<h4>Chapter 420: Smart Snow Fox, First Meeting with a Divine General (3)</h4> <h4><strong>Trantor: </strong>Henyee Trantions <strong> Editor: </strong>Henyee Trantions</h4>


    Jiang Hai’s qinggong was good, and Yu Wan’s steps were not heavy. The two of them sessfully slipped out of the prison. The little snow fox followed eagerly.


    Suddenly, Jiang Hai stopped in his tracks. “Wait.”


    Yu Wan also paused. The little snow fox did not look where it was going and bumped into Yu Wan’s heel. It was dizzy and its eyes were seeing stars.


    “What’s wrong?” Yu Wan asked.


    Jiang Hai’s ears twitched. “There’s someone.”


    Yu Wan listened attentively. Indeed, there were patrols at both ends of the alley. This was bad.


    Yu Wan believed that they could sessfully kill their way out with Jiang Hai’s martial arts, but what would happen after they did?


    Jiang Hai and Yu Wan thought of the same thing. The two of them exchanged nces. Then, an idea shed across their minds at the same time and they looked at the high wall at the side.


    Even if Jiang Hai had been to the West City before, he could not figure out where he was in the dark. The two of them thought that it was the residence of a rich family, but they did not expect it to be the most heavily guarded City Lord Manor in the Western City.


    “It’s toote. Why don’t we hide first?” Yu Wan said.


    Jiang Hai nodded. That was the only way.


    Jiang Hai used his qinggong to jump onto the wall and reached out to Yu Wan. Yu Wan picked up the little snow fox and grabbed his hand to jump up.


    After all, Yu Wan had a soul from another world living in her bones. Holding a hand at the critical moment was nothing to her. She jumped onto the wall and quickly jumped down, leaving Jiang Hai, whose palm was burning, stunned on the spot.


    “What are you doing? Come down!” Yu Wan urged.


    Jiang Hai’s face turned red. It was also thanks to the darkness of the night that it was not obvious. He quickly flew down, but in that moment of daze just now, the patrolling guards arrived. The guard vaguely saw the corner of his shirt fly into the City Lord Manor.


    “Did you see anything?” The sharp-eyed guard frowned. The others shook their heads.


    To be cautious, the guard still led his brothers to the wall where they had caught themotion. He squatted down and was about to discover the footprints on the ground when hispanion suddenly shouted, “Who is it!”


    It was a green-clothed monk who escaped from prison.


    Everyone’s attention was attracted by the monk. They couldn’t care less about this little thief who did not exist and quickly pounced on the monk.


    Yu Wan and Jiang Hai naturally did not know about this. The moment the two of them jumped into the manor, they met the maidservant in the manor. Fortunately, they were smart and did not let the maidservant see them.


    The two of them could only find another ce to hide. After the maidservant left and the patrolling guards were cleared, they climbed over the wall. However, as there were more and more maidservants, it did not seem to be so easy for them to return the way they came. The two of them hid behind the rockery.


    Soon, the guards arrived.


    Yu Wan whispered, “What manor is this? Why are there so many guards?” Even for rich families like the Bai Manor and the Young Master Manor, there were not so many guards on patrol.


    Jiang Hai had a bad feeling because this group of guards did not look like ordinary guards, but trained soldiers. “Oh no, we’ve entered the City Lord Manor!”


    Jiang Hai finally realized what kind of tiger’s den they had entered. This was not much more optimistic than the dungeon. The dungeon only had a prison door, and the prison guards were nothing to be afraid of, but the guards in the City Lord Manor were all top-notch experts.


    Jiang Hai whispered, “The West City is the Helian family’s fief. The City Lord is a servant of the Helian family. The guards they have are all experts carefully nurtured by the Helian family. Madam, if we can’t avoid itter, I’ll lure them away. You take the Princely Heir and leave first.”


    Yu Wan shook her head. “No, I’ll go lure them away. You take Yan Jiuchao away.”


    “No.” Yu Wan said, “I don’t know qinggong. If anyone chases after us, Yan Jiuchao and I won’t be able to escape. You’re different. You can escape very far.”


    “But Madam…”


    Yu Wan smiled. “You have to believe me. I still have the ability to protect myself.”


    Jiang Hai naturally understood that this arrangement was the most reliable. He was not a wishy-washy person. Although he was worried about Yu Wan, he finally epted her n.


    Yu Wan gestured to Jiang Hai. “Let’s split up and try our best not to be discovered.”


    Jiang Hai nodded.


    “Your qinggong is good. You go first,” Yu Wan said.


    Jiang Hai tapped Yan Jiuchao’s sleeping acupoint, untied his belt, and tied him to his back. He turned around and looked at Yu Wan. “Madam, be careful. I’lle and pick you up after I settle the Princely Heir down.”


    Yu Wan nodded. “Okay.”


    Jiang Hai carried Yan Jiuchao and disappeared into the endless night. Yu Wan decided to find an empty room to hide in first. She avoided the gaze of the maidservants and infiltrated a dark small courtyard. This courtyard was quiet enough for her to hide for two to four hours. Unexpectedly, just as Yu Wan walked to the porch, the little snow fox in her arms squeaked.


    “Shh—” Yu Wan covered its little mouth and pricked up her ears warily.


    “Grand General, this way please!” A strong man’s voice came from outside the courtyard.


    Yu Wan’s eyes paused. Could she be so unlucky? The courtyard she had just found was already upied?


    “I know that the General doesn’t like to be disturbed. This courtyard is the quietest in the manor. I’ve already asked the servants to carefully clean it during the day.”


    Jiang Hai said that the West City was the Helian family’s fief. In that case, the “general” this man mentioned should also be a member of the Helian family. Helian Qi was already dead. Who could this “Grand General” be?


    Just as Yu Wan was thinking, a group of people came to the courtyard. It was impossible to leave the courtyard. Yu Wan casually pushed open a room and shed in.


    The little snow fox was stunned. The door opened, and a hand reached out and scooped the little snow fox in.


    Yu Wan pressed the little snow fox into her arms and aimed her eyes at the gap in the window. She saw two maidservants walking in front withnterns. More than ten guards walked in two rows. A burly young man walked into the courtyard. He was about thirty years old and his clothes and bearing were extraordinary.


    He gestured respectfully, as if inviting someone into the courtyard. However, the first thing Yu Wan saw was a wheelchair. The silver-white body of the chair emitted a faint cold light under the moonlight.


    Then, Yu Wan looked at the person in the wheelchair.


    This was a man with a very powerful aura, but his aura was not released. It was more like it was hidden in his wide robe. His facial features were firm and angr, and his thick eyebrows were nted to his temples. He did not look dejected at all because he was not handicapped. Even though he was sitting in a wheelchair, he seemed to be able to look down on the world.
