Ye Shuang was getting annoyed by his persistence, so she raised a finger to signal him to shut up: "First of all, when I left this morning, there was no trace of this monster in the county, which means it came after I left. And this missing person has probably been missing for more than a day or two, so the idea that the monster ate him is pure nonsense."

"Secondly, Ma Rencai's attitude towards him is intimate and he trusts him completely. This is not a relationship that can be established in just half a day. It means that they already know each other. Now it is just a reunion. Since they are old acquaintances, it is even less likely that anything will happen."

"third……"

At this point, Ye Shuang stopped and looked at Yuwen Leng.

Yuwen Leng asked, puzzled, "I wonder who this third one is?"

Ye Shuang looked at him and said seriously, "Before you speak to me, think it through in your mind. I am more worried about Ma Rencai's safety than you. Don't question my decision. Since I dared to come out, I have naturally made arrangements."

"Yes." Yuwen Leng clasped his hands in a salute. A cold sweat instantly appeared on his forehead and was dried by the wind. He had been careless and had momentarily forgotten that the person in front of him was not someone to be treated casually.

Before they knew it, the two had returned to the inn.

The yamen below the window had become completely silent; even the flickering lights had disappeared, indicating that Ma Rencai was no longer there.

Yuwen Leng asked cautiously, "Miss, I know his address. Can I go to his house to protect him?"

"Can you defeat that monster?" Ye Shuang sighed slightly. Why did this person like to do things that were completely useless and easily angered others? "If you can't beat it, just stay put. The people I called will be here soon. Then you can discuss what to do together. Ma Rencai is very tough. Nothing will happen to him in one night."

Yuwen Leng could only nod in agreement. After all, as Ye Shuang had said, he couldn't defeat that monster. Even if he went there, he wouldn't be able to stop it from eating Ma Rencai. Moreover, he would probably have to be a substitute and left to fill the gaps between its teeth.

"Immortal, I have arrived."

A familiar voice suddenly came from the window.

Ye Shuang looked over and, sure enough, it was Bi Yu. She was a little surprised: "How did you get here so quickly? I thought you wouldn't arrive until tomorrow or the day after."

Bi Yu didn't mention that he had been traveling day and night since receiving Ye Shuang's message, and that eight horses had died along the way, all to conserve his spiritual energy so he could help Ye Shuang: "She just happens to be nearby."

Ye Shuang nodded, not really caring whether he was telling the truth or not: "Come in first. Something's happened in this county again. How are your masters doing?"

Bi Yu skillfully climbed in through the window and stood right next to Ye Shuang: "The masters are all well. The Taoist temple in the suburbs is almost finished. We'll need your presence then. Has anything happened in the county?"

Ye Shuang pointed to Yuwen Leng beside her and said, "Let him tell you the details later. How's the matter I asked you to handle going?"

Bi Yu nodded hurriedly and said, "It has been done. Moreover, the person in the capital sent word that the situation in the capital is dire. He is afraid he will not be able to hold on for long. The great edifice is about to collapse. Please make preparations, Immortal."

Ye Shuang nodded casually: "Then you go with him. The two of you can discuss how to solve the problem and tell me a way that can be perfectly executed tomorrow."

Bi Yu glanced back at Yuwen Leng, nodded slightly, and then turned to leave.
