Traveling through another world to stir the emperor's heart
Chapter 173 Night Figure
Feng Qingyue hesitated for a moment, but finally gave up her resistance and obediently let Jun Lingyuan hold her in his arms.
There was silence in the air for a long time.
Jun Lingyuan broke the silence: "Tomorrow, we should be able to reach Mingying Mountain. Have you thought about the next plan?"
Feng Qingyue pondered for a moment and slowly said, "I plan to take advantage of the night to investigate first, and then make a decision after understanding the situation clearly." Her words revealed a sense of courage and calmness.
Jun Lingyuan nodded slightly to show his agreement.
The next evening, the sun set and the afterglow dyed the sky orange and red.
Feng Qingyue and her group finally arrived at the small town at the foot of Mingying Mountain in the evening.
The town is quiet and simple, as if hiding endless secrets.
"Brother Jinyu, everyone is tired from the journey. Let's find a place to settle down and have a good rest." Feng Qingyue said to Chen Jinyu in a soft tone.
In the town, everyone quickly found a place to stay and made arrangements.
Feng Qingyue, Jun Lingyuan and Chen Jinyu sat around the table.
"Brother Jinyu, I'm going out tonight, please make arrangements for everyone first."
"Ayue, what did you just say?" Chen Jinyu asked in disbelief with a serious expression.
Feng Qingyue's eyes were firm, and her tone left no room for doubt: "Brother Jinyu, Jun Lingyuan and I plan to sneak into Mingying Mountain tonight to investigate. After we understand the situation, we will discuss the specific actions."
As soon as the words fell, Chen Jinyu, Lan Mo and others almost simultaneously raised their voices of objection: "No!"
Chen Jinyu stared at Feng Qingyue anxiously, his brows furrowed in anxiety. "Ayue, this is too dangerous! We know nothing about the situation in Mingying Mountain. What if something unexpected happens if we act rashly?"
Feng Qingyue smiled faintly and comforted him softly, "Brother Jinyu, after spending some time together, you understand me. I'm no longer the An Qingyue of the past, but I still have the ability to protect myself."
However, Chen Jinyu was still deeply worried, his brows furrowed. After a moment of silence, he still hesitated: "But..."
At this moment, Jun Lingyuan, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke.
His deep eyes looked directly at Chen Jinyu, and his voice was calm and firm: "Mr. Chen, please rest assured. I am here to protect her."
Chen Jinyu looked at the two people in front of him, silent for a long time, and finally nodded slightly. Although his tone was a little heavy, he still insisted: "Okay, but you must make sure you return safely."
Feng Qingyue nodded slightly and responded softly.
Afterwards, Feng Qingyue and Jun Lingyuan changed into black night clothes, looking like two black shadows.
They silently leaped onto the roof, transformed into two ghostly figures, and quickly rushed towards the direction of Mingying Mountain.
At the same time, in a magnificent mansion, a woman stared at the man sitting above her and whispered, "Young Master, the king has sent the prime minister south, and according to reliable information, they seem to have discovered the existence of ore." Her face was solemn and her tone was filled with anxiety.
Hearing this, the man's eyes flashed with a cold light, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, and he sneered softly: "I have been looking forward to this moment for a long time."
A sinister glint flickered in his eyes, as if he were awaiting some carefully planned moment. "I want to see what expression that high and mighty monarch will have when he learns of all this. I'm truly filled with anticipation."
Then, the man looked up, his eyes filled with anger and resentment. He gritted his teeth and said, "Father, little sister, did you see that? These people treated us like this. They were the ones who were so unkind and unjust first. Why should I be soft-hearted? I will make sure that everyone involved in this incident will be buried with you!"
The man was silent for a moment and continued: Since things have developed to this point, why don’t you just let go and do it?
Throw out all the ore, let those people suffer, and fall into hell together!
A sneer flashed in the man's eyes: "They pretended to know nothing at the time. Now, let them suffer the consequences."
Ali nodded: "Okay! I'll arrange it right away."
The man stared ahead, his eyes as cold as ice: "I want to see who can stop me this time!"
"Yingchen, do you really want to do this?" Ali asked softly, her face filled with worry. "Some people are innocent."
The man sneered, his expression growing even colder. "Innocent? When my entire family was exterminated, who stood up for us? Who stood up for justice?"
His voice grew increasingly agitated, his hands clenched into fists, his entire body trembling. "Our clan has dedicated themselves to them, protecting them for a hundred years, yet all we get in return is this merciless slaughter!"
Before he finished speaking, his eyes were already filled with madness and loss of control.
Seeing this, Ali hurried forward and gently comforted him, "Okay, Yingchen, don't get excited. Just do as you say."
The man slumped into his chair like a deflated ball, the emotion in his eyes gradually fading as tears streamed down his cheeks.
He murmured softly, "Father, Mother, Little Sister...After I have my revenge, I will come to find you and reunite with you."
After a long while, the man calmed down a little, turned to Ali and said, "You should leave first. I want to be alone for a while."
Ali nodded, turned around and left without saying anything, closing the door.
Inside the house, only the lonely and resolute figure of the man remained, and the air was filled with endless sorrow and hatred.
……
On the outskirts, Feng Qingyue softly asked, "Ling Yuan, you've been to Dark Shadow Mountain before. Do you have any knowledge of its terrain?"
Jun Lingyuan frowned slightly, and said in a steady tone: "Mingying Mountain is not an ordinary mountain. There is a mysterious organization hidden in the mountain, and no one knows its true identity to this day."
He paused and continued, "What's even more bizarre is that no one has ever seen a member of this organization in person."
Because in order to get into the core area of the mountains, one needs to go through countless difficulties and obstacles, which is simply beyond the reach of ordinary people.
Feng Qingyue's eyes flashed with shock, and she murmured softly, "I never thought that Mingying Mountain would hide such an unfathomable secret."
She then turned to Jun Lingyuan and asked, "Have you ever been there in person?"
Jun Lingyuan shook his head slightly and replied calmly, "I heard someone was lurking around Dark Shadow Mountain. I mistakenly thought it was you, so I hurried here to investigate."
After hearing this, Feng Qingyue felt a surge of warmth in her heart. She looked at Jun Lingyuan affectionately and said softly, "Lingyuan, thank you for your persistence."
Jun Lingyuan smiled slightly and responded gently: "Qingyue, your gratitude is of no importance to me. My only hope is that you can be safe and sound."
Feng Qingyue nodded, her eyes gleaming with determination as she responded, "Yes! May we both be safe."
