Quick Wear: This Cannon Fodder is Delicate and Expensive

Chapter 229 The Legend of the Blood Tribe

For a moment, the already quiet hall became even more silent.

"Your Highness, since the new king himself has no objection, then my clan will certainly welcome it. Wouldn't it be wonderful if the two clans could get married?" Telles stepped forward and broke the silence.

Shi Qi's eyes turned slightly, as if waiting for the opinions of his tribesmen.

"Yes, Your Highness. During the battle that day, the werewolves spared no effort in using illusions to help our tribe overcome the difficulties. Now that the new king has come from afar, it would not be appropriate for him to return immediately. It would be better for him to stay for a few more days, which is also a way of hospitality." Another earl of a high status stood up and said respectfully.

When Uncle Li heard this, his eyes changed slightly and his pupil color darkened.

Werewolf illusion?

How could the vampires have the illusion skills of the werewolves? Could it be... there is a spy?

If that's the case... then I really need to stay and investigate.

After a long while, Uncle Li raised his eyes and looked at the man beside him with starry eyes and a face full of expectation. He sighed softly, "That's fine, but I hope Your Highness will allow me to accompany and take care of the new king."

Shi Qi was speechless for a moment when he saw the change in Li Bo's expression.

In fact, there was no need to suspect that there were spies. After all, that illusion... was the result of her diligent study all night.

But it was just right, the internal strife among the werewolves...she really wanted to see it.

"Okay." Shi Qi said calmly, with dignity in his voice.

After the banquet, the castle returned to its former tranquility.

Yin Su was taken to the side hall. Perhaps he was tired after a long day, so he went to bed early.

On the contrary, the lights in Ling Li's house were still on.

The man gently untied his bow tie and threw it on the bed, with his head slightly lowered, feeling a little depressed.

Thinking of the expectant look of the woman in the hall, I was puzzled for a moment.

What is she...hoping for?

But she is the supreme king of the vampire race, how could she... ask anything of me?

He checked many places these days, but there was no news about the bloodstain.

Where is that thing...?

The clan’s greatest treasure...where is it?

He hasn't been back for so many days, will Xiaoyu get into trouble alone?

The faucet in the bathroom was not tightened, and the sound of water dripping was heard regularly, falling on the tiles with a crisp sound.

The man on the bed stood up straight, looking out the window, his handsome brows furrowed even tighter.

No sleep for one night.

……

Ding family.

Ding Che was dressed in a black robe, listening to the report from his servants.

But the next second, hearing the servant's words, Ding Che almost crushed the cup in his hand.

"What? The person you asked to send didn't go? How did you do your job! Don't you know Xiaoyu is still sick? Ling Li has been arrested for so many days, and Xiaoyu..."

"Master, the master said that Ling Li did not do his job well and should be severely punished, so..."

"You!!! What does that have to do with the child? Come with me and take a look!" Ding Che was furious. He flicked his sleeves and quickly rushed out of the room.

They watched Xiaoyu grow up. He was a five or six-year-old boy who was abandoned and very weak. Now there was no one to take care of him...

Ding Che quickened his pace, fearing that something might happen to the little boy.

……

Outside the remote wooden house, the grass was green and the sunlight shone through the leaves, falling on the roof and on the cheek of the sleeping woman inside.

As if awakened by the sunlight, the woman beside the bed rubbed her sore arms, looking sleepy.

She gently placed her slender fingers on the boy's forehead and felt his normal body temperature, then she breathed a sigh of relief.

She had just come to this world and her first mission was to capture Ling Li. However, the system reminded her that there were other missionaries.

I haven’t encountered any yet, and I don’t know if there will be any conflicts between their tasks.

However, this is her primary world, and the identity given to her by the system is very convenient.

Ling Li’s future wife——Lan Xiao.

But she didn't understand why they still needed a strategy when they were already husband and wife.

Later she found out that Ling Li and Lan Xiao got married just so that someone could take care of Xiaoyu.

In addition, now that Ling Li’s personal consciousness has awakened, her strategy mission... is still a bit difficult.

Just two days ago, she came across a child who had fainted outside the wooden house.

Then I heard the system prompt.

Xiaoyu——the younger brother that Ling Li takes care of.

The little boy looked about five or six years old. His face was flushed red. It was unknown how long he had been lying on the ground. His body was stiff.

If she had come a little later, the consequences would have been disastrous.

Fortunately, the fever has subsided now, so her hard work over the past two days has not been in vain.

"Hey, Ling Li is so heartless that he actually let you, a child, stay in this remote place." The woman's voice was light, ethereal and gentle.

"System, you really can't find Ling Li's location?" the woman asked helplessly.

"It should be the mutual repulsion between systems. I can't sense anything outside the human race, the witch race and the werewolf race. If I guess correctly, Ling Li is in the blood clan, the territory of another tasker. That system is more powerful than me, and I can't survey deeper." A mechanical voice sounded, without a trace of emotion.

The woman sighed and held up her face, "If we have the same mission and I fail, will I be... wiped out?"

"Of course." Another cold mechanical voice.

"..." Didn't she just stay up late to watch Yan Cheng and Shi Qi's sweet variety show? How could she die suddenly? I'm speechless...

The girl shook her head, tied her hair up, and chose to go and boil medicine.

When Ding Che arrived breathlessly, this was the scene he saw.

A girl with pigtails and a white dress was holding a bowl of black juice and was about to feed it to the weak child on the bed. Her expression looked like that of a vicious stepmother.

For a moment, Ding Che's heart was filled with alarm.

"Wait! Who are you? What...are you going to do to a child?" Although he was anxious, Ding Che's tone was still gentle and he looked well-mannered.

The woman was slightly stunned, turned around, and said softly: "Excuse me...are you the child's brother?"

"I was just passing by and saw the child fainted at the door due to fever, so I gave him some medicine to save his life."

Ding Che was stunned, then his expression eased a little: "Sorry girl, I was a little anxious. Are you saying... Xiaoyu fainted outside?"

Ding Che stepped forward and looked at the still weak little man on the bed, feeling extremely remorseful.

He has been busy dealing with clan affairs these days and has not come for several days. He asked the servants to take care of him, but they turned a deaf ear to his words.

Fortunately, Xiaoyu is fine. If Xiaoyu had been in trouble, he and Ling Li would have blamed themselves for the rest of their lives...

"More girls, come to my rescue. If necessary, I will help." Ding Che took a step back, his handsome face full of sincerity.

The woman raised her head slightly and said seriously, "Excuse me, who are you?"

"Ah, I'm Ding Che." The man introduced.

The girl breathed a sigh of relief.

Phew, it’s the male lead, luckily it’s not Ling Li.

This look... is totally not her choice...

"Yeah, you just said I needed help...will you help?" The girl raised her eyes and said seriously.

"correct."

"Then may I ask... do you know where Ling Li is?" The woman's eyes sparkled.

Ding Che was stunned, as if he had not expected a girl to ask this.

"Excuse me, are you...?"

The woman was stunned for a moment, then her eyes lit up: "Ah, hello, I'm Lan Xiao, his fiancée."

"?"

It was quiet for a moment, with rustling shadows of trees and bright sunshine.

It’s just that... Ding Che didn’t think it was very good.

……

Inside the castle.

Shi Qi was still catching up on his sleep in the coffin when he heard Tu Tu sigh.

"Host, this is not good."

"..." The only response was the sound of shallow breathing.

"Host, special circumstances, this world has been invaded by external taskers."

"..." In response, Shi Qi turned over.

"Host! I said the situation is not good! There are other taskers!!! I don't know if they are enemies or friends!"

“…Hiccup~” This time, what responded to it was not only the sound of breathing and turning over, but also a burp.

Tutu: "..."

"Host, the roast goose is missing a leg." Tutu sighed and decided to try a different approach.

Sure enough, there was a rustling sound in the coffin.

The next second, the woman blinked sleepily, "Hmm? Where's the goose leg?"

Tutu: "..."

Shi Qi calmed down and realized that there was something important: "Well, what I mean is, where is the tasker?"

"In the human race, my name is Lan Xiao. Do you want to know why I know this? You must want to know, right?"

Shi Qi:......

No, I don't want to at all.

"Haha, because my level is higher than its, isn't that awesome?" Baldy shook his head, seeking praise.

"Awesome, really awesome. There are actually systems with lower levels than yours." Shi Qi praised seriously.

Bald: "..."

"Your tasks do not conflict, but they are both related to Ling Li. You should meet each other if you have a chance." Bald Man said.

Shi Qi nodded: "That's a win-win cooperation. By the way, I always feel like I have an appointment today."

Weird, she's older?

Why do I feel like I forgot something after a good night's sleep?

"Oh, you mean the last time you turned into a little girl? It's this evening, they should be waiting for you." Bald explained.

Shi Qi rubbed his temples, wondering: "Who needs me to meet him in person?"

"Ding Che Shangguan Qing, it's okay if the host doesn't want to go. Hey, host, where are you going?" Before the bald man could finish his words, he saw the woman on the bed had already jumped from the coffin to the door.

Shi Qi looked indifferent and arrogant, and said calmly: "What are you standing there for? Hurry up and catch up. How can we let our ancestors wait for us?"

That is her human amulet, her 24k gold thigh!

She couldn't bear to live a day like this, collecting bird poop and being pecked by chickens...

Bald: Could this be... using the most elegant posture to say the most cowardly words?
