Chapter 280: One Step Too Slow

Chapter 280

He Zhiran swept around and waved to collect all the items into his space. Then the two returned the same way and ran to the private treasury behind the imperial treasury.

That was where He Zhiran had to go because the black Southern Pearl might be there.

Using the same method, they entered the private treasury without hesitation and moved everything out empty.

Next, their goal was to continue releasing the gu worm from the space to find the gu master's whereabouts.

All the way hiding sneakily, the two followed the gu worm to the study room.

The gu worm kept hovering around the study, obviously trying to get in.

At this time, the Emperor of Southern Frontier had already returned to the bedroom to rest. There were only two guards at the door of the study room, and they looked half asleep.

Using the same method again, the two guards were dealt with. Mo Jiuye went up to open the large door of the study room.

As soon as a gap appeared in the large door, the gu worm drilled in.

Mo Jiuye and He Zhiran also quickly entered and casually closed the door.

I saw the gu worm bypass the screen and fly towards a bookshelf, wandering around again.

Mo Jiuye guessed that this should also be some kind of secret entrance.

While staring at the gu worm, he worked with He Zhiran to start looking for the switch to enter the secret room in the room.

In the secret room, Mr. Si Meng thought more and more something was wrong.

He had just discovered that it might be the traces of those drug dealers and Mo Family Six Lang, and more than one hour had passed.

If Mo Family Six Lang had died there, the gu worm looking for the mother gu should have come back long ago with the speed of finding the mother gu.

He had been waiting outside the study for a long time just now, but did not see the gu worm come back.

This made him feel more and more uneasy in his heart.

In this case, unless the gu worm died, it would not take so long to fly back here.

If this was the case, the other party must also be a master of raising gu worms, and could even relieve the puppet gu worm.

In his understanding, there was no such master in the gu breeding world. Was it because he was poorly informed?

If there really was such a person who could catch his son gu worm, it would be easy as pie to find his location with the mother gu.

His body had not recovered yet. When he encountered danger and escaped just now, he used his inner power, and his body, which had recovered seven or eight parts, returned to its original state. If he met a master of gu breeding, he might not be able to deal with it.

Just as he was thinking about countermeasures, he suddenly heard movement at the door of the secret room.

Mo Jiuye had successfully found the switch to the secret room. The bookshelf against the wall was slowly moving away.

There was no way. In the last year and a half, he felt nothing had gone well. The people who were sent to search for Mo Family Five Lang had not come back yet.

Similarly, there was no news from the people who went to investigate Mo Jiuye in the northwest.

Next July would be the deadline he swore to avenge Menger. Now there were still so many Mo family men wandering outside. Today he had lost a Mo Jinye again.

For a while, Mr. Si Meng's emotions were extremely low. At the same time, he secretly swore that he would send more people so as to achieve his goal.

He could no longer stay in Southern Frontier. Only Da Shun could allow him to be temporarily safe.

After collecting the mother gu into the porcelain bottle with a painful expression, Mr. Si Meng hurried towards Da Shun.

It had to be said that Mr. Si Meng’s decisiveness and ruthlessness temporarily preserved his life...

He Zhiran and Mo Jiuye chased the gu worm to the woods.

The gu worm, which was flying fast chasing the mother gu, suddenly stopped, then flew towards a big tree and crashed into it.

"That’s bad. The gu worm is going to commit suicide." Mo Jiuye saw the anomaly and exclaimed, then rushed over immediately.

Unfortunately, his actions were still a step slower. The slender body of the gu worm had slammed heavily into the big tree and slowly slipped to the ground.

Such a situation was not unfamiliar to both of them.

They had not read the books about gu breeding in vain.

The two could determine that the man in white they met on the official road just now was the gu breeding master.

He was worried that the gu worm would find his whereabouts, so he chose to let the mother gu manipulate the gu worm to commit suicide. This way, it would be difficult to find him again.

Mo Jiuye gritted his teeth angrily, "He's really cunning."

He Zhiran also felt very regretful. They finally got a little new clue with great difficulty, and now it was cut off. From now on, finding the person holding the mother gu would be like looking for a needle in the sea.

Since it had already happened, she and Mo Jiuye did not consider it carefully enough, which led to this.

"Since this clue is broken, I believe he can be in the secret room of the study room of the Emperor of Southern Frontier. He must know his identity. Let's go back through the secret passage before dawn and interrogate the Emperor of Southern Frontier. At least it counts as some gain."

Mo Jiuye nodded, "That's all we can do now."

Although the gu worm had committed suicide by hitting the tree, He Zhiran did not intend to let go of its corpse either.

It might come in handy later when making antidotes for those drug dealers in the space.

So she took the bottle from Mo Jiuye's hand and put the gu worm back in.

The two returned to the Southern Frontier Imperial Palace by the original road.

Mo Jiuye took her straight to the bedroom of the Emperor of Southern Frontier.
