Before dawn the next day, the army set out.
Mu Xiong and Mu Lianrong rode alongside to see off Mu Qingge, reluctantly advising her to write ho often and to take care of her health, among other trivial matters.
From morning until noon, they had no choice but to return to Luodu.
The rest of the journey, Mu Qingge had to handle alone.
Accompanied by five thousand troops, Mu Qingge marched grandly towards Yi City. As for those monsters and demons scheming against her, she not only didn’t fear them but rather looked forward to it.
It seed that these assassins trying to take her life were just practice targets for her.
However, by the ti she leisurely reached Yi City, the expected assassinations hadn’t occurred even once, leaving her quite frustrated.
Upon her return to the castle in Yi City, Mu Qingge wore a gloomy expression as she called out Gu Ya.
"Didn’t you say you’d only make a move if my life was in danger?" Mu Qingge said in a displeased tone.
Gu Ya looked innocent: "That’s none of my business."
Mu Qingge didn’t believe it at all: "It’s not your business, then where are they? Those assassins trying to kill ?"
"I didn’t make a move, but soone else did," Gu Ya replied indifferently.
Soone made a move?!
Mu Qingge’s eyes flashed, quickly recalling in her mind who she knew could be secretly helping her?
Princess Changle? Don’t be ridiculous. After canceling the marriage, it’s a wonder if she doesn’t try to kill her herself, how could she secretly protect her? Besides, those who want her dead have considerable backgrounds, how could Qin Yiyao possibly protect her so thoroughly?
Shao Fatty?
Even more impossible. As soon as this guess erged, Mu Qingge imdiately dismissed it without further thought. However, she did feel a bit guilty for coming and leaving in a hurry, not having ti to say goodbye to Fatty.
Who knows if Fatty will hold a grudge when they et next ti!
If it’s none of them, then who could it be?
If Grandpa had sent soone to protect her, they wouldn’t keep it hidden. Besides, she had already ntioned that Gu Ya was her protector, so they wouldn’t have been redundant.
Mu Qingge racked her brains but couldn’t figure out who might be secretly protecting her.
"Did you clearly see those who wanted to kill and those who protected ?" Mu Qingge suddenly raised her eyes to look at Gu Ya.
Gu Ya nodded silently, coolly saying: "The assassins ca in three waves initially, then another joined. They were led by soone from the Green Realm, with accompanying Yellow Realm and Green Realm mbers. It seems they were specially configured for soone of your Green Realm level. The protectors were only one team, but the leader had stepped one foot into the Purple Realm, a Blue Realm Peak Powerhouse. Although they didn’t have a large number of people, they were all ruthless and fierce, all in the Green Realm."
So powerful!
Mu Qingge’s eyes narrowed slightly, shocked by Gu Ya’s words.
Who on earth had such capability to command soone on the verge of the Purple Realm to protect her?
"Are those people still around?" Mu Qingge pondered and asked.
Gu Ya replied: "After the young Lord arrived at Yi City, they retreated."
"Do you know their background?" Mu Qingge raised her eyes to look at Gu Ya.
Gu Ya was silent for a mont and then coolly said: "Matters of the Third-class Country, generally speaking, don’t involve..."
"Enough, if you don’t know, just say you don’t know." Mu Qingge unceremoniously interrupted Gu Ya.
Gu Ya’s face darkened, and he shut his mouth.
Seeing the proud face suffer in front of her, Mu Qingge felt an indescribable joy in her heart!
After letting Gu Ya leave, Mu Qingge lifted her hand to rub her chin, thinking for a long ti, she still couldn’t figure out who would secretly protect her and possess such a formidable force.
Unable to understand, she decided to let it go for now.
In any case, the one who protects her shouldn’t be considered an enemy, right?
