Meanwhile, Wu Huan set out of Chu at the slightest ray of the sun early in the morning. Apart from the failed clues he had gotten, Wu Huan was sure that there was one other person who might know where Yin Xue Yue was. He had left immediately before Shao Wen, Xiang Jun or Nan Cheng could wake up. By the time they woke up and realized that Wu Huan wasn't there, they all panicked searching the entire manor until they finally found a note from Wu Huan where he told them where he was going. Riding until he got to the East border where they had grown up, Wu Huan reached the gate of the border village and stopped watching as the gate opened. Unlike what others might think, they didn't have any friends or people they might know at the village where they had grew up. This was because they had always been locked at the training camp and they never even knew that people snuck in and night to clean the place until they had grown up. Wu Huan knew that the people must have been worried. What type

Before the assassin could reach Zhao Yao, Zhao Yao saw the assassin yell in pain as he fell to the ground. Seeing this, Dai Chan turned her gaze immediately looking as the head of the crime department walked in. Dai Chan's personal maid who had been there gasped in shock as she saw the head of the crime department enter inside. “Are you okay?” The head of the crime department asked as he entered inside walking to Zhao Yao who was still holding Huanxing trying to calm him down. “I am. Are you hurt Sister Dai?” Zhao Yao asked worried about Dai Chan as she walked up to where Dai Chan and her personal maid were standing. Both Dai Chan and her personal maid stopped in shock as they heard Zhao Yao call Dai Chan her sister. Zhao Yao saw the look on their faces that realized what she said. Bringing her eyes down, Zhao Yao walked over to where Dai Chan was and handed Huanxing back to her before returning back to the head of the crime department. “How did you know I was in danger?” Zhao Yao

Wu Huan continued to climb down the long stairs that led down till he reached the ground. Coming off the leader, Wu Huan stayed still as he looked around his dark surroundings trying to listen to if there was something around him before he put on some light so he could see. Listening for a few minutes, Wu Huan noticed there was nothing and quickly reached into his sleeve bringing out a fire box. Putting it on, Wu Huan looked around seeing it was like an underground cave. Since it was rare to ever see one, Wu Huan wondered where it led to. He had found an underground cave and it was most likely that the deed that Duke Fenghao had for the ancestral land was somewhere in the cave. Rather than exploring on his own, Wu Huan decided to wait until he was able to follow Duke Fenghao down here. The cave was so big and he had no idea what to expect so it was safer for him to wait a little. Turning around, Wu Huan proceeded to try climbing up when he heard someone come into the room. Immediatel

Wu Huan entered inside and hugged Duke Fenghao's butler immediately making him suprised. Although he had been angry and suspicious of Wu Huan before, everything died immediately he saw Wu Huan hugging him as he thought Wu Huan was grieving his mother. “Don't miss your mother too bad. Bringing flowers and going to visit her, you have paid your filial respect." Duke Fenghao's butler said. Wu Huan raised his head a little as he wondered what was Duke Fenghao's butler was talking about. Just then, he was reminded of the fact that he had lied to Duke Fenghao's butler when he was going out. Not staying a word, Wu Huan continued to hug him out of relief. He had not expected it make it out in time. After wandering around the cave, he had almost gotten into trouble as he saw Duke Fenghao himself waiting by a corner. Because of that, he returned taking another path through the cave. It had been a long journey but he managed to make it back to the first shortcut. How he had managed to do it,

“I don't really know what happened. When I realized that the prime minister had come in barging with his men, I wanted to move Wu Huan out of the cave. I untied him thinking that he was very weak and that I could move him without any problems. Just then, I was suprised when he actually defeated me. I was knocked unconscious and he escaped.” Duke Fenghao heard his bodyguard say and his eyes widened. “Are you actually telling me that Wu Huan is somewhere in that cave and that he is actually free?” Duke Fenghao asked before turning to look through the door. Meanwhile, Zhi Hao rode back in his carriage and returned back to his house. Just as he was about to enter, Zhi Hao stopped when he heard noises making him turn. Widening his eyes, Zhi Hao rushed immediately . “Lemme help you. How did you leave the cave?” Zhi Hao asked Wu Huan. “Aren't you the one who left the door open? I was able to leave thanks to you. If you hadn't waited, I won't have been able to enter your carriage.” Wu Hua
