Chapter 1093: Chapter 765: I Want Them to Pay in Blood (Part 2)

”They’ve left, and the Capital City is in turmoil. We’ve received news from those left behind, and the task is accomplished!” the man reported respectfully.

”Haha...” The woman chuckled softly upon hearing the words. ”With such a large bargaining chip, what do I have to worry about? My wish will surely be fulfilled, and the Wolf King will also have his wish fulfilled. This is indeed a happy event, a joyous occasion!”

”Yes! Miss is wise!”

”It’s not my wisdom, but the previous arrangements of the Wolf King were proper. I never expected that even within the Great Zhou Imperial Family, there would be people from my Sand Sea. This way, we can achieve more with less effort.”

”Yes!”

”Alright, let’s just follow behind them and see how many more people are eager to die, watching them step by step into their demise!”

”Yes!”

”...”

The two of them spoke and then disappeared into the woods on both sides of the road, leaving no trace.

The sun hung high, and Liaodong of the Northern Country wasn’t as hot as the Southern Country and Great Zhou. The climate was pleasant, just a bit drier than the south.

Meanwhile, in a city on the southern border of Liaodong, a spacious carriage sped on. The dignified Dowager Empress Xiao of the Southern Country had astonishingly transformed into an ordinary old woman and became the coachman!

The curtain of the carriage was lifted by a small hand, revealing a little head inside.

The little bun looked at the back of Dowager Empress Xiao with a face full of grievance, ”Granny Xiao, is it not in this city either?”

”No, the undercover pawns of the Liaodong Royal Family here have not found their traces.” Dowager Empress Xiao replied while driving the carriage without pause.

”Then how are we supposed to find mother, having run all this way and stayed in this carriage? Granny Xiao, my little bottom is about to fall apart!” The little bun’s voice became more aggrieved, and it seemed on the verge of tears.

They had left the Capital City several days ago, and without a stop, rushed straight to Liaodong. Within the Great Zhou Territory, they dared not even get off the carriage for fear of being discovered by the people searching for them.

Four little kids were lost, but this time the search on the side of Great Zhou wasn’t as high-profile, likely considering their youth and fearing they might fall into the hands of those with ill intentions.

Now having reached Liaodong, they could finally breathe a little easier, but still dared not let their guard down. After all, among the once Four Kingdoms, there were undercover agents everywhere. If discovered by the grandfathers, it would surely mean trouble!

”There are eight layers of cushions in the carriage, you four little radish heads can roll around in there without a problem, you won’t be bumped!” Dowager Empress Xiao amusedly looked back, casting a glance at the little one protesting, ”I, an old bag of bones am chauffeuring you without complaints, and you dare to complain? It’s you who wanted to find your mother, so calm down!”

”...Alright!” The little bun pouted with chubby lips and spoke,

then, in a pleasing manner, pulled out a water bladder from the carriage and said with a look of obedience, ”Granny, have some water.”

”Yaoyao is such a good girl!” Dowager Empress Xiao took a few sips from the water bladder, and, satisfied, turned around and ruffled the little bun’s head, showing a gratified smile on her wrinkled face, ”Yaoyao, don’t worry. I’ve already had the undercover pawns spread the message throughout Liaodong, surely there will be news soon.”

She had lived this long and embarked on soul-seeking quests multiple times, but had never brought so many young children along. Even her own offspring hadn’t been like this. Thankfully, these little ones were well-behaved and likable, evoking a deep, genuine affection from her.

”Granny, especially those fun and tasty places. My mother loves them, and Uncle Wood must be indulging her, picking only those directions!” The little bun sniffled and wheezed.

”Hm, you go stay in the carriage, the horse is fast, don’t catch a cold in the wind.”

”Okay, Granny Xiao.” The little bun nodded, pulling its head back inside.

Immediately, the chatter of four little kids could be heard inside the carriage.

”Why look for fun and tasty places?”

”Because my mother is playful and a foodie!”

”You dare speak of the Witch Lord like that? When we find the Witch Lord, I’ll be sure to tell her!”

”My mother is not ashamed of this but proud. She says being able to eat is a blessing, and being able to play is a fortune. Many people can only dream of being carefree and wandering the world!”

”But what about your mother’s status? She’s destined not to roam the world in style you know!”

”How could it be? My mother says if your skills are deep, you can grind an iron rod into a needle. She doesn’t need to grind needles, just needs to refine Uncle Wood. Relying on a man, she can live free and easy!”

”Your mother has a wild imagination! I’ve never seen such an irresponsible servant, so many things she just threw away and ran off, making the whole family a mess, have you forgotten?” Wuchang Yue said, her face puffed up in anger, looking at the little one with bright big eyes filled with disapproval.

She had served as the Witch Lord before and knew how tiring it was, so many things to be busy with every day, yet the Southern Emperor, being the Emperor of the Southern Country, was even more relaxed than her, which made her very uncomfortable!

Especially since she thought there would be fun once she followed them out, but now she could only hide in the carriage and couldn’t go anywhere. She could only view the scenery of the Northern Country through the window, which made her even more unhappy.

”My mom says, ’Trust your help, or don’t use them. A good leader doesn’t need to do everything themselves; they just need to set a clear path and make good decisions!’ The little bun said proudly hugging a big soft pillow, bouncing little legs. ”Besides, my mom said, she’ll have even more leisure in the future, everything will be up to Uncle Wood! Wahahaha...”

”Your mom!” Wuchang Yue heard this and was speechless, she could only pick up a book and start reading.

”Dear bride, my mom says, learning from books also relies on talent, and it’s clear you’re not too talented in this matter, your book learning is terrible!”

”Then did your mom say you can’t beat me?” Wuchang Yue heard this, threw the book aside, and lunged at the little bun.
