“This feels like flying~~~”
“This feels like freedom~~~”
Jiang Ke’er skipped and swaggered along the path to the Ancient Learning Realm of the Great Si Kingdom.
When Qiao Xiaoxian extended her life by half a year, she had no intention of staying in the casino and wasting 30 days of her fox life.
Qiao Xiaoxian might have guessed that she would leave early… but she definitely wouldn’t have guessed that she would only take one day! Not only did she leave, but she also got a ticket!
By the time Qiao Xiaoxian finished her business and came looking for her, she would have already snuck into the Ancient Learning Realm to hide! At that point, Qiao Xiaoxian, without a ticket, could only stay outside and stare.
Once she had successfully cultivated, she would go alone to the Southern Continent to detoxify herself… Why would she still rely on Qiao Xiaoxian to extend her life?
Jiang Ke’er had never felt so exhilarated as she did at this moment.
This was the freest moment she had experienced since transmigrating.
She had finally broken free from all restraints and could decide her own direction.
“Qiao Xiaoxian… alas… Qiao Xiaoxian…”
She just didn’t know why, she would occasionally sigh a few times, a knot of sadness in her chest.
The atmosphere in Aolai Kingdom had changed.
Along the way, Jiang Ke’er could clearly feel the surrounding atmosphere becoming tense.
On all roads, there were guards every ten steps and sentries every five steps, with soldiers constantly checking the identities of passersby.
Since the day she left the casino, this tense atmosphere had not dissipated, but no matter how Jiang Ke’er probed, she couldn’t find out what was happening.
All of this was revealed on the third day.
“The King has been assassinated and the assassin’s whereabouts are unknown.”
No wonder the usually relaxed and sluggish Aolai Kingdom, with its sunset-red atmosphere, suddenly became so tense.
It was a good thing she had stolen someone else’s ID card to sneak through, otherwise, she probably wouldn’t even have reached the border before being caught.
Jiang Ke’er looked at the heavily guarded border and the patrolling cultivators flying above on their swords, subconsciously swallowing.
This should be the last checkpoint before she reached the Ancient Learning Realm of the Great Si Kingdom.
Once she passed the border inspection, she could directly take a cloud boat to the Ancient Learning Realm.
Her combat power wasn’t high yet, and being in such a dangerous place without Qiao Xiaoxian by her side, she inevitably felt a little panicked.
If she failed the security check, all her efforts would be in vain, and she might even be in life-threatening danger.
Next, she should just be careful and avoid causing any extra trouble…
“Stupid dog! What use are you?!”
Huh? Who’s cursing me?
Oh no, I’m a fox…
Jiang Ke’er instinctively looked towards the source of the sound.
“I’m so sorry! So sorry!”
A beast-eared girl, about her height and looking very young, was repeatedly bowing and apologizing to the surrounding security soldiers.
From the curses directed at her by the people around, she should be a genuine dog-girl.
“I said he has a problem, so he has a problem! What are you blabbering about here?” A short-tempered soldier raised his leg and heavily kicked the loli dog-girl.
The dog-girl was kicked to the ground, a pained expression on her face, but she still endured the pain and struggled to her feet, continuously bowing and apologizing to the soldier: “I’m sorry, I’m sorry! But I really didn’t smell any contraband…”
“Shut up!”
The soldier, enraged, raised his hand to strike the dog-girl again.
Witnessing everything before her, Jiang Ke’er could only turn her head away with difficulty, closing her eyes and muttering continuously, “Don’t get involved, don’t get involved. You’re not an invincible protagonist; this side plot has nothing to do with you. Reality is cruel; sticking your neck out will get you beaten into fox mush…”
Jiang Ke’er took several deep breaths, finally calming her agitated mind, and revealed a standard smile.
She opened her eyes and saw the soldier raising his palm, aiming for the dog-girl’s face.
Fortunately, at this moment, her mindset was already very calm; not even the end of the world could shake her determination to stay hidden…
The soldier’s hand fell: “You mongr—”
“Mongrel your grandma!” Jiang Ke’er cursed furiously, rushing out of the crowd and using a formation stone to heavily strike the soldier’s arm.
“Today, I’ll see who dares to pick on a demon!”
She couldn’t help it! Jiang Ke’er was on the verge of tears.
The soldier, of course, was furious.
Clasping his swollen wrist, he spouted the typical cannon fodder line: “Seize this demoness!”
The little dog demon clearly hadn’t expected a fellow demon unafraid of death to step in.
As if something clicked, she apologized even more profusely: “I’m so sorry, so sorry, it’s all my fault. Sister, please leave quickly, don’t mind me, it’s all my problem…”
Jiang Ke’er had already seen through the situation and knew whose problem it was, otherwise, she wouldn’t have recklessly stepped forward.
“Who dares to touch me?” Jiang Ke’er gritted her teeth, standing firm and seemingly unperturbed.
This was the first time the soldiers had encountered such a brazen demon, and for a moment, they were intimidated.
Generally speaking, those who dared to flaunt their authority in front of officers either had influential relatives or direct influential relatives.
These common soldiers couldn’t gauge the situation and didn’t dare to act rashly…
After all, this was a world where human lives were as cheap as grass and power reigned supreme.
For their own sakes, they were afraid of accidentally offending someone they couldn’t afford to provoke.
As the most unprovokable being in the entire Divine Land, Jiang Ke’er had some self-awareness.
Besides being the master of a cauldron pursued by the whole world, she had no other noteworthy connections.
But others didn’t know that!
So, her attitude absolutely couldn’t soften. It was like fencing; if you softened, you lost!
The soldier’s expression turned serious, adopting a formal, business-like demeanor, and he loudly addressed Jiang Ke’er: “Who goes there? State your name!”
Heh, I’ve been waiting for that line.
Jiang Ke’er lifted her skirt, stepped onto a large stone, cleared her throat, and proudly declared:
“I am—Ke’er Jiang I of Snow Birth! The Unfrozen, the Dragon Vein Discoverer, the Destroyer of the Three Northern Sects, the Guardian of the Demon Race and the Demon Race’s Foremost Divine Catcher, King of All Locks, the God of Gamblers of the 768th East Sheng Divine Continent Session, the Future Dragon Slayer… And also, Thief·Ah Fei·Miracle Single Pull·Absolutely Not a Fluffball·Jiang Ke’er!”
