Chapter 574 I like to hear people whisper.
Upon seeing the opening, Lu Yangyang immediately shouted to the group, "Run!"
Without lingering in battle, the group quickly ran towards the dense forest.
Lu Yangyang quickly threw out several smoke balls to obstruct the surrounding view, and then took out a handful of small nails from her pocket and scattered them out.
I hadn't run far when I heard screams coming from behind me.
After running all the way into the dense forest, Lu Yangyang finally breathed a sigh of relief and stopped to catch her breath.
Li Shisan was so exhausted that his legs went weak, and he collapsed to the ground without caring about his image.
He had to run while keeping an eye on the flower stamens, which was no easier than for the others, and he was now completely exhausted.
Hua Rui's face turned deathly pale, and she was unable to speak.
"No one is chasing us, is there?" Li Shisan asked, catching his breath.
Mingruo looked into the distance and said, "There shouldn't be any for now."
Li Shisan let out a sigh of relief. "I'm exhausted."
"Useless." Yin Yueling glanced down at him condescendingly.
Li Shisan: "Hey, I'm telling you, you little rascal, you..."
Lu Yangyang looked at Yin Yueling in surprise: "How did you get here?"
Granny Yin said she and Yin Yueling would cover the retreat. Lu Yangyang thought Yin Yueling would stay with Granny Yin. She was so focused on running that she didn't pay much attention. In fact, Yin Yueling ran into the dense forest with them.
Lu Yangyang then had time to examine the Silver Moon Silk.
Yin Yueling had two long braids adorned with colorful silk threads and bells. She wore traditional Miao clothing, with small silver bells on her wrists and belt. She looked exceptionally delicate and beautiful, but her large, slightly light-colored eyes revealed a coldness that was incongruous with her age.
"I am the Holy Maiden of Miao territory. Apart from a few elders, no one in the entire Miao territory can surpass me in Gu techniques." Yin Yueling raised her chin, her eyebrows slightly raised, and pointed at Li Shisan: "If he can come, why can't I come along?"
Li Shisan's eyes widened. "Is this some kind of comparison?"
He got up from the ground, put his hands on his hips, and said helplessly, "Xiao Yueling, this is no joke. Not only is the dense forest dangerous, but do you know where we're going? You're coming with us. We're going to take care of important business. What are you doing following along, you little kid?"
Yin Yueling retorted without backing down: "Isn't it enough that a child is more useful than you?"
"You, you, you..." Li Shisan was so angry that he couldn't speak.
Yin Yueling tilted her head and looked at Lu Yangyang: "Aren't you going to Yuechuan Kingdom? As the Holy Maiden of Miao Jiang, even if you don't take me now, I will still go in two years. What difference does it make whether I go sooner or later? Besides, my Gu technique is now more powerful than all the Holy Maidens they have selected in the past."
Lu Yangyang really didn't expect this little girl to be so confident, but thinking about her performance just now, she did seem quite impressive: "It's not a matter of difference. Since you know we're going to Yuechuan Kingdom, you should know that it will be very dangerous, even life-threatening. If you're prepared, I have no objection."
This little girl is so confident that she even came along, which shows she has her own ideas. It's no use trying to persuade her to go back now.
But we still need to say the unpleasant things upfront.
Li Shisan quickly objected: "No, no, you're so young, what would you do there, you..."
“I’m ready.” Yin Yueling ignored Li Shisan and looked at Lu Yangyang: “From the moment I was born, my grandmother raised me as her heir. She didn’t actually want me to become a saintess because once I went to Yuechuan Kingdom, I wouldn’t be able to come back. But I really want to know what the most powerful Gu technique in this world is like. Whether I die at thirteen or fifteen doesn’t matter. What matters is where I go and what I do. Whether Yuechuan Kingdom is worth spending the rest of my life on is something I want to decide for myself.”
From birth, she was placed on high hopes by her mother-in-law, but she was also worried that if she went to Yuechuan Kingdom just to marry a nobleman and carry on the bloodline of Yuechuan Kingdom, it would be a waste of her talents. Therefore, her mother-in-law did not want her to participate in the selection of the Holy Maiden, but hoped that she could stay in Miao Jiang and take over her position as the Second Elder in the future.
But Yin Yueling didn't think that way. She didn't care what she would do in Yuechuan Kingdom in the future, but only if the Gu magic of Yuechuan Kingdom was worth her life's work. If it wasn't, she would rather die than waste her time there.
From the moment she became a saint, she had been waiting for that day to come, but her choices were never the same as others', and only she could decide her own destiny.
So when she learned that her mother-in-law was sending these people away from Yinhua Village to Yuechuan Kingdom, she immediately followed them.
Why would she wait two years for such a great opportunity?
Lu Yangyang understood her thoughts; she was quite an interesting little girl.
What does a predetermined fate matter? She has enough strength and talent to choose her own ending.
Lu Yangyang extended her hand to her: "Then, Holy Maiden, please take good care of me along the way."
Yin Yueling nodded proudly: "No problem, you're not bad either."
Li Shisan exclaimed in disbelief, "You actually managed to put this on? You little brat, you..."
Yin Yueling curled her lips and snorted: "I'm just a little younger than you, but I'm much braver. You've had your eye on Sister Huarui for years, but you haven't even dared to confess. How could there be such a cowardly man like you in our Miao region? Even if you were to become a live-in son-in-law in our Yinhua Village, no one would want you!"
"Hey, you!" Li Shisan hurriedly covered Yin Yueling's mouth. The usually steady and reliable young man's face turned red in an instant, and he didn't dare to look at Hua Rui's face at all.
Upon hearing Yin Yueling's words, Hua Rui's originally pale face flushed slightly, and she lowered her eyes to hide the bitterness in them.
How could she, someone who frequents the entertainment industry, not understand a man's eyes?
But from the moment she made that choice, it was no longer something she could choose.
Thirteen is a very good person, but in the past, all she cared about was finding her sister. Even though she had already noticed some things were wrong with her sister, she still made excuses to deceive herself, thinking that her sister might have many unspeakable difficulties. Then, she became obsessed and made one mistake after another.
That's what led to today's consequences.
So even if she knew what the Thirteenth Brother was thinking, what right did she have to think about these things now?
Yin Yueling's quick tongue caused the scene to fall silent. Lu Yangyang was thinking of saying something to change the subject when she turned her head and saw Yin Yueling's giant python with a head much larger than a person standing behind her, intently listening to gossip.
Lu Yangyang almost burst out laughing: "Is your big pet this gossipy too?"
Yin Yueling blinked and pried Li Shisan's hand away: "Ajiao just likes to listen to people whispering."
Lu Yangyang: "I have a good friend, and we should have a lot in common."
Yin Yueling asked happily, "Really? What's her name?"
Lu Yangyang: "Jiaojiao."
