"Follow ." Ye Luo pulled Shi Yanran directly through the mountain wall, leading her through a passageway to the outside of the valley. They were now in the woods of Sunset Mountain, and by crossing the forest, they could head down the mountain.
"We really made it out?" Shi Yanran could hardly believe it as her eyes turned back to look at what was still just a mountain wall, with no sign of any passageway.
But they had truly walked out, which was quite incredible. Everything that had happened today made Shi Yanran feel like the whole world had changed.
"Alright, we can go back now," Ye Luo said with a smile.
However, Shi Yanran’s expression changed as she whispered, "How are we supposed to go back looking like this?"
Upon hearing Shi Yanran’s words, Ye Luo looked at her, clad only in her underwear, and at himself in just a pair of boxer shorts and a shirt. Indeed, it wasn’t a good look for going back.
Using his Clairvoyant Eye again, Ye Luo saw nurous vehicles parked at the foot of the mountain, including police cars, sedans, and various excavators and cranes; they were clearly there to look for their bodies.
"Stay here, wait for ," Ye Luo said, and then he dashed off.
Soon Ye Luo reached the foot of the mountain where the police chief Zeng Fang was talking to several people. Ye Luo appeared suddenly, patting Zeng Fang on the shoulder.
"Who’s that?"
As Zeng Fang turned and saw Ye Luo’s face, he jumped in shock, backing away repeatedly. The others present stared at Ye Luo with shocked faces, turning pale as if they had seen a ghost.
"Chief, you don’t need to have such a big reaction upon seeing ," Ye Luo said lightly.
"Ye Luo... You... Are you human... or a ghost?" Zeng Fang trembled as he spoke, his complexion ashen, his body shivering.
Ye Luo rolled his eyes and said, "Have you ever seen a ghost as handso as ?"
"So you’re saying you are human?" Zeng Fang asked cautiously.
"Of course, I’m human. With my good looks, even the Netherworld King wouldn’t dare to take ," Ye Luo said with a tilt of his head and a self-loving expression.
"You actually didn’t die?" Zeng Fang looked at Ye Luo in amazent.
Ye Luo frowned coldly and said, "Chief Zeng seems to be quite eager for my demise."
"Oh, that’s not what I ant. You got it wrong. We all thought you were dead, so..." Zeng Fang hastily tried to explain.
"Enough, cut the chatter. Now, get a set of n’s clothes and won’s clothes, quickly, right away!" Ye Luo waved his hand and commanded.
Zeng Fang took another serious look at Ye Luo, and once he was sure Ye Luo was alive, he hurriedly instructed soone to arrange it.
"Mr. Ye, it’s great that you’re not dead," Zeng Fang said with a smile at Ye Luo.
"Ye Luo?"
Just then, an incredulous voice suddenly rang out from a distance. Leng Ruobing rushed over, looking at Ye Luo with an excited expression.
"Miss Leng!" Ye Luo greeted her with a smile.
Leng Ruobing looked at Ye Luo with flickering eyes and after a mont said, "You’re still alive?"
"Of course, I have nine lives; it’s not so easy for to die," Ye Luo said with a smile.
"By the way, what about Miss Shi? Could it be that she...," Leng Ruobing’s expression suddenly changed.
"Don’t worry; she’s also fine. I’ll bring her over right away."
Soon a police officer ca with two sets of clothes, and Ye Luo took the clothes and went up the mountain again. Minutes later, Ye Luo ca down with Shi Yan Ran.
Seeing Shi Yan Ran appear, everyone present let out a sigh of relief. Leng Ruobing looked sowhat moved and approached, saying to Shi Yan Ran, "Miss Shi, I’m sorry we failed to protect you adequately and caused you to be frightened."
"I’m already fine. There’s no need to say more," Shi Yan Ran said with a slight smile.
"I’ll notify Elder Shi right now," Shi Yan Ran said hurriedly, taking out her phone and dialing a number. After a mont, Leng Ruobing looked at Ye Luo and said, "Elder Shi wants to see you."
"See ?" Ye Luo was sowhat surprised, his eyes involuntarily looking at Shi Yan Ran. Could it be that Shi Yan Ran’s grandfather knew about the matter between her and him? Indeed, it was very possible and Shi Yan Ran’s expression also showed a hint of nervousness and shyness.
Afterward, Ye Luo and Shi Yan Ran left Sunset Mountain in Leng Ruobing’s car and headed to the city center.
With all this commotion, five or six hours had passed, and the sky gradually darkened. The setting sun sank, and the morning glow reflected against the sky.
More than an hour later, Leng Ruobing watched as the car arrived outside an alley and got out. Ye Luo and Shi Yan Ran got out of the car together.
As soon as they entered the alley, Ye Luo beca alert. Through his Clairvoyant Eye, he discovered many masters hidden in this seemingly ordinary alley, and all of them belonged to the Innate Realm.
Having so many masters for protection, it seed that Shi Yan Ran’s grandfather really was no ordinary person—his status was definitely extraordinary.
Passing through the alley, Ye Luo followed the two won to the outside of a siheyuan. Two soldiers in military uniforms stood by the door, both exuding a sharp aura and displaying extraordinary strength.
Just then, the doors of the siheyuan opened, and Elder Zhong and War Wolf both walked out. They looked at Shi Yan Ran with excitent and joy, and War Wolf’s eyes also swept over Ye Luo.
"Uncle War Wolf, Grandfather Zhong, I’m so happy to see you again," Shi Yan Ran said to the two, her expression one of excited jubilation.
"Miss, it’s wonderful you are unhard. You have no idea how worried I was when I heard you were in trouble. It seems the Miss truly has the blessings of the heavens," Elder Zhong said to Shi Yan Ran with a face full of affectionate concern.
Then Elder Zhong’s gaze turned to Ye Luo, saying, "Brother Ye, I really must thank you this ti. Otherwise, I fear I wouldn’t know what might have happened to the Miss."
"Elder Zhong, there’s no need for such formality," Ye Luo said with a subtle smile.
"Miss, Ye Luo, Elder Shi is already waiting inside. Please," War Wolf said to Ye Luo and Shi Yan Ran.
Imdiately, Ye Luo and Shi Yan Ran followed War Wolf into the siheyuan. A light was on in the room opposite them, and War Wolf led them straight inside.
Walking into the room, Ye Luo saw an elderly man in a gray cloth robe, his face full of wrinkles, sitting quietly. He was puffing on a smoking pipe, his eyes slightly narrowed, appearing quite ordinary.
"Grandfather!"
Shi Yan Ran, seeing this elderly man, looked imnsely excited and rushed over to him.
"You’re back, Yan Ran." The elder’s expression showed little change, but his hand holding the smoking pipe trembled slightly, betraying his inner excitent. His eyes twinkled.
