“Sweetcake, be good. Let’s wait a little longer. Daddy will come out to look for us when he’s done.’
Yun Ran quickly hugged the little packrat. She was afraid that if she gathered her strength, she would scuttle into the cave. Then, with her spiritual power cultivation, she would not be able to catch up to her.
“But what if Baddie bullies Daddy? Without Sweetcake, there’s no way to protect Daddy.”
The packrat’s big eyes were red and tears welled up in her eyes. For some reason, her emotions suddenly rose.
Yun Ran could only coax her. “Your father is so powerful. Didn’t Sweetcake say that Daddy is the most powerful father in the world? Then why would he be bullied by Baddie?”
“Then why isn’t Daddy out yet?”
The little packrat was not so easy to coax. After beating around the bush, they returned to the original topic.
Yun Ran answered her own question,”Because Daddy is doing something and might need some time. He won’t be able to do it so quickly. Also, the secret guards are running slower… Daddy might need to vvait for them…”
Under her comfort, the little packrat’s emotions eased a little. “What is Daddy doing? Sweetcake can help.”
Yun Ran said, “Daddy’s capturing something bad! He doesn’t need Sweetcake’s help. Daddy can do it himself.”
Yun Ran carried the packrat and walked out of the cave again, looking for other things to distract her.
She coaxed her for a while longer.
However, gradually, the little packrat’s emotions were appeased, while Yun Ran herself was a little uneasy.
Her delicate brows furrowed. MO Beiyuan was too slow.
Could it be that the King of Ghouls with that arm had suddenly become very powerful? Did MO Beiyuan encounter some difficulties when fighting However, Yun Ran’s worries could not be discovered by her little packrat.
After waiting for a while, she finally heard footsteps.
The little packrat’s ears were sharp as she rushed into the cave with its short legs.
As she ran, she called out in a childish voice, ‘Daddy…”
Yun Ran did not grab her.
She could only follow quickly.
“Daddy? Where’s Daddy?”
The little packrat looked for her father in the group of people under the light of the torch.
She ran all the way to the back of the crowd but could not find her father.
The moment she looked at Yun Ran, she burst into tears. “Sweetcake’s father didn’t come back…
Yun Ran also swept her gaze around. MO Beiyuan was indeed not around.
She asked the secret guard beside her, “Where is he? Why didn’t he come out with you? Did something happen?”
The secret guard replied, “After you and Young Master left, Master gave the order to come out first. He will stay behind to deal with the King of Ghouls.” As for the reason, they could not figure it out either.
After discussing for a long time, the final conclusion was that they were too lousy. Master didn’t want them to stay and drag him down.
“He stayed behind to deal with the King of Ghouls? Then what were you doing inside for so long just now?”
The secret guard pointed at the few blood slaves behind him who were so frightened that they huddled together and said, “We went to save them. When we came out, we heard the cries for help of these blood slaves in the cave.”
The cave was full of twists and turns. After rescuing them, they lost their way for a while.
That was why they only came out now.
“Master hasn’t come out yet? It’s been so long… It shouldn’t be! I’ll go back and take a look.”
The secret guards were also worried. With Master’s spiritual power cultivation, he shouldn’t have been delayed for so long.
Yun Ran stopped them. “No need. Protect Sweetcake and Bun. I’ll go look for MO Beiyuan..”
