The next morning, Han Jisung, Song Yuan and Bogsu continued their journey back to camp none of them speaking of the previous night but the two men would occasionally throw a skeptical glance at Bogsu who was oblivious to the turmoil she had caused in their hearts and mind.
"That's weird, I should be hearing horses marching here at high speed, or did the army leave us here to fend for ourselves." Bosgu thought out loud sneering, she had taken advantage of the silence to listen carefully incase anyone was coming but apart from the birds chirping there was no other significant animal made noise to be heard.
"They would not do that, we are all key officials." Han Jisung said trying to dissolve Bogsu's ridiculous thought as he called out.
"Incase you seem to have forgotten, the new key official there is your son and I think maybe he got a little bit chummy with the power and don't want to let go any more." Bogsu analysed which made Han Jisung go silence as he thought deeply about what she might be saying is indeed true.
Song Yuan was not really paying much attention to their conversation as he kept glaring at Bogsu's ankle like he wanted to rip her robes and check by himself whether or not the anklet was on her ankle.
"Yuan Yuan, I did not know you had a leg fetish." Bogsu suddenly paused her steps causing Song Yuan to walk right into her, he cleared his throat in embarrassment as he thought that he has been caught by her.
"What are you talking about woman?! Don't say nonsense like that." Song Yuan reprimanded her before walking ahead leaving her behind.
Maybe he was only imagining things, although his little pervert had the tendency of becoming like Bogsu he was hoping she did not, and if really Bogsu was his little pervert, she should have recognised him too or maybe at least had an inkling but Bogsu did not show any signs of these at all.
A tiger's sudden snarl was heard as Alice appeared at of nowhere blocking their path with Lin Wei bound on top of her tied with golden ropes.
Bogsu's eyes sharpened as she recognised the ropes, it was used to restrain a cultivator's power and as for Alice she did not seem to be herself.
"Hey girl, what wrong?" Bogsu asked as she carefully approached Alice trying to place her hands on her head.
Before Bogsu's hand could make contact with Alice's head, Alice brought out her claws and slashed at Bogsu aiming for her face, Song Yuan swooped in dragging Bogsu backwards by her waist.
Due to the sudden movement, Bogsu landed her face on Song Yuan's sturdy chest, "I wish I could stay here longer handsome but I have to find out who dared to take control over my Alice." Bogsu said in a cold voice as her eyes went through all the trees in that vicinity.
"Gotcha." She said in a low voice jumping up leading Song Yuan and Han Jisung to take care of Alice, Lin Wei was not much if a threat since he was bound by the ropes.
Alice was another a mind control spell, like every perfect thing comes with a weakness so did the spell.
You can only control the subject at a short distance and must not be too far from it or else it would back fire and start to eat up one's inside and if the distance is too far and the person carrying out the spell is not an experienced cultivator he or she could damage their spiritual roots which meant starting from the beginning of Qi gathering stage, it was that much power draining.
"Seems like you are going to leak." Bogsu said leaning on a tree as she watched Bai Yushen sweat his heart out just to focus on.
As expected he did not mind her causing Bogsu to do a slight pout, "You really are not going to pay attention to me huh?" She asked going closer to him and ended up sitting beside him.
"Hey?" She whispered into his ears but Bai Yushen did not give out any response, he was really gunning for Song Yuan and Han Jisung who were engaged in a fierce battle with Alice.
"Seems you are really serious about this, then I better leave you to it." Bogsu said standing up and dusting her clothes as she jumped away from the branch where he was sitting on.
In truth, she just went behind and stood there, it was best to catch the enemy when their guard is lowered, their expression would be funny and at the same time the shock on their faces was priceless.
As Bogsu expected, when Bai Yushen no longer sensed her presence he finally let out the air he had no knowledge he had been holding up.
"That was quick." Bogsu said at out of no where startling Bai Yushen to the extent he fell down from the tree landing on his butt.
Thankfully for him, he did not stay on a branch that was far away from the ground so apart from his throbbing butt there was no other damage.
"Hah, now see let me warn you." Bogsu said with a chilly gaze as she jumped down and approached him with her suffocating cold aura seeping out, "Never you attack one of my own, or else you would regret why you ever existed, and don't even try to use those flimsy skills of yours next time, I view them as pathetic, worthless and childish." Bogsu snorted before leaving him sitting on the ground with a stunned expression on his face.
Apart from Li Yehan, Bai Yushen was not sure he had seen any other woman that commanded strength and beauty although Bogsu was the kind to use under handed tricks does not mean she was any less talented as any men out there.
She was exceptional, Bai Yushen thought as his eyes glistened with admiration and adoration in them.
