Marrying a concubine and swallowing her dowry? The mistress turns around and marries a high-ranking

Chapter 561

Fu Shiyan paused noticeably and staggered slightly.

Mo Zhonggui immediately seized the opportunity and rushed forward. At this moment, his musket was out of bullets, so he simply unleashed a palm strike as powerful as splitting mountains and shattering rocks, aiming at Fu Shiyan!

But at that very moment, a shell landed below the platform where Shen Lingjun was, shattering all the pillars, and the entire platform collapsed along with the people and the building!

Mount Naihe is a steep and rugged place, with little flat land on either the front or back of the mountain. Most of the buildings in Naihe are built on stilts on steep slopes or even cliffs.

The place where Shen Lingjun fell was not a bottomless abyss, but it was a deep valley full of rocks. If she fell in, she would be crippled even if she didn't die!

Mo Zhonggui turned around and saw Shen Lingjun falling into the valley. His expression changed drastically, and he turned around and pounced on Shen Lingjun!

His palm strike had already been launched, but because he withdrew, the force of the strike did not land properly and instead went astray.

Although Fu Shiyan couldn't dodge in time, he only took a blow to the shoulder, and it wasn't too severe. He was knocked to the side by the blow, and then he flipped over on the spot and disappeared into the thick smoke in the blink of an eye.

Mo Zhonggui disregarded the talisman master banquet and chased after Shen Lingjun without hesitation. Amidst a pile of falling broken pillars and shattered wood, he reached out and grabbed Shen Lingjun!

At this moment, both of them were already in mid-air. But upon seeing this, the experts from the Eastern Depot above immediately threw down ropes.

Mo Zhonggui grabbed the rope, used the momentum to swing, and landed on the mountainside next to Shen Lingjun.

At this moment, when they looked back at the place, Fu Shiyan was nowhere to be seen.

Shen Lingjun was still in shock and instinctively clung tightly to Mo Zhonggui's clothes.

Mo Zhonggui led her back to the open space on the mountaintop above.

Mo Zhonggui ordered the people around him: "Spread the news of Fu Shiyan's defeat and escape, sweep Naihe Mountain, and search the entire mountain for any trace of Fu Shiyan."

Although his palm strike just now didn't kill Fu Shiyan, it was certainly enough to inflict a serious injury on him.

With Naihe Mountain already breached and Fu Shi Yan injured, the situation was hopeless. Anyone with a clear head would prioritize their own escape and not show up to lead the people of "Naihe".

Since we've paid such a high price to breach Mount Naihe, we should just wipe it out completely.

"Naihe" has existed for thirty or forty years and has a profound history. There must be many good things in Naihe Mountain, so this can be considered a harvest.

The members of the Eastern Depot obeyed their orders and left, leaving only Shen Lingjun and Mo Zhonggui on the hilltop, while the surrounding artillery fire gradually subsided.

Shen Lingjun had been watching Mo Zhonggui with trepidation, and finally spoke cautiously, trying to explain to him.

"I... I did indeed cure Fu Shi Yan of the Feather Poison, but at the time he already had a formula to suppress the poison, which required killing many people a day to raise Gu worms and make medicine. I felt that since he wasn't going to die anyway, it wouldn't be a good thing to waste so many lives for him, so I simply cured him of the poison..."
