Mu Wanyun had blocked the information about Lu Li and tried not to let it spread out.
But when the news that Mu Yingying was being held hostage by Lu Li came back, inevitably, the news spread out at the Mount Mu God.
Who was Mu Yingying?
She was the Goddess of the Mu Family, the favorite descendant of the Patriarch of the Mu Family. She was one of the most powerful young ladies at the Rakshasa Sea. Her every move was watched by many.
The news that Mu Yingying was being held hostage was spread out at the north and so was the news.
The Patriarch of the Mu Family didn't tell him for fear that he would be disturbed. Instead, people from the Palace of Heaven and the Hell Palace knew.
"Lu Li betrayed us?
He is holding Mu Yingying and running to the north? "
When the 10 patriarchs from the Hell Palace heard the news, their eyes glowed. Lu Li was the shame of the entire Hell Palace. As long as he was alive, the Hell Palace would be shamed.
Some patriarchs of the Hell Palace even proposed to assassinate Lu Li but the idea was turned down by the Master. After all, they were here for a birthday celebration and they didn't want to upset the Patriarch of the Mu Family.
How could happiness come so suddenly?
Lu Li had betrayed them and the Palace of Rakshasa was after him. He was holding Mu Yingying and the Mu Family was after him as well. If so, it was perfectly justifiable for the Hell Palace to hunt him down.
The 10 patriarchs couldn't sit still anymore, not to mention Su Yueqin. For her, Lu Li was her nightmare.
Recently, she would wake up in the middle of the night and all she could think about was Lu Li's face. Every day, she wished she could tear Lu Li into pieces.
Su Yueqin communicated with a group of patriarchs at once and urged them to go after Lu Li. The patriarchs were tempted. In the end, Su Yueqin's third uncle, Su Tianchan, decided to go after Lu Li.
Of course, not everyone could go after Lu Li. Some had to stay behind to keep up appearances. Su Tianchan wanted Su Yueqin to stay, but she would not agree.
In the end, Su Tianchan left two patriarchs behind and left with seven patriarchs and Su Yueqin. He found Mu Wanshan, opened the space gate and flew to the Heaven's Eye Ridge.
It had been a long time. It was impossible to stop Lu Li in the Sea of Devils. They had to go to the Eye of Heaven Ridge.
The Celestial Eye Territory was very big. It was the territory of the Qi Clan, a super clan. So many experts going there was a provocation to the Qi Clan. If the Qi Clan thought that they had crossed the line, it might cause a huge battle.
However, Su Tianchan couldn't care less. The Mu Family's experts and the Rakshasa Palace's elders would probably head to the Heaven's Eye to claim it. At that time, he could negotiate with the Qi Family.
They were only going to capture someone, not to cause trouble in the Heaven's Eye Ridge.
Su Tianchan knew very well that if they could not take down Lu Li at the Heaven's Eye Region, they would never have another chance to do so. The God Boat was too fast. The outside was not their territory. Their movements would be limited. It was impossible for them to catch up with Lu Li.
The departure of Su Tianchan and his men did not escape the attention of those who were observant. After all, Su Tianchan was one of the most important guests.
The smile on Old Master Mu's face became a little awkward. After sitting for a while, he walked into the back hall. He waved his hand and a black shadow flashed out. The smile on his face froze as he asked in a deep voice, "Tell me."
The old man cupped his fists and said, "Family Patriarch, according to our information, that Holy Son of the Rakshasa Palace might have spent the night in Lady Ying Ying's room and then left for the Dragon Husbandry Island with her in the morning. Now, that Holy Son has taken Lady Ying Ying hostage and fled to the north … on the God Boat. The Master of the Rakshasa Palace has given the order to hunt down Lu Li. I want him dead or alive.
Wan Yun has sent someone to the Eye of Heaven Ridge to stop him. So have the Palace of Rakshasa. Just now, Su Tianchan opened the space gate and went to the Eye of Heaven Ridge … "
"Spent the night in Ying Ying's room?"
A glint of killing intent rose in the old man's eyes. Then he shook his head and said, "Ying Ying is not a person who doesn't have self-respect. She would not bring a man who was just outside back to her room. Something must have happened.
Did she leave any message? "
"Yes!"
The old man nodded and said, "She was a maid who sent the message. She said that she had to go out for a couple of days and asked us not to worry. She also said that she would come back and apologize to you."
"Eh?"
The old man squinted. He thought about it and waved his hand. "Go and find out about Ying Ying's departure and how she was taken hostage. Report back to me."
"Okay!"
The old man left. The old man of the Mu Family didn't go out either. He waited in the back hall. The banquet was ruined anyway. What was the point of forcing a smile outside?
Two hours later, the old man from before returned. He frowned and reported, "Patriarch, there's something strange going on."
"Tell me about it!"
The old man squinted his eyes. The old man explained, "First of all, Lady Ying Ying went to the Dragon Husbandry Island alone. The Teleportation Formation and people at the Dragon Husbandry Island have confirmed this.
Ying Ying went to the Dragon Husbandry Island and flew away by herself. Before she left the island, she let Lu Li out from her interspatial artifact. Lu Li took out the God Boat and flew away with Ying Ying.
But they were stopped on the way. They saw that Lady Ying Ying was not hurt and she didn't panic. Lu Li grabbed her with one hand and didn't seem to be disrespectful. More importantly … Lady Ying Ying said something. She asked them not to go after them and to back off. "
"Eh …"
The old man thought about it. After a while, he ordered, "Send a message to Wan Yun. They can go after them but don't do anything rashly. Just follow them from a distance.
I think … Ying Ying might have reached some agreement with that Lu Li. Maybe she wasn't really taken hostage. "
The old man asked with confusion, "Why do you think so, Family Patriarch?
Why would Lady Ying Ying risk her reputation? "
"It is because she won't risk her reputation. That's why I think she is working with Lu Li!"
The more the old man thought about it, the more he thought it was possible. He explained, "Ying Ying is a girl with self-respect. She won't bring Lu Li to her room easily. She won't let Lu Li spend the night in her room.
Today is my birthday. This kid must know the gravity of the situation. She won't be delayed by ordinary things.
Also, that Lu Li seems to have the Mysterious Heaven Talisman planted on him.
I think Ying Ying was helping him remove the Mysterious Heaven Talisman last night and then helped him to escape from the Rakshasa Sea.
Lu Li must have offered enough to make Ying Ying ruin her reputation. Don't panic. Maybe it is something good. Maybe Ying Ying will give us a surprise. "
Admittedly, the old man of the Mu Family was a shrewd old man. He could deduce what had happened based on some simple information and he was not far off the mark.
If Lu Li could hear this, he would admire Mu Yingying from the bottom of his heart. Mu Yingying didn't leave any clear hints.
"This kid is really good at making trouble."
