After a while, Hope At The End Of The Tunnel announced in the channel that he had discovered a small town in the wilderness east of Qu Zhou. There was no teleportation circle there and the terrain was relatively secluded. It was a good place to hide. He had already spent money to rent a small house and sent the coordinates of the town to the channel.

To Kill Like A Crow On A String was overjoyed after reading it and immediately asked everyone to gather at the town. She smiled at Lan Ya and said, "See, isn't it going well?"

"Let's be careful."

Perhaps it was the aftereffect of being tricked by the NPC. She felt that this quest would not be completed so easily. This was an Absolute Art quest.

From what she knew, the secret technique quests for the Shifting Flower Palace and Wudang had never been completed before.

"Aren't we being very careful …" To Kill Like A Crow On A String inadvertently glanced at the channel and cheered excitedly, "The Long Batian got it!

Hooray! "

"That's great!

Is he already here? "

"Yes, he's almost at the back door. Let's hurry down and help him."

The two immediately got off the carriage and stood guard by the back door. After a while, the door opened and Long Batian sneaked out with a gunny sack. He immediately called for them to leave when he saw them.

"Retreat retreat retreat!"

"Get on the carriage!"

Long Batian strode to the side of the carriage and threw the gunny sack inside easily. To Kill Like A Crow On A String and Lan Ya scolded at the same time, "Hey!

Be gentle! "

"There's a girl in there. Can't you be gentler!"

Long Batian shrunk his neck in fear, "It's just a game. You guys are taking it too seriously!"

To Kill Like A Crow On A String stared at him sternly and said, "Even if it's just a game, you can't throw away your humanity and gentlemanly manners!"

"Alright, alright. It's my fault. Can we leave now?"

In view of the Long Batian's good attitude in admitting his mistake, everyone did not dwell on this issue and quickly boarded the carriage.

Lan Ya said to the stunned driver, "Go to the town in the eastern suburbs. I'll give you double the fare, but don't tell anyone about what happened today."

She didn't have to worry about the coachman leaking the information because the low-level NPCs would follow the procedures. They wouldn't be able to deal with such a flexible situation. All they had to do was collect the money and drive the carriage to the designated location.

When they passed through the city gate, the soldiers guarding the city had to check the situation inside the carriage according to the usual practice. However, the Long Batian promptly gave them some benefits to fool them.

After leaving the city, he let out a sigh of relief and said, "Fortunately, they aren't soldiers from the Ming Dynasty. Otherwise, it would be difficult to deal with them."

At first, Wen Yi didn't have any reaction because she had been paralyzed by Lan Ya's poison. When the effects of the poison wore off, she began to struggle with all her might.

The Long Batian reminded everyone in the channel not to say anything if they wanted her to live. If they were exposed, they would be hunted down by the entire Wen Family.

When they arrived at the town in the eastern suburbs, everyone hid Wen Yi in a small courtyard. Lan Ya paid the coachman and was about to send her away when the Long Batian suggested, "Since there are so many people here, let's go back to the Wan Mansion and be spies."

Lan Ya thought about it and agreed. Wen Yi was captured, but there had to be someone to deliver a message to Xia Xueyi.

Moreover, she had used Yu Lianzhau's trust to sneak in. It wouldn't be good to leave without saying goodbye.

Thus, the two of them went back in the carriage.

Returning to the Wen residence, Lan Ya had not yet calmed down from her thrilling emotions when Yin Liting suddenly knocked on her door. "Miss Lan Ya, are you there?"

She opened the door. "Swordsman Yin, why are you looking for me?"

"Nothing. I just wanted to see if you were here."

Yin Liting's expression was very serious. He looked like he wanted to say something, but in the end, he couldn't help but say, "I just received news that something happened in the Wan Mansion. Second Senior Brother asked me to remind you not to go out if there's nothing important. Be careful not to be implicated."

Lan Ya's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that the matter had been exposed so quickly?

However, she hadn't shown her face, so the possibility of finding out about her was not high. On the other hand, she didn't know if the Long Batian had been discovered. Thinking of this, she quickly sent a message to the Long Batian, telling him to be careful.

On the other hand, she carefully asked Yin Liting for information. "Did a player from the Five Poisons do something?"

"No, it's just that I heard that a young lady from the Wen Family went missing. A player said that he saw her being taken away by another player."

"Ah?" Lan Ya's eyes widened in "surprise". "Is there such a thing?

But since he saw it, that player should know who she is, right? "

"Yes, so that player is taking the missing lady's husband to identify the people one by one."

Yin Liting comforted her. "Don't worry, this matter won't involve you. But remember, don't say that you're a Wudang disciple just because you're one of the Five Poisons.

I'm here with you. No one will dare to do anything to you. "

Lan Ya was touched by Yin Liting's concern, but at the same time, she felt a little guilty. After all, he trusted her so much. But this matter really had something to do with her …

What made Lan Ya most uneasy was not that she was about to meet Xia Xueyi, but that Long Batian had not replied to her messages.

She could only see that Long Batian had been in Qu Zhou through her friends.

But whether it was in the Wan Mansion or the resurrection point, they were all in Qu Zhou.

After a long time of uneasiness, Long Batian suddenly sent a message in the teammate channel.

[Long Batian]: I'm dead …

[To Kill Like A Crow On A String]:???

[Xiang Xiang]:????

[Hope At The End Of The Tunnel]:?????

[Rana Yamashita]:?????

[Long Batian]: Are you guys competing to see who can send more question marks?

[Rana Yamashita]: How did you die? Xia Xueyi recognized you.

[Long Batian]: Yeah, Xia Xueyi and a female player from the Beggar's Sect were recognizing people one by one, and then they recognized me.

If I didn't run fast enough, I would have been caught by them!

[Xiang Xiang]: If you ran fast enough, how did you die?

[Long Batian]: I didn't expect Xia Xueyi to have hidden weapons. I miscalculated.

[To Kill Like A Crow On A String]: Forget it. Don't think so much. Come and meet us quickly. Rana, you must hide well. Don't be discovered.

[Rana Yamashita]: I'm fine. I'm safe now. I'm with Yin Liting.

[Xiang Xiang]: That's good. Sixth Senior Brother is a very nice person. Be careful!

[Rana Yamashita]: I'm afraid that Xia Xueyi will recognize me now. We've met once before …

[To Kill Like A Crow On A String]: No, he killed Long Batian. Next, he must be looking for his wife's whereabouts.

As soon as she finished speaking, there was a knock on the door, and a clear male voice sounded, "I am Xia Xueyi, and I have an important matter to discuss with you. Please open the door for the distinguished guest."
