Could ancient corpses move in a roundabout way to deceive people?
This was naturally impossible; those fellows were all controlled by Zu Shen.
"His target is the Peach Blossom Hotel?"
Ling Feng's eyes narrowed. For some inexplicable reason, his heart began to pound wildly. Releasing the person in his grasp, he accelerated the car.
Just as Ling Feng had finished questioning the man.
Inside the hotel room, Tang Ru stood by the bathroom door and gently knocked.
"Xiao Ran, you've been in the restroom for too long. Come out quickly!"
There was no response!
Tang Ru paused slightly and knocked a few more times.
Knock, knock, knock!
"Xiao Ran..."
"Wait!"
Ji Yun Yue suddenly rushed forward, followed closely by Hua Yu Xiao and Lin Si Qi.
"What's going on? Why are you so nervous?"
Tang Ru frowned as Ji Yun Yue attempted to push open the bathroom door, explaining in a low voice.
"Xiao Ran hasn't slept well these past two days. She might have fallen asleep while using the restroom. Don't be so rough; you'll scare her!"
Ji Yun Yue was blocked by Tang Ru, but her beautiful eyes were fixed on the bathroom door.
Then, her eyes widened suddenly, and she said sternly to Tang Ru, "She's not in there!"
"What?"
Upon hearing this, the others were simultaneously shocked. Then, Ji Yun Yue kicked open the bathroom door!
As expected, the room was empty. Where was Ling Xiao Ran's figure?
Now, Tang Ru was completely flustered. She quickly opened the glass door of the adjacent bathroom and called out anxiously, "Xiao Ran! Xiao Ran..."
After calling out twice, Tang Ru sensed a gust of cold wind blowing in from above.
Immediately, Tang Ru exclaimed, "The window! The window of this bathroom has been opened. It's so small... Could Xiao Ran have climbed out from here?"
"No way! This is the sixth floor!"
Lin Si Qi's face turned extremely pale, and she covered her mouth in horror!
Hua Yu Xiao was about to go and check.
Ji Yun Yue had already leaped up, her hand brushing against a protruding screw head on the window.
Then, a piece of a nightgown was revealed to their sight.
Seeing this, Lin Si Qi immediately cried out, "It's Xiao Ran's nightgown..."
With that, Lin Si Qi's eyes rolled back, and she fainted from sheer anxiety!
Hua Yu Xiao quickly supported Lin Si Qi, while Tang Ru became even more panicked, repeatedly blaming herself!
"This is terrible, it's all my fault, all my fault! I should have gone to the restroom with Xiao Ran!"
Ji Yun Yue's expression turned icy. She jumped down from the window, brushing past Tang Ru, and said coldly, "What's the use of blaming yourself now? Xiao Ran is already gone!"
"Then, then what should we do?" Hua Yu Xiao's voice trembled with nervousness.
Tang Ru gritted her teeth, eager to rush out, "Find her, quickly get someone to search!"
Ji Yun Yue grabbed Tang Ru, stopping her.
"Don't you think things are chaotic enough? Anyone can go, but you cannot!"
"Why?" Tang Ru exclaimed, her eyes blazing at Ji Yun Yue!
Ever since Ji Yun Yue arrived, Tang Ru felt as if the latter had been targeting her. This feeling made Tang Ru quite displeased.
Ji Yun Yue, however, cast a cold glance at Tang Ru.
"Because you're carrying two lives now. If you can tell me clearly that the child in your belly is not Ling Feng's, and you want to rush out now, I won't stop you!"
"You, how did you know..."
Tang Ru's eyes widened in astonishment.
Ji Yun Yue walked straight out and, as she brushed past Hua Yu Xiao, casually said, "Hua Yu Xiao told me!"
Tang Ru was even more astonished, looking at Hua Yu Xiao. She then remembered that Hua Yu Xiao had tried to feel her pulse earlier.
Because Tang Ru had been constantly retching, she had still cautiously avoided Hua Yu Xiao's actions.
However, Tang Ru hadn't expected that just a momentary pulse-feeling action would allow Hua Yu Xiao to confirm she was pregnant?
Hua Yu Xiao also looked embarrassed, shaking her head repeatedly, "I was just guessing."
Tang Ru's mind was in a mess. So what if she was pregnant with Ling Feng's child?
Now that Ling Xiao Ran was lost, Ling Feng would never forgive her!
Responsibility?
Ling Feng would likely not take responsibility for her, Tang Ru, at all!
"No, I must go out and find Xiao Ran!"
Tang Ru was so anxious she was about to cry. She knew she absolutely could not lose Ling Feng, so she had to find Ling Xiao Ran.
However, after taking just two steps, she was intercepted by Ji Yun Yue again.
"It's useless. Xiao Ran has been gone for such a short time, but I've already searched the surroundings. There's no trace of her!"
"You, what do you mean by that?" The more confused Tang Ru became, the more anxious she grew.
"I mean, an ordinary little girl wouldn't have such speed to evade the detection of the surrounding Wu Gu practitioners and disappear so quickly!"
Ji Yun Yue said coldly, her beautiful eyes filled with icy killing intent.
"Unless she was taken away!"
"That's impossible. If someone had approached, wouldn't Li Tian Jiao have noticed?"
Tang Ru directly raised an objection. She had heard Ling Feng say that Li Tian Jiao was here and wouldn't let anyone attack.
Ji Yun Yue nodded, having also ruled out this possibility.
"Then there's only one last possibility: Xiao Ran was controlled!"
"Controlled? By whom?"
Tang Ru pressed.
Ji Yun Yue took a deep breath, "I suspect it might be the Zu family's soul control technique! Only this kind of Wu Gu sorcery can allow a little girl to unleash her potential and escape unnoticed!"
"So, even if we chase now, we won't find her!"
Ji Yun Yue concluded with a definitive statement.
At this moment, Lin Si Qi had woken up from her fainting spell, sobbing, "Wuwu, what should we do? Xiao Ran... If Ling Feng finds out about this, he'll go crazy!"
Ji Yun Yue took a deep breath.
"But, do you have any better solutions? Now, we can only let him know about this!"
With that, Ji Yun Yue dialed Ling Feng's phone.
The three women beside her instinctively wanted to stop Ji Yun Yue, but Ji Yun Yue's gaze forced them back!
"If you make a mistake, you have to bear the consequences. We failed to protect Xiao Ran. Even if he cruelly takes my life, I accept it!"
As Ji Yun Yue finished speaking, Ling Feng's phone was answered!
"What is it?"
Ling Feng had already arrived downstairs. Indeed, many ancient corpses had appeared, engaging in fierce battles with a large number of Wu Gu practitioners. Li Tian Jiao, however, was observing everything without intervening.
Ji Yun Yue's call came too abruptly, and Ling Feng felt a sense of unease!
"Xiao Ran is lost!"
