Ming Luo made up his mind and apologized no matter how blushing and heartbeat he was.
So she bowed deeply to Ye Zhihan and said, "Yes! I'm sorry! I said those things last night because I was drunk. I thought you were my brother... Anyway! I'm really sorry for causing you trouble!"
Ye Zhihan was confused: What did she do wrong that required such a formal apology?
"It's okay." Ye Zhihan thought about it over and over again but couldn't figure out why Mingluo apologized. There didn't seem to be anything wrong with what she said last night. As long as she didn't say that to other men, it would be fine. He quickly helped Mingluo up.
Mingluo apologized to Ye Zhihan, but Brother Xiong learned a shocking secret.
This time the chief steward came to capture Young Master Xiong and bring him back home, not just to make him go home and marry Bai Qianqian from the Tiger Clan, but also because Bai Qianqian was missing!
Recently, the Tiger Tribe patrol team discovered the ruins of an ancient city under the glacier in the far north. Originally, there were only vast ice fields and white snow there, but for some reason, a corner of the palace wall of an ancient city suddenly appeared recently.
At present, the Tiger Tribe has sent troops to garrison outside the ruins of the ancient city, and the advance team has also entered to explore. They found that there seems to be some kind of ancient mysterious power inside the ancient city. If this power is used by the Beast Tribe, then they will naturally be able to stand firm in the Suma Continent, and other forces will no longer be able to confront them.
However, what was strange was that the Tiger Tribe sent a hundred elite soldiers to guard this place, but all of these hundred people suddenly disappeared overnight. There was no trace of fighting at the scene, and no signs of outsiders. It was as if they had evaporated out of thin air.
After hearing about this, Bai Qianqian, the eldest daughter of the Tiger Clan, rode her horse at full speed to the far north. As a female general, she naturally wanted to seek the truth and ask for an explanation for the soldiers.
Now she has been on her journey for three days and three nights, but no news has come from the Arctic, so the tiger tribe leader suspects that his beloved daughter has also met with an accident, and wants to go to the ancient city ruins to find his daughter. However, after all, he is a noble lord, and he cannot abandon everything to look for his daughter, so he can only send the most elite troops to the ancient city ruins to continue the search and rescue. Search and rescue teams are sent in one after another, but no one has ever come back alive to report.
The Bear Clan, as the Tiger Clan's ally and generations-old friends, were naturally told this news as an exception. Currently, the Bear Clan leader has sent people to the ancient city ruins to look for people.
"Bai Qianqian went alone!?" Brother Xiong seemed a little anxious. How could this woman risk her life even more recklessly than he did?
"She took two close confidants with her and disappeared without a trace." Chief Steward Xiong answered with his forehead in his hand. It seemed that the young master still cared about Bai Qianqian very much, but this time Bai Qianqian's life or death was uncertain, and no one knew whether they were destined to be together for life.
"This stupid woman!" Brother Xiong punched the wall, and a big hole suddenly appeared on the wall.
"Besides that, Master has learned a very important piece of information." Chief Butler Xiong used his spiritual power to cast a barrier to prevent anyone from eavesdropping. He continued in a low voice, "The ancient power within the ancient city ruins seems to be related to the Ancient Shadow Demon."
"Shadow Demon?" Brother Xiong received too much information at once and was a little confused.
"Well, there is only one ancient shadow demon in the history of Suma Continent. He is mysterious and murderous. He once slaughtered all the demon races by himself. No one knows where he came from. They only know that he was sealed by a peerless master who sacrificed his life." Chief Steward Xiong answered in a low voice.
"Since the ancient Shadow Demon, there has been no Shadow Demon in the world. However, more than two hundred years ago, a child who looked very similar to the Shadow Demon appeared. At that time, the whole world was unwilling to accept him, and only the cross-border person treated him as his own son." Chief Butler Xiong looked alert and hinted at something.
Chief Butler Xiong approached Brother Xiong, his face gloomy, and questioned him, "Do you know that Ye Zhihan is the Shadow Demon?"
"Shadow Demon?" Brother Xiong was becoming more and more confused. He was just talking about the ancient city ruins, and now he was suddenly talking about Ye Zhihan?
"That's right. Ye Zhihan is the second shadow demon on the Suma continent, but people don't know that he is also a shadow demon. They only recognize him as a demon who can use shadow magic. However, because he learned the shadow magic, he was despised by the world. Now that he has been elected as the new cross-border maker, I wonder how many people want to collect his body." Chief Steward Xiong became more and more excited as he spoke, and walked to the table to drink a sip of tea.
"Sir, what is the connection between Ye Zhihan and this matter? Why did you suddenly tell me so much today?" Brother Xiong asked, scratching his head.
"Alas... the Bear Clan will eventually be inherited by you." The chief steward looked disappointed again. His young master was gifted with a kind heart, sunny and caring, but he seemed a little slow in thinking. He had more force than wisdom.
How can you rule the bear people with fists alone?
That's why the bear tribe leader wanted Xiong Zhuangpeng to marry Bai Qianqian from the tiger tribe. With Bai Qianqian's help and support, the couple would definitely be able to manage the bear tribe well.
Alas, the bear tribe elder is really worried.
Unfortunately, Bai Qianqian is now in danger and her life or death is uncertain.
Chief Steward Xiong continued, "The ruins of the ancient city in the Far North contain information about shadow demons and some unknown power. There are only two shadow demons in the world: one is the ancient shadow demon, who has long been sealed away, and the other is Ye Zhihan, who has not yet reached his full power. They must be connected to the ancient city. Hundreds of Tiger Clan soldiers disappeared without a trace, and your fiancée Bai Qianqian and two close associates are also missing. This is very likely related to the unknown power in the ancient city. Do you understand?"
"Oh, then what does this matter have to do with Ye Zhihan?" Xiong Zhuangpeng asked curiously.
"You stupid bear!" Chief Bear couldn't help but give Little Bear a slap.
"In short, you must not tell Ye Zhihan what I told you today. He is very likely related to the ancient city ruins." Chief Steward Xiong reminded.
"Then why don't you just not tell me?" Xiong Zhuangpeng didn't care about the Shadow Demon or the ancient city at all. He just wanted to go back and save Bai Qianqian. If this super-powerful woman disappeared, he would not be able to cancel the engagement!
The bear boss threw another punch. This stupid bear was really hopeless.
Thinking of serious matters, Xiong Zhuangpeng put away his silly state and said seriously, "Sir, please go back to the Bear Clan and report. I want to explore the ancient city ruins in this far north. Bai Qianqian is still there, and I am really worried."
The chief steward smiled knowingly, patted Xiong Zhuangpeng on the head, and said, "This is a responsible man of the Bear Clan. You go ahead, I'll take care of the master's side."
However, the chief steward was also worried. He reminded Xiong Zhuangpeng, "You must pay attention to safety on this trip. It would be best if you can rescue your fiancée. If not, you must save your life. I will go back and ask the master to support you."
"Okay, okay, I know everything. I'm not afraid of the battlefield, so why should I be afraid of a mere ancient ruins?" Xiong Zhuangpeng patted his chest and guaranteed.
"By the way, be careful of Ye Zhihan." The chief steward gave the final instruction.
After the chief steward and Xiong Zhuangpeng talked, they left the guest room. Fat Tao slowly crawled out from under the table. It had just come to find something to eat, but it didn't expect to stumble upon a shocking secret!
