Fiancée Stolen by MC, I Trip Them up-Chapter 287 - 189: I’ll Keep This Secret for Life!

Chapter 287: Chapter 189: I’ll Keep This Secret for Life!

When Zhao Yi went to the Little World to chase people out, the little poisonous creature arrived at the imperial city with a group of spiritual beasts.

As soon as they got under the imperial city, the little poisonous creature saw a familiar figure.

"Brother Xiao Jing!"

The little poisonous creature looked at the Buddha’s Light behind the protagonist’s head, eyes shining, "Brother Xiao Jing, did your little sun behind your head light up again?"

Main character: "..."

"Amitabha Buddha!"

The protagonist, ultimately still kind-hearted, couldn’t bear to see the little poisonous creature continue being silly, patiently explained: "Benefactor, this is Buddha’s Light, not some little sun."

"All the same," the little poisonous creature said dismissively.

Phoo!

The protagonist took a deep breath, then turned his head, no longer paying attention to the little poisonous creature, but looked at the ferocious beasts in front of the imperial city.

The protagonist asked Zuo Xiaoluo: "Grand General, how should we deal with these monster puppets?"

"Kill them all!" Zuo Xiaoluo said without hesitation.

"Amitabha Buddha."

The protagonist breathed a Buddhist chant, slightly frowning, "But you just said that those monster puppets stopped the War Puppet Army, they are friends, not foes."

When the protagonist arrived at the imperial city earlier, he saw so many monster beasts gathered in front of the city gate, thinking the previous tremors were caused by these monster beasts, he was ready to take action against them, but was stopped by Zuo Xiaoluo.

Zuo Xiaoluo explained the origin of those monster beasts, stating that they were without Divine Souls and just a bunch of puppets, not requiring his intervention.

Although the protagonist regretted not having the opportunity to showcase his strength, he was relieved to hear that the capital city was unaffected, and all enemies had been annihilated.

The protagonist thought the battle was over and Zuo Xiaoluo would retrieve those monster puppets, but she said to kill them directly.

Zuo Xiaoluo, seeing the puzzled look in the protagonist’s eyes, explained: "These monster beasts have eaten humans, and according to our Northern Border’s rules, any monster beast that has eaten humans must be executed!"

At this moment, Taotie cheerfully came over with a group of spiritual beasts.

Just in time to hear Zuo Xiaoluo’s words, Taotie’s legs went weak, and it directly knelt down.

Zuo Xiaoluo heard the commotion behind her, turned around, and asked Taotie puzzled: "What’s the matter with you?"

Taotie hurriedly shook its head, trembling and saying: "N-no problem, I just slipped accidentally."

At this moment, all the arrays on the imperial city closed.

The city gates opened wide, and Miaoyin Zhenren led people out from inside to greet them.

At the moment the array closed, Black Stripe jumped down from the head of the giant black dog.

Miaoyin Zhenren passed by its side, gently patted its dog’s head, and said with a smile: "Black Stripe, you’ve done great this time! When the Crown Prince returns, I’ll have him get you a big gold bone!"

"Woof!"

Black Stripe, freshly out of danger and still a bit startled, immediately cheered up upon hearing there would be a bone to eat.

Zuo Xiaoluo heard the commotion, turned her head, and walked toward Black Stripe.

She was very curious about how Black Stripe had brought those monster puppets.

Taotie, seeing Zuo Xiaoluo walking away, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

It knew Zuo Xiaoluo’s methods well.

Others might think Zuo Xiaoluo was joking when she said to kill those monster beasts.

But Taotie knew.

Xiaoluo was absolutely the type to follow through on her words.

If Zuo Xiaoluo found out it had eaten people too.

Taotie had no doubt Zuo Xiaoluo would chop it up with a cleaver!

Zuo Xiaoluo came to Black Stripe’s side, asking: "How did you control those monster puppets?"

Black Stripe: "Woof!"

Zuo Xiaoluo: "..."

She slapped her forehead, speechless: "I was being silly, who was..."

Zuo Xiaoluo actually wanted to call Taotie over, but the little poisonous creature was sharp-eyed.

Seeing that Zuo Xiaoluo needed help, she quickly ran over to offer her services.

"General Sister, let me do it, I relay messages the fastest!"

Upon hearing this, before the others could react, the protagonist’s face changed first.

He had experienced Zuo Xiaoluo’s ability to relay messages.

It was something he found hard to look back on!

Zuo Xiaoluo knew Xiaoluo grew up with spiritual beasts in the forest, and hearing her say this, truly thought she could understand beast language.

So she nodded and smiled: "Xiaoxiao, then I’ll trouble you!"

"No trouble at all!"

The little poisonous creature patted her chest and said: "General Sister, rest assured, I relay messages the fastest!"

Though these words sounded odd, Zuo Xiaoluo didn’t think much about it, instead asking Black Stripe again: "Where did you bring those monster puppets from?"

Black Stripe: "Woof!"

The surrounding people all simultaneously looked at the little poisonous creature.

The little poisonous creature, unhurriedly, with seriousness, said: "Black Stripe said it’s in the back mountain of the Crown Prince’s Mansion."

Zuo Xiaoluo turned to ask Black Stripe: "Is it there?"

Black Stripe nodded.

Seeing this, everyone’s expressions showed a hint of surprise, and they looked at the little poisonous creature with curiosity.

The protagonist’s brow furrowed, assessing the little poisonous creature with a scrutinizing and questioning gaze.

Originally, he didn’t believe for a second that the little poisonous creature could relay messages.

But now, it seemed she indeed had some skill.

And then the protagonist’s expression grew more unpleasant.

He had been really messed with by the little poisonous creature’s relaying before.

If she couldn’t relay messages, that would be one thing.

But it turns out, she could.

Didn’t that mean she did it on purpose to annoy him before?

The protagonist’s fist tightened.

The little poisonous creature, seeing everyone looking at her with strange eyes, suddenly proudly lifted her head.

Zuo Xiaoluo, surprised, said: "Xiaoxiao, I didn’t expect you to have this kind of skill, truly impressive."

The little poisonous creature giggled foolishly: "I just found out today that I have this skill..."

"What?" Zuo Xiaoluo didn’t hear clearly.

The little poisonous creature quickly waved her hand: "Nothing. I mean, I’ve heard it a lot since I was a kid, so I gradually picked it up through exposure and observation."

Zuo Xiaoluo nodded, smiling: "Then ask Black Stripe how it controls these monster puppets? Also, I’ve been to the back mountain of the Crown Prince’s Mansion, how come I’ve never seen these monster puppets, did the Crown Prince instruct it to do so?"

Upon hearing Zuo Xiaoluo’s string of questions, the little poisonous creature’s face tightened, worrying about how to continue the lie, suddenly heard Zhao Yi’s name.

Her eyes immediately lit up.

Then, the little poisonous creature went to Black Stripe’s side and repeated Zuo Xiaoluo’s words.

Black Stripe: "Woof!"

The little poisonous creature earnestly listened, and solemnly nodded.

"Mm, okay, got it!"

After speaking, she turned her head towards Zuo Xiaoluo, seriously saying: "General Sister, Black Stripe said this was all arranged by the master, if you want to know more about those monster puppets, you can go to the master for inquiries. It’s just a dog, it knows nothing."

Black Stripe heard this, tilted its head, looking at the little poisonous creature with a puzzled expression.

"Woof?"

The little poisonous creature affectionately hugged Black Stripe’s neck, smiling: "Black Stripe, did I say it right?"

Black Stripe instinctively wanted to shake its head, but caught itself, and looked confusedly at the little poisonous creature.

Zuo Xiaoluo, seeing this, nodded and said: "Looks like it is another method arranged in advance by the Crown Prince, the Crown Prince’s strategies are truly admirable!" 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

Miaoyin Zhenren agreed: "Those combat puppets are very troublesome. If the Crown Prince hadn’t prepared in advance, we... would’ve been in great trouble! While those undead don’t have much left. They will cause future troubles unless wiped out now."

Zuo Xiaoluo nodded: "That’s what I was thinking too! I’ve already ordered the Iron Armor Army to enter the city, the army will arrive soon."

The Army-Breaking Army and General were to come too, as dealing with the Barbarian Race and unresolved threats.

The undead zombie dragon attacked the city earlier, and orders were given to let the Iron Armor Army defend the capital post-haste.

However, by the time the Iron Armor Army arrived, the battle had already ended.

But it was perfect timing to use this opportunity to sweep through Shengjing City thoroughly to prevent any similar situations from happening again.

Zuo Xiaoluo nodded and said: "I also think so! I have already ordered the Iron Armor Army into the city, the army will be here soon."

Meanwhile, Taotie who had been watching the little poisonous creature’s reaction, chuckled before speaking:

"Xiaoxiao, you don’t want people to know you can’t actually understand Black Stripe’s barking, do you?"
