C279 The Smell of Gunpowder Filled the Air

Because Yi Mengruo had just slept for a while and seemed to have recovered some of her strength, she actually "started a war" with Xiao Chen in the wooden bucket.

Yi Mengruo was a rare beauty in the human world. Apart from her charming looks, she also had a good grasp of the psychology of men. Sometimes she was cold, sometimes charming, sometimes sexy, and sometimes cute.

Even under normal circumstances, Xiao Chen might fall under her attack, not to mention the current situation. The two of them seemed to have completely merged into one. Only now did Xiao Chen understand what it meant to be a perfect combination.

After loving each other again, Xiao Chen actually felt a little powerless. He could not help but sigh that Yi Mengruo was indeed very powerful. If Xiao Chen was an ordinary man, he would probably have been squeezed dry by her by now.

After taking a bath, Xiao Chen circulated his Jade Qi to evaporate the water on Yi Mengruo's body. The water vapor on his body also evaporated along with his circulation.

Feeling Xiao Chen's warm hands and the pleasant feeling of the Jade Air flowing through his body, Yi Mengruo once again became obsessed with Xiao Chen. She bit Xiao Chen's finger lightly and looked at him with a smile.

Xiao Chen felt his scalp go numb. Then he felt Yi Mengruo's delicate hands begin to become dishonest. He hurriedly pulled his hand back and stopped Yi Mengruo. "Mengruo, let's forget about today. We will talk about it in the future."

Yi Mengruo did not think that Xiao Chen would be the first to admit defeat. She just felt that Xiao Chen still had some strength left.

But since Xiao Chen said so, it would be too difficult for her to continue teasing him. So she nodded and said very gently, "Okay. Then we will continue in the future."

After hearing this, Xiao Chen realized that he seemed to have done something extraordinary. In the future, if he did not have time to be intimate with Yi Mengruo, what would he become?

Xiao Chen could not imagine, and he also did not dare to imagine. He also did not dare to imagine that Wu Yaqing and Ling knew that he had the expression of another woman outside.

The night passed without a word.

This was the fourth day that Xiao Chen disappeared, and it was also the third day that Jian Shi was under house arrest. Jian Shi was almost unable to leave the city government during these three days, and his meals were specially arranged by Xu Da.

Zi Xuan and Xue Er were naturally inseparable from Jian Shi.

The news about Xiao Chen didn't appear. Many people outside were spreading that Xiao Chen had either died or left Wuling. Jian Shi had found out from the insider information that Xiao Chen hadn't been found yet. Furthermore, it was very likely that he was still in the Wuling.

The only hope Jian Shi had right now was Xiao Chen. As long as he was still alive... That was why Jian Shi did not do anything every day. Apart from paying attention to the news in Wuling, he also arranged for two of his trusted aides to help him find out more information about Xiao Chen.

On the other side, Xu Da met with Situ Shou and Guang Huojia once again.

"Sect Master Guang, you have to confirm with your two disciples again and again. Is this Xiao Chen dead or has he been rescued? Why is it that the entire Wuling is going to be turned upside down by me? There is no news about this at all." Xu Da was feeling a little overwhelmed right now.

"Didn't I tell you? My two disciples told me that Xiao Chen was rescued by the mysterious man. He won't die for sure. Besides, didn't someone break into the prison two days ago? I think that person is Xiao Chen." Guang Huojia said impatiently.

"Chief Wei, don't worry. Our family has completed the next step of the plan. Even if Xiao Chen called the one who came to the capital, he wouldn't be able to cause any big waves in Wuling. " Situ Shou said in an indifferent tone.

"Brother Situ, you mean your family has already invited someone from the capital?" Xu Da's eyes lit up as he asked.

"Of course. Now, Xu Da and Guard Captain can be at ease. This person will definitely guarantee us, but the benefits must also be given. I will discuss this with you after this matter is over." Situ Shou said as if everything was under his control.

"Understood! Understood!" Xu Da suddenly felt the stone in his heart drop.

The reason why he was in such a hurry to find Xiao Chen was because Xiao Chen had found out about the situation here. He would report it to Hwa Wenfeng and his family in the capital. If what Situ Shou said was the truth now... Then there's nothing to be afraid of if someone in Jingdu backs them up.

"However, I still have to catch Xiao Chen. After all, he has disturbed the peace of the entire Wuling. Moreover, his identity isn't simple. If he isn't under our control... Even if he can't do anything to us now, he might cause some trouble in the future. "

Situ Shou added.

"Of course. I will have everyone guard the entire Wuling. I don't believe that this kid can really fly with his wings, even if he can. It's impossible to escape from my Five Finger Mountain!"

Xu Da said with a determined expression.

"Alright, this is the end of the matter here. Sect Master Guang, the pill that our old ancestor requested from you last time... I hope you can give it to us this month. " Situ Shou said while looking at Guang Huojia, his eyes seemed to contain some coercion.

It seemed like Guang Huojia owed their Situ family something, which was why Situ Shou's tone was slightly threatening.

"I know. I will definitely give you the pills within this month." Guang Huojia's face seemed to be perfunctory, and his eyes were flickering with a cunning light.1

However, no one could notice this, but he had forgotten that the Situ family was the family of inheritance of the Yin Yang Family. As one of the top experts in the Situ family, Situ Shou had mastered the art of mind reading.

Situ Shou had seen all of Guang Huojia's facial expression just now.

However, Situ Shou didn't expose him. Instead, he smiled and said, "We have been working together for so many years. I believe that Sect Master Guang will keep his word."

"Don't worry." Guang Huojia stressed again.

Although Xu Da did not know how to read minds, he could see that there seemed to be some estrangement between the two. He quickly tried to smooth things over. "We have been working together for so many years. There is no need to hurt our relationship because of some things. If there is anything, just say it out loud. Let's think of a way to solve it together."

Guang Huojia was slightly moved when he heard Xu Da's words, but he still didn't say anything. Situ Shou snorted coldly and said goodbye to the two of them. Then, he left Desolate Ran.

Seeing Situ Shou's reaction, a trace of displeasure appeared on Guang Huojia's face. He coldly harrumphed and said, "What's so great about the Situ family? They are just a bunch of bookworms who only know how to talk!"
