She handed the entire pheasant, which was still wrapped in mud, to Sefiro. “The pheasant is ready. I’m sorry, but this is all I can find here in the mountains.”
It had been an exhausting day for Sefiro, and she couldn’t keep her eyes off that aromatic fowl. Of course she wouldn’t say no.
Thump!
Feng Wu crushed the hard mud shell.
The aroma immediately filled their nostrils.
Starving, Sefiro stuffed a piece into her mouth.
“Wow! This is so good!” It was so delicious that she thought she was going to bite her tongue off!
Sefiro hummed happily and was almost in tears. She even forgot about the prickly sensation on her neck.
Feng Wu then handed Six and Seven a roasted pheasant each.
After that, she picked one up herself, sat down by the tree, crushed the mud shell, and started wolfing the meat down.
Seven and Six were very wary after the way Feng Wu had tricked them.
They were indeed famished.
But safety was their top priority.
Only after seeing that Sefiro and “Catnine” were alright did they start eating.
Wow!
It really was scrumptious!
After the first bite, the two men couldn’t stop. They kept putting more into their mouths.
Feng Wu lowered her gaze and smiled.
Night set in and a heavy fog rose up.
The silver moon was pletely covered by thick clouds.
Suddenly, Seven clutched his stomach and his eyes widened.
He pointed from Feng Wu to Sefiro.
“It’s poisoned!” Seven’s face turned livid, and he went stiff. A chill ran down his spine.
Six realized it as well!
Seven jumped to his feet and pointed at Feng Wu. “You did this!”
He then charged at Feng Wu like a streak of lightning!
Meanwhile, Sefiro was still stuffing meat into her mouth. She was baffled when she saw the two men’s reactions. “What happened? What poison?”
However, at that moment —
Feng Wu kicked Seven away when he charged at her.
He knocked down a few trees as he rolled away.
Sefiro was speechless.
She bolted up and stared at Feng Wu in disbelief. “Catnine! What are you doing?!”
Meanwhile, Six charged at Feng Wu as well.
It put a lot of pressure on her.
Six was ranked higher than Seven, which meant that he was slightly more capable than the latter. Moreover, he had just made a breakthrough, so —
The poison was less effective on him.
Thump!
Feng Wu and Six exchanged a blow in mid-air.
While Feng Wu stumbled back, Six held his ground.
“Die!” Holding his sword, Six charged at Feng Wu.
Sefiro was dumbfounded.
She didn’t know how to react to what had just happened.
“Catnine, did you just poison them?”
Feng Wu was still Catnine in Sefiro’s eyes.
That was because —
Since Feng Wu had a chance to set Sefiro up, why not?
At that thought, Feng Wu said loudly, “Your Highness, these two men are up to no good! They have evil plans for you! They want to defile you! If I didn’t poison them, they would get what they want!”
