1694: Monsters Again 1

Monsters Again 1

Xinlin Mansion was hidden inside the bustling city center, and was located in a quiet alleyway, but the news spread fast even to Xinlin Mansion.1

Elder Miss had always had strong senses. She was very observant, and could even notice the minor differences in small details.

It was impossible to conceal anything from her.

It was good that Lord Huai already dealt with the trouble so Elder Miss did not need to worry about anything when she learned the truth.

Sword One confessed. "Elder Miss, something is happening in the capital. Just as the last few times, many monsters are appearing, but this time they are trackable. They are coming down from the imperial tombs. There were many of them and many villagers were attacked. It is good that the Shadow Door went forward and helped to drive them away. People from the Shadow Door have already guarded all of the entrances."

"…"

"There were no bad injuries this time, but the situation isn't looking good. Many monsters are appearing and are coming down to eat people. There will be more coming in the future, but the best spots have been occupied by people from the court, who are not doing anything. That is not going to last long. The Shadow Door can't stop them like this forever."

"…"

"Elder Miss, do you feel like taking a good look outside?" Sword One asked.

Elder Miss had woken up but the Shadow Door had already dealt with the problem, so it was safe to have a look outside, but that might cause her more distress. It was good that Qing was doing well at the temple, and would not distract Elder Miss. Hopefully, Xiu Jie will take good care of her.

Gu Chaoyan nodded.

She had to be present to check on what happened.

Monsters were dominating the place and witches were wandering at the boundary. She had been prepared to see this scene ever since the door to enchantment was opened, so it was not beyond her expectations.

Gu Chaoyan got up and decided to go out.

Sword One would be the only person working for her. Qing's absence made the whole room quiet.

Lady Lingyun and Sword Two were wondering if they should come to the room to serve Elder Miss since that had been what Qing had done, but Sword One turned them down. Elder Miss told her before that Lingyun was really good at making drugs and that she had asked her to stay with her for five years for something more valuable. Even if Lingyun was willing to serve her indoors, Elder Miss would not want to ask her to.

Sword One was already good at doing this for Elder Miss. She might have other errands to run, but she would always prioritize Elder Miss' errands.

Soon Sword One finished the combing.

She did not mention this in front of Elder Miss, because Elder Miss had a lot more to care about and should not be worried about her problems.

After getting changed, Gu Chaoyan rushed out but Sword One reminded. "Elder Miss, breakfast!"
