"This …" Mi San looked at Wei Ran at her feet, completely dumbfounded. She had been holding her weapon for a long time, but at this moment, she seemed to have forgotten how to use it.
"Who is this person?" Chu Min asked. She looked at Mi San's expression and guessed that she knew something about the person in front of her.
"Wei Ran, one of the twelve family guards of the City Lord's Mansion," Mi San said in a daze.
Their Nightingale had been fighting against Xiabong Castellan all year round, so they naturally had to carefully investigate the strength of the City Lord's Mansion. How could a person without some strength become one of the twelve most valued family guards of the City Lord's Mansion? Mi San, who was lying at her feet, had reached the realm of Three Spirits Connected. Although his strength was not the best among the twelve family guards, he was still one of the top figures in the City Lord's Mansion. How could he be so vulnerable in front of Lu Ping? How much had Lu Ping's strength grown after a year? It couldn't be that he had already reached the realm of Four Spirits Connected, right?
Mi San's mind was almost not on Wei Ran. She stared blankly at Lu Ping, who was walking towards a passerby.
"Uncle, do you know how to get to the City Lord's Mansion?" Lu Ping stepped forward and asked.
The uncle's mouth was wide open! The twelve family guards of the City Lord's Mansion were existences that no one in Canyon Peak City or even the entire Canyon Peak District dared to provoke except for the City Lord. But this young boy in front of him had casually thrown a person to the ground. Seeing Lu Ping walking towards him, the uncle originally wanted to run away, but his legs were trembling and he could not take a step. Looking at Lu Ping, his eyes were full of fear.
However, Lu Ping politely asked him such a question.
"The City Lord's Mansion?" The uncle's mouth finally closed, but his expression was the same as Mi San's, blank.
"Go that way." The uncle stretched out his hand and pointed to the south of the street. "Go straight, and after about seven or eight blocks, you will see a bluestone road. The City Lord's Mansion is on that road. You can ask there."
"Oh, thank you." Lu Ping looked to the south, thanked the uncle, and left.
"I've found the place," Lu Ping walked back to Chu Min and the others and said eagerly.
"Wait a minute," Mi San finally came back to his senses. "Don't tell me you want to break into the City Lord's Mansion?"
"Yes." Lu Ping nodded.
"This, this … this is too rash. Although you're very strong now, the City Lord's Mansion isn't the same as before, "Mi San said.
"What's different?" Chu Min asked.
"Don't stay here for too long. Follow me first," Mi San said.
When Nightingale's men entered the city, they had to be very cautious. Although they already knew that the City Lord Mansion was waiting for them, they still wanted to catch them off guard. As a result, not only did Lu Ping and the other two openly enter the city, they had also taken care of a family guard in a short period of time, successfully attracting the attention of everyone on the street. They couldn't stay here for too long.
"Then let's go with her first," Chu Min said.
"Okay." Lu Ping nodded.
"Is there anyone following us?" Mi San asked.
"I don't think so," Lu Ping said and looked at Chu Min.
"If you say no, then there's no," Chu Min said.
Lu Ping's Soul Listening Perception had become more sensitive than anyone else when it was first discovered. Chu Min also tested his current level during the journey. The degree of sensitivity was no different from the past. It was just that Lu Ping's judgment had improved by a lot. In the past, he was only aware of the existence of the power of the soul when he heard the sound. But now, he could judge a lot of what the various sounds meant. Was it just there, or was it doing something? Was it hiding the power of the soul? Or was it attacking or using some special ability? Lu Ping already had his own judgment and analysis methods.
In this way, Chu Min naturally trusted Lu Ping's judgment more. However, after listening to the confirmation of the two people, Mi San realized many problems.
Her perception ability was considered good among the people in Nightingale's group. But it was obviously far inferior to the two people in front of her. Previously, she thought that there were only four people following them, and she thought that she had gotten rid of all of them. But after listening to the two people, she realized that there were a total of seven people. She led the way and took a detour, got rid of the four people she knew, and accidentally got rid of two more people. But there was one person, Wei Ran, who had been following them, and she was completely unaware of it.
But during this time, Nightingale's men had made the final conclusion based on her perception. So during this time, were their whereabouts really as hidden as they thought? Had their every move been under surveillance without them noticing?
These questions immediately made Mi San's heart uneasy. She seemed to have seen that the place where they thought they were hiding was actually secretly surrounded by the City Lord's Mansion, and her few remaining companions fell one by one in the ambush.
I have to go back quickly!
Mi San was eager to go back, and she couldn't bear to delay even for a moment, so she quickened her pace. She caught the unconscious Wei Ran with one hand. Being able to capture this person was also extremely good news for them. Since the City Lord's Mansion was already waiting for them to come, and they had to come, they didn't really care about alerting the enemy. People at the level of the Twelve Family Guards definitely knew more information than the two or three little kittens they had spent a lot of effort to catch.
"A year ago, were you the ones who saved Su Tang?" Lu Ping, who was following behind, finally had the time to ask about the doubts he had a year ago.
"Yes," Mi San replied without looking back.
"Later, you saved Teacher Mawson and the others at the gate of Zhenfeng College," Lu Ping said.
"Yes."
"Thank you," Lu Ping said.
"It was Zhong Qian's idea," Mi San replied. From these words, it could be heard that at that time, there must have been many people in Nightingale who opposed this matter, but in the end, it was Zhong Qian who stood up for them.
Lu Ping immediately remembered that when they were in Zhiling City, after saving them, he kept talking to him about a lot of things.
"How is he now?" Lu Ping asked.
Mi San, who was walking in front, trembled slightly, and couldn't help but slow down a bit, but she still quickly replied, "He's dead."
Lu Ping was struck dumb. In the end, he could only sigh.
"Zhong Qian and Ge Feng are both dead," Mi San said softly without looking back.
Lu Ping was silent.
"And many companions," Mi San said. She didn't look back, but whether it was Lu Ping, Chu Min, or Ling Ziyan, they could all feel what kind of mood Mi San was in at this moment. The scenes of her companions falling and dying were probably constantly flashing in front of her eyes.
"I really don't want anyone else to die," Mi San said, and suddenly stopped walking. Lu Ping and the other two immediately stopped.
"So, can you help us save everyone?" Mi San turned around, her face already covered with tears.
"Of course," Lu Ping said without hesitation.
"Thank you."
"You're welcome."
Mi San, who still had tears on her face, revealed a smile.
"Let's keep walking," she said, turned around, and continued to lead the way.
