However, as soon as she set foot in her territory, Chu Jing noticed a strange change.
Next to her stone house at the edge of the mountain, two newly dug caves had appeared out of nowhere.
She stopped in her tracks, tilting her head to look at the new cave entrances as her brow furrowed slightly.
Her mind flooded with questions.
'Who's the brilliant one who decided to redecorate the place so quietly?'
Before she could figure out what was going on, the sound of frantic footsteps suddenly echoed from the distance.
"Female Master! Where did you go? Do you know how worried we were?"
Jiang Ji shouted at the top of his lungs as he bounded over from the distance.
He came to an abrupt halt just three steps away from her.
He wrinkled his nose, and his expression soured. Taking a few small steps back, he questioned her with a look of disgust and suspicion.
"What did you do!?"
Jiang Ji's keen sense of smell was assaulted by a strange odor.
"I didn't... do anything."
