Wedding Night: I Am Forced To Marry A Dragon Girl
Chapter 1668 Pursuit!

Chapter 1668: Chapter 1668 Pursuit!

Jiang Xiaobai stared blankly at Lin YaoYao behind the counter.

Could this woman have some connection to Bai He?

He suddenly recalled what that guy who came looking for him had said earlier—Lin YaoYao was important, and it was essential to build a good relationship!

Jiang Xiaobai felt his mind buzzing in chaos!

"Why can’t I sit here?"

Lin YaoYao’s expression remained indifferent. "Even though the pawnshop is closed, someone still needs to watch over it. At worst, I just won’t sell you any information."

"Aren’t you Lin YaoYao, the demoness of the Demon Emperor’s Palace?" Jiang Xiaobai arched an eyebrow.

"I am, but who said I can’t work here?"

Lin YaoYao curled her lips. "Alright, if there’s nothing else, you two should leave. I’m not selling any intel, and don’t bother asking me anything else—I won’t say a word."

Saying that, she truly acted like a typical pawnshop worker, leaning over the counter and preparing to nap.

This scene shocked Jiang Xiaobai, and even more so Ao Yan!

She knew of Lin YaoYao, and this was the first meeting between the two women. She couldn’t help but feel immense curiosity about her.

But Jiang Xiaobai said nothing more and quickly dragged Ao Yan away.

"Such strange people... But somehow, this pawnshop feels even weirder..."

Lin YaoYao murmured as she prepared to follow through with the instructions given to her about minding the shop.

It was then that she noticed a treasure hanging at her waist was flashing with light!

"Jiang Xiaobai is nearby?"

Lin YaoYao shot up, her mood stirred!

The last time, she had come here under the lead of White Rainbow Valley’s saint, Li Feng, and learned some peculiar things. Now, she no longer harbored any hostility toward Jiang Xiaobai!

On the contrary, she greatly wanted to find Jiang Xiaobai!

"Damn it, why did I agree to that guy’s request to watch the shop? Now I can’t even go look for him!"

Lin YaoYao was fuming, suddenly recalling the two people she had just seen.

Especially the one who spoke—there was something strangely familiar about his tone and voice.

"No... It couldn’t be, was that just now Jiang Xiaobai?"

Lin YaoYao froze in place, dumbstruck.

...

Walking out of the pawnshop, Jiang Xiaobai’s thoughts were tangled.

The mysteries were piling up, and he was now suffocating with waves of despair.

Why did everyone have to hide things? Couldn’t they just tell him everything outright?

Even if he knew, so what?

"Xiaobai, I think we should head outside the city. Staying here feels dangerous to me."

Ao Yan suddenly spoke up; in that brief moment earlier, she had sensed impending death!

Jiang Xiaobai also felt he couldn’t remain in the city any longer. Without hesitation, the two hurried toward the outskirts, planning to find a place to wait until the mountain range opened.

Not long after they left, a shadow appeared at the spot they had been standing.

"Found you."

The shadow’s lips curled into a bloodthirsty smile.

...

"What did you say? Jiang Xiaobai came by?"

A white-haired young man stared dumbfounded at Lin YaoYao.

"I... I’m not sure if it was him, but my treasure reacted, and his tone and voice... I think it sounded a lot like him!"

Upon hearing this, Bai He immediately slapped his thigh.

"Damn, there’s trouble now!"

In the next instant, Bai He vanished, leaving Lin YaoYao alone in the shop, lost in thought.

Bai He reappeared, standing by the side of the Great Emperor Ziwei.

"Trouble?"

A woman in a green dress sitting behind the screen nodded lightly.

"He came to the pawnshop!"

Bai He quickly said, "That boy is in danger!"

"No rush. Now that he knows about the pawnshop, he’ll definitely come looking for you. Exposure is inevitable."

The woman in green said calmly, "Let’s observe how things develop. If he can’t even handle this, there’s no point in entering the mountain range."

"So heartless—don’t you think this is going too far?"

Bai He raised an eyebrow. "If that boy learns the truth, he’ll undoubtedly overturn everything. Don’t blame me if you can’t manage the fallout later."

"I’m fully aware of that. You don’t need to say more. Do what you’re supposed to and stay out of what doesn’t concern you. Understood?"

With that, Bai He had nothing left to say. He had always disliked the superiority displayed by those in the Heavenly Court.

Snorting coldly, Bai He vanished.

At the same time, the Great Emperor Ziwei moved, disappearing from her original position.

The woman in green slowly lifted her teacup, a hint of lament flickering in her eyes.

"It seems you really have... forgotten everything..."

...

Jiang Xiaobai and Ao Yan walked through the dense forest outside the city. The vast mountain range in the sky cast a shadow over everything, plunging the forest into near darkness.

"Xiaobai, I keep feeling like someone is watching us."

Ao Yan suddenly spoke up.

Jiang Xiaobai’s expression turned serious. He felt the same, but he couldn’t locate the source. Even when using the power of the Primordial Chaos Grinding Disk to investigate, he found nothing.

Still, since both of them felt it, it clearly wasn’t just an illusion!

Someone was indeed following them!

"If even my search efforts fail, it must be at least an Immortal Emperor. Sure enough, blending with so much of the Heavenly Dao has resulted in power far exceeding my level."

Jiang Xiaobai murmured to himself.

After all, combat strength was one thing, but other abilities were a whole different matter.

Concealment techniques at the Immortal Emperor level were impossible to uncover except by someone of equal rank.

"Stay alert."

Jiang Xiaobai squeezed Ao Yan’s hand. "If anything happens, don’t fight back immediately—just focus on escaping."

Ao Yan nodded, scanning their surroundings.

While the city outskirts posed risks, the situation within the city was far more complex. Numerous forces were searching for Jiang Xiaobai, and the slightest misstep could lead to exposure.

They were better off outside. Even if they were discovered, there was room for maneuver. In the city, they’d be trapped like fish in a barrel, waiting to die!

Suddenly, a streak of silver light flashed from behind. Jiang Xiaobai felt his pores tighten in alarm and instinctively tackled Ao Yan to the ground.

Bang!

Several trees upfront were instantly pierced by the silver light. The attack didn’t seem overly powerful, but Jiang Xiaobai knew that if it struck him, he’d be dead without question!

Someone was indeed there!

"Split up?" Ao Yan shouted hurriedly.

"No, too dangerous. We stay together! Run!"

Jiang Xiaobai grabbed Ao Yan’s arm and leapt up, just as another streak of silver light struck the ground where they’d been.

It was far too perilous!

The silver light moved with incredible speed, and there was no warning—it was impossible for Jiang Xiaobai to deduce where it had even come from!

The two sprinted through the dense forest, while behind them, a figure in black watched with a cold grin, following leisurely.

"You won’t escape."

The figure in black sneered, clearly enjoying the thrill of the hunt!

The chase played out, the tension on Jiang Xiaobai’s end mounting, while the figure in black remained unhurried. The stark difference only added to Jiang Xiaobai’s pressure.

He had already concluded that the pursuer must surpass the Immortal Emperor level!

Could it be a Supreme Immortal?

"Damn it, barely out here and I run into a Supreme Immortal—how ridiculously unlucky!"

"Yan’er, listen, here’s the plan..."

Jiang Xiaobai explained, and Ao Yan immediately nodded. Without hesitation, she turned and started running in another direction.
