Chapter 1373: Chapter 1367

The female ghost followed along, initially thinking she could catch Xin Lin quickly, but in the blink of an eye, Xin Lin had disappeared.

"Where did she run off to?"

The female ghost wondered, searching around.

She did not bother with the lives or deaths of the people in the cave.

To the female ghost, they were nothing but food.

Anyway, she had already absorbed enough Ghost Energy; the most important thing now was to find that Summoning Master.

As long as she caught the Human Clan’s Summoning Master Xin Lin, she could threaten the Corpse King to get back her Fox Pill.

"Ziyue, this way, hurry up, that female ghost might return at any moment."

Near the cave, Xin Lin had already doubled back.

However, her appearance had also changed.

She transformed back into the appearance of the little girl Xin Lin, wary of the female ghost returning, and exited the cave with Murong Ziyue, who was carrying Wan Niang.

Her transformation was noticed only by Murong Ziyue; no one else realized it.

"Who is she?"

Wan Niang was also curious, observing Xin Lin.

"Mother, it’s a long story. Let’s escape first."

Murong Ziyue carried Wan Niang, looking around, trying to find a way to leave.

She didn’t plan to return to Fengdong.

If her mother returned to Fengdong, the Ghost Shiva’s people would surely force her to marry.

She wanted to take her mother far away, to a place where no one knew them, and settle down.

"Ziyue, you cannot leave Fengdong. You possess such talent; if you leave Fengdong, you will not only be hunted but also won’t be able to return to Qingtian Academy. Mother is going to die anyway; I cannot burden you."

Wan Niang struggled, trying to get down.

She was poisoned by Tu Suxia and could not live for many days; she knew they were no match for Tu Suxia.

"Mother, I won’t leave you to fend for yourself. You will not die; I will find a way to save you, even if it means asking Tu Suxia for help."

Murong Ziyue’s pretty face was full of determination.

"Going to Tu Suxia is akin to a lamb entering a tiger’s den, no way to return. Not just your mother, but even you would be lost."

Xin Lin said.

"But I can’t just watch my mother’s poison take hold without doing anything."

Murong Ziyue said in a low voice.

"I will think of a way to save Aunt Wan, but we need to ponder this solution carefully. Let’s leave first."

Xin Lin pondered.

"Where are you going! Murong Ziyue, so it was you. I wondered why you looked so familiar. How dare you try to sneak away. Wan Niang has already been promised to Tu Suxia and must marry him."

Unexpectedly, just as the three took a few steps, Zhao Tianming and a group of guards jumped out.

Zhao Tianming was told by those maids and nannies, only then realizing he had been deceived.

He was blinded by beauty and almost fell for Murong Ziyue’s trick.

Seeing the female ghost missing, Zhao Tianming, empowered by having more people, planned to capture Murong Ziyue and her mother.

"Zhao Tianming, get lost."

Murong Ziyue’s eyes shone fiercely.

"Seize them! Send the old one to Tu Suxia and keep the young one for my enjoyment. What a pity, that big beauty named Xin Lin is nowhere to be found."

Zhao Tianming clicked his tongue a few times.

That beauty was truly an extraordinary allure.

"Oh? You’re looking for her."

A soft ’poof’ sounded as the big beauty’s voice came right next to his ear.

Zhao Tianming was delighted; he looked around.

To his surprise, he saw a little girl standing not far away.

"You can’t be that big beauty, right? This is unreal! How can you suddenly shrink!"

Zhao Tianming was utterly shocked, blinking in disbelief.
