"No one touches the wild game; we’ll take it. Name your price!" The eunuch arrogantly lifted his half-dead, fish-like eyes but kept them fixed on Yusuf Zuck, having already discerned that Yusuf was the leader of the eleven. Joy Webb didn’t speak, nor did Sarah Webb and the other two women. They all waited for Yusuf Zuck to respond, unsure of what his reply might be. However, Yusuf seemed to treat the eunuch as if he were air. He merely glanced at him and then took out the Small Engraving Knife to cut off a slice of the deliciously crispy meat, handing it over with a smile: "Sarah, Xuemei, Bingmei, the meat is ready, have a taste?" "Uh..." Sarah and the others were stunned, and Joy Webb’s forehead broke out in sweat because their lord was... simply too dismissive! "How dare you!" The eunuch suddenly raised his voice, his tone shifting from that of a duck to that of a rooster, his eyes bulging in intensity, as he released his imposing presence, enveloping everyone within it! "Wow~" Suddenly, Joy Webb and the others felt they couldn’t move, an oppressive sensation that felt like being submerged in a freezing abyss. However, while Joy Webb and the others couldn’t move, it didn’t mean Yusuf couldn’t. Yusuf’s smile remained unchanged as he lightly swiped the Small Engraving Knife forward. It was as if he casually waved his hand — utterly relaxed and natural. Then... with a crash, the eunuch’s oppressive realm shattered, forcing him to retreat three or four steps! "What?" The eunuch was so shocked he nearly jumped, letting out a shrill scream, visibly agitated! "Old Li, mind your manners!" Suddenly, a noblewoman approached gracefully, accompanied by several children, some maids, and two knife-wielding guards shining with brilliant light! Yusuf secretly inhaled. Whether it was the noblewoman herself or the two knife-wielding guards, they were all God-Emperor Realm experts, and the noblewoman was even stronger than the eunuch. Yet, her regal elegance and calm demeanor seemed unrelated to her formidable strength! The noblewoman arrived, and the eunuch immediately whispered to her, "Master, something’s amiss!" The noblewoman cast a warning glance at the eunuch and continued forward, stopping ten meters from Yusuf and bowing slightly: "My servant was unruly and disturbed you; I apologize on his behalf." Her voice was soft and melodious, like divine music, very pleasing to the ear. Hearing it, Joy Webb, Sarah Webb, and the others found it hard to maintain their posture, because this woman’s gentleness and politeness made it hard to hold their ground. Yusuf, naturally, couldn’t lack composure either, so he stood up and saluted: "No need for such courtesy, Miss. Eunuchs are as they are; their bodies are handicapped, so their minds are too!" Yusuf called her Miss because, despite her appearance as a married woman, he could tell she was still a Complete Body! "What?" The eunuch was shocked; the other side knew he was a eunuch? And even called his mistress "Miss"? Could he really discern this? The noblewoman’s eyes sparkled briefly, and her two knife-wielding guards behind her were equally astonished. It must be noted, Yusuf’s bodily aura was that of a very ordinary person, pitifully weak, and those around him were equally unremarkable. Yet he could discern old Li was a eunuch? Tell at a glance that his master wasn’t a true woman? Furthermore, he seemed to have repelled old Li earlier! This man was anything but simple! The noblewoman took a few curious glances at Yusuf, finding him mysterious and his remarks quite intriguing, carrying a subtle jab! Just as the noblewoman was about to speak again, Yusuf suddenly laughed and beckoned, "Hey, kids, come over! This is roasted meat; it’s delicious. Xuemei, Bingmei, Sarah, hurry and carve some for the kids." "Alright, alright!" Joy Webb, leading the three women, proactively started carving the meat with care! "Thank you, big brother!" "Thank you, big brother!" The children were well-mannered, but perhaps due to travel exhaustion, combined with the enticing aroma, their innocent enthusiasm was evident. "Go ahead and taste it!" The noblewoman smiled as she led the children over, accepting the roasted meat from Joy Webb and the others! "Old Li, you should leave now, and everyone else too." The noblewoman glanced at Yusuf with a smile, "May I sit here too?" "Master..." The eunuch and others were anxious; what was their master’s status compared to these people? How could they sit together? "Leave!" The noblewoman turned and sternly said, "Leave!" She didn’t bark the order but firmly commanded it! Everyone, including the maids, retreated to their own camp! Joy Webb fetched a small stool, and the noblewoman, unfettered, sat amongst them, bringing out her own small knife and starting to eat. "It’s very tasty; what kind of meat is this? I’ve never had it before!" she asked curiously. "This is rare fatty meat, a local specialty from the mountain, unavailable in the central plains!" Joy Webb answered. "Oh." The noblewoman nodded and continued to eat, taking three small bites in total. After finishing four small pieces of meat, she let the children eat, frequently wiping their mouths. "Where is this gentleman from?" After a moment of silence, she asked casually. "From the nearby mountain wilderness!" Yusuf replied with a subtle smile. "And where are you headed?" the noblewoman continued to inquire. "I haven’t planned it out yet, but eventually, I want to see the world out there!" "See the world, see the world!" The noblewoman muttered after him, then smiled wryly and looked at Yusuf curiously: "How did the gentleman see that old Li’s body wasn’t whole? And how did he manage to repel him?" She didn’t ask Yusuf how he realized she was still unmarried, only inquired about old Li. "Just minor trickery." Yusuf shook his head with a smile. The latest_epɪ_sodes are on_the novel⟡fire.net The noblewoman asked no more, resuming her gentle care for the children. A little while later, after the children had eaten their fill and played around the campfire, the noblewoman stood to leave: "Many thanks for the meal, good sir; take this as gratitude. Should you face difficulties in the future, present this at the Royal City’s Sir Gould residence, and someone there will assist you!" The lady removed her hairpin, placing it gently on her seat! Yusuf intended to refuse, but the lady had already gathered the children to leave. "Sir Gould residence?" After she left, Sarah and the others began to admire the hairpin. Joy Webb suddenly shuddered, saying, "It’s rumored that Jake King has a Sir Gould, and Sir Gould has a sole daughter, but she’s already wed the King! This news is recent; could this woman be Sir Gould’s daughter?" "Heh, no matter who she is, it has no bearing on us. Hurry, finish eating, and then sleep!" Yusuf shook his head and laughed, "You three play rock-paper-scissors; the winner gets the hairpin!" "What is rock-paper-scissors?" "I’ll teach you about it..." Meanwhile, upon returning to her camp, the noblewoman, after settling the children, commanded a maid to summon old Li! A moment later, old Li entered the tent, bewildered, as the noblewoman had removed her cloak, sitting on a large chair high above him! Old Li couldn’t bear the master’s scrutinizing gaze and kept his head lowered: "Old Li, you’ve been in my service for a year and three months, but I find your nature unfit for my palace, so I direct you to return to the royal palace; your services here are no longer needed!" "Ah... Master, I..." The eunuch fell to his knees, too frightened to explain. "You know my disposition; I won’t repeat myself, so please... leave!" At that moment, the noblewoman was sovereign-like!
