After Zhao Qi left, Meng Tianmo asked, "Does the crown prince think that those people are hiding under the sand?"

"Legends don't come from nowhere, they usually have their own reasons, but it's just that staying under the sand is really a bit unimaginable, and it looks like we still have to continue investigating, but in fact, we don't need to rush, because we won't hide, the people from Kingdom of Sha and Moon will definitely take the initiative and attack."

Meng Tianmo nodded in agreement.

The desert at night was especially cold, and not only were there citizens of the Kingdom of Sha and Moon, there were also Wolf Kings in the desert. Mu Yefan stood in front of his tent and looked at the moon in the sky, not knowing what the current Bai Yixuan was doing, after everything here was settled, Mu Yefan was prepared to return and advance his plans.

He really couldn't bear Bai Yixuan marrying Xiao Ziyi. If she did, he probably would have gone crazy, but unfortunately, this wasn't the time to be a girl anymore.

Mu Yefan's speculations were not wrong, the people from the Kingdom of Sha and Moon started to move very quickly, and their movements were extremely quick and violent, however, what followed was the disaster of the entire large army.

As the weather in the desert was bad, half of these soldiers that rarely came to the desert were sick. Mu Yefan and Meng Tianmo frowned as they checked on the situation, but they could not do anything about it.

Even Meng Tianmo and Mu Yefan felt unwell. Before the battle even began, they had already lost half of their strength, so no matter who it was, they would be able to realize the severity of this matter.

"His royal highness the prince, the best thing we can do now is just defend and not attack. We can wait for our soldiers to recover, or else we won't have any chance of winning."

"You're right, but the soldiers' bodies can't be taken care of in a day and night. Kingdom of Sha and Moon is approaching in full fury, they won't wait.

The two of them fell into silence at the same time, and Mu Yefan was the first one to break the silence, "I have an idea."

"Please speak, His royal highness the prince."

"Find out where they're hiding. I'm going there myself."

Meng Tianmo's expression changed, "You absolutely cannot. The desert night is already dangerous, let alone searching for traces of them. His royal highness the prince, you are the root of the nation, you absolutely cannot go to the past."

"Tianmo, we met as children. It's just that we haven't seen each other in so many years, you don't need to call this place His royal highness the prince."

This sentence brought back Meng Tianmo's memories. When he was young, he did play with Ninth Prince, but Ninth Prince had the personality of a young adult, hence he took good care of everyone around him. Naturally, Meng Tianmo had also been taken care of by Mu Yefan.

"Nine, that's what I called you when I was young. It's quite disrespectful to think about it now. At that time, everyone said that you would be the future Crown Prince. You were still the Crown Prince by coincidence."

"I'm not the root of the nation, so I can't afford to wait for this sentence. Other than me, the Great Zhao and Bei Che, you don't have to worry, the reason I'm going is because I feel that I'm the only one who can find the root of the problem. My ears are very useful."

Although Meng Tianmo was still hesitant this time, he did not refuse. It would be useless even if he refused as Mu Yefan was the His royal highness the prince, he still had to listen to him.

However, at night, Meng Tianmo would never have thought that Mu Yefan would actually go to the activity grounds of the Kingdom of Sha and Moon alone, and this completely scared Meng Tianmo to the point that he broke out in a cold sweat, Mu Yefan now really did not let people relax, and it was true that Mu Yefan's temperament was very different from when he was young, he was too quiet now and was not even willing to express any thoughts.

As Mu Yefan walked in the desert, the night was very cold. The temperature difference between day and night here would give people the illusion that he was watching the rise of the sun during the day and when night came, everything would become so cold that there was no hope. Once Mu Yefan raised his head and looked at the moon in the sky, the emotions in his eyes became unfathomable.

The desert wasn't actually quiet. There was the sound of wind, the sound of sand flowing in a dark sand pit, and some sounds that came from an unknown place. It was so empty that there was a trace of strangeness.

But other than these voices, Mu Yefan could also hear some words that sounded like they were talking crazy. To Mu Yefan, these sounds were coming from underground very clearly.

These people were actually hiding in the sand, but since they could still talk, then it definitely wasn't like the legends. These people were buried in the sand, and this was probably the reason why these people disappeared.

Mu Yefan stood there and listened for a long time, until the cold wind blew through all the clothes on his body. Although the desert seemed to be vast and boundless, there was no difference in any places, Mu Yefan did not know what lay beneath the desert. However, those people from the Kingdom of Sha and Moon knew very well, and it was actually very easy to find out what was going on.

The people of the Kingdom of Sha and Moon were here to fight for the land, so they could not stay hidden underground forever. Sooner or later, they would come out, and this was just a matter of time.

Borrowing the power of his ears, Mu Yefan found a place with the loudest sound, maybe these sounds were so loud that it would cause a person to lose their life, other than adding some mysterious and strange Qi to the desert, no one else would hear it, but Mu Yefan could hear it very clearly.

Borrowing the cover of the rising and falling sand, Mu Yefan successfully hid his body all the way until the faint light of dawn. Because of the cold, Mu Yefan, who was unable to move, finally heard a trace of an unusual sound.

Then, Mu Yefan saw a few people from the Kingdom of Sha and Moon slowly crawling out.

Sure enough, there were mechanisms beneath the desert, but it was unknown if the Kingdom of Sha and Moon had intentionally built it for so many years, or if this place had already existed. It wasn't important, the most important thing was to remember this place.

Mu Yefan did not dare to act rashly, and watched as all of these people slowly crawled out from that place. Very quickly, they stood at a place filled with Kingdom of Sha and Moon warriors.

Standing beside that man was an extremely beautiful woman, only that she looked a little out of the ordinary. Actually, the one who had really caught Mu Yefan's attention was that woman, who had a jade pendant that looked exactly like Bai Yixuan's on her body.

In that instant, Mu Yefan didn't even know what he had done. In short, he charged out, the sword in his hand aiming straight for the neck of the luxurious man who was serving him.

That man might not have expected his life to end because he loved a jade pendant on his concubine.

Perhaps it was due to the cold and lack of water, but Mu Yefan's mind was currently in a mess. The jade pendant also stimulated Mu Yefan's thoughts;

Mu Yefan heard the girl scream and immediately pulled off the jade pendant. Tentacle Mu Yefan knew that this jade pendant was completely different from Bai Yixuan's.

However, it was already too late. The surrounding people did not even manage to react in time, but now, the soldiers of the Kingdom of Sha and Moon had seen the sudden appearance of this assassin. His body was still stained with the blood of their clan leader.

However, this man looked as if he had gone mad, as he stared blankly at the jade pendant. How could he miss out on such a situation?

As if he sensed something, the grief in his eyes had not dispersed yet, and the sword in his hand was unsheathed once again. That person did not even have time to react before being defeated by Mu Yefan's sword once again.

Meng Tianmo did not dare to sleep for the entire night. As expected, their His royal highness the prince did not fail to live up to everyone's expectations for a successful night.

He was not as free and easy as Mu Yefan. Not to mention if the His royal highness the prince really died in Kingdom of Sha and Moon's territory, the Emperor would not even risk his life to fight him. Even with his relationship with Mu Yefan, it was impossible for him to not do anything.

Bringing a team of pioneers, Meng Tianmo went to the desert where the people of Kingdom of Sha and Moon were suspected to have appeared, in the end, he heard the sounds of killing from far away. The Kingdom of Sha and Moon had been extremely quiet these past two days, it was a rare scene like this, but what exactly happened here?

Mu Yefan's eyes were completely red, he could not figure out where he was at the moment, but he suddenly remembered that Bai Yixuan had not completely removed the poison from the woman back then, so he should not go overboard. If there really came a day when the poison broke out again, it would affect his consciousness.

Mu Yefan realized that his poison had flared up once again. And it was in this kind of situation, other than seeing the blood-red color of Mu Yefan's eyes, he couldn't see anything, nor could he feel the pain in his body at all. The only thing he could feel was the even colder feeling brought about by the loss of his blood.

The sun was clearly right in front of his eyes, but Mu Yefan felt that it was extremely far away, as if he couldn't feel it at all.

As the sword stabbed into his flesh, Mu Yefan's figure was finally on the verge of collapse. He lifted his eyes to look at the foreign woman, and it seemed that she could not believe that his sword had actually stabbed into Mu Yefan's body.

However, Mu Yefan still held the jade pendant tightly, and then slowly wiped the blood off the corner of his mouth.

Meng Tianmo, who was in the distance, jumped in fright, and rushed out with Vanguard. This was their first battle with Kingdom of Sha and Moon, it could not be considered a success, the Vanguard Battalion had lost more than half of their troops, but because the people of the Kingdom of Sha and Moon were too familiar with the terrain of the desert, they were heavily injured by Mu Yefan at the same time.

Aside from the king, the Kingdom of Sha and Moon had a total of five clan leaders. Just like that, a leader was accidentally chopped off by Mu Yefan, and soon after, they discovered the secret of the Kingdom of Sha and Moon warriors' hiding place.

There was indeed something fishy going on under the desert, and there was actually something like a great hall down there. When everyone entered, they realized that this wasn't a great hall, but a military tomb, and it was even the tomb of a Chinese. It was probably the tomb of a certain general of the previous dynasty.

It seemed like the legend of the Kingdom of Sha and Moon was read like this. The people of the Kingdom of Sha and Moon were indeed good at hiding in the desert, but only hiding in tombs in the desert.

Meng Tianmo could only say that he was half-joyous, and completely took off the Kingdom of Sha and Moon's mysterious veil. Worried was that Mu Yefan's condition was getting worse and worse, and the accompanying military doctor was sweating profusely as well, but there was nothing he could do about it.

All of these news were sent back to the capital, and after Xiao Ziyi found out about it, he hesitated for a moment before heading to Mubai's brothel.

Currently, Bai Yixuan was not even home, and spent most of her time inside the Mubai's brothel, not knowing what she was doing. Xiao Ziyi knew that Bai Yixuan was thinking about him.
