Chapter 249: You Can Try

After wearing the clothes and shoes neatly, Hu Wenfeng climbed down the ladder. When the soles of his shoes touched the ground, all the fox demons on the scene fell to their knees in their human and fox forms. Hu Wenfeng gave them a weak smile, and said softly: "Stand up. I failed to protect all of you. I don’t deserve your respect."

The first fox demon Xu Xiang rescued looked at Hu Wenfeng and said, "Your Highness, it’s not your fault. You were caught because of us. If those people hadn’t threatened you with our lives, even when those people tried their best, it would be Impossible for them to even touch the hem of your clothes."

As soon as these words came out, the other fox demons also looked at Hu Wenfeng with respect and adoration. Huan Yun, who was standing on the side, poked Xu Xiang’s arm, and asked, "Xu Xiang, who is he?"

Xu Xiang, who was busy collecting wooden barrels filled with fox demons’ blood, glanced at her and said, "He is the second prince of Qingqiu Valley."

"Qingqiu Valley? Where is that?" Huan Yun asked curiously.

After putting the last wooden barrel into her space, Xu Xiang said, "You can ask him later. We must leave this place as soon as possible."

Hearing what she said, Huan Yun nodded quickly like a chicken pecking on the rice and said, "Let’s go, let’s go. Staying here makes my goosebumps worse."

Xu Xiang nodded to Huan Yun, and said, "Let’s find a way to get out first. When I checked this area just now, I didn’t see any way out of here. Maybe we need to trigger some mechanism or something to open the way."

Huan Yun looked around, and just as Xu Xiang said, there was no way out from there. The whole area is one big cave with no way out. When the two were busy looking for the exit route, Mu Yucheng, Xiao Shao and Hu Meiniang were still on their way to Qing Zhu Village.

Mu Yucheng glanced at the sun and said, "It’s almost time to meet Miss Xu."

After finishing speaking, he looked at Xiao Shao and said, "You follow this fox demon to Qing Zhu Village, and I will go meet Miss Xu and Miss Huan first."

He thought for a while and said, "Give me something with your traces on it."

The moment his words fell, Xiao Shao and Hu Meiniang looked at Mu Yucheng strangely. Noticing their strange gazes, Mu Yucheng said expressionlessly: "I need it to track and find you later."

Hearing what he said, Xiao Shao pulled out the sword tassel reluctantly and handed it to Mu Yucheng. Putting away Xiao Shao’s sword tassel into his spatial ring, Mu Yucheng looked at him and said, "I will look for you later."

Xiao Shao looked at him and said, "Let’s go togeth—"

Before he finished speaking, Mu Yucheng had already disappeared from there. Xiao Shao closed his lips and turned to look at Hu Meiniang.

"Walk faster." He said gloomily.

Hu Meiniang glanced at him, rolled her eyes secretly, and said to herself: ’You only dare to be fierce to me. Hmph!’

After separating from Xiao Shao and Hu Meiniang, Mu Yucheng returned to the agreed place. When he got there, he didn’t see anyone around. Thinking that Xu Xiang and Huan Yun might still be on their way back, he just stood there and waited silently.

Thirty minutes passed, and he still didn’t see Xu Xiang coming. Frowning slightly, he took out a hair tie from the spatial ring. This is the hair tie that Xu Xiang dropped in the carriage four days ago when she was sleeping. He picked it up, but couldn’t find an opportunity to return it to her. Fortunately, he still has the hair tie with him now.

He held the hair tie, made a simple hand seal, and a small formation appeared under the hair tie. A few seconds later, a blue light shot out from the small formation. With the help of the tracking formation, he followed Xu Xiang’s trail.

A few minutes later, a gust of wind blew and forced him to close his eyes. When Mu Yucheng opened his eyes again, he found himself back in the village where Huan Yun and Xiao Shao were found this morning. The difference is that there is no one around the village, and it is too quiet.

Mu Yucheng focused his senses, but he still didn’t hear any sound. It was as if all the sounds in this world had suddenly disappeared. Mu Yucheng looked up at the sky, but didn’t see any barrier there. He turned around, only to see a large green farmland behind him instead of the mountain road. He thought for a while, and then continued to follow Xu Xiang’s trail.

At the same time, under Xiao Shao’s sharp gaze, Hu Meiniang and Xiao Shao finally came to the entrance of Qing Zhu Village. Hu Meiniang looked at Xiao Shao and said, "We are here."

Xiao Shao looked at the endless green farmland and the busy villagers in front of him, and thought: ’Isn’t this the village where I stayed for the night last night?’

Seeing him lost in thought, Hu Meiniang saw the opportunity. She quietly took a few steps away from Xiao Shao while staring at him. Unfortunately, her escape plan was thwarted before it even started.

Xiao Shao didn’t even look at her, and said, "Don’t even think about it. If you dare to escape, I will cut off your legs."

"You dare?!" Hu Meiniang was very angry that she lost her usual alluring aura, and stomped her feet in anger.

Xiao Shao still didn’t look at her, and said coldly: "You can try."

Looking at his cold expression, Hu Meiniang knew that he was serious. Weighing her options, she could either try to escape and lose her legs then die, or obey Xiao Shao’s orders and die with a complete corpse. Thinking that either option would end in her death, she decides to run away. At least, she can try to die without regret.
