Outside the mountain temple.

Shen Muli looked at the temple door with cold eyes and glanced at his men. "Catch them alive."

He wanted to see who was so capable that he could single-handedly arrest people from his Ye Youting.

If this matter... spreads out, his majesty in Yeyouting will be wiped out.

"Be good." Shen Muli touched Hei Lang's head.

The wolf bared its teeth at the temple door, showing its ferocity.

None of the surrounding men dared approach the wolf. The wolf was so ferocious and cruel that Shen Muli almost fed it with human flesh.

The temple door was suddenly opened, and the black wolf rushed in first.

He Lianxiao subconsciously took off his coat and covered Chao Ge, looking at the black wolf with cold eyes.

The little beast raised by Shen Muli?

Yuan Bao pretended to be asleep on the haystack, secretly opened one eye, and was frightened by the evil wolf so that his face turned pale. "Mother! There is a wolf..."

On the grassland, their mother and son narrowly escaped death. They were chased by wolves and bitten by dogs. Those days were like scars that Yuan Bao could never forget.

"Come here." Chaoge hugged Yuanbao tightly in his arms.

Black Wolf bared his teeth and looked at He Lianxiao, but he didn't dare to get close.

He Lianxiao's aura of violence was too strong. After all, he was a battle-hardened general.

"Master Shen stayed up in the middle of the night and took this beast out for a walk?" He Lianxiao asked with a frown.

Shen Muli was stunned for a moment and his face darkened. Why was He Lianxiao here?

"Chasing the fugitive, we just happened to... catch up here." Shen Muli narrowed his eyes and focused on Chao Ge.

Chao Ge seemed to be scared and hugged Yuan Bao tightly.

He Lianxiao frowned and stood in front of Shen Muli, blocking his sight. "There is no fugitive you are looking for here, let your people get out."

"General Helian, an important prisoner has escaped from Yeyouting. I am following the emperor's orders to pursue him. You seem to have no right to stop him." Shen Muli avoided Helianxiao and wanted to get closer to Chaoge.

Chao Ge pretended to be nervous and hugged Yuan Bao tightly.

"The figure of the prisoner... seems to be somewhat similar to Princess Chaoge." Shen Muli said with a smile.

He Lianxiao's face darkened and he raised his hand to stop Shen Muli. "What on earth do you want to do? She and I have always been together."

"General, are you sure Chao Ge has never left your sight?" Shen Muli asked with deep meaning.

He Lianxiao was stunned for a moment and glanced at Chao Ge.

Chao Ge's eyes were red and his face was pale.

Inexplicably, his heart tightened, and He Lianxiao spoke in a deep voice. "She was seriously injured, poisoned, and ran away from the house in anger. She even has trouble walking. You said she went to rob the prison?"

Yuge said that there are many people in Kyoto who want Chao Ge's life, and Shen Muli will definitely bear the brunt.

He is the emperor's minion, specially used to eliminate the remnants of the Wu clan.

And Chaoge... is the bloodline of the Wu clan.

Even though he knew this, He Lianxiao still subconsciously protected Chao Ge.

Because He Lianxiao knew very well what would happen to Chao Ge once he fell into Ye Youting.

"Seriously injured? General Helian can't even protect his wife. Why don't you quit and let me guard you." Shen Muli smiled like a fox and stepped forward to check Chaoge's injury. "The injury is here. Where? Why don't you, princess, follow me back to Yeyouting? I will investigate clearly and clear your name."

Chao Ge held He Lianxiao's clothes tightly and looked at He Lianxiao nervously. "Axiao..."

"Shen Muli!" He Lianxiao drew his sword and put it against Shen Muli's neck.

"The Wu Clan's matter is a big deal, even if it comes to His Majesty..." Shen Muli smiled and struck He Lianxiao's sword.

"Whether it is to investigate the matter of the Wu clan or to use this matter to try to touch my people, you know best." He Lianxiao said coldly, indicating that Shen Muli had better not provoke him.

Chaoge has a special status, and Shen Muli, a fox, will definitely take the opportunity to investigate, and even want to get rid of her to avoid future troubles.

Slowly taking a step back, Shen Muli glanced at Hei Lang.

The black wolf's eyes were downcast as he sniffed around the temple.

Chao Ge tightened his hold on Yuan Bao, worried that Yu Heng would be discovered.

Black Wolf arrived at the altar table, bared his teeth, and stayed for a moment.

Chaoge's heart tightened.

Fortunately, the medicinal powder worked, and the black wolf just stopped for a moment and continued to smell other places.

"General Helian doesn't have to be so protective. Guaiguai has a keen sense of smell. No matter the prisoner or the prisoner, there will be nowhere to hide." Shen Muli leaned against the door frame with a smile, and his eyes fell on Chao Ge.

What he said was meant for Chao Ge.

During the day, he also deliberately let Chao Ge see Yu Heng.

That night, Yuheng was robbed.

Is there such a coincidence?

The black wolf slowly approached Chaoge.

Yuan Bao crawled into Chao Ge's arms in fear. "Mother..."

Chao Ge patted Yuan Bao comfortingly and looked at the black wolf with cold eyes.

Hei Lang's fierce eyes looked at Chao Ge, and he actually got cold feet.

He snorted and rubbed his head against Chao Ge.

Chao Ge breathed a sigh of relief and raised his hand to touch the wolf's head.

Fortunately...she has the bloodline of controlling Gu in Southern Xinjiang, so she can naturally feel close to these beasts, snakes and insects.

Shen Muli's eyes darkened again and again. Is it really not Chao Ge?

"Yuanbao, has your mother been anywhere else tonight?" Shen Muli aimed at Yuanbao.

Yuan Bao hid behind Chao Ge in fear.

"Yuanbao, come here." He Lianxiao stretched out his hand to signal Yuanbao to come over.

Yuan Bao hated He Lianxiao, but this uncle with the wolf was even more terrifying.

Holding tightly on He Lianxiao's clothes, Yuan Bao looked at He Lianxiao with red eyes.

He Lianxiao's heart tightened, and he actually felt sorry for this little wolf cub. "Don't be afraid, just say whatever he asks."

"Mom was injured and passed out here. We have been waiting for dad." Yuan Bao knew that he had to please He Lianxiao so that his mother's life would be easier.

He is only five years old, but he has already learned to observe words and emotions.

"Really?" Shen Muli's voice was cold, obviously not believing what Yuan Bao said. "But I saw your mother outside. Children can't lie. If you lie, you will be eaten by wolves."

Shen Muli deliberately scared Yuan Bao.

He Lianxiao looked at Shen Muli warningly. "Master Shen's reputation for being able to cure children's cries at night is indeed well-deserved. He even scares children."

"Mother didn't go out. Mother has been here all the time. You are a liar." Yuan Bao looked at Shen Muli with bared teeth and insisted that Chao Ge had not left.

Shen Muli smiled and said nothing.

Suddenly, there was a rustling sound from the corner. The black wolf immediately waited outside the window alertly, jumped out, and quickly pursued.

Shen Muli raised his hand to indicate, "Chase."

…

Shen Muli and others left. Chao Ge breathed a sigh of relief and fell to the ground unable to hold on.

"Mother!" Yuan Bao ran over in fear.

He Lianxiao held Chao Ge in his arms and asked in a deep voice, "It's really not you?"

"General, you think too highly of me..." Chao Ge coughed, his face getting paler. "Now... I don't even have the strength to push you away."

After saying that, he rested his head on He Lianxiao's shoulder.

He Lianxiao's body stiffened and his heartbeat sped up inexplicably.

It's really strange... Why does his body seem to be out of control whenever this woman comes near?

"Go back home." He picked up Chao Ge and looked at the position of the altar table thoughtfully.

With his keen hearing, he could naturally tell that there was someone hiding there.

Looking back at Chao Ge, He Lianxiao remained silent and did not speak.
