Xu Yuehuai now feels that A Dong might be around them, and perhaps all of this is related to A Dong.

Xu Yuehuai guessed that A Dong must have come to Wuling Kingdom with a purpose, perhaps to avenge his country.

He wanted to use the poison techniques in this book to poison the people of Wuling Kingdom and provoke a war between the Great Zhou Kingdom and Wuling Kingdom.

Xu Yuehuai was determined not to let Adong do this, so she wanted to find Adong and stop him.

Then Xu Yuehuai led Xia Sen and the others away from the dilapidated temple to search for A Dong's whereabouts.

Actually, when Ah Dong saw them searching around here, he thought they had found his trail.

He hurriedly left the temple, without even taking the secret manual with him.

Meanwhile, Ah Dong returned to the inn to rest.

He sensed that Xu Yuehuai and the others had left the dilapidated temple and thought he was safe, so he lowered his guard.

Xu Yuehuai and his group followed the footprints around them and found A Dong's location. They followed him all the way to the inn and were now hiding in a corner, spying on A Dong's every move.

“Look, that’s the person we’re looking for,” Xia Sen said to Xu Yuehuai, pointing at A Dong.

Upon closer inspection, Xu Yuehuai indeed discovered that the person was A Dong.

She was very excited; she had finally found Ah Dong.

I didn't expect Adong to still be alive, since he wants to provoke a war between the two countries.

They must capture Ah Dong before this happens, after all, Ah Dong's poison skills are so formidable that he almost killed all of them before.

Then Xu Yuehuai was about to lead Xia Sen and the others to rush out and capture A Dong, but at this moment, the Ghost Doctor stopped her.

"Don't be impulsive," the Ghost Doctor said to Xu Yuehuai and the others. "I know A Dong's purpose in coming to Wuling Kingdom. He wants to use poison to harm the people of Wuling Kingdom."

"Let's not alert them yet; let's wait a while before making any moves."

After listening to the Ghost Doctor's words, Xu Yuehuai calmed down and then asked him, "So what should we do now?"

"Let's not alert them yet. Let's wait a while before making any moves," the Ghost Doctor said to Xu Yuehuai and the others. "Let's go back and rest first."

With that, he led Xu Yuehuai and the others away from the inn and back to his room to rest.

Ah Dong felt a bit sleepy at that moment, so he went back to his room to rest.

Xu Yuehuai and his group did not rest for long, because they knew that A Dong was a very dangerous person. If he was not arrested and brought to justice in time, he might bring disaster to Wuling Kingdom.

Therefore, after discussing it with the Ghost Doctor, Xu Yuehuai decided to go to A Dong's room that very night to arrest him.

They found some black cloths to cover their faces, and after Xia Sen and another subordinate put on their masks, they went with them to A Dong's room.

They cautiously approached Adong's room and found that the door was not closed tightly, leaving a crack.

Xu Yuehuai gently pushed open the door and found the room completely dark, with no lights on.

She could hear Ah Dong's heavy breathing; he was clearly fast asleep.

Xu Yuehuai and the Ghost Doctor exchanged a glance, then quietly entered the room.

They groped their way forward, trying to avoid making a sound. Suddenly, Xu Yuehuai stepped on something hard. She bent down, picked it up, and saw that it was a metal sign.

A thought struck her: she remembered the iron box she had found in the dilapidated temple. Could this iron plaque be from the same box?

Just as Xu Yuehuai was pondering, A Dong suddenly sat up in bed and lit an oil lamp. He immediately saw the masked Xu Yuehuai and the Ghost Doctor, as well as Xia Sen and another subordinate behind them.

"Who are you?" Adong asked in surprise.

Xu Yuehuai didn't answer his question, but instead directly questioned him: "Adong, why are you hiding here? What is your purpose?"

Ah Dong paused for a moment, then sneered, "So you all knew my identity all along. But you've come at the right time; I was just about to look for you."

"What do you want to do?" Xu Yuehuai asked warily. "I want to see how much strength you so-called experts have to stop me from carrying out my plan."

Ah Dong arrogantly said, "And I'll show you that starting a war between two countries isn't so easy."

Xu Yuehuai's heart tightened. She knew that A Dong was a very dangerous person, and if he continued to stay in Wuling Kingdom, the consequences would be unimaginable. She decided to subdue him as soon as possible and stop his plans.

Therefore, Xu Yuehuai and the Ghost Doctor joined forces to launch an attack on A Dong.

Xia Sen and another of his men rushed forward to help.

A Dong dodged their attack with a swift movement, then swung a palm at Xu Yuehuai. Xu Yuehuai sidestepped, simultaneously throwing a punch at A Dong's chest.

A Dong dodged again, then slapped Xu Yuehuai in the back with his backhand. Xu Yuehuai only had time to let out a cry of surprise before being sent flying by A Dong.

She slammed heavily against the wall, spitting out a mouthful of blood. Xia Sen and another subordinate were horrified at the sight and rushed over to help Xu Yuehuai up. Meanwhile, A Dong seized the opportunity to escape the room and disappear into the night.

"Quick, after them!" Xu Yuehuai shouted as she stood up, clutching her chest.

She and Xia Sen and the others quickly gave chase. However, A Dong disappeared without a trace, moving through the night like a ghost.

After chasing him for a while, they realized they had lost track of him.

"Damn it! We can't let him get away like this!" Xu Yuehuai said angrily. "We must do everything we can to stop his plan!"

“But what should we do now?” Xia Sen asked. “We can’t even find any trace of him.”

Xu Yuehuai took a deep breath and said firmly, "We can't give up! We must continue searching for his trail! I believe that as long as we don't give up, we will definitely find him!"

Xia Sen and the others nodded in agreement. They knew Xu Yuehuai was right; giving up now would be tantamount to letting A Dong succeed.

So they decided to return to the inn to rest before continuing their search for A-Dong. They went back to their rooms and lay down on their beds, but couldn't fall asleep.

Xu Yuehuai tossed and turned, her heart filled with unease and anxiety. She knew that A Dong was an extremely dangerous person, and if he wasn't subdued in time, the Wuling Kingdom would face annihilation.

Meanwhile, the Ghost Doctor comforted Xu Yuehuai, telling her not to worry too much and that they would find Adong and subdue him as soon as possible.

Just then, there was a knock on the door. Xia Sen quickly got up to open it and found that it was the little princess.
