The man in the manhunt had sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes. He was clearly handsome, but there was always a faint smile on his lips that made people both hate and like him. Who else could it be but Zu An?
Chu Chuyan never expected to see news of Zu An in this secret realm. At first, she thought it was just a coincidence, that maybe there was someone in this secret realm who looked like Zu An. But she immediately dismissed the guess. The image was so lifelike, how could she not recognize her man?
It's likely that our group didn't leave the secret realm as planned, and the elders of various sects on Purple Mountain were worried that something had happened, so they organized an investigation. Azu is a member of the judging panel, and since he and Manman are both in this secret realm, it's quite possible that he was worried and came to look for them.
No one knows what method they used to enter this secret realm, and why Azu is wanted by the authorities.
She had been in this secret realm for some time and recognized that this was the highest kill order the Adventurers' Guild hadn't issued in many years. Historically, no matter if the target was a king, general, a top martial arts master, or even a monarch, they had never failed to issue such a kill order.
Even she couldn't help but be tempted by the rewards on the kill order, let alone the cruel and bloodthirsty cultivators of this world.
She looked in the direction the knights had gone, then glanced at the large tomb on the other side. Without hesitation, she changed direction and chased after the group of knights.
Compared to the situation at the Great Tomb, Azu is more important.
However, she did not act rashly. Instead, she quietly followed from a distance. Several of the knights in that group were no less skilled than her. If a fight broke out, and the other side had the advantage in numbers, it would be dangerous for Azu, let alone her, to be ambushed by them if she was caught off guard.
Fortunately, I just overheard them saying that they seemed to have found Ah Zu's whereabouts. If I follow them, I can reunite with Ah Zu. Then, the two of us can work together to deal with this group of people.
At this moment, Prince Lieyang, who was further away, was shocked to see this: "Why did she change direction?"
The servant Xiao Sha said, "He's probably angry about the rudeness of those people and wants to teach them a lesson."
Prince Lieyang looked around: "Does anyone know the origins of that group of people?"
At this moment, the servant Xiao Zhu replied, "Judging from their attire and appearance, they seem to be local thugs from Zhichuan, the Gray Wolf Mercenary Group."
"Grey Wolf? Such an ordinary name, it can't be that powerful." Prince Lieyang breathed a sigh of relief.
At this moment, another middle-aged cultivator reminded him: "Prince, do not be misled by this name. They are actually quite powerful. They run rampant within a radius of ten thousand miles of Zhichuan, killing and robbing, committing all kinds of evil deeds. It's not that no one wants to besiege them. Several nearby small countries and forces have joined forces several times, organizing a large number of experts to deal with them. However, each time they were completely wiped out. Later, their people even infiltrated various forces and killed the kings of the small countries. Since then, no one has dared to provoke them easily."
He was Prince Lieyang's protector. Last time, he was tricked and transferred away from the prince's side, which led to his dangerous situation. Fortunately, Chu Chuyan thwarted the assassination attempt.
Prince Lieyang's expression changed: "So powerful?"
Although their country was not a small country, its strength might not be able to surpass that of those small countries combined. For a moment, a look of retreat appeared on his face, but when he thought of Chu Chuyan's otherworldly beauty, he was reluctant to leave.
The servant Xiao Zhu was best at reading people's minds. Seeing his expression, she immediately understood and hurriedly said, "Prince, haven't you been regretting all this way that Miss Chu was too capable and didn't give you a chance to be a hero and save the beauty?"
Along the way, Chu Chuyan caused quite a few disputes because of her beauty, but she was too strong and had a lot of experience in the martial arts world. She basically solved the problems without much effort, which made Prince Lieyang want to help her several times but he didn't have time to do so, which made him so angry that he beat his chest and stamped his feet.
"This Grey Wolf Mercenary Group is far more powerful than those thieves we encountered before. Although Miss Chu is skilled, she is probably no match for them. When she is in dire straits, Your Highness can then descend from the heavens and capture her heart in one fell swoop."
Prince Lieyang's eyes lit up. That's right, this was the opportunity he had been begging for, and now it had finally turned around. How could he leave?
Just thinking about how Chu Chuyan would be utterly desperate when she was about to be violated by those villains, and how she would descend from the sky on a colorful cloud, preferably holding her and spinning her around a few times, gazing deeply into her eyes, wouldn't she secretly fall in love with him?
The thought of that fairy-like figure lying softly in her arms, then shyly saying, "Thank you, Prince, for saving my life. I have no way to repay you but to offer myself to you..."
Various images flashed through his mind, and a fire seemed to surge in Prince Lieyang's heart.
The middle-aged protector frowned and said, "The Gray Wolf Mercenary Group is too powerful. We may not be able to save Miss Chu, and we might even get ourselves into trouble. In my opinion, we should go and remind Miss Chu not to provoke them. She may not know the origin of the Gray Wolf Mercenary Group."
Prince Lieyang hurriedly waved his hand: "No, no, it won't do any good to remind her now."
He reminded Chu Chuyan, but she only thanked him politely and didn't seem to care much.
Conversely, if you wait until the other party is in dire straits, your appearance could potentially bring both physical and emotional benefits. Anyone would know which option to choose.
"But……"
The middle-aged protector wanted to persuade him further, but Xiao Zhu interrupted him: "Mr. Sun, you're overthinking it. This time, the prince brought a group of experts with him, and he has also cultivated the Blazing Sun Divine Skill to the eighth level. He's not afraid of anyone. Besides, Miss Chu's cultivation is very high. She will definitely unleash even stronger fighting power when she's in dire straits. Even if that Gray Wolf Mercenary Group can defeat her, they will definitely suffer heavy losses. How much fighting power will they have left then?"
