Chapter 3913 4.1513 Hiding

He didn't know what to say about what had happened.

Logically, the Crown Princess and the Mu family weren't particularly close, but the current state of the Mu family was disheartening to anyone who saw it.

Moreover, from his observations along the way, the Crown Princess was clearly a tough-mouthed but soft-hearted person. Seeing the Mu family in such a state wouldn't make her happy, would it?

Qiao Mu glanced at Fang Su, nodded, gave a casual instruction, and then pulled Crown Prince Mo towards the mountain gate.

Upon entering the Mu family's mountain gate, Qiao Mu frowned as she stepped inside, muttering, "Should we call Big Brother back?"

"I've already sent a message to Big Brother." Such a significant event couldn't be concealed from Mu Xingchen.

If he later found out he hadn't been informed of such a big matter, wouldn't it just make him feel bad for no reason?

Qiao Mu nodded, not thinking much of it.

As she walked, she saw bloodstains everywhere among the flowers and trees.

The bodies had probably already been cleared by the guards, but the bloodstains remained.

Qiao Mu and Mo Lian walked all the way to the main hall, stood there, and pondered for a moment before Qiao Mu shook her head. "Something's wrong."

"What's wrong?" Mo Lian asked, looking down at her.

"The bloodstains are wrong!"

Mo Lian blinked, then nodded understandingly. "Are you saying that for over a thousand people in the Mu family, the bloodstains outside account for less than a hundred?"

Qiao Mu nodded, looking up at her husband with shining eyes.

Her husband always understood Grand Mistress Qiao Qiao's meaning the quickest. He was incredibly clever.

"So where are the Mu family members hiding now?"

"Ask old man Chaoyang. He should know."

"Can we still enter the Chaoyang Tower?"

Qiao Mu immediately frowned. "Oh, right, we still can't enter the Chaoyang Tower."

However, after realizing that most of the Mu family members were actually fine, she wasn't so anxious anymore.

As the saying goes, "The good die young, but villains live a thousand years!"

The Mu family was probably like that, Qiao Mu snorted.

"Never mind, let's wait until Big Brother arrives," Qiao Mu tugged Mo Lian's hand. "Big Brother should know about the underground tunnels and secret places here."

She was too lazy to use talismans to find those people. Let them hide inside for a few more days.

Judging by their state, they were probably scared senseless by Heavenly Fortune's people.

But then again, how could a thousand-year-old family of talisman practitioners not have some means to protect the lives of their clan members?

They had truly worried for nothing.

Fang Su was surprised to see them come out so soon after entering. He couldn't help but ask, "Crown Prince, Crown Princess, are you returning to the palace now?"

Qiao Mu nodded. "It's been a while since I've seen Father Emperor. I'm going to visit the old man."

Fang Su's mouth twitched.

The little Crown Princess was suddenly so sensible. It felt a bit strange.

Mo Lian couldn't help but chuckle. "I'll send a message to Big Brother, telling him not to worry. The situation probably isn't as serious as we thought."

Qiao Mu nodded noncommittally, glanced at Fang Su, and casually tossed him a pill. "I see you're about to advance. This is a Level Ten Spirit Breaking Pill."

What did it feel like to suddenly have a pie fall from the sky and hit you?

This was that feeling right now.

Fang Su stupidly turned his head, stunned for a long moment, before loudly shouting after the retreating figures of the young couple, "Thank you, Crown Princess! Thank you, Crown Prince!"

The group of whispering guards beside him all looked at their commander with envy: Commander Fang is truly lucky!
