the trees.

"What's going on I looked at Bai WuChang with some confusion. Bai WuChang frowned slightly and said, "Destroy a soul"

He held no divine position nor was he a resident of the underworld, so he faced fewer restrictions in his actions.

Then, I soon saw Ji Dou carrying his sword and walking over. Land God was beside him, looking extremely wronged. As soon as he saw me and Bai Wu Chang, he immediately reported: "My Lady, Master Bai, Ji Dou Xingjun said that the male ghost is stubborn and his crime deserves punishment. He…"

Jìdū raised an eyebrow and said, "Mù Xiǎoqiáo, this is not the time for compassion. This Star Monarch can't stand your procrastination and unnecessary fuss. Clean up all this mess to save yourself some trouble!"

"Where's that female ghost"

"Humph, that old geezer talking about underworld order, I've had enough to last a lifetime. And that female ghost isn't any better either. For the sake of her being a woman, I'll just let it slide this time." Ji Du Xing Jun held his sword in one hand and stuck the other in his pocket.

Be as sassy as you want.

Bai Wuchang chuckled and said, "Thanks for your help, Star God. But we're busy looking for that little demon right now and don't have time to chat with you. Please excuse us."

He was about to drift away when Ji said in a low growl, "Wait! Where is the Emperor What is he doing"

"His Majesty is setting up a formation three miles outside the array eye. We are surrounding that little demon... Look, even the young Emperor who isn't yet a year old can suppress him~~Hee hee~~ Don't worry, you don't need to help us, we can handle it."

Doesn't this sound like Bai Wuchang is trying to provoke me

It was completely unsurprising that... he got tricked.

He glared at Younan in my arms. Younan was still holding his long staff, waving it back and forth and slapping his palms against it, looking smug.

The Little Celestial Lord is now the target of their ambush, we are defending with all our might, but they are elusive and we haven't been able to catch him...

"That's just your incompetence!" Ji Du snorted coldly. "Give me—"

Give, give to you!

He reached out and pulled Younan from my arms, grinning wickedly: “Since this little fellow has the protection of a deity, he’d be perfect as bait. This celestial lord will have an opportunity to showcase his divine power.”

"Don't be ridiculous!" I frowned. "How could you use a child as bait! And give me—"

The General used his sword hilt to separate me, saying, "Don't be so petty! With the Star Lord here, what demons or ghosts could possibly cause trouble Besides, your husband is setting up an array, and you have hostages to rescue, right Just let this little one come with me. I guarantee he'll be unharmed."

Ji Du insisted on seeing what was special about You Nan. We couldn't talk him out of it, Bai Wu Chang winked at me, signaling that I should give You Nan to Ji Du.

"Little Lady, I'll help you. Don't worry."

Alright... I'll keep looking for others.

Land God personally led me the way, he took me to that small dilapidated wooden house.

This wooden house was built facing the wrong direction. It's in a shady and damp place. I estimate that when it was first built, people only considered its coolness and didn't expect it to become such a gloomy spot.

This cabin had been under Jiang Qiyun's close watch. Changning used it as a temporary base, not leaving for the moment. I saw him dragging his broken body out of the shack like a walking corpse.

"Long life!" I whispered.

He looked up and saw me, raising his hand. "I'm burning the blood-soaked planks," he said.

I nodded and asked, "Where are my family"

Changning smiled wryly and shook her head, raising her hand to point with her thumb toward the small dilapidated house behind her.

I hurried inside and ran straight into my dad.

He is whittling a piece of small round wood.

"Dad! What... what are you doing" I stared at him with wide eyes.

My dad looked up at me and sighed, "What can I do You have to obey your mother's orders!"

"Huh What did Grandma ask you to do" I asked, puzzled.

"At just returned from his bed and could actually stand and walk a few steps. Grandma was so happy! She asked me to smooth out this piece of wood, making it into a simple walker for At to push as he walks."

Heaven...

"What They even have rules for pushcarts here!" I exclaimed, dumbfounded.

My dad also had a headache and waved his hand, saying: "Go tell your grandma. Just try to talk her into it..."

You're not here for a picnic! That little demon might be clueless enough to gnaw on a hard bone, but you guys have got to have some sense of urgency about being hostages, okay!

I walked into the room and saw my grandmother and Aunt Wu sitting on two cleaned-up, old stools. My grandmother was letting Yu Gui step on her leg to exercise, while happily saying: "My little darling is so cute! So smart~~ He can walk now, good boy~ Oh~~ My heart~~"

I… I…

The old woman beside her chimed in, "Yu Nan needs to be special. It's natural for him to walk earlier. Since Yu Gui can walk this early after returning home, it means his bones are hardening quickly. You've been feeding him well."

As she spoke, she stroked a blackwood cane in her hand. A black cat lay on her lap, alertly eyeing its surroundings, ready to pounce and scratch at any sign of trouble.

Upon closer inspection, there was a hand-stitched old cloth bag by grandma's side. Inside were her "familiars": an ink stick, red thread, and glutinous rice talismans...

The Wolf of War leapt through the broken window, his blazing blade, the Spirit Severing Sword, shimmering in his hand.

Little Nie came in too, impatiently saying to me, “Why are you just now coming That clueless little demon was bitten by me and is hiding, too afraid to come out! A thousand years of cultivation and that’s all there is to it!”

In my heart, I silently lit candles for the demons and ghosts that had trespassed into my home.

—and swallowed the blood in my mouth, using my other hand to dig my nails into the cracks in the ground, anchoring myself. I clung to Long Ge's hand, my nails digging into his flesh almost to the bone....
