379 Something Happened (1)
Soon, the secret guards returned. “Princess, there are many people who have just died in front. Their blood is still fresh.”
“In front?” Ning Yue looked ahead in shock.
Although this was only King Chu’s fief, it was still a very prosperous city. How could such a thing happen?
“Call Ah Er and Ah San over. I’ll go take a look too.” Ning Yue frowned.
If not for the fact that she was sensitive and vigilant to the smell of blood, she would have walked over. What if there was danger?
If she didn’t let others see clearly, she wouldn’t be able to be sure of her safety. She wouldn’t be at ease.
“Yes,” Lin Yi said respectfully.
When Ah Er and Ah San were called by the Dragon Scale Secret Guards, they were almost frightened to death. They stood there silently.
Ah Er coughed to hide his embarrassment. “Princess, do you have to go?”
“The smell of blood is getting stronger. Since we’re already here, let’s go take a look.”
Ning Yue felt that if they were discovered by the other party, they might not be let off.
The strong smell of blood showed that these people were not soft-hearted.
As long as their group appeared in this forest, it would be enough to attract a fatal disaster. Therefore, it was more advantageous for them to take the initiative to attack.
Ah Er and the Dragon Scale Secret Guards thought the same, so when Ning Yue suggested checking the situation, they agreed.
Ning Yue pretended to bend down and took out a flashlight from her space, illuminating her surroundings.
The guards were very puzzled. Where did the thing in Ning Yue’s hand come from? They did not seem to notice, but now was not the time to think about this.
The more they walked forward, the stronger the smell of blood became.
The Dragon Scale Secret Guards had seen many bloody scenes but could not help but frown.
In comparison, Ah Er and Ah San were only by Jiang Ying’s side after all. Jiang Ying’s life was simple, and they had never seen such a bloody scene.
They vomited when they saw the pile of broken limbs.
Ah Er and Ah San were just ordinary guards. They also tried their best to control the urge to vomit.
However, the smell of blood stimulated their stomachs. The more they endured it, the more they wanted to vomit.
This place was filled with dismembered limbs and even intestines.
“They didn’t finish their business. It was ruined by our appearance.” Ning Yue chuckled and pointed at the two fresh corpses beside the corpse pit.
In addition to being intact, the wounds were still bleeding.
“Princess!” Ah Er finally adapted to the smell of blood. He called out to Ning Yue, his face pale. Ah San was still vomiting. After vomiting everything in his stomach, he finally felt a little better.
They wiped their mouths and panted as they walked up to Ning Yue, looking embarrassed.
“Princess, let’s check the vicinity.” They wanted to make up for their mistakes. Of course, they wanted to leave this place more so as not to embarrass themselves.
The smell of blood was still stimulating their stomachs. They only resisted the urge to vomit. If they stayed any longer, they would probably really vomit.
They could not even compare to Ning Yue, let alone the Dragon Scale Secret Guards. It was really embarrassing.
“Go,” Ning Yue said.
Ning Yue looked at the two fresh corpses and sighed faintly.
She said to the Dragon Scale Secret Guards, “Bury them all.”
These people were already dead. They could only bury them and let them rest in peace.
When Lin Yi and the others heard this, they were stunned. They wanted to refuse, but they did not dare to say so. They could only brace themselves and nod.
“While you’re burying them, check if there’s anything left at the scene that can be used to verify their identities,” Ning Yue said.
Soon, they were all dealt with. They stood in front of Ning Yue and said defeatedly, “The other party was already prepared. The surroundings have been cleaned up. There’s not even a footstep. We can’t investigate.”
Ah Er and Ah San looked ashamed. They couldn’t find anything to verify the identity of this group. Their faces burned.
When Ning Yue heard this, she knew that something was wrong and hurriedly said, “Leave immediately!”
According to Ah Er, this group of people was meticulous and disciplined. It was better for them to leave early.
“Yes,” Ah Er said respectfully.
They had to leave. Ning Yue glanced behind her. She could no longer wait for Jiang Ying.
After they left, a group of people suddenly appeared behind them.
They looked at the place where Ning Yue had left with ruthless eyes.
