Mo Yunhan was turned away at the door and almost broke his nose.
Song Yushu happened to come over and couldn't help but laugh when he saw this scene.
"This is the first time I've seen Qingwan throw such a tantrum. What did you do to upset her?"
Mo Yunhan awkwardly touched his nose.
It's not easy to explain too much.
"Aunt, is something wrong with you coming over so late?"
Song Yushu rolled her eyes at him.
"You have the nerve to ask me? You're about to get married, and you still haven't gone to get your clothes taken."
Mo Yunhan had no such intention.
"Aunt, you've gone to so much trouble. You always prepare my clothes, so there's no need to take my measurements again."
Song Yushu wanted to say something more,
Just then, Ye Qi hurriedly walked in.
Mo Yunhan immediately said, "Aunt, I have other matters to attend to. You can make the arrangements for the wedding details."
He then gestured for Ye Qi to leave with him.
They waited until they reached a secluded spot before asking the question.
"How's the investigation going?"
Night Seven whispers,
"Your Highness, that General Xiao has already led his remaining troops toward the former site of the Sui Dynasty. He is acting discreetly, so he is probably withdrawing. I have arranged for someone to follow him secretly, and we will send word back immediately if there is any unusual activity."
"As for the Zhuge Clan... there is currently no trace of them, and we are still investigating."
Mo Yunhan nodded.
"Any news must be reported immediately, no matter the time."
"yes!"
Ye Qi asked curiously, "Does Your Highness also think that the disciples of Zhuge are in cahoots with the rebels of the Great Sui? Why didn't they evacuate with us? Could they be planning something else?"
Mo Yunhan waved his hand.
That topic was not pursued further.
"Go fetch the horse, and come with me to a place."
Before curfew, two fast horses galloped out of the capital and headed west.
The branches of the Free and Unfettered Sword Sect are scattered throughout various regions.
The places where the ancestral halls were built were all in auspicious feng shui.
The closest branch to the capital is in Yishui Town, which takes three hours even by fast horse.
By the time Mo Yunhan and Ye Qi arrived, it was already past midnight.
The night was pitch black, and the moonlight was unusually faint.
The two changed into night clothes and each put on a mask.
"Time is of the essence. After entering the sect, you and I will split up and search in the east and west directions to find the location of the leader. Once found, use whatever means necessary to extract as much information as possible about the Sword Tomb within the headquarters of the Free and Unfettered Sword Sect. If we encounter danger, we will send a message with fireworks. In one hour, regardless of the outcome, we shall meet here."
On the way here, Mo Yunhan had already told him that he needed to obtain the Seven-Colored Phoenix Grass from the Free and Unfettered Sword Sect.
Although he didn't explain what the purpose was, seeing how anxious he was, Ye Qi knew it was an extremely important matter.
He nodded immediately.
"Understood."
The two disappeared into the night like phantoms in the darkness.
The branch in Yishui Town doesn't occupy a very large area.
However, with mountains behind it and the advantage of its terrain, it's not so easy to find people.
Moreover, there is a clear distinction between officialdom and the martial arts world.
If someone from the martial arts world commits a crime, it is understandable for the imperial court to intervene. However, if someone from the imperial court recklessly breaks the rules of the martial arts world, it will certainly cause a great uproar.
Because this matter cannot be made a big deal out of, it can only be done secretly.
Mo Yunhan was extremely fast.
In the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, they had roughly figured out the layout of the houses within the sect.
We are currently heading northeast.
As soon as I entered the courtyard, I heard a muffled thud coming from the main hall and bedroom.
He immediately became alert.
He thought his whereabouts had been discovered.
But the next moment, a figure was reflected in the window of the room.
I don't know who they're fighting with.
The battle was fierce.
Could it be that Ye Qi also sneaked in?
Mo Yunhan was quite surprised by his speed and immediately rushed in.
A heavy object slammed down at his feet, making a dull groan.
He was a middle-aged man with a mustache, wearing only an undershirt. As he fell, a small, round token fell from his neck.
That was the symbol of identity for each branch leader of the Free and Unfettered Sword Sect.
We found the right person.
Just as Mo Yunhan was about to lift the man up for interrogation, a hand suddenly emerged from a cloud of black mist, grabbed the leader's arm, and tried to drag him into the mist.
Mo Yunhan then realized.
Night Seven wasn't in the room.
He reacted quickly and grabbed the helmsman's other arm.
His inner force erupted and flowed into the main body of the rudder, intending to throw the person in the black mist away.
Unexpectedly, the man was determined to win, and countless black and gold talismans rapidly spread out.
It actually blocked Mo Yunhan's powerful internal force attack.
"You are from the Xuanmen sect!"
Mo Yunhan was startled.
The voice beneath the mask was muffled and deep.
It's completely different from usual.
The helmsman was currently suffering excruciating pain from the two opposing forces.
He was about to roll his eyes.
Mo Yunhan abruptly released his internal force, and those within the black mist clearly hadn't expected him to suddenly withdraw his power.
He didn't control the power of the black and gold talisman properly, and his entire body was dragged out of the black mist by this force.
His face was not visible beneath the cloak.
But it looked exactly like the shadow beside Su Weichuan.
Mo Yunhan assumed it was the other party and dared not be careless.
He swiftly leaped up and kicked the opponent, simultaneously pulling the helmsman away, preparing to defeat the shadow with all his might.
The shadow couldn't even dodge the kick and was hit squarely.
He collapsed to the ground in a disheveled state, spitting out a mouthful of blood.
The hood of the cloak fell off, revealing a face covered by a black veil, and those beautiful eyes were all too familiar.
It was etched into my soul.
Mo Yunhan was completely stunned.
"Who are you……"
