Chapter 93: Chapter 24 You Have Worked Hard
“Indeed, they are my and Changzhi’s attendants,” the princess said, lowering her eyes and looking at the crippled cultivators.
“Ah! Why are they in this state!” The Sixteenth Princess gritted her teeth as she saw her attendants in such a sorry state.
She was not angry at the people who crippled her attendants, but at her attendants for being so useless.
Although she looked very cute, her personality was far from it.
People in the imperial city said that the Sixteenth Princess was a little devil.
This little devil was only slightly more docile in front of the princess.
The princess turned to the Wolf General and asked in a deep voice, “Wolf General, why are they in this state?”
Although for her, a princess of the Lie Kingdom, cultivators in the Foundation Establishment stage were nothing, they were still her people.
“If I am not mistaken, they were crippled by another cultivator,” the Wolf General said calmly.
The princess, Lie Changshu, said in a subtle tone, “It seems that Wolf City is not very peaceful recently.”
“Princess,” the Wolf General did not respond to this topic, but instead asked, “Have you had any conflicts with a cultivator?”
“Hmm?” The princess raised an eyebrow, “Is this question important?”
“If the princess feels it’s presumptuous, you don’t have to answer.” General Wolf shook his head.
“Changzhi had a conflict with a practitioner staying at this inn.” The eldest princess didn’t think it was much of a secret, so she answered.
“That guy was staring! It’s already good that I didn’t gouge out his eyes!” The sixteenth princess naturally knew who her sister was talking about.
But this sixteenth princess didn’t think she was wrong at all; if there was a mistake, it was that He Youzhou was wrong.
“Changzhi.” The eldest princess called out to the sixteenth princess.
“Ugh, sister, I didn’t say anything wrong, it was that guy who was staring.” The sixteenth princess said aggrievedly, “That guy looked dirty, like a rogue.”
He Youzhou usually didn’t care about his appearance; his long hair hung down like seaweed, and others didn’t know what he looked like.
“Changzhi, stop it.” The eldest princess sensed something was wrong from General Wolf’s tone and gave her sister a slightly stern look.
The sixteenth princess wasn’t stupid; she knew when she could act spoiled and when she couldn’t.
When her sister was so serious, it was best for her to stand quietly to the side and not speak out of turn.
“General Wolf, can you tell me what exactly happened?” The eldest princess asked.
She originally thought a dangerous person had appeared in Wolf City, incapacitating her subordinates, but now it didn’t seem like that.
General Wolf’s words sounded more like the practitioner staying at the inn had incapacitated all her subordinates.
“I’m afraid even I am not a match for that practitioner, so please, princess, try not to provoke him.” General Wolf said.
The eldest princess said indifferently, “I am a princess, representing the royal family’s dignity. You want me to avoid a practitioner?”
Even if that practitioner was a disciple of some sect, it was impossible for her, the eldest princess, to avoid him.
“If it were an ordinary practitioner, I wouldn’t say anything, but his cultivation level is such that even I and all the guards behind me wouldn’t be able to match him.” General Wolf was very wary of the sword beside He Youzhou.
That’s right, General Wolf didn’t care about He Youzhou, but he couldn’t ignore that sword.
From the looks of it, that sword was probably equivalent to He Youzhou’s master or something, provoking He Youzhou was equivalent to provoking that sword.
He didn’t know what kind of powerful being resided in that sword, but for the sake of Wolf City, unless absolutely necessary, he didn’t want to become enemies with it.
“…” The eldest princess pondered for a long time.
General Wolf, a general who could guard the border of the Lie Kingdom for so long, was definitely trustworthy in terms of strength.
However, this general actually said that even with a group of guards, they couldn’t do anything to the other party.
“I understand, I won’t provoke him.” The eldest princess said expressionlessly, “Changzhi, remember not to provoke him either.”
“I didn’t!” The sixteenth princess said aggrievedly.
“Thank you, princess, for your understanding.” General Wolf’s biggest worry was that the two princesses wouldn’t back down. If they later provoked He Youzhou, General Wolf couldn’t guarantee he could save them.
If a princess had an accident in Wolf City, he would face the wrath of the Lie Kingdom’s royal family.
Besides repelling foreign enemies, there were many other things the lord of Wolf City had to consider.
“But I won’t allow him to provoke us either.” The eldest princess added.
No matter what, she represented the royal family’s dignity and couldn’t tolerate a practitioner challenging the royal family’s authority.
“This is natural. If he dares to provoke Your Highness, I will protect you with my life,” said General Wolf.
“These attendants can no longer protect Your Highness. Please allow me to accompany you during this time.”
The attendants by the two princesses’ sides were basically useless now, but it was impossible for the two of them to be without any bodyguards, so General Wolf took on the job himself.
“Thank you, General Wolf,” said the eldest princess. “I am a bit tired, I will return to my room first.”
“I am going back too!” The very unhappy sixteenth princess pouted and also went into her room.
Who knows who she would take her anger out on after returning to her room.
“Farewell, Princess,” General Wolf called out, and he and the guards behind him half-knelt.
After the eldest princess closed the door to her room, he began to instruct the guards to take the night watch.
After everything was finally arranged, he let out a long sigh and looked deeply at the princess’s room.
“What are you doing?” Before General Wolf could relax, He Youzhou’s voice made him tense up.
“Taoist, we meet again,” General Wolf said helplessly. “We are protecting the princess.”
“Ah, it’s nice to have so many people protecting you when you go out,” He Youzhou said sincerely.
Why didn’t he, such a big sect leader, have this kind of treatment? He was so envious.
“After all, she is a princess…” Lin Qingxue whispered to He Youzhou.
“That’s true,” He Youzhou nodded, half understanding.
“Good night then, Lord of Wolf City,” he said to General Wolf, then carried a paper bag of midnight snacks back to his room. “Everything should be done in moderation, this is my life experience.”
General Wolf felt speechless and didn’t want to think about who had caused him to be so tired now.
If He Youzhou hadn’t disabled all the attendants, he would only need to leave a few guards tonight and could leave.
But seeing the sword behind He Youzhou, he silently swallowed all the words in his heart.
