Of course, Mu Hanyan was only tempted, after all, according to Jiang Yuzhe, Yan Yuchu's strength was much higher than hers. Her main purpose is to rescue Mu Ziqing. As for the exercises, let's see if there is a chance. If not, she will not force it.
Xiushui City is only three hundred miles away from Xiaoyang City. With the strength of Mu Hanyan swordsman in the middle stage of the ninth rank, it only took more than an hour to arrive. Looted towards the city lord's mansion.
…
Mu Hanyan didn't know that at the moment she sneaked into the city lord's mansion, two pairs of eyes were watching her in the darkness far away.
One of them, tall and handsome, looked at Mu Hanyan's figure with burning eyes, who else could it be if it wasn't Ye Lanyan? And the person behind Ye Lanyan was one of his subordinates, Zhou Binghai. He silently followed Ye Lanyan's side without saying a word. Although the lord didn't say anything, Zhou Binghai knew very well that the lord followed because he was worried about Mu Hanyan.
He didn't know what the lord was thinking about Mu Hanyan, and he wouldn't ask. All he has to do is follow the steps of the adults. Right or wrong, just follow him.
…
At midnight, the City Lord's Mansion was completely silent. Although there are some secret sentries hidden in the dark, they are not very powerful, at most no more than the third rank of swordsman. It is easy to avoid their eyes and ears with Mu Hanyan's skill, and it is easy to restrain one of them.
"Don't make a sound, or don't blame my sword for not having eyes." Mu Hanyan said coldly as she pressed her sword against the heart of a guard hiding in the dark.
The guard tensed up all over, and under the extremely faint starlight, he could clearly see the beads of sweat rolling down his tense cheeks.
"Where are the members of the Mu family?" Mu Hanyan asked in a deep voice.
"Are you looking for someone from the Mu family?" Hearing Mu Hanyan's next question, the guard's expression lightened significantly, and he asked with relief.
Seeing the changes in the guards, Mu Hanyan felt a little strange.
"You're talking about Mu Ziqing, right? He's in the inner palace. He's probably still drinking with the city lord right now. You just go in. No one will stop you." Didn't hear Mu Hanyan's answer, then The guard hurriedly added.
"Drinking?" Mu Hanyan was at a loss.
"That's right, Lord City Lord regards Young Master Mu as his honored guest. Apart from not being able to leave the City Lord's mansion, he serves good wine and good food every day, and he personally drinks with him to pass the time." The guard explained, and then said, "You are also Mu Mu. People from the family, the city lord has ordered that if someone from the Mu family finds it, there is no need to stop him, just lead him in."
Mu Hanyan turned her head to the side and took a closer look at the guard. No matter how you look at it, he doesn't seem to be lying, and I feel even more puzzled.
"If you don't believe me, I can lead you in, as long as you don't kill me." The guard was afraid that Mu Hanyan would kill him with a sword, so he volunteered.
Mu Hanyan had seen dead men cultivated by the family of the first generation. For the safety of the family, these dead men would give their lives without hesitation, but this one in front of him was obviously different from those dead men.
"Okay, you lead me in." Mu Hanyan said to the guard after thinking for a while.
If he wanted to survive, he just had to tell himself where Mu Ziqing was. The chances of survival were greater, and there was absolutely no need to take such a risk. After making sure that the other party was not a dead man of the family, Mu Hanyan chose to believe his words.
She just doesn't understand, what kind of tricks is this Yan Yuchu playing
