296 Seeing Through But Not Exposing
Mo Beiyuan met her clear and lively eyes. He would definitely be worried if he let her and Bai Wan go to such a dangerous place.
“When do you plan to leave?”
“I’ll be leaving soon.”
Although Yun Ran was not in a hurry, Bai Wan was really anxious to leave.
“Alright, I’ll go with you after I’m done with some matters.”
“Huh? Are you coming with us?”
Mo Beiyuan cleared his throat and said seriously, “That’s the Imperial Mausoleum. The ancestors of the East Continent’s royal family are lying inside. I plan to visit them.”
Yun Ran felt that there was indeed nothing wrong with his explanation, so she nodded. However, she then thought of another problem. “There’s no problem with Bun staying in the prince’s mansion. He can play with his own poison and pills. But it might not be easy for the others to take care of Little Sweetcake.”
Bun was more independent. Perhaps it was because he was an elder brother, but he had never been very clingy to her and Mo Beiyuan.
However, unless someone between her and Mo Beiyuan stayed behind to bring her along, Sweetcake would feel extremely insecure. When she made a fuss, she would cry. Once she cried, no one could coax her.
“Then take her with us.”
Mo Beiyuan did not want to leave Little Sweetcake in the residence.
However, when Xuanyuan Yu heard that they were bringing the little packrat to the Imperial Mausoleum, he snatched the little packrat back.
“No, what is that place? Bring her over!”
“That’s the Imperial Mausoleum. Why?” Yun Ran was puzzled.
Xuanyuan Yu said, “Don’t you know that the Yin aura in the Imperial Mausoleum is very heavy? Especially when she’s such a big baby. She’ll fall sick if she goes in.”
Although this sounded strange, Yun Ran did not dare to take this risk with her little packrat.
“Then…”
Yun Ran meant that Mo Beiyuan should stay and not follow her.
At this moment, Xuanyuan Yu continued in a serious tone, “The only solution is for me to follow along and suppress the Yin Qi with my powerful Dragon Qi and righteousness.”
Yun Ran was speechless.
She was extremely suspicious that this person actually wanted to go with them. Bai Wan might have ignored him, so he found this reason.
However, could the Imperial Qi on his body suppress the ghosts of the ancestors of the royal family of another country?
Yun Ran saw through it and didn’t expose it. “In that case, let’s go together.”
The Imperial Mausoleum of the East Continent was a forbidden area of the East Continent. Normally, one could only enter with the permission of the Emperor.
Xuanyuan Yu was the Emperor of Wu’an. Although the relationship between the East Continent and Wu’an wasn’t too bad and they maintained a superficial harmony, it didn’t make sense for Xuanyuan Yu, the Emperor of Wu’an, to enter the Imperial Mausoleum of the East Continent directly.
Moreover, Bai Wan’s identity could not be exposed for the time being.
Therefore, they had to keep a low profile. It was best to hide their whereabouts.
Riding on a flying demonic beast, the group did not enter through the main entrance of the Imperial Mausoleum. Instead, they spent some effort to make their way to the back mountain of the Imperial Mausoleum.
From midair, the entire mountain had collapsed into a huge pit.
Cracks of varying degrees appeared on the ground and mountains around the huge pit.
The huge pit was so dark that it was impossible to see anything from afar.
Bai Wan rode the flying demonic beast and landed. Xuanyuan Yu followed closely behind.
The little girl in Yun Ran’s arms stuck her head out of her cloak, her big black eyes filled with curiosity. “Mother, where is this? Sweet Cake has never been here.”
Yun Ran did not mind. “This is the tomb of the Mo family’s ancestors.”
