"Keep your voice down, you dumb ox. Old Ye doesn't need you to remind him. If he finds what's behind this, he won't let it get away."

Yin Zhi, who was supporting Chen Cheng, shot Kui Niu a glare.

Kui Niu only gave a sheepish grin, then looked at Chen Cheng.

"Is Your Majesty all right now?"

Chen Cheng waved a hand and said,

"Perhaps this is some kind of sign. I have to go."

Without realizing it, Chen Cheng had adopted Jamir's religious way of persuading people.

Ye Rong thought for a moment, then nodded.

"All right."

"The Great Wall issued a warning earlier. This will be an exceptionally large Black Calamity. We also need to send someone to the Far-Northern Abyss to find the Beastmen Royal House and see whether something has gone wrong with their suppression.

Since Your Majesty wants to go, disguise yourself as a guard and accompany Kui Niu."

To an Enlightened One like Ye Rong, those faint, inexplicable premonitions were mysterious things. He felt there was some omen behind Chen Cheng's arrival here. Perhaps it had to do with the Abyss.

Chen Cheng nodded when he heard this.

Yin Zhi turned to Kui Niu.

"Old Ox, don't let me down. Don't let those barbarians lay a finger on His Majesty, or you'll answer to me."

Kui Niu thumped his chest with a guileless grin.

"Of course. If anyone wants to hurt His Majesty, they'll have to step over my dead body first."

"Enough talk. This little wooden sword holds the intent of a strike made with my full strength. Your Majesty, keep it with you.

If you're in danger, it will sense the threat and activate on its own to protect you. I'll sense it too and reach you as fast as I can."
