Chapter 80 She's Gone

The sky darkened rapidly, and dark clouds enveloped everyone like a huge net.

They followed the traces of medicinal powder left by Shen Yuning, walked a long way over mountains and rivers, and even reached the next city, but still did not reach their destination.

The team continued to move forward and finally arrived at Ailao Mountain, which was feared by everyone in Dayu.

This place is full of mountains and fog. Even the locals dare not set foot here easily, let alone these outsiders.

The soldiers dismounted, tied their horses at the foot of the mountain, and prepared to walk into the mountain - the mountain road was too steep and it was impossible to ride horses.

Without stopping for a moment, they ran towards the top of the mountain, following the direction indicated by the powder. However, as they walked, the traces of the powder suddenly disappeared.

The group suddenly became like headless flies, completely lost.

"What should we do? Doctor Shen must have run out of powder, which is why the signal was interrupted."

The soldiers all looked terrified: "If we delay for another three days, who knows how badly Doctor Shen will be tortured by the people from Black Wind Village!"

Thinking of how good Shen Yuning was to them on weekdays, the soldiers' hearts were in their throats.

While the soldiers of the Xuanjia Camp were still discussing countermeasures, Xiao Yihan's Canglong Guards had already taken action as ordered, splitting into several teams and rushing in different directions.

Xiao Yihan had no time to be sad, because he knew that if he paused for a moment, Yu Ning would be in more danger.

“Be sure to find Shen Yuning and bring her back safely!”

"Remember, life comes first in any situation!"

He had prepared for the worst, but no matter what, he would not give up on her.

After Xiao Yihan finished his instructions, he immediately jumped into the thick fog and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Pei Yanzhou's eyes were red, and he followed closely with a group of people.

He walked quickly, tears quickly blurring his vision, but he never stopped.

Who cares about parents’ orders or matchmaker’s words!

Who cares about saving my life or repaying my love for you?

Who cares whether Ning'er really pushed Pei Yan back then!

Nothing matters anymore!

As long as Shen Yuning can come out alive this time, he must tell her—he wants to marry her!

From now on, we will never be separated again, and I will never say a harsh word to her again.

Pei Yanzhou closed his eyes and tightly grasped the sachet she had embroidered for him in his sleeve.

It was not until this moment that he realized his true feelings - he loved Shen Yuning deeply.

Chu Mingzhao, the deputy general of Xuanjia Camp, trembled slightly in the hand holding the sword, and finally stopped hiding his strength.

His face was covered with frost as he led his subordinates to search in another direction.

Hatred burned in his eyes—hate for his father, hate for Chu Ruyan, and hate for Pei Yanzhou.

When he found Shen Yuning, he even wanted to take her away, leave the capital forever, and never care about the world again.

He owed her, and their entire Chu family owed her.

——

The sky darkened and then lightened, then lightened and then darkened again, and two days and two nights passed in a flash.

Everyone was dejected, their eyes red, and thousands of terrible possibilities flashed through their minds.

"Dr. Shen is such a good person, a god-like person, who has saved so many patients, how could he suffer such a disaster..."

"Isn't it that cowardly daughter?" a soldier said indignantly. "Why save someone so spineless as that? She's brought trouble upon our Doctor Shen. She deserves to be struck down by the thunder of heaven!"

"Hush, keep your voice down! Miss Chu must not die!" Another soldier said sarcastically, "If the person abducted by Black Wind Village was Chu Ruyan, our general would be so heartbroken."

They had already been angry and resentful, and now they were deliberately mocking Pei Yanzhou in front of him:

"Miss Chu is our general's fiancée and the apple of his eye. Otherwise, the general would not have betrayed her and abandoned Doctor Shen."

They deliberately spoke without reservation, letting Pei Yanzhou hear them intentionally or unintentionally.

His eyes were fierce, and he wished he could vent all his anger on him.

Pei Yanzhou remained silent. He blamed himself more than anyone else.

If it wasn't for helping herself, if he hadn't said harsh words to Shen Yuning in the tent, why would she repay her apology to Pei Yan in this way?

In two days and two nights, what was supposed to happen has probably already happened.

His Ning'er might have been...

Pei Yanzhou felt as if his heart was pierced by thousands of arrows, and the pain was unbearable.

Nothing matters now. He only cares about one thing - is Ning'er still alive?

As long as she is alive, he will marry her and be together for the rest of her life, just like he did when he lied to her.

"Ning'er, I will never put on airs again, and I won't say anything to anger you. Where are you?"

—

The soldiers took turns to rest, closing their eyes for a moment before continuing their search.

But none of the main generals closed their eyes.

Especially Xiao Yihan, he has unparalleled martial arts skills, and only he and Mo Yu can climb many dangerous peaks.

They would not leave until every place was thoroughly searched.

Although Yuning didn't bring enough medicine powder, she must have some spare on her - as long as there was a trace, she could follow the clues to find it.

But as the night deepened, I still had no clue.

Just when everyone was almost crying in despair, suddenly, flames shot up into the sky and thick smoke filled the mountain top!

The flames burned red and thick smoke billowed, as if they were about to set the entire sky on fire.

"It's her! It must have been Ning'er who set the fire!"

Xiao Yihan's pupils shrank sharply and he was the first to react.

He knew the Meishan School's style of doing things without having to guess.

But looking at the horrific sea of ​​fire, he couldn't imagine whether she had met with any misfortune.

"Puff——" He felt a fishy and sweet taste in his throat and spat out a mouthful of blood.

"Master, are you okay?" Mo Yu rushed up quickly.

"It's okay, let's go to the valley!" Xiao Yihan's eyes were red, and the sword energy on his body made him look like a demon from hell.

Pei Yanzhou staggered, his legs went weak, and he almost fell to the ground.

He swallowed the blood and rushed forward with a knife.

Perhaps, his Ning'er is no longer here...

Chu Mingzhao was the youngest. He was so excited that he felt dizzy and fainted.

After being woken up, he followed suit and burst into tears.

It’s gone, everything is gone, his Ning’er is gone.

——

When everyone arrived at the scene, they searched everywhere but couldn't find any trace of the person.

Suddenly, a huge stone wall appeared in front of them.

"The other side of the stone gate is a dead end, leading to a cliff. It can't be over there!"

They wanted to turn around and look for another place.

But at this moment, Xiao Yihan suddenly walked up and with a "bang" of his palm wind, he split the stone wall in half.

After the stone was split, everyone's eyes lit up. It turned out that this was not a dead end, nor did it lead to a cliff, but rather a cavernous world.

I guess the entrance to Black Wind Village is this stone wall.

No wonder Dayu’s soldiers couldn’t find the Black Wind Village’s nest after searching for many years. It turned out to be hidden in such a secluded place.

Xiao Yihan rushed in first, followed by Mo Yu and his Canglong Guard.

Pei Yanzhou and Chu Mingzhao followed closely behind. It was not that they didn't want to move forward, but their speed was not as fast as Xiao Yihan.

Logically speaking, in this situation, Xiao Yihan, as the current crown prince, should not be the first to rush in.

But he really couldn't wait any longer. He was extremely anxious and had never been so panicked.

If I have the chance to see her again, I will definitely not endure it this time.

She doesn't know that I have liked her for many years...
