The red-robed man looked at them icily. “If you go against the Sky Alpha Cult, you will all die without a burial place!”

Su Ying gave a scornful sneer and looked at Xiao Jin. “I’ll leave the interrogation to you. He was probably the one who sent those birds yesterday. I also encountered a group of snakes at night, but after 1 caught him, the snakes disappeared. You interrogate him properly. I’ll go in and rest for a while.”

Xiao Jin nodded. “Alright.”

Su Ying wasn’t worried about Xiao Jin’s ability to interrogate people at all. After explaining everything to him, she turned around and returned to her room.

Su Ying had just entered the room and sat down when Lin Zhuyu poked her head in. “Mistress, do you want to eat birds? Roasted ones.”

Su Ying rubbed her famished stomach and nodded. “Yes.”

“I will go and prepare it for you, Mistress.”

Su Ying thought for a moment, then got up and went to the hall to wait.

Ever since the flock of birds attacked, they had been eating bird meat for all three meals a day. However, with the culinary skills of Murong De and Hea Shouyi, the bird meat would be turned into a different delicacy every time so they didn’t get sick of it.

Lin Zhuyu had just walked out of the door when Su Ying smelled the fragrance of charcoal roasting. The roasted bird had been heated over the charcoal fire again, and the fragrance of the meat became even stronger when mixed with the aroma of the charcoal fire.

Lin Zhuyu brought in a large portion of roasted bird meat and served a large bowl of vegetable dough bits soup.

“This is a soup made from the dried wild vegetables I picked from the mountains. Uncle Hea said that eating too much roasted bird meat will cause a lot of heatiness. Coincidentally, the wild vegetables are cooling and can reduce the body’s heatiness. If you eat them together, you won’t fall sick.”

Upon hearing this, Su Ying couldn’t help but sigh. Their meals were really good now. Not only were the meals filling, but the chefs were also very particular about nutrition.

Su Ying took a sip of the dough bits soup and felt a slightly bitter taste on the tip of her tongue. However, after swallowing it, there was a bit of a sweet taste inside her mouth. It was very refres.h.i.+ng and appetizing.

She ate three bowls of soup ladled into bowls as big as washbowls before she was full. She had also eaten more than ten roasted birds.

Su Ying burped contentedly and was about to return to her room to take a nap when she saw Xiao Jin walk over.

“Are you done interrogating him?”

Xiao Jin nodded. “You can say so.”

Su Ying turned around and entered the room. She casually poured a cup of warm water, but before she could take a sip, Xiao Jin smoothly and nimbly took the cup from her hand and drank the water.

Su Ying was utterly speechless.

Xiao Jin took a sip and smiled when he saw her hand paused in mid-air. He placed the remaining half-cup of water back into her hand. “It’s just right to drink it now.”

Su Ying glanced at the cup and decided to finish up the water in it. The temperature was indeed just right.

“What did he say?”

“Nothing.”

“You call that done?”

Xiao Jin took out a red token and a red pouch from his pocket.

Su Ying gestured to the objects with her chin. “What are those?”

“I found them on him. He was nervous when I found them.”

Su Ying raised an eyebrow. “Proof that these things are very important to him.”

Xiao Jin murmured his concurrence and added, “Do you still remember Tiger Might and the others saying that they can’t sneak into the territory of the Sky Alpha Cult, even if they dress up as them, because the wild beasts inside can distinguish their scents?”

However, there were so many people working for the Sky Alpha Cult. It was impossible for those wild beasts to distinguish each and every one of them. Therefore, it was very likely that those beasts distinguish them from outsiders through something on these people.

Su Ying opened the pouch. There was some ground medicinal powder inside. It had a faint medicinal smell, but it wasn’t strong, so even if one carried it, ordinary people wouldn’t be able to smell anything strange, but animals could.

“I’ll give it a try.” Su Ying picked up the pouch and walked over to the big tiger in the backyard.

When the tiger, who was lying on the ground and pretending to be asleep, heard Su Ying’s footsteps, its two ears instantly perked up. A pair of light-colored tiger eyes slowly opened and locked onto Su Ying.

She had never unchained this tiger because a beast that had a master in the past would be more difficult to tame than a completely wild one. In order to prevent it from accidentally hurting people, she could only keep it chained up first.

“Don’t be nervous. I’ll show you something you’re familiar with.”

The tiger’s ears twitched as it looked at Su Ying in bewilderment. Su Ying then placed the pouch in front of it.

The tiger’s nose twitched, and he moved closer to sniff the pouch. The wariness in its eyes gradually faded, and it was no longer on its guard against Su Ying.

Su Ying’s eyes narrowed. She was now certain that this thing was used to differentiate between outsiders and their own kind.

After confirming her guess, Su Ying turned around and returned to her room.

“With these two things, I can take the opportunity to sneak into the base camp of the Sky Alpha Cult.”

Su Ying placed the pouch on the table and picked up the red token to take a look. If she remembered correctly, one of the two groups that had come to them directly was the black-robed men, while the other was the gray-robed men, according to Xiao Jin. This time, the person who had come was dressed in red. Could it be that these Sky Alpha Cult members used color to differentiate people’s ranks?

This token was probably the symbol of this red-robed person’s ident.i.ty.

Xiao Jin immediately realized what she was planning upon hearing her. “What do you want to do?”

Su Ying didn’t plan on hiding anything. “Take these things and sneak in for a look. Let’s see what those Sky Alpha Cult people are.”

Xiao Jin frowned in disapproval. “It’s too risky.”

Su Ying plopped down on the chair. “Nothing ventured, nothing gained. We can’t just sit back and keep on enduring beatings.

“And don’t suggest that you will go. I mean, you know the defense installation of the Tiger Base better than me. You’re more suitable to remain here and stand guard. In the entire Tiger Base, no one is more suitable than me to infiltrate their place.”

Xiao Jin had no way to counter Su Ying’s words.

“I know. Even if I don’t agree, you will still go.” She would never change her decision easily. He was just a little angry at himself for not being able to protect her under his wings.

Su Ying looked at the angry frustration on his face and patted his shoulder. “I, Su Ying, have never been a fragile flower who hides behind anyone. If you have the ability, then stand by my side and fight alongside me. We will advance and retreat together.”

Xiao Jin held her hand and slowly wrapped her dainty hand in his big palm. “Alright. Let’s advance and retreat together.”

Su Ying laughed and punched his fist, which was twice as big as hers. “Then I’ll leave the Tiger Base to you.”

“Mm-hmm. You have to be careful.”

“No problem.”

That night, Su Ying brought the big tiger out of the Tiger Base.

The tiger had already been in the territory of the Sky Alpha Cult for so long that it naturally knew where its headquarters was. Su Ying sat cross-legged on its back as it plodded and swayed into the mountains.

The night in the deep mountains was exceptionally quiet. It was so quiet that only the whistling of the wind and the heavy panting of the tiger could be heard.

Su Ying closed her eyes and gradually slowed down her breathing, regulating her breathing so that she could be in her best condition before she arrived.

After an unknown period of time, the tiger suddenly stopped.

Su Ying slowly opened her eyes. What came into sight was a city wall that towered into the clouds..
