A demonic cultivator’s array formation was different from a spirit energy array formation. Only a demonic cultivator’s demonic qi could break it.
This was also the reason why devil cultivators were so arrogant all these years.
The demonic cultivator hiding in the river clearly had a high cultivation level. Otherwise, it was impossible for him to use the array formation to disappear into the river with Yun Ran in the blink of an eye.
Yun Ran waited by the river for a while. Seeing that the wretch did not appear, she could not be bothered to continue waiting.
It was already so late. She had to go back and coax her little packrats to sleep.
When she walked out of the forest, she saw a small village. She found a family and asked for directions before realizing that she was already more than ten miles away from the Imperial City.
Yun Ran did not stay and think too much about it.
After asking for the way back, she left behind a reward for the directions and continued in the direction of the Imperial City.
She wondered if MO Beiyuan had returned to the Yuan Mansion.
When Yun Ran returned to the Imperial City, she realized that the city gate seemed to have been sealed. A large group of guards in black uniforms were looking for something.
It seemed like something big had happened.
Yun Ran leaned over and heard the conversation of a few commoners. “I heard that the Yuan King is looking for someone! These are the 12 Divisions of the
Yuan King!”
“So these are the legendary 12 Divisions of the Yuan King! But who is this Yuan King looking for? Why did he mobilize so many people? Why did he even reveal the 12 Divisions that are usually elusive?”
“I heard he’s looking for a woman.”
“What woman? The woman beside the Yuan King? Could she be the second daughter of the Yun family who left home?”
“Of course, who else could it be other than that person? I heard that an accident happened when the two of them were setting up the river lamp by the river. That Second Miss was captured by the river ghost in the water!”
“River ghost? I’m afraid she’s doomed after being captured by that thing, right?”
The chatter grew louder. It was difficult for Yun Ran not to hear their conversation.
River ghost?
Was that thing that captured called a river ghost?
“Isn’t that so? I heard that the Yuan King and his men have searched the river for more than ten times, but they still can’t find any traces of the Second Miss of the Yun family or the river ghost. I’m afraid she’s already been eaten by the river ghost.”
Yun Ran had originally planned to return to the Yuan Mansion directly. Now, she decided to go to the river to look for MO Beiyuan first.
This was to prevent him from continuing to dive into the black winter river to search for her.
She returned to the place where she had fallen into the water.
Yun Ran waved her slender arm at him from afar. “MO Beiyuan! Stop looking.
I’m here.”
MO Beiyuan’s eyes trembled when he saw the pink figure not far away. The emotions that he had been suppressing in his eyes seemed to have suddenly erupted as he flew towards her.
Yun Ran saw a black shadow instantly move in front of her. It must have been because he had just entered the water. His hair was still dripping, and his clothes were drenched, emitting waves of cold.
MO Beiyuan came in front of her, grabbed Yun Ran’s back, and pulled her in front of him. Then, he leaned over slightly and pulled her into his arms.
His body was tense. His strong arms wrapped tightly around Yun Ran’s body, as if he was afraid that she would suddenly disappear.
Yun Ran’s body was wrapped around his so tightly that she was pressed against him. Her ears were filled with his rapidly beating heart.
After a while, Yun Ran felt the strength in her body lessen. She pursed her lips, raised her chin in his arms, and smiled at him.
“MO Beiyuan, I’m fine..”
