Xue Fanxin knew that even if the golden needles pierced the bottom of the earth-burrowing rats’ necks, it would not take their lives. It would only hurt them. Just in case, she jumped down from the tree and killed the earth-burrowing rat with her dagger.
While she killed one, the other two immediately flew over. They were furious, clearly angry that their companion had been killed. They looked like they wanted to tear Xue Fanxin apart. They used all their strength in their jump, revealing their sharp teeth and claws.
Facing the desperate attacks of the two enraged earth-burrowing rats, Xue Fanxin did not dare to fight them head-on and quickly dodged.
However, the earth-burrowing rats were quite agile. They swiftly reacted and changed directions to attack her again.
Xue Fanxin dodged the rats again while holding silver needles. As long as there was a chance, she would make her move.
However, the rats had learned to be smart. They protected their weakness very well. It was tough for Xue Fanxin to retaliate.
“These two big rats are quite smart.”
If the demonic beast was smart, she would be miserable.
If she could not kill these two earth-burrowing rats, she could only escape. But that would not do. The mission Ah Jiu had given her was to kill these rats.
“I want to see how capable you are.” Xue Fanxin did not retreat. She repeatedly dodged their ferocious attacks, but after jumping up and down for an hour, she still could not find an opportunity to land an attack.
If this continued, she would die of exhaustion before she could kill these two earth-burrowing rats.
Ye Jiushang and the others started to get worried when Xue Fanxin did not return.
“Grandson-in-law, Xin’er has been gone for more than two hours. Will she be in any danger? She’s not familiar with this place. If anything happens, it will be bad.” Xue Batian was the most anxious. He had already asked the same question dozens of times.
The others were also concerned, but they did not show it like Xue Batian.
Little Lei, on the other hand, looked carefree. As he ate the roasted meat, he said, “With Master around, you can rest assured. This roasted meat is really disgusting. It’s so disgusting. Gu Jinyuan, can you give me that skewer in your hand?”
Gu Jinyuan was actually not too worried about Xue Fanxin either. This was because he knew that Ye Jiushang would not let anything happen to her. He calmly cooked his meat. He was studying how to make delicious roasted meat. After repeated failures, he finally found a way.
“It smells so good! Brother Jinyuan, can you give me this skewer?” The more Little Lei looked, the more he found it delicious. He threw away the black roasted meat in his hand and came to Gu Jinyuan’s side. He looked like he was currying favor, and his mouth seemed to be smeared with honey as he spoke especially nicely.
Everyone was speechless toward a foodie like Little Lei who had no principles. However, they were already used to it.
Ye Jiushang was drinking tea. Although he looked motionless, he had actually been paying attention to Xue Fanxin’s every move. He was prepared to attack at any moment.
This was his little consort’s first time fighting a demonic beast. How could he really ignore it?
