Chapter 3704: 4.1304 Aftermath

"We've only been married for two days, let your husband spend a couple more days with Qiao Qiao!"

"You." The little Crown Princess's face inexplicably flushed scarlet, and she smacked him hard. "Get lost."

"I'm already lost," Mo Lian said with a twinkle in his eye and a smile. "Didn't I get lost and end up here?"

Qiao Mu couldn't help but let out a little laugh, giving him an annoyed glare.

The carriage stopped with a gentle sway. Mo Lian lifted the curtain, pulled Qiao Mu out, and strode towards the estate in front of them. This suburban estate appeared unguarded, but in reality, hidden guards were everywhere. They entered smoothly, finding no one in their path.

As soon as they stepped into the central courtyard, they heard a voice filled with laughter, sounding displeased. "Did it really take you two this long to dawdle all the way here?"

"Look how long I've been waiting for you."

Qiao Mu looked over and saw a man with an elegant, upright posture, dressed in simple robes, sitting under a camphor tree in the central courtyard. He held a cup in one hand, smiling as he looked at them, his peach blossom eyes faintly shimmering.

Crown Prince Mo immediately blocked his wife's view. Lord Qiao Qiao poked her head out from behind him, continuing to peek at Duan Yue in the central courtyard.

"What's so interesting?"

"Naturally, it's because I'm handsome," Duan Yue said, instantly appearing before them, then shifting his steps to stand by Qiao Mu. "Qiao Qiao, long time no see, shouldn't I get a hug first?"

"Hug a ghost, you!" Mo Lian angrily pulled the fellow away, directly dragging him towards the dungeon. "Were they caught?"

"Hmph," Duan Yue said, arrogantly flicking Mo Lian's hand away. "Why are you pulling me? My hand is only for Qiao Qiao."

"Pah!" Mo Lian glared at him, annoyed and amused, poking him with a finger. "Let's go."

Lord Qiao Qiao tilted her little head, staring at the two men bickering in front of her, then suddenly roared, "What are you doing?"

The two reflexively separated, turning their heads in unison to look at the expressionless little poker face.

"Qiao Qiao, I laid out a trap and caught that Immortal Venerable-level pinnacle guy."

"It took quite a few Divine Stone Cannons!" Duan Yue's figure flickered, and he appeared before Qiao Mu, saying with a cheerful smile, "I'll take you to see."

Mo Lian quickly followed, reaching out to pull Lord Qiao Qiao to his side. "The Divine Stone Cannons were all provided by me!"

Qiao Mu stepped down into the dungeon. "Was Rong Li previously held here by you?"

Both men nodded simultaneously.

"Then where is he now?"

Duan Yue pointed here and there, then up to the sky and down to the ground. "He's everywhere."

Lord Qiao Qiao rolled her eyes in exasperation. Meaning he was burned to ashes and mixed with the air.

"Since Rong Li is dead, why are you holding the Immortal Venerable-level pinnacle person now?"

"Rong Li thought if he lied, we'd fall for it?" Duan Yue chuckled. "Why would Immortal Venerable Jinshang and those two Spirit Venerable-level individuals risk their lives for a Rong Li without enough benefits?"

"So?" Qiao Mu's eyes narrowed.

"They also know you possess a Spiritual Domain," the two said in perfect sync, then glared at each other.

"As long as these three are dealt with, this matter will be concluded," Duan Yue said with a smile.

As they spoke, the group arrived before the wooden bar cages separately holding Immortal Venerable Jinshang and the two Spirit Venerable-level individuals.
