Chapter 723: Encountering Enemies

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

There were many people in the Valley of Heavenly Secrets who knew medicine. As soon as Shen Yijia and the others entered the Misty Forest, Ji Yunxi and Si Yun woke up.

Before they could ask, a clansman came to report that Lin Shao, his sister, and Ji Luo had disappeared.

The father and daughter were so angry that they almost vomited blood. They could only blame themselves for having ulterior motives in order to prevent their clansmen from knowing Shen Yijia’s true ident.i.ty. They had never revealed the relationships between Shen Yijia, Lin Shao, and Ji Luo.

The clansmen were at a loss from the beginning to the end, so they could only search blindly.

Before she could calm down, MO Tong hurriedly came to report that Madam Ji had been held hostage in the Misty Forest.

“Outsiders are not familiar with the Misty Wood. They must not have gone far. Bring people to chase after them immediately, ” Si Yun said coldly.

Ji Yunxi glanced at MO Tong, killing intent flashing across her eyes.

Neither of them mentioned Madam Ji, who had been captured.

MO Tong paused and nodded.

Soon, with MO Tong in the lead, a group of people entered the Misty Forest.

Just as they had expected, although Ji Yunxi’s methods were involved when they came, the fog in the forest was real. Coupled with the fact that it was night and it had just rained, it was extremely difficult for Shen Yijia and the others to walk.

Song Jingchen had been holding Shen Yijia’s hand tightly ever since they entered the Misty Forest. Shen Yijia knew what he was worried about and obediently followed him.

Perhaps because of the surrounding environment, no one spoke along the way.

At this moment, footsteps suddenly sounded around them. They were still a distance away, so they could not hear them clearly.

Normally, they would not be able to hear this sound, but the forest was silent. Coupled with the fact that martial arts pract.i.tioners had sharp ears and eyes, the few of them noticed it immediately.

Soon, they could see specks of fire approaching them.

The fog was too thick. There was only a weak fire, but no one was there.

“Hubby,” Shen Yijia called out softly. Did the people of the Valley of Heavenly Secrets not want the old woman’s life?

“Find a place to hide for a while,” Song Jingchen said.

Shen Yijia was about to say that there was no cave around. Where could she hide?

Song Jingchen tightened his grip around her waist and carried her and Madam Ji up to the treetop.

Seeing this, You Yi also grabbed Lin Shao and flew up.

Shen Yijia looked at MO Yuan and saw that she had tied the cloak around Ji Luo to her body. She grabbed a vine and easily climbed up the tree.

Shen Yijia thought to herself, “You can do that?”

The few of them held their breaths and focused, hiding their figures on the lush branches. Lin Shao covered his mouth tightly and used his other hand to cover the sleeping Lin Miaomiao, as if he was afraid that he would be discovered.

You Yi glanced at the person who was red with agitation, and silently turned his head away.

Wasn’t this kid a little silly to start covering it now?

With the fire, the footsteps became clearer. Through the thick fog, they could vaguely see blurry figures approaching them.

Just from the number of figures, it could be seen that many people had come. If they were really discovered, a fierce battle would be inevitable.

Shen Yijia subconsciously pressed down on the whip at her waist.

Seeing that they were about to approach, it was unknown what they had discovered, but they all stood still.

Shen Yijia blinked. Just as she was wondering, a murderous aura suddenly approached them.

It was so fast that Shen Yijia had only seen it on You Yi when she came to this world.

There were a total of two auras. She quickly pulled out her whip to block them, but Song Jingchen hugged her and landed on another tree.

Coupled with You Yi, the four of them exchanged blows in midair in the blink of an eye.

With the interference of the fog and their fast speed, they could only see a few shadows flying around.

Shen Yijia was extremely anxious. You Yi’s voice suddenly sounded. “Stop..”
