“Whether the Demon Lord sends someone or comes himself, it’s only a matter of time, but I didn’t expect him to make a move so quickly.” Ji Fengyao frowned slightly, her eyes showing a hint of worry but not fear or panic.
Having experienced several reincarnations, she is no longer the delicate, sheltered flower Yun Yao from her previous life, spoiled by her master.
Having resolved the emotional entanglement between Yun Yao and Mo Linxian, she can now even barely overcome her fear of snakes.
Even if Jiu Yue were to appear now and kidnap her, it's still uncertain who would be fooling whom in the end!
Anyone who dares to cheat her or wants to cheat her, ha, should be prepared to be retaliated against a hundredfold or a thousandfold!
Seeing that Ji Fengyao looked worried but not afraid, Xi Que calmed down as well: "Then, Miss, what should we do now?"
Ji Fengyao put her small hands behind her back, looked up at the dark, moonless night sky, and smiled roguishly as she walked leisurely toward the Pill Sect. She said, "Now, of course, we need to think about how to empty the wallets of the Azure Water Sect and those eight great families, and then recruit soldiers and horses to prepare to resist the Demon Lord's invasion."
"Recruiting soldiers and buying horses will cost a lot of money...tsk." Xi Que roughly calculated on his fingers and shook his head with heartache.
“That’s right. This is the Demon Lord’s first invasion. The scale must be enormous. Just recruiting soldiers would be an astronomical number for us.” Ji Fengyao’s clear phoenix eyes flickered, and she suddenly smiled, a plan forming in her mind: “Hey, I’ve got it…”
Hidden Sect Qinghe Garden, Mu Furong and Jingxiang had calculated the time.
Shizuka carried a food box containing ordinary food.
Led by Mu Furong, a large group of people went to Liluo Courtyard to visit the demon who had a connection with the Dan Sect.
Upon arriving at the Pear Blossom Courtyard, Jingxiang stepped forward and headed straight for the bedroom where Ji Fenghua resided.
But when Shizuka walked to the door and looked into the house, she was dumbfounded; the furnishings inside were exactly the same.
There was a hole in the ground the size of a bucket, and there was a lot of freshly turned soil at the entrance, so the hole was obviously newly dug.
Not only was Ji Fenghua missing from the room, but even Mi Wei was nowhere to be found.
Shizuka was startled at first:
You should know that their Hidden Sect's defenses are said to be the strongest in the entire Danling Continent, second only to the Great Mountain that protects the Pill Sect.
Not only are there defensive formations around the sky, but there are also formations underground.
Let alone successfully digging a hole, even if an ordinary disciple were to plunge his sword three feet into the ground, it could alert the ancestors guarding the formation.
But now, a hole has indeed been drilled into this house, and the bottom of the hole is dark and deep.
"What's wrong? What are you yelling about?" Mu Furong was getting impatient when she saw Jingxiang standing at the door for a long time without getting to the point.
Shizuka finally came to her senses, and a surge of joy rose in her heart, but her face showed a panicked and anxious expression: "It's terrible, Madam, that demon has escaped with the help of someone."
“Escape? How could that be?” Mu Furong looked displeased, feeling that Jingxiang’s excuse was far too simplistic.
Judging by the timeline, that brat Mi Wei should still be wondering why that demon died.
Even if she reacted quickly and tried to escape, they should have blocked her way.
The fact that no one is blocking the way means that Mi Wei is still in the Pear Blossom Courtyard.
The Pear Blossom Courtyard was isolated and surrounded by an array set up by Mi Feng. How could that brat escape? Did she grow wings and fly away?
Mu Furong walked to the door with a fierce expression, and following Jingxiang's gaze, she saw the hole in the ground inside the house, and was instantly speechless.
