Chapter 636: Chapter 618: Burning Huangjue Temple_1

The intimate young couple, in their ecstatic mood, were heading towards their respective destinations.

Yet despite their wishes for calm, the winds of ill fate had other ideas!

A sinister plot was being quietly initiated at this very moment.

Located on the mountainside, Huangjue Temple was veiled in the cloak of night. As the darkness deepened, a light snow started to fall from the sky. In no time, the light snow had turned into a blizzard, coating everything in a layer of silver white.

However, on such a cold night, the Scripture Pavilion of Huangjue Temple caught fire unexpectedly. The flames spread rapidly, and the huge fire soon engulfed the entire library.

Numerous incense guests and monks residing in the temple emerged hurriedly!

Some were fighting the fire, others were rescuing people, and still, others ignored the danger to themselves and jumped into the roaring fire to save the scriptures from the library, their cries filling the air.

When Su Pan’er received the news about the flooding in the scripture pavilion of Huangjue Temple, she immediately suspected a plot!

Yet even knowing this was a plot, the crowd still became pawns in the hands of the plotters, directed as they intended.

"Madam, the abbot has requested that you evacuate as soon as possible due to the severity of the fire and the current conditions outside. Life is the most important thing. Please do not delay any further!"

The little novice who came to report was extremely anxious, speaking quickly.

"Understood, thank you for notifying us, little master. We will leave immediately."

Su Pan’er quickly responded, and immediately ordered her people to pack up.

"Madam can take her people in the direction of the Hall of Great Strength, where someone will receive you."

The novice bowed to Su Pan’er: "I still have to notify other incense guests of the news. Excuse me!"

"Take care, little master!"

Su Pan’er hurriedly replied. Once the novice had left, she, without any hesitation, swiftly picked up Little Yanyan, who has been in deep sleep after a satisfying meal. After wrapping her carefully in a blanket, Pan’er held her close.

Pushing everyone, Pan’er ordered: "Hurry up! Only take the essential items. If anything is too big or difficult to carry, leave it here. The blaze may not even reach here, so carrying too much could be a hindrance."

"Yes, madam."

With Su Pan’er’s decree, their speed in packing increased considerably.

"Fourth sister, there seems to be something suspicious about this."

Su Huarong had a solemn look on his face and turned to her often, but hesitated to speak.

Su Pan’er shook her head: "Don’t worry, their move most likely has a deeper purpose, but their target should not be us. We are safe for now."

By ’for now’, she naturally meant the current situation.

Once the situation changes, just like the current roaring fire, a shift in wind could bring the fire their way at any moment.

Aunt Xiao looked worried: "I wonder if the men know to pack their things? If the fire really spreads..."

Little Xiao Liu and Old Cheng were still over there!

"There’s no need to worry about that side. Despite the divisions between courtyards, there should be separate monks notifying them. As long as we take care of ourselves and not cause any trouble, it will suffice," Su Pan’er said, assuredly.

By directly discarding the bulky items and packing only valuable lightweight items, their speed naturally increased.

It didn’t take long for them to finish packing and leave the temporary accommodation.

"Ke’er, walk behind me to save energy. Cousin, you lead the way. We should keep each other’s backs, and we should all stay close together. Above all, be careful not to be separated by the crowd," Pan’er instructed everyone solemnly before leaving.

"Remember, our final destination, should we get scattered, is the Hall of Great Strength for temporary shelter. If you can’t find anyone there, wait outside the lush green forest beside the temple gate, got it?"

"Understood!"

Everyone responded in unison, and only then did Su Pan’er have the courtyard gate opened.

Outside, chaos had already broken out!

Everywhere were children crying and people fleeing for their lives. Shouts of terror, cries of surprise, sounds of rushing footsteps, calls for help... all kinds of noises resonated in the air. Running incense guests and monks filled every corridor, creating a state of utter chaos.

The fire in the sky was raging, and even though countless people were fighting it, the flames continued to spread rapidly!

Cradling Little Yanyan in her arms, Su Pan’er closely shielded the child in front of her, following closely behind Su Huarong. Ke’er followed them closely as they pushed forward.

However, the crowd was so thick that their group was soon scattered by the pressing throngs of people.

When Su Pan’er managed to free herself from the crowd, only Su Ke was left beside her. Feeling helpless, she had no option but to lead Su Ke quickly towards the Hall of Great Strength.

Little Yanyan was mischievous. As Su Pan’er was running with her, she assumed her mother was playing with her and giggled nonstop.

Su Pan’er, of course, was in no mood to indulge her!

Carrying Little Yanyan in one arm and holding onto Ke’er’s hand with the other, they quickly reached a bend in the corridor, only to see a few suspicious-looking people emerging from the crowd. They grabbed a mother and daughter, dragged them off to the side, and disappeared through a small archway.

The roar of the burning fire, the sounds of collapsing structures, the cries for help...

The place was awash with people fleeing in terror. Someone else might not have noticed the anomaly.

But not Su Pan’er!

A warning flashed in her eyes. Suddenly, she noticed a pair of hostile eyes sweeping in her and Ke’er’s direction. Soon after, those eyes quickly headed in their direction, deliberately pushing and shoving the crowd to create further chaos.

Su Pan’er’s eyes gleamed with killing intent!

Suddenly holding Ke’er’s hand tighter, she said, "There are too many people over there; we can’t get through. Let’s go this way!"

Seeing a brief pause in Ke’er’s eyes, she was grateful that the boy was smart enough to follow her without protesting.

The pair behind them, upon seeing Su Pan’er and Ke’er head another way, quickly squeezed out of the crowd and trailed them.

Su Pan’er naturally wouldn’t let them catch up and continued to press forward.

However, after not covering much distance, she saw two more suspicious figures appear from the front.

Blocked from the front and pursued from the rear!

Su Pan’er gritted her teeth. She suddenly picked up Ke’er by the waist, pulling him along, saying, "I’ll take you along the wall; it will be faster!"

Su Ke, totally unprepared for this, blushed furiously!

Struggling to get down, he said, "Fourth sister, it’s improper for unmarried men and women to touch each other. Put me down quickly and don’t let anyone see us. It would damage your reputation!"

"At a time like this, who has time for propriety?"

Su Pan’er replied, stealing a moment from the chaos, constantly on alert to the movements around her. Sure enough, she saw those four men regroup and quickly chase after them.
