Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

A ripple-like spiritual light flew out along with the tune and entered everyone’s ears. Some people’s eyelids began to droop, and their minds were wandering away…

At this moment, Wan Zhilin suddenly made a gesture.

Then, a row of soldiers took out the gong on their backs and hit it hard.

Clang!

With just one clang, everyone regained their senses. After two more clangs, they were no longer affected.

Seeing this, Chu Qingzhi stopped playing the flute and smiled faintly. “Not bad. You thought of a countermeasure so quickly!”

Tang Jinghong stared at the people at the foot of the mountain. “In that case, we can only capture the leader first.”

Gong Wentang called out to the two of them, “Wait, what do you want me to do?”

Tang Jinghong glanced at Gong Wentang. “You were implicated. When things get chaotic later, run for your life.”

Gong Wentang said righteously, “No, I can’t do such a thing. I’ll help you later. We’ll leave together.”

Chu Qingzhi couldn’t help but nod at Gong Wentang with admiration. This person was quite heroic.

Tang Jinghong reminded him, “We’re going to catch Wan Zhilin later. If you leave now, you will be fine. But if you don’t, you’ll definitely be regarded as one of us by them.”

Gong Wentang said nonchalantly, “On account of you giving me the snow lotus, I’m willing to help.”

Chu Qingzhi said, “Let’s go.”

Tang Jinghong nodded and took out his sword. He circulated his internal energy and flew down the mountain.

Chu Qingzhi followed closely behind.

Gong Wentang was stunned. He pulled out the flexible sword at his waist and activated his internal energy. The flexible sword turned into a hard sword. Holding the sword, he flew down.

There were archers below. Seeing them fly down, Wan Zhilin immediately ordered, “Shoot them. Leave no one alive!”

The archers obeyed. In an instant, thousands of arrows were aimed at the three of them.

Chu Qingzhi took out the jade flute. This time, it was an offensive tune. Rings of spiritual light quickly spread out and shattered the arrows. Then, they hit the bodies of the archers and sent them flying with screams.

The assassins drew their swords and surrounded the three of them. However, they were also sent flying by the spiritual light. Before they could get close, they were already seriously injured and fell to the ground.

The strong destructive power consumed Chu Qingzhi’s spiritual power greatly. The spiritual power in her body was being depleted rapidly. She could only continue for ten minutes at most…

Tang Jinghong’s expression was solemn. He looked at Chu Qingzhi with heartache and sped up flying. He grabbed Wan Zhilin and put the sword on his neck. He shouted coldly, “All of you, retreat!”

Everyone immediately stopped attacking.

Chu Qingzhi stopped playing the flute. She had used 70% of her spiritual power, and there was still 30% left. Fortunately, there was still some left.

Gong Wentang raised his sword as he charged over, but before he could land, the battle had already ended.

Wan Zhilin didn’t expect to be targeted first. In his panic, he immediately said, “Young heroes, we can talk and negotiate…”

Tang Jinghong threatened, “Let us go, or you’ll die with us.”

Wan Zhilin felt the cold sword pressing against his neck. He shouted, “Step away, all of you!”

His subordinates immediately made way…

Holding Wan Zhilin hostage, Tang Jinghong and the other two slowly walked out of the crowd. When they completely walked out, Tang Jinghong knocked Wan Zhilin unconscious with his hand and took him away.

“Don’t follow, or I’ll kill him immediately!”

The soldiers didn’t dare to take the risk. They stood on the spot and watched as Wan Zhilin was taken away. Then, they looked at each other and were at a loss, not knowing what to do.

They flew for a while before stopping in a forest.

Gong Wentang looked at the two of them in admiration. They could even break out of the encirclement with thousands of soldiers. No wonder they dared to kick up a fuss in the northern border, especially Xiao Qing, who could use a flute as a weapon.

Tang Jinghong casually threw Wan Zhilin to the ground.

The pain woke Wan Zhilin up. Seeing that the three of them were still in front of him, he felt that he might as well continue to faint. “What exactly do you want?”

No one answered him.

Tang Jinghong pulled Chu Qingzhi to the side and asked with concern, “Xiao Qing, this time…”

Chu Qingzhi knew what Tang Jinghong wanted to ask and said directly, “I have ample supply of spiritual power this time. I’m alright.”

Tang Jinghong felt especially guilty. “I’m sorry, Qingzhi. I always put you in danger.”

Chu Qingzhi patted Tang Jinghong’s arm and said with a smile, “Why are you treating me like an outsider? If you say that again, I’ll be angry!”

Tang Jinghong was indescribably grateful to Chu Qingzhi. He said, “Let’s continue walking. We’ll talk when we’re safe.”

Chu Qingzhi smiled and nodded. “Okay.”

As the group continued walking, they entered a bamboo forest.

Green bamboos stood tall and straight on the ground. The ground was covered with thick bamboo leaves, and not a single inch of soil could be seen. When the mountain wind blew, the bamboo leaves rustled, and a bamboo fragrance wafted. It was fresh and pleasant.

Suddenly, a fog rolled over from outside the bamboo forest, blurring everyone’s vision.

The four of them immediately became vigilant…

Chu Qingzhi frowned slightly, feeling that something was wrong. “Let’s continue.”

Tang Jinghong grabbed Chu Qingzhi’s hand and led her forward. “Be careful.”

Chu Qingzhi nodded.

After walking for a while, they realized that they were still in the bamboo forest. It was as if they were walking in circles and had not budged an inch.

Chu Qingzhi waved her hand and cut a mark on the bamboo next to her. “Let’s try again.”

Tang Jinghong nodded. The few of them chose a direction and walked over.

After a while, Gong Wentang pointed at the bamboo and said in surprise, “We’re back.”

Chu Qingzhi had already seen it. “Someone must have set up a trap.”

She looked around, then closed her eyes and released her divine sense, extending it in the form of a ring.

Gong Wentang looked at Chu Qingzhi curiously. Could it be that she was going to show off some secret techniques again?

Seeing this, Wan Zhilin slowly retreated. When they weren’t paying attention to him, he immediately ran back.

Gong Wentang chased after him without hesitation. “1’11 chase after him.”

Chu Qingzhi closed her eyes and said, “No need. He’ll come back.”

Gong Wentang wanted to see if what Chu Qingzhi said was true, so he stopped in his tracks.

The bamboo forest was indeed huge, but it was not endless. Under the effect of the trap, it seemed endless.

When her divine sense arrived at the edge of the bamboo forest, she saw a magnificent courtyard.

There was actually someone living here?

Could it be the so-called hidden family?

Suddenly, a familiar figure appeared in her divine sense… Tong Yujie..
