"We are really unlucky. After finally finding a suitable Yin Nourishing Land, we only needed to wait two more years before the Yin Jade Marrow could mature, and then there would be a way to heal the sir’s injuries.
Who would’ve thought that the situation here was actually exposed by our little miss, and she even attracted people from the Special Administration Bureau.
Boss, do you think if the little miss knew she destroyed the sir’s dicine..."
The person at the front imdiately used the cane in his hand to lash out, evidently not holding back his strength.
"How dare you! The little miss is not soone you can slander. You must be tired of living!"
The person who got hit with the cane finally ca to his senses and realized he had actually voiced a slight dissatisfaction toward the little miss.
Instantly his face turned pale with fear, afraid of what would happen if the sir found out.
"Boss, I was wrong; I was just caught up in the conversation, not disrespecting the little miss..."
The leader swept his eyes over those behind him, his tone cold and stern.
"Know what to say and what not to say; it’s best you keep track of that. Otherwise, don’t bla for not being lenient!"
The crowd fell silent imdiately, evidently fearing punishnt.
When the Purification Array was activated, Baji, the Mountain Guardian of this mountain, quickly sensed it.
He clad himself in a fur cloak against the wind and snow and then rode his tiger, getting in touch with the two mbers of the Thunderbolt Team guarding the vicinity.
Recalling sothing, Baji took off the item Yun Ran had given him from around his neck and passed it to the two mbers.
"This was given to by that little girl from the Yun Family. The people coming down the mountain, are they from the Special Administration Bureau? Can I et the person in charge? I can lead them."
The two mbers of the Thunderbolt Team were sowhat surprised upon seeing the Token in Baji’s hand.
Clearly, they hadn’t expected Lady Yun to entrust such an important token to a stranger.
This token, under certain circumstances, could allow direct communication with higher authorities.
Their expressions suddenly beca much more serious: "Please wait a mont, I will report to Gu Chu right away."
The Purification Array Yun Ran provided was indeed useful, but it couldn’t cover the vast range here, and they were unfamiliar with this mountain range.
They could only start purifying from the outskirts bit by bit, which led to very low efficiency.
Gu Yuan was just about to send soone to venture into the mountain for purification when he received the report from the Thunderbolt Team mbers.
"You an there’s a Mountain Guardian living inside the mountain? And that Guardian, holding Elder Gong’s Token, wants to lead us?"
This was indeed a tily assistance for them.
"Imdiately send soone to contact this Mountain Guardian!"
His subordinate nodded and turned around, planning to arrange for soone to find Baji.
Suddenly, Gu Yuan’s voice ca from behind: "Wait, I’ll go myself. You take care of things here."
The subordinate looked surprised.
"But if you don’t stay to oversee things here..."
Gu Yuan followed the subordinate’s gaze, which led to several high-level officials from the Northeast Branch who seed to be busy, appearing as if they were trying to make ands.
But everyone clearly understood that these high-level officials were evidently performing for Gu Yuan.
After all, Gu Yuan wasn’t just the director of the General Office’s Operational Departnt but also a mber of the Gu Family—a man with real authority.
If Gu Yuan left, it was easy to guess what kind of funny business those high-level officials from the Northeast Branch might concoct.
"Ignore them; the matters before are tangled beyond repair, and the General Office can’t go back to settle old accounts.
But now, in a mission execution, if they defy orders even slightly, I have plenty of ways to deal with them!"
Upon hearing this, the subordinate was reassured; if Gu Chu wanted to deal with soone, he always found a way.
Soon, Gu Yuan took a team to find Baji.
The Death Energy and Evil Energy in the mountain were continuously absorbed by the Purification Array. The lynx nestled in Ginsengfruit’s embrace suddenly opened its eyes.
Before Ginsengfruit could even react, the lynx suddenly opened its mouth and bit Ginsengfruit.
Ginsengfruit: ...
Luckily, his body was crafted; if it were flesh, his hand would have been bitten off.
"You really lack gratitude! I gave you such precious Pills to eat like candy, and the first thing you do upon waking is bite !"
Ginsengfruit wasn’t truly angry, though his fondness for the lynx did drop several degrees.
"If you don’t want to be with us, then leave. Saving you before was just convenient anyway."
Not far away, the Thunder Group mbers setting up tents heard the commotion and quickly turned to look over.
They didn’t realize that this lynx was currently inhabited by the Mountain Spirit and thought that Lady Yun’s little disciple simply liked the sickly lynx.
Earlier they cherished it, carrying it everywhere and even feeding it; now, not long after, they were ’at odds’?
Particularly seeing the lynx placed on the snow, standing off against Ginsengfruit.
The Thunderbolt Team captain’s deanor instantly grew tense; these beasts weren’t easy to deal with.
Even though they had witnessed the Mountain Guardian riding a tiger around, Ginsengfruit was still just a child.
If they were injured by a beast under their watch, they couldn’t explain it to Lady Yun.
The captain imdiately tried to step outside the circle Ginsengfruit had drawn before, to prevent Ginsengfruit from being injured.
"Don’t co over! Don’t step out of that circle!"
Ginsengfruit didn’t even turn his head, but it was as if his back had eyes, sensing the captain’s movent.
His steps stalled thanks to Ginsengfruit’s words.
Only then did he rember that Lady Yun’s little disciple wasn’t just any ordinary person.
The Evil Energy and Death Energy here were overly dense and greatly affected them.
The talisman paper they brought was almost used up. If they couldn’t leave soon, they wouldn’t be able to withstand much longer.
Unexpectedly, Ginsengfruit drew a large circle, which intermittently emitted a faint blue glow.
Once they stepped inside the circle, the Death Energy and Evil Energy seed entirely cut off, unable to harm them.
The captain regained his focus, thought for a mont, then said, "If you need help, just let us know!"
Ginsengfruit was still facing off with the lynx inhabited by the Mountain Spirit but didn’t delay his reply, "I know."
After a long standoff, the lynx tilted its head and said: [Why can’t I form a bond with you?]
