An Tong asked the question she wanted to ask most, but was not brave enough to ask.
She wanted to know the answer, but was also afraid to know it.
"Also, why are you here?"
After asking these questions, An Tong saw that Song Wei's expression was not so good, and she knew that the answer to this question was not so easy.
Song Wei said, "Miss, Elder An has been imprisoned by the Sect Master."
An Tong's fist suddenly shrank.
captivity.
An Tong knew that the imprisonment in their sect was not just locking people up, but that they must be tortured inside.
But at least it was better than death. As long as she was alive, there was hope. As long as her father was still alive, she still had a chance to bring him out.
Song Wei said, "The Sect Master said that after all, it was you, young lady, who did this, not Elder An. So he can be spared the death penalty, but he cannot escape the punishment of life."
"Dad... I'm sorry." An Tong lowered his head and whispered in pain.
It's all because of the decision she made.
"Miss, I came here this time actually on the order of the sect leader." Song Wei continued.
An Tong was stunned and looked at her blankly.
What does that mean? Did Song Wei betray me?
Song Wei said, "Now that there's a new Xianyun Sect on the Xiuzhen Continent, the news has naturally spread back to the sect. The sect master knows that Lu Muyun is a member of this sect, and you must be with Lu Muyun."
An Tong's heart suddenly began to twitch.
As expected, the sect knew everything. The peace they thought they had was actually because the sect hadn't sent anyone to cause them any trouble!
So what does it mean that the sect asked Song Wei to come find her now?
Song Wei continued, "Miss, the sect leader said that if you make contributions to the sect, you can pardon Elder An."
"What do you mean?" An Tong asked puzzledly.
“The Sect Master said, if you want to keep the elders safe, kill Lu Muyun.
"He knows you're with Lu Muyun now. Since you saved him, Lu Muyun won't be too wary of you. You have a high probability of killing him.
"Killing one will ensure Elder An's safety. If you kill another genius, your guilt will be absolved."
"Kill Lu Muyun..." An Tong shook his head and smiled bitterly.
If she could have killed Lu Muyun, she would not have done the things that put her in this situation now.
Now they say they have given her a chance, but in fact this chance is equivalent to nothing!
But what should she do now?
If she didn't do this, her father would continue to suffer in the sect. Could she bear it?
"Let me think about it... Let me think about it..." An Tong kept muttering to himself.
Song Wei knew that both of them were her favorite people, and she must be in a very difficult situation.
"Miss, I will stay by your side these days. If you want to find me, just follow the tree species I left behind. If you need Song Wei's help, Song Wei will certainly be there for you!"
An Tong nodded slightly.
But he was thinking in his heart, the purpose of Song Wei's coming should be to help him kill Lu Muyun, right?
After all, compared to herself, the young lady, the person she was loyal to was actually her father, An Pingren. Seeing her master suffering, how could she just watch and wait?
However, An Tong was not worried that Song Wei would bypass her and attack Lu Muyun directly. After all, with the gap between her and Lu Muyun's cultivation, she did not have the ability to kill Lu Muyun.
Wanting me to take action was simply taking advantage of my being "unguarded." Song Wei must have been the one who helped me lower my hand when I raised the knife but couldn't bring myself to do it.
"The sect leader still wants me to kill those geniuses, which means he doesn't want me to die in vain. But he is so smart, doesn't he know that there is a gap in realm between Lu Muyun and me? Even if he is defenseless against me, I have no way to kill him. The moment I make a move, he can immediately counterattack me." An Tong said.
"Miss, you guessed it right," Song Wei said. Then she took out a small bottle and handed it to An Tong.
"Miss, this is a poison personally brewed by the Sect Master, called God-Slaying. It is liquid, colorless and odorless. Even someone of Lu Muyun's level would be unable to detect it."
An Tong's heart sank. It turned out that he was prepared!
Even the tools for committing the crime were ready, which left her with no reason to shirk responsibility!
An Tong took the things and put them away.
"I understand. I'm going back. You should hide quickly and make sure Lu Muyun doesn't discover your presence."
"Yes." Song Wei said immediately.
Song Wei ran farther and turned into a tree, while An Tong returned to the edge of the fog.
What to do? The peaceful days are gone forever.
If she really wanted to poison Lu Muyun, then why did she go through so much trouble to rescue him?
Although this has led to the current consequences, she does not regret it!
An Tong just sat outside the fog, and he didn't know how long he had been sitting there.
I don’t know if there is something wrong with the fog, but there are no strange plants or ferocious beasts around, which allows An Tong to sit here quietly for a long time.
But suddenly, An Tong found that the fog in front of him seemed to shrink!
No, the fog wasn't just shrinking; the ground beneath my feet was actually shaking! The thick fog was swaying along with the mountains, as if it was about to dissipate!
Countless birds and beasts were startled in the forest. They didn't notice An Tong sitting there, or rather, even if they noticed him, they didn't have the time to bother this human.
An Tong quickly stood up and looked forward. However, there was no scene of a group of ferocious beasts rushing out from inside.
It seems that there are indeed no ferocious beasts in this fog.
But what is going on with this earth-shaking scene now?
This wasn't an ordinary earthquake; it felt more like it was caused by a fight between powerful men.
But isn’t Mu Yun the only one who entered the fog?
Who did Mu Yun fight with?
Without a second thought, An Tong rushed into the fog, intending to help Lu Muyun. However, not long after she entered the fog, and before she had gone far, she found herself emerging from the fog again.
Did she go in the opposite direction?
No, not at all.
The fog is shrinking again!
An Tong discovered that his speed of movement was not even as fast as the speed at which the fog was shrinking!
She wanted to just follow the sound directly to where it came from, but the sound came from the center of the fog!
So An Tong could only chase the fog all the way.
The tremors continued, with mountains collapsing, rocks flying, and trees falling. Even for a cultivator, it was difficult to move forward.
But An Tong dodged and jumped all the way, still running forward desperately.
