"Yu'er..."

Seeing Jun Yu's attitude, Zhou Yumei couldn't help but panic. She didn't understand why things had turned out this way when she just wanted to take back what belonged to her.

Is it wrong for someone to strive for the best?

It was clearly Shen Zhengyun who interfered back then, which led to her ending up in this situation!

She was not willing to accept this; she wanted it back!

She is determined to take back everything that belongs to her!

Shen Zhengyun, Junran!

Everything she has now is thanks to them. As long as they are around, she will never have a chance to rise above them!

As long as Jun Ran disappears, Jun Yu will be the only genius in the family.

Jun Yunping's position as head of the family will then be preserved.

And she will become the true matriarch.

When that time comes, Jun Ximeng will become the legitimate daughter, and the position of Crown Princess will undoubtedly belong to her!

Zhou Yumei clenched her fists tightly, a chilling glint flashing in her lowered eyes.

Once Shen dies, Junran will inevitably break completely with the Jun family, and then all her plans will become reality.

Therefore, the Shen family must die!

After thinking it over, Zhou Yumei sent her trusted maid out to the assassin alliance to issue an assassination mission.

Shen's current cultivation level is at the peak of the ninth level of the Profound Realm, which corresponds to the Golden Spear level assassin. However, in order to ensure that nothing goes wrong, she chose the Ice Diamond level assassin.

A commission of 100,000 gold coins is a huge investment.

Jun Feijue and the others were unaware of Zhou Yumei's actions. They had already successfully reunited with the Mercenary Guild members and were on their way to Corpse City.

The Western Xu Kingdom is tens of thousands of miles away from the Azure Profound Kingdom. In order to arrive within the stipulated time, the group did not take a carriage, but instead rode a low-level magical beast called Benxiao.

The Benxiao resembles a horse in appearance, but its physical strength and speed far exceed those of ordinary horses. It can run swiftly like the wind, covering 500 li a day, and can run for more than ten days without feeling tired.

Ji Fanya and Jun Feijue were still young, and it was not safe for them to ride high-speed mounts on their own. Although Jun Ran really wanted to ride with his sister, he ultimately succumbed to Di Moyu's power.

If you can't beat them, you have to admit defeat. What else can you do?

The group rode the Benxiao day and night, and arrived at the Western Xu Kingdom in half a month.

Because the mercenary group was on a mission personally issued by their lord, they had temporary identity tokens, so entering the city was very smooth. After half a day, they arrived at a place a hundred miles away from Corpse-Hound Mountain without any hindrance.

However, instead of continuing on their way, the group changed course and headed to a nearby manor.

Why did you stop?

Seeing that the mercenary guild members had stopped traveling, Junran asked in confusion, "It's still early, we can continue on our way."

"We need to continue our journey, but before that, we need to find a travel guide."

Ma Shixin jumped off Benxiao's back. "The location of Corpse City is hidden. Only special guide beasts can find the entrance. Although those bloodthirsty corpses may have already escaped, our main goal is still to enter the city."

"I see."

Upon hearing this, everyone nodded in understanding.

Over there, Di Moyu glanced at Jun Feijue, who was nestled in his arms, fast asleep with rosy cheeks.

His expression softened, and he gently pulled her into his arms. With a swift movement, he jumped off Benxiao's back.

"Hmm, we've arrived?"

However, as soon as she landed, although Di Moyu did not disturb Jun Feijue, she woke up on her own.

Her chubby little hands rubbed her eyes, her pink lips were slightly pouting, and she looked sleepy.
