Just as Li Chengfeng had expected, after the time it takes for half an incense stick to burn, the disciples of the Star City Sect had already arrived. One couldn't blame them for being slow. After all, although they had a close relationship with the Fourth Prince, at this sensitive time, they didn't dare to get too close to the Fourth Prince. They didn't dare to move into the Imperial Plantation or even live nearby.
After all, righteous cultivators cherished their lives and reputation. Living in the Imperial Plantation was suicidal and living nearby was inviting trouble.
It was also because of this that Li Chengfeng managed to save Yuehan and the others without any mishaps.
Dao Tuming, who was at the Star City Gate, was dumbfounded at the terrible scene in front of him. He couldn't help but curse, "I told you to strengthen the vigilance. What the hell are these good-for-nothings doing?"
At this time, a breeze passed by his side, followed by a very faint fragrance. Dao Tuming didn't need to turn his head to know that Senior Sister Chong Mi Jing had arrived. He immediately restrained his anger and said respectfully, "Senior Sister, the person has been rescued."
Chong Mi Jing glanced around and saw that the Junior Brothers and Sisters around her were all dumbfounded, all of them sucked in a breath of cold air. Only her expression remained unchanged, not even the slightest fluctuation could be seen in her eyes as she asked, "Who did it?"
Dao Tuming cursed in his heart. How would I know?
However, he replied honestly, "Maybe it was the Spiritual Mountain Sect who rescued him?"
He said casually but his eyes lit up. "That's right, it must be the Spiritual Mountain Sect's bastards who saved her!"
Chong Mijing glanced at him. "How do you know?"
Dao Tuming chuckled and said, "These few witnesses are closely related to the Taiyang Murder Case. In the entire Divine Capital, the ones who are most closely related to the Taiyang Murder Case and have the most reason and motive to save them must be Li Chengfeng and the rest from the Soul Mountain Sect!
In terms of strength and motive, Li Chengfeng is definitely the one! "
Dao Tuming didn't expect that his random guess would point to the target and hit the nail on the head!
Chong Mijing thought for a moment and nodded, obviously agreeing with his judgment. Dao Tuming was overjoyed and quickly said, "Senior Sister, then we'll go look for trouble with these Spiritual Mountain Sect bastards!"
Chong Mijing glanced at him. "Do you have any proof?"
Dao Tuming was speechless. He said, "Are we … going to have to swallow this grievance in silence?"
Chong Mi Jing coldly said: "We are only responsible for helping the Fourth Prince capture those people, how to look after them after they are captured is none of our business."
Dao Tuming was dumbfounded. "Senior Sister, what should we do? The other sects in the Jianghu will …"
Chong Mi Jing lightly said: "At present, the Fourth Prince is under house arrest, and his future is uncertain, do not act rashly."
Then, she turned to the others. "The World Grand Tournament is just around the corner. Do not be distracted and prepare for the tournament with all your might. Li Chengfeng and the other Spiritual Mountain Sect disciples will be attending the tournament too. If you have any dissatisfaction, you can vent it on them during the tournament."
Some of these Star City Sect disciples were indeed secretly thinking about whether to find trouble with the Spirit Mountain Sect, but after hearing Chong Mi Jing's words, their hearts immediately shivered and they solemnly said: "We will obey Senior Sister's command."
After Chong Mi Jing took one last deep look at the deep hole in the middle of the pit, she pondered for a moment, then turned into a cyan light and flew away, the other Star City Gate disciples also followed her.
…
On the other side, in the wilderness, ten miles away.
The once quiet and deserted wilderness suddenly shook, the animals and mountain birds in the forest scurried away in fright, flapping their wings as they took to the skies.
Then, a huge bump appeared on the ground, followed by a green 'python' bursting out of the ground, 'spitting' out a few people. It was Li Chengfeng, Yuehan, Little Bamboo, and the Lady Boss who was paralysed on the ground.
They had just emerged from the ground when two figures flew out of the bushes. It was Xiaobao and Han Tianxing.
When they saw that Li Chengfeng had rescued Yuehan, they immediately left for the agreed location to meet up with Li Chengfeng and the others, ensuring that he would not be attacked when he came out.
After Li Chengfeng carried Yuehan out, he did not have time to talk to her. He put her down and asked Xiaobao and Han Tianxing anxiously, "How was it? Did anyone catch up?"
Xiaobao grinned. "No, those idiots from the Star City Gate are probably still sleeping!"
Li Chengfeng said solemnly, "Don't let your guard down!
At this moment, this matter was no small matter!
If word gets out, they'll be executed immediately! "
Xiaobao's smile faded. "Alright, there's no one else nearby."
As he spoke, there was a flash of green light, and two figures fell to the ground. Little Bell staggered, but managed to steady herself. Liu Sumei, on the other hand, fell limply to the ground.
Little Bell was shocked. She immediately hugged Liu Sumei and said, "Senior Sister!
Senior Sister, what's wrong? "
Li Chengfeng was shocked too. He quickly walked up and grabbed Liu Sumei's wrist to check her pulse and True Yuan. Little Bell slapped his hand away, glaring at him.
This rescue mission was extremely dangerous. Life and death were separated by a hair's breadth!
If it wasn't for Li Chengfeng's rescue, if it wasn't for Li Chengfeng's insistence on saving the Lady Boss, Liu Sumei wouldn't have been pushed to the brink of death, and they wouldn't have nearly lost their lives.
All this while, Little Bell did not understand and was dissatisfied with Liu Sumei's' one-sided love '. What made her even angrier was that Li Chengfeng knew how Liu Sumei felt about him yet he pretended to be ignorant and kept his distance. He would rather be with a thousand-faced demon than face her Senior Sister's unrepentant sacrifice.
Although she had complained like this, Liu Sumei had only smiled and said nothing. Little Bell had been with her Senior Sister for many years, and knew her Senior Sister's personality very well.
She looked gentle and calm, like an orchid in the garden, or a lotus flower in the water. She had a stunning face, but she never competed for beauty. She stood aloof from the world, and never took the initiative to start a fight with others. She looked weak, but in reality, she was resolute and courageous. Once she made up her mind, no one could change her mind. Even Liu Sumei's master, Qu Wan Rulai was the same.
Little Bell could not stop her but she felt sorry for her Senior Sister. Now that she had escaped death, her anger exploded.
Li Chengfeng was taken aback by her attitude but quickly understood. He put down his hand, embarrassed. "You've overdrafted your powers. You'll be fine after a few days of rest. If there's anything you need help with, just let me know …"
The more Little Bell listened, the angrier she got. She felt as if she had been wronged. Without waiting for Li Chengfeng to finish, she said with reddened eyes, "You don't have to pretend to be a good person!" She pushed Li Chengfeng away and supported Liu Sumei to leave.
However, just as she took out a talisman from her chest to cast a spell, she felt short of breath and coughed violently. She coughed up blood.
Xiaobao hurried forward to support her. "Sister Little Bell, are you alright?"
The moment Little Bell saw Xiaobao, she felt a surge of anger in her heart. The fire in her chest exploded in Xiaobao's direction. She grabbed Xiaobao's ear, gritted her teeth, and scolded, "You bastard! Don't you dare pretend to be a good person here!
If you really have a heart, why don't you know what you should and shouldn't do? "
Xiaobao couldn't help but cry out, "Hey, let go of me, let go of me! Did I offend you?
Aiyoh, it hurts!
Let go! "
Little Bell gritted her teeth and used all her strength. "I'm going to hurt you stupid men!
You deserve it, all of you deserve to die! "
