Chapter 257 Crisis Moment (2)_1
"I understand," said Baili Ruyan as she took the White Jade Stone and turned to leave.
"My King, should someone follow the Princess?" a shadow asked from behind Mang Qianjun.
"No need," Mang Qianjun replied. "She would be displeased."
"But the strength of those who have escaped this time is nontrivial. If the Princess goes alone, there could be danger," the shadow said.
Mang Qianjun raised his eyes and glanced at the shadow, saying, "Dingdong, I’ve noticed that lately you’re more concerned about her than about me. Are you my Shadow Guard, or are you hers?"
"Your subordinate is merely concerned for those whom the King cares about," the shadow knelt and said.
"Rise, rise, with our relationship, there’s no need for such formalities. After all, we’ve been together for millions of years, haven’t we?" Mang Qianjun tapped his fingers on the armrest and said, "Well, I don’t care; you make the effort. But since her Soul Realignment, that girl has changed quite a bit. Whether you’ll succeed or not, heh, I’m looking forward to seeing it!"
"My King..."
"However, she is the only one who can go this time; you have other matters to attend to. Once she leaves, she’ll have to find her companion from her past life; she won’t be alone and won’t have time to bother with you!" Mang Qianjun said, "The other old fellows saw them leave and are all thinking of ways to get out. You go and take care of it. No one else can handle them but you! Go open the door for her first."
"Yes."
