"Eh? Why is Mu Ying in such a hurry?"
Someone caught sight of Mu Ying's swiftly passing figure and exclaimed in surprise, recalling that the girl usually appeared serene and composed, unhurried in everything she did except when engaging in battle when she would become as decisive and rapid as a thunderbolt.
"Could something have happened?"
A few people glanced at each other and followed her.
As they walked, they began to feel that something was off—the main gate of the territory didn't seem to be in this direction?
"She's stopped!"
"What's she doing here?"
"Look quick, what's that thing!"
They saw a humanoid creature standing outside the low walls of the territory, barely taller than the walls themselves.
Pointy ears, red eyes, a hooked nose, green skin, short stature, robust limbs—its appearance was extremely incongruous.
