Chapter 341

Chapter 341: Looking for the Moon Goddess and Fei Yan for Help? You’re quite spot on!

“You want us to betray the Yin-Yang School?”

Bai Siming instantly realized Li Mo’s intention.

When he said “we,” it was because there was also an Ehuang.

With Nu Ying in his grasp, he let Ehuang go.

The purpose was to make Ehuang cautious and obedient to him.

Nu Ying also understood, frowning as she looked at Li Mo.

To betray the Yin-Yang School, if discovered by Donghuang Taiyi, would mean certain death.

It turned out that the one left behind was not the most dangerous.

On the contrary, it was the one he freed that was!

Bai Siming looked towards Hei Siming, who was separated by the Black Jade Kirin.

After thinking for a moment, she resolutely nodded in agreement.

“Alright, I can serve you.”

“Bai!”

Hei Siming was taken aback, shaking her head vigorously.

Betraying Donghuang Taiyi was more terrifying than death itself.

But Bai Siming’s attitude remained exceptionally resolute.

Staring hard at Li Mo, she stated seriously, “I can serve you, but you must ensure my sister’s safety.”

Li Mo smiled slightly and replied, “You can rest assured about that; there is no place in this world safer than where I am.”

It wasn’t boasting; it was the truth.

Although it may seem from the outside that there were no guards around him,

countless eyes, both visible and hidden, were watching the foot of the mountain, not to mention the experts within the courtyard.

Even if Donghuang Taiyi came personally, he wouldn’t be able to take anyone away!

“Then it’s a deal. Take care, sister.”

Upon hearing Bai Siming’s determined tone, Hei Siming could only nod in resignation.

“You be careful, and if he really makes you do anything that threatens the Yin-Yang School, then don’t worry about me.”

Hei Siming understood well the fate of betraying the Yin-Yang School.

After Bai Siming left, Li Mo urged the Black Jade Kirin to take Nu Ying and Hei Siming away.

Now, if calculated, over half of the Yin-Yang School was already in his grasp.

The remaining ones include one Left Protector Star Soul, the Earth Elder, the Metal Elder, and the Fire Elder Da Shiming.

As for the strongest Dongjun and Fei Yan, that’s another matter.

Right now—constantly thinking about when she might have a child of her own.

In that case, the Yin-Yang School is no longer a concern.

Aside from Donghuang Taiyi, the others couldn’t really pose any threat.

All seven copper boxes have been collected; the next step is to unlock this secret that has been hidden for hundreds of years.

Bai Siming left the ruins of the Palace of the King of Chu unimpeded.

Now she needs to find someone.

Someone in a similar situation as hers.

Lady Ehuang is injured and shouldn’t be too far away at this time.

Bai Siming spent a few days and indeed found her outside the city.

“Why are you back? Where is Nu Ying?”

Lady Ehuang, who was recuperating, was startled to see Bai Siming return unharmed.

Bai Siming plopped down next to her and sighed listlessly, “He let me go; Nu Ying and my Senior Sister are still in his hands.”

“He let you go?”

Lady Ehuang was first taken aback but quickly reacted.

“Did he command you to obey him?”

Seeing Bai Siming nod, Lady Ehuang couldn’t help but grit her silver teeth tightly: “What a despicable man!”

Bai Siming might have vented enough complaints over these days, or perhaps she was too worried about Hei Siming to say much.

With a troubled expression, she asked, “Lady Ehuang, what should we do now? Hei and Nu Ying are in his grasp, and if we don’t listen to him, they will die. But if we do, we will be worse off than dead.”

At this moment, Bai Siming was at a loss.

She came to see Lady Ehuang precisely to ask if she had any solutions.

However, if Lady Ehuang had a solution, she wouldn’t have waited until now.

The two fell into silence together.

After a while, Lady Ehuang suddenly lifted her head.

“I have a plan!”

Bai Siming’s face brightened: “Really? What plan?”

Lady Ehuang spoke calmly: “We go to the Qin State, to Xi’an.”

“What do we do there?”

Xi’an is the stronghold of Li Mo.

In the recently pacified Chu State, they had no way to rescue anyone, let alone in Xi’an.

She had already wasted several days looking for Lady Ehuang.

Li Mo’s group would likely return to Xi’an shortly.

Lady Ehuang stood up, looking down at the lovely Bai Siming, and said, “He wants us to be his spies; have you forgotten that we also have eyes around him in the Yin-Yang School?”

Upon hearing this, Bai Siming immediately thought of someone.

She also stood up and said, “Are you referring to Lady Dongjun?”

Lady Ehuang nodded: “Not just Dongjun, but also the Moon Goddess Protector.”

Fei Yan has a cold personality and may not care about them.

In comparison, the Moon Goddess is generally more concerned for her subordinates.

The four of them had not only failed this task but also lost two to the enemy.

Now, the only ones who could help them were the Moon Goddess and Fei Yan, who were in Xi’an.

Moreover, their Wood & Water Departments’ superiors were the Moon Goddess.

Given the current situation, it was only right to report to her.

Lady Ehuang didn’t even have time to heal her injuries.

She and Bai Siming rushed toward Xi’an without pause.

The Moon Goddess’s Astrology Tower had become a landmark building outside the Xi’an Palace.

The seven-story, 273-foot tower, for that era, could be considered a marvel no matter where it was.

Upon the sudden visit of the two, however, the Moon Goddess did not show any surprise.

She remained in her ethereal, aloof demeanor, seated on the jade platform.

Lady Ehuang and Bai Siming knelt respectfully in the grand hall, patiently waiting.

They had recounted the events that had occurred previously, but the Moon Goddess remained silent.

The two didn’t dare rush her and could only obediently wait.

“Rise.”

Finally, the Moon Goddess, who had not responded, opened her bright moon-like eyes.

Suddenly, the dim hall seemed to brighten a bit.

The two slowly stood up, and Bai Siming spoke anxiously: “Please, Lord Moon Goddess, lend us your assistance.”

The Moon Goddess looked at her with a calm gaze and said slowly, “With the National Advisor holding her, even if I wish to save them, I have no capability to do so.”

If I can’t even save them with intention, then don’t mention it without intention!

Lady Ehuang had actually anticipated this outcome long ago.

They did not come this time expecting the Moon Goddess to rescue anyone.

Rather, they wanted the Moon Goddess to persuade Fei Yan to help.

In the Yin-Yang School, the only ones who dared to speak to Fei Yan are the supreme Donghuang Taiyi and the Moon Goddess, who relies on her relationship as Fei Yan’s Senior Sister.
