Chapter 429 What is supposed to come will always come
With a swift movement, Hu Xing let out a bloodcurdling scream as Su Fengling gouged out her eyes and carelessly tossed them to the ground.
"Ah...ah...Su Fengling! I curse you to die a horrible death, to be unloved, and to meet a tragic end!"
Su Fengling can accept anything else, but he cannot accept being unloved!
He squatted down in front of Hu Xing and pinched her chin with his hand.
Then I felt waves of nausea churning inside me, as if I had touched something very dirty.
Don't you think you're being incredibly noisy?
"A tongue is a wonderful thing, but you don't deserve to have one!"
The sharpened bone spur pierced her tongue through as well, and in an instant, only the sound of "whooshing" could be heard in the empty space.
Su Fengling wiped her hands with a handkerchief, somewhat disgusted.
He casually tossed the handkerchief at Hu Xing's face: "Alright, now the world is quiet."
He closed his eyes, sensing if there were any familiar presences around him, mainly to see if Zhongli Yueluo was there.
Zhongli Yueluo opened her eyes. She was surrounded by a dense forest, and it was almost night.
He glanced at his side; Yan Ruoyu was also beside him.
It's incredibly fortunate, but he doesn't seem to have woken up yet.
Moreover, he noticed that something in his arms seemed to be glowing. Zhongli Yueluo, disregarding etiquette, directly opened her clothes and took out half a jade pendant.
The jade pendant and her jade pendant were similar in style, but they were definitely not a pair.
Looking back now, his mother's surname was Yue. Could it be that his mother was also a member of the Blood Demon Clan?
But why doesn't his blood have any special attraction to ghosts, or perhaps he hides himself very well?
The jade pendant gleamed and swayed, as if guiding them on their way.
This jungle is very deep and looks like it's inside some kind of barrier.
He gently shook Yan Ruoyu's shoulder, but she didn't react. He then slapped his face with his hand.
"Ruoyu? Ruoyu?"
After being called twice, Yan Ruoyu's eyes darted around, her eyelashes trembled slightly, and she opened her eyes.
Seeing that Zhongli Yueluo seemed to be unharmed, he breathed a long sigh of relief and sat up, rubbing his head.
"Princess, where is this?"
Then she realized that her question was a bit illogical. How could Zhongli Yueluo know that?
He stood up and looked around, his gaze finally settling on Zhongli Yueluo and the jade pendant in her hand.
This jade pendant was indeed the one he had worn since childhood, and he never showed it to outsiders.
His mother said that the jade pendant should not be shown to outsiders.
Although Zhongli Yueluo is not an outsider, they have been busy with important matters.
There's simply no time to talk about these trivial matters.
"Ruoyu, this jade pendant was glowing while you were unconscious. Could it be guiding you?"
"This……"
Finally, he carefully examined the jade pendant and realized that it was stained with Zhongli Yueluo's blood, which was probably what activated it.
"Princess, does the Blood Demon Clan have the Yuezhi?"
"It should be so." Zhongli Yueluo wasn't entirely certain.
Yan Ruoyu already had a plan in mind: "Princess, let's follow this jade pendant first."
"it is good."
I had no idea where I was, but I still had to leave as soon as possible.
We need to find at least an open space; in this dark jungle, who knows what dangers might lurk in the shadows.
Many eyes were watching them from the shadows, but no one came closer.
Yan Ruoyu walked in front, holding Zhong Liyueluo's hand the whole time, protecting her on her inner side.
Perhaps it was because the sky was gradually darkening and the road ahead was becoming obscured.
Zhongli Yueluo had lost too much blood and had not yet recovered when she stepped on a pebble.
With a cry of "Ah!", she fell into Yan Ruoyu's arms.
Yan Ruoyu hugged Zhong Liyueluo, trying to steady herself, but little did she know that there was a slope behind her.
The two of them fell down and rolled down the slope.
Yan Ruoyu had one arm around Zhongli Yueluo's waist and the other hand protecting her head.
I was afraid she would get scratched by the branches.
His outer robe was torn with holes everywhere, his face was scratched, and his hands were covered with tiny cuts.
Zhongli Yueluo was perfectly unharmed, protected in his arms.
They finally rolled to a gentle slope, and the two of them managed to sit up.
But by sheer chance, he rolled out of the deep jungle and onto a clearing.
Looking further into the distance from this open space, there is still a relatively large slope.
Moreover, there was a very obvious fluctuation of magical power.
There are scattered lights in the distance; there must be a village there.
"Princess, is something the matter?"
Yan Ruoyu asked her with a worried smile.
Zhongli Yueluo shook her head: "It's nothing. Did you get scratched?"
"Princess, there's no need to worry. This minor injury is nothing to worry about."
Yan Ruoyu helped Zhongli Yueluo stand up so she could see more clearly that Zhongli Yueluo was standing on tiptoe.
"There's actually a village deep in these mountains?"
"Perhaps we can stay there, but we don't know if we're friend or foe."
Yan Ruoyu still held Zhongli Yueluo's shoulder, afraid that she might accidentally fall down again.
They moved quickly towards the source of the powerful magical energy fluctuations.
But I had injuries and was afraid of hurting myself, so I couldn't go that fast.
"This magical energy fluctuation feels the same as the fluctuation of the outer barrier of the North Demon Mountain."
"Does the princess mean that it's very likely the barrier outside was set up by the people here?"
She blinked, her mind filled with doubt.
They didn't speak a word along the way, but simply touched the branches, grass, and rocks until they arrived at the barrier.
The appearance of the village gradually magnified in their eyes.
They were so close, yet separated by a transparent barrier that they couldn't open.
No one has approached this village for a long time, not even the Nguyen clan has ever come here.
Several households living at the edge of the village felt that outsiders were intruding.
The village bell, which hadn't rung for a long time, suddenly rang, and the scattered lights instantly became bright.
An old man with gray hair suddenly opened his eyes and tapped his cane twice on the ground.
"How could this place have been discovered by outsiders? Are you sure that's the aura of an outsider, and not that of the Ruan family?"
"The village chief definitely exudes two unfamiliar auras!"
A villager answered the white-haired old man from below, standing up shakily.
"So this day has finally come?"
Everyone knows what this means: the Yuezhi, by remaining hidden from the world, will eventually be targeted by outsiders.
"Let's go take a look, and call Yuwan over too."
Although he walked with a swaying gait, his eyes exuded authority, and no one dared to defy him.
Yue Yuwan also sensed an unfamiliar aura, but within that unfamiliarity lay a trace of familiarity.
It was the jade pendant her sister gave her when she left; it was the scent of that jade pendant!
Over the years, she has missed her sister every moment and regretted what she did back then.
