Xiao Hong was immediately confused by the two of us, so she only paid attention to the imprint on her back.

”You guys don't need to talk about anything else for now. I just want to know whether this imprint will harm you guys by leaving it on me or not.”

Xu Zizai and I wanted to give a negative answer, but the moment we stopped, Xiao Hong's heart would already have an answer.

”It's fine. Tonight, we will capture her and solve the riddle. Even if we are the first one to win, it seems like there will be another reward. What do you think it will be?”

Although I knew that Xu Zizai was just trying to ease the atmosphere, I couldn't answer him. After all, I didn't even know what these treasures were.

However, Xiao Hong continued to lecture quite a few times and even laughed at herself in the end.

The atmosphere immediately became much more relaxed.

The egret only woke up in the evening. When it opened its eyes, the blue light had not faded completely. It was only after adjusting itself for a long time that it slowly disappeared.

”They're not being helped!”

That was the first thing the egret said when it woke up. He closed his eyes and said, ”If it was only that woman, she wouldn't have been able to force me to do that. Someone must be helping them from behind!”

The words of the egret were like a pebble dropped into the water, instantly disrupting our previous plan.

Xu Zizai scratched his bald head with a headache and said impatiently, ”This is the first time I feel that the Mu Rong family is very annoying. If I knew this earlier, I wouldn't have supported this young master. He was much more useless than before!”

I secretly listened while also comprehending a principle. So every test represents the power of the Patriarch. It seems that the Patriarch is a ruthless character this time!

The egret stared at its palm in silence, as if it was trying to remember something.

Looking at his appearance, I felt a bit of heartache. He clearly looked like a child, but he actually had such a deep heart.

To a youth, having too deep of a mind was not a good thing.

Even if they had help, there are only three outcomes. One is a member of the Mu Rong family, the other is an enemy of the Mu Rong family, and finally, we are going to be friends with them. If they are with us, then it means that they don't know the answer to the mystery.

I simply stated all of the choices I had made. Of course, my heart was leaning towards the third option, which was the most likely one.

Xu Zizai nodded, satisfied with what I had said.

”I think what the white letter says is right. Tonight is the battle to the death. You must focus on your own safety and not harm yourselves for a few reasons, especially the egrets, the white letter, and the members of the Bai Family.”

When I heard that, I immediately rolled my eyes. It was obvious that this was against the Bai Clan.

Night gradually descended. As the only spell paper was placed on the egret's body, I used a blank talisman paper to start drawing with a brush.

The cinnabar was also brought over by Xu Zizai. Although they all look the same color, I could clearly feel that this cinnabar was completely different from the one in the small building.
