Although Xiaosuisui’s appearance had changed, her voice had not.
Zhou Yanchen could still discern this.
He stared anxiously at Xiaosuisui, shouting loudly, "Suisui, you need to leave quickly! They are all bad people, don’t co close."
Upon hearing Zhou Yanchen’s words, Xiaosuisui started running towards the altar with her short legs.
"Brother Yanchen, don’t be afraid, I’m here to save you!"
At that mont, the Great Wizard was performing a ritual. The Lord Left Envoy could not possibly let Xiaosuisui disrupt the ceremony and hence stopped her in her tracks.
"Little girl, you better stay put here obediently; otherwise, you might lose your life here today."
The Lord Left Envoy threatened her while maintaining his handso countenance.
Xiaosuisui was just a four-and-a-half-year-old child. She didn’t understand the implications of his words.
"I’m here to bring Brother Yanchen ho. I said I will bring him ho!"
Xiaosuisui was persistent, lifting her foot to proceed towards the altar.
The Lord Left Envoy’s face suddenly turned stern, and he quickly grabbed a curved knife from a nearby soldier’s hand.
"Little girl, has nobody ever told you that disobedient people get sent to et King Yama?"
Xiaosuisui thought for a mont and said, "Nobody told that before, but now you have."
"So, you better behave. Otherwise, you will have to et King Yama."
Xiaosuisui halted. Tilting her head upwards, she looked at the Lord Left Envoy with large, blinking eyes and asked in confusion, "Who’s King Yama? Is he very powerful? Is he more powerful than the Great Wizard?"
The Lord Left Envoy: "..."
How challenging it was to communicate with a child!
Xiaosuisui continued walking towards the altar.
The blade of the Lord Left Envoy shot out, blocking her path.
Xiaosuisui blinked, turning to look at the Lord Left Envoy. "Big brother, are you going to et King Yama?"
The Lord Left Envoy: "?"
"Do you even understand what you’re saying, kid? If you infuriate , believe it or not, I will send you to et King Yama right away!"
Xiaosuisui blinked her eyes in confusion.
"Didn’t you say that those who disobey would be sent to see King Yama?"
Xiaosuisui thought to herself that she had clearly told this big brother that she intended to bring Brother Yanchen ho. Yet, this big brother was obstructing her. Wasn’t he also being disobedient?
The Lord Left Envoy could not possibly foresee such an interpretation. The ritual perford by the Great Wizard was on the verge of completion, and he was determined not to let a little brat spoil everything.
Therefore, a ruthless gleam appeared in his eyes. He lifted his hand, preparing to end the child’s life with one swift strike!
However, in the instant he raised his hand, a dart shot straight in from the northeast, targeting his wrist.
The Lord Left Envoy sensed the threat. His knife swiftly changed its direction, knocking down the dart while he glanced towards the northeast. To his surprise, it was an old beggar.
"An old beggar dares to ddle in the affairs of Nanjiang! Capture him!"
At the command of the Lord Left Envoy, a group of Nanjiang soldiers imdiately rushed towards the old beggar.
However, other soldiers, with incredible speed, threw off their Nanjiang armor, revealing civilian garnts of Great Han Country underneath.
The Lord Left Envoy was flustered. "People from the Central Plains! You... you are actually people from the Central Plains!"
People from the Central Plains appearing among the Nanjiang soldiers... this ans the Central Plains already knew about our plan! Hiding among our soldiers now, what exactly are they planning?
"You are correct, Lord Left Envoy!"
A man’s voice, soft as a breeze, ca from above. The people of Nanjiang were startled, and they all lifted their heads to look towards the sky.
