Chapter 754 Hide Her Actual Situation from Them

Lin Zhongyu did this with his back to Canying, so Canying did not notice his little trick at all.

After hesitating for a moment, Canying awkwardly smiled. The atmosphere became a little strange.

At the moment, he didn’t know whether to go or not.

If that woman really died and he offended the envoy because of this, wouldn’t he suffer a great loss?

“Sir, please don’t say that. I didn’t mean to go against you. Nevertheless... it’s of great significance, so I have to be cautious. Please don’t get me wrong,” Canying said.

The cold fragrance seemed to have integrated into the air that was not fresh in the cave.

Xiaoyu stopped sneering and did not answer, leaning against the stone wall casually and taking a nap.

Canying had no idea what the envoy had up his sleeve.

Gritting his teeth, Canying excused himself and led his men into the tunnel.

“Damn it!” Lin Zhongyu cursed. Of course, he was aware what Canying and his men were going to do. But since Lin Mengya had her plan, they presumably could not get what they wanted.

Calculating the time, he realized they had stayed here for three or four days. Long Tianyu and Qinghu, who cared about Lin Mengya a lot, should be on the way here now in any case.

As he thought, he showed complicated feelings in his eyes. He knew his sister’s character best. If she intended to hide her actual situation from them, she must have made a perfect plan.

However, Long Tianyu...

Hopefully, Long Tianyu would not make any trouble.

Although the copper slaves were numb to cold, if they kept staying outside, they would be frozen stiff.

Therefore, Canying instructed them to come into the cave every once in a while to warm themselves before taking their turns on duty outside.

Although the cave was on the hillside, a lot of noises could be heard at the entrance of the cave.

They, who were only slaves acting on instructions, naturally were not as perceptive and sensitive as normal people.

Thus, they did not notice a group of people sneaking up the mountain not far away.

Long Tianyu wrapped his slender figure tightly in his black cloak, and his deep and slanted eyes were bloodshot at the moment.

The tired look on his handsome face caused by the journey over the past few days made him look even more haggard.

He tried hard to suppress the anxiety in his eyes and just wanted to find out if his beloved woman was alright.

“Oh, no, it’s the copper slaves of the Blood Hall!” Qinghu, who had a snow-white cloak draped over his shoulders and stood beside Long Tianyu, narrowed his eyes to stare at the cave entrance not far away and said.

Others might be unaware of the origins of these people, but he knew them the best.

It was because if it were not for his good look and young age, it was very likely that he would have become one of them.

Before they became copper slaves, they had to go through much more unbearable pain than he had gone through.

And yet, although they could make it through that, they, who were trained in this way, were hard nuts to crack.

This time, Long Tianyu and Qinghu didn’t bring many people up the mountain. If they fought with the copper slaves, they might not gain the upper hand.

After all, the copper slaves were numb to pain, so what they had learned were all extremely violent blows that were tremendously difficult to tackle.

They would probably have a hard time.

“What are copper slaves?” Long Tianyu asked in a hoarse voice.

Although he deliberately lowered his voice, he sounded obviously anxious.

After giving a quick explanation, Qinghu clutched Long Tianyu’s hand to stop him who was anxious to take action.

Then Qinghu said, “Calm down. I think she should still be alright. The person capable of mobilizing so many copper slaves must not be a nobody. If she is really captured by them, we can just wait and see, as we will have a greater chance to save her.”

Long Tianyu knew what Qinghu said made sense, but he couldn’t bear to wait while his beloved woman was captured by the enemy.

When he and Qinghu went to wipe out the minions of the Candle Dragon Cult, a group of mysterious men proficient in martial arts descended from the sky.

Although he did not ask Lin Mengya in person, he roughly figured out what was going on.

Lin Mengya, who was too sick to walk without help, had made a thorough plan for him.

He always neglected her intelligence and cunningness and only treated her as an ordinary woman.

However, how could she, who was able to recover and regain her vitality after taking rank poison, be knocked out by the knockout drops, which even failed to knock him out?

Moreover, Qian Hua appeared out of nowhere, and Hou Yuetian seemed hesitant before they left.

Why did he, who could see through anyone else’s disguise, fail to see through her forced smile and trick?

The trip to the snow mountain was arduous, and she had only a slim chance of neutralizing the poison in her body.

He could not let his beloved woman face all this alone.

If she died, he would die peacefully in the pure white snow with her.

“I can’t wait any longer. Qinghu, everyone can die except for you. I’m sorry.” As Long Tianyu said, he stood up from where he was hiding, with a long and sharp sword in his hand.

Qinghu stretched out his hand in an attempt to stop him, but after holding the position for a long while, he finally drew back his hand and nodded lightly.

“I see.” As he said, he stared at Long Tianyu with complicated emotions in his eyes. He was well aware that this man came all the way here with them with the determination to die with Lin Mengya.

Everyone could die, except for Qinghu, as only Qinghu knew Long Tianyu’s wish, which was to stick together with Lin Mengya in life and death.

By now, Qinghu believed that he could risk his life for Lin Mengya. However, Long Tianyu simply couldn’t live without her.

He had no way or right to fight for anything with Long Tianyu.

“Thank you.” After saying these two words lightly, Long Tianyu walked steadily towards the entrance of the cave with his sword.

At the sight of the handsome man dressed in black, those copper slaves, who had been standing upright outside the cave, pounced on Long Tianyu like ferocious dogs.

A crisp sound of metal weapons colliding started the carnival of killing.

Long Tianyu killed one of them at every step. Since they were creatures numb to pain with no self-consciousness, he decided to cut off their heads and put an end to all their pain.

The battlefield was like hell. Wherever Long Tianyu went, he encountered dangerous attacks and fought back with excellent swordsmanship.

He was somehow perturbed.

At this moment, he just wanted to rush into the cave and hold the disobedient woman in his arms.

He waved his sword to cut off the last head with a copper mask.

Killing made him increasingly restless with anxiety and left wounds all over his body.

It was not because Long Tianyu was not as proficient as the copper slaves in martial arts, but because ever since he realized that he had been deceived by Lin Mengya, he had hurried here day and night, for fear that he could never meet his beloved woman.

He closed his eyes and managed to suppress the urge to spit up blood. He didn’t want Lin Mengya to worry about him, nor did he want her to see him in such a mess.

But as soon as he stepped into the cave, a handsome young man who looked shocked came into his sight.

“Are you Xiaoyu?” He asked.

At the sight of Long Tianyu, Xiaoyu, dressed in a black robe, nodded lightly to admit his identity.

At the thought of his sister’s plan, Xiaoyu could only suppress his guilty conscience, looked down and put on an embarrassed look.

“You’re late. My sister... she already...” He spoke slowly and even word by word, and his words wrenched at Long Tianyu’s heart.

In that instant, Long Tianyu felt his vision went dark.

Managing to balance his body with his thin sword, Long Tianyu staggered into the cave behind Xiaoyu.

He quickened his slow pace to pass through the tunnel and reached the open space on the hillside.

“Who is it? Kill him!” Canying, who was walking towards the snake head-shaped pool, said with a murderous look in his eyes at the sight of the black figure.

However, Long Tianyu, who was almost crazy at this moment, would not give them the chance to do so. He wielded his long sword and cut the throats of those useless subordinates of Canying.

“Useless trash!” Canying cursed and intended to activate his internal strength to kill Long Tianyu.

However, in the next moment, he realized that he could not move.

“How... how is this possible!” He said in astonishment and rage, opening his eyes wide.

Before he could react, the blood-stained sword pierced through his chest.

With a “clang”, Long Tianyu killed Canying, a fierce and ambitious man, with his sword.

But Canying had no idea who trapped him.

Long Tianyu didn’t notice anything unusual.

All he could see was the woman sleeping soundly in the water.

The water in the pool was so clear that he could even see her features clearly.

Despite her delicate features, she could never open her lips as red as a cherry blossom to speak to him.

“I’m here. Why didn’t you wait for me?” He said to her gently as before.

At this moment, he could no longer suppress the urge to spit up blood, and his blood fell from his pale mouth into the pool where she was sleeping, dying the water light pink.

“You will feel lonely here, right? It doesn’t matter. I will stay here with you.” As Long Tianyu said, he reached out his trembling hands into the water and carried her up from the bottom of the pool.

How he wished for a miracle that she would suddenly open her eyes and tell him with a smile that he had been tricked.

However, she had neither breathing nor heartbeat, and she even gradually became cold after he got her out of the water.

Long Tianyu held on tightly to Lin Mengya, who did not move at all, although the moisture on her body had completely wet his clothes and the slightly poisonous water, in which the Seven Poisons Sacred Grass had soaked over the years, was eroding his wounds so that he felt a piercing pain.

Only the pain reminded him that he was still alive.

However, at the moment, his life became the biggest obstacle between him and her.

He would not allow anyone or anything to prevent him from staying with her.
