Beneficial Union: Chasing A Rogue Wife

Chapter 511: Disturbance in the Immortal Domain

In the Immortal Domain

Out of nowhere, a large portal appeared in a vast forested wetland. With the help of tall trees surrounding it, the existence of the entrance was hidden from afar.  They were in a swamp that many called Vile East Swamp.

Not far from it was two famous areas. On the left side of the Vile East Swamp was a village that mostly consists of unregistered mercenaries.

While on the far right side were four huge boulders with some parts that have color red and green. If one looked closely at each boulder, they would see written scripts on it indicating their function, an entrance gate towards the Mortal Domain.

Before, the gate initially had a caretaker aside from the already strong spiritual energy-infused on the enormous rocks. This protects the passageway from any being or beast from entering that might cause havoc in the Mortal Domain.

At that moment, though, the gate was not working, and the caretaker was still not around.

The beasts that had resided in the Vile East Swamp were also not peaceful.

It was already known to be very dangerous even for strong cultivators because of the occasional poisonous flees that would appear after the rain. There were also the perfectly disguised quicksands that looked like usual ground.

However, since the gate was not working, beasts enticed with the magical properties of the boulders were fighting to get a part of it.

Beings that wanted to hunt these beasts for money or cultivation were also lurking on the area.

Probably because of all these changes in the Immortal Domain, no one noticed the portal inside the swamp appeared, or when a huge black hound got out of it.

"Look for it quickly!" Yen Mingjue commanded immediately as soon as the portal disappeared. The hound's body already shrinks back to its original size that was as big as a horse.

Xiao Shi did not delay and started making a call. "Croak! Croak!" She was serious as she made a loud sound of a frog.

"Louder! You need to be into it!"

With the urgency of Yen Mingjue's voice, Xiao Shi nodded thoughtfully. To make her master happy, she crouched to the ground in all fours, as she continued to 'croak' like a frog.

"Master, this may not be the place" She tried to persuade when nothing seems to be happening.

In truth, if Xiao Shi was not aware that what she was doing was something important, she already complained. This was the case even though she was always a loyal servant.

Yen Mingjue clicked his tongue. He agreed at Xiao Shi, but it was still annoying. "Frogs mostly stay in swamps. Why is that one so hard to look for?" He said, sounding dejected.

With a weak smile, Xiao Shi whispered respectfully, "Master, I agree. But, even if we see that frog, we do not have any payment to enter. How about I call out while looking for a good sacrifice?" She offered while still on the muddy ground still in all fours, not even caring about the dirt on the ground.

"Ah!" Yen Mingjue suddenly yelled and leaped towards Xiao Shi. Even when it passed through her, the hounds still continued. It did not take long for her to figure out thought that his master was running towards the Mortal Domain gate.

"Master! Be careful! There are quicksands here!" She reminded while running after.

"Don't bother with that! Continue calling!" Yen Mingjue demanded from afar with urgency.

After hearing that, Xiao Shi pursed her lips, her expression clearly unwilling. Despite that, she still moved in all fours.

She was left with no choice but to obey and complain silently because she knew how dire and urgent the situation was.

Xiao Shi runs, jumped like a frog as she continued to make 'croak' sounds even when she got out of the swamp.

"Brothers look at that girl! She's moving strangely!" Someone shouted not far from them.

Her gaze shifted to where it came from and saw that a group of men were not far from her. They seem to be mercenaries wanting to hunt the beasts nearby due to the carted cages behind them. Xiao Shi did not bother counting the cages, but she noticed that some of them were not vacant. 

Xiao Shi also saw that most of the men they were all clearly looking at her direction. One of the younger men was still pointing at her.

Ignoring them, Xiao Shi looked around for her master, but the hound seemed to have disappeared somewhere.

Since she could not miss out on the black hound in case it did sink into one of the quicksands, Xiao Shi returned to her task.

"Croak! Croak!" Xiao Shi then loudly made the sound. Since she was in a wide-open area, the frog sound that she produced was from her internal energy.

The men were startled before, someone laughed in mockery, then the rest followed.

However, Xiao Shi continued to ignore them as she jumped and run around without any fixed direction.

"Capture her. That woman seems to be a unique type of mixed breed." The leader of the men said. In the mortal domain, aside from high-level beasts, those that bring a lot of money were mixed breeds regardless of the kind. Anything unique and scarce was a sure fortune.

"Croak! Croak!" A sound came from near them. It was not loud enough that some failed to notice it. Not Xiao Shi, though. Her eyes brightened when she looked at men's direction.
