C74 Part3

....

Murong Ci heard a noise from a distance outside, and she listened to it carefully.

It was the sound of fierce fighting and people's voices.

'Was Qin Ruo discovered by the guards?'

Murong Ci's heart was startled, and as she was about to rush out, a dark shadow rushed inside quickly, and like an electric shock, the next moment, the door slammed shut.

She had already put the light away in her sleeve, so she couldn't see who the dark shadow that flashed in like a ghost was.

The dark shadow didn't move, and so she didn't move either, standing there coldly.

'There's someone outside!

It should be four people!'

The door was kicked open, and people from outside rushed in, looking for the target in the room.

She squatted in the corner, minimizing her presence.

She didn't know whether the black shadow that rushed in just now was an enemy or a friend, and so she couldn't move rashly.

A silver light shined and a fierce battle began in front of her!

She could clearly hear the soft sound of the sharp blades piercing into the flesh and blood of the people in the dead silent night.

Murong Ci widened her eyes in astonishment:

The black shadow suddenly attacked the four people, as swiftly as electricity and as tricky as a ghost!

The black shadow's sharp blade shuttled between the four people, as cold as snow, and right afterwards, four soft sounds were heard, as the four people fell to the ground dead.

With just such a move, the four people were beaten in an instant.

'Subtle and peculiar!'

She asked herself whether she could do such a stunning killing move.

Right afterwards, there was another rush of footsteps coming from outside again, and with a bang, the door was closed heavily, fastened by the black shadow.

She immediately backed away, clenching her fists, ready to fight.

The dark shadow approached her, and she could feel the pressure of a mountain coming at her.

She stepped back, waiting for the opportunity to attack the opponent's vitals—

At this moment, she heard a voice that made her stop,

"It's me, it's this King."

Murong Yu's deep and mellow voice had a strange and calming magic effect in this dark night.

Murong Ci's felt a chill in her back, with a cold sweat on her forehead, but fortunately she hadn't revealed her Martial Arts skills.

'But, why did he also visit the Military Supervisor Facility at night?'

When she stabilized her mind, Murong Yu knocked on the ground a few times, and then opened a wooden board.

She walked over and looked down:

There seemed to be a dim light coming from below.

This should be the entrance of an underground passage.

He jumped in swiftly, made a light leap and landed steadily, then he stretched out his arms,

"Jump down, this King will catch you."

The people outside should be the other guards, already trying to open the door.

She had no choice, gritted her teeth and jumped down as well.

A pair of long arms caught her firmly and took her into his arms.

His warm chest burned her like flames, and she immediately broke free and looked around.

The brief physical contact made her fascinated.

It was a kind of passion burning her soul, a different kind of ecstasy.

Murong Ci raised her eyes and looked up.

It was a spacious tunnel, damp and cold, with a dark red and dim light coming from the front, mysterious and strange.

Murong Yu winked at her and took the lead to move forward.

The place was as silent as death, and it seemed as if the whole world was gone, with only this tunnel left, and with only them alive.

Their footsteps echoed clearly in the empty tunnel, and they walked forward cautiously, along the twists and turns.

They found a candle burning pine oil on the stone wall, that seemed to never go out.

"This tunnel seems to be very long."

His warm voice echoed in the empty tunnel.

"Are you going to the end?"

She hesitated a little, worried that Qin Ruo could be in danger, and worried that Qin Ruo wouldn't find her and worry.

"Since we're already here, we have to see what's there ahead this tunnel."

Murong Yu looked back at her,

"Your Royal Highness, are you afraid?"

Murong Ci was too lazy to answer this annoying question, and she walked forward past him with a glance.

'If I was afraid, I wouldn't come here in the first place!'

He smiled and followed her, moving forward.

As he was walking next to her, suddenly a strange thought popped into his mind:

'Right now only the two of us are walking here.

If the sky and the earth were torn apart, the ground was shaking like an earthquake, and the tunnel had collapsed, they would be buried here.

So, am I really willing to do so?'
