Chapter 2244: Provoked a Little Devil

Chapter 2244: Chapter 2244: Provoked a Little Devil

“Retreat, quickly retreat!”

The guards heard the order and immediately dragged him, trying to escape.

But just as they turned around, they looked up and saw unfamiliar men and women appearing in the courtyard. Their expressions instantly shifted to alarm.

Clearly, these people were not to be trifled with. How did His Majesty provoke them? Was it because of the little baby who had just been captured? Suddenly, they felt that His Majesty’s plan to capture that little baby might have been ill-conceived.

Sure enough, the child was captured, but along with him came a whole host of formidable opponents.

What a mess!

“Protect His Majesty! Retreat quickly!”

He shouted at the guards behind him, attempting to shield the Former Sovereign Emperor as they fled.

The Former Sovereign Emperor: “…”

He, too, noticed the figures in the courtyard. Not only that, but he also heard the remarks of his trusted aide, which nearly made him spit out the blood welling up within him.

Was the guard trying to let these people know who he was? Protect His Majesty? Really?

How could he be saddled with such idiotic guards? Were they hoping he’d die quickly so they could find a more reliable master?

Though he cursed inwardly, none of it showed on his face. He was not only suffering external injuries but also serious internal wounds, leaving him unable to summon his Demonic energy. His only hope lay with these guards, relying on them to help him leave this cursed place.

At this moment, he deeply regretted his decision. Why had he ever thought to provoke that little demon?

The son of the High Priest Demon Heart—though young—was still a devil incarnate. How could someone from an ordinary plane like him dare provoke such a being?

What a grievous mistake!

But there was no other choice; he had to run. As long as he could escape, there was still room to maneuver.

“Qian Jiyun, I leave him to you.”

An Jiuyue, her cold eyes fixed on the bloodied Former Sovereign Emperor, addressed her husband.

Anyone daring to target her little baby couldn’t be dealt with lightly. Death wasn’t sufficient punishment—they had to experience pain at its fiercest.

“Alright.”

Qian Jiyun responded with a single word as his gaze swept across the courtyard.

“You take care of Nuonuo; leave the rest to me.”

An Jiuyue nodded and walked toward the little baby. As she approached, the guards in the courtyard, frightened, stepped aside to let her through.

They knew the High Priest Demon Heart of Wulong Mountain was a woman, and among this group, there was only one woman. If they didn’t step aside, would they throw themselves forward to die instead?

“Mama, Mama, hug!”

Little Nuonuo spotted his mother and wriggled free from the arms of the Paper Person, walking steadily before throwing himself at her and hugging her leg tightly.

“Mama, fight the bad guys. Bad guys are so bad!”

“Yes, the bad guys are the worst!”

An Jiuyue bent down to pick up the little baby, lightly pinching his chubby little cheeks.

“Are you scared?”

“Nuonuo isn’t scared; Nuonuo fights the bad guys!”

The little baby showed no fear but instead felt exhilarated. To prove he wasn’t scared, he fidgeted in An Jiuyue’s arms, kicking his feet wildly like he was fighting someone.

“Nuonuo is still young; you can’t fight the bad guys yet. But later, you can let Uncle Paper Person fight them for you.” An Jiuyue patted the little baby’s back to calm him down.

“As for now, let’s step aside and watch your papa fight the bad guys. Papa is amazing at fighting bad guys.”

“Papa, Papa fights bad guys!”

Nuonuo clenched his small fist and cheered for his father with enthusiasm.
