"Nothing … I … I just feel … sorry …"
There were so many words she wanted to say, but Lin Mengya could not utter a single word, as if a fishbone was stuck in her throat.
Her eyes were red, but she tried her best not to let the tears fall.
"Sigh … I don't blame you, don't be sad."
He reached out his big hand and touched her forehead gently.
Long Tianhao could no longer vent his anger, even though he was angry at Lin Mengya.
Moreover, although he was angry at Lin Mengya, he was more angry at himself for not being able to protect her.
Now, looking at her tearful face, the anger in his heart had already vanished into thin air.
All he felt for Lin Mengya now was an indescribable tenderness.
"It's good that you've learned your lesson. Be careful from now on."
Long Tianhao groaned in his heart. In the past, no matter who it was, as long as they made a mistake, they would inevitably be reprimanded by him.
A mistake was a mistake. Even if there were thousands of reasons, it could not cover up the fact that they had made a mistake.
However, when it came to Lin Mengya, he could not even bear to say a harsh word.
In this lifetime, she was probably the only one who would treat him this way.
"Alright, I'll be careful from now on."
Lin Mengya held on tightly to Long Tianhao's cloak and was as obedient as a kitten.
It was rare to see her so quiet and adorable. Long Tianhao was satisfied and held her in his arms to protect her.
The wide cloak covered her slender figure completely. He just wanted to trap her in his own world, so that she could no longer see any cruelty or darkness.
The night finally faded away and the gentle sunlight from the east took over the whole land.
Liu Xuan and Night were in front, approaching the dungeon.
Looking at the hole that could only fit one person, Night and Liu Xuan looked at each other before nimbly leaping into the hole and sneaking in without a sound.
The sound of the mechanism inside was not as loud as when Lin Mengya went out just now.
Lin Mengya could not help but take a few steps forward. Zhu Yan was still struggling inside. Although the mechanism could temporarily trap Ambassador White Dragon and Shadow Slave, she could not sacrifice Zhu Yan.
"Zhu Yan! I've asked someone to save you! "
In order not to hurt Liu Xuan and Night, Lin Mengya stuck her head out and shouted into the room.
At the same time, the sound of swords clashing came from the depths of the prison.
Lin Mengya wanted to check on Zhu Yan's condition, but Long Tianyu held her hands tightly.
Lin Mengya stopped herself bitterly, looked at Long Tianhao with a pair of timid eyes, and said in a low voice,
"Zhu Yan is the amulet that Qinghu gave me. This is a serious matter. I can't let anything happen to him. "
The traps in the dungeon were much more concentrated than outside.
Therefore, Lin Mengya left Zhu Yan to control it herself, while she went out to look for help.
Long Tianhao gave her an ambiguous look, then took a few quick steps and stood in front of her.
As soon as the group entered the prison, they saw Liu Xuan and Night fighting with a black shadow.
Both of their martial arts were not weak, and their movement techniques were very agile and nimble. Even so, he was still unable to separate himself from the black shadow.
"I'm here!"
Zhu Yan, who was standing in the well, had thought that he would definitely die here.
Unexpectedly, just as the mechanism was about to be exhausted, two people barged in. They even held back Slave Ying, who was trying to kill him.
Coupled with Lin Mengya's shout, he finally felt relieved. Help had arrived.
Unexpectedly, the moment he let his guard down, a shadow that had been ignored by others suddenly appeared in front of him.
Ambassador White Dragon, who was extremely aggrieved, pounced on Zhu Yan.
He was not a fool. He knew that he had lost the upper hand. If he did not catch Zhu Yan, he would probably die here.
"Watch out!"
Lin Mengya shouted anxiously. Based on her understanding of Ambassador White Dragon, he was extremely cunning.
If he really succeeded, Zhu Yun and Qinghu would be in danger!
At this critical moment, a cold light flashed and pierced into Ambassador White Dragon's waist.
Under the mask, a pair of eyes widened in pain as he stared in shock at the cold, arrogant and ruthless young man in front of him.
He had never thought that in the moment of danger, Zhu Yan would stab the scimitar that never left his body without the slightest hesitation.
"You …"
At this moment, the fierce force that pounced on Zhu Yan became one of the reasons why he was courting death.
"Don't worry, I won't kill you."
Zhu Yan let go of the machete in his hand in disgust. In an instant, Ambassador White Dragon collapsed on the ground.
Lin Mengya stood behind Long Tianhao. She was only shocked for a moment, but then she suddenly remembered the scene when she met Zhu Yan for the first time.
It was no wonder that Zhu Yun entrusted him to her.
If such a talented child were to fall into the hands of the Candle Dragon Cult, there would be another cruel and merciless killer in the martial arts world in eight to ten years' time.
"Your master is already dead. If you continue to resist, he will lose his life."
Zhu Yan stepped on Ambassador White Dragon's head as he spoke in an extremely arrogant manner.
Perhaps it was because he was concerned about his master, or perhaps it was because he had spent too much of Shadow Slave's physical strength resisting the mechanism for a long time.
The swift and fierce attacks gradually slowed down, and it was not as difficult to find an opening as it used to be.
Night and Liu Xuan had a tacit understanding of each other. After exchanging dozens of blows, they found an opening and quickly stabbed their weapons into Shadow Slave's body.
In an instant, the barbs of the whip and Night's long sword stirred up a mist of blood.
Shadow Slave's figure staggered and in the end, he lost his balance and fell into the middle of the pond.
Light red blood flowed out from the pool. This battle ended with Lin Mengya's side's absolute victory.
"Take him back. Zuo Qiuyu, you will personally take care of him."
Although the two parties were working together, Long Tianhao was obviously the commander.
After getting Shadow Slave out of the pool and bringing Ambassador White Dragon away, Long Tianhao instructed Zuo Qiuyu to personally treat Ambassador White Dragon's injuries.
Outside, there were already people cleaning up the battlefield in tacit understanding.
At this moment, the spacious courtyard had been filled with stones from the mechanism and corpses lying on the ground.
Hongyu and Xiu had also come out from their hiding place with the girls who had been hiding.
Although everyone was a little frightened, fortunately, it was more daunting than dangerous.
There was no way Lin Mengya could help to clean up the mess.
Under Long Tianhao's glare, she had no choice but to obediently bring Xiu and Zhu Yan to board the horse carriage waiting outside.
"I didn't expect the dignified Princess Anle to be an embroidered pillow. Why, are you really that afraid of your husband? "
In the spacious horse carriage, the three of them were actually exhausted.
However, Zhu Yan still seized the rare opportunity to make sarcastic remarks to Lin Mengya.
After all, there were not many opportunities to make her suffer.
"Nonsense! That's because Prince Yu cares about my elder sister. You're just a little kid, what do you know? "
Lin Mengya naturally ignored Zhu Yan's childish provocation, but Xiu refused to budge.
Although she was weak, she was still full of energy. They glared at each other and quarreled fiercely again.
Although the quarrel between these two little guys was full of anger, it was not meaningful at all.
Lin Mengya let them be. After all, it was indeed necessary to relax after the tension.
However, now she was more interested in what Zhu Yun had said before that the music score for green stringed instrument was the key to defeating the Candle Dragon Cult.
However, these days, she had roughly looked through the music score for green stringed instrument. She searched for the keywords of the Candle Dragon Cult, but there was no clue at all.
Could it be that the secret was hidden in the original music score for green stringed instrument?
Fortunately, she had attracted most of the targets along the way. Before leaving, she had asked Yunzhu to assign a lot of masters to protect the people in the courtyard.
Presumably, there should be no problem with the original.
However, that pitch-black book that looked like a ball of ink, what kind of secret would it be hiding?
While thinking, Lin Mengya fell into a deep sleep at some point.
When she opened her eyes again, what she saw was still the shaking top of the horse carriage.
"I … haven't arrived yet?"
Lin Mengya, who didn't know how long she had slept, found that she had been changed into a clean set of clothes.
The water-pink muslin material was soft and comfortable, but a little too thin.
She got up slightly, and her black hair hung down, with a bit of jasmine fragrance.
Lin Mengya propped herself up in astonishment, only to find that Long Tianhao, who had also changed into a royal blue regular suit with cloud patterns and dragon patterns, was smiling at her helplessly.
"Did you sleep well?"
His gentle voice carried a tinge of indulgence.
Lin Mengya rubbed her head, which was a little swollen, and nodded.
She lifted the curtain of the horse carriage, only to find that the outside was full of starlight.
The night wind was slightly cold, which made her not proud. She put down the cotton curtain. She shrank her head and hid in the quilt.
"You've slept for a whole day. It was Hongyu and Xiu who helped you dress up and change your clothes."
Seeing Lin Mengya's puzzled look, Long Tianhao explained.
What? She had slept so deeply, and it was Xiu and Hongyu who had helped her bathe and change her clothes.
Suddenly, Lin Mengya felt that she wanted to find a hole to hide in.
How was this sleeping? She was practically a dead pig!
"Where are we … going?"
She didn't want to be entangled in this topic anymore. Anyway, she must have made a fool of herself today.
Lin Mengya blushed quietly and deliberately changed the topic.
However, although she changed the topic in a stiff way, Long Tianhao didn't care.
He put down the scroll in his hand and sat down beside Lin Mengya.
"We … are going back."
Lin Mengya blinked her eyes, full of questions.
Go back? Did Long Tianhao mean to go back to Dajin?
But why was it so fast?
