The night was dark, and the sky was dark without any light.

Mo Weinong was not affected in the slightest as she rushed forward, her skills becoming even better. The old tutor's inner force was like an unending stream of energy. As long as she used it flexibly, he would be able to sense it clearly.

Mo Weinong no longer held any resentment towards the old man. Although she had to consume some unknown medicine to the point that she couldn't remember the day when her soul left her body in the middle of the night, the benefits outweighed the drawbacks.

Otherwise, she would not have known the Prince Yan, nor would she have had such a strong backer like the Emperor, nor would she have had such a strong inner force.

Mo Weinong thought as she sped up.

However, just as he was about to reach his destination, a figure suddenly appeared in front of him and blocked his path.

Mo Weinong's face changed, she suddenly raised her hand and slapped towards the man.

"It's me." The person suddenly reached out and grabbed her wrist, pulling her into his embrace.

The corner of Mo Weinong's mouth twitched. If she did not already know who he was and just based on her shameless hug, she would definitely beat him to the point where she could not take care of herself.

After struggling in his embrace, she realized that she was unable to break free, so Mo Weinong could only give up and helplessly asked: "Prince Yan, you haven't slept at all in the middle of the night, what are you doing here?"

"Naturally, I'm waiting for you." Prince Yan hugged her waist, and with a turn of his body, the two of them entered an alley to the side.

"…" Prince Yan, you're amazing, you actually guessed so accurately that she would appear here.

Yuan Jin embraced her soft waist and said smilingly, "I knew you would come to find Yu Shuixian, what are you planning to do?"

"Cut her eight times, ten times, until she can't get up tomorrow."

Yuan Jin pinched her face, "If you do it so obviously, it makes people think of you."

It was simple and crude.

"From what you're saying, it seems like you have another way to prevent others from suspecting me?" Mo Weinong felt that as long as Yu Shuixian did not participate, some people would be the first to suspect her.

It wasn't that Mo Weinong was afraid that she would drag him down along the way, since her fighting strength was too low. Qin Niangzi could knock her down, and make her listen to him obediently.

However, Mo Weinong had a fatal weakness — her soul leaving her body.

In these three days on the mountain, it was impossible for her to not sleep at night. Otherwise, she would not be able to handle sudden situations by day. But the moment she fell asleep, she would not be able to take care of her own body. Amongst the few of them, only Yu Shuixian was the only one who was hostile towards her. Just in case, it was better to not let her follow.

Yuan Jin had thought the same as her, so he could more or less guess what she would do at night. That was why he was waiting for him on the road to the Yu Residence.

Hearing her words, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. He took out a bottle from his sleeve and handed it over to her. "Use this."

"…" Mo Weinong carefully studied it, she did not know what was inside, but the things that the Prince Yan gave him, was definitely not ordinary.

She didn't ask any more questions, but nodded and put it away before asking, "Are you coming with me?"

"Naturally."

"Then let's go."

"Alright."

"It's getting late, we have to hurry."

"Yes."

"Finish it early and come back early to sleep. I don't want to lose my spirit tomorrow."

"Right."

"…" Mo Weinong began to gnash her teeth, "Then why haven't you taken away the pig's hand that you placed on my waist? How are you going to get there with me in your arms? "

Yuan Jin coughed lightly and retracted his hand.

Mo Weinong fiercely glared at him, then turned and left.

Yuan Jin followed behind and very quickly caught up to her footsteps.

The two of them landed on the wall of the Yu Residence at almost the same time, and not long after, they found Yu Shuixian's courtyard.

The security of the Yu Residence was quite tight. At the very least, it was much better than the loose guards of the Wanning Marquis Mansion.

However, there was no one in the courtyard that Yu Shuixian was living in, which made the two of them feel that it was strange, they looked at each other, and then landed at the window at the back of the courtyard.

The two of them looked inside and saw that there was a servant girl sleeping on her feet with her eyes closed. Yu Shuixian, who should be sleeping on the bed, was nowhere to be seen.

"It's so late. Where did she go?"

"Split up and look around."

Mo Weinong nodded, then the two avoided the Yu Residence's guards and started searching in both directions.

A quarter of an hour later, Mo Weinong squinted her eyes at the silhouette of a person standing in a desolate courtyard, and sneered.

She agilely leapt onto the rooftop and looked towards Yu Shuixian, as well as... The woman opposite her.

The woman looked somewhat unfamiliar. She did not recognize him, but judging from her expression and her vigilance, she should be quite skilled.

Mo Weinong did not dare to approach her because she was afraid that the woman would discover her presence.

As a result, she also did not hear the conversation between the woman and Yu Shuixian clearly.

However, this did not stop her from speculating that it would not be a good thing to not sleep in the middle of the night and run to such a remote place, not to mention that it was the day before the competition.

Yu Shuixian most likely wanted to do something tomorrow, but... She wouldn't give her the chance.

Mo Weinong quietly hid herself and quickly left the courtyard, returning to the entrance of Yu Shuixian's room.

Yuan Jin had already returned and asked her, "Have you found the person?"

"Yes, I don't know who he was talking to, but his martial arts don't seem weak. If I get too close to him, I'm afraid of being discovered." Actually, with her current strength, she might not even be discovered.

It was at this critical juncture that she did not want to get too close.

Just as the two were chatting, Yu Shuixian carefully walked over with her skirt raised.

She moved the maid sleeping on her feet to the side, then quietly got onto the bed and closed her eyes.

However, before he went to sleep, there was a smile on his face from beginning to end.

Mo Weinong and Yuan Jin looked at each other, then walked closer to the room with the bottle in their hands. After waiting for fifteen minutes to confirm that Yu Shuixian had fallen asleep, they flipped over the window and entered.

The dagger in her hand flashed slightly and slashed across the back of Yu Shuixian's hand. It was extremely quick, the wound was very small, and was about the size of a fingernail.

Even if he found it tomorrow, he would only think that the wound was caused by his carelessness.

Mo Weinong opened the bottle in her hand and sprinkled the medicinal powder on the wound.

After they were done, she and Yuan Jin quickly left the place.

Yuan Jin did not linger this time. After sending her back to the Female Envoy Palace and seeing that she had rested, he also returned.

A good night's sleep.

The next morning, Mo Weinong was woken up by Lan Qin. She looked at the dark sky outside the window in a daze and sighed in her heart.

After eating breakfast, she cleaned up a little and sat in the carriage, heading towards Aeolus.
