C50 (2/2)

Two hours later, Jun Mohan who was in the palace discussing matters was quickly pulled out by Dongfang Hao, and whispered into his ear.

His calm eyes swept over them for a bit, and then recovered back to normal. With the corner of his mouth raised, his faintly discernible smile made Dongfang Hao feel a chill down his spine.

Didn't Qing Shu say that the girl that lived in his residence ran away? How could he not care about that?

A few days ago, he had heard that Jun Mohan had hidden some beauties in the palace, so he had been looking for an opportunity to enter the clan s relative's mansion. He did not expect that Jun Mohan, that black-hearted man, would actually set a barrier in every direction.

Today, it wasn't easy for him to break the mechanism, only to see Qing Shu standing in the room dumbstruck, like a wooden chicken. After patrolling for a long time and seeing no trace of the beauty, Qing Shu told the beauty to run away.

What was there to be afraid of? He could not let this girl that he had gone through so much difficulty to run away, so he welcomed the flying snow and rushed over to the palace to tell him.

Who would have thought that he would just glance at him indifferently and walk out of the palace without saying a word?

He rubbed his head, puzzled. Had he guessed wrongly?

Jun Mohan who was walking outside of the palace seemed calm on the surface, but no one knew that he was filled with rage. That damned woman, didn't she know that her body was weak?

It was snowing heavily, and the road had long been covered with people who couldn't recognize the direction, not to mention travelling by carriage. If she were to ride a horse, not to mention that her body was currently weak, even if she was a robust man, he wouldn't be able to withstand the cold. He really didn't know how to appreciate his body.

”Turn around and head in the direction of the Phoenix Mountain.”

The guard in the carriage didn't dare to have any doubts as he turned around and headed towards the east side of the emperor.

Tens of meters away, a few waves of horses were following them.

In the carriage, Jun Mohan's eyes flashed with a dark and harsh light, the perfect jade like lips curved up into a smile, causing the guards to speed up and disappear into the snow.

The road leading to Phoenix Mountain had already been covered by snow, so it was impossible to tell where the road was and where the snow puddles were. Bai Zhixi was wearing a cape, and the pristine white muslin cloth was being blown by the cold wind and burned to the bone. Occasionally, the cold wind would blow violently against her muslin, making it so that she couldn't open her eyes.

But when he thought about the Lan Yi and Zi Li, who were acting filial for him at Phoenix Mountain, without bothering to attack with ice, he whipped his horse and sped up his pace to face the wind and snow.

”Lan Yi, do you think Miss will come tonight?”

At the foot of the Phoenix Mountain, Zi Li who was completely wrapped up, continuously rubbed his hands together to keep them warm, and looking at the vast expanse of whiteness in the distance, he asked with concern.

”Miss … She will come. We have to believe that she won't forget the agreement. ”

In truth, she was not completely sure. Although they had purposely set the day of the sacrifice to today, just to give the young miss some time, this morning, after seeing the young lady's face that was as white as paper, she did not know whether it was the right decision or the wrong one.

Winter's forest was always silent. Occasionally, there would be the chirping of birds, but it also carried a sense of desolation. Perhaps it was a complaint against the heavy snow that had fallen over a month ago.

”Lan Yi, a carriage is coming in front, could it be young miss?”

The sound of horses' footsteps broke the silence. Zi Li looked at the gradually approaching carriage, and in his heart, he jumped in joy. He could not help but reveal a smile on his face.

Such a big snow, could it be young miss?

Lan Yi was not as optimistic as Zi Li. Today, they had gone out before dawn. At that time, Miss was unconscious, and they had not even been at Phoenix Mountain for an hour, so how could Miss be so fast?

Just at that moment, when he brought them to clearly see the carriage, a dart broke through the curtain of the horse carriage and shot towards them. It was so fast that they were unable to avoid it.

Lan Yi's kung fu was not as good as Zi Li's, he was one step slower, and a cut was made on his arm, black blood flowing down his clothes, it was obvious that the flying dart was smeared with poison.

”Lan Yi...”

Zi Li, who had flown up, slowly stood on top of the tree fork. The snow that was pressing down on the tree instantly vanished, leaving behind only the bare trunk. Lan Yi's face was as white as snow, he took out his sword that was as white as snow, the cold Sword Qi piercing towards the carriage.

In the blink of an eye, dozens of black-clothed people suddenly flew out from the forest and surrounded them. The black eyes that were exposed glared at them like tigers stalking their prey.

”Little girl, we meet again? Do you think this is fate? ”

Lan Yi suddenly raised his head to look, only to see the red clothed female slowly walking towards her. She was still as enchanting as ever, her lips as red as blood was dazzling under the shine of the white snow.

It was very obvious that this was the woman who kidnapped Bai Zhixi Mountain back then.

At this moment, she did not wish for the Young Miss to come. She had fought with the red-clothed female before, and just with her and Zi Li alone, they were afraid that they would not be able to protect her safety.

”Witch, what are you trying to do?”

The hot-tempered Zi Li had a ruthless look in her eyes. She knew that the girl in front of her was the witch who kidnapped her young miss.
