Chapter 271: One More
Yunqian’s expression changed instantly, and before he could speak, he realized that the shadow was that kind of monster. In his urgency, he swiftly flicked out a talisman. The golden talisman sparked enormously in the dark, halting the shadow in its tracks. It immediately curled up and in the next moment stood up, transforming into a massive creature as tall as a house, accompanied by a roar that thundered through the skies and shook the entirety of Prince Duan’s Mansion.
Prince Duan, who had hastily dressed due to a fire, had just stepped out of the courtyard when he was stopped in his tracks by the roar, and he instinctively grabbed Housekeeper He’s hand.
"What, what’s going on?" Prince Duan looked suspiciously at the night sky, thinking it had been thunder.
Housekeeper He didn’t know either and scanned the night sky.
"Commandery Princess, go check on the Commandery Princess—" Zheng Boding came to his senses in the next moment, no longer caring about the fire, and headed straight for Zheng Nianru’s courtyard.
Zheng Nianru was awakened by the roar, and Nanny Yun, Xing Yu, Fu Dong, and Nian Xia rushed to her, gripping her hands tightly, their faces filled with panic and uncertainty.
"What happened?" Zheng Nianru asked.
"Slave, slave doesn’t know, it seemed like..."
"Aaooo————" Just then, another roar sounded, and in the darkness, the Ghost Shadow remained hidden, only revealing the figures of Yunqian and Xi Feng along with Gu Dao, their forms flipping and flying.
The house servants of Prince Duan’s Mansion, no longer concerned about the fire, trembled and hid beneath a rockery.
"A ferocious beast?" What kind of beast could emit such a terrifying roar? It must be some monster, a monster, the legendary snake beast of Weixing Mountain?
