Chapter 182 The Chaotic World

In a cave near the sinkhole of Chahanbu, Wuyue slowly opened his eyes around the same time. He

felt pain, but he couldn't move anywhere. The firelight flickered before his eyes, dazzling yet blurry.

A hazy figure sobbed and called out. Her words had shocked him. How could his pure and kind

sister have thought of becoming an assassin? Had Meihua taught her to say that? Was it to make him understand that

being an assassin was a legitimate profession, one that was necessary for survival?

Li'er's words angered him, and he wanted to teach her a lesson, to tell her directly that she couldn't do this! But upon reflection, he realized that

a rigid lecture and reasoning were not as effective as appealing to her emotions. This was a lesson he had learned from his failed attempt to educate Qing'er.

So he told Li'er about his past, to make her understand how bad and cruel the profession of an assassin was. Right now,

she was still crying; he didn't know if she had listened.

The terrifying scene of tumbling down the steep cliff replayed in his mind. The world spun, and tree trunks, rocks, and

thorns spun faster and faster! His body kept crashing into hard objects, and he could almost hear the cracking

sounds of bones breaking inside him. His heart clenched!

Was he still alive? Was he still conscious only because his soul was still intact?

The surroundings were chaotic, and the raging fire was like a raging inferno, scorching his soul. His spirit seemed to have been ripped from

his body, no longer under his control, and he could not move at all.

He tried to widen his eyes, but he could not focus. It felt like a nightmare; he had consciousness, but could not control anything

! Tears dripped onto his face, wet and hot, and the voice calling him grew louder and louder, "Wuyue,

wake up! Don't scare me! Waaah..."

No, this was not Li'er's voice, but Harina's...

He didn't know how much time had passed, but after struggling, he finally saw something clearly. It was indeed her,

looking at him with tearful eyes, calling out to him incessantly.

"Harina, it really is you! Are you alright? That's so good!" He cried out in his heart, though he wasn't sure if

the words came out. A huge weight was lifted from his heart; he had been so worried these past few days that she had been harmed by those ruthless

executioners .

"Yes, it's me! You're finally awake! You scared me to death!" She was still sobbing.

Wuyue struggled to say, "I remember trying to roll off the cliff to avoid falling into the hands of the Embroidered Robe Pavilion,

and then I don't know anything else. How did you get here? How did you find me?"

Harina briefly recounted her experiences over the past few days. That night, she managed to lure her pursuers away,

fleeing towards the western grasslands. To keep them as far away as possible, she stopped and started along the way, using her familiarity with the terrain

to play hide-and-seek with them. However, as dawn broke, she could no longer find a suitable place to hide, and the assassins

gradually caught up with her.

Seeing that she couldn't escape and was growing increasingly anxious, a masked woman in white descended from the sky like a celestial maiden scattering flowers.

Without a word, she intercepted the men in black and began to fight them! This woman was incredibly skilled; even the most ruthless assassins

in black seemed somewhat afraid of her

. However, relying on their superior numbers, they still swarmed forward and engaged her in fierce combat.

The woman in white was ruthless and fearless, sometimes willing to take

a sword ! After killing more than ten men in black, the leader, seeing that he couldn't gain any advantage, whistled

and led the rest of his men away.

Once the men in black had disappeared, the woman in white collapsed to the ground, seemingly seriously injured! She rushed

forward, checking the white-clad woman's injuries as she said, "Thank you so much for saving my life! Your injuries are serious.

Let me gather some herbs to bandage you first, then come back with me to recuperate."

The white-clad woman looked at her, seemed startled, and silently struggled to climb onto the back of a giant eagle.

Seeing the white-clad woman swaying precariously, she chased after her to stop her, but the woman pushed her away. Then, the giant eagle pushed off the ground with its

claws and flew away!

"Wait!" Wuyue interrupted her, urgently asking, "A giant eagle? What kind of giant eagle?"

Harina frowned, recalling, "A giant golden eagle. I've never seen one so big before. It's very powerful and

can even help that white-clad woman fight!"

"What weapon does that white-clad woman use? What does she look like?" Wuyue asked anxiously.

"A sharp curved knife, it looks very heavy..." She then described the white-clad woman's appearance in detail

, except for her facial features, which she couldn't describe because she was veiled.

Overjoyed, Wuyue wept, murmuring to himself, "Sister Beifeng, it must be her! She really woke up, hahaha!!

Thank goodness, Plum Blossom, I love you! You truly are a savior of suffering, the venerable and lovable Plum Blossom Goddess!

When I get back, I will definitely build a shrine for you and enshrine the statue of the Plum Blossom Goddess! But... ugh~ she's right here in our house,

why bother with another statue? Never mind, once the temple is built, I'll put her on the throne and worship her all the time... Hmm, what if she

pesters me to do things right here? That wouldn't be good in the temple..."

Thinking of Plum Blossom's good appetite, he really had a headache! Then he thought of Sister Beifeng's old wounds not yet healed, and now she had new ones,

and he couldn't help but worry greatly, but given his current condition, what could he do?

Harina, seeing his face flushed red, his expression one of utter madness, so different from his usual gentle,

composed , asked in surprise, "What? You know her?"

Wuyue sighed deeply, his emotions beyond words, and said, "Know her? She's more than just someone I know! She's

my dearest and most respected sister, Beifeng! It's truly tragic and lamentable that you missed her!"

Harina looked regretful. Had she known this would happen, she would have tried her best to keep her, but Beifeng was

so In her serious injury, a single push sent her sprawling. How could she possibly stop Beifeng?

She continued, recalling that after Beifeng left, she rushed home, still worried about Wuyue whose foot injury hadn't healed.

She told her parents she was going to visit a friend in Chahan tribe and might stay for quite a while. Her father asked how long it would take.

She said perhaps ten days or half a month, perhaps half a year, she couldn't say for sure, it depended on the situation.

Her son was serving in the Xuanfu cavalry, and now she was leaving again. Her parents were very reluctant to let her go, but they couldn't persuade her otherwise. They

prepared a large amount of necessary items for her long journey and gave her earnest advice on various precautions for traveling alone. After leaving home,

she followed the clues left by the group of men in black, tracking them all the way. After six days and six nights, she finally found them...

She caught up with the group of men in black along the Hu'er River in the eastern part of the Chahan Grassland; the men in embroidered robes were also among them.

The group crossed the river on their own, storming into the territory of the Yehe tribe, and by nightfall had set up camp

seven or eight miles ! She hid in a nearby dense forest, settled her horses, and closely monitored the group

's every move, mainly to find out if Wuyue had been captured. If she had unfortunately fallen into the clutches of the tigers, she could find a way to rescue her.

The next day, Lord Li entered Yehe Fortress with several men in embroidered robes. She wondered what business

he had with the two fortress lords. Judging from the attitude of the guards at the east and west gates, he seemed quite familiar with the two lords. After spending

about half an hour with each of them, he left Yehe Fortress and returned to his camp.

That night, around midnight, she was awakened in the forest by a commotion. She quickly opened her eyes; it was

pitch black all around, except for the tents of the men in black, which were brightly lit by dozens of torches.

Seeing their hasty mounting, could there be some movement from Wuyue in Yehebao? She tensed up immediately,

following the men in black at a distance, chasing northwards.

More than an hour later, the group of men in black intercepted a carriage and more than ten

Yehe knights on the south bank of the Huer River to the north. From afar, they saw a middle-aged man in white robes, who looked like a steward, jump out of the carriage and

talk to Lord Li for a long time with gestures, seemingly saying that he had urgent business to attend to and had to go far away. Lord Li made some perfunctory pleasantries,

and had no choice but to lead his men back dejectedly, continuing to closely monitor the movements in Yehebao.

During those days, she had been hiding in the dense forest, feeling both bored and anxious, not knowing where Wuyue had gone.

Until the afternoon before yesterday, several burly men came from the east. Judging from their clothing, they were probably Jurchens from Liaodong, riding tall horses

straight towards Lord Li's tent. She was very puzzled. The Qianxi Dynasty and the Liaodong Jurchens were already irreconcilable enemies, with constant conflicts on

the border . How could people from both sides be secretly communicating?

She soon found the answer. Perhaps for secrecy, the burly Liaodong Jurchen leader pulled

Lord to the edge of the dense forest to discuss matters. Coincidentally, they were not far from her hiding place, and she could faintly

hear their conversation!

Lord Li also spoke Jurchen, though not fluently. They gestured wildly, seemingly discussing a

deal. After listening for a while, she learned that the burly man was named Haige, from the Liaodong Jurchen tribe of Sharbao, and that

Lord was actually the deputy commander of the Qianxi Dynasty's Embroidered Robe Pavilion, named Li Tianxiu. And the bargaining chip they wanted to use was Xiao Wuyue

!

She was overjoyed! Overjoyed that Wuyue, despite his injuries, had managed to escape thousands of miles to the Liaodong Jurchen tribe with Qing'er

; overwhelmed with astonishment, the person he wanted to seek refuge with was right there—why would they betray him?

Why so heartless, betraying their own brothers for money?

Hagrid's asking price seemed high, putting Li Tianxiu in a difficult position, but they ultimately decided to go through with the deal. The transaction

would take place in this dense forest. Li Tianxiu would be responsible for sending people to gather the treasure, while Hagrid would return to secretly deliver the hostages to the

forest . He repeatedly reminded Li Tianxiu that this matter must not be leaked.

After the two left, she became more familiar with the terrain and considered

the options. Coming from Sharburg, Black Mountain was the only way through, but there were two routes: one was via a winding mountain path , which was shorter but difficult to traverse 　　　;

the other was to go south around Black Mountain, crossing forests and swamps, which was longer

but much easier.
