Chapter 1600: Chapter 1422: Stormy Night in Jianghu

"Of course, look at that monster. Without the Giant Gu, who knows how many more people it would have eaten this time? And our Mountain Forest, the terraced fields, I’m afraid they wouldn’t have been spared either."

"Have you heard? It’s all thanks to a girl this time. No matter what, we must hold a grand celebratory feast, right?"

"..."

Hearing this, Yun Xiao suddenly tugged at Xia Dabao’s arm, "Let’s go."

"Where?" Xia Dabao asked, still lost in contemplation of the battle between the giant creatures, unable to snap out of it for a long time.

"We’ve talked about it; if you don’t leave now, it’ll be too late," Yun Xiao said.

"Okay, I’ll go with you!" Xia Dabao also realized what was happening and turned to follow Yun Xiao down the mountain.

But as Xia Dabao was about to leave, Xuan Nu and the little Goddess surrounded them, "Hey, where are you going?"

"It’s none of your business," Yun Xiao said.

"How can it not be? You are our Moon Heart Tribe’s son-in-law, and your affairs are our affairs. By the way, I think I saw the Goddess coming up the mountain. Didn’t she look for you?" Xuan Nu asked.

"No!" Yun Xiao attempted to leave but was stopped again by the little Goddess, "Yun Xiao, there’s surely going to be a victory feast in the next few days. After the feast, you’ll return to the Chi Xia tribe, right? I heard Lady Dabao is going back to the Central Plains too."

Unable to free himself, Yun Xiao had to call Bei Shan over to help deal with them.

Bei Shan, who was with Hong Yan, didn’t dare to meddle and simply pretended not to see.

Finally, it was Hong Yan who shot Bei Shan a glare, "Hurry up and go block Peach Blossom."

Only then did Bei Shan leap in front of Xuan Nu and the little Goddess, "Ladies, I’ll keep you company..."

Yun Xiao quickly pulled Xia Dabao away and they ran.

Xia Dabao didn’t know why Yun Xiao insisted on escaping, but she trusted there must be a reason. He said it was the best chance to escape, while everyone’s attention was not on her.

The two descended the mountain and ran in the opposite direction of the Imperial Palace.

"Yun Xiao, if you take me away this time, you’ll definitely be punished. How about this, why don’t you come with me?" Xia Dabao asked as they ran.

"Go with you? And then what? Become a son-in-law at your family’s home?" Yun Xiao still had the mood for light-hearted banter.

"That depends on my parents. If they agree, I have no objections. If they disagree, you can be my brother, and I’ll ask my dad to find you a wife in the village. I guarantee you’ll be satisfied!"

"Let’s not entertain that idea. First, I don’t want to marry you; you are too much trouble. Second, with my purple hair, wouldn’t the girls in your village be scared to death at the sight of me?"

"I’m the troublesome one? Forget it, if you don’t want to marry, then don’t. Like I want to marry you? I’m just looking for someone to marry arbitrarily because I can’t get married in my locality. Someone like you, I don’t even fancy," Xia Dabao kept up the banter with Yun Xiao as they ran.

Since they were escaping, they naturally took the back roads, the more secluded, the better, so no one would catch up.

However, while running, Yun Xiao suddenly plunged to the ground.

Xia Dabao panicked for a moment, thinking Yun Xiao had been tripped by something, but then realized that couldn’t be the case with Yun Xiao’s superb light-footed skills.

At the moment, Yun Xiao was clutching his chest, beads of sweat the size of beans pouring from his forehead, as he urged her, "Go, run fast!"

"Yun Xiao, what’s happened to you?" Xia Dabao absolutely couldn’t abandon Yun Xiao at a time like this.

"It’s too late, hurry, run!"

"Yun Xiao, I..."

Before Xia Dabao could finish speaking, she heard the sound of a flute drawing nearer. When the flute stopped, a booming voice followed, "Yun Xiao, do you think you can escape?"
