Chapter 67 67. The New Maid

After Su Yaoyao left, the frightened expression on Noah's face disappeared instantly, as if it had never appeared.

The corners of his mouth rose slightly, revealing a cold smile.

He raised his hand and grasped the collar, and purple electricity flowed out from his fingertips.

In just a blink of an eye, he easily took off the rage value detection collar with graceful and smooth movements, and then casually placed it in the hands of a black-robed subordinate.

"You go and keep watch. If the little female comes back, report to me immediately."

Noah's voice had the crispness of a young boy's, but it was chilling to the bone, making people shudder.

He knew very well that he could not stay out of the water for a long time, and his body's instinct urged him to take the opportunity to go back and take a bath to replenish the water that was gradually being lost.

"Yes, Lord Noah." The black-robed subordinate responded respectfully, with a hint of awe in his voice.

The city was bustling with activity and the market was packed with people.

Su Yaoyao moved curiously among the crowd, her eyes sparkling with excitement. A bright smile hung on her face. She looked at the lively scene in front of her that she had never seen before, her heart full of novelty.

This was her first time visiting the orc market.

The orcs here come and go, some are greeting customers warmly, some are bargaining, and everyone's face is filled with the breath of life, making her truly feel the atmosphere of fireworks.

The only complaint was that she was wearing a pair of ridiculously large shoes, which made a "tapping" sound with every step and was very strenuous.

Su Yaoyao frowned and couldn't help complaining, "These shoes are too big. It's hard to walk."

"There are no females in the city, so naturally there are no female clothes." Mingye walked ahead with his hands behind his back and steady steps. His voice was low and magnetic, but it was clearly audible in the noisy environment.

Su Yaoyao curled her lips and thought: That's true. After all, this is Mingye's territory. No normal female would come here, right? Unless she was kidnapped like me.

But... her eyes quickly scanned the surroundings, and a bold idea suddenly came to her mind.

Mingye didn't even send his men to follow him, and he was walking ahead on his own. Isn't this the perfect opportunity to escape?

The more Su Yaoyao thought about it, the more feasible it seemed, and her pace gradually slowed down.

She stopped, carefully made sure Mingye didn't look back, then quickly and quietly took off her shoes, her movements as light as a cat stealing fish.

"What? Don't you want to wear shoes again?" Mingye's low voice sounded without warning, like a thunder exploding in Su Yaoyao's ears.

"No, no, it seems like there's a stone stuck in my shoe. Let me check." Su Yaoyao was so scared that her heart almost jumped out of her throat. She put her shoes back on in a hurry.

She looked up at Mingye, but found that he did not turn back. She couldn't help but wonder: Does this guy have eyes on the back of his head?

Su Yaoyao didn't notice that the snake tattoo on Mingye's neck had quietly changed.

The snake head that was originally facing forward has now swam to the back of the neck. Its two small green eyes like green beans are flashing with strange light, staring at Su Yaoyao's every move without blinking.

At this moment, someone in the crowd spotted Mingye first and shouted excitedly, "Look! It's the Lord!"

This cry instantly swept through the entire street like a whirlwind. The orcs, who had been busy with their work, stopped their work, and smiles of surprise instantly bloomed on their faces, their eyes all turning in the direction of Mingye.

"It's really the Lord!" "It's been a long time since the Lord has personally inspected the area!"

Cheers rang out one after another, and many orcs immediately put down the goods in their hands and quickly gathered towards Mingye, their eyes full of reverence and love, as if they were welcoming a noble king.

"My lord, this is a chicken I raised myself. It's very fat. Please take it back and try it." A burly orc walked over with a smile on his face, holding a fat chicken in both hands and handed it to Mingye.

"No need." Mingye was about to refuse when another orc hurried over and stuffed a basket of brightly colored fruits into Mingye's hands.

"My Lord! This is a fruit I cultivated myself. It's very sweet. Please take it back and try it."

More and more orcs gathered around and gave Mingye their gifts, including fresh vegetables, homemade handicrafts, and various delicious foods.

In a short while, the gifts in Mingye's hands were piled as high as a small mountain.

Su Yaoyao watched all this curiously, her heart filled with shock.

She had never imagined that Mingye was so loved and respected by the orcs in his territory.

Isn't he a bad guy?
The scene before her was so different from the image in her mind that she couldn't help but have more doubts about Mingye.

At this chaotic and panicked moment, the crowd pushed and shoved, and Su Yaoyao felt a force suddenly pulling at the hem of her black robe.

She subconsciously tried to steady herself, but was still a step too late. With a slight "hiss" sound, the black robe slipped off in an instant amid the exclamations of the crowd and fell to the dusty ground.

"Female, female!" "Ah!" Several screams of fear instantly broke through the originally bustling and noisy streets.

The streets that were once bustling with people were suddenly deserted, as if they had been cast under a spell.

The goods on the street stalls were still shaking slightly, but the male orcs who were bargaining and shouting just now were now all like seeing a flood and a beast, and they fled into the surrounding shops and houses in panic.

Some even hid in the corner, daring only to show their eyes, looking tremblingly in the direction of Su Yaoyao.

Su Yaoyao was confused by this sudden change. She frowned, her eyes full of confusion, and looked around curiously.

She thought that the males outside the base would be like the pig orcs she met when she first arrived, greedy and vicious towards females.

But it was the first time I had seen these male orcs so scared.

Those orcs hiding in the dark couldn't stop trembling, their eyes filled with fear.

Whenever Su Yaoyao's gaze accidentally swept over and met theirs, they would immediately lower their heads in fear and shrink their bodies even tighter, like frightened deer.

"Don't be afraid, everyone. This is my new maid." A steady voice sounded at this time, breaking the weird and tense atmosphere.

Su Yaoyao turned her head and saw Mingye standing aside, speaking to everyone calmly.

"Maid?" Su Yaoyao widened her eyes and pointed at herself in disbelief, thinking to herself, why don't you just say that I was the commoner girl you kidnapped?
