Chapter 20 - Disguise of the Special Envoy of the Spirit Eagle Palace

"Hmph. How many people want to see my face, but how can you just look at it? Unless it's someone I like, there's no way I can see my true appearance." Mu Wanqing coldly said when she heard this.

Hearing this, Ling Xiao secretly rejoiced in his heart, because he had already successfully attracted Mu Wanqing's attention.

"Lady Mu is truly different from the other love women who play around with rouge and thick makeup." Ling Xiao praised.

"Let's go, let's not waste any more time. If the people from the Spirit Eagle Palace really come, then we won't be able to bear the consequences." Mu Wanqing frowned as she was obviously a bit worried. After all, this was the territory of the Immeasurable Sword Sect.

But Ling Xiao was not afraid, with the microstep in his hand and his extremely pure Spirit Qi, even if he was surrounded and attacked, it would not be difficult for him to kill his way out.

Furthermore, the more urgent the situation they were in, the happier Ling Xiao would be. Only in that kind of crisis would Ling Xiao's strength be displayed, giving Mu Wanqing the most ferocious psychological impact a cold girl would have.

After the two of them changed into the special attire of the Spirit Eagle Palace, they walked towards the hilum of the Immeasurable Sword Sect one after the other.

Presumably, Mu Wanqing had already made sufficient preparations for this trip, so Ling Xiao was extremely at ease. On the way, he had observed the beautiful scenery of the hilum from all directions, and it really looked like this was the first time he was here at the hilum.

"Miss Mu, do you know where Miss Zhong Ling is being held?" Ling Xiao asked in a low voice.

"As Wan Chou's daughter, I think the Limitless Sword Sect did not dare lock her up with those filthy and crude brutes, so they must have given his a room." Mu Wanqing replied in a low voice.

"Seems like he's locked up in a rather tight place." Ling Xiao said, intentionally or not.

Mu Wanqing said softly upon hearing this. "So what? I have long made all the preparations. I am sure that I will be able to save Zhong Ling safely."

"What Lady Mu said is right. A girl like you who is both wise and brave are naturally well-prepared. But don't worry, I will take care of all the troubles at the crucial moment." Ling Xiao boasted about both of them.

"Sect Master Ling, please do not give me any trouble later." Mu Wanqing said proudly.

Hearing this, Ling Xiao couldn't help but laugh. How could Ling Xiao create trouble? However, he still nodded and said, "Everything seems to be under Lady Mu's command."

While walking on the road of hilum, Mu Wanqing suddenly turned and entered into a rock garden. Ling Xiao hurriedly followed her.

The deeper they went, the fewer houses they saw. There were more flowers, plants and trees, making the place even quieter.

"This was originally a place to entertain guests. No one is allowed to enter, and no one is allowed to go out as they please. Thus, no one would normally notice this place. This is also our chance." Mu Wanqing whispered.

"But there are quite a few rooms here, and there are also hidden guards in the surrounding forest. We don't have much time to move around." Ling Xiao scratched his head, as though he was truly worried.

"As long as we pay attention to them, it will be fine. Sect Master Ling, follow me closely." This time, Mu Wanqing acted like he was commanding his subordinates, as if he had really looked down on Ling Xiao.

"Understood, I will be careful not to drag you down." Hearing that, Ling Xiao looked serious, as if he had made a decision.
