As expected.
Mu Chenshuang noticed the unusual activity around her, and with a quick movement, she used her strength to fly through the forest, following the direction from which the low growl came.
The closer they got, the louder the low, furious growl became.
Mu Chenshuang stopped and stood on the tree trunk, and saw a black bear below frantically banging its head against the giant tree.
The black bear was clearly provoked.
Mu Chenshuang frowned and called out softly, "Sui Sui".
He nodded knowingly.
With lightning speed, Mu Chenshuang channeled her power into her palm and descended from the sky, striking the black bear on the head.
A surge of spiritual energy flowed from Mu Chenshuang's palm into the top of the black bear's head, gradually calming the enraged bear and restoring its crimson eyes to normal.
Once the black bear had completely calmed down, Mu Chenshuang instantly leaped onto the tree trunk.
After recovering, the black bear shook its head, sneezed, and walked into the forest.
The black bear became enraged because it was poisoned. Mu Chenshuang looked at the direction where the black bear had destroyed the trees, and the place where it was poisoned should not be too far away.
Following the path of destruction in the woods, she explored in the opposite direction. After passing through a few trees, before she could even stand still, several leaves carrying a sharp aura attacked her like weapons.
Mu Chenshuang frowned, and with a somersault, she dodged the attack. By the time she was about to retaliate, the man in black had already disappeared into the jungle. His speed showed that his martial arts skills were definitely not low.
Mu Chenshuang stared in the direction the man in black had left. She did not chase after him, but instead walked towards the spot where the man in black had been crouching.
She immediately noticed the scattered white powder on the ground, which was obviously not cleaned up by the man in black. Mu Chenshuang bent down, picked up the powder with her index finger, and rubbed it between her fingers.
She now understood why the black bear was enraged and agitated.
The poison powder contains substances that can cause black bears to lose their minds. There are also traces of blood nearby. Mu Chenshuang touched them with her hand and found that they were human blood.
If she guessed correctly, someone had used poison powder to provoke the black bear that charged into the arena from the beginning. While controlling the black bear, that person was attacked and injured by the black bear and accidentally left the poison powder here. The black bear that was frantic in the forest just now must have accidentally ingested it.
The man in black was there to clear away evidence.
However, the remaining powder was quickly moistened by the mountain's moisture.
Who exactly did this?
Sudden.
A low, oppressive aura came from behind me.
Mu Chenshuang's eyes narrowed. Holding a silver needle between her fingers, she flicked it, sending the needle, imbued with the aura of a sharp blade, piercing through the air and rapidly attacking the air pressure emanating from her back.
The man easily caught the incoming silver needle.
Mu Chenshuang stared intently at the man walking towards her in long boots. He had broad shoulders and a slender waist, and an air of nobility and aloofness. As he moved, his lightly flowing silver hair shone brightly in the dim light.
As he walked past the few leaves that obscured his face, a fair and cold face appeared before Mu Chenshuang.
A cold wind swept by, and strands of hair fluttered with the ribbon, his elegant and refined appearance adding a dazzling touch to the cold, colorless dark forest.
Mu Chenshuang looked at him suspiciously, "Is Crown Prince Junheng following me?"
Fu Junheng walked straight forward, stopped in front of Mu Chenshuang, took her wrist, and placed the silver needle in his hand into her palm.
"I was just passing by."
"Just passing by?" Mu Chenshuang asked in disbelief, "Crown Prince Junheng can't even come up with a suitable reason for lying."
Who would pass by a place like this?
Fu Junheng remained expressionless and replied, "I was in a bad mood, so I came up the mountain to relax. I happened to hear the commotion here, so I came to check it out."
She wasn't sure if it was just her imagination, but she felt that the golden eyes beneath the black veil were staring at her with an unusually intense gaze.
Even though Mu Chenshuang couldn't see his eyes clearly, her heart tightened. Wanting to avoid his gaze, she lowered her eyes and said coldly, "You think you're so lucky that you went to the cold forest to relax?"
