2452 The Escape (2/2)
Yun Yanli was speechless. It seemed that he did not even have the chance to get more information from the men. However, now was not the time to start a brawl. With a smile, he continued to remain quiet. With a flick of his finger, a flash of white light emerged and rose into the air all of a sudden.
Guardian Jin was puzzled. ”What are you doing?”
Yun Yanli answered assuredly, ”I have to summon my men for protection. The Divine Lord is helping Prince Nianmo with his injury, so there should not be any external disruption at all. I can see that it is getting late. The blood rain and bloody bats will arrive anytime now. My men can build a small wizardry barrier to keep this cabin safe.”
In actuality, he could not recognize Guardians Jin and Hua, but his men could. The flash of white light was genuinely a call to summon his men, but his intention was different from what he had informed the two gentlemen.
Guardian Jin was unimpressed. ”Why should the Divine Lord require your men's assistance to keep the cabin safe? There is no need!”
Yun Yanli's smile never faded. ”Don't worry. My men will only secure the perimeter; they should not cause any problems. The Divine Lord rarely visits, so I must take this chance to show my hospitality.”
”Hospitality? What makes you think that the Shura World is your territory? Who do you think you are?” Guardian Jin questioned his position.
Casually, Yun Yanli fanned himself while gesturing Guardian Jin to keep quiet. ”The Divine Lord prefers tranquility. Stay silent!”
Guardians Jin and Hua stared at one another with their mouth agape, not knowing what to say. Before they could come up with a response, Gu Xijiu suddenly emerged. ”What are you arguing about?”
The Guardians immediately bowed to her out of respect. ”Miss Gu.”
Yun Yanli was ready to perform a spell, but Gu Xijiu's presence changed his mind. He put his fingers down and said politely, ”Xijiu, how is Prince Nianmo doing?”
”Fine. Yanli, the Divine Lord will see you later; please be patient.” Gu Xijiu looked calm as she spoke to him. She then gave Guardians Jin and Hua a wave and said, ”Both of you, come in here. The Divine Lord has something to tell you.”
