Chapter 488 A daring madman, quite the boast!
How can we sneak in unnoticed without removing these patrolling eyes?
Ha ha!
They did a good job, and the powder was good too!
The two figures nimbly swept into the courtyard and landed outside the house.
"Who?"
The room was pitch black; the woman was surprisingly alert.
Upon hearing the sound, Gu Qingyue unceremoniously pushed open the window and went inside, leaving Mu Yun Chu to guard outside.
In the dead of night, Mu Yun Chu naturally wouldn't enter another woman's room.
A moment later, a soft light illuminated the room.
It is Gu Qingyue's luminous pearl.
"Your name is Nian Yuwei?"
Gu Qingyue asked tentatively.
Who are you? How do you know my name?
In the soft light, Nian Yuwei's eyes narrowed, revealing her extremely pale face and a trace of blood at the corner of her mouth, as well as on her front.
It was clear that she hadn't had time to wash up or change clothes since the poison had subsided.
How miserable!
However, to Gu Qingyue's delight, she actually admitted her identity as the woman Mu Dong had been following.
"Never mind who I am, do you know Nian Yujiao?" Gu Qingyue asked.
Hearing the masked man's words, Nian Yuwei looked at her in surprise, "Are you here to find someone?"
She sat up from the couch, trembling, which made Gu Qingyue's lips twitch; she hadn't recovered yet.
"No, I know Nian Yujiao, I'm here to see you," Gu Qingyue suddenly changed the subject.
Nian Yuwei was stunned. "Looking for me?"
"Well, considering you and Nian Yujiao are from the same clan, I'll save you this time," Gu Qingyue said, sitting down at the table opposite her with her hands behind her back.
"Save me?" Nian Yuwei looked at the person in front of her who was obviously a young boy in disbelief, and a strange thought arose in her mind.
This Fairy Valley isn't a place anyone can just enter.
It's not that the Immortal Valley itself is particularly well-defended, but rather that the Great Rift Valley is surrounded by countless poisons, and ordinary people would perish before even reaching the Immortal Valley.
Apart from the secret passage that the Wizard's Temple had opened up for entry and exit, no outsider had ever broken in like this in all these years.
She said she came to save her? Why?
Over the years, apart from the Holy Maiden granting her permission once a year to return to the Tiger Clan's home to visit her mother.
She has absolutely no freedom!
I'm afraid that apart from my own mother, no one else in this world remembers that I even exist!
Even the person who showered you with sweet words years ago... probably doesn't remember you now!
Watching the woman sit quietly on the couch, her mind wandering aimlessly.
Gu Qingyue laughed, "Do you want to get out, to leave this man-eating place?"
"A place that eats people?!"
Nian Yuwei became wary. "Who exactly are you? The Holy Maiden is from the Wizarding Temple, and this is the Wizarding Temple's Immortal Valley. How dare you speak so arrogantly, saying that our Wizarding Temple is a place that eats people?!"
Gu Qingyue maintained her composed expression, giving Nian Yuwei a mocking look. "What do you think?"
Gu Qingyue stood up and walked closer to her. "I can help you leave here, free from being controlled by anyone, without worrying about any future troubles, and live freely. How about it?"
"You audacious madman, you have quite the nerve!" Nian Yuwei clenched her fist and sat up straight. Although she had no strength left, she didn't want to lose face.
"Heh---Whether he's a madman or not, you'll find out soon enough. Whether his tone is arrogant or not, you'll see how things turn out. As for whether this Immortal Valley is a place that devours people------"
Gu Qingyue paused, her eyes filled with disdain, "Just look at yourself, and you'll understand."
After saying that, Gu Qingyue turned and left.
Without hesitation.
She was actually gambling, betting that this woman would definitely want an opportunity to live freely.
"Wait a minute!"
Nian Yuwei watched the boy leave without any hesitation. She touched her chest, which was still aching slightly, and steeled herself to speak.
Perhaps this is the last chance God has given me?
"What do you want me to do?" Nian Yuwei asked directly.
This young man must have some conditions; otherwise, why would he come looking for me? He should just do what he needs to do.
Fifteen minutes later, Gu Qingyue came out of Nian Yuwei's room, which was now completely dark again.
Nian Yuwei changed her clothes and sat down at the table. She felt a little uneasy, but she didn't regret it.
Gu Qingyue, carrying Mu Yun Chu, flew out of the courtyard, found Yue Ling and Mu Dong who were still secretly investigating, gave them some instructions, and then headed northeast into the valley.
The Holy Maiden's residence, the Ink Feather Palace, is right here.
Upon arriving near the Moyu Palace, Gu Qingyue and her companion naturally did not rush in.
As she released her spiritual power, she had Mu Yun Chu take her powerful sleeping potion and walk around outside the main hall.
Mu Yun Chu's speed can be described as divine.
He went around killing seven people, drugging three others, and one committed suicide.
Gu Qingyue's lips twitched.
She had just looked around the main hall. The saintess was asleep; the bed curtains were drawn, and she could hear breathing inside. It must be the saintess.
There were two guards inside the room, four guards outside the door, and two more on the roof.
The others were patrolling the yard.
The people he just dealt with were from the outer courtyard.
The people in the inner courtyard have not yet been alerted.
This saintess is indeed afraid of death!
Look at this, it's almost like they're having someone sleep under the bed to guard it.
But it doesn't matter, she's determined to meet her tonight.
She handed the people outside over to Mu Yun Chu, and Gu Qing Yue, as light as a swallow, arrived at the window on the side of the Holy Maiden.
"Holy Maiden! Holy Maiden! Something terrible has happened!" Suddenly, someone shouted loudly from outside the courtyard.
Gu Qingyue sighed softly; it seemed the Holy Maiden was about to wake up.
A sneak attack is definitely out of the question.
Hearing the sounds outside the courtyard, Mu Yun Chu flew directly onto the roof, naturally taking Gu Qing Yue by the waist and bringing her up with her.
As soon as she went up, Mu Yun Chu activated the Sky Ring, and two thin needles as sharp as ox awns flew out, heading towards the two guards sitting cross-legged on the roof. Like a stream of light in the dark night, they quickly flew in from the guards' foreheads and out from their backs.
In an instant, the two guards lay on the roof, silent and dead, their eyes wide open in death.
Not a sound was made.
Gu Qingyue's lips twitched; Mu Yun Chu's reaction was truly something else.
They were naturally prepared; the guards around the Holy Maiden Temple must be of high martial arts skill and status.
There's a high chance they've been infected with a loyalty curse, making them basically immune to sleeping potions, while poison might also cause a commotion.
Therefore, striking quickly and giving them no time to react is crucial.
If it's close combat, how can it not alert the bystanders?
The Clear Sky Ring is at its best right now.
In particular, the information she learned from Nian Yuwei about the Holy Maiden's guards meant they couldn't let their guard down.
Just as the two landed on the roof, the woman who had screamed pushed open the courtyard gate, looking as panicked as if she were being chased by a ghost.
