Chapter 1495: Chapter 1495: Those Two, Only Death!

The man in black, who had suffered a setback at Prince Mo’s Mansion, knelt in the bushes and said to another person.

Looking in Zhe Jue’s direction, one could only see the back of that person, nothing else, but one could faintly sense the deadly aura radiating from him.

He could only hide himself deeper, making sure they were not aware of his presence.

"Sui Zimo will always be nothing more than an ant in my hands! You fail at your task and still dare to raise others’ spirits?" The man was furious, as if he would twist the head off the man in black at any moment.

"Look at you, what have you become?"

His brows knitted so tightly they resembled twisted hemp.

If his subordinate lost face, wasn’t that the same as him losing face? How could he possibly tolerate such a thing?

He couldn’t help but wonder, could it be that Sui Zimo was really that formidable?

Why did he struggle to believe it?

"Speak, what exactly happened?"

"Master, the day I went to investigate Prince Mo’s Mansion, I hadn’t even seen anyone from the mansion before I was blocked by a black panther and a White Fox."

The man in black respectfully replied.

"Initially, I didn’t care, after all, they were just two wild beasts; I thought killing them would suffice. Little did I know...

These two beasts were far from ordinary, almost like spiritual pets from the Illusion Continent, especially intelligent. My injuries were caused by the black panther, and moreover, I did not expect that a seemingly common White Fox would actually be poisonous!"

This was something he had never anticipated.

If he had known from the start that the White Fox was poisonous, even if he suffered grievous wounds, he would have captured it and presented it to his master.

"Injured by a black panther..."

Within the man’s words, there was an unmistakable disdain.

How could he tolerate the fact that his own subordinate was bested by a panther raised by Sui Zimo?

This ironclad reality was making it hard for him to breathe!

The man in black heard his master’s disdainful voice and felt a jolt of alarm. He knew all too well what kind of person his master was.

If a subordinate was of no use, the master would not keep them; he quickly spoke up to explain.

"Master, I did not anticipate that the White Fox had poison. It was only afterward that I was injured by the black panther. But rest assured, master, once my injuries heal, I will definitely capture those two and present them to you as a tribute."

"Tsk."

The man sneered.

Would he care for those trivial things in Sui Zimo’s possession?

On the Illusion Continent, how many spiritual pets lined up to become his pets, yet he dismissed them all with scorn; those two creatures of Sui Zimo’s deserved only death!

"Where’s Yin Baiqing?"

He didn’t care about the rest; he just wanted to know Yin Baiqing’s whereabouts.

Was it really as the message said, that Yin Baiqing had been taken away by Sui Zimo?

If that were true, then even if he had to take action personally, he would have to get Yin Baiqing back. Yin Baiqing could die, but absolutely could not fall into Sui Zimo’s hands!

"This... I’ve yet to find out."

The man in black spoke haltingly, then could only reply through clenched teeth.

"But according to what the Emperor of Wei and Princess Consort Yi have said, Yin Baiqing should indeed be at Prince Mo’s Mansion."

"Should?"

The man’s eyes flickered, spewing a dangerous light.

"The word I least like to hear is ’should’."

What ’should’ indeed; it was all what others said, mere words without evidence. Without seeing with their own eyes, how could they possibly speak the truth!
