“Yes, yes, yes.”
Ming Shu replied indifferently as she pushed him.
“Why are you pushing me? I can walk. Did you hear what I said?”
“Yes, yes.”
“…”
Lian Sui sat down in frustration. All she did was bully him. He was too good-tempered.
While Lian Sui was pouting, Ming Shu came back with a tray.
Lian Sui looked up. Ming Shu put the tray down and started arranging the plates and cutleries.
She made sure that the temperature was right before placing the food beside Lian Sui’s mouth.
Lian Sui stared at her.
“Aren’t you eating?” Ming Shu raised her eyebrows. “If you don’t eat, I’ll eat it.”
Lian Sui opened his mouth and sucked on the spoon. He glared at her with puppy eyes. He wouldn’t give her any food!
His gaze wasn’t threatening at all.
It was just cute.
Ming Shu: “…” This little demon is too cute.
Deep breaths!
Calm down!
Ming Shu fed Lian Sui calmly.
Lian Sui ate everything Ming Shu fed him. However, when he ate something he didn’t like, he would frown and force himself to swallow it. He looked so pitiful.
After swallowing the food, he would smile proudly.
Ming Shu sighed.
This was her fate.
He was her little demon after all.
…
The news that there was a dark sorcerer in the city spread.
Many sorcerers came to find Ming Shu at the place she stayed at.
In the end, they were all beaten by Ming Shu.
As more people got beaten, no one dared to come and look for her again.
With the help of Jun Yinyin, her reputation started spreading too.
Her search warrant two years ago was dug up again. She was tagged as a ruthless murderer once again.
They even said that she was on the same side as Jiuyou.
It was obvious that the people from the Jun family didn’t clear her name after learning the truth of what happened in the valley.
Hence, she became one of the murderers who killed those people. The other was Jiuyou.
Everyone condemned her but no one dared to find her for trouble. They couldn’t win anyway.
Soon, it was time for everyone to gather and enter the maze forest. Ming Shu brought Lian Sui along.
The gathering point was outside the city.
By the time Ming Shu arrived, many people were already there.
“Why is she here?”
“What is she doing here?”
“It’s Jun Shang.”
Ming Shu walked over. The crowd quickly moved away from her. Everyone was on guard. They kept pointing at her.
Ming Shu didn’t mind. She found a place to sit down.
After a few minutes, the people from the Sanctuary came over.
Jun Yinyin and her subordinates followed behind them.
The horse carriage stopped. Fang Xi stepped out of the carriage. He paled in comparison to Jun Yinyin’s fairy.
“Lord Oracle.”
Fang Xi nodded and walked to the front. He didn’t say anything. He was waiting for the horse carriage at the back.
Qu Qingge came down the carriage with Qian Ye. He saw Fang Xi and swiftly moved away from him. He started searching for Ming Shu among the crowd.
It wasn’t hard to find her. The area around Ming Shu was empty. He saw her at a glance.
Fang Xi’s gaze was dark. He lowered his voice and asked the person beside him, “Is everyone here?”
“Almost,” the person replied.
“Lord Oracle.” Jun Yinyin came forward with Yuan Fei. She pointed at Ming Shu and said, “She’s a dark sorcerer. I don’t know why she’s here.”
Fang Xi saw Ming Shu too.
The moment he saw her, he was reminded of what happened two years ago.
The entire city was bustling with her presence. Fang Xi heard that everyone who went to find her for trouble was beaten badly.
She had the magic scepter too.
“We’re going to kill dark sorcerers. Is she their spy?”
“Lord Oracle, please punish her!”
“Lord Oracle.”
Fang Xi raised his hand. Everyone turned quiet.
He looked at Ming Shu and asked, “Jun Shang, what do you want?”
“I want to go with you.” Ming Shu smiled brightly.
Fang Xi: ???
Fang Xi’s face turned black. “You’re a dark sorcerer. Don’t you think that it’s unsuitable for you to be here?”
“Oh…” Ming Shu paused for a few seconds before continuing, “Are you all going to beat me up?”
Fang Xi: “…”
Everyone: “…”
Was she provoking them?
Flip the table!
She was provoking them!
No one knew how strong she was after two years. Fang Xi remembered his goal in coming here. He couldn’t lose any manpower now.
However, the reputation of the Sanctuary would be affected if he let a dark sorcerer stay in the team.
“Lord Oracle?” Jun Yinyin called.
Fang Xi regained his senses. He looked at everyone and said, “Our mission is to kill the dark sorcerers in the maze forest. There’s no need to waste time here.”
He was implying that they shouldn’t fight with Ming Shu.
“Lord Oracle, are we going to let her follow us?” someone asked.
“She’s a dark sorcerer. She must be their spy.”
“Yes. We must get rid of her!”
Fang Xi’s expression didn’t change. “Which one of you is willing to kill her?”
Everyone suddenly turned quiet.
“Isn’t that the responsibility of the Sanctuary?” someone muttered.
Fang Xi predicted the answer. He waved his hand and asked everyone to gather.
Ming Shu stood outside. She couldn’t hear what they were saying.
Qu Qingge didn’t participate in the gathering. He looked past the crowd and exchanged glances with Ming Shu. I don’t know anything.
The crowd calmed down. Even Jun Yinyin stopped targeting her. She just glared at Ming Shu coldly and returned to her position.
“Prepare to enter the maze forest.”
Fang Xi returned to his horse carriage.
The people from the Sanctuary led the way.
Qu Qingge secretly moved to the back and walked beside Ming Shu.
“Are you really coming along?” She was very famous recently.
“Why not?”
Qu Qingge’s lips twitched. “Aren’t you afraid that they will surround you?”
“I’m not afraid of them.”
Qu Qingge: “…”
Fine, you’re the boss. You’re amazing.
“Be careful. Fang Xi will try to get rid of you,” Qu Qingge reminded her.
“That’s good.”
“…”
He couldn’t understand what she was thinking.
Why was it good when someone wanted to kill her?
“Is Fang Xi pestering you?” Ming Shu suddenly started gossiping.
“…” If you don’t mention this, we’re still friends.
Qu Qingge took a deep breath. “I don’t know what he’s thinking. However, my status rose so he doesn’t dare to act too boldly now.
