Beneficial Union: Chasing A Rogue Wife

Chapter 444: Reliable or Not

"The feeling, that I cannot do anything against it even if I try so hard," Gao Lan Mei continued truthfully, "I myself not sure anymore if we can get out from here. That is why I want us to have more advantage, even if I do not know what is really going on."

From the time Gao Lan Mei saw the black smoke outside the Shizi Empire, she already knows that they are going to fight beings that are more than can handle.

She did her best to expand her devour to the point even consuming impurities and externally transfer it to the other cultivators so that she can help them save themselves once they increase ranks.

These cultivators were also cleansing by the purification stone that she also used to collect enough spiritual energy to create the protective barrier.

Then why is it that all the plans that they made are not enough?

Where is the help that they are waiting for?

Is one hindering all their means of survival are the YinYings or something else entirely? Gao Lan Mei can only consider these possibilities.

Yen Mingjue does not care about anything else aside from Gao Lan Mei and Xiao Shi. He is so used to the cycle of life and death to be bothered by it.

For him though, hearing that Gao Lan Mei sounding so helpless is ironic. Because of that, he is not sure if she is making things up or what. After all, Gao Lan Mei even has the guts to intentionally break the natural order of things because she wants to be free.

If she died in Shizi Empire without enjoying her freedom to the fullest, what will the stingy gods do by then? Allow her to petition to court? 'Heh, that would be very entertaining.' He realized enjoyingly.

Yen Mingjue is more concerned about being reprimanded later due to his somewhat personal involvement to mortals. Though he will never plead guilty. Never!

"Ms. Gao? Are you saying that we cannot leave the Shizi Empire alive?!" One of the Liqi Clan members exclaimed loudly, completely ignoring how delicate Sung Zhi Ruo's situation.

Gao Lan Mei hissed before speaking, "Make him shut up or I will do it." She said dangerously. Which the other Liqi Clan member jumps to cover the man's mouth as they cautiously look at the hound and the mirror next to it.

Just a moment ago, Gao Lan Mei made sure to tell them that they need all advantage that can get.

As far as Gao Lan Mei remembers, she was cautious enough when speaking so that even if Sung Zhi Ruo can clearly hear her, the woman will not lose her concentration.

Suddenly a stupid being shouted to make sure he is heard. It is just a good thing that Sung Zhi Ruo was concentrating enough to not be bothered by the tiny inconvenience.

Not that Sung Zhi Ruo still has time to worry about others when she has a very difficult task. With the beads of sweat running down her pale face, it only means that refining the Soul Eater is something easier said than done.

"Did I ever say we do not have a chance?" She asked them, voice laced with annoyance, but still soft enough to not disturb the being that she does not want to lose concentration.

Aside from that Ma Fei Hong is still healing her mortal body, so it is not a good idea to also bother the deacon.

Before anyone from the Liqi clan was able to answer her, "Brother Jue, did I confirm that?" she asked instead.

Yen Mingjue replied casually, "You never did, but it gives that impression though. So it is technically your fault."

"Ah, really? You should not make things up."

Yen Mingjue snorted, "Nah, not making things up. Admit it. You were never good at telling bad news. See it is even a bad time. In the future, if you are able to survive to make sure to think of these things carefully." He reminded like a big brother giving earnest advice.

"What do you mean it? Do you not trust me that I can survive here?" Gao Lan Mei asked somewhat doubtful. "I am confident in saving myself, but I do not know with the others."

Gao Lan Mei is aware that the reaction of the receiver of the bad news will differ depending on the tone that is the reason why she spoke softly earlier.

A bad new will, regardless when one says it, it will not change anything. Now, Gao Lan Mei keeps on spouting statements that give the others a negative idea. The thought of not surviving.

"That is a very good question." Yen Mingjue responded nonchalantly. "Do not worry, since all of you fought with this prince, I will make sure to give you special treatment when you arrive at the Underworld." He assured confidently to those that can hear.

"" Are they supposed to be happy or its best to just cry?

'Your Highness, please spare us. We want to live!' Most of the other's thought.

Most of them are in disbelief as the two are talking so casually like they are not a very dire situation. In the end, none of them can confirm if the two are reliable or not.

Earlier Gao Lan Mei's worried voice made them anxious but still grateful for her saving them first instead of just leaving the Shizi Empire before things got out of hand.

Now though, how can they still say the same?

The two continued to bicker, like 'how to deliver bad news is the only thing that worries them. What about the action so that they can do something about that this bad news?

They cannot complain even if they want to cry in annoyance and the only thing that can do is to listen silently
