Chapter 1280: Chapter 1275: With Me Here, You Won't Get LostChapter 1280: Chapter 1275: With Me Here, You Won’t Get Lost
“I’ve sent someone to retrieve it from your study,” Chu Yihan said indifferently, directing Xiao Yu to draw a map of the Xiao family’s grounds to facilitate the actions of the Shadow Guards.
Xiao Yu drew the map, but he said, “For this mission, it would be best if the empress goes.”
“Why?” Chu Yihan frowned.
“My Seventh Brother is still trapped at home by Xiao Muyan. Xiao Muyan will surely cast a spell on him, and only the empress can save him. With him alive in the Xiao family, he can serve as our inside agent.”
A cold look flashed in Xiao Yu’s eyes. Even though his appearance was gaunt and he had lost his former radiance, he still maintained an air of unruffled composure.
Su Yingxue after some thought, “He’s right, we can’t just let Xiao Qingyu be sacrificed in vain. He’s also a valuable asset to us, and moreover, I can take Seventeen with me!”
Her gaze shifted outside the window, where a black figure stood, ready to serve her at any moment.
Chu Yihan reluctantly agreed, but he emphasized, “I will dispatch a squadron of Shadow Guards to protect you from the outside. You must be very careful, avoid a direct conflict with Xiao Muyan, and if you encounter any enchanted corpses, retreat immediately.”
Su Yingxue nodded confidently, “I understand!”
She took the map from Xiao Yu’s hands, who also gave her instructions on how to open his study, a highly intricate process. He reminded her to execute every step with utmost care, because if anything went wrong, the study would seal itself off permanently, and no one except him would be able to open it.
Su Yingxue committed each detail to memory, including the account book and some seals that Xiao Yu wanted her to retrieve, examining them repeatedly.
When she approached Zi Wei with the map, her face was serious and determined, “Seventeen, this trip to the Xiao family is very dangerous, and there’s much to be done. You must be cautious and give it your best effort! The Xiao family’s estate is vast, so we absolutely cannot afford to get lost.”
Zi Wei shook his head, “I won’t.”
He reached out to Su Yingxue for the map. At night, when they snuck into the Xiao family’s domain, he moved with her through the estate with ease, seamlessly avoiding all of the Xiao family’s guards and Xiao Muyan’s spies, knowing precisely when they changed shifts and the number of people on duty. With him, they passed through the Xiao estate like shadows, leaving no trace of their movements—absolute perfection.
Su Yingxue was astonished. For a moment, she felt as if she were the one following Zi Wei.
The sense of security and peace of mind that Seventeen gave her was incredibly strong.
Just like before, when Zi Wei scouted ahead and protected everything for her.
Zi Wei and she landed in front of Xiao Yu’s study, and he turned to her, “This is the place.”
He looked back at Su Yingxue, who seemed to be lost in thought.
Snapping back to reality, Su Yingxue said, “No… it’s nothing. I’ll open the door to the study. You wait here.”
“I will look for Xiao Qingyu,” said Zi Wei. “There won’t be anyone here for the next quarter of an hour.”
Su Yingxue’s eyes widened, “You knew that too?”
Isn’t that too… thoughtful?
Zi Wei said nothing and disappeared before her eyes like a fleeting shadow, leaving Su Yingxue full of admiration.
She turned and opened Xiao Yu’s study; fortunately, Xiao Yu had written down the steps clearly and precisely. Although difficult, she managed to open it, found his seals and several account books in the place he had mentioned, and after packing them all away, she quietly backed out.
Zi Wei was already waiting in the courtyard for her, and when he saw her emerge with the package, he took it from her hands, securing it to himself and holding it close, “Xiao Qingyu is in a secret room at the Northwest Corner.”
Su Yingxue nodded, and together with him, accurately and without mistake, they found Xiao Qingyu.
