The little monk immediately clamped his mouth shut upon hearing that.
Qiao Mu took the little monkey's hand and stood up. "Little monkey, I'll completely preserve this secret realm. You can still live here afterward, okay?"
The little monkey, with red eyes, sniffed. "Really, can I really?"
"Mhm." Qiao Mu nodded at her, then, still holding her small hand, walked out of the small courtyard. "Come on, let's go out first."
"Little Sister Qiao Qiao, if we go out now, there are many ugly monsters outside."
Qiao Mu paused, then realized she was referring to the corpse puppets that had been transferred into the secret realm. A hint of anger flashed in her eyes. "Then we need to go out even more, to clean up these things as quickly as possible. We can't let them destroy any plant or tree here and waste Mo's efforts."
The little monkey nodded vigorously upon hearing this. "Then I'll send you out, but you must be careful."
"Don't worry, we already have enough experience dealing with those guys," Little Fatty said, crossing his arms and sporting a smudged face.
In a flash, Qiao Mu and her group were teleported out of the main hall. As soon as they stabilized themselves, a foul, fishy smell assaulted them. The time and space had now shifted to a daytime, blazing sun scene. A large group of corpse puppets were gathered, fiercely attacking Princess Jing and her group. Princess Jing, Jing Minyao, and their companions, along with several students from Flying Sword, Hongfu, and Blue Ocean Academy, were already exhausted and overwhelmed.
The sudden arrival of Qiao Mu and her group inexplicably invigorated them.
Jing Minyao glanced at Qiao Mu, her heart filled with an unpleasant feeling. Although she was utterly at odds with this little crown princess, she had to admit that the appearance of Qiao Mu and her group was incredibly timely. The addition of this main force swept through the corpse puppets like a massive siege weapon, clearing away more than half of them within half an incense stick's time.
Jing Linyao wiped off sweat. When she looked back, her pupils couldn't help but contract slightly. The combat power of this group was truly formidable, yet most of them hadn't even reached the level of a tenth-level Grand Spiritual Master. But their attack speed was fast, accurate, and their methods were extremely cunning and strange. Often, before a corpse puppet could even react foolishly, two swords would attack simultaneously, directly decapitating it.
Even more astonishing was their desperate fighting style when cooperating. Yet, even after fighting for so long, not a single person among them had been injured. Not only that, while the people from Icebound City and Fire炼 City were clearing out a horde of zombies ahead, the little crown princess was actually following behind them, picking up the spoils... It was truly hard to watch!
The little crown princess specialized in sweeping the battlefield from the rear, her hands swift and her sword even swifter, quickly scooping up numerous crystal cores and collecting them all into a small pouch.
Upon seeing this, Jing Minyao was so furious her heart ached and trembled. Earlier, they had been fighting the corpse puppets to the death outside, their legs shaking and their bodies weak, with absolutely no time to collect the crystal cores on the ground. Who knew it would all benefit the little crown princess? Regardless of whether the crystal cores were swept up by their team, as long as they caught the little crown princess's eye, they were all taken.
Jing Minyao opened her mouth to shout, but only heavy gasps came out. She was simply too exhausted; her sword-wielding hand was still slightly trembling, and even if she opened her mouth, she didn't have the strength to argue with Qiao Mu.
What do you think will happen to Jing Minyao and her group now that Qiao Mu is "sweeping" the battlefield so effectively?
