"Miss, who are you looking for …"
"You are..."
Mu Fu Rong was startled, and then said: "She has to come back, right?
"Of course …"
"Then I'll go in and wait for her to come back!" Mu Fu Rong said as he reached for the door handle, about to force his way in.
Just at this time, a horse galloped over. The gatekeeper, whose arm was stretched out to stop the horse, immediately shouted: "Hey! "Old master!"
Mu Fu Rong turned her head when she heard the voice, and the doorman quickly said: "It's our old master who has returned!"
Mu Fu Rong did not rush in again, but stood at the door and watched as the horse approached. Following after, a middle-aged man jumped down:
"What's wrong? The person at the door is... "
"Master, this is Miss Mu Fu Rong from the Danzong. She has come to find our young miss, but the young miss and her are both gone to the Herb Mountain and not in the manor. Miss Mu said that she wants to go in and wait for our young miss."
He had been a gatekeeper for many years and had seen all sorts of people, but this was the first time he saw a girl like Mu Fu Rong, who was completely rude and disrespectful as she barged in.
"Danzong, Mu, oh, are you medicinal valley elder's granddaughter?"
Although Bai Chang Wu was not clear about the matters of the Danzong, as someone who grew medicinal herbs, he still knew about the famous medicinal valley elder and how he had a very talented granddaughter.
"Yes, I am."
"Then Miss Mu, why are you looking for Ru Yue …"
"A private matter." Mu Fu Rong still had an unhappy face, but more or less, she was not as aggressive as before.
The little miss had already said that it was a private matter, so it wasn't good for a man like Bai Chang Wu to ask. Seeing that the other party was already standing at the entrance, he could only laugh and say:
"Sure! I'll go to her room and wait. " Mu Fu Rong's blunt answer stunned Bai Chang Wu for a moment, and he could only reply to the gatekeeper: "You lead Miss Mu to go first …. "In Ruyue's courtyard!"
It wasn't appropriate to leave a little girl in the living room. She had already told him about Ruyue's courtyard, so he just let her be.
Thus, Mu Fu Rong unceremoniously entered the Bai Mansion and went straight to Bai Ru Yue's courtyard to wait. She planned to ask and settle the score when Bai Ru Yue returned.
Bai Chang Wu did not even enter the manor. He only handed the package that he extended his hand for the servants and then rode his horse straight towards the Herb Mountain.
… ….
Lu Yuan laid in the cave dug out from the depths of Bai Family Herb Mountain, still trembling.
In the nick of time, he activated his backup plan. Not only did he protect his own life, he also successfully exchanged the Gu carving for it.
At this moment, he did not know if the Demon Suppressing King had been poisoned by the Gu eagles, but he knew that during the insurance period, he had to leave this place immediately!
However, even though this body had been exchanged for his, the formidable Ice Power was still able to freeze his entire body, making it hard for him to move.
His arms were covered in ice, and no matter how many times he smashed and fell, there was no crack at all.
"This won't do. I don't have much time, I'll have to give up this physical body first!"
Lu Yuan muttered these words, and his eyes once again shone with a strange red light. The red light grew brighter and brighter, and then, a green figure sprayed out from Lu Yuan's mouth …
"Pah!" Lu Yuan fell to the ground, his eyes opened wide, and the black figure that spat out quickly rushed out of the cave.
… ….
The Lord Commander gave up on riding his horse and used his battle spirit to condense his wings to ride on the horse.
When he stepped into the Bai Family Herb Mountain, it was hard for him to find his way through the layers of medicinal fields. However, because Bai Ru Yue said the word 'hinterland', he headed towards the depths of the Herb Mountain.
After searching for a while, he saw a cave. He quickly ran inside and spread out his Dou Qi so that he wouldn't be ambushed.
However, when they arrived at the cave that was not considered deep, they saw Lu Yuan's body lying on the ground.
He knitted his brows and looked around with his nose. As expected, the stench of a demonic beast was still lingering in the air.
Moreover, there was still some lingering spiritual energy in the cave – it was obvious that the existence of the Gu was real!
It looks like the shift technique had sucked Bai Ru Yue away, and the moment the Saint Child of the Goblin Tribe was exchanged, he ran away with the Gu eagle!
At this moment, Lord Commander still had a drop of cold sweat on the back of his neck.
"Luckily..." He muttered these two words softly, and felt a trace of gratitude towards Bai Ru Yue from the bottom of her heart. It was only a trace, because in reality, he had already stopped his attack, otherwise, Bai Ru Yue would already be a dead man!
Furthermore, taking a step back, at this moment in time, he still could not 100% believe in Bai Ru Yue. He had not found out whether or not there was any collusion between the Bai Family and the demon race.
"Pah!" From the cave entrance, the sound of tree branches breaking could be heard. overseer immediately turned around and with a quick movement, he rushed out of the cave like a ghost.
When a frost blade was placed on the neck of the figure that was trying to escape, overseer realized that it was a woman, and that he had seen this woman before.
"Madame Bai?" overseer raised his eyebrows. "Why are you here?"
"Don't, don't kill me! I, I, I, I didn't see anything! " Bai Yan Shi revealed his innocence with an anxious voice that was completely filled with fear.
overseer's eyes flashed: "I didn't see anything, I just saw it. Speak! What exactly did you see? "
Bai Yan Shi wanted to cry, but no tears came out. I really didn't see anything. Just as I walked to the entrance of the cave, I saw you standing in front of the corpse. I … I would never tell anyone that you killed someone! "
"Don't kill me! I really didn't see anything! Help! There's no one here! "
"Shut up!" The overseer shouted an order, and Bai Yan Shi was immediately thrown into the cave. Beside Lu Yuan's body, Bai Yan Shi was already extremely frightened, but suddenly, she realised that it was actually Lu Yuan.
overseer observed the changes in Bai Yan Shi's expression for a few breaths of time, and then asked: "What's going on with this cave, and, what's inside?"
Bai Yan Shi's body trembled several times before she finally gritted her teeth and said, "Master, I will tell you everything I know! But, I have a request! "
overseer stared at Bai Yan Shi for two breaths of time before saying: "Speak!"
Please promise me that you will treat my daughter well and love her for the rest of your life.
overseer was surprised, his eyelids lifted up higher, to be good to Bai Ru Yue? What does that mean?
He was puzzled in his heart, but still nodded and said, "Alright! "I promise you!"
