The little ball looked up. Ji Fengyan's face, holding a conflicted expression, filled its line of sight. Ignorantly, it thought its own mother had finally embraced it and happily wagged its tiny tail. It snuggled in Ji Fengyan's arms and called out in a frail voice.
"Mother… mother…"
Ji Fengyan's heart instantly softened.
She took a deep breath and gazed at Liu Huo. It stunned him to see the resolution in her eyes, but then smiled helplessly.
Ji Fengyan turned around and looked at the dazed soldiers.
"Today, we only saw one Demon King."
The congregation of soldiers were dumbstruck.
Ji Fengyan continued. "This little fellow will follow me from now on."
Ji Fengyan's announcement was already very clear. She had no intention of reporting the existence of this little Demon King to the Emperor.
