Chapter 177: Who goes to find 177

“If I guessed wrong, the worst-case scenario is going back; anyway, I know where their hideout is. Besides, they must leave Cloud City if they want to return to Dongyue. Moreover, if they fail to rescue the person, our going back now would only lead to being implicated,” Ye Jiu analyzed.

Indeed, Ying Luoxue gave a wry smile.

She had only thought that by following the War King’s party, she would be able to return to Dongyue safely amidst the chaos. However, she was outwitted by her own cleverness, ultimately failing to see through it as clearly as a young girl several years her junior had.

In the Guard Office’s dungeon, the soldiers on watch had their lives mercilessly reaped.

Even in the moment of their death, they did not realize how their throats had been so suddenly severed.

Yet, being cautious eventually led to discovery.

By then, however, Sikong Mo and his group had already rescued the person and, after a fierce fight, had successfully left the Guard Office.

Of course, this success owed much to Ye Jiu’s dose of the Sleeping Drug.

The Sleeping Drug produced by Star Realm had to have its special features, didn’t it!

Without the antidote, General Wei Hu wouldn’t wake up for two or three days, and that was due to his decent physical constitution.

With the leader down, the remaining small fry naturally fell into disarray; it would take some time for them to regroup.

As for Li, the Family Head of the Guard Office, he was merely a rat among snakes, utterly unreliable.

In the shadows outside the Guard Office, Sikong Mo looked at the rescued Prince and a group of guards who had suffered some casualties but had a feeling that something was missing.

When he remembered, he asked Si Bei, “Where’s the girl?”

“What girl?” In such a critical moment, still having to constantly monitor their surroundings for safety, Si Bei’s brain rarefied, momentarily malfunctioning.

It was Si Rong who came to a realization first, “My lord must be speaking of Ye Jiu. She and Miss Ying are still inside. I’ve already sent someone to meet them. By rights, they should have emerged by now. With no news at this time, I’m afraid their odds are not good.”

After Si Rong finished speaking, he saw Sikong Mo’s brow furrow even more.

Everyone knew that their prince always maintained an impassive facade, controlling his emotions very well.

Such a display could only mean that the girl held an unusual place in the prince’s heart!

“My lord, may I personally go and search?” Si Rong volunteered.

A mere servant girl, dying in the process of rescuing the Prince, could be considered her good fortune. Si Bei was about to object when he heard Sikong Mo say, “That won’t be necessary. You go ahead; I will go myself.”

“My lord, that’s not advisable!” Si Rong felt it was unworthy for even Si Bei to go, let alone Sikong Mo.

Even though the prince was highly skilled in martial arts, it was difficult to fight off many attackers by oneself, and now, the entire Guard Office was after them, not to mention the five thousand elite soldiers under Wei Hu!

“Indeed, my lord, you are Dongyue’s War King. The borders are unstable, and you are needed. We cannot afford any mishap. Let your subordinate go instead,” Si Rong also felt it was improper.

He only thought that the girl, being the only one who could get close to a Family Head, must be extraordinary. Yet, he hadn’t expected that she already held such an important place in his master’s heart.

“We will not debate this matter any longer. Take the Prince out of the city first. I will find a way to catch up with you,” Sikong Mo said and, with that, he had already leapt into the towering walls.

“My lord…” Si Bei’s words got stuck before he could utter them and, with no choice, he turned to Si Rong, “What do we do now?”

“Let’s get out of the city first.” They were a large and conspicuous group; if they didn’t take advantage of the night’s chaos to leave quickly, it would be difficult to get out once the Guard Office’s emergency notice reached the city gates.
