Do Not Offend the Reborn Wicked Wife

Chapter 793: Ingenious Stratagem!

Enchanting Soul, Soul Enchanting Soup... what exactly is this thing?

Li Qingmu fell into deep thought.

"It’s a special secret medicine. I can’t say much about it, but..." Zhe Feng paused, then suddenly glanced at Li Qingmu and then at the cave, as if hesitating about something.

"If you have something to say, say it directly!"

Li Qingmu took a deep breath, preparing himself.

Zhe Feng stepped a little further out, lowering his voice, "Actually, you might not know, but all the Beiliang Secret Medicines come from Bailing Valley."

Bailing Valley?

Li Qingmu’s pupils suddenly constricted. Bailing Valley, isn’t that the sect of Duanmu Nan?

It’s no wonder Zhe Feng looked towards the cave; is he worried that Long Yue might hear? Then there’s certainly some information that’s unfavorable to Duanmu Nan in this.

Various thoughts flashed through Li Qingmu’s mind, and Zhe Feng, seeing his expression change unpredictably, said, "I don’t know the specific situation in Bailing Valley, because we have limited interactions with them. But I know Bailing Valley isn’t entirely clean; someone there might be colluding with You Su."

Li Qingmu remained silent. He hadn’t had any dealings with Bailing Valley, so he couldn’t comment. But looking at Duanmu Nan, he didn’t seem like a bad person?

"A Mu?"

At that moment, Long Yue’s call came from inside. Li Qingmu turned around to see that something of Long Yue’s had fallen, and she asked him to help pick it up.

"Who’s outside?"

Long Yue asked out of curiosity.

Li Qingmu: "It’s Zhe Feng and Broken Jade."

"Oh, those two? How did they find us?"

Long Yue looked curious and glanced in You’er’s direction. They didn’t seem to have You’er’s skills, did they?

"They said they came by using a compass."

"Oh, pretty impressive." Long Yue nodded slightly. The compass is quite mysterious; she didn’t understand it. But if someone could find her using it, then they must be... capable, right?

Then, she noticed Li Qingmu seemed deeply troubled and asked, "What’s wrong? Did Zhe Feng say something to you?"

Li Qingmu considered whether to discuss it with his dear wife.

Long Yue, seeing him silent, grew anxious: "Hey, say something! Don’t keep quiet, it makes me really anxious!"

"Yue’er, it’s nothing serious, just..."

Li Qingmu recounted what Zhe Feng and Broken Jade had just told him to Long Yue, and she was silent for a while after listening.

After a moment, Long Yue looked up and said, "A Mu, trust me, I don’t think Master is a bad person! He has saved our lives several times, he can’t be bad!"

"Yue’er, I trust your master too!"

Li Qingmu, worried about Long Yue’s emotional state, which was not good for her recovery, quickly held her small hand and said earnestly.

Long Yue grasped his hand tightly: "Really!"

"Yes!" After a pause, he said, "Now the question is, how are we going to leave here?"

He looked at Long Yue, who had just given birth and should be recuperating, but staying here was clearly not an option.

But leaving? Facing the elements outside? That’s not a good option either.

"Li Qingmu!"

At this moment, the voices of Zhe Feng and Broken Jade sounded simultaneously from outside. They rushed in and said, "Not good, someone’s coming!"

Li Qingmu’s expression shifted; it was undoubtedly the villagers; they had found them.

"They’ll probably be here in a quarter of an hour; we need to leave quickly. Your wife..."

Broken Jade glanced at Long Yue, who was still lying in bed with a thin quilt covering her, looking pale due to her weak condition after childbirth.

Let her leave with them? That would leave her with many health issues, but staying and fighting was impossible with so many to contend with.

"A Mu, we... we should go!"

Long Yue suddenly said. No matter what, going out now might expose her to the elements, but at least it wouldn’t put Li Qingmu and the others in danger. If they stayed, could they handle all those villagers?

"No, I can’t let you go out, it’s not good for you!"

"But if we stay, we’ll be surrounded!"

Long Yue was extremely anxious. Her own safety didn’t matter, but what about her child, her husband? They could face hardship and danger at any time because of her. She couldn’t be so selfish!

"I say, can you hurry up and make a decision? If we don’t leave now, soon it will be too late!"

"You’er, quick, help me up!"

"Yue’er! Don’t be reckless!"

Long Yue insisted on leaving, but Li Qingmu shouted sternly, his eyes red.

Long Yue shook her head gently, "I’ll be fine, really..."

She struggled to get up from the bed, and unexpectedly, "thud," something fell, hitting the ground with a dull sound.

Both Long Yue and Li Qingmu were startled, looking down to see that it was a sachet that had fallen.

The sachet was something Long Yue had brought from Dazhou and was given to her by Duanmu Nan.

She carefully picked up the sachet, gently brushing off the dust.

Li Qingmu didn’t know the sachet’s origin and thought it was just something Long Yue carried as a keepsake, so he said, "Lie back. Later, I’ll kill them if I have to!"

Li Qingmu’s eyes were red with anger as he spoke!

Those bastards, beasts, had imprisoned Yue’er in such a damp, dark place, worsening her already fragile health. Li Qingmu had been holding in his anger and just wanted to vent it!

It was the first time he truly wanted to kill someone!

"A Mu, don’t rush, don’t act hastily!"

Long Yue grabbed her husband’s hand, signaling him not to get emotional, and then carefully opened the sachet.

She remembered her master saying that if she ever encountered an unsolvable problem, she should look at the sachet he’d given her.

Now, she was indeed facing an unsolvable problem.

The sachet opened to reveal a stack of papers, each with writing on it. Long Yue glanced at them and showed a strange expression.

Could it be? Is Master a god? Can he foresee the future?

"What’s the matter?"

Seeing Long Yue’s unusual expression, Li Qingmu asked worriedly.

"A Mu, see for yourself!"

Long Yue pulled out one of the papers from the sachet and handed it to Li Qingmu.

Li Qingmu looked at it, and his expression became indescribably strange.

"Hey, what’s going on with you two? What’s with the expressions? Tell us quickly!"

Broken Jade ran in from outside, urging them. The enemy was getting closer, probably only half an incense stick’s time away. What were they hesitating about?

"There’s a hidden passage in this cave; we can use it to escape."

"Oh?"

Both Broken Jade and Zhe Feng were stunned, looking incredulous.

"No time to explain; let’s hurry and open the hidden passage."

After saying this, Li Qingmu got up and went to the head of Long Yue’s bed. Underneath, there was a recessed button.

After grasping the button, he turned it three times to the left and three times to the right, revealing the hidden passage.

Sure enough, after Li Qingmu completed these turns, a "rumbling" sound echoed, and under Long Yue’s bed, an opening appeared!
