The man called Su Yu put his weapon back in its scabbard and said indifferently, "Xiao Yao Mountain hasn't been peaceful for the past few days. Since you're using this time to go up the mountain, you must be in trouble. Be careful."

Mu Qingqiu turned her head and pulled Su Yu aside, saying softly, "We came here this time to find you. Do you know that the Dark Dragon Pavilion has sent someone to chase after a lady …?"

"Could it be her?" Su Yu turned around and looked Yan Ling up and down.

Today, Yan Ling was dressed in black, with his hair neatly combed back. His expression was calm, and his eyes were as clear as autumn water.

When they met, Su Yu's eyes lit up and she chuckled, "What a pity about that beauty."

By the side, when Liang He heard these words, he felt extremely upset. He pulled Yan Ling behind him and then said to Su Yu, "The reason we came here this time, is to seek Pavilion Master Su's help …"

At this moment, Su Yu suddenly stretched out her hand, signalling them not to talk. She raised her head and looked around. Her expression instantly became grave. "We'll talk about it when we get back."

A strong wind blew past, and the air seemed to have a different smell. Everyone understood, and followed Su Yu up the mountain.

The sky was dark and the journey had been arduous. Finally, after three hours on the moon, they arrived at the headquarters of the Yue Long Pavilion.

The headquarters of the Yue Long Pavilion was on the dark side of the mountain, a simple stone tunnel under a huge tree with three to four people surrounding it.

Under Su Yu's lead, the journey seemed to be smooth sailing.

When they entered the tunnel, the first thing they saw was a main hall. The main hall was underground all year round, and the lighting was very dim. Su Yu sat on the main seat and asked Mu Qingqiu, "Old Mu, what did you say earlier?"

Mu Qingqiu then turned around and pointed at Yan Ling, "This girl is my disciple. Now that she's being bribed to kill her, we have no choice but to find someone to protect her. I thought of you, didn't I?"

Mu Qingqiu was very old, but she still had to be respectful to Su Yu, which made her feel a little awkward.

Su Yu turned his head back to look at Yan Ling, his face showing a look of admiration, and said: "This girl is very pretty, and all the beautiful girls that protect the world are ours to do. But then again, it's not easy for me to support this family, for the sake of me knowing you, I'll give you a discount." Su Yu said while sipping his tea.

Mu Qingqiu pursed her lips and raised her eyes to look at Liang He. In terms of protecting Yan Ling, this mission was originally Liang He's responsibility. Sure enough, he said to Su Yu, "Pavilion Master Su has stated the price. As long as this one can afford it."

Su Yu's gaze drifted towards Yan Ling again. He raised his hand and made a number. Liang He didn't even blink before he said, "Sure."

"Straightforward! I like doing business with such an open-minded young master. Thirteen, come out!" Su Yu shouted to the side chamber behind her.

Following that, a little girl slowly walked out. She was wearing bright red clothes, the same material as Su Yu. The girl had a delicate and pretty face, and when she came out, she immediately knelt in front of Su Yu.

"Thirteen, follow this girl from now on. If she's in danger, inform her immediately." After Su Yu said this, she went to the nearby table with Liang He to settle the score. Thirteen stood up from the ground and walked over to Yan Ling, respectfully saying, "Miss, I am called Thirteen."

The other side had already settled the matter, so Mu Qingqiu clasped her hands again and said, "Many thanks to Pavilion Master Su."

After Su Yu sent everyone to the door, she smiled at Yan Ling. Yan Ling was baffled, but he did not express anything.

He jumped onto the horse. The group of people brought Thirteen back to Mu Qingqiu's residence.

Thirteen had spent a high price to get it back, so he naturally had to stay by Yan Ling's side.

In the infirmary, Mu Qingqiu looked at the notes that Yan Ling had made during his free time. She then took out two small jade bottles from the medicine rack and handed them to Yan Ling. "Be careful when you return. I'll give you these two medicines to protect you."

Yan Ling had been here for a long time. To be honest, she had coveted the medicine that Mu Qingqiu had passed over.

After she happily received it, she bid farewell to Liang He before bringing Thirteen back to the Yan Residence.

The next morning, when Yan Ling woke up from his bed, he saw Thirteen hurrying in with a set of clothes in his hands.

Yan Ling rubbed his eyes and looked at the item in Thirteen's hand. It was an excellent piece of clothing, but she always wore it in a simple manner. She would never take it out unless it was a crucial occasion.

She stood up and poured herself a pot of tea. After taking two sips, she turned around and asked, "What is this?"

Since Thirteen was by his side, Yan Ling had slept soundly yesterday. After waking up, his mouth was dry and his voice sounded haggard. After taking a sip of tea, he immediately felt refreshed.

On the other hand, Thirteen seemed quite happy. He came up to Yan family and said, "The eldest mistress told me to bring this over for you. She said that she wants to enter the palace today. Please dress up properly, and don't embarrass the Yan family."

Why hadn't she heard of it before she entered the palace today?

Thirteen saw Yan Ling's handsome brows furrow, so he spread out his robes and waved them in front of him. He said in a sweet voice, "I heard that the peach blossoms behind the palace have bloomed. "As the young mistress of the Yan family, you must have the qualifications to participate. Quickly, try out if this outfit suits you right or not."

Although Thirteen was a hitman, his personality was very lively.

She was only about fourteen or fifteen years old, and just in time. However, she had become a sharp dagger in Su Yu's hands. She shone with a strange light, and her personality also gave her the intelligence she possessed at that age.

Yan Ling didn't say anything else. He took the robe and examined it closely.

It was a bright red dress with a peacock embroidered on it. It was obvious that the embroidery lady's embroidery was very solid. The peacock looked very lifelike, and the entire piece of clothing also seemed exquisite and elegant.

Yan Ling's pupils constricted. The color of her clothes was too eye-catching. If she were to attend Consort De's banquet, she would inevitably become the center of attention and show off.

Would the Madam really think that Yan Ling could do something like snatching the lord's position?

The moment the clothes were opened, Thirteen exclaimed in admiration, "What beautiful clothes. Miss, if you wear this, you will definitely become the most beautiful woman. "

Yan Ling smiled bitterly, but she had never wanted to be the most beautiful person in her life.

Putting the clothes neatly on the side, she said to Thirteen, "Give this to Yan Shuang. She's my good little sister, it's only right for her to be pampered."
