Chapter 1192: When Can We Bring Back Madam’s Body?

Xia Luoqiao looked at her delicate face in the mirror worriedly. She raised her hand and touched her face unhappily. “It’s all because I’ve been staying up late recently that my skin doesn’t look as good as before. More importantly, I haven’t been able to enter that building successfully. Lord She Qi will be angry if I delay any longer.”

As Xia Luoqiao spoke, an aura suddenly surged out from the tree beside her. Immediately after, a figure suddenly appeared on the tree. The figure seemed to have grown out of the tree. His skin was bark, and his lower body was directly connected to the tree. It looked like he was one with the tree.

“Xia Luoqiao…” A weak voice suddenly came from the figure.

Xia Luoqiao appeared shocked. She raised her hand and patted her chest. She then glared at the figure and shouted angrily, “Aiyo, are you courting death? You gave me a huge fright! What are you doing?”

The tree shadow seemed to be intimidated by her. It shrank its neck weakly and said carefully to her, “Lord She Qi asked me to come over and ask you how things are going. When can we bring back Madam’s body?”

Xia Luoqiao glanced at the tree figure unhappily and said in an unfriendly tone, “Do you think it’s that easy? I have to put in a lot of effort and am very tired! Besides, I’ll go back and report to Lord She Qi myself. I won’t waste my breath on a fat loser like you.”

“I… I’m sorry.” The tree figure seemed to be frightened by her and shrank its neck weakly.

Xia Luoqiao was furious when she saw the tree figure’s manner. She rolled her eyes and said angrily, “I don’t want to waste my breath on you. Hurry up and tell me where Lord She Qi is. I want to see him now.”

“Lord She Qi said that you didn’t do your job well, so he doesn’t want to see you. He also asked me to tell you not to go back if you can’t complete your task. Also, this is a Dharma artifact that Lord She Qi asked me to give you. You can use this thing to break through the protective shield around the 117 building. Lord She Qi said that he will give you one last chance tonight. If you don’t succeed, you won’t see him again in the future.” After the tree shadow finished speaking, it opened its mouth and spat out a long metal rod that was as long as a forearm. The tip of the rod was sharp, shining in the sunlight.

Xia Luoqiao immediately exploded when she heard this. She pounced forward and grabbed the tree figure. “What do you mean by that? How can Lord She Qi not allow me to go back because of such a small matter?! It must be you sowing discord behind my back again, right?!”

The tree figure was frightened by her stern expression. It immediately retreated into the tree and disappeared.

The surface of the tree returned to normal. It was amazing to see.

Xia Luoqiao was so angry that she kicked the tree and threw a tantrum. “How annoying. Lord She Qi is so mean. He actually bullied me like this.”

However, although Xia Luoqiao said that, her eyes were filled with infatuation.

She picked up the Dharma artifact on the ground and said with a smile, “But Lord She Qi still takes care of me. He even prepared such a good weapon for me. I must perform well. I can’t disappoint Lord She Qi no matter what.”
