Chapter 421

His face could not be seen.

His height was close to three meters.

He did not look like a normal human either.

Three long, sharp spikes protruded from the top and back of his head.

Clearly!

That was not something a human would grow.

Looking closer!

His pupils were a crimson red.

Clearly!

This three-meter-tall humanoid creature.

Was not human.

A strange flute was tucked at its waist.

At this moment!

After it walked into this enormous palace!

All those yellow-sand phantom beasts!

Actually shrank away from it in fear, keeping their distance.

It respectfully greeted the Desert Queen above.

And at the same time, in the instant it lowered its head, it glanced at the surrounding group of yellow-sand phantom beasts with a smile.

Instantly, the group of phantom beasts was seized with terror. "Very good!"

"The traces of that group of desert dwellers have already been found!" "They've stubbornly resisted for all these years!"

"All along, hiding and skulking like rats, they've finally been found by us!" "Go and have them all wiped out!"

"I don't want to be felled by such a ridiculous tale as that of the Desert Sage!" Although she did not believe in any such thing as the Desert Sage.

Yet this legend.

In the woman's heart, was like a thorn.

As long as it was not dealt with for a single day, she would not have a single day of peace.

Even though she did not believe that the Desert Sage could stand against her.

Still!

She still wished to strangle that slim chance in its cradle. "Most willing to obey your command!" "My Queen, my lord!"

Lai Shouyi nodded with an expression of utter deference.

However!

Then he spoke again!

"Rats are such lovely creatures—how could one use such skulking and hiding to describe them!"

Lai Shouyi curved a smile.

Instantly, the surrounding yellow-sand phantom beasts were all struck with horror.

It was the first time they had ever seen a creature dare speak to their Queen in such a manner.

However!

The woman above, upon hearing Lai Shouyi's words.

Simply curved a smile.

"Useful rats are lovely; as for useless rats…"

At this point!

The Desert Queen, with a faintly meaningful smile, looked at Lai Shouyi—and instantly gave Lai Shouyi a tingling scalp.

Cold sweat kept beading on his forehead.

"I'll set out at once, my Queen, my lord!"

Lai Shouyi bowed respectfully with hands clasped.

Then!

He withdrew from this enormous palace.

"You lot may also withdraw!"

Seeing that all matters had been handed over.

The Desert Queen said to the group of yellow-sand phantom beasts.

Very quickly!

The entire palace had already become empty.

And at this moment!

Lai Shouyi walked out of the palace!

Likewise, that group of yellow-sand phantom beasts also walked out of this palace, chattering and squeaking among themselves.

Their faces showed relief.

As if they had just weathered some crisis.

And at this moment!

Lai Shouyi, who had not yet walked far in the distance.

Curved a hair-raising smile at the corner of his lips.

The next moment!
