Chapter 993: Chapter 993: Disappearing into Thin Air

Long Rui looked at the two figures, one large and one small, right before his eyes, within arm’s reach. With a stretch of his long arm, they would fall right into his grasp.

Unexpectedly, there just happened to be a bend up ahead.

The figures, one large and one small, flashed by, and in the blink of an eye, vanished at the turn.

"Thinking of running? No chance."

Long Rui’s form flickered as he chased after them.

Who would have known that there was no one to be found behind the turn.

"Eh? Where did they go?"

The situation was exactly the same as inside Qinger Building; the woman had disappeared out of thin air once again.

Long Rui’s eyes narrowed as he looked around.

Unnoticed, they had left the main street and run into a small alleyway.

Unlike the brightly lit main street, it was somewhat dark here, but even so, with the dim light of the moon, Long Rui could see clearly that there was nobody around.

"Master."

Long Yi, along with a few guards, hurried over, gasping for air.

It goes without saying that the master’s qinggong is extraordinary, but who would have thought that an ordinary woman and a little kid could run so fast.

"Where are they?"

Long Yi looked around but saw no sign of the woman and the child; puzzled, he asked.

"Today is really surreal!" Long Rui muttered to himself.

"What happened? Master, have they disappeared again?" Long Yi was well aware of the scene at Qinger Building earlier; both the woman and the sudden appearance of the kid were filled with strangeness.

Their actions and behaviors were even more inexplicable.

"Exactly, I was just about to capture them right here, and they somehow vanished into thin air." Long Rui remained on full alert, watching for any stirrings around him, fearing that the woman might suddenly appear like before at Qinger Building.

The night grew deeper, and the moon had risen. Now deep into autumn, the breeze brought with it a hint of chill.

Besides the rustling wind, no human figure was to be found.

"Master, they must have left. Let’s return as well," Long Yi suggested, wrapping his clothes tighter around himself.

Long Rui also felt that it was meaningless to continue waiting.

He had no choice but to leave with his subordinates.

As they walked away, he said, "Long Yi, today’s events are truly bizarre. Go and investigate the origins of this woman for me."

"Yes, your subordinate will handle this matter thoroughly. Rest assured, master."

"Hmm!"

Long Rui, with his head spinning from the night’s occurrences, decided to return to his residence to rest well and sort through the events.

As their figures faded away down the street.

The alley that was previously deserted.

Once again, out of nowhere, the forms of one large and one small figure appeared.

"That plague god is finally gone," Xuexue let out with a lingering fear.

The Little Baby, back to looking around four or five years old said, "I think you’re just itching for a fight. Why did you provoke him for no reason?"

Everyone in Moli Country knew that the War Prince was called the Ghost King; not only was he ugly, but he was also cruel in his actions and possessed great power within the court. He was not one to be trifariously trifled with.

"It’s you who’s itching to fight!"

"Right right, I forgot you’re a girl," the Divine Beast quickly corrected itself.

"Stop your jabbering, let’s head back to the mansion. It’s already past midnight."

Xuexue looked around. The moon was already high above the willows. Since leaving Madam Xie’s place and after causing such a scene at Qinger Building, several shichen had passed by in the blink of an eye. Who knew into what chaos the General’s Mansion had descended due to her disappearance.

"Right, let’s hurry back. Otherwise, that woman in the house may stir up some other trouble," said the Divine Beast.
