Chapter 129 – Peace Returned (1)
Outside the inner palace, the soldiers restlessly moved broken wood and gravel nonstop. The buildings of the palace were all compromised of one same system and if they are not careful, the inner hall would collapse as well. Especially since the person they were trying to save was just a little girl, if it collapsed, she would be done for.
Mo Linyuan’s face was deathly pale, but apart from taking some numbing medicine, he refused to leave.
Other than fear–more than fear, the youth felt a crushing regret that he had never felt before. He knew that Ye Mu wasn’t Ye Li’s daughter and he knew that Ye Mu didn’t treat Ye Li as her father. He also knew that Ye Li’s actions were beyond despicable.
But he never thought the unexpected–that Ye Mu didn’t want Ye Li to die.
Then, would his former actions push Ye Mu from him far, far away?
At the beginning, the sound of rushing wind was indistinguishable. But then, as if a violent wind was pouring through the cracks, the sound became louder and louder, as if there was something that was about to split open from inside.
“This is bad! Perhaps Ye Li is going to self-destruct!”
Wen Feng’s words made Mo Linyuan’s already pale face turn more pallor. He hastily gave the order, “Quick! Force your way through the ruins and save them!”
There was no time left to be careful and slow. They had to open a pathway quick.
When everyone heard the order they rushed into position, but just as they hit the pile of rocks, they heard a loud bang after another. The remaining support barely holding the inner hall suddenly collapsed; the erected palace in front of them had suddenly turned into a complete ruin! This time… if a child was buried underneath the rocks, she would definitely die!
“YE MU!”
He wanted to go forward, but the internal injuries he suffered made him unable to even stand up. Especially after seeing everything collapse in front of his eyes, he could no longer hold it in and spat out a mouthful of blood.
Yan Xu also stared blankly at the ruins in front of him. The girl who was not even heavier than a little wolfdog… She’s dead?
Everyone present quietened down–no one dared to speak at this time. Now that the inner palace had collapsed, that terrifying Ye Li should also be dead, right?
But at that moment, Wen Feng’s sharp eyes caught sight of something!
“Your Highness! The wooden board is moving–someone is still alive!”
His words were like a drop of boiling oil in icy water and it was enough to wake Mo Linyuan from his stupor. He immediately pulled himself together and looked towards the direction Wen Feng was pointing. It really seemed that the broken piece of wood was really moving!
Mo Linyuan’s eyes widened. “Hurry! Save him!”
The martial experts heard his order and immediately went forward to help. With a breaking sound, a hand reached out from under the broken wood–it was a small hand! After she stretched it out, she grabbed onto the debris and used all her strength to climb out!
Ye…Ye Mu?!
She was actually still alive!
The rest of them speedily went over to help her out. Ye Mu quickly crawled out, her body was already covered in blood…However, it seemed like it came from someone else.
Behind her, there was a deathly silence. Ye Li… is probably dead, they all thought.
Yan Xu’s eyes dimmed a little. Although Ye Li was a man who was thoroughly evil, able to grab slaves and offer them to people who liked to abuse children without blinking, played with the lives of numerous people without suffering any psychological trauma–Ye Li had the brains and brawns that was truly formidable and admirable. A cunning general.
Now that he was dead, it was quite a pity.
“Ye Mu…Ye Mu?”
Mo Linyuan carefully carried Ye Mu into his arms. She seemed to be in a daze, her fingers unconsciously grabbing onto Mo Linyuan’s sleeve. It was as if she was still caught in the storm and unable to extricate herself.
She had sucked up all of Ye Li’s strength and life–like a vampire. A memory was inside her mind–Ye Mu was resisting with all her might, and the last thing she remembered was Ye Li’s overly tall body in the storm and the hand he used to cover her head.
