“Su Qing, you….”

Ji Shuisheng had just called out Su Qing’s name when Su Qing had already blocked his following words. She said firmly,

“I must go.”

Ji Shuisheng still wanted to persuade her, but Su Qing had already turned around and left the door. Her personality was firm, and she would not change her mind because of anyone.

“Uncle Cheng, move the detonator to a safe place.”

Ji Shuisheng was afraid that those people would return to snatch the detonators after he and Su Qing left, so he asked Cheng Yu to move the detonators to a safe place.

“Uncle Qu, help Uncle Cheng move the detonator. Don’t let others know where the detonator is hidden.”

Ji Shuisheng suspected that there were spies of the Tartan soldiers in the city, so the place where the detonators were hidden had to be kept a secret.

“Alright.”

Qu Da replied and cupped his fists at Ji Shuisheng.

“Please rest assured, young Master. You must be careful on this trip.”

“Yes.”

Ji Shuisheng acknowledged Su Qing’s words and hurriedly chased after him when he saw that Su Qing had already walked out of the door. They walked side by side towards the east gate.

In order not to be discovered, the two of them did not go through the city gate. They took the Five-clawed Hook and left Mo City without anyone noticing.

The night was the best cover, and the two chased in Tartan’s direction.

Cold Moon hid in the dark clouds, and the world was pitch black. Su Qing’s spiritual power had reached level 43, so her vision was extraordinary. Without moonlight, she could still move.

Ji Shuisheng grew up in the mountains, so the night did not affect him much.

“Xiao Qi, look at where the incense table is.”

A radius of ten miles was a big concept. Su Qing didn’t want to waste her time, so she asked Xiao Qi to help search.

They could find the mastermind behind the scenes if they found the incense table. Xiao Qi stuck out her chubby little butt and lay in front of the screen, staring at the screen with her big round eyes.

In the darkness were a few red spots of light the size of rice grains. They were five miles ahead.

“Master, there is an incense table five miles ahead.”

After Xiao Qi confirmed it, she reported to Su Qing. The little fellow seemed to have jumped out of the system to help A/Iaster catch those human demons.

“This way.”

After Su Qing received Xiao Qi’s report, she brought Ji Shuisheng and rushed forward. Fortunately, this was plain with no ditches or mountain roads, so running was not dangerous. It was the darkest time before dawn.

When Ji Shuisheng and Su Qing found the incense table, the sky turned slightly white. The golden sun broke through the darkness and revealed its first ray of sunlight.

They found the location of the incense table. The incense table was a wooden board placed on two stones. There was an altar on the wooden board. When they arrived, the incense had already been extinguished, leaving only a piece of incense ash.

“He has already run away.”

Ji Shuisheng frowned as he looked at the empty incense table. This proved his guess that there was indeed someone who had become a human demon to do evil.

“Where is that?”

Su Qing pointed ahead and asked Ji Shuisheng. Ji Shuisheng followed her finger and saw a dried-up river. There was a wooden bridge over the river. Standing on the high ground, he saw an extensive grassland on the other side of the bridge. Because it was late autumn, the grass had already withered. In the distance, scattered Mongolia was faintly visible in the morning fog. They were about a mile away from them.

“That should be Tartan.”

Ji Shuisheng recalled the markings on the map left behind by his father. About seven miles from Mo City was a small border city of the Tartan Kingdom. Before the war, the people of the Great Xia Kingdom and the Tartan Kingdom had been there to exchange goods, forming a market.

After the war, this market no longer existed.

“Let’s go take a look.”

Su Qing thought of Yeluchun she had met in Luo City. She had promised to treat Yeluchun’s mother and even took the Luan saber. One could not go back on one’s word.

Moreover, they wanted to know what was going on with the sudden invasion of Tartar.

“We have killed hundreds of Tartan soldiers. If the Han people go over now, they will kill them without any explanation.”

Ji Shuisheng reminded Su Qing that the Han people looked different from the Tartans and could be recognized immediately.

Although he and Su Qing were highly skilled in martial arts, they did not dare to say they would be able to return alive without detonators.

“Let’s return to Mo City first.”

Su Qing was not a risk-taking person. She was calmer than Ji Shuisheng. If Ji Shuisheng could think of danger, how could she not?

She couldn’t catch up to the mastermind who controlled the human demon now. She would return to Mo City first and use the night as a cover to explore the Tartan Kingdom.

The two of them did not touch the incense table, not letting the person behind the scenes know he had been discovered. The next time he used the human demon, they would be able to catch him in one fell swoop.

When they rushed back to the city, they saw the gates still tightly shut. On the city walls stood fully armed soldiers of the Great Xia Kingdom.

Ji Shuisheng and Su Qing did not alarm them. They found a deserted place and hooked themselves onto the wall with their five-clawed hooks, returning to the city without anyone noticing.

Other than Qu Da and the others who knew that Ji Shuisheng and Su Qing had gone after the men in black, no one else knew that they had left.

After Ji Shuisheng returned to the city, he went to look for Uncle Cheng to understand the situation at the border in detail. He planned to use a trick to lure the snake out of its hole and dig out the hidden spies in this city.

Su Qing rushed to the blacksmith shop after breakfast to level up immediately. Zhong Yong, Xiaoying, and the girls followed closely behind Su Qing.

“Sister, let’s start a fire.”

Xiaoying and Jiang Yuyan volunteered. Su Qing nodded and asked Zhong Yong to carry a basket of coal back from the car. She made preparations to smelt the machetes and forge the steel knives.

The scimitars that she had seized yesterday were all on the ground. Su Qing did not bother to remove the handles of the scimitars. The curved handles were all made of wood. When she threw them into the fire, they would naturally be burned away. It could also make the fire burn a little brighter.

Su Qing carried two wooden barrels to the small courtyard where the injured stayed to get water. The blacksmith shop had all the tools, but forging required a lot of water. However, there was not a single drop of water in the cooling sink.

Zhong Yong went to the carriage to retrieve the coal. He was strong enough to carry a basket full of coal with one hand without any difficulty. Jiang Yuyan looked at such a strong man with pink stars in her eyes.

“Big Brother Zhong, let me do it!”

Jiang Yuyan reached out to receive the basket from Zhong Yong. Zhong Yong looked at her slender arms in disdain.

“You can’t.”

Jiang Yuyan retracted her hand awkwardly. The basket of coal weighed dozens of kilograms. She couldn’t carry it. She couldn’t.

Xiaoying squatted in front of the blacksmith furnace and blew at the branches that burned slowly. She and Jiang Yuyan picked up these branches. She wondered if they could burn the coal.

Su Qing returned with the water and smiled when she saw Xiaoying’s cute appearance. She pulled Xiaoying up and pointed at the windmill beside her.

“Pull this.”

The windmill was very heavy. Xiaoying used all her strength to hold it in until her face turned red. Zhong Yong’s eyes were disgusted when he saw it, but he did not dare to say anything. Who asked Xiaoying to be his Master’s favorite friend and big brother’s sister? She had a strong background.

Although Zhong Yong was simple-minded, he was not stupid. He knew who he could not afford to offend.

Zhong Yong couldn’t help but squat beside Ji Xiaoying. He didn’t dare to speak loudly for fear of scaring Xiaoying. His careful appearance was especially laughable.

“Sister Xiaoying, can I pull it?”
