Chapter 323:
So-Yeong sat happily on my back, giggling.
She must’ve been in a good mood after landing a solid hit on the Five Venoms Sect.
Understandable—every single venomous snake at that gate had ended up joining us.
The ones too slow or weak for battle had already been sent ahead to the Gae Gak Sect.
And how were we sending them? Well, my poor wyvern had some work cut out for him.
I’d plucked a few scales off myself, so if they showed up at the meeting spot and gave them to the wyvern, he’d know to give them °• N 𝑜 v 𝑒 l i g h t •° a lift.
Sure, it’d take a while given how many there were, but I told them to pass along the message that I’d prepare two brand-new luxury carriages if he completed the mission—so he’d probably be motivated.
“Heheh. How many are there, anyway?”
Naturally, So-Yeong was even more thrilled, given her obsession with poisons.
Of course, my actual destination was the Beast Palace, not the Five Venoms Sect—but now that things had turned out this way, taking a little detour didn’t seem so bad.
And bailing now would just make it look like we’d stirred up a hornet’s nest and ran off.
If I kept passing through these gates and gaining new allies like this, the Gae Gak Sect’s forces would get seriously beefed up.
