Up to this moment, the World Destruction Mercenaries had yet to return to their senses. They stared, completely tongue-tied, widening their eyes in astonishment.
This... What's going on?
How is the Beast King's attitude so vastly different from how it was before? He was even screaming bloody murder so fiercely a while ago, yet he switched to acting so petty and lowly in an instant? Besides, no one thought that this Beast King would actually recognize Gu Ruoyun, and acted so fearfully towards her?
Where on earth did this woman come from?
Uncle Ying's gaze was a mess of complication. He really never expected that the woman whom he had suspected would be the one who ultimately helped the World Destruction Mercenaries to escape this place...
"Servants, escort Lord Gu Ruoyun and the rest on their way out of Nemesis Forest."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe Beast King finally heaved a sigh of relief. He was really afraid that Gu Ruoyun would force him into telling her the truth. At the same time, he had made preparations to die before submitting to her wishes! In the end, she let him off just like that.
Hence, his eyes were filled with gratitude, aside from fear.
Actually, what he did not know was that Gu Ruoyun already had an answer in her heart. That was the reason why she did not force him to provide her with an answer.
Aside from that man, who else would silently help her in this way?
Even if he were not by her side, he would still be concerned over her safety.
To have him keep her company in this lifetime, what more could she ask for?
"Let's go."
Ye Ying returned to his senses, saw Gu Ruoyun and Xia Linyu who were now at a far-off distance, and quickly chased after them as well.
Standing behind them, the spiritual beast that had previously besieged them, were now like docile little cats following behind, escorting them out of Nemesis Forest.
"Lord Gu Ruoyun, have a pleasant journey. If you have the time, do not forget to come back to my Nemesis Forest as a guest. The spiritual beasts of Nemesis Forest are very friendly and have always had a very good relationship with humans. When that time comes, I'll raise the banners to welcome your arrival."
The Beast King remained standing in the same spot, waving his pink handkerchief, looking completely broken-hearted at her departure as if he were extremely reluctant for them to leave.
Pu tong!
The mercenaries nearly fell somersaulting onto the ground when they heard the Beast King's words.
Friendly?
We certainly haven't seen the aspect of friendliness in these spiritual beasts! Let's not forget, that a while ago, all of these spiritual beasts wanted to fiercely rip us to shreds! If it were not for Gu Ruoyun, we might all actually be dead by now!
Also, this guy, actually carries a pink handkerchief around with him?
Can you imagine a scene, with a hundred and fifty kilogram fatty, waving a pink handkerchief? Every time it crossed their minds, they would feel an urge to puke!
"F*ck. The humans have finally left!"
Once every shadow had disappeared from sight, the Beast King could not help but hit himself on the chest in an attempt to steady his terrified heart.
"I hope they never come again! Otherwise, with Nemesis Forest being so vast, I'm not the only Beast King around here! What if some blind little bastard ends up killing Lord Gu Ruoyun? By then, all the spiritual beasts of Nemesis Forest would not be enough for that person's melting pot."
The Beast King could not help but shiver at the thought. Then, he decided to have his little brothers carry a portrait of Gu Ruoyun, in order to avoid offending her!
...
In the outskirts of Nemesis Forest.
Ye Ying paused in his steps, then joined his fists and bowed towards the spiritual beasts that had escorted them. "Thank you very much for escorting us over the past few days." He exclaimed with gratitude. "Now, we've reached the outskirts of Nemesis Forest and will be able to leave this place very soon so you can leave us here now. Please return to your homes."
