Having not changed her outfit for a month, Chun's sudden transformation drew even Chunfangs attention, albeit only momentarily.
While Chun's figure and beauty were not lacking in Chunfangs eyes as her brother, his sister would never be perceived as a beauty.
Boss, how do I look? Chunu twirled before Bay by you.
her outfit fitting her perfectly.
There's not much difference.
It would look even better if you tied your hair up.
Bayu replied before she could speak further.
Chun Fong interjected.
Who asked you? Chun shot a fierce glare at Chunfong but obediently tied her hair up as they were soon to depart.
The attire is aesthetically pleasing and fits remarkably well.
However, it seems you have taken too few garments.
I shall procure a few more for you shortly.
There is no need for such formality.
Although Bayou suggested that she could take more Chunwe with commendable politeness only selected two pieces sufficient for her needs and did not emerge with an armful of clothing.
"Leader, this is more than enough," Chunu remarked, feeling a touch of embarrassment.
"Very well, take it.
It's yours," she conceded.
At that moment, Chun Fong approached, grasping Chun's wrist and pulling her away.
"Leader, we are heading to the Bayan mountain range.
" Chunfong exclaimed, waving to Bayou, while Chun struggled and chastised her brother.
Chunfong, your behavior is truly discourteous.
Chapter 276.
Progress of the dwarves in the White Rock Mountains.
Xiao Yiani remained immersed in slumber, oblivious to the world outside, while two black stockings fluttered in the breeze at her window.
The past few days have been rather uneventful for her.
Aside from orchestrating the dwars in their quest for resources to forge equipment, she spent her time engaging in world chat and then retreating to sleep.
After all, there was little else for her to occupy herself with within the castle as all the dwarves were diligently at work.
This left her reliant on the dwarves at the front lines of Erd city to earn experience through their battles, resulting in a painfully slow progression.
As of now, Xiaoi's level barely reached the rank of a level six commander of a rather feeble standing.
Yet, she bore no concern over this.
After all, her role was primarily logistical, and a slight deficiency in strength was acceptable.
The siblings did not teleport directly from the main fortress to Aman city.
Instead, they traversed through a portal to reach Xiao Lianua as she was entrusted with its management by Bayou.
The siblings were unaware of the circumstances and sought to gather information from her.
Our leader has been quite kind to us.
Yet, from our observations over the past few days, she does not appear to be a heartless individual, nor does she seem like one who would easily subjugate her subjects.
Chunfo whispered softly to Chun within the palace.
I concur.
I believe the same.
Chunwen nodded in agreement.
What do you know? Share your thoughts.
Chun foam shot her a sidelong glance knowing her grasp of the situation was tenuous.
"Oh, do tell first.
I want to see if her thoughts align," she urged.
"I suspect that perhaps our leader was entirely unaware of the situation in the Emerald Hills and that Xiao Liu acted on her own accord, assuming we had willingly submitted, treating us as friends.
" This perception starkly contrasts with a notion of facing death for non-submission.
Chinfo mused, feeling deceived by Xiao Liu as cunning.
Indeed, I noticed that as well.
Given our leader's character, if we did not submit, she would likely simply disregard us rather than resort to indiscriminate slaughter.
Individuals who present one face yet harbor another behind the scenes are quite detestable.
What is the term? Shun pondered.
That would be two-faced.
However, perhaps we should express our gratitude to her.
After all, since our allegiance, we have been spared from the threat of death.
Unlike our days in the Emerald Hills where we faced constant peril, Chonfo acknowledged realizing that Xiaoli and Shua had in a sense aided them more so benefiting Bayou.
As fellow subjects of Bayou, it is prudent for us to maintain harmonious relations, he added.
Of course, I'm well aware of that.
Rest assured, I am no child, she responded, emphasizing the importance of Bayou<unk>s favorable treatment towards them.
Otherwise, their resentment towards Xiao Liianua would have been palpable.
After exchanging a few hushed words, the two entered Xiao Liu's castle.
Upon learning from a dwarf that Xiao Lianu was still asleep, Chunu erupted in frustration.
What? While we're out fighting for our lives, she dares to sleep at this hour.
The dwarf trembled, fearful of speaking, as he recognized that the two before him were also subordinates of that esteemed lady, their ranks no lower than his own.
"Enough! Enough!" Chunfong interjected, pulling Chunweb back.
The dwarf ventured into the castle to report.
Yet, he dared only to stand outside the door and knock timidly.
The incessant knocking roused Xiao Leian from her slumber.
"What is it?" she inquired.
The voice of Xiao Lianua echoed through the room, prompting the dwarf to promptly announce the arrival of two subordinates from that esteemed individual.
Xiao Yiansha felt a wave of embarrassment and hurriedly peered through the window, catching sight of Chun and Chunfong.
In a fluster, she hastily pulled away the fluttering black stockings from the window.
Yet, this scene did not escape Chun's notice.
Chun Schwez eyelids twitched, her expression one of amusement.
At that moment, she could only scoff internally, questioning the necessity of wearing such an item for an entire month, having been a well- behaved girl throughout her life.
Chun had never dawned such attire and could not comprehend the fixation some girls had with it.
Before long, Xiao Yianiwear rushed outside, her hair in disarray, having merely washed her face.
She was acutely aware that the siblings sudden arrival must be due to some task assigned by Bayou.
"Please come in," she urged.
Her demeanor surprisingly commendable as she displayed no condescending attitude towards her own people, instead exuding a sense of calm.
"This time there is indeed a task at hand.
But there's no need to rush.
Let's discuss it inside," Chinfong stated.
Just as Chun was about to make a sarcastic remark, Chunfong took her hand, leading her inside.
Huh? Xiao Yianua followed closely behind as the trio enter the castle.
Within the castle, the dwarves presented the siblings with specially crafted beverages from their kin.
This is a specialty of our dwarven race.
Do give it a try.
The flavor is quite delightful.
Xiao Yinshu remarked with a smile.
The boss finds the progress of your dwarven kingdom rather sluggish and has summoned us for assistance.
Just tell us about the situation on your end.
Chunwear replied, pouting and crossing her arms, casting a sideways glance at Xiaoli and Shua without a hint of politeness.
Yet, she could not resist the allure of the delicious drink before her.
Taking a sip, Chun's eyes widened as she glanced at Chinfong, her gaze darting back and forth between him and the beverage, seemingly conveying that it was indeed quite delightful.
Chinfong remained silent.
Next, Xiao Yinshi proceeded to recount the intelligence gathered regarding the dwarven kingdom's current state.
Following the loss of the supply city of Eid, the Firebeard clan had been annihilated under the combined assault of the two major clans.
The clan leader of the Firebeard, refusing to surrender, was killed due to familial ties.
The two major clans assimilated the remnants of the Firebeard clan's power and honored the clan leader with a grand burial.
Mice, leveraging his former noble status, had infiltrated the clan's territory the previous night to steal the body of the Firebeard leader.
