Half an hour later, Muyan opened the door. With one hand supporting her waist and the other holding her belly, she then slowly and carefully walked out of the run-down house.

Judging from her movements, you might think she was a very gentle mother.

But behind her, through the door that was just opened, there were bodies all over the floor.

All their eyes were wide open, revealing only endless fear, pain and despair, and none of them had closed their eyes.

As if they had seen the most terrible, relentless part of hell.

Jun Muyan didn’t look back at the bloody scene; she just tossed a lit torch behind her.

A blazing fire began to burn in the brilliant sun.

The rising, thick smoke flew high in the sky, covering the sky above the house with dark clouds.

By the time a group of men in black arrived on horseback, the place had been burned to scorched earth and no bodies were visible.

Several men in black looked at each other with fear, completely speechless, and they all saw the panic and disbelief in each other’s eyes.

Right at that moment, a white horse carrying a woman ran over as quick as a flash.

The woman looked slender. She was wearing a purple dress, a bamboo hat, and a veil over her face. They could vaguely see her pretty facial features.

At the sight of the ashes and ruins, the woman’s gloomy and cold voice was heard. “What happened? Where’s the fetus?”

“Sect… Sect Master, I don’t know how this happened. It was supposed to be absolutely safe…”

“Idiot!” The woman raised her whip high and struck them hard. She didn’t stop until she had vented her anger on them through several fierce whips, then she gritted her teeth and said, “Find her. Even if she’s dead, dig up her body and bring it to me!”

“Yes, Sect Master!”

After a moment, several men in black hurried back and reported: “Sect Master, the pregnant woman’s body isn’t inside.”

“You’re saying she escaped?”

“Rest assured, Sect Master. We didn’t have anyone stationed around this house, but we did block the mountain road. If that woman really ran away, she will never escape the mountain.”

The veiled woman clutched her reins tightly, revealing a gloomy face under the veil.

Had she not been afraid of revealing that it was her who wanted the immortal fetus, she would’ve come to take it herself.

She thought Jun Muyan was just a young girl and nothing could possibly happen.

But she didn’t expect…

“Search! Search the entire place thoroughly!” the woman said ferociously. “Even if you need to dig three feet deep, you’ll find this woman and her baby for me!”

“Yes, Sect Master!”

…

After Jun Muyan left the run-down house, she didn’t escape beyond the mountains as the woman expected.

Instead, she turned around and headed into the remote mountains.

The deeper she went into the mountains, the thicker the trees became.

Layers of accumulated leaves had decayed bit by bit, and with the infiltration of the rain, they slowly turned into a swamp.

There were also countless poisonous insects, snakes and mice, and even unknown exotic beasts that could rival yellow-level warriors in the forest.

No one would’ve guessed that Jun Muyan would go deep into the mountains…

Because she was a weak, pregnant woman, and the only road for her if she walked into this dense forest was a dead end.

But Jun Muyan looked very calm. She stepped out with a heavy and slow pace which was also very determined.

Awoo—! A roar came from in front of her.

The leaves shook, and out sprang a huge leopard with its green, greedy eyes ferociously staring at Muyan, who was covered with blood all over.
