Chapter 516: Chapter 516 What the Fox Saw

After a while, she opened her eyes, no longer harboring the hostility she had before.

"How is it?" Wu Yunlan asked with concern.

"There is indeed no Witch Crow on them," Wu Nuan honestly expressed.

Li Wenli nodded earnestly: "We truly are innocent, and as for this Witch Crow, it sounds wicked just by hearing its name. Even if we had it, we wouldn’t know how to use it, so why would we want it?"

The fox’s words came from the heart, and even the skeptical Wu Yunlan couldn’t find fault with them.

In truth they hadn’t taken it, they had simply burned it.

It would be a bit difficult for these ladies to retrieve the Witch Crow now, as it had already been burnt to ashes with nothing left.

After all, the Fire Spirit summoned by Li Wenli was like the Samadhi True Fire, how could a tiny insect withstand that?

The corners of the fox’s mouth curled up imperceptibly.

The Saintesses, once again at a dead end with their clues, began to grow anxious.

"Where has the Witch Crow gone?"

Wu Nuan looked at her calmly and shook her head: "Since a moment ago, my connection with the Witch Crow has been severed. I could feel its presence earlier, but now it has vanished into thin air."

"How is that possible?" Wu Yunlan’s complexion turned exceedingly ugly.

"That’s why I kept the traitor alive, ready to interrogate him thoroughly, but the Elder Uncle killed him, and our only clue is gone," Wu Nuan spoke coldly, as Wu Yunlan’s face became even paler.

"How was I supposed to know! I saw him trying to get up and flee, thinking you were being indecisive again, which is why I took action. If there’s anyone to blame, it’s your own track record that’s to blame!"

Everyone glanced at the pair, ready to tear into each other, and kept silent.

It was said that the successor to Witch Ancestor Mountain hadn’t been decided yet, and all 16 Saintesses had a chance.

And these 16 contenders for Saintess, each with her own camp, didn’t get along with each other.

It would be best for ordinary people to avoid getting entangled in their internal struggles.

No one knew who would be the final victor.

Their contention with each other was by no means less intense than the princes fighting outside, and might even be crueller.

After all, these Saintesses were no pushovers, with each one skilled in the art of raising gu that was frightening to behold.

As the groups faced off proudly and aggressively, the sky gradually lightened, and the chickens in many homes began to crow.

Bai Junjun yawned inappropriately.

And this yawn successfully attracted the attention of Wu Nuan and Wu Yunlan.

Wu Yunlan gave Bai Junjun a look and couldn’t help but sneer: "Little girl, do you think this doesn’t concern you, that you can just stand by idly?"

"..." Bai Junjun was speechless,

What else was she to do? Join in on the quarrel?

Before Bai Junjun could speak, Li Wenli was already smiling and coming to her defense.

"Please forgive us, Saintesses, we were merely passing by and have no intention of getting involved in your conflict.

Now that the misunderstanding has been cleared up, perhaps you all should also be on your way?

You continue searching for your item, and we need to find the County Magistrate to get our departure stamped. After all, with the delay, it will be difficult to traverse Three-Branch Junction."

They were naturally clearer about the rules of Three-Branch Junction than anyone else, and Wu Nuan, being a reasonable person, nodded: "Since the misunderstanding has been resolved, you may leave on your own terms."

"Many thanks for the Saintess’s understanding," Li Wenli bowed to Wu Nuan.

Ah Dao, seeing his own master had bowed, could only follow suit and bend at the waist to Wu Nuan.

However, Wu Yunlan frowned in displeasure: "No! You two are the only ones who have been in contact with the traitor. If you leave, who will assist us in finding the Sacred Object?"

Li Wenli looked at her indifferently: "I hope the Saintess understands, we have made clear the process of our contact with the traitor, and furthermore, you have checked us and found nothing on our person resembling the Witch Crow."
