As I was about to go out, I heard Bai Lu, who had just finished washing up in the backyard and came in, calling me.

"Brother Zhou Bo, why are you up so early today? Why don't you take a rest? Also, I haven't had time to prepare the meal. Did you forget to have breakfast?" Bai Lu asked.

I didn't have the time to pay attention to her and continued to go out. As soon as I reached the front yard, I saw that Sanfu had been taken away. I knew immediately that she was afraid that Sanfu would not be treated well after she left and would be hated by Song Bailu, so she planned to take her away. After driving her to the designated place, she would release her. This must be her arrangement. Sanfu's legs are strong. If she can run fast, and she got up so early before me, it would be extremely difficult for me to catch up with her. She clearly didn't want me to find her.

No, I can't just give up like this. Without her company, what can I do even if I can live a comfortable life? But I'm like Senior Li Mufeng, lonely and depressed, alone. Even if I have immortality, I don't want to stay any longer. I can only end up like this. Thinking of this, I opened the gate, but I heard Song Bailu's voice again, but what she said this time was enough for me to stop and listen for half a minute.

"Brother Zhou Bo, you are so flustered because she left and said goodbye to you in a hurry, right?" Song Bailu said.

"You knew she left? No, based on her personality, she probably left overnight. Everyone was resting at that time. How did you know she left instead of going out to do something, and that she left in a hurry? I haven't spoken to you since a while ago. How did you know? Tell me, now!" I turned around and shouted at her.

"I didn't know at first, but last night around midnight, I didn't know what time it was, Sister Lingshang and I were sleeping in the room on the second floor, then Sister Yunwen came upstairs, she woke me up alone and said that she agreed with what I said, and she also knew that she couldn't let everyone be harmed because of her, so she planned to leave late at night, and told me that if you plan to go find her tomorrow, she will stop you from doing stupid things and make you more rational, just for her own good. She also asked me to take good care of you, and then she left and rode away on a horse." Bai Lu said.

I walked back from the courtyard, pointed at Song Bailu, and said with eyes wide open, "She left, why didn't you tell me right away? She was being stupid, and you let her do what she wanted? I know, you wanted her to leave so you could get promoted, right? Oh, I tell you, it's impossible. If you do this, it will only make me sick of you and look down on you. You want to be the main wife, right? Dream on!"

After that, I glared at her, went to find the Golden Que Sword, and was about to go out to find Yunwen, but Bai Lu immediately blocked me at the door and said loudly: "Brother Zhou Bo, you are the fool. How can you stop someone who is determined to die? Besides, she did nothing wrong, it's your fault. We are just mortals. It's hard to protect ourselves in a place like this, how can we take care of everything? You said that life and death are determined by fate here, have you forgotten? I don't care what you think of me now, but I just want you to understand that I am doing this for your own good."

I stood in front of her, lowered my head slightly and looked at her, sneered, and said, "For my own good? Is it for your own good? Don't talk about it in a high-sounding way, now get out of my way, otherwise, don't blame me for being rude."

"But even if you go out, tell me, where can you find her? Do you not want everything here anymore? Your kingdom, your city-state, your other wives, are you going to throw them away?" Bai Lu shouted angrily.

"Do you know there is a rule on the plane? Whenever you encounter danger, you must save yourself first and then save others. But I can't save myself now, how can I help others? I have never regarded this place as my appendage, and this is not my kingdom. I just think the hyena people need help, so I help them. I don't have your selfishness and value kings, city-states and the like. But now I have tried my best to help, and I can't control anything else. Do you understand? If you don't get out of the way, don't blame me for hitting a woman." I said.

Song Bailu slapped me in the face. I had seen through her moves a long time ago, but I was too lazy to dodge. After she hit me, I felt guilty and said, "Sorry... I just wanted to sober you up."

"Thank you, I'm much more sober now." I said sneerfully.

Then I pushed her away with one hand, and she staggered away. I rushed out, and she chased after me a few steps, shouting: "Zhou Bo, are you crazy? You have gone crazy for her! Why can't I be as good as her? Why can't I win no matter what? What's wrong with me? The matter of consummating marriage, it happened to you and me, come back!"

I rushed out of the courtyard and ran all the way outside until I could no longer hear Song Bailu's voice. I didn't know which direction Yunwen was going, but I knew that if she was riding Sanfu, there was only one way for her to get out, and that was to rush out of the city wall and the gate and run towards the dangerous jungle. After all, the road on the top of the mountain was not suitable for Sanfu to move forward, while the dangerous jungle was suitable for Sanfu to gallop on horseback.

But there are so many forked roads in the dangerous jungle, one can go to the castle area, the Five Poisons Mountain, or the Taiqiong Cave. Which direction will she go?

I ran out of the city gate and searched all the way. As I was running through the woods, I heard a familiar voice calling out, "Zhou Lang."

I stopped impatiently and said, "I have already made some things clear to Bai Lu. If you want to talk to me about city-states, kings, concubines, etc., please don't mention it. I don't want to say it again."

At this time, Hu Lingshang floated down from the tree. She was still as beautiful as a fairy. My words were quite harsh, but she didn't seem angry at all. She just said, "Zhou Lang, you are my husband. I will definitely listen to you and never ask you to stay and consider us. You can rest assured. But I still want to ask you, have you made up your mind to go find her and no longer care about her? Is this the final result of your consideration?"

"There's nothing to think about. It's natural for a husband to look for his wife. What else is there to think about?" I said.

"I understand. Since this is what my husband said, I will definitely obey and will never disobey. I know the direction where Sister Yunwen is going. If Zhou Lang is determined to go, I will take you there." Hu Lingshang said softly.

I was stunned. I didn't expect her to say this. My expression softened. However, she always had her own plans in everything she did. I was afraid that she would trick me again, so I said, "Are you so kind? Didn't you collude with Song Bailu before to drive Yunwen out? Wasn't the whole plan to allow me to stay and protect you? Why are you thinking about Yunwen and me now?"

She sighed and said, "Zhou Lang, you misunderstood. You mean that I didn't tell you the truth about my conversation with Bai Lu that day, and I didn't speak up for Yun Wen when we were discussing matters at the table afterwards, right? But Zhou Lang, have you ever thought about what you would do if I told you everything Bai Lu told me? Wouldn't you drive Bai Lu away? I kept it a secret for her, just hoping that this matter would be settled and we could all live in peace. As for why I left last night, it was because I couldn't help anyone, otherwise helping one party would harm the other."

I took a breath and realized that I had misunderstood Hu Lingshang again. I couldn't help but look embarrassed and said, "So that's it. I was wrong. You really didn't say anything and didn't do anything."

Hu Lingshang walked towards me at this time, her face gentle, and she stroked my face with her soft hands, saying, "It's not a big deal if it's a misunderstanding, but when sister Yunwen left last night, I looked for her, also here. She had made up her mind and told me that she just wanted you to be happy and live a peaceful life, so she went to the Netherworld Cave and planned to hand over the Yangshen Wood so that those things would not come out to cause trouble again. Like you, I also consulted her opinion and respected her decision."

It turned out that we went to the tiankeng. It was indeed her style. I still remember that I didn't know what was inside the tiankeng. When I pushed the Root of Heaven and Earth into the pit, I could hear a lot of crawling sounds. But when I looked down, I couldn't see any trace of the Root of Heaven and Earth. I'm still a little scared when I think about it now.

But since Yunwen has gone and is determined to go, I must go too. If we are to die, let’s die together.

"Okay, in that case, you should respect my decision now and take me to the Nether Cave to find her." I said firmly.
