The top-level junior sister also wants to act weak today

Chapter 53: Escape to the Northern Mountains

Under Huo Cheng's fierce attack, the huge black snake let out a deafening roar, and its huge body instantly lost its balance and collapsed like a crumbling mountain. Its giant head slammed heavily into the ground, and the ground shook violently. Dust instantly rose into the air, like a sandstorm sweeping in, obscuring the view.

In this chaos, Chu Ying and Song Chaoge, riding their Senluo Qinghe, rushed into the dust storm like a flash of lightning, snatching up Meng Yu at breakneck speed. The dust flew wildly, picking up countless tiny grains of sand, as if to swallow them up.

Meng Yu, still dazed, realized she was being taken away, and panic surged in her heart. She quickly looked up to confirm, and saw that it was Song Chaoge who was holding her. In an instant, all her grievances burst out: "Brother Chaoge! You're finally here! I thought you were going to break your promise again!"

Song Chaoge was about to speak to comfort Meng Yu when he suddenly noticed several red fingerprints on his neck. He immediately asked, "Who did this? And what about the scratches on his arm?"

Meng Yu curled his lips: "Yan Dongsheng."

"Did that beast just pinch you!?"

Meng Yu nodded. "Well, it's a good thing you came to save me. But this scrape was caused by me. Just after he pinched me, a snake suddenly appeared and scared me so much that I fell off the sedan chair, and then I accidentally got scraped. I don't know what happened. Although it's not surprising to see one or two black snakes in the desert, a large number of black snakes suddenly appeared and attacked the wedding party. Even the snake king appeared and pounced directly on Yan Dongsheng——"

At this point, Meng Yu suddenly realized something, and his eyes instantly brightened up: "Could it be you guys who did it?"

Chu Ying hummed, then pointed at Cen Yizi, who was flying a sword not far away. "That guy's family is the young master of the Cen family, a family of beast tamers. He's a natural beast tamer. He was the one who just sent all the black snakes near the desert to attack the wedding procession, throwing them into chaos so we could quickly snatch you away."

Meng Yu quickly said, "Thank you, young men."

Wan Jinan, who was standing next to him, immediately reminded him, "Xie Ke, it's too early to say anything now. Song Chaoge, after we put you down later, don't forget to give me the Red Lotus Sword."

"What?" Meng Yu's eyes widened. "You want to give them the Red Lotus Sword?"

Song Chaoge said helplessly, "There's nothing I can do. I don't have any money, so I can only use my sword. Besides, these are all external possessions of ours. We can't bring them with us when we're born, and we can't take them with us when we die, right?"

After saying this, he pulled out the Red Lotus Sword from his storage ring. The sword gleamed dazzlingly in the sunlight. He handed the sword to Wan Jinan and said seriously, "Master Wan Feng, thank you very much."

Wan Jin'an frowned slightly, scrutinizing Song Chaoge. "We haven't even put you down yet, and you're giving me the sword?" His voice was filled with distrust. "Are you trying to cheat me again?"

Song Chaoge shook his head helplessly: "No, it's just that the mountains to the north are the territory of the ice dragon, it won't let us go. You can just drop us off at the foot of the mountains later."

Wan Jinan rubbed his chin in confusion. "Why? Why don't you just tell me your destination and I'll be kind enough to take you there? They won't be able to catch up anytime soon anyway."

"There's a vortex above Yinshang Ridge. Swords can't pass through it, not even the Senluo Qinghe can. You can only walk through it. But the Ice Dragon won't allow anyone to enter the northern mountains. Anyone who passes through there will die."

When Chu Ying heard this, she immediately asked curiously, "Why?"

Meng Yu explained, "The ice dragon was originally a divine beast. Due to divine punishment for its mistakes, it was bound to the northern mountains of Yinshang Ridge by iron chains. It was very proud and didn't want anyone to see it tied up, so it made a strict rule: anyone who dared to set foot on the northern mountains would be killed. So later, you can just drop us off at the foot of the northern mountains and don't go up with us."

Jiang Yingxue immediately realized: "So from the beginning, you had no intention of leaving alive. Are you going to commit suicide for love?"

Meng Yu nodded: "I'm going to die anyway, so I might as well be buried in the white snow with the one I love most."

Wan Jinan said with some guilt, "Then I held the sword a little... too easily..."

Everyone fell silent after hearing this.

After a while, Jiang Yingxue looked at Meng Yu and asked, "Aren't you unwilling to accept this? If I were you, and I were persecuted like this, I would take a few of you with me even if I died."

Meng Yu's eyes instantly turned red: "But what can I do..."

"Perhaps, we can discuss this with the Ice Dragon?"

On the other side, the dust cleared and Yan Dongsheng finally discovered that Meng Yu was missing.

"Where's Meng Yu? Where's she?!" He frantically glanced around, his gaze sweeping across every corner like a knife, but all he saw was the empty desert and the occasional passing sandstorm. Unease washed over him like a tide. His heart sank, and then he realized he'd been tricked. "I was wondering why these black snakes would attack us for no reason. That bitch Meng Yu must have hired a master! No, maybe it was that Sword Ghost!"

After saying that, he hurriedly urged Huo Cheng: "Old Huo, now that the person has escaped, what should we do?"

"Don't worry, Young Master Yan. We have people guarding the north, south, and east. She can't escape. And if she runs away from her marriage, we have a good opportunity to bring her to justice. The only other option is to run to the Yinchang Ridge in the west. Once they reach the Yinchang Ridge, they can only walk. And the Yinchang Ridge is divided into the North Ridge and the South Ridge. As long as they enter the southern mountains, my wolf pack can immediately control them."

"What if they went to the northern mountains?"

Huo Cheng's eyes darkened, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, as if he was looking forward to what was about to happen: "The ice dragon is guarding the northern mountains. If they force their way in, they will be walking into a trap and committing suicide."

At this moment, a soldier pointed at the Senluo Blue Crane in the distance and shouted, "Young Master Yan, look! Why is there a blue crane in the desert? And there seems to be someone on its back, wearing red clothes. It seems to be the Madam!"

"No need to say it's like, it is!" Yan Dongsheng gritted his teeth and said.

Huo Cheng looked at the direction Qing He was heading and frowned: "Oh, that direction, isn't it Yinshang Ridge? It really is rushing to die."

Seeing this, Yan Dongsheng's face darkened. He turned to the few surviving soldiers and ordered, "You all, return to the city immediately and inform the head of the family that Miss Meng has escaped to Yinchang Ridge with a wild man. Tell them to take immediate action."

After saying this, he, Huo Cheng, and several Gumeng Clan members drew their swords and flew towards Yinchang Ridge. He had a fierce look on his face and said, "Let's go collect their bodies."
