CHAPTER 362: CHAPTER 362

"That joke was indeed a bit cold, sorry about that..." Chen Muxue said, shivering involuntarily.

"Something’s not right, it’s really cold, it suddenly got colder." Lin Qing wrapped her arms around herself, rubbing furiously.

Cen Lizhui frowned slightly, looking at the Crown Prince, but the Crown Prince who was lying there looking fine just moments ago, seemed to suddenly emit a bone-chilling coldness.

"What’s going on?!" Chen Muxue also noticed the Crown Prince’s abnormality, hurriedly inspecting the Jade Pendant, but it wasn’t the problem of the Jade Pendant. Could it be the Great Nourishing Pill? But that’s not possible, she had taken it too, no matter how much side effect it had, it wouldn’t cause such a scene!

"That person has started again." Cen Lizhui said coldly, forming a gesture with his hand, and suddenly, hundreds of Thousand Paper Cranes emerged out of nowhere, as if they possessed Life Force, scattering in all directions, flying towards various locations.

Watching the flight of the Thousand Paper Cranes outside, they immediately noticed that many of the cranes were being shot down as soon as they flew out.

Chen Muxue focused her attention, finally pointing in one direction: "Look quickly, the cranes flying in that direction are being shot down the fastest!"

The group looked at each other, nodded to one another, and immediately ran in that direction.

Yan Luan paused for a moment, but still silently stayed by the Crown Prince’s bedside.

With the palace in such chaos, no one should be paying attention to them, right? Moreover, with their combined strength, they should be able to deal with most troublemakers, as long as they don’t encounter...

It wasn’t that she didn’t try to keep them, it’s just that these people didn’t give her time for that.

Chen Muxue was amazed at the speed she could achieve under the propulsion of Spiritual Power. Although she had self-taught this knowledge from books, there were seldom opportunities to actually apply it.

Running now, feeling the wind whistling past her ears, she felt both novelty and inexplicable joy...

Soon, she associated this with the joy of a dog sticking its head out of a moving car. Chen Muxue stumbled, almost falling to the ground, but fortunately, she adjusted just in time.

The group chased after the few remaining Thousand Paper Cranes in that direction. The further they went, the more distant the chaos of the Eastern Palace seemed, as if everything was gradually calming down, even becoming eerily silent, making them feel something wasn’t quite right.

They continued to follow until the last Thousand Paper Crane was shot down, and the group gradually stopped, beginning to cautiously observe their surroundings.

Chen Muxue stepped back, avoiding Lin Qing who approached her: "What are you doing?"

"It’s just... being here feels safer." Lin Qing, under Cen Lizhui’s deliberate tugging, reluctantly left the protection range of the iron pot in Chen Muxue’s hand.

Seeing Lin Qing switch to staying with Cen Lizhui, Chen Muxue immediately became more stiff and tense, as if a voice inside her was shouting, "Don’t come any closer!"

She didn’t want him to detect any Demonic Qi or evil presence, fearing she would be hunted by the Immortal Supervision Bureau.

Remembering being hunted by the Immortal Supervision Bureau, Chen Muxue suddenly recalled that the original character in the book indeed had such an experience, making her even more vigilant, and she moved five meters to the side on the spot.

Cen Lizhui: "?"

Chen Muxue, righteous and solemn: "Men and women shouldn’t touch each other. It’s better to keep a distance."

Cen Lizhui looked at Chu Wuyi and Lin Qing, who silently hid behind Chen Muxue and were almost touching her, and was left speechless.

"What are you doing here?" At this moment, a familiar voice rang out.
