Chapter 295: Open!!! (1)

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The moon was bright, and the stars were sparse. On a mountain near the Hidden Dragon Cave…

Ye Jingtang was hiding in the bushes and using his monocular to observe the natural cave entrance that was more than 100 feet tall in the mountain col. Pei Xiangjun and Luo Ning were guarding the surroundings.

After learning the approximate location of the Prince of Wu’s hiding place yesterday afternoon, Ye Jingtang had rushed back to White Millet Town overnight without stopping and found the 2,000 light cavalry stationed there.

In the face of this great achievement of capturing the Prince of Wu, the military officer leading the troops didn’t even require Ye Jingtang to take out the ‘As If I Am Here’ token. He immediately broke camp and rushed over to seize the Prince of Wu.

However, the Prince of Wu was hiding in the deep mountains and ancient forests. No matter how fast the soldiers marched, they couldn’t reach the destination in an instant. Ye Jingtang had to act as a scout and first go to the vicinity to keep a lookout to prevent the Prince of Wu from escaping again.

The Prince of Wu’s spies were clearly very well-informed. Not long after he arrived, countless figures appeared in the originally deserted Hidden Dragon Cave.

Then more than 400 personal guards and servants appeared with boxes containing jewelry, medicinal herbs, and documents. The Prince of Wu, who was wearing a python robe, was among them.

Behind them were more than 100 prisoners chained up. Under the moonlight, they quickly walked into the depths of Wu Mountains.

Ye Jingtang used his monocular to search the team carefully. After searching for a long time, he didn’t find any traces of Bai Siming, Guan Yujia, and other top experts. It wasn’t until the Prince of Wu’s team walked a few kilometers into the mountains that another team appeared in the cave.

There were more than ten people in the group, all of whom looked like experts. Leading them was Bai Siming, who was wearing a scholarly robe, and Guan Yujia, who was wearing bandages.

Behind them were two Jianghu people in black cloaks. They each carried a weapon wrapped in black cloth on their backs.

And behind them were eight people dressed as guards. They were working together to carry a shoulder-high bronze medicinal furnace. From its size, it was no less than 1,500 kilograms.

There was still a flame burning in the fire cavity under the medicinal furnace. Beside it was an old man with disheveled hair and a medicine box hanging on his shoulder. He was walking beside the furnace with a cattail leaf fan and constantly observing the fire.

Seeing this scene, Ye Jingtang perked up. He knew that the target had arrived. He handed the monocular to Third Lady and asked, “Are those two men in bamboo hats carrying Jun Mountain Sabers?”

After taking a careful look, Pei Xiangjun said, “It looks like it, and the body shape of one of them is similar to Yao Wenzhong’s. It seems that the Three Absolutes Elderly Immortal’s information was correct. If Jun Mountain Terrace isn’t here to deal with you, why are they walking with the Prince of Wu’s people?”

“Maybe it’s for the medicine in the furnace.”

Luo Ning squinted and observed. She asked curiously, “Why did they split up?”

Ye Jingtang knew this very well. He raised his hand and gestured. “The Prince of Wu’s personal guards have extinguished all lights and are marching silently to avoid being discovered by scouts. There is a fire in the medicinal furnace, so they have to keep a distance. If something happens behind, the Prince of Wu can run away directly. If something happens in front, the experts behind will be able to throw away the medicinal furnace and quickly catch up.”

Luo Ning nodded in understanding and deliberated for a moment. “The three of us definitely won’t be able to deal with four top experts. By the time the soldiers arrive, they’ll have long fled. How can we get the formula?”

Ye Jingtang knew that attacking head-on was courting death. After carefully observing the situation, he curled his fingers slightly and whispered into the ears of the two women…

At the same time, in a valley nearby…

The Northern Liang Thief Sage, who was dressed in night clothes, was quietly hiding in the forest and secretly watching the group of people carrying the furnace slowly pass by.

After she got rid of the demoness in white the night before, the progress of her investigation was much smoother. She no longer had to worry that a white shadow would suddenly appear and beat her up halfway.

But now that she thought about it, being chased for more than half a year wasn’t all bad.

Ever since she left her hometown with a heavy responsibility a few years ago, she had been hiding in the dark and roaming Jianghu alone. She had traveled all over Northern Liang, but she didn’t know who she was or what she was doing. Usually, she didn’t have anyone to talk to. It was as if she was wandering outside the world. As time passed, she even gradually became depressed and lazy in this environment.

The appearance of the demoness in white was like a big wolf behind her, chasing after her and biting her. Although the process was very uncomfortable, she had to admit that her legs were much more agile than when she was traveling alone. The original boringness was gone, and her life became a battle of wits and bravery with the demoness.

But the demoness had suddenly left, and she had returned to her days of being alone again. She couldn’t help sighing in her heart.

Fortunately, she was already close to her target. As long as she obtained the formula of the Heavenly Carnelian Bead, she would be able to return to her hometown in glory. When the Snow Lake Flower bloomed, she would be able to leave to settle scores with the demoness… freewebn(o)vel.com

While thinking, the black-clothed woman kept a distance and followed the large medicinal furnace slowly moving forward in the forest.

The black-clothed woman knew that the ingredients for the Heavenly Carnelian Bead were placed in the medicinal furnace. From her understanding of the Heavenly Carnelian Bead, it had to be prepared for at least half a year and kept warm with fire. As long as she added the main ingredient, Snow Lake Flower, it could immediately condense into the medicinal bead.

If this furnace of medicine were ruined, even if the Prince of Wu had the medicinal herbs, he wouldn’t have half a year to prepare the medicine again. Therefore, these people had to escape with the furnace.

And Zhang Jinglin, who was looking after the furnace at the side, had a medicine box hanging on his shoulder. If things were as she expected, the Heavenly Carnelian Bead’s ‘remnant formula’ that he had stolen from the Northern Liang Imperial Palace was inside.

She wanted to find an opportunity to sneak up on Zhang Jinglin and snatch the medicine box, but he had four experts by his side. She was confident that she could shake them off, but the risk of rushing in to snatch something was too high. For this reason, she could only maintain a distance and quietly wait for an opportunity.

And she didn’t have to wait too long for this opportunity…
