Chapter 956 – Maze
Mu Rong Xin Nuo collected herself and retracted the gaze she had locked onto Nan Gong Bei Cheng; her face blushed before she lowered her head, “I did not…”
“Right, did not, not at all. All that is lacking is to apply glue for you to stick your eyes on Young Master Nan Gong, hahaha… eh! That person that flew by looked like Ji Mo Ya? He looked like he was in a hurry, where is he going?”
Ji Mo Ya was just pa.s.sing by. This place was an unavoidable road to the city gates after coming down from the Holy Mountain.
Ji Mo Ya’s ma.s.sive search party did not escape the eyes of the King Spirit Masters.
A King Spirit Master from the Ji Mo Clan called out to Ji Mo Ya, “Little Ya, what are you looking for?”
“Replying to Elder, nothing.”
After he spoke, he quickly left with the Feather Guards.
Nan Gong Bei Cheng’s brow twitched when he saw this, he immediately followed Ji Mo Ya without a word.

From the second day onward, Huan Qing Yan started to become picky.
“This stone cabin is too boring, I am not in the mood to eat, I am taking a stroll…”
The mute girls were only responsible for her daily necessities and had no authority to let her out, that was why they went to call the aunties.
Fat Auntie and Auntie Ma did not say anything and brought her out.
Only then did Huan Qing Yan found out how deep and complex was the mountain cavern.
It was comparable to the underground city of the Gnome Kingdom she had visited, Huan Qing Yan observed her surroundings as she walked.
“Lady, this place is absolutely safe, the walls have all been specially modified to block divine sense. Even if a King Spirit Master pa.s.ses by, he will also not be able to detect us…” Auntie Ma smiled.
Huan Qing Yan’s expression stiffened, she had thought that her sense could not be sent up because there was a barrier around the room. To think that it was the entire cavern that had been shielded.
“Also Lady, this cavern is a maze with a natural spell formation that made it very suitable for living in seclusion. Outsiders cannot come in, and if a person from inside wants to go out, someone will need to guide them! Even the two maids and us aunties were unable to leave this place.” Fat Auntie added.
They saw Huan Qing Yan’s expression stiffened again and smiled happily.
Huan Qing Yan could not believe it, they must be deceiving her, how can that be possible?
After walking through another winding pa.s.sage, they arrived at a place filled with stalact.i.tes, the two aunties stopped, “Okay Lady, let us stop here today. This place is very open, you can stay here to see the scenery, we will return after you are done.”
Huan Qing Yan glanced about and saw that there was no underground river or anything similar.
Auntie Ma smiled and said, “Lady do not belittle these stalact.i.tes, they were all sources of spring water, they come from those mice size holes. As there are no wide underground river here, these can prevent strangers from reaching us through the water.”
Dammit, another path was blocked again.
If she wants to save herself, there was only one way left!
Find a safe place with complex terrain to hide in the dimension first.
Huan Qing Yan came to a nearby spring water outlet the size of a fist, clear spring water was flowing out of it. Huan Qing Yan cupped some water and washed her face.
“How refreshing!”
Fat Auntie said, “Right? The spring water is refreshing, but a bit too cold. A pregnant woman should refrain from contacting too much of it.”
Huan Qing Yan patiently replied, “Understand, let us take a look at that stalact.i.te, it looks pretty good, let’s bring some back as decoration.”
