Raising My Children With My Personal Spatial Ability

Chapter 1648: Chapter 1648: Don’t Want Your Hand Anymore?

“Understood,”

Zhan Beiye signified that he had understood—whatever the color, as long as it could save Xiang Qiyan, he had to procure it.

Looking up, he glanced at Su Tang who was directing the guards to slay demonic beasts. Observing the beasts fall swiftly to the ground, he walked over, and the two began to whisper among themselves.

An Jiuyue nodded, then raised her eyes to look at the demonic beasts being besieged.

As she raised her hand, the whip in her grip lashed out toward the demonic beasts. A crisp ‘snap’ resounded, and a powerful surge of demonic energy swept through the beasts.

In the next moment, those beasts that had been relentlessly attacking them suddenly scattered like birds and beasts, not a single one daring to remain.

The guards: “…”

Were they just here to add to the numbers? Just one whip and the demonic beasts fled; what use were they then? Was this some kind of joke?

Zhan Beiye’s gaze, filled with a hint of helplessness, turned back to the pair once more.

By acting this way, wouldn’t it really give the impression they were playing a fool’s game? He was truly at a loss for words….

“Let’s speed up our advance,”

said Qian Jiyun blandly, taking the lead with An Jiuyue to stride forward.

What they didn’t see was Gu Qingyu, who had been racking her brains trying to figure out how to approach Qian Jiyun. When she witnessed An Jiuyue’s move, her eyes suddenly widened in shock.

She had thought An Jiuyue was merely a frail woman, never expecting such a ferocious first move. The guards had fought so desperately and would have needed much longer, yet with just one lash from that woman, a multitude of demonic beasts were scared away.

“She… she…”

She trembled, pointing towards An Jiuyue’s retreating figure.

“Do you not want your hand anymore?” Zi Mo quickly pulled her hand back and sternly warned her.

They hadn’t previously seen An Jiuyue fight and thought she was just a well-protected woman, who at most, relied on having gained Qian Jiyun’s favor to be highly regarded by others.

But this display of power made it clear; it was nothing like what they had imagined.

“I…”

Gu Qingyu, her face filled with fright, glanced nervously at Zi Mo and dared not utter another word.

Internally, she heaved a sigh of relief, thankful that she hadn’t managed to put her thoughts into action, not having approached Qian Jiyun. Otherwise, her fate would have been more dire than merely scaring off a few demonic beasts.

At this moment, she no longer dared to set her sights on Qian Jiyun, her attention switched to focusing on Zhan Beiye.

Although this prince always heeded what Qian Jiyun said, he was still a prince, after all. If she could secure a connection with him, that would be acceptable.

After taking a few deep breaths to calm her mind, she began calculating how to win over Zhan Beiye. She thought, surely Zhan Beiye wasn’t as cold-blooded and merciless as Qian Jiyun, right?

At that moment, Zhan Beiye, who was preoccupied with moving forward, had no idea that An Jiuyue’s mere show of power had effectively deterred Gu Qingyu from any reckless actions.

In reality, An Jiuyue could have easily let Qian Jiyun take action, but she was fed up with the calculating and eager eyes that had been watching her and Qian Jiyun. She couldn’t stand it any longer.

Since they hadn’t directly provoked her first, she might as well kill the chicken to warn the monkey.

So, she executed that lash with the whip to send a message to Gu Qingyu—to show her that plotting against her wouldn’t be easy and that she should quickly dismiss any such notions.
