77 Chapter 77

Forget it,

She's already silly enough,

How much sillier could she get?

After rubbing the little wolf cub's head, Yumo sighed with a sense of resignation,

"Forget it, as long as she's fine."

"Meow~"

The little wolf, who was enjoying Yumo's touch, naturally had no idea what Yumo was thinking and was simply wagging its tail happily.

Seeing her sister transformed into such a silly, adorable state, Liyu sighed helplessly,

It seemed,

In the near future, she would have to play the role of a babysitter once again.

After a slight sigh, Liyu slowly looked up, meeting Yumo's crimson eyes filled with motherly affection, "Mother, what should we do now? There are still quite a few people over there."

As she spoke,

A cold, murderous intent emerged in Liyu's emerald eyes, sending a shiver down the spines of the two little white birds on her head. Liyu then glanced at the southern part of Galros Fortress, where Marquis Xiumu and the others were. After all, in Liyu's eyes, these people were also part of the Snow Night Empire and had conspired to hurt her sister.

For these people, Liyu already had the urge to cut them all into pieces.

In any case, most of those people had already collapsed, and a few gusts of wind could put an end to them once and for all.

However,

In response to Liyu's question, Yumo shook her head indifferently,

"As for them, it doesn't matter. Let's leave them alone."

"Understood, Mother."

Seeing that Yumo had no intention of taking action, Liyu decisively retracted the murderous intent in her eyes, returning to her usual kind and gentle demeanor. Clearly, playing the role of a good daughter was more important to Liyu than venting her anger.

"So, Mother, what now? Shall we go back?"

"Mm,"

Yumo nodded slightly,

Then, under Liyu's slightly astonished gaze, she walked over to the silver-haired girl nearby and gently cradled the scarred and unconscious heroine in a princess style.

At this sight, Liyu's eyes revealed a hint of hidden anger, but the young girl quickly concealed it.

Afterward, Liyu carefully walked over to Yumo, feigning curiosity, and asked, Updated from novelb(i)n.c(o)m

"Mother, are you going to take this child back with us?"

"Mm, yes."

Yumo nodded noncommittally and gazed into the distance with a thoughtful expression.

Initially, Yumo intended to leave Mengxi inside Galros Fortress, allowing the knights in the distance to save her.

But considering the Snow Night Empire's previous actions, Yumo was slightly uneasy. If these knights wanted to harm the female protagonist, wouldn't that be a disaster? Even if they didn't intend to harm her, would that large group of men not have any indecent thoughts when they saw such a beautiful and unconscious Mengxi?

Yumo couldn't be sure.

After all, she herself sometimes had some strange ideas...

In any case, she didn't want the female protagonist's innocence to be lost so mysteriously. It would be better if she looked after her personally.

In the instant Bernard looked up, his eyes suddenly narrowed! The fear he had just managed to suppress instantly surged within him like a fountain, spreading wildly in his heart, accompanied by an intense premonition...

At this moment,

In front of Bernard,

A blonde man had already appeared before him without him knowing.

He was a handsome man with a golden braid, wearing a gorgeous gown. His face was carved with distinct features, and his cold, aloof eyes seemed to lack focus. The depths of his deep blue eyes were filled with calmness. His golden hair scattered beside his ears, with the earrings emitting a luxurious golden glow.

His figure was tall and slender, yet not rough.

Undoubtedly, he was a one-of-a-kind beauty.

From his appearance, he shared about sixty percent of similarity with Bernard. Along with the crown above his head, symbolizing the status of a 'Crown Prince,' the identity of this blonde man was self-evident. He was the Crown Prince of the Snow Night Empire, Bernard's elder brother,

Snow empires pride Xue Tianao.

Upon seeing this historically outstanding royal member, Bernard's heart not only felt no joy but also erupted with an unprecedented sense of trembling.

Anxiously glancing at Xue Tianao? golden sword, Bernard shakily said,

"Your, your Highness? What, what are you doing?"

In response to Bernard's words, Xue Tianao? just smiled faintly and asked mockingly:

"What do think, my little brother?"

"What, what do you mean?"

"While I was away negotiating with the Scarlet Lotus Empire, you took advantage of my absence and took two magical fission bombs. Did you want to sabotage the relationship between me and the Asumos church? Even, to kill the Saintess? Do you think you can keep these things from me now?"

Xue Tianao? said coldly, the murderous intent in his eyes slowly overflowing at this moment,

Causing Bernard to tremble uncontrollably,

"What, what will you do to me "

"What I want to do hmmm? I've warned you about the consequences of betraying me and attacking my woman, my foolish little brother."

"Kill me? Don't joke around! Father won't, won't allow it! And, your woman?! Don't daydream! She's never been...?!!"

However,

Before Bernard could finish his sentence, the golden sword slashed across his neck.

Xue Tianao?! You!...

In an instant,

Blood splashed everywhere, Bernard's horrified and disbelieving head rolled onto the grass, and his consciousness suddenly plunged into boundless darkness...

Sheathing the golden sword,

Snow Pride's heart remained unfazed as if what he had killed was not his half-brother, but a worthless pig...

Looking at Bernard's headless corpse, Snow Pride mocked with a smile,

"Heh. You're actually right, my little brother. The Chosen One is indeed not my woman.... yet."

But,

That's just a matter of time,

After all, that girl is destined to be mine...
