When they arrived at the long street, although the chaotic scene of people biting each other that Mu Jinnian had imagined did not occur, it was still not peaceful.
News of what happened at the Zhuang family's residence had spread, and people who were originally strolling on the street or drinking tea and wine were now rushing home in fear, causing chaos in the crowd.
In this situation, it would be difficult to move forward on horseback.
Mu Jinnian and Qingxi had no choice but to dismount and walk.
Fortunately, it's not far from Dali Temple now; you can get there by crossing the long street.
The people around him looked terrified. Some were shouting that a monster was coming, while others kept muttering prayers for divine protection.
Mu Jinnian held the little dumpling tightly, supporting the back of her head with his hand, pressing her head against his chest, and protecting her as they walked forward.
Qingxi walked ahead of Mu Jinqian, pushing through the crowd to clear a path for him and Xiaotuanzi.
The little dumpling peeked out and looked at the once bustling and peaceful street, now transformed into a place where everyone was terrified. It couldn't help but feel sad.
She never imagined that a bloodthirsty demon child could make things so complicated.
After leaving the most crowded part of the long street, the crowd thinned out.
Mu Jinnian and Qingxi quickened their pace, eager to get the little dumpling to Dali Temple as soon as possible.
"Aunt! Young Master Mu, please save us!"
Suddenly, a familiar voice came from beside me.
The voice sounded like it was being shouted at them! Qingxi and Mu Jinnian looked in the direction of the sound.
They saw Su Momo waving at them as she ran quickly towards them.
A slender, scholarly-looking man followed behind her.
Both of them looked flustered, but when they saw Qingxi and Mu Jinnian, they showed joy.
Qingxi immediately guessed that the man must be Su Momo's sweetheart, Wang Yong.
But she didn't have the time or energy to deal with these two right now. Without even stopping, she yelled at Su Momo, "Go home and stay here! Don't come out!"
Su Momo, however, pulled Wang Yong along and quickened her pace to catch up with Qingxi.
"Auntie, where are you going? Please take us with you," Su Momo pleaded.
She and Wang Yong were looking at jewelry when she overheard the story of the Zhuang family. Coming from a prominent family, she quickly realized that this was no ordinary matter, so she pulled Wang Yong along, wanting to go back.
Just then, I saw Qingxi and Mu Jinnian.
Su Momo's mind raced.
Today, Wang Yong used up all his savings to buy jewelry.
Rather than returning to Wang Yong's home, which had little food left, it was better to stay with Qingxi.
These two people are no ordinary individuals; under these circumstances, at least we can take them to a safe and reliable place.
"Get out!" Qingxi shouted angrily.
She was so worried about the little dumpling that she couldn't spare any energy to deal with Su Momo.
Seeing her cold expression, Su Momo steeled her heart, gritted her teeth, rushed to Qingxi, and knelt down with a thud.
"Auntie, please take me and Wang Yong with you for my sister's sake. You can't let me and the baby in my belly be in danger together!" Su Momo said pitifully, clutching her stomach.
Su Ruiling! Child!
As Su Ruiling's best friend and a mother, Su Momo's words struck a chord with Qingxi.
Qingxi walked past her without stopping, saying, "If you want me to guide you, then follow me. If you can't keep up, then good luck to you!"
Su Momo knew that this was the biggest concession her aunt had made, so she quickly got up from the ground, grabbed Wang Yong, and followed.
Qingxi sighed at her own soft heart and prayed to heaven, hoping that heaven would take pity on her for saving three lives and let her youngest daughter get better and get through this ordeal safely.
Qingxi and Mu Jinnian soon arrived at Dali Temple.
Su Momo and Wang Yong followed desperately. Unlike Qingxi and Mu Jinnian, who were martial arts practitioners, they were running so hard that their throats were practically filled with the taste of blood.
Many guards and soldiers stood outside the Dali Temple, indicating that the situation inside was under control.
"Quickly! Take me to see Minister Zhen!" Qingxi rushed to a guard and said anxiously.
The guards of Dali Temple recognized Qingxi and Mu Jinnian and quickly led them into the temple.
