Venerated Venomous Consort

While squatting, she tried to come up with an excuse to delay Gu Xijiu so that she could find a way to report to her master. With that in mind, she tripped and fell toward a big stone next to her.

She wanted to hurt herself, and it would be even better if there were signs that it could lead to a miscarriage so that they could go straight back to Tianju Hall. However, before she started rolling toward the stone, she had been caught by Gu Xijiu, who had teleported over. She did not hurt herself at all.

The imposter secretly gritted her teeth, but she had to look grateful on the surface. “Thank you, Xijiu. Thank you very much.” In her heart, she was also wondering if Gu Xijiu had been staring at her the entire time. Had she been exposed?

Gu Xijiu patted her on the shoulder and asked, “How can you be so careless?”

“Foot… My foot was numb.”

“Do you want me to give you a massage?” Gu Xijiu still showed that she cared about her.

“No… No, I’m good now.” Lan Waihu did not dare to let her touch her foot. Otherwise, her lie would be exposed too.

Gu Xijiu sighed and could only advise her, “You have to be more careful.”

After that, they walked back over to Yan Chen. “Yan Chen, she is pregnant now. It is not very convenient for her to be alone. She almost fell and bumped into a big stone. Please look after her at all times. Do not leave her side.”

Yan Chen’s facial expression changed. He quickly placed his arms on Lan Waihu and said, “Rest assured, Waihu. I will always stay by your side.”

Lan Waihu remained silent but felt extremely bitter about recent events. At first, Yan Chen had given her space and did not even know what she was up to. Now, he was going to be inseparable from her. Perhaps, she might not have a chance to contact her boss anymore.

The technology that belonged to the Blue Fox planet was superb. However, it did not have things like a ‘wizardry barrier.’ Gu Xijiu could tell that the wizardry barrier set up at the Blue Fox base was put in place by Lan Yue and his great elders.

It was an extraordinary kind of barrier; only a few people could unlock it. Lan Waihu, as the high priest of the Blue Fox family, was one of the few people who was capable enough to do so. Both Gu Xijiu and Yan Chen had seen her open the wizardry barrier here, and it had not changed since the last time. Therefore, ‘Lan Waihu’ could not pretend that she did not know how to do it.

Under intense observation from Gu Xijiu, she had to open it with a bitter heart. She just hoped that there would be new defense facilities in the barrier so that when they entered the inside, the mechanisms could detect the intrusion.

However, things did not seem to be going in the imposter’s favor. The three of them had entered the base for 15 minutes, and the people inside still did not notice them. They were either sleeping or drinking or playing cards around the place.

Meanwhile, the soldiers that actually patrolled the area were like blind men. Although the three of them clearly walked passed them, they did not notice them at all.

It was rather annoying for ‘Lan Waihu’ as she recalled that the guards had proudly claimed that they could even identify the gender of a mosquito if it passed them. “Useless idiots!” Lan Waihu cursed in her heart. She wanted to make a move to get their attention, but Yan Chen was very close to her at all times. It would be too suspicious.

Although there were various infrared scanners in this base, Gu Xijiu had created some special protection over the three of them that could keep them under the radar. Hence, they could really come and go as they liked.

The only thing that ‘Lan Waihu’ had going for her now was the fact that Gu Xijiu had not done anything damaging. They just wandered around, which made Lan Waihu extremely nervous the entire time.
