Chapter 166: Murder

You came back just in time. A bomb was dropped directly, and she almost went to heaven!

"We were worried that something might have happened to you since you didn't come down the mountain for so long, so we came to look for you," said Immortal Muyang as he sized her up and exclaimed in surprise, "Why is there a bump on the back of your head?"

It was probably caused by the impact just now.

Yaohua casually touched the bump on the back of her head and showed a kind smile. "It's okay. It will subside in a few days."

She silently repeated in her heart that they were all on the same side, which made the smile on her face look a bit more natural.

"It's good that you're okay," said Immortal Muyang, clasping his hands together and thanking the heavens for their protection.

Immortal Muyang and Fairy Ziying were a bickering couple. Maybe he knew something about Mingye.

With this thought in mind, Yaohua had just started to ask when Immortal Muyang suddenly exclaimed, looking extremely worried.

"We've been out for so long. Ziying must be very worried. We'd better set off quickly and go back earlier."

Yaohua had no choice but to swallow the words in her mouth. The three of them supported each other and left the cliff.

After returning to the village, Immortal Muyang shut himself off from the outside world and immersed himself in smelting.

Yaohua told Fairy Ziying about Mingye.

"Could there be someone else on this icefield who can manipulate spiritual power besides the Snow Demon?"

If so, does it mean that they also have the opportunity to manipulate spiritual power?

"It shouldn't be like this according to reason," said Fairy Ziying, scratching her head. "But I'm not very sure."

Could it be that Mingye is really not the Snow Demon?

Yaohua suddenly felt a little more at ease.

She had to pass the Snow Demon to leave the icefield. If Mingye was the Snow Demon, what should she do to leave here?

"By the way, there's another thing."

Putting aside the matter of Mingye for the time being, thinking of Zhaojun whose head she had chopped off, a shadow loomed over Yaohua's heart. She told Fairy Ziying everything that had happened after she met Zhaojun.

"Aren't the Heavenly Demons already suppressed by the general?" Fairy Ziying's eyes widened in surprise as she stared at Yaohua in shock. "The only Heavenly Demon who couldn't be suppressed is Gusu Yue. They must have a grand plan to look for him!"

This matter was really serious. Fairy Ziying subconsciously started to pace back and forth, her expression changing constantly.

"Fairy, why can't Gusu Yue be suppressed?"

Yaohua originally thought that the Crown Prince of the Heavenly Demons had escaped because he came to the icefield, but Fairy Ziying's words indicated otherwise.

"Because Gusu Yue has a magic treasure to protect himself," said Fairy Ziying, looking worried. "They must want to get that magic treasure from Gusu Yue."

"If that magic treasure is taken away by them, won't all the Heavenly Demons be released?"

"Exactly," said Fairy Ziying, her little face looking as bitter as a gourd. "There's already one Heavenly Demon on the icefield. God knows how many more have sneaked in by now."

This was really hard to guard against.

"Gusu Yue's head was smashed by Immortal Jiang Mo. Maybe he won't listen to those Heavenly Demons at all."

At this point, Yaohua could only console herself like this.

"The Heavenly Demons are all related by blood and trust each other instinctively. No matter how stupid Gusu Yue is, he can sense the aura of his companions," said Fairy Ziying, not sounding optimistic. "If Gusu Yue's head wasn't broken, things wouldn't be so difficult for the sake of Ying Han."

"Then let's cure him."

On the day when Immortal Muyang successfully forged his sword, the wind and snow outside formed a huge tornado. It roared and swept away the roof of Immortal Muyang's house, arrogantly turning everything it could destroy into ruins.

At that time, Yaohua was squatting outside Gusu Yue's house, her legs frozen stiff.

After she proposed to cure Gusu Yue's head that day, she had been looking for his whereabouts.

She just didn't expect that after finally finding the place, she couldn't see Gusu Yue at all. Helpless, Yaohua could only squat nearby.

The wind and snow roared towards her. Yaohua didn't pay much attention at first. By the time she realized something was wrong, the rolled-up thatch had already been scattered all over the place.

Moreover, some messy rock fragments seemed to have eyes and were almost falling directly at her.

Just as several rocks were about to hit her head, a black figure suddenly appeared and blocked her.

Bang—

A rock hit the person's back, and Yaohua immediately heard a muffled groan.

She looked up. "Gusu Yue? You're back!"

She didn't expect Gusu Yue to be so kind as to block the rocks for her!

A look of surprise flashed across Gusu Yue's purple eyes. "You came here specifically to look for me too?"

Besides her, who else had come?

As if seeing the doubt in Yaohua's heart, Gusu Yue pointed to a place not far away. "They're also here to look for me."

A pair of cold and sinister eyes looked over at the same time.

The happy look on Yaohua's face when she saw Gusu Yue gradually disappeared. She took two steps back. "I suddenly have nothing to do."

Fairy Ziying's worries were really not unfounded. She didn't expect that besides Zhaojun, there were really other Heavenly Demons.

Hearing her words, Gusu Yue was a bit confused. "Do you have something to do or not?"

Yaohua quickly shook her head. Facing so many Heavenly Demons, she wasn't sure she could defeat them all. She just wanted to go back and report the news. She would leave the rest to Fairy Ziying.

Thinking like this, she quickly walked back the way she came.

An unfamiliar Heavenly Demon naturally blocked her way.

"Our honored guest might as well go in and sit down."

"No, no."

Yaohua waved her hands repeatedly to show her refusal.

"Little fairy, why are you so resistant? Do you look down on us?"

Yes, there was a deep grudge between their Phoenix Clan and the Dragon Clan. Who would look up to the other?

"I'm not resistant at all," said Yaohua, rubbing her hands and stamping her feet in the distance. "I'm just cold. I definitely don't look down on you guys."

Seeing the other Heavenly Demons approaching, Yaohua was a bit worried.

Fairy Ziying had already mentioned the importance of Gusu Yue. She must not let these Heavenly Demons take away that magic treasure.

"Since uncle insists that I go, then I'd better obey," said Yaohua, pretending to be calm as she followed behind the Heavenly Demon. Just as she was about to enter Gusu Yue's house, Gusu Yue suddenly walked over and reached out to block her.

Yaohua raised her eyes and looked at him curiously. "What's wrong?"

"You wait outside. We'll come out soon."

After saying this, Gusu Yue rushed into the house first and closed the door tightly.

Do they also want to talk secretly?

For a moment, Yaohua felt like her heart was being scratched by a hundred claws and couldn't calm down at all.

Just then, a strong smell of blood wafted out.

Yaohua lowered her head and saw a wisp of fresh blood flowing out from under the threshold.

This is...

Yaohua suddenly stared with wide eyes.

Could it be that in order to get the magic treasure, those Heavenly Demons actually killed Gusu Yue?

Yaohua gritted her teeth. Gusu Yue couldn't die!
