Chapter 719: Chapter 719: Dowry
At the scene, not only were the three corpses still twitching, there wasn’t a single ghostly figure to be seen.
The surrounding mountain winds were bleak, the shadows of the trees swayed, and there was no sign of anyone.
“As expected of the Night Owl! His ability to appear and disappear is getting stronger and stronger! Everyone, be cautious and don’t give him the opportunity to break through one by one.”
The leader said, while being even more vigilant.
But no matter how vigilant he was, every time a muffled moan came from behind him, a follower would die on the spot, making his eyes bloodshot.
“Old man, I’m going to fight you to the death!”
His eyes filled with murderous rage, he charged forward, and those behind him were utterly terrified.
They were not ordinary people, but they had been defeated without even seeing the enemy’s face. Such a suffocating death made them extremely fearful.
However, their opponent made a few false moves before slipping into the bushes.
The leader felt a sudden pain in his heart and had already begun to think about retreating.
“So the scum around the Empress are just wine-sacks and rice-bags like you? Seems like you’re not that special.”
Just as the leader was terrified, a figure flashed beside him, and Tang Ji appeared by his side.
“You…”
His eyes widened, and before he could finish speaking, fresh blood spilled from the corner of his mouth.
Soon after, his vision suddenly darkened, and he slowly fell to the ground…
Nan Tianzong hurriedly rushed down from Black Dragon Mountain, heading straight for the Di Residence.
At the Di Residence, Liu Sisi had just arrived home.
“Big Brother, are you looking for Ye Lei? He went to the barracks and hasn’t returned yet.”
Liu Sisi knew that Nan Tianzong would come, but she deliberately mentioned Di Yelei as a pretext.
“Sisi, are you okay? That old bastard Zhao Jiong didn’t hurt you, did he? When you went up Black Dragon Mountain you should have called me. If something happened to you, how could I face it…”
Nan Tianzong rambled on for quite a while before noticing the smile on Liu Sisi’s face, who hadn’t spoken for a long time.
“What’s the matter, Sisi?”
“I’m fine, I just went to ask some questions I care about, and then came back.”
“What questions?”
“Where are my mother’s remains, and am I really his daughter?” Liu Sisi’s smile had an indescribable strangeness to it.
Nan Tianzong hesitated for a moment before sighing deeply, “I just came down from Black Dragon Mountain, and I heard that you went up there. I was almost scared to death. But he said you had already come down, and I hurriedly followed.” He explained his reason for coming.
“Well, thank you, big brother. You’re the best brother Sisi could ever have! Always!” Liu Sisi gratefully expressed.
“And you’ll always be my best little sister! Forever!”
