What Mu Wan Yun wanted to do now was to wait! Wait for the other side to show up first!
When Dusk came back into the room, he found that the thing she had left on the dresser was gone.
When Mu Yunyun heard the news, she secretly said ”Okay!”.
”What's in the bottle?” Seeing Mu Wan's crafty smile, Jin Yu Lie knew that she definitely didn't have any good intentions.
Actually, there was nothing else in it. It was indeed a good item for smearing one's face, but she had purposely added some special powder.
She didn't need to use it. As long as someone opened the bottle, the powder inside would emit a unique fragrance, and in her hands, there was a type of bee that was especially sensitive to this smell.
When she let out the bees, a buzzing sound rang out and immediately surrounded the room, stopping at the window for a moment before flying out.
In order to avoid alerting the enemy, the only ones accompanying him were Mu Yunji and Jin Yu Lie, as well as Elder Maha.
As the three of them hurried on their way, they discovered that this was the place where Situ had left his imprint.
Before, they didn't have the slightest bit of information, but now, it was different.
Last time when they were travelling across the Northern Countries, she had already noticed that the Fire Elder, Lei Huo, was a little different from Mu Yanran. If one were to say that someone was able to save someone from the raging flames unscathed, only the Lightning Flame would be able to do so.
If it was really him, then he would definitely care about anything related to Mu Yanran.
After she thought this through, she paid attention to her surroundings. She didn't miss a single clue. It was because of her strong observation skills that she felt that there were sometimes slight differences in the air.
A trace of anger revealed the thunderfire in their surroundings.
In order to draw out the thunder and fire, Mu Wan Yun had asked the Dark Frost to act out a play.
Indeed, he had been tricked!
Jin Yu Lie released all of his powerful cultivation base, as he probed the surroundings for any signs of activity. After a moment, his gaze locked onto a certain location in the northwest direction.
”Where?” Mu Wan Yun asked.
Jin Yu Lie shook his head, and said: ”Three people. It's just that I can't feel Situ's aura. ”
Maha said, ”How about I go take a look first?”
Maha walked with extraordinary caution, and as he did, he headed in the direction that Jin Yu Lie had indicated. The terrain along the road was rugged and difficult to walk on. The fog was especially thick under the sunlight. After walking for a short distance, Maha's figure couldn't be seen.
Mu Wan Yun was still a bit worried. She had a faint feeling that Jin Yu Lie was deliberately avoiding Maha. So she said nothing when she left Maha.
”What's over there?”
The corner of Jin Yu Lie's mouth slightly lifted, as he turned the horse in the opposite direction, carrying Mu Wan with him. He knew that Situ Nan wasn't there, and he had also intentionally lured Maha over to force Mu Yanran and Lei Huo to come over. He knew that even if Maha couldn't defeat the two of them, he had at least given them enough time. Moreover, he also expected that with Maha's status as an Imperial Elder, escaping in a critical moment wasn't a problem at all.
At the foot of a cliff, Mu Yun raised his head to look at the lush greenery above. On top of the cliff, there seemed to be a cave.
”Go!” ”Up!” Jin Yu spoke in a harsh tone as he threw away his horse, raised his hand to take Mu Wei's waist, and flew towards the cave.
The reason why Jin Yu Lie was so confident, he must have been prepared beforehand.
After passing through the heavy branches, they arrived at the peak of the mountain. As expected, they saw a black hole there.
When they saw the cave entrance, they heard a rustling sound at the same time.
Mu Wanyun glanced at Jin Yu Lie, and their eyes met, as they instantly understood each other's intentions. Jin Yu Lie nodded his head slightly, Mu Yun shouted towards the inside.
Situ was tied up, and was sharpening his limbs on the ground. Suddenly, he heard a sound coming from outside, and was startled for a moment before shouting, ”Don't come over here! Don't come near me! ”
His voice was tinged with fear and panic.
Mu Wanyun was already at the cave entrance when she suddenly heard Situ Qing's voice. Her footsteps suddenly halted as Jin Yu Lie's thick and powerful hands suddenly arrived and pulled her back.
Only now did Mu Wan see that there seemed to be something at the hole.
Jin Yu Lie took out a fire piston. Under the illumination of the flames, one could see densely packed silk-like threads twining around the entrance of the cave, sealing it in two directions.
Fortunately, Jin Yu Lie's reaction was fast, otherwise, he wouldn't know what the consequences would be for these threads.
Mu Ye's eyes narrowed. She had been too careless! She should know that with Mu Yanran's character, she would definitely cause a sinister underhanded ruckus.
She casually took out her treasure sword and used it to pluck at the threads. Even though there wasn't a single thread cut off, the blade of her treasure sword still had a few marks on it. It was unknown where these threads came from, but they were actually so sharp.
If Mu Yun had entered directly just now, he would have definitely been injured or even lost his life.
The rope at Situ's feet was broken, he did not care about what was in his hand, and immediately ran out, slicing through layers of fine lines. He said to Mu Wan who was standing outside: ”Elder Sister Mu, don't come in! Be careful of these threads! ”
Seeing Situ, Mu Wanyun felt as if he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
”Mu Yanran did this on purpose. Her goal is to target you! ” As Situ spoke, he suddenly thought of something and anxiously asked, ”Not good!” ”Did Ammu come with you guys?”
”Yes, he's in town.”
