Chapter 1846: Chapter 1846: Encountering a Maze on the Road

”If you don’t want to stay, then get lost. Don’t be an eyesore here. It’s your own fault if you get eaten by a beast!” Gao Zhou said coldly.

Gai Yalai shuddered and suddenly stopped. That’s right, she couldn’t just run out on her own, she still remembered the time she fell into a trap.

She turned to glance at Gao Zhou, then looked at Jiang Yichun, a hint of confusion in her eyes.

Bai Ruozhu noticed it and felt even more suspicious in her heart. She decided to find a chance to get some words out of Gai Yalai.

But for now, she was more worried about the evil energy on Achun. Was he going to keep avoiding her and the children?

Tang Feng hadn’t spoken from the back, but he felt particularly uncomfortable. He knew this was all an illusion, he had been manipulated through dreamland, he shouldn’t have overthought it.

Yet, he still couldn’t completely control his emotions.

Thinking of this, he quietly withdrew.

”What’s the situation outside?” Jiang Yichun glanced at her and asked softly.

”We have incited the Barbarian Tribe to rebel against Sangdian. Outside, there’s Lu and Mr. Yao helping. They should have already captured Sangdian. Let’s go check it out,” Bai Ruozhu replied, temporarily putting her worries aside to deal with the current situation.

”Alright, let’s go.” Jiang Yichun smiled at her, instinctively raised his hand to hold hers, but quickly pulled back, his face turning a bit sour.

Bai Ruozhu pretended not to notice, and walked quickly forward. If she were alone, she wouldn’t care about any evil energy, she would definitely hold him tightly and tell him how worried she was about him.

But now she wasn’t alone, she had two kids in her belly. She loved her man, and she also loved their children. She couldn’t be a willful and irresponsible mother.

She walked a bit fast, afraid he’d see her reddened eyes. Jiang Yichun hurried to follow, but still kept a certain distance from her.

Jiao Ling looked at Jiang Yichun, then at Bai Ruozhu, and couldn’t help but sigh.

As soon as Bai Ruozhu exited the secret passage, she shouted, ”Where’s Honglian’s body? Tang Feng, did you throw it away?”

Tang Feng was still dazing off and was startled by the question. He hurriedly looked around, and indeed, he didn’t see Honglian’s body.

”No, I was just inside, and now I seem to have not seen it.” Tang Feng replied.

Others also came out. Fen Jiu clicked his tongue in wonder, walking over to tap the ground with his toe, ”I definitely kicked it here just now. How is it gone? Did no one take it?”

Bai Ruozhu squinted her eyes, ”If someone took it, that’s fine. I’m just afraid she resurrected and hid again.”

”How is that possible?” Fen Jiu exclaimed, ”Then what is she, unkillable?”

”I used to think it was impossible, but now they can combine people and beasts. Her arm was cut off and could still run to find her body, what else is impossible?” Bai Ruozhu said with some anger, ”But I think she can definitely be killed. If the body is burned to ashes, she absolutely can’t be resurrected.”

”I’ll have people search the place, maybe we’ll find something.” Tang Feng was about to send a signal, but Bai Ruozhu hurriedly stopped him.

”Don’t rush, there’s likely a spy in your team. Calling them in now might not be good, let’s solve the Barbarian Tribe’s issue first,” Bai Ruozhu said.

Tang Feng didn’t insist after hearing this, leading them to follow the marks back the way they came.

”If it weren’t for you sending the signal, how would I and the Medicine Saint have found this place?” Tang Feng said, pointing at the marks on the ground, ”We marked the path all the way, afraid of getting lost in this Hengduan Mountains.”

Although he said that, they had walked for nearly half an hour and suddenly realized they had returned to a place they had passed before.

”How could this happen?” Tang Feng was shocked, ”I only brought Lady Gu with the senior, it’s unlikely a spy would deliberately move our marks, so why are we back here? Could it be a ghost blocking the wall?”

He said this while secretly glancing at Gao Zhou, not fully trusting him.

Gao Zhou squinted, ”Perhaps someone secretly altered your marks, or maybe someone set up a maze here, that’s why we can’t get out.”

They weren’t confused when they entered, but ended up walking in circles when trying to leave, clearly someone had tampered with the place after Tang Feng and his people entered. It could likely be Honglian!

”You guys rest here for now, I’ll figure out a way to break the formation,” Jiao Ling said.

Everyone initially thought Jiao Ling was going to perform a spell, but unexpectedly she just threw out a few small mechanical beasts, and in a blink of an eye, they were gone.

After a while, the mechanical beasts returned, and everyone finally saw they looked like little mice, each carrying a small stone, a twig, or something similar.

”There should be some materials used for formation inside these things. They’ll automatically find objects with some spiritual energy. Let’s try again and see if we keep circling,” Jiao Ling said as she put away the mechanical beasts.

Everyone continued along the marks, and this time, after walking for a long time, they finally didn’t see those familiar places again. A quarter of an hour later, they walked out of the Hengduan Mountains.

Tang Feng and Gao Zhou had come on horseback, each with one horse. Tang Feng and Gai Yalai rode one together, but once they reached the rough terrain of the Hengduan Mountains, they had tied the horses in a hidden spot outside. Now only one remained, and the throat of the horse was slit, though there wasn’t much blood as if absorbed by someone.

”It’s Honglian!” Bai Ruozhu said with certainty.

”That Demon Woman will be burned sooner or later!” Gao Zhou gritted his teeth and said.

Jiao Ling grabbed Bai Ruozhu by the hand, saying, ”You’ll have to use lightness skills to travel. Ruozhu’s body shouldn’t be overworked, let me carry you.”

Fen Jiu quickly reacted and grabbed Jiang Yichun, ”You’re still injured, I’ll carry you, brother-in-law.”

Bai Ruozhu’s mouth twitched; Fen Jiu was being too obvious about looking for people to call him ”brother-in-law”, wasn’t he?

”Alright, thank you, brother-in-law.” Jiang Yichun replied smoothly.

Fen Jiu was overjoyed, carrying him forward swiftly, leaving Jiao Ling and Bai Ruozhu far behind. It wasn’t until Jiang Yichun reminded him that he slowed down a bit.

Gao Zhou had given his outer garment to Jiang Yichun, and he was now only wearing inner clothes, looking somewhat comical, but he couldn’t care about that and hurried to catch up.

Tang Feng stood in place, looking at Gai Yalai who was curled up into a ball, cursing in his heart. Whose mother is this anyway? Why does he have to take care of her?

Gai Yalai thought she was going to be left behind, and was afraid of being attacked by a beast, so she cried out in fear.

In the end, Tang Feng gritted his teeth and reluctantly carried her to catch up with the others.

At the Barbarian Tribe, the battle had already concluded. Sangdian was captured alive, biting like a mad dog, while Dujin cautiously guarded against him, calling people to help bind him up tightly.

When the Barbarian Tribe saw Bai Ruozhu arrive with Jiang Yichun, they thought she had broken the thousands strong blood sacrifice and revered her even more.

”Sangdian must die to quell public outrage. His crimes are monstrous, he cannot be dealt with too leniently. I suggest we execute him by fire punishment. What does everyone think?” Bai Ruozhu said aloud.
