Watching the old general leaving, Nalan Zhangqian’s lips curved into a smile. At this time, all the enmity buried in his heart was like a passing cloud, vanishing without a trace.
As Nalan Zhangqian was still worried about Feng Ruqing he naturally no longer held onto her wrongdoings in the past. So long as Feng Ruqing had truly changed, he would let go of the past and move on.
Master Nalan rushed to the courtyard. He had even forgotten about the crutch that he had always carried with him wherever he went.
At the courtyard, a wide variety of spirit beasts standing in line that looked like a well-trained troop came into sight.
Seeing this, Master Nalan flew into a great panic and stopped moving. He simply did not know what had actually happened.
“Grandpa!” A familiar voice called out.
Master Nalan raised his head, the snow wolf graciously walked out from the herd of spirit beasts.
Feng Ruqing jumped off the snow wolf with Nalan Dai’er in her arms as she slowly walked toward Master Nalan.
“Grandpa, I’m sorry to have made you worried,” Feng Ruqing said gently with a faint smile on her face.
As Feng Ruqing wanted to get some spirit beasts to work for her, she thought that it was not a big deal if she could return on the same day. Little did she know that she had actually caused a stir in her family and had made them worried. It was, no doubt, her fault.
“It’s fine as long as you are back…” All the words that Master Nalan wanted to say had turned into tears. He wiped off the tears from the corners of his eyes as he spoke in a trembling voice.
Standing not far away from the courtyard, Nalan Zhangqian had initially wanted to rebuke Feng Ruqing. However, seeing that the courtyard was filled with spirit beasts, Nalan Zhangqian was dumbfounded.
“Your Highness, you robbed the beast court?”
Hearing Nalan Zhangqian, Feng Ruqing’s face darkened a few shades. Was she such a devil in the eyes of her own uncle? Why would she do that?
Howl!
The snow wolf was infuriated by Nalan Zhangqian’s remark as it was all its merit and had nothing to do with the bastards in the beast court. Not only did those bastards in the beast court caught the snow wolf, but they had also taken away its hard-earned merit. Apparently, these bastards are targeting the Divine-Spirit Fruit. The snow wolf would never let these bastards off easily.
The snow wolf was burning with murderous rage. Little did Nalan Zhangqian know that his words had actually put the beast court into deadly trouble—an irreconcilable enmity.
“Shut up! My granddaughter is not that kind of person!” Master Nalan turned to glare at Nalan Zhangqian.
Nalan Zhangqian did not utter a word.
Robbing the beast court was extremely normal. It was true that the old princess would definitely do that.
“Grandpa knows me best!” Feng Ruqing smiled.
“Uncle, these are the workers that I have just recruited today. They will work for me.”
Nalan Zhangqian was rendered speechless.
‘Feng Ruqing wants the spirit beasts to work for her? Does she want to make these spirit beasts her slaves?’
“I am paying them for their work.” Feng Ruqing could read Nalan Zhangqian’s mind. Her face darkened again.
‘Pay them? Do they know how to spend money?’ Stunned, Nalan Zhangqian glanced at the spirit beasts.
“Your Highness, did you deceive these spirit beasts to work for you? Please don’t do that. For the Nalan family, spirit beasts are of the same rank as human beings. You just can’t make them your slaves like what some of the people do out there,” Nalan Zhangqian said earnestly.
