“This is bad!” The few young masters shouted.
They were about to get off the horse and snatch the cage back.
However, Gu Nuo’er’s small figure jumped and she hugged the cage in her arms.
“Elder Brother Siming! I’ve caught it!” The child’s voice was sweet and soft with excitement.
Ye Siming whistled and the black horse immediately galloped over.
The youth hugged Gu Nuo’er’s small body and jumped easily. In the next second, he grabbed the reins and sat steadily on the horse.
He looked at the stunned young masters behind him.
Gu Nuo’er leaned on Ye Siming’s shoulder and laughed crisply. “Thank you, older brothers for the prey!”
An instant later, Ye Siming had already galloped far away with the princess.
The young masters were surprised and looked at each other.
“So we were deceived? Letting the princess out alone to attract attention first before Marquis Yongye attacks from behind.”
“This seems to be a diversion”
The few of them looked up at the sky and roared, feeling regretful.
It was mainly because the princess looked harmless. Anyone else in their shoes would also lower their vigilance!
After a while, Gu Nuo’er and Ye Siming stopped by a stream in the forest. The child looked at the two pheasants cowering in the cage and a sweet smile appeared on her fair face.
“It’s a great first victory. This is a good sign!”
After saying that, she started to stick out her butt and picked up a pile of stones by the stream.
She then took out the thin threads she carried with her and started to set up the mechanisms the eighth prince had taught her.
Ye Siming squatted beside her and watched for a while.
“It’s too dangerous to do this. How many do you want? I’ll hunt them.”
Gu Nuo’er didn’t raise her small face and looked round and chubby from the side. “It’s not dangerous and it won’t hurt the little rabbits. Eighth Brother said that it’ll hit their tendons and they won’t be able to run for a while. Then, I’ll able to catch them.”
Ye Siming raised his eyebrows. “How is it not dangerous? Didn’t I step on the trap yesterday when I entered the courtyard? What if I couldn’t react in time?”
When the child heard this, she thought seriously for a moment before saying with a sweet smile, “That won’t happen. Elder Brother Siming is so skilled, how could you not be able to react in time?!”
Seeing that she was focused on setting up the mechanism, Ye Siming frowned and didn’t say anything else.
His wolf intuition told him that this mechanism would ruin things in the future.
He didn’t like it.
However, he didn’t know why he thought that.
Gu Nuo’er carefully fiddled with the mechanism.
Ye Siming let the horse go to the stream to drink water by itself.
He crossed his arms and stood beside the child, looking like a guardian angel. At this moment, a few black shadows flashed past the forest opposite the stream.
Ye Siming frowned and looked over warily.
There didn’t seem to be anything unusual in the quiet forest.
The mottled sunlight of autumn shone on the leaves, only illuminating the brilliance of the green and golden colors.
However, Ye Siming felt it very clearly.
That aura just now… was a few remnant souls of evil beasts that had escaped from the Asura Realm.
They could actually chase him here?
The Hungry Ghost Festival had passed, but they still wanted to stay behind and not leave.
If they were left to wander around and pester Gu Nuo’er one day, it would bring her trouble.
The child was originally tying up a small stone.
She suddenly felt Ye Siming pick her up and sit on the horse’s back in the next second.
Gu Nuo’er blinked her big black and round eyes. “Elder Brother Siming, are we leaving now?”
Ye Siming touched the horse’s ear.
He looked up at the child, his cold and black eyes reflecting a hint of warmth under the autumn sun.
“Gu Nuo’er, shall I play a game with you?”
When the child heard about a game, she became interested and immediately asked softly, “Alright! What game is it, Elder Brother Siming?”
