Venerated Venomous Consort

“Liar!” The imposter secretly whispered. The Lan Waihu imposter had continuously been berated by her master for feeding him incorrect information about their planned visit. It was driving him and the troops crazy.

“Xijiu, I don’t feel very well today. Can we go tomorrow?” ‘Lan Waihu’ did not want to do this useless work anymore. Not going at all was better than pretending to go but not actually ending up there.

“You’re not feeling well? Where does it hurt? Come, let me check on you.” Gu Xijiu sat next to her and touched her wrist.

‘Lan Waihu’ was speechless. She forgot that Gu Xijiu was an expert physician! Pretending to be sick would definitely lead to intense questioning, so ‘Lan Waihu’ quickly pulled her hand away. “I think I have overeaten; so, I feel very bloated. Perhaps, walking might improve my digestion, so maybe we should go out. Where are we going today?”

“The base of the Blue Fox family.”

“Are you going to do something else first?”

“I don’t think so.”

“Ah?”

“As long as no one suddenly starts looking for me in the middle of our journey, I will not take any detours today.” Gu Xijiu promised.

Nonetheless, her promises did not mean much to ‘Lan Waihu’ anymore. During their last few trips, Gu Xijiu had claimed to receive directed audio messages that required her immediate attention. She would then disappear for the entire day. She had used the same excuse about four times already.

‘Lan Waihu’ cursed Gu Xijiu in her heart. There was nothing that she could do besides adhering to her requests. After all, she was the Lord, a person who could make the earth tremble with a single stomp on the ground. She could not afford to reject her.

She could not help but look at Yan Chen for some kind of assurance. Yan Chen was expressionless, but he straightened his shirt and said, “Waihu, go and tidy up yourself; we’ll depart soon.”

‘Lan Waihu’ was helpless, so she entered the house to pack her things. After entering the house, she took out her secret directed audio spell but paused before she switched it on.

Her last few attempts to inform Duan Muyan of their planned visit resulted in the man threatening her. He said, “If your report is false again, I will screw your head down into the ground like a ball to kick!”

Therefore, after some contemplation, she decided not to make a report this time! Only when she was sure that Gu Xijiu really wanted to go to the base would she look for an opportunity to report the situation.

…

‘Lan Waihu’ found herself standing outside the wizardry barrier of the Blue Fox family and was stunned! They really came! Gu Xijiu meant what she said and did not take any detours today. The informant knew that she should inform her boss of their presence. Otherwise, he might rip her into pieces.

“Xijiu, I… I want to go to the toilet first.” ‘Lan Waihu’ had to come up with an excuse to have some time alone.

“Okay,” Gu Xijiu did not doubt her. “Go.”

She looked around and saw a small shrubbery nearby. She then pointed at it and said, “Go there.”

Lan Waihu nodded and went in the direction that Gu Xijiu had told her to go. However, she did not rush to pee but instead took out her directed audio spell. When she was about to contact Duan Muyan, she could hear a breeze around her. Gu Xijiu had suddenly appeared at her side.

‘Lan Waihu’ was shocked, and the directed audio spell in her hand almost fell to the ground!

“Xijiu… You… Why are you here?” She stuttered.

Gu Xijiu looked at her with concern, “I just saw a black shadow pass this place and was afraid that you had encountered something unexpected. After all, this is their territory, so we should be careful. Ok, you can pee now. I will wait here to make sure that you are safe.” She took two steps back and waited patiently for her to do her business.

‘Lan Waihu’ was speechless. A cold sweat broke out on her forehead as she complained in her heart. Since Gu Xijiu was so close to her, she naturally did not dare to use the directed audio spell now. When she squatted to pee, she kept the directed audio spell that full of sweat back into her pocket.
