Zhong Ling nodded, and the two of them found a hidden bush and hid inside.
The sound of horse hooves could be heard. Through the gaps between the flowers, a black horse could be clearly seen galloping over.
The person on the horse was Mu Wanqing.
Zhong Ling whispered," Big Brother Xu, Sister Mu is here.”
Xu Xiake made a shushing gesture.
Mu Wanqing rode Black Rose to the peak of Pine Ridge. She stopped in front of a ten thousand pound boulder at the edge of the cliff. She reined in the reins and jumped off the horse, looking towards the mountainside.
Zhong Ling whispered," Big Brother Xu, Sister Mu is a person with a sharp tongue but a soft heart. She looks cold on the outside but is actually very kind on the inside. She must be checking to see if we've left. She must be very sad now that we've left."”
Mu Wanqing looked around at the cliff for a while and felt dejected. After a long time, she turned her horse around and returned to her wooden house.
Xu Xiake said," Since she hasn't left, that's good. We don't have to run around anymore. Let's wait here. Those killers should be here in two days."”
Unknowingly, the sun had already set. The sky darkened and the moon slowly rose.
Since he had nothing to do, Xu Xiake sat cross-legged in the flowers and began to practice the Northern Dark Divine Art.
By the time he completed one cycle of the Northern Dark Divine Art, it was already midnight.
At this moment, there were faint footsteps coming up the mountain in the night wind. Xu Xiake's hearing was extremely sharp, and he accurately caught the direction.
Under the hazy moonlight, a group of more than ten people dressed in black headed towards Mu Wanqing's house.
Xiake Xu shook Zhong Ling's arm. Zhong Ling suddenly woke up and quickly asked," Big Brother Xu, are those killers here?”
Xu Xiake said," It's so late at night. Who else could it be other than these people?”
However, Zhong Ling did not have Xu Xiake's ability to determine the location of the sound. She only looked in the direction of Mu Wanqing's house, but did not find the shadow of the enemy.
"Big Brother Xu, let's go meet up with Sister Mu now!”
However, Xiake Xu waved his hand and said," Don't be anxious. If we go out now, we will only alert the enemy. They should have more than this number of people coming this time. What I can hear now is only the latest batch. They should have split into several groups and come out from several directions. We have to wait for them to gather before we catch them all in one fell swoop to prevent future trouble."”
Zhong Ling nodded." Yes, Brother Xu is really thoughtful. If we kill all the bad guys, Sister Mu can rest easy."”
He looked towards Mu Wanqing's wooden house and saw that the lights were still on.
Ever since Mu Wanqing received the news from Xu Xiake, she had been on tenterhooks all night. She could not sleep at all because she did not know when the enemy hiding in the dark would come looking for her.
She sat in front of the dressing table, facing the bronze mirror. She pulled the veil on her face, revealing her exquisite face.
She sighed in her heart. Why was her beautiful face hidden under a veil?
After taking a look, she quickly pulled the veil back on because she also felt that there seemed to be danger approaching her.
Mu Wanqing picked up her bamboo hat and put it on her head. At the same time, she gripped her sword tightly and quickly walked out of the boudoir to the main entrance.
The door was knocked away by a huge rock and the moonlight poured down like water, covering Mu Wanqing's tall and straight figure, stretching her shadow.
"Who is it? Sneaking around, get out here!”Mu Wanqing shouted.
At times like this, the louder she screamed, the more empty her heart was, the less confident she was, and the more afraid she was.
She was indeed very afraid. After all, she was just a weak woman. How could she not be afraid in this desolate mountain?
"Who is playing tricks!" Mu Wanqing jumped out and slashed her sword at the broken wooden door. She used a fierce posture to hide the panic in her heart.
This person's name was Granny Ping, and she was Li Qingluo's subordinate from Mantuo Villa.
"Are you from Mantuo Villa?"
Granny Rui, who was beside Granny Ping, rushed forward and said coldly," At least you have some knowledge. It seems that you haven't forgotten what you did a few days ago, right?”
