"Princess Your Highness, it's taken care of," Taotie said as he hoisted his axe, chuckling merrily.
Fang Xiaocao raised an eyebrow and sized up Taotie, commenting, "Nice build, just a bit too dark; you almost look like you don't steal kasayas anymore."
Having said that, Fang Xiaocao stepped over Tong Yue's corpse and continued forward.
"Been feeling a bit overheated lately..."
"Hope I won't get a nosebleed…"
Fang Xiaocao murmured to herself.
Taotie looked confused, scratching his head.
For a moment, he couldn't tell whether his princess was complimenting him or mocking him.
"Just take it as a compliment, I guess."
Under his breath, Taotie shouldered his axe and scurried after Fang Xiaocao.
With the place so dangerous, he needed to protect Princess Your Highness, lest demons mistake her for Tang Seng and capture her.
Fang Xiaocao and Taotie walked about five hundred meters along the corridor, and suddenly the view opened up.
A large hall appeared before them.
