Seeing the innkeeper's calm and composed look, Luo Lingyue became even angrier. She suddenly reached out and snatched the sword from Luo Lingzhang's hand. With a flick of her wrist, the sword gleamed and the innkeeper's left ear was cut off by her sword!

The innkeeper let out a heartbreaking scream that echoed throughout the inn. Luo Lingyue's sword shifted smoothly, stopping at his right ear. The tip of the sword flashed with a cold light, sending a chill through the innkeeper.

"Shut up!" Luo Lingyue stared at the innkeeper with cold eyes and said sternly, "Answer my questions honestly if you don't want to die! Otherwise, I will cut off your ears, nose, and every piece of flesh on your body, one by one!"

The innkeeper covered his bleeding left ear and looked at Luo Lingyue in horror, begging for mercy in a trembling voice, "Lady, please spare my life! I really don't know who they are! They just gave me some silver and told me to hang a red lantern outside the inn as long as a girl stayed there! I really don't know anything else! Please, lady, spare my life!"

Luo Lingyue snorted coldly, turned around and ordered the guards behind him, "Tie this guy up and gag him! Leave two people here to guard him! The rest of you, come with me to find him!"

However, at this moment, Luo Lingfeng suddenly reached out and grabbed her. "Xiao Qi, Jing Han and I will go, you stay in the inn." Luo Lingfeng looked at Luo Lingyue seriously, his eyes full of concern.

Luo Lingyue thought that if she followed Luo Lingfeng and Xiao Jinghan together, some things might become difficult to handle. Therefore, she accepted Luo Lingfeng's arrangement: "Sixth Brother! You must be extra careful!"

Luo Lingfeng bit his lip and said, "Don't worry! I will definitely bring those two maids back safely! Or Jinghan, you should stay at the inn with Xiaoqi. If anything unexpected happens to you, I won't be able to explain to His Majesty!"

Xiao Jinghan smiled slightly and responded firmly, "Sixth Brother! You lead the guards to search, and I can lead His Majesty's secret guards to search. This way, the chances of success will be greatly increased! Besides, with the secret guards protecting me, I'm sure nothing will happen to me."

Luo Lingfeng pondered for a moment and felt that what Xiao Jinghan said made perfect sense. After all, His Majesty's secret guards would only obey Xiao Jinghan's orders, which would definitely increase their chances of finding the person!

Then, he patted Xiao Jinghan's shoulder vigorously and warned: "Be careful in everything you do!"

After the two groups left the inn, Luo Lingyue returned to her room. She quickly used her disguise technique to transform herself into the mysterious and cold Dark Moon Fairy. She picked up the bright red umbrella, her face filled with murderous intent.

Who dared to touch the one she cared about? Didn't they want to kill themselves? Dark Moon Fairy glided gracefully onto the rooftop and stood there quietly, like a ghost in the night. She gently blew on her flute, producing a clear and melodious sound. Not long after, a small snake and bird, leading Mu San and the Sword Spirit, arrived beside her, shadow by shadow.

Mu San asked respectfully, "Pavilion Master, is there something urgent that has summoned me?" Dark Moon Fairy raised her brows slightly and questioned sternly, "We were paid to ensure Luo Lingyue's safety! But now her maid has disappeared. How did you do it?"

Mu San glanced at Jian Hun with some trepidation and explained, "Pavilion Master, before we left, you told us not to follow too closely, and our people didn't detect any trace of assassins or assassins... This is truly puzzling."

Dark Moon Fairy couldn't help but rub her forehead. She had indeed asked Mu San and Sword Spirit to keep a certain distance from her, but she never expected something like this to happen. She said in a deep voice, "Gather everyone immediately! Find Luo Lingyue's two maids at all costs! Nothing can happen to them!"

After receiving the order, the two did not dare to delay for a moment and immediately led their men to search for Linglong and Liuli's whereabouts.

Time ticked by, but no clues were found. The entire town of Luoxia seemed to have been turned upside down, and every corner was meticulously searched, but their whereabouts were still unsuccessful.

The secret guards followed Xiao Jinghan closely, not daring to relax for a moment. However, at the corner of a narrow alley, Xiao Jinghan suddenly disappeared without a trace.

The head of the secret guards' face instantly turned pale as paper, his hands and feet were ice-cold, and his heart was filled with fear. If anything happened to Prince Xiao, the lives of all of them would be in jeopardy!

He stared wide-eyed and looked around, trying to find some clues. However, this alley looked ordinary, nothing out of the ordinary. Beads of sweat appeared on the forehead of the secret guard. He knew that he had a heavy responsibility. If he couldn't find Xiao Jinghan quickly, the consequences would be disastrous.

He took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down. He ordered the other secret guards to disperse and continue searching nearby, and urged them to remain vigilant and not miss any details.

Meanwhile, the head of the secret guards decided to personally investigate the last place Xiao Jinghan had been seen before his disappearance. He carefully observed the alleyway, hoping to find some useful clues. He examined every stone, every inch of wall, and even the dust on the ground.

During the intense search, time passed exceptionally slowly. The Dark Guard Chief's mood grew increasingly heavy. He knew he had to find Xiao Jinghan as soon as possible, otherwise everything would be in jeopardy...

Dark Moon Fairy stood quietly atop the tallest tower in Luoxia Town. Her sharp, deep eyes slowly scanned the surroundings, and a wave of confusion welled up in her heart: Why was there no trace of the missing girls in the entire town? Her brow furrowed, lost in thought.

If she were the robber, where would she choose to hide these poor girls? She pondered this question, her gaze gradually settling on the distant Luoxia River. The endless Luoxia Mountains seemed to her the most ideal hiding place.

Without hesitation, Dark Moon Fairy flew towards Luoxia Mountain. When she reached the foot of the mountain, she gently fumbled for the piccolo hanging from her waist, brought it to her lips, and played a series of sharp and piercing notes.

In a moment, a slight rustling sound came from the mountain, as if something was approaching.

A moment later, a swarm of snakes and rats appeared around her. Darkmoon Enchantress didn't stop playing her flute, but continued to guide them with the melodious music. As if driven by some mysterious force, the snakes and rats rushed towards the mountain.

As the snakes and rats departed, Dark Moon Fairy gradually vanished from the forest. She firmly believed that with the animals' keen sense of smell and perception, she would be able to find the whereabouts of the missing girls. No matter what challenges and difficulties lay ahead, she was determined to uncover the truth behind this bizarre disappearance...
