Chapter 528: Trapped in a Formation



As for whether she would be hurt by the mechanisms in the valley, Su Wenyue was not very worried. Her whereabouts could not be hidden from Sikong Ling, and she was being monitored by the servants of Taohua Valley. Since Sikong Ling had such thoughts about her, he would not let the mechanisms in the valley hurt her. At least so far, Su Wenyue was at most trapped in the place and then brought out by someone, and had not been hurt by any mechanisms or formations.

After receiving the report from the servants, Sikong Ling knew that Su Wenyue was "wandering around" in the valley again. He felt helpless. No wonder Han Yu had a headache. This girl had indeed been too jumpy these days, almost making trouble. Fortunately, Taohua Valley was his territory. If it was somewhere else, a place full of traps and formations, this girl would have been shot with holes by hidden weapons if she had recklessly entered. How could she be fine like now!

Just the incident two days ago scared him so much that he broke into a cold sweat. This girl barged into a place in the valley that was full of secrets, mechanisms and formations. The servants guarding there didn't know what was going on and didn't keep an eye on her, allowing Su Wenyue to sneak in. If he hadn't arrived a few steps earlier, this girl might have been shot by a hidden weapon. The hidden weapon was highly poisonous, and even if it didn't kill her immediately, it would be enough to make her suffer. What's more, this girl was already weak, and she had finally managed to make her complexion a little rosy. How could she withstand the slightest accident?

Since then, except for a few of the most important places in the valley, Sikong Ling has closed all the traps in other places, just to prevent Su Wenyue from getting hurt when she accidentally breaks in. After the traps were removed, Su Wenyue would at most be trapped in the same place by the formation, and there would be no other danger. As for those important places, Sikong Ling sent more people to prevent Su Wenyue from accidentally breaking in again, and also to guard against Han Yu. In fact, Sikong Ling also noticed some of Han Yu's secret actions, but Sikong Ling didn't really want to keep them, but just wanted to embarrass Han Yu and also wanted to fight, so he kept his composure and waited to see how far Han Yu could go. However, he didn't believe that Han Yu could leave Taohua Valley with his own ability, otherwise Taohua Valley would not be listed as one of the forbidden areas in the martial arts world.

Su Wenyue had roughly figured out the terrain of Peach Blossom Valley in the past few days, and vaguely felt that the exit of Peach Blossom Valley was in this direction, so he had been wandering around here for the past two days, trying to see if he could find anything. As a result, he accidentally fell into the formation again.

Su Wenyue was not panicked. She calmed down, carefully observed and tested, searching her mind for all the knowledge about formations she had come across before, trying to see if she could get out of the formation by herself. After half a day of thinking and testing, she actually realized something. The ancient book on formations that Su Wenyue accidentally found in the Sikong family's study in her previous life was left by the ancestor of the Sikong family. It was not an ordinary thing. If she learned it thoroughly, this little formation would be nothing.

"It's right here." Su Wenyue pondered over it and felt that the most crucial point was this. This tree was the center of the entire formation. After breaking it, he should be able to walk out of the formation. Just as he was about to give it a try, he heard footsteps. Someone was coming over here. He paused, found a place to squat on the ground, and looked at the direction where the sound came from.

Sikong Ling knew that Su Wenyue was trapped in the formation, so he went over and saw Su Wenyue squatting on the ground, fiddling with a branch. She looked bored, with a lot of dust on her body and some mud on her face. She looked like a dirty little cat. When she saw him coming and raised her head, there was a bit of grievance and accusation on her face, looking like a pitiful little child.

"You are such a disobedient girl. Didn't I tell you not to run around in the valley? Why did you trap yourself in the formation again? You really don't learn your lesson." Sikong Ling said with amusement and anger. He walked over to pull the girl up, and with one hand he cleaned up the dirty things such as morning glory and dust on Su Wenyue's body.

"You are the villain who complains first. It's a good place, but you have to fill it with traps and arrays. I can't even have a good time here." Su Wenyue rolled her eyes at Sikong Ling and said in a vicious voice, not polite at all. After seeing him many times, she didn't feel uncomfortable with Sikong Ling. Sikong Ling was a little different from his previous life. He was not so frivolous and romantic. At least that was the case with her now. It was quite easy and comfortable to get along with him.

Sikong Ling looked at Su Wenyue's spoiled appearance and shook his head: "You are really..."

"What is the truth?!" Su Wenyue stared at Sikong Ling and said in a somewhat fierce tone. Because of the prejudice against Sikong Ling in her previous life and Han Yu's protection, Su Wenyue's attitude towards Sikong Ling has always been quite bad. However, Sikong Ling didn't care at all and seemed to be in a good mood.

If Su Wenyue didn't know what kind of person Sikong Ling was, she would have thought that Sikong Ling had a good temper. However, having served Sikong Ling for so long in her previous life, Su Wenyue knew Sikong Ling's temper very well. Therefore, she was always very careful in serving Sikong Ling and didn't dare to lose her temper. Seeing Sikong Ling's good attitude, Su Wenyue wondered in her heart whether Sikong Ling deserved to be scolded or had become a different person. After all, such a bizarre thing as rebirth had happened to her.

Su Wenyue had such an idea and was concerned about it, but after observing her all the way, she found that apart from Sikong Ling's good attitude towards her, there was nothing unusual, especially the last time she took the opportunity to divert the guards and broke into a secret place in Taohua Valley, Sikong Ling treated the guard cruelly. It was useless for Su Wenyue to plead and take the responsibility on herself, as he still treated the guard without mercy, which made her scared and shocked, and also a little guilty. It seems that Sikong Ling is still the same Sikong Ling, and his ruthless and fierce methods would not be used by anyone else.

However, having been used to serving Sikong Ling carefully in her previous life, Su Wenyue felt relieved that she could treat Sikong Ling so unscrupulously and badly, and vent her dissatisfaction towards Sikong Ling.

Sikong Ling saw Su Wenyue glaring at him angrily. The pitiful little cat just now suddenly stood up and felt that it was extremely cute. He succumbed to Su Wenyue's "tyranny" and said with a smile: "I just want to say that you are so cute like this. Beauty is different when she is angry. She is beautiful no matter what."

Sikong Ling had a serious expression on his face when he said this, and spoke in a flattering tone. In addition, he had a good-looking face and knew how to strike a balance. Even though Su Wenyue knew Sikong Ling's true nature, she still felt somewhat benefited by hearing this. Although she didn't want to show her thoughts in front of Sikong Ling, she couldn't help but curl the corners of her mouth.
