Chapter 35 Wild Dogs.

She cried so sadly.

After they parted in the mountains, Yu Zhizhi had been worried about Dracula's condition. When she heard what the Duke read out and thought that he had been in trouble, she couldn't stop crying.

But the Duke said that it was too early for her to cry...?
Yu Zhizhi's crying stopped abruptly. She sobbed softly, raised her misty eyes and looked at the man sitting opposite her.

He was wearing a loose dark purple robe and holding a newspaper in his hand. His golden vertical pupils stared straight at her. The follower beside him poured him a cup of black tea.

The Duke went on reading.

"The Huiyue formation under the forest was activated, and the leader of the Cang Nation disappeared in full view of everyone, and his whereabouts are unknown."

"Sun and Moon Dual Formation..."

"You are really capable."

An unfriendly smile appeared on the Duke's face.

...disappeared.

Yu Zhizhi silently recited these three words in her heart.

She suddenly saw hope.

Dracula may have escaped. We haven't caught him and our body hasn't been seen, which means he is still alive!

"Are you not crying anymore?" The Duke glanced at her.

Yu Zhizhi's hand holding the fork trembled slightly. She picked up a piece of carrot and stuffed it into her mouth.

The little female eats very seriously.

She seemed to have completely forgotten that she had just cried, even though her nose was red and there were tear marks at the corners of her eyes.

This new little pet is generally pretty good, except that its tear glands are a little overdeveloped.

The Duke turned a page of the newspaper and picked up his teacup: "Don't cry in front of me from now on. Do you hear me?"

"I heard it." Yu Zhizhi responded softly.

There was the sound of wind chimes coming from the front.

The servant came to the door and bowed, "My lord, Earl Grey is here."

"Invite him in."

After hearing this, Yu Zhizhi quickly stuffed the remaining food into her mouth.

"I... I'm done eating." She raised the plate, indicating to the Duke to eat it all himself.

"Go and have fun." The Duke put down the newspaper.

Yu Zhizhi's eyes lit up slightly, she quickly stood up, bowed and hurried out.

I almost bumped into someone head-on——

She looked up and saw a young man in a white noble suit, with amber hair and eyes. When he saw her, he was slightly startled.

Yu Zhizhi lowered her head and slipped away from him.

She was wearing a white knee-length gauze skirt and walking barefoot on the wooden floor of the corridor, her steps brisk and filled with the joy of the early morning.

——She was sincerely happy about the news that Dracula was not dead.

The pond in the yard was full of blue lotuses. The servants cleaning the yard moved gently and quietly, making almost no sound.

Yu Zhizhi walked past them.

The followers saluted one after another.

She tried to go out and found no one to stop her.

Yu Zhizhi bit her lip and sneaked out. Leaving the study yard, there was a long road outside, lined with green trees and neatly arranged cobblestones on the ground.

There is a pavilion in front.

She had just taken a few steps when she heard a girl's sneer.

"Ugly!"

Accompanied by the sound of a whip, the girl mocked unscrupulously.

"Look at you now, what female master would be interested in you? I told you earlier that if you just obeyed me, I would guarantee you a life of wealth and glory. You are blind, and now you are in my hands! I will beat you to death!"

There were three consecutive whippings. Yu Zhizhi hid behind a tree and vaguely saw a figure kneeling on the ground being suppressed by two orcs.

——His back was straight, covered in blood, but he refused to bend.

Yu Zhizhi suddenly heard the voice of the system.

[System: Ding! The host has triggered the side quest! ]

[System: After completion, you can get a "teleportation scroll" and have a chance to teleport instantly on the already lit map.]

[System: Host, would you like to accept this side quest? ]

Teleportation scroll?
If this is available, can I just teleport away after completing the task?
Yu Zhizhi nodded quickly. [I’ll take it!]
——She really wants the [Teleportation Scroll]!
[System: Ding! Congratulations to the host for activating the side quest "Save the Wild Dog". Save the wild dog from the female snake and ensure its safety. If the wild dog survives for more than a month, the quest is considered a success and a "Teleportation Scroll (Single)" will be awarded! ]

Save wild dogs...

The wild dog refers to the one who is about to be whipped to death?

"who!"

The servant beside the girl saw the small figure hiding behind the tree and immediately scolded him.

The guards on both sides of the pavilion drew their swords on the spot.

Yu Zhizhi had never seen such a scene before. She was shocked and her face turned pale.

Feeling a knife hovering at her neck, she dared not move and could only slowly walk out from behind the tree under the coercion of the guards.

The girl holding the whip narrowed her eyes slightly: "Rabbit tribe? Is there any banquet recently?"

"To answer the young lady, no."

"Who are you? Why are you in Lord Bolan's mansion? Are you a spy sent by other forces?" The girl approached with a whip.

"No, I just came back from abroad with the Duke."

Yu Zhizhi saw the girl gradually walking towards her. She had a pair of dark brown vertical pupils and a cold look in her eyes.

The eyes of the snake orcs are particularly easy to recognize, and are almost indistinguishable from those of snakes.

Yu Zhizhi couldn't help but take a step back.

The girl approached and pushed away the knife that was on the neck of the little female rabbit.

"I heard that Master Bolan brought back a pet. Is that you?"

"……Um."

"Why do you come to my pavilion when you can stay with Master Bolan?"

"Go for a walk."

After the female snake knew her identity, she waved her hand and all the guards stepped aside.

Danger removed.

The girl circled around the little female rabbit. She smelled sweet and no one knew what kind of shower gel she used.

Or maybe, body odor?
"My name is Mu Mu." She introduced herself. "I am from the distant snake tribe. I am here to visit Master Bolan's home on behalf of my parents. I will not be back until the end of the year."

"My name is--"

"I know you."

The snake girl interrupted Yu Zhizhi directly.

"I've watched the live broadcast. Now everyone is talking about you, saying that you were abducted by the leader of the Cang Nation. I didn't expect that it was Master Bolan who brought you back."

After confirming Yu Zhizhi's identity, the snake girl's hostility mostly disappeared.

The other party was a beautiful female rabbit, who was very pleasing to the eye.

Moreover, she, like herself, was of the noble S-class.

Yu Zhizhi took on the side quest. She really wanted the [Teleportation Scroll], so she asked softly, "What happened to him?"

"Him? He's blind. He must have offended me."

The snake girl crossed her arms and said, "He asked him to serve me at night, but he was not happy about it. He relied on his pretty face, but now I have scratched it~"

Yu Zhizhi looked at her blankly.

"Do you want to marry him?"

The snake girl's eyes widened: "How is that possible? What is his status? What is my status? At most, I can let him be my male pet. I will throw him away when I get tired of him."

"Unfortunately, he is disobedient and unwilling to commit himself to me. Then I will beat him to death." The snake girl said in a sad tone.

Yu Zhizhi's side quest is related to this wild dog.

She thought for a while and said:

"Miss Mumu, can you give him to me? I can exchange him with other things."

"No, I'm still angry and I have to kill him, unless——"

"Unless Lord Bolan asks personally to give him to you."

A sly smile appeared on the snake girl's face.

"Miss Zhizhi, please go find the Duke."
