Master Sikong said seriously, “Follow the plan.”
The expert thought for a while and voiced his doubts. “But… will they suspect that the Master is scheming behind the scenes?”
Master Sikong said indifferently, “He said it himself. That attendant is new. Since he’s new, it’s possible that other forces are lurking in the Sikong family. What does it have to do with the Sikong family?”
“I understand.” With that, the expert cupped his hands at Master Sikong and led his brothers to “chase” the thieves.
Just as everyone came out in full strength, Milk Asura quietly set off.
Ah Wei brought the jade bottle and went all the way to the Sikong Manor. Sikong Ye’s situation was critical. If he still could not get the Yin Gu before sunset, then the Ten Thousand Gu King would no longer hesitate to sacrifice himself to protect Sikong Ye’s life.
Seeing that it was already noon, Ah Wei raised his speed to the limit. However, he did not go far before the experts of the Sang family pestered him.
This time, the Sang family did not send out too many peak experts, but a few Level Three Asura Kings were enough to surround and kill Ah Wei. Just as they were about to arrest Ah Wei, Milk Asura descended from the sky and carried Ah Wei on his back. He turned around and stuck out his tongue at them before running away!
The Asura Kings of the Sang family were furious. They raised their qinggong to the extreme and chased after this arrogant Level One Asura King. However, what drove them crazy was that no matter how they chased, they could not catch up to him!
The same doubts as the Level Five Asura King appeared in their hearts: What kind of f*cking qinggong was this?!
However, they could not catch up to him, and he could not shake them off.
An hour passed.
Two hours passed.
Four hours passed…
The sky became darker and darker, and the sun gradually set. In the Chaoyang Hall, Sikong Ye’s aura was getting weaker and weaker. The Ten Thousand Gu King quietly guarded him. Sikong Changfeng paced around the room and looked at the bloody sky from time to time. “Why isn’t he back yet? Did he not get it? The ancestor… can’t hold on much longer…”
Milk Asura and Ah Wei finally approached the Nether Mountain. Milk Asura used all his internal energy and threw Ah Wei fiercely in the direction of the Nether Mountain.
As long as they entered the Nether Mountain, it would be the Sikong family’s territory. However, the moment Ah Wei was thrown into the Nether Mountain, a powerful aura was like a vortex that grabbed Ah Wei with a huge suction force!
Ah Wei’s neck was grabbed by a large cold hand. The large hand slowly tightened, as if it wanted to break Ah Wei’s neck.
A carriage stopped by the road. Yu Wan lifted the curtain. “Stop!”
A few horses galloped over. The leader was Master Sang, Sang Zhonghua. Master Sikong and a few guards followed closely behind.
Master Sang tightened his grip on the reins and stopped.
Yu Wan also alighted from the carriage. She looked at Ah Wei, whose face had turned purple from the pinch, and questioned the Sang Family Head, “Grandpa, are you mistaken? He’s Sikong Yun’s attendant. Why did you capture him?”
Master Sang did not answer Yu Wan. Instead, he looked at the Asura Kings who had been chasing after him all afternoon. “Did you catch the wrong person?”
One of them said, “We didn’t. This kid and that Asura are acting suspiciously. They fled when they saw us. We’ve been catching them all afternoon.”
Yu Wan retorted, “They don’t know you. Of course they have to run when you suddenly chase after them!”
“Is that so?” Master Sang narrowed his eyes dangerously.
Yu Wan looked in the direction of the mountain. The sun was already setting. Her great-grandfather didn’t have much time left.
Yu Wan took a deep breath and said firmly, “Grandpa, he was ordered by my husband and me to return to the manor to get ginseng for my grandmother. He’s not a thief! I can swear in the name of the Saintess! I, Lan Ji, will die a horrible death if I lie!”
Master Sang looked at Yu Wan with a complicated expression. “Saintess, you and Yun’er are still young. Sometimes, you won’t know even if you’re being used. This kid has just come to Yun’er’s side. I’m afraid Yun’er and you don’t know his background. Don’t worry, even if he’s a thief, I won’t blame you and Yun’er!”
With that, Yu Wan should move aside.
However, Yu Wan did not do that. Her eyes flashed and she stood in front of Master Sang’s horse. “Grandpa, this is outside the Sikong Family’s door. How can you question the Sikong Family’s people in front of Master Sikong and the Saintess?”
