"Oh my god!"
Jin Fan felt a little ashamed when he heard what sounded like ghosts wailing and howling.
"It sounds like the young lady's voice." Jin Fan frowned, turned to look at the guard beside him, and said with a hint of dissatisfaction. At the same time, Gong Zishang was putting on a show with all her might on the other side. However, in Gong Ruanruan's eyes, all of this was just Gong Zishang's usual behavior.
"Young Miss?" The guard was clearly taken aback, his face showing astonishment. Seeing this, Jin Fan's anger flared instantly.
He glared angrily at the guard before him, his voice filled with rebuke. "You're not familiar with the young lady's voice yet!"
"Help! Oh my god!"
The poor guard muttered under his breath, "How could I possibly be familiar with them..." He inwardly groaned, knowing that his daily task was simply to guard this place, and he had no chance to see the young masters and ladies at all, so how could he be familiar with them?
"What do you mean?!" Jin Fan was furious, but before she could ask any further questions, a heart-wrenching scream suddenly came from not far away: "Heavens! Is my life really going to be so miserable? I, Gong Zishang, am as beautiful as a flower, a beauty that could topple kingdoms, a peerless beauty, but I never thought that I would die here today! Ah~~~!"
"Hurry up and come with me to save the young lady!" Jin Fan turned around and headed in that direction, his eyes fixed on the guard at the gate. Seeing that the guard was still hesitant, Jin Fan rushed forward without saying a word, grabbed the guard's arm tightly, and shouted at the top of his lungs, "Stop dawdling, come with me! If we don't go to save the young lady now, it will be too late!" Before he finished speaking, he had already pulled the guard away at a rapid pace.
After the two left, Yun Weishan quietly emerged from the darkness and rushed into the gate without hesitation. But to her surprise, just as she turned a corner, a group of guards hidden there appeared before her.
The limited space in the secret passage, coupled with the large number of people, may also be the reason why Yun Weishan's martial arts skills were lacking.
After only a few rounds, she was captured on the spot when a guard firmly grabbed her hands.
Meanwhile, on the other side, Gong Zishang screamed and fell to the ground. However, when she turned her head, she was horrified to see a group of dark figures hiding in the woods. Fear made her scream again and faint on the spot. Just then, Jin Fan led the guards and rushed over, just in time to run into the three elders, Gong Shangjiao, and Gong Yuanzheng who were walking out of the woods.
In an instant, Jin Fan felt a wave of weakness wash over him.
What happened when someone was helping others into the back mountain and was caught red-handed, and it was this group of people at that!
"You have some nerve!" Elder Hua was furious, while Elder Xue and Elder Yue's faces were even more grim.
Upon seeing such a "grand" scene, the guard's legs went weak as noodles, his knees involuntarily bent, and he knelt down with a "thump".
Gong Shangjiao and Gong Yuanzheng stood calmly to the side, watching the farce with indifference, a mocking smile playing on their lips.
When Gong Zishang slowly awoke, everyone had just gathered in the Elder Hall. At this time, Yun Weishan was already being escorted to the dungeon, and a jade token symbolizing her status as a Jin Fan Lüyu attendant was found on her. This jade token was then handed to Elder Xue, and the three elders' already gloomy expressions became even more unpleasant.
At this moment, Jin Fan was kneeling on the ground, head bowed, staring at the ground, filled with remorse. He began to reflect on why he had helped Yun Weishan sneak into the back mountain in the first place; ultimately, it was because he was too worried about Gong Ziyu's safety.
After all, he had followed Gong Ziyu since childhood and knew his martial arts prowess well. With Gong Ziyu's current strength, he probably wouldn't even be able to pass the first level of the Three Realms Trial.
When Gong Zishang regained her senses and saw this scene, she silently shrank into a corner, acting like a quiet quail. However, how could Gong Yuanzheng, whom she called "Little Poison," let her off so easily?
Gong Yuanzheng raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing an enigmatic smile: "Sister, why have you been hiding over there? Aren't you going to come out and explain? I don't think you're someone who can't distinguish right from wrong, would you? You wouldn't help someone enter the back mountain for no reason, would you?"
His feigned innocence, coupled with his unique smile, sent a chill down Gong Zishang's spine. The three elders seated above all turned their gazes to Gong Zishang, their eyes filled with scrutiny.
Feeling the gazes of everyone, Gong Zishang immediately sensed that something was terribly wrong.
At this moment, Elder Xue's face was as cold as ice, and she said sternly, "Zi Shang, I expect you to give us a definite explanation!"
The back mountain held immense significance for them, its importance self-evident. For this bride from the Feather Palace, not yet married, to be so audacious as to dream of entering the back mountain before even being married is utterly outrageous.
Whose bride is already thinking about going to the back mountain before she's even married? Oh, it's my family's.
Even though Zhi Ren had taken the Izumo Lotus due to his injury, the effect was weakened because it was late and the lotus hadn't fully bloomed yet, so he had to rest early.
They were also worried that Zhi Ren would be furious if he found out about this, so they decided to wait until tomorrow to think of a solution.
Elder Hua was known for his fiery temper and volatile temper. Seeing the two people kneeling below him, he was immediately enraged and roared, "What else could it be! You are all lawless! It's one thing for Jin Fan to be a mere guard, but what about you? You, the Palace Master of the Shang Palace, actually led the way in helping outsiders enter the back mountain. You know how important the back mountain is to the palace gate!"
