because of Xiao Yuge. She was so unwilling."Well, well, if it isn't Miss Xiao, the young lady of the Xiao family What, are you feeling wronged" At that moment, Jiang Zhiyi, the flamboyant daughter of..."Mingyang, immediately send someone to check on the princess's whereabouts. See where she went" Qian Tingxuan clenched his fist, this little thing actually left without even saying hello, he must be punished when she returns.

"The princess is gone" Ming Yang was clearly taken aback.

"What are you still doing Hurry up!" Qian Tingxuan saw him standing there dumbfounded and couldn't help but get even more anxious.

"Yes! This lowly one will immediately have someone check! No! This lowly one will personally lead the search!" Mingyang knew that the young princess was not there, and the king's spirit had been lost half of it. He had to bring the young princess back as soon as possible.

After Mingyang left, Qian Tingxuan also always felt uneasy. Perhaps he was used to Xiaoge being by his side. Now that she wasn't there, he felt like a part of him was missing. No, he had to go out and look for her!

Ke Gang just stood up, but suddenly felt a sharp pain in his chest!

"Ugh!" He groaned, clutching his chest and sinking back down: Was the poison starting to act up again Why now of all times

He didn't know, however, that he could have a relapse of the poison at any moment if he got too excited.

"My Lord!"

Luckily, at this moment He Ming happened to return. Seeing Qian Ting Xuan like this, he knew it must be another attack of the poison, so he quickly helped him into the room.

"He... He was just saying, 'Crane Call, little song...' " But before he could finish, the agonizing pain struck again, overwhelming him. He couldn't bear it and fainted right there.

"What's wrong with the little junior sister" Before this person could finish speaking, he fainted. This worried He Ming greatly.

Quickly taking silver needles from the medicine box, he skillfully suppressed the poison. This method of treating the symptoms but not the root cause was indeed helpless. Those major acupoints were almost pierced into a sieve.

"You and your junior sister, both of you are a headache!" He Cried as he checked his body. He frowned secretly: these past two months, the poison attacks had been becoming more frequent. If he didn't find a cure soon, he feared his body wouldn't hold out much longer.

But the medicine's ingredients are so hard to find. Over these years, he has searched almost everywhere he could think of, but still came up empty-handed. He doesn't even know if it's possible to find them at all.

A close friend of many years, to make him watch the King's poison take hold and die before his eyes... he truly couldn't do it.

"You and your junior sister, one has affection and the other righteousness, fate is cruel." He sighed deeply. From the moment he knew his junior sister was practicing the Life-and-Death Sutra, he had guessed what she wanted to do. He couldn't imagine what would happen if something happened to his junior sister, the Prince would go crazy. But if something happened to the Prince, his junior sister would definitely be heartbroken as well.

These two clearly have feelings for each other, yet one wears their love openly and flamboyantly, while the other remains subtle and enigmatic.

It is said that Xiao Yuge and Lu Xiangwan raced against the stars, finally arriving in front of a mountain on the second afternoon.

"Sister Lu, are we already here" Looking at the mountain in front of her, Xiao Yuge was a little doubtful. They seemed to have come to the wrong place. There was no road ahead.

Lu Xiangwan pointed to the mountain and said, "Ge'er, after crossing that mountain, lies the back mountain of my Miao Ling clan. I vaguely calculated that something big has happened in the clan. We cannot enter through the front gate, lest we be discovered."

"Shall we hike over that mountain" Xiao Yuge was a little dumbfounded. That mountain was so high, it would probably take a two-legged creature a whole day and night to climb over it.

"There's a shortcut, it won't take long, about two hours at most. We should be able to reach the clan before nightfall. Follow me!" Lu Xiangwan finished speaking and strode forward.

“Alright.” Xiao Yuge resignedly followed behind her. Her body, which she had trained every day these past few months, was no longer as fragile as the pampered young lady she once was. However, after a night and half a day of riding, with almost no rest, her inner thighs were burning with pain. After crossing this mountain, she estimated that her legs would be useless.

"Gee, aren't you tired Why don't we rest here for a bit" Lu Xiangwan saw how she was walking and finally understood. Her petite frame must have been exhausted after a whole day of rushing all night.

"It's alright, let's go." Xiao Yu Ge knew she was worried about the safety of their clan and wished to fly over the mountain. Even though her leg hurt, she endured it, "Lu elder sister, why don't we use light kung fu There's no one here anyway, and we won't frighten anyone."

"Indeed, I've gone quite muddled." Lu Xiangwan immediately followed Xiao Yuge's suggestion. The two of them used light kung fu in more open areas and walked through the denser tree areas. This way, they significantly shortened their travel time.

"Ge'er, can your people keep up" Lu Xiangwan glanced back, seemingly seeing nothing moving, and couldn't help but feel a bit doubtful.

"Sister Lu, don't worry, they can keep up!" Xiao Yuge was full of confidence. Feng Yanniang was the Great Protector of the Frost and Snow Tower, her light kung fu far surpassing hers. How could she possibly fall behind

She deliberately let them fall behind a little. At least for now, the situation is unclear, and she can't put them in danger. Since she became their landlord, she has to protect them.

Lu Xiangwan's light kung fu was on par with Xiao Yuge's. The two of them dashed along the mountain path and quickly reached the summit.

However, a gust of wind blew in, and the thick smell of blood in the air made them all shiver. A sense of foreboding crept up on them!

The entire Miao Ling is located at the foot of the mountain, like an idyllic peach blossom garden. If you hadn't climbed over this mountain and caught a glimpse of the houses at its base, who would have thought that there was such a hidden paradise beyond it!

Xiao Yuge muttered, "If it weren't for Sister Lu leading the way, ordinary people would never have thought that there was such a different world behind this mountain. No wonder it's called a lawless place, I'm afraid even the government officials haven't considered it."

"Something must have happened!" Just moments ago, Lu Xiangwan had been calm and collected. Now her face was pale with alarm, she didn't hesitate for a second, leaping down the mountainside.

Xiao Yu Ge didn't dare to delay. After giving a signal to Feng Yan Niang in the shadows behind him, he also quickly followed Lu Xiang Wan.

When they rushed down the mountain, what they saw before them stunned them!

The huge village was filled with the thick smell of blood. Corpses lay everywhere, showing all kinds of horrible scenes. The unburned flames jumped, and the burnt houses crackled. Besides the charred houses, corpses, and animals, everything else was deathly silent, as if this place were a dead city, a lifeless city without any sign of living people!

Although they had made the worst preparations for his arrival, they never expected it to be as suffocatingly tragic as it was now. They thought at most that Second Young Master Nan Gongjian would seize power, with some fighting involved, but never imagined such a dreadful scene!

"Chief!" Lu Xiangwan sprinted, running towards somewhere. of the ordinary. 。The more I talk, the more I feel something is off about this place. 。"Master, what you say makes sense. Shall I go and investigate" He Hongxiu stopped her. "No need! With so many...
