Greedy Baby and Scheming Mother - C440
Chapter 440 – Fire in Town (1)
What Mu Wanjun needed to do now was to wait! Wait for the other side to show up first!
When An Shuang returned to her room, she found that the things on the dressing table had disappeared.
When Mu Wanjun received the news, she immediately agreed to it!
“What’s in the bottle?” Seeing Mu Wanjun’s crafty smile, Jin Yulie knew that she 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.
To avoid alerting the enemy, the only people accompanying them were Mu Wanjun, Jin Yulie and Elder Mo He.
The three of them moved quickly, but to their surprise, they discovered that this was the place where Si Tu had left his mark.
Before, they didn’t have the slightest bit of information, but now, it was different.
When Mu Wanjun felt that this matter was strange, and thought about the Mu Yanran who was still alive, and how she had traveled with the Northern Faction last time, she could tell that Elder Fire Lei Huo was somewhat different from Mu Yanran. If one were to say that there was anyone who could save a person without being harmed in this blazing fire, then it could only be done by Lei Huo.
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 that Lei Huo was right around them.
In order to lure Lei Huo out, Mu Wanjun went to the An Shuang and acted out.
Sure enough, Lei Huo fell for it!
Jin Yulie released all of his powerful cultivation, as he searched for any signs of activity in the area. After a moment, his gaze locked onto a certain location in the northwest direction.
“Where?” Mu Wanjun asked.
Jin Yulie shook his head, but said: “Three people. Only, I can’t sense Si Tu’s aura. ”
Mo He said: “How about, I’ll go take a look first.”
Mo He took a breath and moved forward. He was especially cautious along the way, as he headed in the direction that Jin Yulie had pointed. The terrain along the road was rugged and difficult to traverse, but the dense fog was especially dense under the sunlight. After walking not too far, Mo He’s figure could not be seen.
Mu Wanjun was still a little worried. Faintly, she sensed that Jin Yulie seemed to be deliberately giving way to Mo He. So when Mo He left, she didn’t say anything.
“What’s over there?”
The corner of Jin Yulie’s mouth raised slightly, he turned his horse around and led Mu Wanjun in the opposite direction. He knew that Si Tu wasn’t there, and he had intentionally lured him there to force him and Mu Yanran. He knew that even if Mo He was unable to defeat the two of them, he had at least given them sufficient time. Furthermore, he had also expected that with Mo He’s identity as a teacher and elder, escaping in the nick of time would not be a problem.
Beneath a cliff, Mu Wanjun raised his head and saw that it was lush and verdant, with a cave faintly visible at the top of the cliff.
“Go!” “Up!” Jin Yulie immediately threw away his horse, grabbed Mu Wanjun’s waist, and flew towards the cave.
The reason why Jin Yulie was so confident about doing this, was most likely because he had made preparations 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 Wanjun looked at Jin Yulie, and their eyes met, as they instantly understood each other’s intentions. Jin Yulie nodded his head slightly, and then shouted towards the inside.
Si Tu’s hands and feet were tied up, and he was sharpening them at a sharp point on the ground. Suddenly, he heard the sound coming from outside. “Don’t come near me!”
His voice was tinged with fear and panic.
Mu Wanjun was already at the cave entrance, and when she suddenly heard Si Tu’s voice, she suddenly stopped in her tracks. Jin Yulie’s broad and powerful hand suddenly arrived and pulled her back.
Only now did Mu Wanjun notice that there seemed to be something at the entrance of the cave.
Jin Yulie took out a fire piston, and under the illumination of the flames, he saw that the entire cave entrance was covered densely in silk-like threads that weaved through and around the entire cave entrance, sealing the cave entrance.
Luckily, Jin Yulie’s reaction was fast, otherwise, he didn’t know what kind of consequences these threads would have.
