Mythical Beasts: The Useless Lady Is a Genius! Chapter 31

Probe

Kong Rui suddenly felt a pain in her chest.

She looked in the direction of the garden and could vaguely sense that something had happened to the little phoenix!

Just as Kong Rui was about to take two steps forward, a figure suddenly blocked her path.

Kong Rui took a closer look and couldn't help but take half a step back.

It was Yin Ling!

Yin Ling's sudden appearance meant that Kong Rui had found the right place!

Kong Rui suppressed the excitement in her heart and stepped forward again.

Yin Ling raised her hand and blocked Kong Rui. “Miss Li Ling, this isn't a place you can enter! Please go back!”

Yin Ling spoke politely, but his tone was commanding.

Kong Rui narrowed her eyes at Yin Ling and snorted. “Even my aunt can't control where I go. Since when did a servant like you have the right to control me?”

Yin Ling's expression darkened.

Although Yin Ling served the queen, he was also from a prominent clan.

In front of these illegitimate daughters, they had never treated themselves as servants.

However, Li Ling had always relied on the fact that she was the queen's niece to get her way and boss them around. Yin Ling had tolerated her for a long time!

Yin Ling's tone became even colder. “Miss Li, please go back!”

“Are there any secrets in there?” Kong Rui pretended to be curious and poked her head in the direction of the garden. “They let a watchdog like you guard this place?!”

Yin Ling secretly gritted his teeth, wishing he could rush up and tear Kong Rui's mouth apart.

However, he suppressed his emotions and took a deep breath before saying, “Miss Li, if you have anything to ask, just go back and ask the Queen. This is my duty. Please don't make things difficult for me!”

Knowing that her provocation was probably useless, Kong Rui pursed her lips.

If she could force Yin Ling to make a move first, she could even take the opportunity to investigate the situation in the garden.

If she attacked first, she would be suspected by the queen and the others.

However, since she had already determined the approximate location of the little phoenix, Kong Rui believed that they would meet soon!

Kong Rui looked disappointed and shrugged. “Why should I go just because you want me to? Will you be happy if I get scolded?”

“I don't have time to argue with you!” Kong Rui turned around and walked in the other direction.

Yin Ling didn't say anything, but gave the female slave beside him a look.

The slave girl didn't dare to delay and hurriedly got up to chase after Kong Rui. “I'll lead the way!”

Kong Rui knew that these people would definitely be worried if they didn't watch her leave the palace.

In any case, she was prepared to go back, so she would just go along with these people's wishes.

Kong Rui left the palace and went straight back to the Li family. She still had some things to discuss with Little Lion.

In order to save spiritual power, Kong Rui had Little Lion return to its original form after the opening ceremony.

Some of the Li family's people saw the griffin's majestic appearance, but some didn't.

“Ling Ling, you've really done our family proud today!” The Third Elder, who was in charge of the Li family's affairs, welcomed Kong Rui at the entrance.

He looked around Kong Rui, but he didn't see the griffin.

“You've worked hard today. Why don't you let me take care of this griffin for you? I guarantee that you can continue to dominate the arena with it tomorrow!” The Third Elder chuckled, as if he could already foresee Kong Rui winning.

Kong Rui nodded at the Third Elder. “There's no need for you to worry, Elder. I'll take care of the griffin myself. I'll go back and rest first!” With that, Kong Rui ignored the Third Elder, who was in midair, and entered the courtyard alone.

The Third Elder retracted his hand awkwardly, coughed twice, and shouted at the guards at the door, “What are you all doing! Don't you guys know you should report Miss Ling's return?”

The two guards were blamed for no reason, but they didn't dare to say anything.

Not long after Kong Rui returned, someone rushed into the courtyard to report that she had returned.

The Li family's courtyard was in an uproar because Kong Rui had ridden an ancient divine beast into the spirit beast competition!

Not only was the Li family bustling, but more people in the imperial capital were surprised by the appearance of the griffin.

After all, other than little phoenix, there was actually another ancient divine beast griffin today, and it was an adult griffin.

Many people lamented that the Li family did a good job maintaining confidentiality. The other families had no idea at all.

Otherwise, it was impossible for the Li family to gain such a huge advantage!

The news that the Li family had obtained an ancient spirit beast quickly spread throughout the imperial capital.
