My Crown Prince Consort Is a Firecracker!

Chapter 1307: Resources Over Life

“Ah!” A female mystic cultivator cried in surprise, “Aren’t you that? That second manager Liu Yuan of Jiaozhong Fortification.”

“Why are you, this punk, here?” Striding up, Brother Axe was about to grasp Liu Yuan’s hair when Qiao Mu yelled “Be careful.”

He retracted his hand, and a small, short red-eyed zombie darted out, chomping down hard on the heavy armor shielding his arm.

“It’s that child!”

“The youngest young sir of the City Lord’s Estate!”

“My heavens, he really did mutate.” Everyone quickly came to the rescue, thrusting that young zombie to the corner of the wall with several strikes of their mystic energy.

“Come back!” Qiao Mu berated with glaring eyes.

Brother Axe looked down at his heavy armor.
Just as he heaved a sigh of relief and smiled good-naturedly at Qiao Mu while reassuring, “Everything’s fine, I…”

There was an unexpected turn of events.
That young zombie shot out a long, barbed tongue that aimed straight for Brother Axe’s mouth.

Brother Axe was encased entirely in heavy armor, leaving only his mouth and eyes uncovered.

In his panic, the mystic energy he struck out did not hit that wriggling tongue, and he watched on helplessly as that barbed tongue squirmed toward his mouth.

Brother Axe felt his scalp explode, and he raised his broad axe with a shout.

However, the young zombie was too speedy and moved like a flash of light.

Qiao Mu pinned that long, wriggling tongue with an icicle, instantly chopping off half of it.

When Liu Yuan saw this, his eyes flickered sullenly, and he got up from where he was sitting in the corner.
He then crawled into the hole in the wall while holding onto a thick rope.

However, he did not expect for the cut portion of the tongue to suddenly jump up and fly into Liu Yuan’s parted lips as if it had grown eyes of its own.

Liu Yuan had been totally caught off guard.
The barbed tongue had already lodged in his throat, making him bulge his eyes in shock and terror.

His hand was still clutching tightly to the thick rope, whose other end was tied to that young zombie.

Brother Axe, who had broken out in cold sweat, quickly returned to the team.
He nodded gratefully at Qiao Mu.
“Thank you.”

The female mystic cultivator moved her lips before remarking in bewilderment, “Look, he had that young zombie on a leash.
Did he think that he could control this zombie?”

“He should have come back to find supplies.” Qiao Mu swept a cold gaze at Liu Yuan, who had collapsed in the corner.
“However, he did not think that he would go for wool but come back shorn.”

“That’s right.” Eldest Young Sir Qin nodded.
“This youngest young sir of the City Lord’s Estate must have known where the supplies were stored.
When this Liu Yuan saw us coming over to eliminate the zombies, he must have gotten the idea of sneaking inside with the city lord’s son to find supplies.”

“But he had no idea that he would lose his life here.” Situ Yi shook his head as he swung his sword and directly beheaded Liu Yuan.

On the other end, three great mystic cultivators had immobilized the young zombie with their mystic energy.
They shook their heads as they gazed at its bloodshot eyes filled with hatred.
They asked, “Should we keep it to find the supplies?”

Qiao Mu shook her head while frowning.

Eldest Young Sir Qin promptly pierced the young zombie’s head with a burst of powerful mystic energy from a swipe of his folding fan.

“Go search around.
There should be an underground granary here,” Qiao Mu instructed quietly.
She suddenly was not in the mood to talk anymore.

“Qiaoqiao, what is there to be unhappy about? If we don’t kill these monsters, we can’t just wait to be killed by them.” Eldest Qin winked at her.

Suddenly, the cry of a hawk pierced the air—
