After the slave killer left, Madam Ji also went to take a bath.
On the roof, Chu Feifeng took a long breath.
In order to hide her aura just now, she held her breath until she almost fainted.
She stuck her eyes out of the eaves and looked cautiously at the Slave Killer who had disappeared into the night. She only used her qinggong when she was completely invisible.
She hurriedly returned to her room, closed the door, inserted the bolt, and began to digest the clues she had eavesdropped on.
The medicine woman who lived in the Hundred Flower Palace was definitely her seventh sister-in-law. She had given birth, but the Hall Master of the Heavenly Jade Hall wanted to steal her child.
She didn’t know why she wanted to steal the child for the time being.
From Madam Ji’s tone, the Hall Master of the Heavenly Jade Hall seemed to have an old relationship with the Palace Lord of the Hundred Flowers Palace.
Madam Ji was very jealous.
On the surface, she had sent that expert to protect the Heavenly Jade Hall’s Hall Master. She probably wanted to take the opportunity to kill Palace Lord Yun Shuang.
Palace Lord Yun Shuang was a good person. She treated Little Seven and her
seventh sister-in-law as her biological son and daughter-in-law.
She could not let Madam Ji’s plan succeed, nor could she let Xiaobao be snatched away by the Hall Master of the Heavenly Jade Hall.
She had to inform the Hundred Flowers Palace as soon as possible and let Palace Lord Yun Shuang, Little Seven, and the others take precautions.
However, it was easy to arouse suspicion if she suddenly went out at this time.
Forget it, she couldn’t care less.
As long as Palace Lord Yun Shuang and Xiaobao were safe, it didn’t matter if she was exposed!
Chu Feifeng took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down as she thought about the best strategy.
She came to the Many Treasures Pavilion and picked up a glass vase that Madam Ji had given her.
Fifteen minutes later, Chu Feifeng put on her cloak and hat and left the courtyard, avoiding the maidservants.
Liu Zhi had just gone to the kitchen to get food as usual and was carrying a food box.
She saw a figure sneak out of Madam’s courtyard from afar.
She felt that something was wrong. She hurriedly took two steps forward and hid behind the rockery.
Soon, that person walked past the rockery.
Liu Zhi saw the other party’s appearance clearly. It was Yun Niang!
Chu Feifeng looked around.
Liu Zhi hurriedly retracted her head to prevent the other party from discovering her.
It was not until the other party had walked away that she came out from behind the rockery and quietly followed. She watched as Yun Niang left the Heavenly Jade Hall from the back door.
“She got through the back door. She even looks like she’s afraid of being discovered… There’s something wrong with this Yun Niang!”
Liu Zhi did not dare to delay and immediately reported this to Madam Ji.
Madam Ji had just finished bathing and a maidservant was combing her long hair.
“You mean, Yun Niang?”
“Yes, Madam. I saw her sneaking around with my own eyes! Madam, could it be her?”
It had not been a day or two since Liu Zhi had a problem with Yun Niang.
Originally, she was the most doted on maidservant. A promotion to the position of Steward was just around the corner.
As soon as Madam Yun arrived, she immediately snatched Madam’s love.
Even for a big matter like visiting Madam in the City Lord Manor, she brought Yun Niang along and asked her to stay behind to look after the courtyard.
Madam Ji called over the secret guard dressed as a servant and gave him a look.
The secret guard understood and turned to chase after her.
Chu Feifeng did not take the Heavenly Jade Hall’s carriage, and there was no carriage dealership nearby. She could only walk.
After walking for a while, she became aware that someone was following her. She turned into an inn and went to the toilet to take off her cloak. She took off the clothes outside and threw them away. There was also a set of clothes inside.
Then, she put on her veil.
At this moment, she was like a different person from before.
She went out the back door.
However, the secret guard beside Madam Ji was not to be someone not to be trifled with.
Soon, he locked onto her again.
Chu Feifeng frowned secretly.
Being watched, she naturally could not go to the Heavenly Slaughter Sect.
However, the longer she delayed, the more danger Palace Lord Yun Shuang and Xiaobao would be in.
She had to shake this person off as soon as possible.
Chu Feifeng could not be bothered to hide her martial arts. She used her qinggong and jumped onto the roof.
The secret guard was shocked.
He did not expect a seemingly weak steward to have such qinggong.
It seemed that Madam was right.
The secret guard followed.
Chu Feifeng gritted her teeth. Damn it, she still didn’t manage to shake him off!
If Third Sister-in-law was here, she would definitely not be in such a sorry state.
She could only go all out!
Chu Feifeng held the sleeve arrow tightly and turned around to shoot at the secret guard!
The secret guard’s expression changed.
Had she discovered him?
The secret guard dodged the sleeve arrow!
When he landed steadily on the roof, Chu Feifeng was already gone.
He frowned. “Lost her?”
Chu Feifeng used her movement technique to the limit and rushed towards the Fire Slaughter Sect.
Swish!
A sharp sound tore through the air behind her.
Chu Feifeng’s eyes trembled. She hurriedly reached out and grabbed the chimney in front of her. She used the inertia to circle around and avoid the cold arrow that was shooting at her!
She took a closer look and saw that it was her sleeve arrow!
Not good!
That person caught up again!
At this point, there was no need to hide.
The secret guard appeared and blocked Chu Feifeng’s path.
“Yunniang, how dare you betray Madam.”
Chu Feifeng said without changing her expression, “I didn’t betray Madam.”
The secret guard said coldly, “Is that so? Then why did you hide your martial arts? Did you still secretly leave the residence tonight? You even used your sleeve arrow to assassinate me after I discovered you.”
Chu Feifeng said, “I don’t have to explain it to you.”
The secret guard said, “It’s fine if you don’t explain it to me. Go back and explain it to Madam!”
Chu Feifeng said, “I haven’t finished buying my things. I can’t go back now.”
The secret guard mocked, “I think you don’t dare to go back!”
Chu Feifeng looked warily at his hand on the hilt of his sword. “What do you want?”
The secret guard pulled out his sword. “I’ll capture you and hand you over to Madam!”
Chu Feifeng took a step back.
The secret guard stabbed at her!
Chu Feifeng drew the soft sword at her waist and quickly welcomed his attack. A trace of surprise flashed across the secret guard’s eyes. “You can actually take
a move from me. You really hid it well!”
It had to be known that he was a carefully selected secret guard of the Thousand Possibilities Pavilion. Ordinary disciples of the Heavenly Jade Hall might not be able to withstand a move or two from him.
Chu Feifeng gritted her teeth.
Her forearm went numb and she almost lost her grip on the soft sword.
This person’s martial arts were too powerful. He could only last ten moves at most.
After ten moves, she would not even have the strength to escape.
She was not afraid of being captured or Madam Ji torturing her.
But she had to deliver the news.
She had failed to protect the Wei family in the past.
Now, she wanted to protect Xiaobao.
The secret guard’s second move attacked her mercilessly.
This time, not only did Chu Feifeng’s arm go numb, but her entire arm also felt a needle-like pain.
It was a ruptured meridian…
Three moves, four moves… eleven moves…
Chu Feifeng fell heavily to the ground and vomited blood.
The secret guard rushed down from the roof and walked towards her step by step. “Aren’t you going to surrender?”
Chu Feifeng held onto the wall and forced herself to stand up. She glared at him in pain and determination. “No!”
The secret guard kicked her over.
Just as he was about to cripple her hand, a shocking roar came from behind.
“Grandpa! Who’s causing trouble in my territory?!”
