The Virgin Mary in the Book: I Decide My Life with Two Swords

Cang Yue Kingdom——Langya Pavilion

On the night of August 18th, the moon illuminates the earth like daytime, and all the scenery can be seen.

Ye Ling had no intention of watching and kept looking for someone everywhere. Ji Ruochen ordered that they should not make a big fuss but must search inch by inch and not miss any details. He didn't believe that a living person could just disappear like that, and disappeared right under his nose in Langya Pavilion.

Xue Jingchuan was an outsider after all, and some places were inconvenient for him to go, so he could only say that he was going back to Xianren Peak to wait for news, but actually went to Heming Pavilion to find Nangong Chen.

Nangong Chen was shocked when he heard Xue Jingchuan's words: "What? You said Jiuyou is missing?"

"Yes, now the entire Langya Pavilion is secretly looking for people, and the road down the mountain is blocked." Xue Jingchuan was also anxious.

Nangong Chen began to think for a long time, and suddenly he sat up: "This afternoon, my brother left in a hurry."

"King Xian?" Xue Jingchuan thought for a moment and shook his head: "He only has Shen Can by his side, so he is no match for Jiuyou."

"No, I have a feeling something big is about to happen. Shadow Ninja, send a pigeon to Zhezhou Anzhuang immediately and have them closely monitor King Xinxian's every move."

"Yes" the Shadow Ninja hurried out to send a message using the carrier pigeon they brought with them.

The pigeon didn't fly far before it was shot down by a feather arrow. The person who shot the arrow was none other than Ji Ruochen. Now that he had closed the mountain, he would not let any news get out.

The guard brought the dead pigeon forward, and Ji Ruochen took down the letter and examined it: "It turned out to be from Prince Beichen. He asked his Anzhuang to keep an eye on Prince Xian. It has nothing to do with us."

On the other side, Ye Ling came to the orchard under the moonlight.

Zhuang Yi said, "Si Shi, this is unlikely, right? Jiuyou doesn't like to eat fruit."

The two men shouted as they walked. Ye Ling went to the pavilion to check, but found nothing.

Zhuang Yi suddenly shouted, "Envoy, come here quickly, something is happening here."

Ye Ling flew over directly and saw that several fruit trees had been cut down and were in ruins, with apples and dates all over the ground.

"Looking at the traces, the fight was fierce!" Zhuang Yi continued to check later.

Ye Ling took out a tinderbox and carefully examined the traces on the tree, confirming that they were left by Jiuyou's Fengming Sword. Her heart sank to the bottom, and she didn't care about Zhuang Yi and left directly with Youlong Taxue.

In less than a quarter of an hour, Ye Ling appeared at the gate of Xianren Peak. Qian Qing hurried out and said, "Miss, someone gave you a letter. Before I could ask, the person ran away."

Ye Ling quickly opened the letter. The content was very simple:

If you want Jiuyou to be alive, you have to exchange the construction plan and formation plan of Langya Pavilion. The time limit is three days at most. No one will be waiting after that time. Nangong Xuan.

After reading it, Ye Ling's anger soared: "I must kill you"

"Miss, who are you going to kill? Where is Jiuyou?"

"It's getting late, you should go and get some rest!" Ye Ling said, then turned and left, going down the mountain without anyone noticing.

Zhuang Yi practiced Qinggong and ran all the way, and arrived at Tianzi Hall sweating profusely. "Ji... Ji Sishi, no... no, our Sishi and I found signs of a fight in the orchard. Our Sishi left alone and is also missing."

"It's over, something really happened" Yue Chi's heart sank.

"Don't disturb the Sect Master, as tonight is his wedding night. Don't disturb the old Pavilion Master and Senior Feng and the others either." Ji Ruochen said calmly, "Zhuang Yi, go back to Immortal Peak and see if Envoy Ye is there."

"Okay." Zhuang Yi didn't dare to delay. It took him two quarters of an hour to go back and forth, and he was almost exhausted when he came back: "Qian Qing said that Si Shi received a letter, and then she left."

"Nangong Xuan," Yue Chi said softly.

“I closed the mountain road…”

"You can't seal her."

The "official" Du Jiang trotted in and said, "I have caught a man who wanted to go down the mountain in the dark.

"You dare to arrest our envoy?" Zhuang Yi immediately quit.

"Do I have the guts?" Du Jiang was speechless. "It was Young Master Yuan Jialin, and he just hesitated when I asked him questions."

"Bring it in"

Yuan Jialin was brought in, cursing: "Let me go, do you know who I am?"

Ji Ruochen walked towards Yuan Jialin with a sullen face. "Speak frankly, was Jiuyou kidnapped by Prince Xian? And were you the one who led them to the orchard in the back mountain?"

"I...I don't understand what you said." Yuan Jialin was obviously panicked.

In the blink of an eye, Ji Ruochen stabbed a dagger into Yuan Jialin's arm.

"Ah~" Yuan Jialin screamed in pain.

Ji Ruochen said in a cold voice: "I have a bad temper, so I will only ask the question once. Answer me, otherwise, I will make you wish you were dead."

"I...I really don't know. I want to tell my father...ah~"

Ji Ruochen twirled the dagger without changing his expression: "One last time, say it."

"It's... it's me." Yuan Jialin couldn't bear it anymore: "They... they took the person away and asked... asked me to give Ye Ling a letter..."

Ji Ruochen pulled out the dagger. Yue Chi, however, went up and pinched Yuan Jialin's wound: "Jiuyou's martial arts skills are not weak, who helped him?"

Yuan Jialin was shaking with pain. "I don't know. I heard Prince Xian call him Jialuo. I really don't know anything else. I was just confused for a moment."

"Jia Luo" several people present said in unison, and Yue Chi said: "The deputy envoy of the Falcon Prison? Why is he here?"

"I didn't even notice anything?" Ji Ruochen began to doubt himself, then shook his head: "No, no, no, absolutely impossible." He looked at Yuan Jialin again: "You did this too, right? These past few days, you were the only ones who went up the mountain, and I didn't strictly check all the followers."

Yuan Jialin trembled all over, his eyes evading: "I... I don't even know any Jialuo."

"You're still not being honest." Yue Chi took off his cloak, picked up the whip and went down.

"Ah~" Yuan Jialin rolled over in pain. "I said, I said, don't hit me. I said, the day before yesterday, Prince Xian's men found me and asked me to help him bring a dozen people into Langya Pavilion. They said... they said they would give me a high position afterward. I... I agreed. I really didn't know they were from the Falcon Prison."

"Yuan Jialin" Ji Ruochen grabbed the person on the ground and trembled with anger: "Why did you harm Jiuyou and Ye Sishi?"

"If they hadn't protected Susu, she would have been mine long ago. She would never have married Mo Yufeng," Yuan Jialin said hysterically.

"Unfaithful and unfilial, he deserves to be killed." Su Mu walked into the house with steady steps.

Ji Ruochen and Yue Chi quickly bowed and saluted: "Old Pavilion Master."

"I have a rough idea of ​​what's going on. Yufeng, don't disturb him tonight. Ruochen, let King Beichen go down the mountain immediately and have him rescue Jiuyou first. Then, open all the traps on Xuanwu Peak and search every inch. Those beasts haven't left yet."

"Yes." Ji Ruochen took a step and remembered something: "Pavilion Master, Ye Sishi should have gone down the mountain. She...her..."

"Don't worry, she won't exchange the secrets of Langya Pavilion for Jiuyou. You should trust your compatriots on this point," Su Mu said.

"That's not what I meant. I'm afraid she might act drastically. Just in case... shouldn't we be prepared in advance?"

Su Mu sat down on the tiger-skin chair and stroked his beard. "People in the martial arts world say that the six states of Nanyu are all under the control of Langya Pavilion, and the imperial court has no control over them. This is not false. Langya Pavilion has been too weak in recent years, and those with ulterior motives outside have increasingly ignored us. Ye Ling, this girl is indeed suitable to be the envoy of the Renzi Hall. The Renzi Hall's motto is bellicosity."

"I understand," Ji Ruochen bowed and left.

"Take him away and lock him up and wait for punishment," said Yue Chi.

"Yes." Two guards stepped forward and pulled Yuan Jialin away, and the rest of the people also tactfully left.

"Yue Chi, send a pigeon to the Guizitang of the Demon Beast Peak and ask him to prepare for battle!" Su Mu exuded the aura of a king, and he was completely different from the usual laughing old man.

"Yes." Yue Chi did not dare to delay and immediately sat down to write the secret letter.

Monster Peak, known to everyone, is the most terrifying peak in Wuxi Mountain. Rumor has it that it's infested with poisonous insects, snakes, and ants, and all manner of ferocious beasts run rampant, so no one dares enter. But the truth is, Monster Peak hides Langya Pavilion's most terrifying Ghost Hall, filled with tens of thousands of meticulously trained assassins capable of easily defeating ten enemies alone. To this day, the only four outsiders who know of the Ghost Hall's existence are Su Mu, Mo Yufeng, Feng Qingyang, and Ji Ruochen.

Yue Chi simply wrote two words on the piece of paper: "Prepare for war", and then skillfully took out a wooden bird from the secret cabinet on the wall. Although the bird was made of wood, it was vivid. He put the note into the chest of the wooden bird, and after activating the mechanism, it took off smoothly and flew towards the dark mountain along the prescribed route.

Half an hour later, Ji Ruochen found Jia Luo and his men. Seeing that they were exposed, they could only fight with all their strength.

Jialuo’s martial arts skills were indeed very high, and Ji Ruochen fought with all his strength, but still couldn’t defeat her.

At the critical moment, Feng Qingyang appeared, and with just three moves, Jialuo fell to the ground, vomiting blood and died.

Su Mu also came: "Brother Feng, you must listen to my advice and not get involved. You are the supreme master of the martial arts world!"

"You don't want me to go down the mountain, aren't you afraid that the girl will kill everyone in Prince Xian's Mansion? Tell me, can you clean up her mess when the time comes? I am old, but I will not allow others to bully my disciples and kidnap them. I will not let the Nangong family off the hook for this matter. At worst, I will go to the capital and kill Nangong Hanyi and put an end to it all," Feng Qingyang asked.

"Brother Feng, you... Hey? Brother Feng?" Su Mu looked at Feng Qingyang, who had disappeared, and felt a headache. "Sure enough, Ye Ling is his biological disciple, there is no doubt about it. They are of the same character. The master and the disciple would draw their swords at the slightest disagreement!"

"Master, it's almost dawn," said Ji Ruochen.

"You lead the people down the mountain. Remember, if you lead the people from Renzitang down the mountain, their Si Shi will protect themselves. Yue Chi, you take care of entertaining the guests. There must be many people leaving today. Yufeng has the same temper as his master and his junior sister. When he wakes up, he will definitely go down the mountain regardless of everything," Su Mu ordered.

"Yes" Ji Ruochen and Yue Chi bowed.

At this moment, in Xianyun Pavilion, Yelu Zongzheng had not slept all night. Duan Kai walked in and said, "Your Highness, I just went out for a while and found that Langya Pavilion was very quiet, as if nothing had happened!"

"Believe me, something big must have happened, otherwise Nangong Chen would not have been called away at night. When it gets light, we will go down the mountain immediately," said Yelu Zongzhen.

"Yes, I will prepare it and leave immediately."
