587: Taking a Trip Out of the City

Jier shrugged. When it came to those two, he had no clue. He was helpless when it came to Feng Wu’s contracted spirit and beast.[notes]

If they were his contracted entities, he would definitely let them know how a contracted beast or spirit was supposed to behave. Disobedient? Haha. Jier sneered. If they dared to not listen, he would hit them until they became obedient.

Lydia, who was practicing in a place with strong yin energy, suddenly felt a cold chill. She touched her neck. What was going on? She had a spirit body, why did she suddenly feel cold? Illogical!

Rui Baby was sleeping in a small nest in the spirit world eating fresh fruits and enjoying the beautiful scenery when he suddenly sneezed. “Achoo!” Strange. Who was scolding him behind his back? Just wait for this baby to figure out who. . .

“Isn’t Little White good? Little White wouldn’t leave Xiao Ye’s side. Don’t forget Little White is a Shengmu that specializes in taking care of children.”

Everyone on the continent knew how much Shengmu beasts loved children. In fact, Shengmu beasts often took better care of children than their own biological parents did. There was no way the Shengmu beast would have stood idle while Little Bun was being kidnapped.

After discussing for a long time, everyone believed it was a letter from Little White.

But that begged the question, when did the Shengmu beast have such a powerful skill, to be able to deliver a letter while avoiding so many people on campus. Was Little White so powerful?

Even though the Shengmu beasts weren’t the worst soldiers to have in war, they weren’t good either. They weren’t good at hiding and weren’t fast.

If it was really Little White, how did it evade so many eyes and manage to deliver the note?

Meanwhile, as Jier was discussing this with everyone, Little Bun was being transferred to a new location.

Feng Yi didn’t know what they smeared on Little Bun’s head, but his hair matched his black eyes and now he looked like a child from the ancient eastern countries.

Hua Jin had her maid feed Little Bun sleeping pills to keep him from talking on the trip.

A pity though, she didn’t know Little Bun’s body was filled with pure elf blood which made him completely immune to harmful drugs.

Little Bun pretended to fall asleep while Feng Yi arranged for a couple of eastern descent with black hair and eyes to take Little Bun away overnight out of Zhongyang.

To avoid attracting attention, they opted to travel by ordinary cargo ship instead of using a teleportation array.

The couple came from the Hound mercenary group. In order to make things look more realistic, they even brought another little boy along with them. They borrowed the little boy, who was about five years old, from his parents for a fee. They had paid more than half the deposit upfront too.

“Mom, is brother still sleeping? When will he wake up and play with me?” The little boy tugged at the pretty black-haired woman beside him cutely.

The little boy was very clever and instantly fell into character. No wonder he could help his parents make money at such a young age.

“Your brother is still too little. He’ll be sleeping a lot. You’ll have to be good and not wake him up OK?” The dark-haired woman’s face was filled with maternal glow. If she didn’t know she wasn’t the mother of these kids, she would have been fooled.

Her acting was so good! It was the opera house’s loss for not accepting her back then.

The other passengers on the boat all laughed heartily as they watched the scene of the loving mother and her young child.

The dark-haired woman acted flawlessly and didn’t reveal any telltale signs when talking about motherhood with the other women on board.

It wasn’t until they returned to their private cabin that they dropped the image. The woman lost her motherly charm and the father lost his strict face.

“The business that the boss took is too strange. Having us pick up this little brat. Where did the kid even come from? Could he be the son of some big shot?” The woman sat on the edge of the bed Little Bun was on.

The other kid didn’t care what they were talking about and started eating as soon as they walked through the door.

“Who knows. We’re just doing what we’re told. Who cares who this brat belongs to.” The man found a roast chicken from his space storage and began eating without even bothering to wash his hands.

It wasn’t satisfying to eat roasted chicken by itself so he got a glass of beer on the side as well.

The cabin instantly filled with the aroma of roasted meat and beer.

“That’s right. After the kid is delivered, we’ll take the money and leave. A new set of magic equipment was put up for sale a bit ago. I can buy it once we get paid.” The woman smiled happily when she thought about the new equipment she had been admiring.

“It just so happens that I’ve also taken a fancy to a new sword. Maybe we can get a discount from the shop boss if we go together.”

“Then let’s do that. We’ll go together when the time comes. Plus, there’s always the old tried and true beauty trick. I don’t believe the boss won’t give us a little discount at least. . . ”

The couple chatted as they ate, completely ignoring the two kids in the room.

The five year old looked like he was used to it. He chewed his food indifferently. The couple had a little bit of conscience, so they shared a couple of wings with him while they ate the larger drum sticks.

Xiao Ye pretended to be asleep as he listened in on their conversation. Where were they taking him? Were these bad guys trying to ruin him? Weren’t they trying to use him to deal with his mother? No matter what they planned, it was wrong to lie to children. Don’t think that just because children were young they could be fooled. . .
