Bai Shimu first saw Gu Jueye on news reports. He was from a prestigious family, exceptionally handsome and elegant. Her first impression of him? "A demon!"
The second time she met Gu ...
Bai Qianmo asked with displeasure, "Why weren't you told about this?"
"Fifth Master knows that you and Jiang Xiaoyu have always been very close, and he was afraid that she would be distracted by this, so he asked the entire G group to keep it from you."
"Fifth Brother knows Jiang Xiaoyu better than I do." There's definitely something fishy about this.
“I also think Jiang Xiaoyu isn’t that kind of person. Her ambition has always been to be a happy, laid-back person. However, according to some clues we’ve found, she met a man on vacation six months ago, and he has been pursuing her.”
man?
Jiang Xiaoyu usually disdains talking about love with men.
She once joked that she was female and that she liked women.
What kind of man could make Jiang Xiaoyu fall for him?
"Have you found out who this man is?"
Yin Ling nodded: "His name is Mo Chen. He is the next head of the Mo family and also Zhu Qinghan's half-brother."
Bai Qianmo frowned in thought. So he was a member of the Mo family. Did he approach Jiang Xiaoyu just to steal the Yin-Yang Jade Pendant?
The pair of yin-yang jade pendants are shaped like a pair of black and white leaves.
It is impossible to know exactly when it appeared, but the pair of jade pendants are currently in the hands of Fifth Brother.
It seems to be related to opening the tomb of the King of Qi.
Mo Chen's mother is the eldest daughter of the Yin family. Now, the Mo and Yin families have joined forces to find the whereabouts of the Qi King's Cauldron.
Therefore, it's easy to understand why Mo Chen approached Jiang Xiaoyu in order to obtain the Yin-Yang Jade Pendant.
But what methods did he use to make Jiang Xiaoyu willingly help him steal the jade pendant?
Based on her understanding of Jiang Xiaoyu, this girl was a very principled person at heart, and definitely not the kind of person who would be easily blinded by love.
"Yin Ling, tell me the truth, have you found Jiang Xiaoyu's whereabouts?"
Yinling hesitated for a moment: "Our people ultimately targeted the Southern Frontier; she must have gone to the Qi King's Tomb."
Bai Qianmo was shocked.
I haven't been able to get in touch with Fifth Brother lately, and even Jiang Xiaoyu has disappeared. It seems there's some connection between them.
Did Fifth Brother also go to Southern Xinjiang?
As she considered this possibility, Bai Qianmo's worries deepened.
The tomb of the King of Qi has a complex terrain, containing not only traps and hidden weapons, but also many unknown forces.
The last time, when Fifth Brother was still Gu Jueye, he was taken back to the warlord era a hundred years ago by some force. Now that he is going to that kind of place again, she is very worried that he will encounter some serious danger.
"Don't hide any news about Jiang Xiaoyu from me. You must tell me immediately."
The spirit nodded helplessly.
She disobeyed Fifth Master's orders for the sake of this junior sister.
However, who can blame him when this girl is the apple of Fifth Master's eye?

The night was deep, the bright moon hung in the sky, and a gentle breeze carried a hint of spring coolness.
After leaving the Yin Spirit's residence, Bai Qianmo deliberately wore a baseball cap and a mask to make sure no one recognized her, and then flagged down a car on the side of the road outside the apartment.
After giving the address of the Bai family's old residence, the driver started the car and began to drive forward.
Just then, that feeling of being followed returned.
Bai Qianmo was startled, but forced a calm expression on her face.
Looking out the car window, a fleeting shadow flashed past the car.
That thing was extremely fast, but Bai Qianmo's eyes were also extraordinary.
She finally saw clearly that it was actually a paper figure.
The moment she boarded the car, the paper figure slipped away from where she was.
The paper figure... is it really someone from the wizard clan who is following her?
