Chapter 232: Exit Location

He turned to look at Rong Yan. “I want one of your hands, Master.” With that, he kicked a sword on the ground to Rong Yan’s feet.

Rong Yan’s expression was unreadable. He really bent down to pick up the sword. Xiaoxiao hurriedly said, “Wait!”

Rong Yan suddenly looked at her and was about to injure himself the next moment when Xiaoxiao shouted quickly, “The account book is with me.”

It was unknown who blocked Rong Yan’s sword, but the clanging sound did not stop for a long time. It could be seen how much strength he used and how determined he was when he swung just now.

Xiaoxiao felt that from this moment on, this man, who was willing to give up everything for her and hurt his body without hesitation, would never be erased from her heart.

He had done so much for her. How could Xiaoxiao bear to make things difficult

for him and hurt him?

She smiled and said clearly, “What you’re looking for is a very, very small bamboo tube that was pressed under Young Master Han’s tongue, right? That thing is with me.”

“Brother Yun Yi, since you know that I was the first to find him, you should naturally understand that what I said is true, so there’s no need for you to make Little Big Brother Ah Yan choose.”

Rong Yan, who had reacted calmly just now, could not stay calm at all. “Let her go and I’ll let you live. Otherwise, I’ll make sure you die horribly no matter where you go!”

Yun Yi smiled. “Master, you’re joking. Since I’ve already obtained what I want, how can I—” Return it to you?

Before he could finish speaking, he suddenly threw something on the ground. The moment this thing hit the ground, black smoke suddenly filled the air. Xiaoxiao seized the last opportunity to shout, “Little Big Brother, don’t be anxious. I’ll be fine!” Then, someone covered her mouth and brought her out of the Shen Residence.

Because of Xiaoxiao, County Magistrate Shen’s men held back. When the smoke dissipated, Xiaoxiao and Yun Yi were nowhere to be seen.

Rong Yan did not say anything else. He looked up, found a direction, and chased after her.

Yun Er followed without another word. “Master, have you found traces of them?”

Rong Yan shook his head with an ugly expression. Yun Er had no choice but to ask, “Then why are you running here?”

Because the guards here were the most relaxed, and because Dayan Mountain was the closest to here, it would be even harder for them to find Yun Yi after entering the mountain. Because… his intuition…

He didn’t waste any energy to explain, and Yun Er followed him quietly. County Magistrate Shen, who was one step slower, left half of his men to interrogate the men in black who were captured alive, and the other half followed him very quickly.

In front of them, Yun Yi was indeed walking in this direction. However, he knew the principle of hiding in the busy county. Not only was he not in a hurry to escape, but he also disguised himself. He placed the dagger behind Xiaoxiao and pretended to be her grandfather and granddaughter as he slowly walked towards the city gate.

Xiaoxiao slowed down. “I have a question.”

Yun Yi moved the dagger. “I admire Miss Ning’s inner strength.” Did she have any self-awareness that she was being held hostage?

However, if he did not answer, Xiaoxiao would not cooperate and move forward. Helpless, Yun Yi could only give in. “Miss, please speak.”

Xiaoxiao asked, “Were you the one who lured the wild boar to where I was in the forest that day?”

Yun Yi nodded and admitted it. Xiaoxiao asked again, “Were you the one who brought Little Big Brother Ah Yan to look for me later?”

She did not understand the meaning of Yun Yi’s contradictory actions. Why did he let her confront Lei Shaoming and ask Little Big Brother to save her?

Yun Yi did not intend to answer anymore. “These are two questions. Alright, Miss Ning, I advise you not to waste time. Don’t force me to knock you out and carry you away.”

Xiaoxiao muttered, “Men and women shouldn’t touch each other.” She really followed obediently.

A good girl should not lose out. Moreover, the more remote she went, the more convenient it was for her to escape.

Compared to disappearing in the bustling city, she was more inclined to wait for an opportunity to disappear in an uninhabited place. Yun Yi had to rest and let go of her hand. When the time came, she would either ask to pee, jump into a valley or river. There would always be a way to avoid his gaze for a moment.

If she really encountered a situation where he would not rest until she died, she still had the ingredient slaughter function. Before that, she wanted to see if she could get any useful information.

According to the routine, she was a dead person in Yun Yi’s eyes. Typically, bad people could not help but tell secrets to such people. She could not be caught for nothing, right?

County Magistrate Shen sent people to chase after Rong Yan in a hurry. Moreover, he subconsciously thought that Yun Yi had gone far away, so the city gate was slightly relaxed. Before the strict order was given, Yun Yi had successfully taken Xiaoxiao out of the city and went to Dayan Mountain according to Rong Yan’s prediction.

Xiaoxiao was even happier when she saw this. There were many trees and grass in the mountains. She would find an opportunity to fall and roll around later to “disappear”. She was so looking forward to it!

Yun Yi felt that Xiaoxiao was too cooperative. She did not cry, make a fuss, or cause trouble. She even walked very quickly. Sometimes, she would even walk in front to urge him. “Walk faster. Haven’t you eaten?”

There must be something wrong with this abnormality. He suspected that she had some scheme.

Looking at the ground that she had stomped into a mess, Yun Yi sneered. “Do you think you can get Master to notice this?”

He restored the ground to its original state as quickly as possible in front of Xiaoxiao. Xiaoxiao pursed her lips and walked in front with a snort. When she was about five meters away from the exit, she instructed in her heart: [Baby, let’s work!]

The space responded, and a trace of silver appeared on the ground that Yun Yi had just tidied up—[Successfully used the exit positioning function.] After upgrading, she could leave the space anywhere within a five-meter radius and she could also let the things in the space appear within this range. It was really useful.

Not far ahead of them, Rong Yan, who had realized that he might have guessed Yun Yi’s intentions wrongly, was returning to the mountain to check again. There were no traces of anyone walking on the ground. However, this was the strangest. He was anxious just now. Even if he used Qinggong, he would definitely leave a few footprints. How could there be nothing?

Unless… unless someone else came after them and it was that person who did something.

Leaning against the tree trunk, he closed his eyes and forced himself to think calmly.

Although Yun Yi’s Qinggong was good, he would definitely not be faster than him with Ning Xiaoxiao, who did not know martial arts. If he could think of this, so could Yun Yi. Hence, it was impossible for him to compete with them in speed.

Therefore, the first thing he had to do was definitely not to hurry, but to disguise himself!

Rong Yan, who was filled with regret, realized that he had been too concerned and was schemed against by Yun Yi, who was most familiar with him. In his anger, he punched the tree trunk. When he saw the leaves fluttering down, he suddenly saw a silver light—that was!

Her flustered heart was finally comforted. Ning Xiaoxiao was so smart. Even if she really had the account book, she would not hand it to Yun Yi directly. As long as Yun Yi did not get the account book, her life would not be in danger. At the thought of this, Rong Yan felt frustrated again. So what if her life was not in danger? The Yun Guards were all good at interrogating. In order to make her answer, Yun Yi might torture her in all ways.. How could a young lady like her bear that pain…
