That day, Qi Yue rode Lightning, speeding like a gust of wind, charging straight for Gemidu City.
Halfway through the journey, Lightning suddenly stopped in its tracks, insistently circling the same spot.
Qi Yue knew something was amiss and immediately pulled back three miles to find a concealed spot to take a closer look.
At that moment, she was puzzled, wondering who had gone to such great lengths to set such a large trap in the valley to ambush her.
If it were not for Lightning's spirit, she might have really fallen for it.
The first thing that came to her mind was not Huangfu Nan.
But the overwhelming power of heaven and earth that followed was too familiar, and she immediately remembered the situation in the Liu Residence's Bamboo Garden.
Then, associating it with the matter mentioned in the book Huang Zai'an had handed over, she vaguely understood.
—Zhao Xiyan sending her away, hoping she would be safe, was not entirely unreasonable.
