Chapter 364: Ghosts Never Leave

s forehead against hers, asking softly, "Xing'er, do you mean what you just said Can I really take it seriously"Mu Xing softly hummed in agreement.She couldn't feel her affection for her uncle, but wh...Approaching Qiong Yunshan, the helicopter began to descend gradually.

A sudden cry came, barely audible over the drone of the propellers. Mu Xing, however, was sensitive enough to catch it.

She raised an eyebrow and immediately went to look for the invincible figure, but she saw on the side of the mountain, a black spot wrapped in stars shooting out from the dense forest!

Mu Xing's heart jumped, "Brother Shen Lue, it's a cannonball, dodge quickly!"

Shen Lue immediately controlled the helicopter to dodge quickly. With this attack method, he immediately guessed who it was, and his eyes shot out a strong murderous intent!

This clueless newbie, they're really persistent! They actually ambushed them here!

He turned the turret, aimed at the mountain where the shells were coming from, and pressed the button.

"Bang!"

A precise artillery shell struck the mountaintop, and with a deafening boom, a fire erupted instantly!

The other party refused to be outdone, relentlessly fighting back.

And the invincible, circling above the mountain peaks, kept moving with it.

Shen Lue saw that Wu Di was helping him with positioning, his expression stern. He controlled the machine gun, following its flight path and constantly firing shells.

The black wolf, shouldering a sniper rifle, ran through the woods, dodging the relentless bombardment. He cursed incessantly, "Damn it! You said you'd help me get out of the Imperial City, but you keep using me as cannon fodder!"

The explosion shook the heavens!

The attention of all the squad members hidden in Qingyun Mountain was drawn to it.

The captain was observing the situation through his binoculars, while he held a Bluetooth headset and reported to Sir Stuart. Taking advantage of everyone's momentary relaxation, a black figure stealthily infiltrated Qingyun Mountain...

"Withdraw."

A low, guttural voice came from the headset. Black Wolf holstered his sniper rifle and quickly descended the mountain.

He no longer pursued the invincible, flying toward Qingyun Mountain.

Mu Xing knew the ambushers had already escaped. He glanced at the fiery forest, then retracted his gaze, "Let's go."

Soon, a helicopter landed in the clearing in front of the stone house.

Mu Xing entered the house and took her medicinal herb gathering tools. She immediately led Shen Lue into the mountains. She had promised her uncle she'd be back before noon, so she had to make time.

As she walked deeper into the mountains, she could clearly feel that there were people hiding all around her, and it wasn't just a few.

Shen Lue naturally noticed this, looking at the little girl with tightly furrowed brows. Before he could speak, she suddenly raised her hand.

"Bang!"

The sickle sank deep into the tree trunk, followed immediately by a startled cry: "Miss Mu Xing! We were sent by Lord Fu to protect you!"

A soldier in a camouflage uniform trembled as he peeked out from the bushes. Just now, if he had been even 0.00001 seconds slower, he would have been lining up at the Naihe Bridge right now.

Mu Xing looked at the battle-worn soldiers and apologized with a smile, "I'm sorry, but you protect, you protect, why hide and seek"

"To facilitate observation of the enemy situation, our people are all over the mountain. Miss Mu Xing, please rest assured."

The combatant retrieved the sickle from the tree, handing it back to Mu Xing, and then concealed it again.

Upon arriving in the mountains, Mu Xing immediately began collecting herbs.

Shen Lue stood beside her, paying attention to the slightest movement of the wind and grass. Even though the mountain was full of people from Canglong, he couldn't be careless. He had a feeling that the just attack was a feint.

Mùxīng was collecting medicine when she suddenly saw a deer eating grass in the distance. Her eyes lit up instantly.

Reindeer blood is great for replenishing vitality and promoting blood circulation, removing blood stasis. My uncle's body is so weak, I just hunted some back to help him recover!

She lowered the snakeskin bag and, crouching low, crept closer.

Shen Lue followed slowly behind, watching the little girl shrink her body and move with such careful cuteness. A deep smile couldn't help but appear in his eyes.

Mu Xing seized the opportune moment and swiftly darted toward Lu Xi, a black figure suddenly leaping out of thin air, brandishing a dagger and lunging at her!

The incident happened so suddenly, Mu Xing could only try her best to dodge. As she watched the dagger heading towards her arm, a pale hand reached out from behind her and grabbed the dagger.

And she was held in his arms, her whole body nestled against him.

Mu Xing was stunned for just a moment before immediately drawing out her silver needles and flinging them at the man in black.

The man in black dodged to the side, and Shen Lue took the opportunity to quickly retreat backward with Mu Xing in his arms.

At the same time, hidden soldiers surrounded the black-clad man, brandishing their guns and opening fire.

Gunshots echoed through the mountains, but Mu Xing had no time to pay attention. She lowered her head to check Shen Lue's hand.

Shen Lue clutched his hand behind his back, smiling nonchalantly. “It’s nothing, just a minor injury.”

Mu Xingcai didn't believe him. She had seen clearly how sharp that dagger was.

The little girl desperately tugged at his hand, frowning, looking like she was about to get angry. Shen Yue had no choice but to obediently extend his hand and spread his palm slightly. "See I'm really fine."

He deliberately concealed his wound, but he couldn't control the fresh blood that kept welling up and dripping down between his fingers.

Mu Xing grasped his palm, gently pried open his fingers, and the wound on the palm finally appeared. A long gash cut across the palm, with torn flesh and bone visible, shocking to behold!

In this situation, suturing would be best, but the conditions aren't available here.

Mu Xing tore two strips of cloth from her coat and bound them around Shen Lue's wound to stop the bleeding, "For now, this will have to do. We can treat it properly when we get back."

The little girl, her hands dirty, held his hand tightly, her brow furrowed.

Shen Lue didn't feel much pain in his hand, instead, he felt pity for her self-blaming expression. Just as he was about to comfort her, the little girl suddenly let go of his hand and looked at the battle ahead.

"...."

The man in black was incredibly skilled. He took down a dozen soldiers with ease, leaving them all wounded on the ground. Now, he set his sights on Mu Xing.

This might be his last chance, he has to catch this little girl!

Mùxīng recognized the man at first glance from his figure. This was the same man in black who had been following her out of the imperial capital and waiting for an opportunity to kill her.

He was shrouded from head to toe, even his eyes were concealed beneath a black mask, leaving nothing of his true face to be seen.

Facing his attack, Mu Xing did not dodge, but instead met it head-on.

She was truly curious, this relentless person who wanted to kill her, who could it possibly be!

Every move Mu Xing made was an attempt to pull off the masked man's face covering, while the man in black reacted swiftly. The two went back and forth, fighting with incredible intensity.

The captain, hearing the gunshots, rushed over with his men. Upon seeing this scene, his heart sank to the bottom of the valley. It was over, over! Even with such a tight deployment, someone had managed to slip in. He, the captain, was finished.

The most important thing right now is to catch the person and redeem ourselves!

"Give me some!"

At the captain's command, he charged forward with dozens of soldiers.

The man in black glanced at the people surrounding him. As Mu Xing attacked him, he leaned closer to her and said, "There's more to the Mu family annihilation than meets the eye. Want to know" she lost consciousness.Shen Yue coldly tossed the unconscious Ning Chi into the car, driving the damaged vehicle to Canglong. He threw her to his subordinates and commanded, "Take her into custody!"T...
