Mu Sheng jumped down from the wall, cleverly avoiding the sharp knife and was about to move forward. But the moment he lifted his foot, he carefully threw the treasured sword forward as a test. Unexpectedly, as soon as the treasured sword was thrown, a very tight rope appeared on the seemingly safe ground. In an instant, it tied up Mu Sheng's sword and hung it upside down on a tree.

Looking at this scene, Mu Ying was secretly shocked, but the corner of his mouth couldn't help but reveal a smile. This Xue Ruyun was truly not a simple person. If it wasn't for him being extra careful, he would be the one hanging on top of it right now. As Mu Ying thought of this, his interest in Xue Ruyun grew.

Mu Ying dragged his heavy shoes and, step by step, probed his way into the courtyard. Just as he was about to sit down, the four stone benches suddenly started spinning, encircling him. As he rapidly spun around to attack, Mu Ying was about to be squashed to the ground by a few stone benches. Xue Ruyun nervously reached out his hand, about to switch off the mechanism. However, at this moment, Mu Rong Zhan suddenly spun around, spinning from where he stood and landing on the stone table with one foot. He then used all his strength to smash several stone benches into pieces.

"Good, good, good." While clapping his hands, Xue Ruyun walked out from inside.

"The art of recruiting kings is indeed powerful. Anyone who passes the first two stages would be considered powerful. I never thought that after the time it takes to burn an incense's worth of time, I would be able to pass so many trials without suffering any injuries. Xue Ruoyun repeatedly praised him. This was from the bottom of his heart, and from his admiration for his opponent.

When Mu Ying heard him praise himself, he couldn't help but feel proud. "So it turns out that you, Xue Luoyun, only have this little ability. You're nothing more than a minor skill." Mu Ying said as he patted the dust off his body.

In reality, this small trick had caused him to lose his treasured sword, and there were even heavy stones at his feet. I can't take off my shoes, it would be rude. Xue Luoyun was able to see through it, but he covered his mouth and snickered.

Seeing her staring at his feet, Mu Ying covered his mouth and snickered. Only then did he understand. He quickly tried to explain, "It … it was just an accident."

"This could be counted as an accident." As Xue Ruyun spoke, he quickly asked Yun Zhi to remove the treasured sword and hand it over to Mu Ying. "Take this sword with you. This will be your payment for saving my life."

Mu Ying glanced at Xue Ruyun and took the sword, but he couldn't pull it out. The inside of the sword had been stuck. It was a pity that this good sword, just as he was about to leave, he heard Xue Ruoyun call out to him from behind.

"Anything else?" Mu Ying turned his head.

"This is the decomposing agent of the glue. Eh, it's the antidote. As long as you drip this on, the glue on the treasured sword will automatically fall off, and everything will be back to normal. And... These shoes. "

Xue Ruyun pointed at Mu Ying's shoes as he spoke. Mu Ying took two steps back, looking a bit embarrassed.

"This shoe can also use this potion."

Mu Sheng grabbed the bottle of medicine. "I'll be back tomorrow." With that, he disappeared into the forest.

"Ha ha-ha, ha ha-ha!" After Mu Ying left, Xue Mo couldn't hold back anymore and burst out in laughter. Earlier, when he saw Mu Ying's embarrassed appearance, he thought about how he had saved his life many times, so he couldn't help but laugh at him and not expose him.

Mu Ying dashed all the way home and met Wei Ming, who was on patrol.

"Your Royal Highness, what are you doing?" Wei Ming pointed at Mu Ying's feet and asked in confusion.

"Un, this..." For a moment, Mu Ying didn't know how to explain. Then, with a stern expression, he asked, "Have you finished your patrol work? If not, don't ask blindly."

"Yes."

"You may leave."

Comforting one step at a time, he turned his head back to look at Mu Ying. He couldn't figure it out no matter how hard he thought.

Mu Sheng's face was stern and his body was tense. When he heard Wei Ming's footsteps leaving, he hurried back to his room to change clothes. He never would have thought that Xue Ruyun would think so carefully and lay out his plans. Tomorrow, he would definitely show Xue Ruoyun how powerful he was.

At midnight on the third day, Mu Sheng came to see Xue Ruyun again. Knowing that she would put glue on the wall, he decided not to climb over the wall, and instead swaggered his way through the main entrance. He hadn't expected that the usually tightly shut courtyard door would open so wide in the middle of the night. It was a little strange.

Standing at the doorway, Mu Ying asked doubtfully. He braced himself and slowly walked in. The deeper he went, the weirder it became. Because no matter how he probed, there was no response from inside. It looked extremely safe, but it was also very safe. It made people feel that something was wrong.

From afar, Mu Ying saw Xue Ruyun sitting by himself in the courtyard as he watched him drink his tea. A smile appeared on his face, which made Mu Ying feel even more strange. There must be something deceitful about her appearance. With his previous two experiences, Mu Ying became even more careful. Because this Xue Ruyun was very strange, he often did not follow common sense and thought that it would be hard to figure it out in junior high school.

However, no matter how he looked around, he couldn't find the trap. The closer he got to Xue Ruyun, the more shocked Mu Ying became. There was definitely a trick involved in this. Seeing that they had passed through the small forest in front of them and reached the courtyard where Xue Ruoyun was sitting, Mu Ying felt that the trap was definitely there. He became even more careful, his heart rising to his throat.

It was a bit dark in front of him. Mu Ying was focused on looking forward when a white shadow suddenly floated past him. He turned his head and saw a white shadow suddenly floating towards him.

Mu Sheng could not react in time, and instinctively let out a shriek. Soon he realized it was a mask, but it was too late. In the courtyard, he saw Xue Ruyun laughing to the point where he was out of breath.

"Hahaha, hahaha!" Mu Rong Zhan used his sword to shatter the mask before angrily walking out into the courtyard. He placed his sword on the table and sat down. So it turned out that Xue Ruyun was purposely playing a trick on him today. He had purposefully set up a trap two days ago, but today, he decided to play it by ear. He didn't set any traps, but it made Mu Sheng tremble in fear. She really, really did not follow common sense. Mu Sheng shook his head.

"I didn't expect the magnificent General Conqueror to be frightened to the point of screaming by my small mask. If this were to spread, how do you think everyone would look at you?" After laughing for a long time, his smile finally stopped. He caught his breath, drank a mouthful of water, and said.

Seeing him finish laughing, Mu Ying was so angry that he couldn't say a word.

"You sure are cunning. If you had told me earlier, I would have been prepared for all the traps. In the end, he didn't do anything. He knew that I was nervous and he intentionally put on a mask for me... " Mu Ying had no way to deal with her. It seemed that he had really underestimated this woman.

Mu Ying had nothing to say. After sitting down for a while, he turned around and was about to leave.

"Hey, aren't you going to sit down and drink a cup of tea to calm your nerves?" Xue Luoyun repeatedly shouted a few times from behind. Mu Sheng, however, left without looking back.
