Chapter 784: Bait
“So garrulous.” Qiao Mu glared at Second Young Master Dou. “As their eldest senior brother, you don’t know to restrain your juniors from having the gall to offend the crown prince consort. Simply unfathomable.”
Everyone: “…”
“How many of your fellow disciples can make themselves useful? Have them step out!”
Second Dou: …Why did I feel that this crown prince consort was kinda cute? She spoke so straight to the point that it was kind of odd.
“Of the crown prince consort’s royal guards, those with the guts to confront the zombie army, step out!”
Rustle! The group of Hidden Night Pavilion members, in addition to more than a hundred hidden guards concealed in the darkness, simultaneously jumped out. Their movements were especially uniform.
“Do you see! This is the difference between us!” The crown prince consort emphatically rolled her eyes at the people from the Celestial Medicine Valley.
Lin Yongyi and his men were left at a loss for words, and when they turned to look at the crown prince, they saw him still holding his forehead but trying his best to stifle his laughter.
“Cough.” Huifeng coughed lightly to prompt the crown prince.
Crown Prince Mo walked up with a grin and held Qiao Mu’s small hand, saying, “That’s right, that’s right. Do you see? The crown prince consort has several hundred subordinates that are willing to risk life and limb and confront the zombie army for her! You guys don’t have people, so it’s only natural that you go to the frontlines yourselves!”
That’s right, none of these morons from the Celestial Medicine Valley comprehended her words. That’s what she meant. She had money and manpower, so why couldn’t she first catch up on sleep so that she’ll be more at ease?
Why the heck did she have to force her super sleepy self to fight with the zombies over there! Was she a fool?
Only the crown prince comprehended her meaning. These bunch of idiots! She was disinclined to bicker with them anymore!
“Qiaoqiao, I’ll send you back to your room to sleep.” His darling must be super duper sleepy. But her imperious little appearance was still so cute all the same!
Yup, didn’t these blind plebs know that his darling was currently in her growing period! If she didn’t grow properly, how could that do!
The crown prince carried Qiao Mu back to her room and tucked her in, before bringing people back to the city gate tower.
Half a kilometer away from Beilan City, several prisoners’ carriages were madly accelerating forwards. Each prisoners’ carriage detained five to six people of both genders and all ages, and all of them were screaming incessantly in panic.
It was two huge hyenas, and not horses, that were pulling each prisoners’ carriage.
These hyenas’ running speeds were much faster than horses. It was only that they ran extremely ferociously, and the prisoners’ carriages jolted so much that several of the people inside retched.
At the beginning, there were around a dozen of these prisoners’ carriages, but by the time they fled to Beilan City’s city gate, only four to five carriages remained.
The others had flipped over midway, and the people inside were brutally torn apart and eaten by the pursuing zombies!
Even until now, these prisoners felt as if they were in a dream!
Originally, they were locked up in prison, but for some unknown reason, they found themselves on a fleeing prisoners’ carriage when they opened their eyes, with a large horde of zombies hot on their tail.
Before long, they were getting closer and closer to Beilan City’s city gate!
They shouted at the top of their lungs, crying for help while waving their arms vigorously at the black mass of people on top of the city gate tower.
They didn’t want to die! They hoped to be locked up in prison again.
Even if they were to eat pig feed every day while serving their many years in prison, it was better than inexplicably being torn apart and eaten by these zombies!
“Your Highness.” Second Young Master Dou walked up next to Mo Lian and said quietly, “I saw them on the way here. These people seem to be beasts’ bait! If this one’s guess isn’t wrong, someone had deliberately led them to Beilan City.”
