Hua Rujin shook her aching arms and quickly helped Nangong Ziyan untie the ropes.
"Yan'er, what do we do now?" Hua Rujin was at a loss again, placing all her hopes on Nangong Ziyan. If she were alone, she would definitely be at a loss.
"Let's go find something to eat first." Nangong Ziyan wasn't in a hurry; they needed to eat their fill to have the energy to think of a solution.
"Huh?" Hua Rujin looked at her in surprise. "Ziyan, can you still eat at a time like this?"
"Do you think you'll have the strength to run away on an empty stomach?" How could Nangong Ziyan not be anxious? She didn't even know what time it was. Haotian would definitely be anxious to find her and wouldn't return to the Netherworld Continent. She had to save herself now. Her calmness was simply to lure out the people hiding in the shadows. Making a fuss would only make the people who had captured them laugh at them.
"I...we're heading this way." Nangong Ziyan looked towards the woods. There were wild fruits in her spatial ring, which would satisfy her hunger, but more importantly, she needed to find a way to escape.
"Oh!" Hua Rujin followed closely behind Nangong Ziyan's footsteps, and the two quickly walked into the depths of the woods.
Are you sure you can let them stay inside until tomorrow night?
Inside the Yuxing Inn, in Baili Yuechan's room, the masked woman, still dressed in red, coldly looked at Baili Yuechan and asked a question.
"Of course, this is my spatial ring. No matter how powerful Nangong Ziyan is, she can't escape. It's almost noon now. If we can just wait a few more hours, our plan will succeed."
Baili Yuechan smiled sweetly. For a whole day and night, Beiming Haotian had been frantically searching for Nangong Ziyan, driving her to the brink of madness with jealousy. Even Baili Jun'ao, who usually didn't meddle in other people's business, was frantically searching for Nangong Ziyan. What connection did he have with her? Thinking of Baili Jun'ao appearing in the woods that night, would he really go for a walk in such a place late at night...?
"Hmph! I'm risking my life to help you, so you'd better be confident you can succeed, or I'll show you just how terrible the consequences can be."
The woman in red, her face masked, spoke sharply, her entire being radiating malevolence.
Baili Yuechan's eyes widened in surprise; this woman's heart was indeed ruthless.
"Didn't I say? It's already past noon. As soon as it gets dark, I'll leave Nangong Ziyan on another small island. If only Nangong Ziyan and Beiming Haotian are there, do you think Nangong Ziyan will still be alive?"
Baili Yuechan looked at the woman in red with a displeased tone; she hated being threatened the most.
"Someone's coming, I'm leaving now." Hearing footsteps outside, the woman in red quickly slipped out of the window.
Dongfang Yifei suddenly pushed open the door and looked at Baili Yuechan with a gloomy face.
"Tell me, did you capture Yan'er? Bei Ming Haotian and Hua Nongying have turned the entire island upside down, but they still haven't found Nangong Ziyan. This means that someone has hidden her, and the only person I can think of is you."
Without wasting words, Dongfang Yifei asked directly.
Baili Yuechan glanced at Dongfang Yifei. Was he really that worried about Nangong Ziyan? He loved Nangong Ziyan, yet he ravaged her every night. Did a man like him deserve to talk about love? Baili Yuechan was filled with hatred. So what if she had captured Nangong Ziyan? Dongfang Yifei had no evidence and couldn't do anything to her.
"Is Young Master Dongfang joking? I stay here every day, afraid to go out, lest the poison take effect and ruin my life. Besides, when Nangong Ziyan had her accident, weren't you still making love with me?"
Baili Yuechan said angrily that after she returned from the port, she was changing her clothes when she was caught by Dongfang Yifei, who had just barged in. This damned devil was acting like a beast again, and he was using her as a tool to vent his anger.
