Chapter 148: Danger at Qingyang Mountain
An San hurried into the study, knelt on one knee, and reported: "Master, we have found a clue. Miss Murong has left the city and is heading towards Qingyang Mountain. Not only that, the masters of the palace led by Feng You are chasing her relentlessly."
Jun Feimo's originally calm face instantly became solemn after hearing the news.
He stood up suddenly, his eyes flashing with a sharp light, and roared in a low voice: "What did you say?"
An San lowered his head, not daring to look his master in the eye, and replied in a trembling voice: "Master, An Yi has led his men to Qingyang Mountain. I have come here to report this to you."
Jun Feimo took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down. He carefully rolled up the scroll on the desk and gently put it in the drawer.
"Tianyi, prepare the horses! I want to go find Xier myself."
Tianyi couldn't help but feel worried when he heard what his master said, but he knew his master's character very well, and once he made a decision, it would be difficult to change it.
He responded hurriedly and turned to go out to prepare.
On the top of Qingyang Mountain, a loud noise shook the world, and smoke billowed, covering the sky and the sun.
In this chaos, the palace masters led by Feng You suffered unprecedented heavy losses.
Their bodies were ruthlessly thrown up like fallen autumn leaves in the shock wave of the explosion, and then smashed hard to the ground, accompanied by bursts of screams and painful groans, which was horrifying.
"Master, your bomb is so powerful!" Yu Si widened his eyes and could not help but marvel at the tragic scene before him.
"It's such a relief to see these people blown to pieces!"
Murong Zixi nodded slightly, a faint smile on her lips. "This is a bomb, so it must be extremely powerful."
Yu San could hardly hide his excitement and exclaimed loudly: "Master, how is this bomb made? It's amazing!"
Yu San was very interested in this new weapon, and countless questions arose in his mind.
However, Murong Zixi just smiled lightly and did not give any specific explanation.
Although Feng You and others lying on the ground were seriously injured, they were still conscious.
Their eyes revealed deep fear and unwillingness. During the chase, most of his men had been killed. Feng You was filled with anger.
Yu San looked at them, a hint of coldness flashed in his eyes, "Master, I will go and finish them off. Kill them."
Murong Zixi stood up, looking calm, "Let's go together."
Several people came out from their hiding place with light and quick steps, and in the blink of an eye they arrived in front of Feng You and others.
At this time, Feng You widened his eyes and stared at Murong Zixi who came out from the darkness, as if he wanted to eat her alive.
"You, you witch..." He struggled to get up, but his severely injured body was unable to move at all.
Seeing this, Yu San kicked Feng You without hesitation and said in a cold tone: "Humph! Are you looking for death? You dare to call our master a witch?"
"Ah..." Feng You screamed and fell to the ground in pain.
Murong Zixi said lightly: "Yu San, give them a quick death." Her voice was so calm that it made people shudder, as if killing people was just a common thing for her.
After receiving the order, Yu San did not hesitate at all. He raised his sword and killed Feng You and others in an instant.
The blood splattered on the ground formed a sharp contrast with the surrounding scenery, which was particularly shocking.
Yu Si looked around and after making sure there was no more danger around, he reported to Murong Zixi: "Master, now they have all been dealt with, let's go back."
"Woof woof woof..." At this moment, a burst of dog barking was heard, and the sound became clearer and clearer as it got closer and closer.
When Yu Si heard the voice, she couldn't help but look back, and saw a puppy with snow-white fur running towards them happily.
Its fur is as white as snow, like a ball, its small ears hang down on both sides of its head, its big black eyes sparkle with curiosity and friendliness, and its tail sways like a small ball of fluff.
"Huh? Where did the little white dog come from?" Yu Si asked curiously.
Murong Zixi smiled slightly, with the corners of her mouth slightly raised, and a hint of doting in her eyes.
She waved her hand, and Xiaobai jumped into Murong Zixi's warm embrace.
"Master, be careful!" Yu San reminded nervously.
Murong Zixi comforted him softly: "Don't be nervous, Yu San, this is Xiaobai, my pet."
Yu San and Yu Si looked at each other and saw surprise in each other's eyes. Yu San couldn't help but ask, "Master, when did you get a pet?"
Murong Zixi looked down at Xiaobai, a hint of tenderness flashed in her eyes, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, and she said: "I met this little guy when I went to burn incense before, and it followed me."
Xiaobai naturally sneaked out of the space while they were not paying attention.
As they were talking, a low wolf howl suddenly came from the distance, and the faces of several people changed instantly.
Yu San and Yu Si straightened their backs instantly, their eyes were as sharp as torches and full of vigilance. They guarded Murong Zixi with full concentration, not daring to slack off in the slightest.
Yu Si's voice trembled a little: "Master, it's the wolf pack..."
Murong Zixi was unusually calm, her eyes staring ahead vigilantly.
I saw one, two... more and more wolves appearing from the big tree behind. They approached silently, exuding a creepy aura.
These wolves had sharp eyes and fangs. They approached the people step by step and gradually formed an encirclement.
Yu San frowned and whispered, "These wolves should be attracted by the smell of blood." She gripped the weapon in her hand tightly, ready for battle.
Yu San took a deep breath and said, "Yu Si, I'll make a breakthrough in a moment. You take the master away first, and I'll cover your retreat."
Murong Zixi shook her head, and took out a small black ball from her sleeve, her expression calm. "I'll throw the bomb later, and then we'll run together." She said calmly.
Yu San looked back in surprise at the bomb in Murong Zixi's hand. He couldn't help but widen his eyes and stammered, "No...no, Master...Master, do you still have a bomb on you?"
"Now is not the time to talk about this, get ready!"
Murong Zixi stared at the wolves that were getting closer and closer. She silently calculated the distance in her mind and waited for the best opportunity.
When the wolves were about to attack, Murong Zixi pulled the fuse of the bomb without hesitation and threw it hard into the center of the wolf pack.
"boom……"
The explosive force of the bomb instantly blew the surrounding wolves into pieces, and the huge impact force caused the ground to tremble slightly.
Taking advantage of the moment when the wolf pack was in chaos, Murong Zixi quickly pulled up Yu San and Yu Si, and the three of them ran to the left.
Their steps were agile and quick, as if they were racing against time.
Behind them, the howling of wolves, "Awoo, awoo..." came one after another, as if they were roaring in anger at their escape, as well as at the tragic death of their companions.
