Murong Fu embraced Ren Yingying, whose eyes were red and swollen, and they slowly walked out of the secret passage.
"My husband!"
Yue Lingshan shouted excitedly, but her eyes were fixed on Ren Yingying.
This woman was actually in her husband's arms!
Moreover, her eyes were red-rimmed; could it be that... Yue Lingshan had thought of something bad?
Murong Fu said, "Shan'er, Yingying's father died in the underground palace. You should comfort her."
It turns out it was just that his father died.
Yue Lingshan's expression relaxed slightly, and she nodded gently: "Husband, don't worry, I will comfort Yingying."
As he spoke, he took Ren Yingying's hand and ruffled her hair like he was petting a puppy.
Murong Fu looked at Ning Zhongze: "Mother-in-law, thank you for taking care of them."
"It's nothing, I'm glad you're alright."
Ning Zhongze didn't ask where the people who had led the way had gone. Since they hadn't come up, that explained everything.
Then.
The group went outside.
Murong Fu clasped his hands together in front of his chest and slowly gathered his energy, like the Three-Part Returning to Origin Qi, which quickly formed a huge ball of true energy that had already solidified into a tangible form.
Push it forward.
Boom!!!
The true energy collided with the building in front of it, flattening it and turning it into ruins.
The underground palace is buried in ruins.
Ning Zhongze was horrified. What terrifying true energy this was! With such power, splitting mountains and shattering rocks was nothing.
Ordinary martial artists are still at the level of swords clashing together, but her son-in-law has already reached the level of explosive internal energy.
Yue Lingshan asked, "Husband, wouldn't it seem too deliberate to only demolish the buildings on this side?"
"It's fine, this is fine."
Murong Fu smiled and said, "That's exactly what we need. Otherwise, how would anyone discover the clues, and how would the new version of the Star Absorbing Technique be spread?"
After leaving Plum Manor, we boarded a carriage; our destination this time was Songzhou.
The journey is long and arduous, and cannot be accomplished in a single day.
...
Blackwood Cliff.
Dongfang Bai was embroidering when suddenly, on a whim, she felt nauseous.
"How could this be? With my martial arts skills, I shouldn't have such a minor problem."
Dongfang Bai frowned in thought, then suddenly had a thought and took his own pulse.
moment.
Her face was terribly gloomy.
She's pregnant.
And they are twins.
She could sense the movements of the two fetuses.
This was unacceptable to her.
It was already a twist of fate that she ended up pregnant with twins.
To make matters worse!
She focused her energy and tried to abort the fetus.
But then she immediately softened; these were her own flesh and blood, blood is thicker than water.
Dongfang Bai fell silent.
"Report!!!"
"Master! Something terrible has happened!"
A messenger arrived with news.
Dongfang Bai had nowhere to vent her frustration, so she embroidered a needle that flew across the messenger's eyes.
"ah!!!"
The messenger's eyes bled, and he screamed in agony.
He didn't die, he just became blind.
Dongfang Bai said coldly, "Shut up! Or die!"
The messenger, enduring the intense pain, quickly covered his mouth to prevent himself from making any sound.
After calming down a bit, Dongfang Bai asked, "Speak, what is it?"
The messenger's face contorted in pain as he spoke: "Reporting to the Master! A scout has come to report that something has happened at Plum Manor, and Huang Zhonggong and the other three have disappeared without a trace."
Dongfang Bai sneered: "Ren Woxing? That old bastard."
The messenger continued, "Secondly, our scouts have discovered that the Holy Maiden has been seen in the West Lake area."
"Alright, I understand," Dongfang Bai said unhurriedly.
The messenger cautiously withdrew from the hall, but the moment he stepped out the door, a needle pierced the back of his head.
"Your left foot stepped out of the hall first, which is disrespectful to me!"
Dongfang Bai's gaze remained fixed on the embroidery as he murmured to himself.
...
Yunluo and Shangguan Haitang disguised themselves as men and secretly slipped out of the capital.
"Master! Wait for me, I'm coming to Songzhou to find you!"
Yunluo's face lit up with excitement. This wasn't her first time leaving the palace, but it was her first time venturing into the world, and she was very much looking forward to what lay ahead.
But Shangguan Haitang was not so optimistic. The world of martial arts was dangerous, and one could lose their life if they were not careful.
Moreover, once the young emperor discovers that they have been missing for a long time, he will definitely launch a large-scale search.
In short, cherish every moment.
Half a month has passed in the blink of an eye.
Murong Fu and his beauty entered the territory of Yuanzhou.
Because the carriage could only travel on the official road, its speed was slightly slower.
Looking at the many refugees outside, Lin Shiyin felt a pang of sympathy: "I heard that Yuanzhou is in chaos due to war, and it seems that's true."
"When a dynasty prospers, the people suffer; when a dynasty falls, the people suffer." Murong Fu placed his warm hand on Lin Shiyin's delicate shoulder and said calmly, "In this vast land of China, where is it not the same?"
“Yes, it’s only the common people who suffer,” Lin Shiyin said with emotion. “I’m sorry, I’m being a bit too sentimental.”
Murong Fu smiled and said, "My cousin was just expressing her feelings; there's nothing wrong with that."
While they lamented the state of the world.
A group of cavalrymen blocked their way.
The leading officer rode up on his horse, spear in hand, and said in a brash manner, "Halt! Pay the head tax before you can pass!"
The officers and soldiers all chuckled sinisterly, clearly this wasn't the first time they'd done something like this, and they always managed to make a fortune, earning far more than their salaries from the imperial court!
Ning Zhong hesitated for a moment, then turned to look at Murong Fu.
“Mother-in-law, just go straight and don’t worry about him.”
Murong Fu spoke calmly, then suddenly waved his hands, continuously unleashing finger strikes.
Before the officers and soldiers realized anything was wrong, they felt a draft in their throats and then collapsed.
Murong Fu smiled slightly and stepped back into the carriage.
When the passersby saw the soldiers fall, they were all stunned. The timid ones ran away in fright, while the bolder ones ran over to the corpses and took out some silver coins.
Some madmen even dragged away the corpses... In this chaotic world, two-legged sheep are a delicacy.
