A sweet story about traveling into the world of beasts, killing the heroine and becoming the next in

When night was about to fall, Lan Ning saw Wanjing City. In the dark night, it was still brightly lit, but it was not as lively as before.

"Something is not right. The gatekeeper is missing." Xuan Mo stopped Bai He in time. The group stopped briefly in the woods near Wanjing City, looking at the empty city gate from afar.

Now is the time when the whole country is preparing for war. How could Wanjing City, as the main city, be completely unguarded at night?

Xuan Mo couldn't help but frown. He checked the area nearby and found no hostility or any unpleasant aura, only a faint smell of damp earth.

"You stay here first, I'll go take a look inside the city." Xuan Mo was very confused. At this time, the nobles should be taking turns guarding the city gates, and the interior should also be strictly checked, but he did not see the nobles.

Moreover, even the people he sent back to gather information did not detect any aura. The feeling was the same as when they first entered the Line of Sky.

He knew it was best to stay with Lan Ning at this time, but he was also very concerned about the situation in the city.

"Could this be another illusion or something?" Lan Ning became alert the moment he saw Wanjing City. It was really strange that it was so quiet.

She couldn't help but feel a little worried. Currently, the only thing that affected the completion of all her tasks was to ensure that her targets survived. She didn't know if it would affect her tasks if Lan Ji succeeded in seizing power and usurping the throne.

Lan Ning was worried. She couldn't help but pull Xuan Mo's sleeve and said, "I'll go with you. I'm worried about you going alone."

She couldn't control Xuan Heng and Jing Ye now, but at least she had to make sure the people around her were safe.

After saying that, Lan Ning looked at Ling Yan and Liang Chen who were both unhappy, and said, "You guys want to come too."

Ling Yan suppressed his unhappiness, but in front of Lan Ning, he still looked obedient, "Okay."

He didn't want to be separated from Lan Ning, nor did he want Lan Ning to be sad because of other things. With a powerful enemy in front of him, he had better endure it.

However, when Lan Ning's attention was not on him, he glared at Xuan Mo's back fiercely, and followed Lan Ning reluctantly, waiting for her to pay attention to him.

However, the two of them had spent too much time together before, and Lan Ning's attention was now entirely on Xuan Mo and Liang Chen, so he only said a few words to him along the way.

Ling Yan was furious. When all these messed up things were over, he would definitely take Lan Ning back to the bottom of the sea and never come up again!

As if sensing the chill in the gaze from behind, Xuan Mo smiled and held Lan Ning's hand, "Okay, let's go together."

No matter what lies ahead, as long as he can be with Lan Ning, he won't be so worried.

A group of more than a dozen people sneaked up to the Wanjing city wall. The bonfire at the city gate was burning brightly, and the crackling sound was particularly loud in the silence.

Lan Ning stood beside Xuan Mo with an expressionless face, but in fact her hands couldn't help but grab Xuan Mo's sleeves.

As if he found her highly alert look very cute, Xuan Mo deliberately stood at the city gate for a while. Looking at Lan Ning standing closer and closer to him, a barely perceptible smile flashed in his eyes.

"Just stay with us, there will be no danger." Xuan Mo took Lan Ning's hand, pinched her slender fingertips and rubbed them again and again, "Okay, let's go in and find out what's going on."

Lan Ning blinked and looked at him, pretending not to notice that her hand was tightly held. She smiled at Xuan Mo, "Yeah."

The two men following behind them stared at the two clasped hands, wishing they could rush up and separate them.

"It's just entering a city gate, there's no need to be so nervous..." Ling Yan was angrily looking at Lan Ning's back. Deep down, he hoped that Lan Ning would turn around and look at him. However, even though he had stared at Lan Ning's back for so long, he still didn't even turn around.

Lingyan wanted to rush over and cry.

"Stop crying and hurry up and catch up." Liang Chen rolled his eyes at him unhappily. He had occupied Lan Ning for so long before, and he still had the nerve to cry? ? He hadn't even cried yet!

Violent to him???

There was a teardrop hanging on Lingyan's eyelashes. He looked at Liangchen in disbelief, "You!"

Before they had time to say more, Liang Chen strode towards the city. Ling Yan had no choice but to suppress the words on his lips and followed him with an unhappy look on his face.

The city was very quiet, but the lights were on in all the houses.

Lan Ning looked around the street. Seeing that the once bustling street was now as quiet as a ghost market, she felt very upset.

"There is no breath." The group walked for a while, and they carefully observed the surrounding environment and found that they were not in an illusion. The surroundings were so quiet that they could hear their footsteps and breathing...

It was not until they reached the gate of Xuan Mo's residence that they began to speak out about what they had noticed was wrong.

"It's too quiet, it's basically a ghost town!" Liang Chen said bluntly. He couldn't help but lean towards Lan Ning, watching the changes around him vigilantly.

Before, when he was in the illusion of the narrow gap, he felt that the ancient beast tribe was weird, and now it seems even more weird!

Such a big city, but there is not even a bird. It is so quiet that it is eerie.

"There are no traces of spellcasting." After observing for a while, Xuan Mo said, "For such a large city, unless His Majesty orders all the people to move away, otherwise... who can clear out the entire city in such a short time?"

Xuan Mo was very confused.

Wanjing City is located in the heart of Wanjing Country. The surrounding fortresses are all tribes with the strongest combat effectiveness. They can see very clearly from the sky that there are clearly people in the surrounding tribes.

Lan Ning looked around. Apart from them, there was no other living creature on this street. After listening to Xuan Mo's guess, she probably had an idea in her mind.

Generally speaking... this kind of abandonment of the main city is when the enemy has reached the city. She has never seen a city where the outside is intact and there is no one inside.

Could it be that this place has been conquered by the ancient beast tribe?

"Perhaps it was a wrong choice for us to enter the city." Liang Chen became alert. This place was too weird. Liang Chen almost suspected that this was an empty city plan set up by the ancient beast tribe to lure them in.

But how did the people in this city do it?

Liang Chen was equally confused.

"No." Lan Ning frowned. Although she could not sense the breath of other living creatures here, she sensed that something was staring at them.

That kind of creepy feeling that makes people shudder...

spider!

"There are a lot of spiders staring at us." Lan Ning reminded. She tried to find where the spiders were. At this moment, the surrounding lights suddenly dimmed and a cool wind blew from the street.

Lan Ning quickly hugged Xuan Mo's arm and said, "It's dangerous here, let's leave quickly."

That gust of wind gave Lan Ning a very bad feeling. It was chilly and seemed to carry a smell of blood?
