Chapter 598 I'm Not Afraid With You By My Side

When it was time to prevent the target from escaping, Murphy ordered the elven guards to surround the paper workshop to prevent the people inside from escaping.

Murphy rushed into the paper workshop with the remaining elf guards. Bai Di transformed into his human form and followed Murphy with Huanhuan in his arms.

The inside of the paper mill was no different from before. Through Huanhuan's instructions, Murphy found the golden hair and bracelet in the corner. He said, "This is indeed Doris' bracelet."

He ordered the guards to immediately search the paper mill and not miss any clues.

Huanhuan looked around and asked curiously, "Where are Shuang Yun and Xue Ling?"

Bai Di walked back and forth. Suddenly, he squatted down and knocked on the floor. "It's hollow down here."

They looked around, but they still couldn't find the switch to open the basement. In the end, Bai Di simply punched the floor hard. With a loud bang, he actually punched a large hole in the floor!

Bai Di was the first to jump. When he was sure it was safe, he extended his hand and gestured for Huanhuan to jump.

Huanhuan jumped down carefully and landed in Bai Di's arms.

Bai Di caught her steadily.

He tucked her hair behind her ear and asked gently, "Are you afraid?"

Huanhuan approached him. "I'm not afraid with you by my side."

Looking at her obedient behavior, Bai Di kissed her on the lips.

Murphy, who had jumped down after Huanhuan, happened to see this scene. His expression couldn't help but darken.

Bai Di noticed the change in Murphy's expression, but he didn't point it out. "We'll lead the way," he said. "Stay close behind."

Murphy agreed.

The guards jumped down one after another. The narrow and dark tunnel was filled with people.

Bai Di walked in front with Huanhuan in his arms. Beasts were born with night vision. His pupils dilated in the darkness, and he could see the path ahead.

The elves didn't have night vision as good as the beasts. In order to make it easier to walk, they had to light torches.

The group walked down the tunnel.

At the end of the corridor was a large room with several cages. As soon as Huanhuan saw these cages, she immediately said, "This is where I saw those missing elven girls."

Hearing this, Murphy immediately led the guards to open the cage and look for the missing elves.

A total of five elven girls were missing. Four of them had been eaten by Cynthia. Only one was still alive.

The guards picked up the dying elf girl and prepared to bring her back for treatment.

Huanhuan looked around. "Where are they?"

Cynthia and Cyril were gone, and there was no sign of Shuang Yun, Xue Ling, or the black dragon.

Bai Di quickly found an open door. "They must have left this way. Let's chase after them and take a look."

Murphy agreed. He asked two guards to send the elf girl back to Old Milo so that he could heal her. The others continued to follow him.

They walked through the back door and found another tunnel. It was dark inside, and they couldn't see anything clearly.

Murphy, who was in front, raised his torch and advanced carefully by the light.

This time, the tunnel was not straight. After a few steps, there was a bend. After three consecutive bends, two forks appeared in front of them.

Murphy stood at the forks, not knowing which way to go.

Huanhuan said slowly, "Let me down."

She told Bai Di to put her down, then summoned Little Green. "Help me scout the way," she said to it.

The green mutated creeper nuzzled her palm, then split into two vines that quickly grew along the rock walls. In the blink of an eye, the creeper vines had already gone deep into the tunnels.

Everyone stood still and waited.

Huanhuan wanted to see what was going on in the depths of the tunnel through the creepers, but all she could see was darkness. She was not a beast and did not have strong night vision. Without lighting equipment, she could not see the environment clearly in the dark.

Helpless, she gave up on observing the situation herself. She hoped Little Green would bring her good news.

After a long time, the mutated creeper finally stopped growing. Huanhuan felt the vines in her hand move. She quickly asked, "What's wrong?"

"Master, I found them."

"Take us there."

Huanhuan and the others continued forward. Many more turns and forks appeared behind the tunnel, but because of Little Green's guidance, they didn't have to worry about getting lost at all. Their journey was very smooth.

In the end, they found Shuang Yun and Xue Ling deep in the tunnel.

Both sides were surprised.

Shuang Yun asked, "Why are you here?"

Huanhuan touched the creeper in her hand. "Little Green brought us here. Why are you here? Where are Little Black and Cynthia?"

Speaking of this, Shuang Yun was especially angry. "That old woman is too cunning. She deliberately manipulated Yun Hui into pestering us. She then took the opportunity to escape with Cyril. By the time we got rid of Yun Hui and went after them, we couldn't find them."

"Then Little Black..."

Xue Ling didn't look happy either. "Later, he ran away when we weren't looking. He probably went to look for Cynthia."

Bai Di thought for a moment. "With your and Shuang Yun's strength, Yun Hui and Cyril wouldn't be your match. Why did you let them escape?"

"In addition to them, Xing Chen was there. I had to divert my attention to deal with Xing Chen, so Cynthia took advantage of the situation."

Bai Di winced at the name Xing Chen. "Why is he here?"

Xue Ling did not answer.

Bai Di seemed to sense his silence and immediately turned to Huanhuan.

Huanhuan smiled guiltily. "He followed me to the dawn continent."

"I see," Bai Di said, understanding the situation. "He hasn't given up on you."

Huanhuan felt sad. "Yes, that guy's obsession is too deep. He won't let me go even if he dies."

"Don't be afraid. With us around, Xing Chen won't dare to touch you."

"Mhm."

Xue Ling was powerful to begin with. Coupled with the increase in Bai Di's and Shuang Yun's strength, the three of them were not afraid of Xing Chen.

Murphy refused to give up. He sent people to search the tunnels again, but they still couldn't find Cynthia and the others. This matter could only come to an end for the time being.

Huanhuan's family returned to their residence. She told them the details of what had happened after she was kidnapped. Murphy listened in too.

After hearing what she had to say, Murphy looked thoughtful. "I did hear that my mother had a sister, but everyone said that the princess died a long time ago. I don't remember ever seeing the princess either. I didn't expect her to still be alive."

Not only was she alive, but she was also resentful and had caused such a huge mess.

The missing persons case had been solved, but the murderer had escaped. Murphy ordered people to search the entire mountain, but they found nothing.

It seemed that Cynthia and the other two had left Elven God Mountain.
