Chapter 354.2: Phoenix Store (1/2)

She glanced around and saw that there were still a lot of people lined up waiting for the guards to inspect them. From the looks of it, the only reason that she had been able to get out so easily was because it didn’t occur that anyone that she would hide in the patrol group. It probably hadn’t occurred to them either that after all that effort she put into getting into the city, in the blink of an eye she’d leave the city again.

She walked to a concealed location, then took off all her armor. After making sure that no one was around, she shoved the armor into the underbrush, dusted off her hands, and started dashing towards Phoenix Store.

That message would definitely reach the higher ups really quickly. Layer by layer, the news would be passed up, so Phoenix Store would soon be guarded so tightly that not even a drop of water could get through. She had to get there as soon as possible and find Baili Yiling so that they could find another location to talk.

Phoenix Store wasn’t very far away, so when she utilized her qinggong to the fullest, it only took a few moments for her to get there.

“Yiling? Yiling! Yiling? Are you her…”

Before she even finished her question, her mouth was covered and a familiar voice appeared behind her. “Sister-in-Law, I’m not trying to be mean, but in the future, could you be a little more clean with the way you handle things? If you keep doing things like this, you’ll definitely be caught. It’s enough that you’re impersonating someone else, so at the very least, couldn’t you disguise your features?”

Tang Doudou peeled off Baili Yiling’s hand, then turned around and said quickly, “We can’t stay here. Let’s head somewhere else first, then I’ll tell you everything in detail!”

Baili Yiling had been waiting here for so long that she was starting to get hungry and her scout still hadn’t come back yet, so she had no idea what had happened and could only rely on Tang Doudou to explain.

“Heavens! Sister-in-Law, how could you give that message to someone else!?” Baili Yiling expressed that her heart was dripping blood. She had spent so much effort to deliver that message without a trace, but the receiver of that message had actually passed it to the people she had been trying to keep it from!

So then, Tang Doudou filled Baili Yiling in on everything that happened earlier.

Baili Yiling became even more speechless. “Of all the ideas out there, you insisted on choosing the stupidest one!”

Tang Doudou just smiled. She patted her stomach that was hurting slightly and said, “We’d better leave!”

After walking for a little while, they reached the old temple she had been staying at earlier. From the lack of fire, it was obvious that no one was there.

Baili Yiling still checked the surroundings after walking in. When she confirmed that there was no one around, she hastily walked up and grabbed Tang Doudou’s wrist. She observed her pulse for a while, then looked towards Tang Doudou and asked, “Sister-in-Law, did you find my brother?”

Tang Doudou was confused as to why Baili Yiling suddenly took her pulse. “What are you doing? I’m feeling fine?”

“That’s good. If you feel off anywhere, you have to tell me! If you don’t tell me, I can’t give the right prescription.”

“En, I will.”

After a moment, Tang Doudou said, “I found your brother, but he’s lost his memories.”

“Huh?” Baili Yiling cried out in surprise, “Big Brother lost his memories? Are you sure? How could he lose his memories?”
