Murong Ling'er glanced at Chen Xiaosheng and ignored him. Instead, she turned to look at Chu Lingfeng and Murong Chen and said gently, "Since you've all come in, let's go out together!"

"I guess Pavilion Master Chen must be eager to go in and find out what's going on, so we won't bother you any further!"

Upon hearing this, Chen Xiaosheng's face suddenly changed, as if struck by frost. He widened his eyes and asked in disbelief, "Have you been in there before?"

A hint of cunning flashed in Murong Ling'er's eyes, and she nodded with a wicked smile.

After she finished speaking, Murong Ling'er no longer paid attention to Chen Xiaosheng's face which was almost distorted by panic. She gently but forcefully picked up Murong Chen, and at the same time pulled Chu Lingfeng with her. She moved like a swallow and flew out of the cave.

Chen Xiaosheng tried to stop her, but he was a little too slow after all, and could only watch Murong Linger's unbridled figure walking away.

Then, he anxiously activated the mechanism and rushed into the secret room.

Along the way, his mind was completely focused on the treasury, and he didn't care at all whether Murong Ling'er had offended the tablets of the previous pavilion masters.

When he finally arrived at the door of the treasury, he saw the open stone door and the empty stone room. He felt a loud buzzing sound in his head, as if a thunderbolt suddenly exploded in his mind, instantly shattering his consciousness into chaos.

Chen Xiaosheng stood there like a wooden sculpture for three full breaths before he came to his senses as if waking from a dream.

He rushed into the stone chamber as fast as he could like a madman, but when he saw that the stone chamber was empty and there was not even a trace of treasure, Chen Xiaosheng's legs went weak and he fell backward with a "bang", falling heavily to the ground like a heavy sandbag.

"It's over, it's over!"

Chen Xiaosheng only felt that the sky was dark and the whole world was spinning madly. He seemed to be in an endless dark vortex and had no idea what to do.

At this moment, Murong Ling'er was leading Murong Chen and Chu Lingfeng forward at a rapid pace, and had no idea that Chen Xiaosheng had fainted from anger at her.

Suddenly, Murong Ling'er keenly noticed that the formation in the cave was activated again, and the powerful and strange fluctuations made her alert.

She didn't want to get involved in this matter and just wanted to leave here as soon as possible.

However, just as she was about to move forward, her powerful spiritual sense inadvertently swept over and unexpectedly discovered Lin Yu trapped in the formation.

Murong Ling'er sighed in her heart, knowing that she couldn't just stand by and watch someone die.

She flashed and rushed into the formation like a ghost.

At this time, Lin Yu, who was covered in dust, was in great pain because of the poisonous smoke. He was drowsy and his consciousness was blurred.

Just when he was about to collapse, he suddenly felt his feet leave the ground and his body involuntarily fly high into the sky. He turned his head with great effort and was surprised to find Murong Ling'er, Murong Chen and Chu Lingfeng, whom he was looking for.

Lin Yu's face suddenly blossomed with surprise and joy, and he shouted with all his strength: "Miss Murong! Prince!"

Murong Ling'er frowned slightly, and danced her hands quickly. Mysterious rays of light shot out from her fingertips, and the formation was instantly broken.

Afterwards, she took Lin Yu, Murong Chen and Chu Lingfeng and quickly left the cave.

As soon as they came out of the cave, a cool mountain breeze blew on their faces, and everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Lin Yu looked at Murong Ling'er, his eyes full of gratitude and admiration: "Thank you, Miss Murong, for your help. If it weren't for Miss Murong, I, Lin Yu, would have died in this strange cave."

Murong Ling'er nodded slightly and said calmly, "Yes!"

……

At the same time, Fei Yu, who learned the news, was like an ant on a hot pan. He ran all the way anxiously and finally arrived at the Jueming Pavilion.

Without hesitation, she showed the warrant given to her by Chen Xiaosheng. With the warrant, she was able to enter smoothly and pass through one strict checkpoint after another. Feiyu arrived at the door of the Pavilion Master's room unimpeded.

However, what surprised her greatly was that Chen Xiaosheng, who always waited for her here eagerly, was nowhere to be seen, and the door was tightly closed, as if hiding an unknown secret.

Seeing this, Jingya, who was following beside him, hurried forward and knocked on the door, calling out softly with confusion and anxiety, "Mr. Chen."

"Mr. Chen, are you there? We witches want to see you!"

After several calls, the house remained silent.

An ominous premonition suddenly arose in Feiyu's heart, her brows furrowed, and her heartbeat became more violent.

Fei Yu, realizing that something was wrong, acted decisively and pushed the door open.

In an instant, she was stunned by the mess in the house. Not only were objects scattered all over the floor, but there were also shocking drops of blood. The whole room seemed to have just experienced a thrilling battle.

Fei Yu, who was extremely anxious, didn't even have time to step into the room before he turned around and rushed downstairs.

She grabbed a guard who was guarding downstairs and asked anxiously, "What happened upstairs? Where did your Pavilion Master go?"

"Did he capture someone? Where are they now?"

The guard raised his eyes and glanced at Fei Yu, still with that cold and expressionless look on his face. He said indifferently, "I'm sorry, as subordinates, we have no right to interfere in the Pavilion Master's affairs, and we cannot disclose the Pavilion Master's whereabouts without authorization."

Fei Yu knew very well that this was the iron rule that Jueming Pavilion had established for a long time.

However, at this moment, those so-called rules have become insignificant to her.

Because deep down in her heart, both Chen Xiaosheng and Chu Lingfeng are very important to her, so Feiyu absolutely cannot tolerate them being in danger.

At this moment, Feiyu's heart was filled with endless worries. She couldn't wait to find out what kind of horrific incident had happened.

The unknown fear and worry were like an invisible hand, tightly gripping her heartstrings and making it almost impossible for her to breathe.

The anxious Feiyu approached the guard again. Her steps were quick and firm, and each step carried an irresistible force.

At the same time, her eyes shot straight at the guard, with an unquestionable determination flashing in her eyes, as if warning the other party that if he didn't tell her the truth immediately, the consequences would be disastrous.

The guard still kept his lips tightly shut, refusing to utter a word.

So, Feiyu gave Jingya a look and she understood instantly.

Jingya took out a small bamboo tube from her bosom and opened it gently. A wisp of green smoke rose up, and the green smoke seemed to have life, going straight into the guard's nostrils.

"You...you guys, what is this?"

The guard's face was filled with fear, and he waved his hands wildly in the air, trying to disperse the smoke.

However, everything is in vain.

The next moment, he collapsed to the ground, trembling all over.

After a while, he stood up again suddenly. At this moment, his eyes were blank, his face was wooden and expressionless.

"Tell me quickly, what happened to your Pavilion Master?" Fei Yu asked impatiently.

The guard no longer resisted and said slowly and stiffly, "The Pavilion Master led three people to the treasury!"
