The innkeeper's expression changed, "You!"

When he was about to say something, Su Rou ignored him and followed the traces on the ground.

Gong Yu and the others probably weren't that fast, so Su Rou quickly caught up with Gong Yu.

But why was he sneaking around behind the sand dunes with such a large group of people?

As she got closer, Su Rou noticed the brightly lit camp standing below.

Gong Yu pulled her and asked her to lie down as well.

Su Rou lowered her voice and asked, "Where is this?"

Gong Yu said, "The person who stole the things disappeared here."

Su Rou followed Gong Yu's voice and looked over. "Is this the base of the desert people?"

Otherwise, she thought Gong Yu wouldn't be able to find out where the person was and not chase after him.

Gong Yu said, "I asked someone to check nearby and found out it was the Sand Bandits."

Su Rou frowned. Sand bandits?

The innkeeper must be a jinx.

She remembered what the innkeeper had said, and suddenly felt unsure about the matter.

Su Rou looked at Gong Yu, "How confident are you?"

Gong Yu said, "Sixty percent."

Gong Yu himself only has 60%...

Su Rou stood up, the brightly lit camp reflected in her dark eyes.

She knew she had to go to Wild Wolf Ridge to find her elder brother. No matter how low the chances were of getting him back, she had to try.

Su Rou said, "I have a plan. Do you want to hear my plan?"

Although the desert night is much quieter than the day, the climate is completely different from that during the day.

The cold wind blew past her side, blowing the corners of her clothes up and down.

Gong Yu said, "This is the desert. If we rashly start a conflict, we don't know what the consequences will be."

Su Rou said, "Then you take your people back and wait for me. I will take back our things."

She seemed a little angry. Just as she was about to walk down the sand dune, Gong Yu followed her from behind and grabbed her wrist.

Gong Yu looked at her with gritted teeth, "I'll accompany you. What do you want to do? A head-on confrontation with such a small number of us is no match for them."

A sly smile flashed in Su Rou's eyes. "I haven't set fire to the desert yet."

The camp where the desert people were stationed was guarded by soldiers with great strictness.

There was a burning brazier hanging on their tent. Su Rou quietly came to the back of one of the tents. She took out a still burning stick from the brazier and placed it on the tent.

The flames quickly caught the tent on fire and she quickly left.

The desert man who was responsible for leading them was found in the city. She burned their tents and waited until she could get her things back to ask Gong Yu how he found this man.

It's really unreliable!

Su Rou was really speechless about Gong Yuzhen. It was the change of horses in Shi tribe, and now it was the same with this desert man they found to lead the way!

It was as if Gong Yu was deliberately delaying time.

The flames quickly enveloped the tent that Su Rou had set on fire, and it was soon discovered by the guards in the camp.

There was a shortage of water in the desert, so they used sand to put out the fire.

Su Rou was afraid that one was not enough, so she burned several more in succession.

Gong Yu's men took advantage of the chaos to come in, first untied all the camels and horses of the sand bandits and took them away.

Su Rou looked at one of the camels. This camel was different from the others. It was covered in brocade and satin, and had beautiful diamonds on its body and neck.

Su Rou said, "It seems they are robbing more than just us."

The owner of this camel must be from a prominent family.
