Chapter 1123 A Place to Stay



They'll most likely go to places like the safe houses they've designed beforehand. This is the family's biggest secret; you'll have to ask Yu Yanluo to find out.

However, given the magnitude of Yu Yanluo's arrest, the news will likely spread throughout the city very quickly.

Even if Xu Yu conceals the real reason, Xingnu will definitely know that the snake clan has committed a crime as soon as he hears it.

Given how much Yu Yanluo trusts her, she shouldn't stay hidden in the safe house for her own safety; instead, she'll try to save Yu Yanluo and her people.

But her own strength is definitely not enough, so she must seek help from outside.

So who would she think of asking for help first?

Zuan's first thought was himself, but he quickly dismissed the idea.

Because the other party might not know his true relationship with Yu Yanluo, and he was a member of the imperial envoy delegation, and now Yu Yanluo had been arrested by court officials, and soldiers were searching for her everywhere, the risks of coming to see him were too great.

Who else can we turn to?

A thought struck Zuan, and he quickly ran towards the Duke's mansion.

Jian Yanyou is Yu Yanluo's husband. Although they are not husband and wife, they have a good relationship and have worked together for many years. Xingnu must know this.

Furthermore, Jian Yanyou, being a duke, also has the power to help Yu Yanluo.

Even though he was still some distance from the Duke's mansion, his keen senses allowed him to hear the sounds of fighting coming from a secluded alley not far away.

He rushed over to check and found that Xingnu was being attacked by a group of soldiers.

Xingnu was covered in blood and filled with resentment. If he hadn't been seriously injured by those experts when he broke out of the Yu family, he wouldn't be unable to defeat these ordinary soldiers now.

Feeling her strength gradually draining away, she knew she was doomed this time and felt utterly hopeless. At first, she had hoped that her mistress would return, but then she heard the news that her mistress had also been arrested.

It's obvious that the snake clan's affairs have been exposed. She can't save the lady, nor can she save the other members of her clan. Is it really that Heaven is going to destroy our clan?

Just then, a dark shadow flashed by, and the soldiers surrounding her fell one after another. She was startled and was about to defend herself when she heard a gentle voice say, "Don't be afraid, it's me. The lady sent me to save you."

"Young Master Zu!" Upon seeing him clearly, Xingnu was overjoyed. As Yu Yanluo's personal maid, she naturally knew how special her master was to him.

The reason she didn't go to the official residence to find him was because she was worried that the imperial envoy's residence was heavily guarded and that she might walk into a trap. Now that he had taken the initiative to rescue her, the lady was right to have chosen him.

Because of excessive blood loss, she became limp and almost collapsed when she relaxed.

Zu An helped her up and gave her a Jade Marrow Rejuvenation Pill.

Feeling the medicinal power rapidly dissipate within her body, and even recovering a layer of her cultivation, Xingnu was both delighted and surprised: "Young Master Zu, you actually wasted such a precious spiritual medicine on me."

“Your injuries are too severe; ordinary healing medicines are useless. Even the most precious elixirs are not as important as your life,” Zu An said in a deep voice. “Forget about the medicine for now. Madam Yu asked me to find you and have you contact Uncle Fu to help escort the clansmen to safety.”

Xingnu stared at him blankly, her mind filled with countless thoughts. Having lived in human society for so many years, she naturally knew how humans viewed the demon race.

Now that Zu'an knows their identities, he still saves them like this, willing to use such precious elixirs even for a maid. No wonder the madam looks at him differently, because this man is different from other men in this world.

Just then, a series of hurried footsteps came from afar: "We just received a signal. It seems we've spotted the fugitive. Everyone, hurry over there!"

Judging from the footsteps, quite a few people had come after hearing the news.

Xingnu looked worried. She wasn't worried that Zu'an couldn't win, but that as an official of the imperial court, Zu'an would definitely not be able to hide from so many eyes once he fought with these soldiers. In that case, there would be nowhere for him to hide in the whole world.
