"What happened?" Nan Wusi asked quietly as he approached the door.
"Sister Nan, it seems like someone from the Prime Minister's residence has arrived," Hu Zi said as he ran over.
Upon hearing that it was someone from the Prime Minister's residence, Nan Wusi instantly understood the situation. It seemed to be a scheme orchestrated by Ouyang Jiangli: first, to have Ouyang Xinxi kidnapped, and then, under the pretext of not being able to find her, to send people from the Prime Minister's residence out to search for her. Many people would then find Ouyang Xinxi being violated or already violated in the dilapidated City God Temple, thus ruining not only her reputation but also her entire life.
It's truly terrifying. How could there be such a vicious woman who shows absolutely no affection for her own family, not even her own sister?
Nan Wusi thought to herself, "This matter must not be discovered by the people of the Prime Minister's residence, otherwise I don't know how Prime Minister Ouyang will deal with Ouyang Xinxi."
"Tiger, go tell my brother to do whatever it takes to hold off the people from the Prime Minister's residence for a moment. I will leave from the back with Miss Ouyang," Nan Wusi instructed.
"Okay, Sister Nan." Upon hearing this, Hu Zi immediately ran forward to relay the message.
Nan Wusi went straight behind the statue, and pulled Ouyang Xinxi, who had just changed her clothes, towards the back.
Although the City God Temple was dilapidated, the walls were still generally in good condition, so there was actually no other way out except through the main gate. However, if one left through the main gate, the people from the Prime Minister's residence would definitely see it, making it even more difficult to salvage one's reputation. So Nan Wusi chose a slightly damaged section of the wall and punched it.
"Boom." Because the wall had been in disrepair for many years, and Nan Wusi had used all his strength, a large hole was quickly broken through it.
The people from the Prime Minister's residence were asking Prince Yi why he was preventing them from going in to search for someone, while Xiao Yi made an excuse that he was on business there.
The loud noise was heard by everyone in front, and everyone's attention was focused on the City God Temple.
"What is that sound?" someone asked.
“Your Highness, I am truly worried about my daughter’s safety. Please allow us to go and see her.” Ouyang Yan couldn’t understand why Xiao Yi would stop him.
Xiao Yi and Nan Wufeng exchanged a glance, realizing that the commotion must have been caused by Nan Wusi. They assumed the two had left safely, so they didn't stop them.
Xiao Yi snorted inwardly, thinking that Prime Minister Ouyang was probably getting senile.
Without being stopped, a large group of people from the Prime Minister's residence rushed into the City God Temple. They only saw bloodstains on the ground, but no one. Behind the City God Temple was a large hole as tall as a person.
Ouyang Jiangli felt a chill run down his spine. It seemed that his plan had failed again. He hadn't expected Ouyang Xinxi to be so lucky.
“Your Highness Prince Yi, this…” Ouyang Yan shamelessly approached Xiao Yi, eager to find out what was going on.
"Prime Minister Ouyang, you don't think I've hidden your daughter away, do you?" Xiao Yi said coldly.
"This old minister dares not, please enlighten me, Your Highness." Ouyang Yan was terrified when he suddenly received news at home that his eldest daughter had been kidnapped by bandits. He immediately sent people out to search for her. Then, he learned by chance that someone had seen someone who looked like his daughter being kidnapped and brought to the City God Temple. That's why he sent a large group of people to rush over.
Unexpectedly, when they arrived at the City God Temple, they found no trace of their daughter. Instead, they saw Xiao Yi's guards surrounding the temple, and even the eldest son of the General's Mansion was there.
"I haven't seen your daughter yet, Prime Minister, you should look for her elsewhere," Xiao Yi said casually. "I'm just dealing with a few ignorant fools here, so there's no need for Prime Minister Ouyang to bother."
Seeing that he hadn't found anyone and couldn't get any information from Xiao Yi, Ouyang Yan left dejectedly with his men.
In order to get back to the capital as quickly as possible, Nan Wusi picked up Ouyang Xinxi and used his lightness skill to run at top speed.
"Sisi, you're amazing!" Ouyang Xinxi exclaimed in surprise. She had never had such an experience before. As she watched the scenery rushing past on both sides, she felt as if she had temporarily forgotten her other troubles.
"Hehe, I think I'm pretty awesome too." Nan Wusi also enjoyed the feeling of running. She had never had this opportunity before, as she was always in the capital. Now she felt like a hero in a martial arts novel, which made her extremely happy.
"However, Sisi, what happened outside just now? Why did you rush me back?" Ouyang Xinxi was changing clothes and didn't know that people from the Prime Minister's residence had come outside. Nan Wusi didn't explain to her and just pulled her away.
"..." Nan Wusi remained silent for a long time before saying, "Someone from the Prime Minister's residence just arrived."
Ouyang Xinxi's eyes widened upon hearing this. She wasn't stupid, and she naturally understood from Nan Wusi's attitude and words that her current predicament was orchestrated by someone. That person must be the two from the Prime Minister's residence, because no one else hated her so much.
“I understand.” Ouyang Xinxi’s tone turned serious.
"So, you want to take revenge yourself?" Nan Wusi asked again.
"Yes." Ouyang Xinxi nodded heavily.
"If you need my help with anything, just tell me," Nan Wusi said calmly, his eyes fixed ahead.
"Yes, I will." Ouyang Xinxi's eyes welled up with tears again, and her voice choked with emotion. She was very grateful to have met such a good friend as Nan Wusi.
"When you return to the Prime Minister's residence, do you know how to handle things?" Nan Wusi asked worriedly. Ouyang Xinxi was simple-minded, and she was afraid that she wouldn't be able to cope.
