Chapter 153: Chapter 153 Follow Me

In the early morning, Li rarely woke up early.

Sure enough, in the reception hall, he encountered the six other Beast Husbands of Xiao Jinsheng.

Each one of them looked sullen.

Noticing his arrival, the gazes cast his way were sharp as cold knives.

"Where is my Female Master?" Shi Xie dropped his pretense, his chilling gaze locking onto Li.

The lips beneath Li’s half-mask curled into an amused smile. "My Female Master? She’s still resting."

"Don’t you think you’re going too far?" Yu Yunxiao snapped angrily.

Last night, when he returned to this Demon Territory, Xiao Jinsheng disappeared the moment he turned around.

What drawing lots, what random selection, what individual visits?

He wasn’t even given a chance!

"What was too far?" Li said indifferently. "I was tired, so I went to bed early. What does that have to do with you?"

"Heh, you were tired? As if she wasn’t tired too?" Mo Jiao sneered coldly.

"This has nothing to do with her," Li said with a smug smile. "It was me who tied her up and took her away."

Su Ye’s golden eyes flashed with hostility, glaring at Li. "Everyone else respects the house rules. Why must you be the exception?"

"Shi Xie broke the rules for two days straight, and no one said anything. Yet, you’re coming after me for just one day?" Li sneered, voice dripping with sarcasm. "Get your priorities straight."

Shi Xie’s icy blue eyes burned with fury, while outside the castle, the waves below the cliff surged violently.

It was as if, in the next moment, they would rise up and flood the Demon Territory.

"No matter the queue or scheduling rules, we all agreed upon them at the start," Huaiqing said calmly. Behind his glasses, his gaze carried a hidden coldness as he glanced at Li. "Since you were the first to break the rules, don’t blame the rest of us."

"Are you provoking me?" Li’s expression twisted into a cold smile. "Sorry, but in my entire life, I’ve never learned to be afraid."

"Then your life won’t last very long," Yu Yunxiao said with biting sarcasm.

Seeing that Li and Yu Yunxiao were about to start another argument, Que Zelian spoke up, "When will Xiao Jin likely wake up? Skipping breakfast for too long isn’t good for her health."

While the Mist Continent did have Healing Element Superpowers capable of curing most injuries and illnesses as long as one’s Star Level was high enough, maintaining a good routine was still beneficial for mental well-being.

"It’s only eight o’clock," Li replied. "I’ll have her eat breakfast before nine."

As he spoke, Li shot a wary glance at Que Zelian.

Truth be told, among these men, Que Zelian and Huaiqing irritated him the most.
