<h4>Chapter 1900 The Shangguan n’s Residence</h4>


    "I mean…" Shangguan Hou nced at Shangguan Tong ambiguously. All he could see was a death stareing from Shangguan Tong warning him to keep his mouth shut.


    Shangguan Hou scoffed. "Women are not only stupid, but they are also funny."


    For the sake of a man, she did not care if it meant dying. Was she not stupid?


    Shangguan Hou did not want to waste time talking. He raised his hand and gestured to the super assassin beside him.


    He had to rendezvous with King, so he had no time to continue to give more answers to Romeo and Juliet over here.

    Before long, it was 8:00 pm. At Serene Vige, Huo Yao, Min Yu, and the others walked out of the vige chief''s ce and headed into the Forbidden Forest.


    The vige chief sent them to the entrance of the Forbidden Forest and halted. Although his torchlight was pointed at the forest, its light was unable to prate into the forest at close scrutiny.


    The light seemedpletely cut off by something.


    "I can only send you this far. As for you… take care," said the vige chief slowly.


    Huo Yao nodded. "Got it. Thanks."


    The vige chief smiled as he shook his head. He raised his hand and urged them. "Go on then. You don''t want to bete."


    "Uh huh," acknowledged Huo Yao before she entered the Forbidden Forest containing ancient-style mechanisms and formations.


    The moment she took a step forward, something could be heard, but on close scrutiny, there was nothing.


    Huo Yao straightened the loose hair by the side of her face. She had already taken two steps, but she suddenly stopped. She looked at the vige chief and asked, "Did you see them enter the forest with your own eyes?"


    The vige chief paused briefly. He did not expect Huo Yao to ask about this, but he nodded in all honesty.


    Huo Yao''s eyes turned dark. She stopped probing and continued making her way inside the forest.


    Before long, everyone disappeared through the Forbidden Forest entrance and the surroundings reverted to silence.


    After entering the forest, all signals got cut offpletely.


    Zhuo Yun sighed softly. He ced his phone in his pocket. Fortunately, he had already sent Yang Yi a text message. At least he was able to send thest message instead of losing touchpletely.


    The Forbidden Forest was far harder to enter than expected. Moreover, it was already nighttime. If they were careless, mechanisms would get activated. It was equally hard to enter as the underground pce.


    Thankfully, Huo Yao would remind them every now and then and they knew how to handle themselves in the wilderness. This way things were still manageable on their way to the Shangguan n.


    They simply took a longer time.


    All in all, they spent nearly three hours walking.


    Looking at the grand and ssically styled residence before them, Zhuo Yun and Myron''s eyes were overwhelmed by wonder.


    Over 100 steps that kept going up could be seen. Statues of ferocious beasts nked the door staring down at its visitors. Their eyes looked intense and looked scary as they stared down at them.


    The main entrance was tightly shut and twonterns hung from overhead. Even though no candles could be seen, it left a bright red glow in its wake.


    One thing was strange about the ce. Despite itsrge size, the sign on the door was empty and no name could be seen on it.


    It gave off a mysterious aura… To a degree, it seemed as though no one was living here.


    They were unable to detect the presence of other people.


    "Is this where the Shangguan n lives?" Min Yu narrowed his eyes looking serious.


    "Uh huh." As Huo Yao spoke, she stepped on the first step.


    Her back was straight as she went up step by step unhurriedly.


    Min Yu looked at Huo Yao from behind. He suddenly remembered what he saw when hebined both pieces of jade secretly. His hands moved slightly before he followed behind her and held her wrist tightly.
