Chapter 748 - Leave After Succeeding in Playing the Trick (1/2)
After watching them leave, Hou Yuetian returned to the manor.
At this moment, Lin Mengya, who was supposed to be sleeping soundly, had changed into clean and neat light purple men’s clothing and was spirited with nimble arms and legs.
If it were not for her haggard face, no one would have been able to tell that she could not walk without help.
“Thank you,” Lin Mengya said and saluted with hands folded and raised in front of her face.
Qian Hua, who was supposed to be hiding in the dark, lowered his head and stood behind her respectfully.
“Alas, I’ll have to trouble you with this,” Hou Yuetian said with a helpless and bitter smile.
In fact, all they had done since the night Lin Mengya helped the daughter-in-law of the Tian Family deliver babies, including the secret conversation between Qian Hua and Long Tianyu and gathering many masters in martial arts and sending them to assist Long Tianyu and Qinghu to get rid of the lackeys of the Candle Dragon Cult, was part of Lin Mengya’s plan.
All of this was part of Lin Mengya’s plan.
“Mr. Qian, please give that medicinal material to Mr. Hou. After that, let’s part ways here. Mr. Hou, thank you for helping me time and again,” Lin Mengya said with a smile.
Despite her slightly pale face, she looked much better than before.
However, she was well aware that she was just using a method to overdraw on her vitality left at present, as she had something more important to do.
“Okay,” Qian Hua said.
He, who seemed to be particularly respectful to Lin Mengya, did not dare to neglect her request and immediately handed the medicine box in his arms to Hou Yuetian.
However, looking at the medicine box in his hand, Hou Yuetian seemed to have made a big decision.
After summoning his subordinate and giving instructions in a low voice, he asked his subordinate to leave with the medicine.
Lin Mengya glanced at him with a doubtful look in her eyes.
Hou Yuetian had helped her a lot. However, even she was not completely sure of what would happen next.
Apart from the necessary company, she did not want to get others involved in this matter that could be her doom.
“Mr. Hou, what do you mean…” She asked.
Hou Yuetian, however, suddenly spoke with a serious look, “Do you think I’m a coward, Miss Qingge? I’ll never forget you saved my life in the Jin State. Since I’ve gotten the medicinal material, I don’t have to worry about my mother’s condition. Please let me follow you and repay your kindness.”
Lin Mengya was taken aback. She did not expect Hou Yuetian to be so stubborn.
However, she obviously should not waste time now.
Once Long Tianyu and Qinghu began to fight with those people, they would see through her trick sooner or later.
After thinking for a while, she nodded slightly.
It was not difficult to persuade Hou Yuetian to stay, but the priority was to get to the Qijue Peak as soon as possible.
Lin Mengya felt a sharp pain in her arms and legs, as the horse she was riding was running at a high speed.
But she still tried hard to continue on her way. Long Tianyu and Qinghu would be delayed by other businesses.
She just needed to get the Seven Poisons Sacred Grass before they caught up with her.
She had to take risks personally this time.
“Young master, are you okay?” Qian Hua asked.
He, who had followed Lin Mengya all the way, showed a concerned look in his eyes every time he looked at her.
Swallowing the blood in her mouth, Lin Mengya nodded. Even she did not expect that the token her teacher gave her was a symbol of the head of the Poison Sect.
Besides, she learned another thing from Qian Hua.
It was about the real function of the music score for the green stringed instrument.
As she expected, it was more than a medical book.
Although the information she learned from Qian Hua was shocking, it was extremely limited.
Until now, she only knew that the music score for green stringed instrument was not only a medical book but also a map.
However, the music score for the green stringed instrument somehow had been destroyed.
Therefore, the only map of the relics of the Guwei State was in her mind.
According to legend, the Guwei State had been extremely prosperous and almost brought the whole world under its domination.
However, the main city somehow disappeared overnight. Later on, the other areas gradually fell apart and ultimately split into various countries.
Although the Guwei State had disappeared in history, it, which had solid national strength, had left plenty of relics.
The person who obtained the treasure left by the Guwei State would be able to rule all the land.
As a result, there were people after the relics of the Guwei State all the time.
Nevertheless, there were just a few people who could remember the relics of the Guwei State, the legend passed down to this day.
Qian Hua had explicitly warned Lin Mengya that the relics of the Guwei State were of great importance, but she had the only map.
Once people with evil intentions found out about this, she would be a target for all and could not imagine what terrible situation she would fall into.
However, Qian Hua should be an exception.
As he said, he should be from a family in charge of guarding the map for generations.
